Chapter 930: Chapter 929: Tempting Xiao Bai
After a refreshing herbal bath, Wufu felt most of her aches had dissipated, and as Purple Jade helped her comb her hair, she couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
“Bai Xiaobai really knows how to make these herbs work wonders.”
Purple Jade replied, “Well, of course. Just this herbal bath alone costs ten taels of silver. That would be enough for an ordinary farming family to live on for half a year.”
Wufu said, “That’s why I’m poor, lacking money.” She understood well enough that good things naturally cost silver.
“What if we ask Bai Xiaobai to co up with so beauty and whitening formulas, and we make costics to sell? Won’s money is the easiest to earn,” Wufu suddenly suggested with a bright idea.
Purple Jade replied, “You’ll need to persuade him first. The Ghost Doctor is obsessed with researching all kinds of poisons and dicine; who knows if he has the ti?”
“Heh, money makes the ghost push the millstone. How could he refuse? If money doesn’t work, then a good beating should do!” Wufu squinted her eyes.
Purple Jade chuckled lightly. This girl really is a maniac.
Sure enough, when Bai Xiaobai heard Wufu’s request, he imdiately said he didn’t have ti. He had just discovered a new poison and was about to try making an antidote. How could he have ti for whitening stuff? Does she think he’s idle?
“You just co up with the formula, and I’ll treat it as your investnt. How about a ten percent share?” Wufu said, “I’m telling you, if this business takes off, it’ll make a killing. Your future wife fund will be secure.”
“Would the prince not let
find a wife?” Bai Xiaobai sneered, “Not interested.”
“So, when you sweet-talk a girl, do you plan to beg the prince for silver?” Wufu squinted, “Like when you fancy a hairpin to gift your sweetheart, do you want to always ask others for help? That wouldn’t show much sincerity. Besides, would you want sothing your beloved wears to be bought with soone else’s money?”
“Of course that’s not okay!” Bai Xiaobai jumped up, being a man, he had self-respect too.
“Exactly, so the money from this ten percent share ensures you won’t have such worries!” Wufu coaxed him.
Bai Xiaobai saw her showing a fox-like cunning expression and said cautiously, “I’m the Ghost Doctor, I can heal people and make money.”
“But that requires effort, and what if you encounter soone you don’t like; would you still treat them? Now you only need to create a formula, and you can lie back and wait for the silver to roll in.”
“Writing a formula also requires effort, you’re just saying all this to coax .” Bai Xiaobai huffed, “With my dical skill, I can earn a thousand taels of silver by treating just one patient. Can’t I buy a single hairpin with that?”
“So, you’re not willing then.” Wufu squinted dangerously, sharpening her knife.
“You should beg !” Bai Xiaobai grinned proudly.
Wufu sneered, “Fine, I’ll just go tell Ah Jiu to stop supplying you for research. Without his approval, I’d like to see who dares give you materials for your studies.”
“You, you wouldn’t dare! The prince wouldn’t listen to you!” Bai Xiaobai was furious and shocked.
“Just watch if he listens or not!” Wufu laughed, “A few coy looks from
and isn’t it all in the bag?”
“That’s using your charm, you shaless, unscrupulous!”
“The thod doesn’t matter, what matters is its effectiveness!” Wufu humd lightly, pretending to call out loudly, “Ah Jiu…”
“Wait!” Bai Xiaobai imdiately grabbed her and gritted his teeth, “Can’t I just agree? But I want a twenty percent share.”
Wufu bead with delight, patting his shoulder, “Deal. Isn’t it better to be obedient like this from the start, rather than make big sis annoyed with you, it’s exhausting.”
Bai Xiaobai watched her walk into Ah Jiu’s study and gritted his teeth in silent curses, troublemaker!
