Jiang Xiaoxiao followed Hao Zhigang around for a while.
They really bought quite a few things.
Most of the herbs on the recipe were bought, except for the high-end Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus. According to Hao Zhigang, you can only ask about that at a shop, but it’s quite expensive.
One plant might cost ten thousand.
Hao Zhigang, himself from a family of Ancient dicine, couldn’t possibly not understand the market.
Their family had bought Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus before, ten thousand was last year’s price. Hao Zhigang hasn’t checked this year’s price.
The great-grandmother said, in the future, if the Hao family’s Youthful Appearance Pill doesn’t co out, they can’t afford the raw materials.
One Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus alone could crush their family.
The current Hao family is already on the decline; ten thousand?
They really can’t co up with it.
Jiang Xiaoxiao clicked her tongue, good heavens, one Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus costs ten thousand.
The money in her pocket isn’t enough to buy even a few herbs.
And this is just the ordinary Youthful Appearance Pill. If it’s the Rejuvenation Pill, wouldn’t the ingredients be sky-high in price?
Her thinking was too naïve; when did herbs not worth tens or hundreds of thousands?
Jiang Xiaoxiao was on the verge of tears.
What kind of divine place is this?
Almost the most luxurious place in the world.
What can Jiang Xiaoxiao do?
The store clerk looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao with her troubled face, and at Hao Zhigang with his look of despair, imdiately displaying a look of disdain.
Poor thing!
Unhappily slamd the lid of the Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus box shut, "Are you buying or not? If not, don’t waste ti here, really wasting my ti."
With a cold snort, prepared to put away the box.
Jiang Xiaoxiao froze, dammit, how long has it been since soone treated her with such disrespect?
Now it feels like the more she mixes, the more she regresses.
Coming to this damned place, she has beco a small fry in the dust.
A re store clerk dares to give her attitude, it was truly infuriating.
A man in a suit walked out, "Xiao Yue, what are you doing? What kind of attitude is this? How can you show such a face to the custors?"
His tone was gentle yet stern, imdiately suggesting a high status here.
The clerk imdiately forced a smile, "Manager Liu, you’ve misunderstood, it wasn’t showing an attitude, it’s that woman, clearly not having the money to buy the Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus, yet adamantly posing like she’s going to buy, making take it out and show her for a long ti.
You see her, looking left and right, asking thoroughly, I explained very clearly, but still not buying, if you can’t afford it, don’t co in, I’m unhappy because I’m worried about the loss of the snow lotus’s efficacy, not because of a bad attitude."
Hao Zhigang looked full of resentnt.
Damn it, twisting the facts upside down.
The woman just now was clearly looking down on the poor, yet suddenly turned it to them bullying the store.
"What did you say? Who can’t afford it?"
Back when the Hao family was prosperous, they never endured such humiliation.
They even bought countless Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus, although it was all acting as an errand boy for his grandmother, but who dared to say the snow lotus’s efficacy was wasted?
Now it’s really like the tiger down on luck being bullied by a dog.
A re store clerk dared to speak insultingly.
The clerk saw Hao Zhigang’s attitude, eyes bulged.
"Manager Liu, did you see it clearly this ti? It’s really not looking for trouble, this person is so fierce, clearly guilty. Why are you shouting? Just because your voice is loud ans you’re right?
I’m telling you, can you afford it? If you can’t buy it, admit it, I’m stating the facts."
The clerk was sowhat insulting, sparking a crowd to gather and watch.
"Wow, Hao Zhigang, you’re so poor you only have a small shop sign left on dicine God Street, yet you still dare to co buy a ten thousand snow lotus? No wonder the young lady doesn’t appreciate you, a person must have self-awareness.
Can the Hao family still afford it? You’re fooling a ghost! Your Hao family’s Youthful Appearance Pill is going extinct, right?"
A fat, short man with a big head elbowed his way over, a purse under his arm, looking arrogant, seemingly acquainted with Hao Zhigang.
His belly looked as if he were nine months pregnant, ready to deliver, Jiang Xiaoxiao stifled her laughter, isn’t it just buying a Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus, but it brought about a bloody storm.
"The Hao family?"
Manager Liu asked with aningful intent, is it the Hao family he knows?
Who doesn’t know the Hao family that offended Dr. Zhang Shaojie, chased to extinction by the Zhang family, has long since faded in this city.
The Hao family was still considered a third-rate family, now it practically doesn’t exist.
Is this the descendant of the Hao family?
No wonder looking to buy Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus.
"Zhang Fatty, you stop making sarcastic remarks here, what’s it to you?"
Hao Zhigang was furious; now everyone can step on them once.
But anyone is tolerable, except Zhang Fatty, who couldn’t be tolerated. Zhang Fatty was Zhang Shaojie’s lackey.
Wasn’t it because Zhang Shaojie took a liking to his cousin, pursued her unsuccessfully, and resorted to underhanded ans, forcing their family to ruin?
Now he ended up in such a plight, isn’t it because of the Zhang family?
"Haha, Hao Zhigang, you have guts, then buy it? A ten thousand snow lotus, when your Hao family was at its peak, you’d buy a hundred at once, at that ti your Hao family’s Youthful Appearance Pill attracted countless followers, what about now?
You can’t even buy one?"
The clerk, seeing soone agreeing with him, imdiately adopted a stepmother’s deanor.
"Exactly, so people don’t check if they have that capability. If you have the money to buy, I’ll pay out of my pocket today, selling it to you at a fifty percent discount? Five thousand yuan, selling the Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus at a cabbage price, do you have the money?
Credit card, cash?"
This was just to insult people.
Jiang Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up.
Five thousand, suddenly it’s half-priced.
It’s a pie in the sky.
"A re store clerk dares to make such bold claims, boasting about a fifty percent discount, humph! You’re taking advantage of our ignorance. Once we say we’ll buy, this person will deny it imdiately, and even if you claim you can’t co up with the money, we can’t do anything to you.
Who is truly unable to afford it?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao deliberately fanned the flas, clearly a case of being poor but pretending otherwise, enduring the suffering due to pride.
Zhang Fatty laughed, "Little girl, where did you co from? Surely you’ve never seen the world, but Hao Zhigang really has so skills, being broke yet managing to hook such a beauty, the won around him are each more lively than the other.
But his vision isn’t great. Don’t underestimate these clerks, do you think they’re waiters? Which one of them doesn’t have a decent family background, without savings of ten to twenty thousand, do you think these herbal shops would hire them?
One careless move, and a thousand yuan worth of herbs goes down the drain, all secured with a deposit."
The clerk looked down even more on Jiang Xiaoxiao and Hao Zhigang, his nose upturned in arrogance.
"Understand now? I’ll tell you frankly, I paid a deposit of ten thousand; if I dare to say it, I’ll commit to it, Manager Liu, you heard it, if this young lady really cos up with the money to buy the Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus, I’ll sell it to her at half price.
I’ll cover the remaining difference!"
This was certain that Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others wouldn’t be able to co up with such money.
The clerk dared to be so arrogant, naturally because Jiang Xiaoxiao and Hao Zhigang didn’t look like wealthy people.
In other places, tens of thousands is a sum an ordinary family wouldn’t even dream of.
Even here, an average family couldn’t co up with it.
Not to ntion, the Hao family is long gone, that’s an undeniable fact.
