Lu Shan smiled and said to Su Li, "Come in!"

Su Li walked in and saw a slightly overweight middle-aged man with a burly man beside him, who gave the impression that he could kill a tiger with one punch.

Lu Shan stepped forward and introduced, "Miss Shi, this is my friend. You can call him Brother Yu. The one next to him is his younger brother. You can call him Yu Xiaoliu."

Then Lu Shan said to the middle-aged man, "This is a business partner of mine, Miss Shi."

After a brief introduction, Su Li explained her purpose for coming.

"Boss Lu, I've come to inquire about medicinal herbs."

Lu Shan looked at Brother Yu and said, "Brother, this is the medicinal herb I mentioned to you last time. I wonder if you are interested?"

Su Li didn't expect that the person Boss Lu asked about last time was him.

What a coincidence! I actually ran into the person in question today.

Brother Yu chuckled and said, "Of course I'll accept it, but I need to check the goods first."

Su Li put down her basket and handed the prepared medicinal herbs to Brother Yu.

"Look, I'm not exaggerating when I say this, the medicinal effects are absolutely top-notch. I picked them all myself on the mountain."

Brother Yu took it, smelled it, looked at it, and then nodded. "Hmm, not bad. But I see that these herbs are quite common. I can only offer you two yuan per kilogram at most."

Su Li felt that growing herbs was more profitable than growing grains.

"Okay, then is it convenient for you to complete the transaction in an hour?"

Brother Yu didn't expect the girl to be in such a hurry; "My convoy isn't here, so I'm afraid it won't work today. But if you have any goods, leave them with Boss Lu first. I'll arrange for someone to come and inspect them, and then I'll give you the money through Boss Lu. Is that alright?"

Su Li naturally agreed, not at all worried that Lu Shan would embezzle her money.

After resolving the matter, Su Li took her leave.

Lu Shan didn't try to keep her. He saw her to the door and whispered, "Be careful on your way home."

Although the words were spoken cryptically, Su Li still understood them.

On the way back, Su Li kept an eye on what was behind her, and sure enough, someone followed her after a short while.

And they followed openly and honestly; "Miss Shi, don't rush off."

Su Li stopped when the burly man called her.

Once the person got closer, she asked, "What did you call me for?"

The burly man said with a stern face, "It's like this, our boss wants to know your address and wants to be friends with you."

“I’m just a black market operator, do you think I’d dare tell you my address?” Su Li didn’t make up any excuses, but said it directly.

I wonder if this "Brother Yu" is trying to fool her like she's an idiot.

The burly man thought Su Li would make up some excuse, but he didn't expect her to just say it directly.

“Our boss thinks your grain is good and wants to talk to you privately. He said he’ll wait for you in the yard up ahead.”

Su Li really didn't want to go, but she had no choice but to do business with other people for her medicinal herbs.

So she nodded.

Su Li sat in the courtyard for about ten minutes before Brother Yu arrived.

As soon as he entered, he said to the burly man, "You have no sense at all. Quickly pour Miss Shi a cup of tea."

Su Li waved her hand and said, "No need, Boss Yu, just tell me why you've come to see me!"

"Miss Shi, you're too kind. You can call me Brother Yu. I stopped you this time because I wanted to ask if you still had any grain."

"Yes, there is, but I've already promised it all to Boss Lu. You know, the most important thing in business is integrity, so you see..."

Su Li's words were clear: she had already promised the grain business to Lu Shan, and if Brother Yu wanted to do it, he could go to Lu Shan; she couldn't break her promise.

“Miss Shi, business is static, but people are dynamic. I can’t control your deal with Boss Lu. But you can do more business with me privately, and I guarantee you’ll pay much more than him.”

"Brother Yu, I'm really sorry, but I'm a very principled person. If I can't keep my promise, I won't be able to sleep at night. I really can't do this business with you. I have a father who's on the verge of death lying in bed, and my younger brother is mentally disabled. I have to go back now, otherwise they'll cause me a lot of trouble. I'm really sorry."

After saying that, she walked outside, and Brother Yu didn't stop her.

Instead, she gave the burly man a look.

Su Li hadn't gone far when she sensed someone following her, and she knew without a doubt it was Old Yu.

Although this person is from the city, he's a ruthless character when it comes to business.

He disagreed with going into the grain business, but unexpectedly, the man started having people follow him.

He really is a cunning old fox.

Su Li walked to a corner and instantly entered the space.

She walked directly out of the space, taking an orange from it and eating it as she went.

The burly man was puzzled; he clearly saw the girl go around the corner, but in the blink of an eye, she was gone.

He looked around but couldn't find anyone, so he went back.

When Brother Yu saw him return, his expression was rather unpleasant; "What? You can't even keep up with a girl?"

The burly man said awkwardly, "Yes, I saw her go around that corner, but when I went there, there was no one there. I looked all over, but I couldn't find her anywhere."

"Fool, she already spotted you back then. This girl is quite cunning. I originally planned to skip Lushan and trade with her directly, but I didn't expect her to be so ungrateful. Now that we've lost her, it will be difficult to find her again."
