Chapter 27
"Is it because of the Lord?" Ji Mingqing opened his mouth in disbelief. "How could it be because of the Lord?"
Bai Cangze stood by with his ears pricked up, wanting to hear how Ji Mingqing was going to express his gratitude to him.
"Is it really because of the Lord?" Ji Mingqing was incredulous. "How did the Lord know that we sell Lumei Drink here?"
Cui Ding shook his finger and said, "That's wrong. Your Excellency knows everything."
After hearing this, Ji Ming realized that he had said something wrong, so he immediately covered his mouth with both hands, widened his eyes and nodded.
"But the Lord must have tasted it before, so he mentioned it to those around him." Cui Ding smiled and said to Ji Mingqing, "Others will naturally want to try it once they know it's the Lord's favorite flavor."
"You mean, the Lord has been here?" Ji Mingqing was a little surprised. There were so many people coming and going in the restaurant every day. He frantically recalled in his mind the kind of immortal that Cui Ding mentioned, who was "noble and imposing, with an unparalleled aura of coolness." But after thinking about it, he couldn't think of anyone who could deserve such an evaluation.
"Do you know what the Lord looks like?" Ji Mingqing asked curiously, "If you know what the Lord looks like, can you tell me?"
Cui Ding said calmly, "I only saw the Lord from afar on the battlefield, but the Lord's majesty and heroic demeanor have been deeply engraved in my mind."
Listening to Cui Ding's words, Ji Mingqing understood. Cui Ding was probably just a small soldier in the army and would never have the chance to meet the Lord. As for his "heroic appearance" and "imposing manner", they might all be his imagination.
However, Ji Mingqing did not expose it. "I don't know what the Lord looks like." He said to himself. Thinking of the Lord's visit to him, Ji Mingqing felt a little regretful and a little excited.
"Xiao Wan, you said that the Lord has been to my place, so would he remember me?" Ji Mingqing immediately refuted himself after he finished speaking, "No, the Lord definitely remembers me. My memory has improved since I came to the immortal world. The Lord must have a photographic memory."
Thinking of this, Ji Mingqing began to look forward to the future. "So, do you think that when the time comes, will the Lord like the things in my shop and offer to help me fulfill a wish?"
Thinking of this, Ji Mingqing couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. It's better to make more money so that I can give gifts to the Lord later."
"You want to give the Lord a gift?" Cui Ding, who was standing beside him, was curious after hearing this. He subconsciously glanced at Bai Cangze and said, "You don't need the Lord's protection in the fairy world, so why do you want to give the Lord a gift?"
"Only the Lord can help me achieve my wish. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be working so hard every day!"
It’s so nice to be a salted fish. You won’t starve to death in the fairy world. The treatment in Anding Palace is okay. It’s just boring at most.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I plan to make the little train in the next two days."
It is said to be a train, but in fact it just borrows the appearance of a train, and is a world away from those real high-precision trains.
In the past two days, Ji Mingqing has been making several carriages outside the yard in his free time. Currently, these carriages are still in the process of becoming a large box without a lid.
He planned to start with nine carriages, and then add a decorative driver's cab at the front. He had it all figured out: this train only needed the formation to run, so there was no need for a driver's cab. The reason he planned to build a separate driver's cab was...
Add money!
How could any child resist the temptation of being able to sit in the first row and drive a little train around the venue?
Ji Mingqing's plan was very clear, and finally by the evening, all nine carriages were completed. The remaining processes were to install the wheels and paint, which would be completed in a short time.
The next morning, when Ji Mingqing just arrived at the restaurant, he saw Zhao Yu already standing in front of the door waiting for him.
Ji Mingqing hurried forward, thinking that the differences between the people in the Immortal Realm were too great. Some were too lazy to go out, while others were too active to do so.
Cui Ding is, Xu Yihe is, and even Zhao Yu in front of him is. Ji Mingqing even wondered if the three of them had all trained in the same unit?
However, standing in front of Zhao Yu, Ji Mingqing immediately stopped thinking about it. He cleared his throat, gave what he thought was the kindest smile, and said, "Boss Zhao, you're here so early."
"It's okay, I'm used to it. Boss Ji, the scenery here is nice. I have a feeling we will have more cooperation in the future."
After hearing this, Ji Ming couldn't stop laughing, but he still lowered his head and waved his hand modestly, "It's okay, it's okay. No one can predict what will happen in the future."
Zhao Yu smiled and said nothing much, but in fact he already had a plan in mind to make friends with Ji Mingqing. The Lord had specially sent him here to trade. You know, the Lord has not been involved in such matters for many years.
"Let's go. I'll show you the nourishing herbs I planted." Ji Mingqing took Zhao Yu upstairs to a private room. "Boss Zhao, would you like to try some of our Fengxiyuan specialties?"
"Of course. I've been wanting to try the food at your place for a long time. After we finish our discussion, I'm definitely going to have a big meal."
"Okay, okay!" Ji Mingqing was delighted. Regardless of whether Boss Zhao's words were flattery or not, they really touched Ji Mingqing's heart.
Now I feel a little regretful, the restaurant seems to be too small.
However, Ji Mingqing quickly collected his thoughts and handed the storage bag containing the Yang Shen Grass to Zhao Yu. "You can check it out. It's all here."
Zhao Yu took the storage bag and glanced at it casually. Just this one glance made him understand why the Lord had specially sent him here to deal with it.
Before coming, he had thoroughly investigated Ji Mingqing's background. This young immortal, who had been in the fairy world for less than a year, was able to grow so many nourishing herbs while running a restaurant.
There must be some secret that he cannot know.
However, Zhao Yu knew his limits. He did not ask Ji Mingqing about the source of these nourishing herbs, but only evaluated the nourishing herbs themselves.
"The quality of your Yang Shen Grass is very good. Such a large quantity of high-quality Yang Shen Grass is rare. However, due to the value of the Yang Shen Grass itself, I may not be able to give you too much."
After he finished speaking, Zhao Yu paused as if he was calculating how much price he should offer. Even though he only paused slightly, it seemed like a long time had passed in Ji Mingqing's mind.
"I wonder if one of the Eighteen Spiritual Pearls will work." Zhao Yu pondered for a while before saying this.
When Ji Ming heard the price, his eyes lit up, but then he adjusted his breathing and said steadily: "Actually, my target price is twenty spirit beads..." No wonder, he originally thought that it would be good if he could sell it for fifteen spirit beads.
But no matter how much he offers, I always feel uncomfortable if I don't bargain.
After hearing Ji Mingqing's words, Zhao Yu knew that Ji Mingqing was just testing him, and even thought that this person was a little interesting. Who would directly state their own desired price?
"The price of the Yangsheng Grass outside is about fifteen spirit beads. Mr. Zhi's Yangsheng Grass is of good quality, so I gave him eighteen. The twenty you mentioned... is not impossible." Zhao Yu paused slightly, thought for a moment, and then said as if he had made up his mind, "Twenty is twenty. But Mr. Ji, can you give me priority for your goods in the future?"
They actually agreed! Ji Mingqing was a little bit unbelievable. He knew the price of the Yang Shen Grass outside, but it was only twenty spirit beads. Their wholesale price must be lower.
But he was not worried that Zhao Yu would not make money. The Yangshen Grass he had was really good and could definitely be sold at a high price.
"Okay, I'll definitely contact you as soon as I have anything next time, but I hope the news that this thing was grown here won't get out."
"Of course. Even for the sake of the fairy stone, I won't tell anyone else. At the same time, I have added this clause to the contract." Zhao Yu pointed to the contents of the contract for Ji Mingqing to see.
[Neither party may disclose the other party's information without the other party's knowledge]
"This way, we can both restrain each other. You can rest assured, and so can I." In order to reassure Ji Mingqing, Zhao Yu even lied, "Of course, if there are other shopkeepers who want to cooperate with Boss Ji, please help to cover up for them."
Ji Mingqing immediately understood that beneath the peaceful fairyland there were hidden turbulences, and perhaps there was a struggle among the elites of wealthy families and industries.
"Don't worry, if anyone asks, I will never reveal Boss Zhao's name."
The two parties happily reached an agreement. There were about 860 nourishing spirit herbs in Ji Mingqing's storage bag, which earned him nearly 200 fairy beads. Adding them together, he now has almost two fairy stones!
"Can you help me exchange these one hundred fairy beads into fairy stones?" Ji Mingqing and Zhao Yu said.
"Of course." Zhao Yu gave Ji Mingqing a fairy stone. Ji Mingqing played with it lovingly and was even reluctant to put it into the storage bag.
It was not until Zhao Yu took out the goods from his hand that Ji Mingqing reluctantly put them away.
The purchase went much faster. Zhao Yu offered the lowest price and Ji Mingqian paid readily. After payment, the two smiled at each other.
"I'm treating you today, Boss Zhao, please order whatever you want!"
I now have immortal stones.
The author has something to say:
People who have fairy stones are really amazing!
