Yuan Yi saw that the boy actually dared to blackmail him. He would not tolerate this man's bad habits.
"Oh! You're still dreaming! Don't you know you're dreaming? I'll even compensate you with a chicken leg and give you something delicious!
Hurry up, I need to get the medicine! If you delay me, you will suffer the consequences."
Yuan Yi pretended to be ferocious, thinking that he should be able to scare you now.
The result was beyond his expectation. The servant still refused to give in.
"You disturbed my sweet dream. Why couldn't I find you? My big chicken leg is gone just like that."
As the boy was talking, his mouth was still drooling. When he thought of the big chicken leg, his saliva was about to flow out.
Yuan Yi saw that he was still dreaming, and his patience completely ran out. He quickly turned over, stepped over the front desk, and stood right in front of the boy.
"What? Didn't you hear what I said? If you dare to do this to me again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
At some point, Yuan Yi had already drawn his sword and placed it directly against the boy's neck.
The servant felt a chill on his neck, a chill so deep that it seemed to freeze him through, chilling him right to the core.
"Hero! Spare my life! I didn't mean it! I won't ask you to pay for the chicken leg. I was wrong!"
Please spare me, but be careful with your sword and don't bother with me.
I'll get you some medicine right away, see what you need! Oh no! You can have whatever you want."
The servant was so frightened by the sword at his neck that he almost lost his soul. The chicken leg he had just eaten in his dream suddenly disappeared into the sky.
His life is almost in danger now, so why should he eat chicken legs? Even if there really are chicken legs, he will not be able to enjoy them anymore.
"Hmph! You're smart! I won't ask for more from you. I only want what I need.
This is for you, just follow the instructions above, but don’t make the mistake and waste my time again, or I’ll be really rude to you.”
Yuan Yi took out a list with many medicinal herbs on it from his pocket and handed it directly to the servant.
Then he put away his sword and put it into the scabbard.
The servant felt his neck loosen up and immediately relaxed. He took the list obediently and grabbed the herbs on it.
The servant looked at the list carefully, and then kept muttering: "Salvia miltiorrhiza (Salvia miltiorrhiza can treat fever and blood stasis caused by poisoning).
Tianshan Snow Lotus (has miraculous effects of bringing the dead back to life and has a significant effect on detoxification).
"One 300-year-old ginseng plant and a small jar of honey." The servant looked at the list and suddenly remembered something.
Not long ago, someone came to the pharmacy and said that if anyone needed antidote, they could give it to him.
But remember to report to him and get some information at the same time. At that time, the man directly and generously gave him fifty taels of silver.
He said he would give me another fifty taels after the matter was completed. Could it be that the person now was the one he mentioned? The servant slowly calmed down and pretended that nothing had happened.
"Yes! See if there is one? Just catch it for me according to the instructions. Hurry up! Don't waste time."
Yuan Yi began to urge the servant. If he was not mistaken, the servant's expression changed after seeing the list of medicinal materials.
Although he quickly covered it up, it still didn't escape Yuan Yi's eyes.
In order to avoid more bad things, Yuan Yi would not take the initiative to provoke that person if he could avoid causing trouble.
"Oh? How long has the person at home been poisoned? Is it serious?"
The servant pretended to ask casually while preparing the medicine, his eyes occasionally glancing towards Yuan.
"Shut your mouth, don't ask what you shouldn't ask! Don't say what you shouldn't say! Don't do what you shouldn't do."
Yuan Yi saw the servant's probing look, so he warned him a few words.
"No! No! I'm just curious. This Tianshan Snow Lotus is quite precious.
I just sold it a while ago. Why don’t you look elsewhere? I only have one two-year-old ginseng plant. Do you want it?
The servant saw that he could not get any information, and he did not prepare the medicine as carefully as before.
He didn't know whether the Tianshan Snow Lotus existed, and even if it did, he was too lazy to look for it, so he just said no.
Yuan Yi took the opportunity to observe the surroundings of the pharmacy and found that there was no one else inside, so he relaxed his vigilance a little.
After all, Tianshan Snow Lotus is precious, so it is normal not to have it.
Yuan Yi didn't think too much about it and simply didn't make things difficult for him.
"Okay! Forget it if you don't have it! I want the ginseng, just pack it up for me. How much do you think it will cost in total?"
When Yuan saw that he had almost packed all the herbs, he walked forward to check them.
He opened the herbs one by one and sniffed them carefully.
After observing for a while and finding that there was no problem, he took out a purse from his pocket.
"The total is nine hundred taels, and one ginseng plant is three hundred and fifty taels."
The servant tapped the beads in his hand and quoted a price that was much higher than the market price.
When Yuan Yi saw the medicinal herbs in front of him and heard the price he quoted, he instantly became uneasy.
This price doesn't sound reasonable. Could it be that this guy was deliberately trying to cheat him?
"What did you say? Nine hundred taels? Do you think I don't know the value of it? Think carefully before you speak. Be careful, the sword in my hand has no eyes."
Yuan Yi took out his sword and placed it heavily on the table.
The servant felt that Yuan Yi was serious about it, so he didn't dare to really make this dirty money. He pretended to calculate it again.
"Oh! No! I calculated it wrong just now! I calculated it wrong. The total is five hundred and ten taels of silver. Just give me five hundred taels."
The servant finally quoted a reasonable price, and he really didn't dare to make a profit of one yuan.
Yuan Yi put away the sword and took out a few silver bills from his purse.
Then he pulled out a silver note with a face value of five hundred taels and threw it directly into the boy's face.
"Open your eyes wide and look carefully. This banknote is worth five hundred taels of silver and is from the Huitong Bank.
Don’t say later that I didn’t receive enough. I’ll give you the other ten taels of silver. I don’t owe you anything.
You don't have to give it to me. Save this little money. Next time I see you shouting out prices, be careful with your tongue.
Whether it can be saved depends on whether you can control your mouth."
Yuan Yi had a vicious look on his face. This time he was not pretending, but really wanted to scare him.
When the servant heard that it was from the Huitong Money House, he suddenly realized that the person in front of him was not someone he could afford to offend.
That Huitong Bank was a royal merchant! No one should mess with it. Anyone who could deposit money there was either rich or noble.
The Huitong Bank wasn't a place where anyone could deposit money. If you offended someone there, you'd be punished, even if you didn't die.
The boy's face suddenly showed a look of horror.
