"You're trying to fool me?" Fan Li roared.
"Why would I lie to you? We're like meat on your chopping block, you can slaughter us whenever you want. Why would I lie to you? Believe it or not!" Sweetie looked aggrieved.
Fan Li looked at her suspiciously, half believing and half doubting, thinking that this girl probably wouldn't have the guts to lie, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
Anyway, it's not for his own use.
Moreover, many Chinese medicine ingredients are indeed strange and disgusting, but they have nice-sounding names. Urine is called "human white", and bat droppings are called "night-shining sand". Thinking about it this way, Fan Li felt that Tian Tian was not lying. If bat droppings can be used as medicine, then human "ten thousand taels of gold juice" should also be able to be used.
"If he dares to lie to me, I'll kill this idiot right now!"
Fan Li brandished his knife, made a threatening remark, and then ordered his men to find ten thousand taels of gold juice.
Sweetie's lips curled slightly. By the time this scoundrel realized he'd been tricked, her brother and the others would definitely be coming after him.

It was late at night, and Sihaoxing still refused to confess anything. Fang Yanming and the others didn't dare to use too strong a method, as they wouldn't be able to explain it to the national team. However, they received news from Fan Li.
“Fan Li didn’t go to the company today, and no one’s at his place either. I don’t know where he and Julie went. They’re not in any of the major hotels in Pingjiang city. If they’ve left Pingjiang, it’ll be troublesome if a fight breaks out,” Fang Yanming said.
“They definitely haven’t left Pingjiang. All the exits from the city are blocked. Unless they take the mountain road, it’s impossible to take two children on the mountain road. There are people checking all the land, water and air routes. It’s not that easy to sneak out. He and Julie are definitely still hiding in Pingjiang, most likely in the suburbs,” Lu Mo analyzed.
Fang Yanming frowned. "The suburbs are troublesome; they won't be easy to find."
"No need to look for her, Fan Li will call us on his own. We just need to wait and see," Lu Mo said confidently.
Fan Li must have taken the risk for the sake of the medical scriptures, so he must take the initiative to contact him.
Lu Mo had only just figured things out. He and Fang Yanming had both misunderstood. Julie might be seeking revenge, but Fan Li definitely wasn't. There was only one reason why a businessman like Fan Li, who prioritized profit over righteousness, would take such a risk: there was a huge profit to be made, and it had nothing to do with personal grudges.
"What about Nasihouxing?" Fang Yanming asked helplessly. The team leaders kept calling to inquire, which was extremely annoying.
"Don't release it yet, it hasn't been forty-eight hours, what's the rush!" Lu Mo sneered.
There's definitely something wrong with Sihaoxing. Find Xiaotong and Tiantian first, then deal with this guy. No matter how high his IQ is, he can't escape the guilty conscience of a thief, and he'll always find a loophole.
The Ye family's house was brightly lit, but no one was sleepy. They were all sighing and complaining. The old lady and Sang Huaiyuan couldn't sleep either, worried about the two children, and kept calling to ask if there was any progress.
"Why hasn't Fan Li called yet? Does he not want to make an exchange?" Ye Qingqing was extremely anxious, worried that Fan Li's purpose was not the medical manual, but just to harm Xiao Tong.
"Don't worry, he'll definitely call back. Just wait a little longer," Lu Mo comforted him.
He glanced at his wrist; it was 10:30 p.m., and many people were still awake, the streets still bustling. He guessed that Fan Li intended to act when it was late at night.
Ruan Yingzi also comforted her, "Don't worry, I asked Li Bansian to calculate it, and he said it was a close call and Xiaotong and Tiantian will be fine."
Ye Qingqing's eyes lit up, and she gripped her hand tightly. "Did Li Wuming really say that?"
How could she forget about this guy? She should have had him do a divination during the day.
"Really, why would I lie to you?" Ruan Yingzi glanced at him, pulled her reddened hand away, and glared at him irritably.
Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still not completely at ease. She needed to see the person in person to feel at ease.
Upstairs, Wuchen and Zhu Zi were together, dressed in night clothes, with Wuchen even wearing a hat.
