The effect of this tea is an upgraded version of the powder she used.
I don’t believe that the madam can still cause trouble like this!
Lu Yunxi was very efficient. He sneaked into the madam's room that night, waited until her body was fully recovered, and then replaced the pot of tea.
However--
Even though she was very fast and the madam was very uncomfortable, the human trafficker had already arrived at Fengyue Tower.
The people had already arrived, and no matter how uncomfortable the madam was, she was too lazy to look for someone else. She simply pulled out the girls who were about to be sold and brought them to the man.
The trafficker glanced at the crying girls, frowned, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Are these the only ones? Fine, I'll take them away."
As he spoke, he took out a dozen copper coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the madam's hand.
Although the madam was sweltering with heat, she still clung to the wall, enduring the dizziness and saying, "No, these copper coins are too little! There are some pretty girls among these girls, you have to give more!"
"We agreed to charge per head. These girls won't fetch a high price even if we sell them. Don't even think about selling more." The human trafficker was also a little dissatisfied.
"Those girls before weren't pretty, so you can take them away. These pretty ones don't have the same price!" The madam insisted, gritting her teeth. If these pretty girls weren't so bad at talking and constantly irritated customers, she wouldn't have sold them so easily.
She had spent quite a bit of money on it! Selling it for a few coins would be a huge loss!
The madam and the trafficker argued with each other, becoming increasingly angry. At one point, they suddenly started fighting.
The crying little girls nearby were stunned when they saw this scene.
"You damned bastard! It's fine if it's just ordinary girls, but these are so pretty, and you want to buy them for the same price? You're dreaming!"
"You bitch! You agreed to sell these people to me at this price, and now you suddenly want to raise the price! You're asking for death! I want to see where you can sell them to if I don't buy these girls?!"
"You're just a human trafficker, yet you're so arrogant! If I hadn't sold you people, you probably wouldn't even be able to afford food!"
"You old woman, you're already so old, yet you still dress so strangely, do you really think you're a fairy?!"
“…”
The two quarreled more and more fiercely, their eyes turned bloodshot, and they scratched each other until they bled, but they still didn't stop.
Watching them fighting with hair pulling and face scratching, the little girls sniffed and stood there in a daze.
Time passes by little by little.
The fight between the madam and the traffickers finally ended.
The madam was feeling unwell the whole time. She tried to open her eyes wide but couldn't hold them open. After a few seconds, she fell to the ground. However, her body was not weak. She was in better condition than the human trafficker. The human trafficker was thin and weak. He couldn't stand the torture and fainted with his eyes rolled back.
Seeing the two of them lying on the ground covered in wounds, the little girls widened their eyes and were a little at a loss for a moment.
Ling'er mingled with the crowd, her head lowered. No one noticed the surprise in her eyes. When she was particularly scared today, Qing'er calmly told her not to be afraid, that she would be fine.
And this is what happened.
Fengyuelou's mother had never quarreled so fiercely with a human trafficker.
Thinking about how Qing'er looked so confident that everything would be fine last time... Ling'er pondered secretly.
Could Qing'er be the legendary hero? Did she sneak into Fengyue Tower just to investigate something? Mom and the traffickers just started fighting. Did they use some strange drug?
Thinking of the story told by the storyteller, Ling'er's eyes suddenly became bright.
at the same time.
Lu Yunxi squatted outside Fengyue Tower, keeping an eye on his surroundings, ready to rescue the person as soon as the trafficker left.
However, after standing there stupidly for a long time, Ling'er and the others did not show up.
She was full of questions and wondered if the information she had heard was wrong.
Isn’t the human trafficker coming today?
She stood there for a while and was about to go look for someone when she saw Ling'er and the others coming over.
Lu Yunxi's eyes sharpened, and he was about to take action, but he found that there were no strangers among this group of girls.
She looked carefully and noticed that the girls were actually carrying the madam and another man and were walking towards a backyard somewhere.
Ling'er came over excitedly when she saw her, lowering her voice: "Qing'er! This time, it's really thanks to you! If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we would have been sold to the mountains."
Lu Yunxi: ? ?
No! She hasn't made a move yet? Did she make a move in her dream?
*
A few days later.
When the madam and the trafficker woke up, they were in much better spirits and started discussing the girls again.
Even Lu Yunxi admired him!
She did not take action against the human trafficker, but she herself became ill due to the depression and the quarrel with others, while the brothel owner drank tea and felt hot and cold at times.
Although both of them had their own discomfort, they still insisted on selling the little girl.
Of course Lu Yunxi wouldn't let them do this.
She went to the madam's room in person and prepared to talk to her.
"Huh?! You said to keep those girls here?!" The madam was shocked, picked her ears, and looked at her in disbelief.
"Yes, Fengyue Tower is short of people. There are already enough beautiful girls, but there is a shortage of people to serve tea and run errands. You can keep them and let them do these things." Lu Yunxi persuaded her slowly.
Based on the conversations she heard between the brothel owner and the traffickers, she knew that after these people were sold, they were basically sold to the deep mountains and forests to become wives of men in their forties or fifties.
