Chapter 131 Fifty Plants



"Fifty medicinal herbs, this..."

After hearing Gu Sang's words, Zhao Ning hesitated.

Fifty herbs are no small number. The quality of these herbs is very common; such herbs are generally unavailable even with money. Moreover, they must undergo many screening processes before they can be certified. If they are of poor quality, once discovered, it's a dead end. After all, the names of those herbs have special meanings, and it's generally impossible to mistake them. Even if a mistake is made, it's probably for other reasons. Therefore, they simply dare not use these herbs indiscriminately.

"Isn't that too much?" Gu Sang looked at Zhao Ning and said with a smile.

"No, I don't mean to be disdainful. However, I still want to ask, young lady, since you trust me so much, what makes you so confident that you can guarantee I can help you?"

"Let's discuss this further when my younger brother arrives. For now, let's have some tea and snacks!" Gu Sang said to Zhao Ning, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

"Um."

Seeing Gu Sang's reaction, Zhao Ning didn't insist any further. He nodded and then took out the tea set to prepare tea.

However, while making tea, Gu Sang stood up and said to Zhao Ning, "Since you want to drink tea, sit in the chair over here. I'll make the tea first."

After listening to Gu Sang's words, Zhao Ning nodded and then sat down in the chair.

Gu Sang brewed tea very quickly; in just a few moments, a pot of tea was ready.

"Brother Zhao Ning, how does it taste?" Gu Sang poured two cups of tea and handed one to Zhao Ning.

"Good tea."

Zhao Ning took the teacup from Gu Sang, took a sip of tea, and then gave Gu Sang a thumbs up.

"Hehe, I'm glad you like it."

Hearing Zhao Ning's praise, Gu Sang smiled and said, "Actually, this tea isn't very good. However, this is all the tea I can serve you. It's from out of town and not made by any master. If you don't mind, you can pay for it."

"Pay the bill? No need, no need. This is Miss Gu Sang's kind gesture, and I will naturally not refuse."

"Since Brother Zhao doesn't mind, then I'll gladly accept your offer. Come, Brother Zhao, let's have some tea."

Seeing that Zhao Ning agreed, Gu Sang quickly raised his teacup and said to Zhao Ning, "Come on, Brother Zhao, let's have some tea."

"Dry!"

Zhao Ning also picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp towards Gu Sang.

"Brother Zhao, could you write down the herbs you need on a piece of paper? I'll go find them for you right away. If there's any trouble, I'll have my younger brother handle it personally."

Gu Sang spoke up.

Hearing Gu Sang's words, Zhao Ning nodded and said, "Don't worry, Miss. I have a few sheets of paper here with the names of herbs. You can take a look."

"Alright, Brother Zhao, please wait a moment."

Gu Sang said to Zhao Ning, then turned to the waiter beside her and said, "Come here and take these papers to the inn for me. Remember, you must hand them to the innkeeper yourself."

Okay.

Upon hearing Gu Sang's words, the waiter nodded hurriedly. Then, he walked over to Gu Sang, took the papers from her hand, and turned to leave the private room.

After Gu Sang led Li Rong to Zhao Ning's room, she closed the door.

After Li Rong came in and closed the door, Gu Sang walked to the table, picked up a pen, and began to write.

Although Gu Sang's handwriting is rather messy, it's clear that her calligraphy is indeed quite good. While not particularly beautiful, it's still quite impressive.

After Gu Sang finished writing, she handed the paper to Li Rong and said, "Young Master Zhao, please take a look."

"good."

After listening to Gu Sang's words, Zhao Ning nodded, took the paper Gu Sang handed him, and then finished drinking all the tea in the teacups in front of him. He then poured himself a fresh cup, picked up the paper Gu Sang had given him, and read it carefully.

After he finished reading the paper, he couldn't help but exclaim, "What beautiful handwriting!"

"Thank you for the compliment. If you like, you can come to me again in the future. How about this, if you need anything, just come to me and I'll help you."

Gu Sang said to Zhao Ning with a smile.

"Okay, I've got it."

After hearing Gu Sang's words, Zhao Ning nodded, and then he said to Gu Sang, "Miss, may I leave now?"

"certainly."

"Thank you for your hospitality, young lady. Farewell!" Zhao Ning stood up, cupped her hands in greeting to Gu Sang, and said, "Goodbye."

"Goodbye," Gu Sang replied politely.

Li Rong also stood up, straightened his back, and said, "Young Master Zhao, let me escort you on your way."

"No."

Zhao Ning shook his head, then looked at Gu Sang and said, "Miss, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now. Goodbye!"

"good."

Gu Sang nodded and said.

Zhao Ning didn't care about Gu Sang's polite words. After he finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"Young Master Zhao, please wait."

"Goodbye."

After saying that, Zhao Ning lifted his foot and walked out of the restaurant.

After Zhao Ning's figure disappeared from sight, Li Rong glanced at Gu Sang and said, "Boss Gu, let's go too."

"kindness!"

Gu Sang nodded, and then the two of them left the shop and returned to the restaurant.

Gu Sang and Li Rong returned to the restaurant and had just sat down when Gu Sang's men came over.

"Shopkeeper, what can I do for you?"

"How's the matter I asked you to handle going?"

Gu Sang asked.

"Reporting to the manager, I have written down the names of all these medicinal herbs as you instructed."

After listening to her subordinate's words, Gu Sang nodded, and then she said, "Okay, this task is entrusted to you. Be careful in everything you do, and don't get discovered."

"Yes, I understand."

After hearing Gu Sang's words, the subordinate nodded and said, "I know what to do."

"Alright, go take care of your business."

"Yes, I'll take my leave."

"Wait a minute!" Gu Sang called out to stop his subordinate.

Just as the subordinate was about to turn and leave, Gu Sang suddenly called him back and said, "Remember, this matter must be carried out in secrecy. If you leak even a single word, you're dead. Understand?"

"Understood!"

"Go down!"
