But what do friends matter? Businessmen prioritize profits. With money, they can get whatever they want with ease.
This girl casually produces century-old He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum), who knows how much more she has hidden away in secret.
If we can control this girl, will we still have to worry about finding a source of goods?
Liu Zhiqian was certain that Nanzhi could not escape his grasp.
Nan Zhi squinted and looked at him calmly: "Shopkeeper, if you continue like this, I will report you to the authorities."
"Tch," Liu Zhiqian sipped his tea, "Go ahead and report it, as long as it gets out of my Liu Family Pharmacy!"
The blatant threat made Nanzhi truly angry.
There was a crowd gathered at the entrance, but Liu seemed oblivious to them.
"I'd heard that the owner of Liu's Pharmacy was a bully, but I never imagined he could bully even a little girl."
"How shameless!"
Song Li squeezed through the crowd from the periphery and asked, "Uncle, what happened inside?"
In broad daylight, the doors of Song Family Pharmacy were tightly closed, which was unlike Liu Zhiqian's style.
"Sigh, it's all because Song Zhiqian wanted to take advantage of that girl. He locked her inside in broad daylight. He's so old, yet he still has no shame."
Bullying an innocent woman?!
Of course not! Storybooks always tell stories of heroes rescuing damsels in distress, and today he's going all out.
Nan Zhi was just thinking about how to punish the middle-aged man opposite her quietly when she heard the door slam open with a "bang," and the door latch flew past her and hit the man's face.
"Hey, damn it, who is it?!"
Nan Zhi pursed her lips. Was this some kind of retribution? This was a slap in the face.
Liu Zhiqian covered his aching face and looked towards the door.
Liu Sanhui recognized the person: "Shopkeeper, this is the stupid son of the Song family pharmacy across the street."
"Who are you calling stupid!" Song Li said, displeased.
"I'm just a hero saving a damsel in distress!"
Song Li strode forward and pulled Nan Zhi behind him.
"Hey Liu Da Nao, this girl looks only thirteen or fourteen years old, and you're already so eager to make a move on her."
Liu Zhiqian: "Song Li, I advise you not to get involved in this matter. This is between the two of us."
Song Li snorted and shouted inside, "If I don't get involved, you'll ruin this girl's reputation. No, your tastes have changed now, why do you like dark-skinned girls?"
Nanzhi's expression changed behind her; she hated it when people said she was dark-skinned.
"And so short."
Nan Zhi: She also hates it when people say she's short.
She even suspected that this idiot was making a personal attack on her, but oh well, she'd better get out of here first.
Nan Zhi shrank behind Song Li: "Young master, he tried to steal my things."
"What!" the gift-giver shouted, "You're stealing things? Let's see how I deal with you guys!"
Nanzhi: My ears are going to be deafened.
Liu Zhiqian was a little flustered. How could this idiot be so crazy when he went berserk?
“Song Li, I advise you not to get involved in this matter, out of consideration for my relationship with your father.”
Song Li interrupted him: "You dare say you have a relationship with him, yet you forcibly abduct an innocent girl, and you still think you're right!"
Liu Zhiqian was dumbfounded. It turned out that this kid had caused trouble without even understanding the situation.
He was, after all, a weak and scholarly young man. Despite his arrogant demeanor, he was delicate and easily subdued by the burly man inside the door.
"Liu Zhiqian, I'm your grandfather! Let me go!" Song Li struggled, but the difference in strength was too great, and the big man held him firmly with one hand.
Liu Sanhui then realized that the girl in the hall had disappeared.
"Guards," Liu Zhiqian said with a dark face, "beat this idiot up and throw him in front of the Song family pharmacy."
If it weren't for this idiot, we would have gotten those herbs today.
"Send men to search carefully for that girl. Since she wants to sell medicinal herbs, you should wait outside the pharmacies around here."
Nanzhi carried a small bundle and hid along the way.
Cherry: "Master, there are people outside all the pharmacies now, so I'm afraid we can't sell medicine today."
Nan Zhi is not one to back down; the more difficult the task, the more interesting she finds it.
Half an hour later, an old woman dressed in coarse cloth and leaning on a cane appeared at the entrance of Song Family Pharmacy.
The guards were looking for a young woman, so they naturally didn't pay any attention to this old lady.
When Song Chengyi, the waiter, saw that it was an elderly woman, he quickly stepped forward and took her arm.
"Grandpa, the doctor's appointment is this way."
Good job, polite young man. It seems the people at this pharmacy are decent.
Nanzhi walked to the corner, took off the cloth from her head, and stood up straight.
"Call your manager, I want to sell medicinal herbs."
Seeing an old woman turn into a little girl, Song Chengyi was stunned for a long time.
Do girls nowadays go out like this?
A short while later, Song Xian came out, walked up to Nan Zhi, looked her over for a moment, and frowned.
"Girl, what herbs do you have?"
Nanzhi: "Many."
She laid the contents of the package on the table.
Song Xian stepped forward to examine them, and without exception, they were all good things. Some of them even had much stronger medicinal properties than ordinary herbs, which could be detected by their aroma alone.
"Miss, I'll take these herbs from you. How about I give you seventy taels of silver?"
Finally, someone who knew its value came along, and Nan Zhi took out the he shou wu she had just prepared.
Song Xian couldn't look away after just one glance.
Smell the medicine and check if it is properly stored.
"Girl, where did you get this?"
Nan Zhi: "This is how I make money, shopkeeper, please don't ask too many questions."
Song Xian realized that the other party might be overthinking it. "Miss, please don't misunderstand. I have been running a pharmacy for many years and this is the first time I have seen a medicinal herb with such strong medicinal properties. I am just curious about what conditions are needed for such a medicinal herb to grow."
Of course, it's her space. Anything grown in the soil of her space has different medicinal properties and appearance than ordinary herbs.
