Especially Ji Fengming's address of "Big Brother" made Shang Beiyu feel very comfortable.
“Yes, what Marquis Anping and the Crown Prince said makes sense. Since we are friends, we should help each other with all our might. Besides, the princess’s pills are unique in this world and can be considered priceless. Even if I were to give up some more spiritual plants, it would be worth it.” Shang Beiyu was eager to please the little bandit’s family and said very generously.
Ji Chenhai, with his stubble-covered chin, nodded with great satisfaction: "Hmm, Your Excellency is indeed wealthy and generous, and very loyal. I like making friends with people like you, so straightforward!"
Ji Fengming then stuffed the jade box into Ji Fengyao's arms, stepped forward and took Shang Beiyu's hand, saying, "Brother, how old are you this year? Your habit of giving gifts at the drop of a hat is quite to my liking. How about we become sworn brothers right now?!"
"Don't be silly," Shang Beiyu said, pressing down on Ji Fengming's hand, but his voice was cheerful and not angry.
He hadn't expected that the father and son were such easy people to please.
Although he was a bit greedy, how many people in this world are not greedy?
Black Owl was too lazy to look at Shang Beiyu's arrogant and foolish "the world is under my control" attitude. He turned to Ji Fengyao and said, "Little Yao'er, if you need anything, just make your request. We still have a lot of tricky things to deal with back home."
"Your Highness..." Ji Fengyao looked at Shang Xiye for instructions.
The man in black robes had spoken rudely to him earlier and was clearly unfriendly; whether as his wife or his apprentice, she should have been considerate of his feelings.
Shang Xiye was indeed extremely frustrated, but he was not an inflexible person;
He understood his father-in-law and brother-in-law's intentions, and he also understood his wife's love for collecting various medicinal herbs. He snorted lightly, like a proud wolfhound: "Since there's a sucker willing to be ripped off, my dear wife, just listen to your father and Fengming. Just ask for whatever you want. If we don't rip you off, we'll take advantage of you. If you can benefit from it, I won't be angry."
Shang Beiyu: "!!!"
Prior to this, he had been feeling quite well;
But upon hearing Shang Xiye's words, he felt as if he had swallowed a mouthful of blood, a kind of blood that was both too embarrassing to spit out and too hard to swallow!
The little bandit obediently said "Oh," and in front of Shang Beiyu, she playfully winked at Shang Xiye, openly throwing a flirtatious glance and sprinkling dog food (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection). Then she asked Wuying to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and actually wrote several pages in a very long and elegant manner.
"Emmmmmmm, senior, I know this might be a bit too much. If you mind, you don't have to give it to me." Ji Fengyao nervously handed several papers to Shang Beiyu.
Shang Beiyu hadn't spoken yet.
Ji Fengming stepped forward again, snatched the list from Ji Fengyao's hand, and shoved it into Shang Beiyu's hand, earnestly lecturing his younger sister: "Yao'er, how could you treat this brother so poorly? He sincerely wants to be friends with us. He will definitely find the medicinal herbs you need!"
Shang Beiyu glanced at the few pages in his hand, and one thing in particular made his scalp tingle: Ambergris!
The ambergris the young female bandit wanted was definitely not the kind of spice that ordinary people would think it was.
Instead, it is a elixir extracted from the inner core of a true dragon, a single drop of which is equivalent to a thousand years of cultivation!
For this reason, almost all the dragons in the cultivation world were slaughtered;
Even in a world where humans and beasts coexist peacefully, the dragon race dares not easily step out of their own territory, for fear of being ambushed and having their core stolen.
