Small Farmer Medical God-Chapter 1558 - 1553: Faking It Right to Your Face?
Mu YanYu quickly stepped inside and heard Hu Xiaobei speak softly.
"Boss, I’m looking for three-flavor medicinal materials!"
"Oh? I wonder what they are?"
Upon hearing this response, Mu YanYu hurried over.
At that moment, she heard Hu Xiaobei directly naming the three medicinal ingredients.
She realized she hadn’t heard of any of them.
...
"It seems I really don’t know much!"
With a bitter smile, she shook her head helplessly...
Previously, in an attempt to complete this formula, she had deliberately studied a lot about pharmacology.
After studying, she discovered she had quite a talent for it.
Because of this, she had always been rather proud before.
But now, hearing what Hu Xiaobei said, she realized she had been overthinking it; she still had a lot to learn in this area...
Bitterly smiling, Mu YanYu heard the boss speak softly, "Young people! The three medicinal ingredients you’re looking for are quite niche! In the entire market, only I have them! You’re really lucky!"
"Haha! Yes, I’m quite lucky!"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei’s response, Mu YanYu’s eyes lit up as she stood behind him.
"He headed straight here, clearly it’s not just luck; he must have known early on that the needed ingredients were here!"
As she spoke, she discreetly and thoroughly observed Hu Xiaobei...
She realized her assessment of Hu Xiaobei might have been too low...
Hu Xiaobei was unaware of this and was looking around.
He noticed the store had quite a comprehensive selection of medicinal ingredients.
Although many ingredients weren’t very old, the variety was indeed plentiful.
While looking around, Hu Xiaobei heard a soft voice, "You’re really lucky; among the ingredients, two are already running low! If you came a bit later, you might have left empty-handed!"
"Then I really am lucky!"
Softly speaking, Hu Xiaobei took them from the seller’s hands.
After a glance, confirming there were no issues, Hu Xiaobei prepared to wrap them up.
Just as he was about to act, he suddenly heard a loud voice.
"Wang, Wang, come quickly, come quickly, this time I’ve found a treasure, I’ve found a treasure!"
The words caught everyone’s attention, naturally including Hu Xiaobei...
Turning his head, Hu Xiaobei first caught a whiff of a captivating medicinal aroma.
"It’s ginseng!"
At the moment he smelled the fragrance, Hu Xiaobei immediately judged.
Having made the judgment, Hu Xiaobei looked closely to see someone holding a ginseng running over.
The old man who helped him find the medicinal ingredients quickly approached the excited person, "This... You’ve really found something good this time!"
After the boss spoke, he heard a proud response, "Yes! How about it? I’m lucky, aren’t I?"
After a closer inspection of the ginseng, the boss quickly said, "It’s more than good, it’s fantastic! No nonsense, this must be sold to me, name your price."
"This... I’m afraid it won’t work this time! Many people have taken a liking to it, I came here just to show you!"
"Many people want it? Didn’t we agree before? The next medicinal ingredient you find belongs to me!"
"I..."
The two of them started arguing directly.
As their argument continued, more people gathered to watch the drama unfold in the shop.
Eventually, they were surrounded.
Hu Xiaobei withdrew his gaze at this point...
"So that’s how it is!" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Hu Xiaobei sneered coldly...
At this moment, a soft voice came to Hu Xiaobei’s ear, "Xiaobei, is there something wrong with the person bringing the ginseng?"
Hearing such a curious inquiry, Hu Xiaobei looked at Mu YanYu in surprise and asked curiously, "Auntie, why do you think so?"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei’s question, Mu YanYu seriously thought for a moment.
"I can’t say why, just feel that this person isn’t good!"
"A woman’s intuition is truly terrifying!"
Praising softly, Hu Xiaobei coughed once and explained in detail!
"Well! This person is indeed not good! On the surface, he says he doesn’t plan to sell to the boss here; in reality, he just wants a higher price. But if that’s all, it’s actually not a big deal, as the age of the ginseng he holds is indeed a treasure, asking for more money is normal. However, this ginseng isn’t right! And it’s very wrong!"
"The ginseng isn’t right?"
"Yes! Not only is it wrong, but it’s completely wrong!"
"Xiaobei, you must be mistaken, this ginseng looks perfectly normal!"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei saying there’s a problem with the ginseng, Mu YanYu carefully examined it, quickly frowning slightly...
She felt Hu Xiaobei was mistaken...
The reason was because she carefully observed and found that the ginseng looked completely fine at first glance...
After glancing at Mu YanYu, Hu Xiaobei hit the nail on the head, "It looks normal on the outside, but it has severe problems internally!"
"Internally?"
"Yes! I’m not going to explain now; later, I will personally expose this fraud."
"Oh? Then I’ll wait and see!"
While speaking, Mu YanYu crossed her arms, looking at Hu Xiaobei with a face full of anticipation.
With a smile, Hu Xiaobei watched as the two finished talking.
The person holding the ginseng spoke reluctantly, "Since you’re insistent, fine then! This wild Hundred-year ginseng is yours, name your price."
"Alright! I..."
Before he could finish, he heard a cough...
Turning his head, he saw a young man gesturing for him to come over.
After a closer look, it was a patron from earlier; he quickly said, "Young man, don’t rush, once I’m done here, I’ll wrap up the three medicinal materials for you."
Upon hearing this, Hu Xiaobei knew he clearly misunderstood his intention...
Silently sighing, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Boss, come over for a moment, we need to talk."
"Hm? Alright then!"
After hesitating for a second, he headed over.
As he walked over, Hu Xiaobei joined him, heading to a distant corner.
Once they stopped, Hu Xiaobei looked at him and quickly asked, "Boss, do you really want to buy that ginseng?"
Although unsure why Hu Xiaobei asked, he quickly responded, "Correct, it’s Hundred-year ginseng, my shop really needs it!"
The shop had many items but no genuine treasure...
This made him feel embarrassed, so now, he eagerly wished to obtain it, to have a treasure for his shop...
