Foundation

"Busy business? Even if Eldest Miss has called you over, as busy as the business is, you shouldn't have said anything! "

Xiao Lan said coldly.

"Alright, Manager Lin also has his own difficulties. Don't say too much."

Zi Yun waved at Xiao Lan.

Lin Fengyun, who had been choked by Xiao Lan, had a bad complexion. He coldly snorted and no longer spoke. Everyone just stared at Zi Yun, waiting for her next instructions.

"Recently, my Violet Palace encountered some difficulties. I hope that the managers can properly manage the business at hand and proceed with everything as it is before, and I hope that this matter will not affect the operation of the business. What do you think?"

Zi Yun slowly said.

"Eldest Miss, although that's the case, ever since the Old Master and Madam Mu, as well as the other Grand Masters of the Violet Palace died, the business we had had had decreased by several times.

Let's just say that the Huang and Zhou families are also in the medicinal herbs business. During this period of time, they have been secretly tinkering with each other, causing several medical facilities that were originally here to buy medicinal herbs to fall to the Zhou and Huang families.

"Today, I also hope that young miss can come up with a plan. Otherwise, I won't be able to continue this business."

A fat storekeeper bitterly smiled.

"Owner Fu, how do the Zhou and Huang Family do it?"

Zi Yun frowned.

"Tch, it's nothing more than bribing the deacons that we sent to purchase medicinal ingredients in the mountains, trading them for our good stuff with their inferior goods, or spreading rumors behind our backs. If the Lord is still alive, then I naturally am not afraid of such petty tricks, but now …" Even if it is just a ridiculous rumor, it will still be taken seriously by everyone! "

Lin Fengyun sneered.

"Owner Fu, I want to hear it from your own mouth."

Zi Yun said indifferently.

The rich storekeeper nodded his head, "Just like what Shopkeeper Lin said. Besides that, the Zhou and Huang Family have other tricks up their sleeves, alas …"

"When Master was still alive, who dared to humiliate the business of our Zi Family?"

Some manager couldn't help but sigh.

"I will settle this matter."

Zi Yun said indifferently.

"Solve it?" How does young mistress intend to settle this? "

Lin Fengyun's eyes were burning as he looked at Zi Yun. His tone was a bit overbearing.

"Like I said, I have my own ways of resolving this. Everyone, as long as you all feel at ease and do things, it's fine."

Zi Yun said indifferently.

Every shopkeeper present were intelligent, how could they be intimidated by Zi Yun's words? The majority of them were still here because they were loyal to the Violet Palace Realm and hoped that Zi Yun would be able to turn the tide and allow the current situation in the Violet Palace to ease up.

Otherwise, they would have to consider the olive branches extended to them by the other clans.

Rather than waiting until our family was destroyed and we lost our lives, we might as well leave this leaking ship as soon as possible so that we don't have to bury ourselves in the sea with nothing left of us!

"You all..."

Xiao Lan was so angry that her face turned red. As she watched the shopkeepers continuously force Zi Yun, she suddenly felt powerless.

Once upon a time, which shopkeeper would dare to speak to her like that? Not to mention the greed at the moment in Lin Fengyun's eyes, even she could clearly see it!

At this moment, a figure suddenly barged into the living room.

"Young Master, Young Miss is discussing important matters with the various shopkeepers. Please don't go in!"

Ruyun followed behind Ning Qi with a flushed face. Sweat dripped down from his forehead and the tip of his nose, it was obvious that he was trying to catch up with Ning Qi.

Shua shua shua!

Lin Feng Yun and the rest all looked towards Ning Qi.

"Eldest Miss, is this the new Young Master?"

Lin Fengyun's face revealed a trace of ridicule.

"What are you doing here?"

Zi Yun frowned.

"I heard you called all the shopkeepers over. There's something I want to ask you."

Ning Qi laughed, and his gaze swept past all of the shopkeepers. He had lived for so many years, and no matter how smart these shopkeepers were, they were nothing in front of Ning Qi.

"What is it?"

Zi Yun frowned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, may I know which one of you is in the medicinal herb business?"

Even though Ning Qi was asking a question, his gaze was fixated on the body of the rich shopkeeper, because only his body had a trace of the faint fragrance of medicine.

"I am in the medicinal herb business. May I know what Young Master has instructed me to do?"

The rich shopkeeper said.

"I need some medicinal herbs. I've already written them down on this paper. How long will it take for you to send them to me?"

Ning Qi passed over a piece of paper to the rich shopkeeper.

The rich shopkeeper glanced at it, and then his expression became extremely strange. He did not answer Ning Qi, but looked towards Zi Yun: "Eldest Miss, Young Master wants ingredients that are worth at least two hundred thousand silver taels …"

"Two hundred thousand?"

"Whoa!" It really is a lion giving an exorbitant price! "

All of the shopkeepers looked at Ning Qi with strange expressions. Lin Fengyun could not help but taunt: "I heard that Young Master fell down from the mountain a while ago. Could it be that these medicinal ingredients were used to treat Young Master's injuries?"

"What the hell are you doing?"

Zi Yun helplessly rubbed his temples.

"You all know that I'm cultivating the Dao. This is the pill I use to concoct the Foundation Establishment stage."

Ning Qi laughed faintly.

Cultivation of the Dao?

Everyone's face revealed a look of astonishment, but following that, they looked at Ning Qi with ridicule.

A disciple with a poor family background actually wanted to cultivate Dao?

He could either fall down from the mountain and become a fool, or he could use this crude excuse to amass wealth. After all, even if those medicinal herbs were sold at a cheap price, they would still be worth at least a hundred thousand taels of silver!

Everyone originally thought that Zi Yun wouldn't agree, but after a few breaths of silence, Zi Yun suddenly said to the rich shopkeeper, "According to Young Master's note, send a set of ingredients over."

"Eldest Miss?"

This time, even Xiao Lan was stunned. Her face revealed an anxious expression. She could see that Zi Yun's expression was firm and her words of persuasion were immediately swallowed back down her throat.

With her understanding of Zi Yun, as long as Zi Yun made a decision, no one would be able to change her mind!

"Eldest Miss, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate, right?"

Lin Fengyun said with a frown.

"I'm speaking to Manager Fu, not you."

Zi Yun looked at Lin Fengyun indifferently.

Lin Fengyun was stunned for a moment before his face darkened and he no longer spoke.

The rich storekeeper was silent for a few breaths, then slowly nodded: "I will follow Eldest Miss's orders."

"How long will it take?"

Ning Qi laughed.

"Probably... One month. "

The rich storekeeper hesitated.

"Seven days. I need to see those medicinal herbs for seven days. Do you understand?"

Ning Qi looked at the rich shopkeeper indifferently.

The rich shopkeeper originally wanted to open his mouth to refute, but when he saw Ning Qi's pair of eyes, he inexplicably swallowed his words back and nodded at the same time, "Alright, we'll definitely deliver seven days!"

After saying that, he was stunned. He subconsciously touched his face, and he didn't know when, but there was a layer of cold sweat on it.

"Why is the look in the new young master so terrifying …"

The rich shopkeeper was confused, and suddenly felt that Ning Qi was not as simple as he was rumored to be!
