The power of the Xi family is located in the south city of Yushui City. The Fangshi in the south district of the Xi family is far away from the Fangshi in the north district of the Xia family. The business competition between the two markets is extremely fierce, and various means of attracting customers emerge in endlessly.
Xi Qiushui, the son of the head of the Xi family, is the chief inspector of Fangshi, Xijianan District. In Fangshi, two kinds of shops are the most important, one is the medicine shop, and the other is the blacksmith shop. Herb shops and blacksmith shops are the most profitable shops, and they are also a display of family strength. Among the customers who come and go in the city, the most willing to spend money is the cultivator, and the cultivator generally needs more medicines, medicines, weapons and armor.
In order to attract more customers, the herbal medicine shop in Fangshi, Southern District, thought of a way to rent some precious medicinal materials from Yushui City Auction House. Rent it before.
They put this kind of medicinal material in the medicinal material shop, not for sale, but just to have an advertising effect. Businessmen are very shrewd, so they naturally know the benefits of advertising effects.
"Snapped!"
Xi Qiushui clapped his palms on the sandalwood table, stood up abruptly, the gorgeous brocade robes fluttering on his body, his face was sinister, and his eyes were sinister.
"Hmph, it must be that nasty Xia family who bought four-eared orchids. Hmph, that ghost girl said that a mysterious person wanted to buy four-eared orchids. I guess it must be people from the Xia family playing tricks to conceal their identities!" Xi Qiushui snorted coldly, his face extremely gloomy.
"Master, the person from the auction house just left, why don't we intercept her and buy the four-eared orchid!" A clerk in the medicine shop said flatteringly.
Xi Qiushui turned his eyes, glanced at the guy, and then said with a sly smile: "No need! The power behind the auction house is too huge, and it is not something our Xi family can easily offend. Since the Xia family wants to compete with us, then Let's fight, our Xi family is not afraid. After two days, I will take people to visit Fangshi in the northern district of Xia's family, hehe!"
The clerk in the store hurriedly bowed, with a charming smile on his face, and said wretchedly with parted eyes, "The young master must have Miao Jue's attention. The Xia family wants to fight the young master, and they are asking for death! The young master's resourcefulness is unparalleled in the world. Young master's martial arts are number one in the world!"
"Hahahaha..." Xi Qiushui looked at the guy with satisfaction, and laughed happily.
Before a cup of tea, the girl in green from the auction house's medicine shop came to the pharmacy in the south area of Xi's family, saying that she was ordered to retrieve the four-eared orchid. Xi Qiushui asked why the four-eared orchid was taken back, and the girl in green said that someone wanted to buy the four-eared orchid.
At that time, Xi Qiushui was a little puzzled, why did someone suddenly want to buy such expensive medicinal materials in Yushui City? And it's still a primary medicinal material! He then asked who was going to buy the century-old four-eared orchid. The girl in green hesitated for a while before she revealed that it was a mysterious person with a mask on her face.
When Xi Qiushui thought about it, he suspected that it was the people of the Xia family who knew that the Xi family rented the century-old four-eared orchids from the auction house to attract customers, so they came up with such an idea to buy four-eared orchids and ruined the Xi family's plan. Although he was very angry, the auction house must not be offended.
After the green-clothed girl left, Xi Qiushui finally vented her anger. Xi Qiushui is the most outstanding person among the younger brothers of the Xi family, and he is also the son of the patriarch. In the Xi family, even the elders are very polite to him.
After serving as the chief inspector of Fang City in the Southern District, Xi Qiushui became even more arrogant and even more arrogant!
…
When Xia Yan returned to Xia's house, it was just after noon. After he left the auction house, he made sure that no one was following him, so he ate some food on the street and hurried back.
Now all the medicinal materials are ready, just waiting for the old man Holy Emperor to teach him how to prepare the medicine.
When Xia Yan opened the courtyard door, his eyes blurred, thinking he had gone to the wrong place.
I saw the flowers and plants all over the courtyard, lingering in fragrance, bright and dazzling, making people refreshed, cheerful and comfortable. Among the flowers, there is a young girl whose skin is like satin and white as winter snow. The slender waist is walking forward with a pair of golden lotus, watering the flowers and plants with a watering can in his hand, smiling and frowning like an intoxicating dance, the crystal beads of sweat on his pretty face shine charmingly in the sun .
Xia Yan paused, puzzled in his heart, just about to leave to see what happened, the girl had already found Xia Yan who pushed the door and entered.
"Master!" The girl hurriedly bowed and saluted, her voice was like a yellow warbler out of the valley, it was indescribably wonderful, and she was completely different from Yafen who challenged the limit of the venue.
"You are?!" Xia Yan knew that he had gone to the right place, but the courtyard had changed too much.
"My name is Xiaoqing, and the patriarch asked me to serve the young master!" Xiaoqing lowered her petite head, her two braids were very cute, and a neat pink dress outlined her graceful figure. Although Xia Yan didn't recognize her, she did recognize Xia Yan, and now everyone in the Xia family probably recognized Xia Yan, including those servants and maids.
Xia Yan frowned when he heard the words, and said in a displeased tone: "How can this be done? I'm used to it by myself. You go back and tell the patriarch that I don't need anyone to serve me!"
Hearing this, Xiaoqing's face turned pale, and her frail body trembled slightly. She gave Xia Yan a pitiful look, and then lowered her head in fear, as if she had suffered infinite grievances.
Xia Yan thought, this woman is really troublesome!
A woman like Xia Zixin is troublesome, a woman like Xiaoqing is also troublesome, and a woman like Yafen is even more troublesome and dangerous!
"Forget it, I'll keep her. Anyway, there is still a vacant room on the left side of the courtyard, so let her do things by herself! Besides, if I insist on not accepting it, the patriarch may be unhappy because of it." Xia Yan thought for a while , I couldn't bear to drive Xiaoqing away, after weighing it again and again, I still think it's natural.
"Well, then you can stay in this courtyard. I don't call you normally, so you must not come to my room!" Xia Yan finally ordered with a dark face.
Hearing this sentence, Xiaoqing burst into laughter immediately, like pear blossoms in the rain, dazzlingly beautiful. Xia Yan couldn't help being stunned for a while, quickly turned his gaze, and walked towards his room, feeling ups and downs.
"Yes, master!" Huang Ying's voice came from behind.
Xia Yan is already fifteen years old, and has grown up in the Dragon Continent, so he is not ignorant of the relationship between men and women. However, Xia Yan still can't separate his mind to think about these things.
After entering the room, Xia Yan was shocked again. At this time, all the utensils in the room had been replaced. Compared with before, it can be said that the present room is a hundred times more gorgeous.
All the utensils are made of high-quality materials, and they are all brand new, obviously just purchased.
Especially the fragrant wood bed on the side is more than twice as big as before. It doesn't hurt to sleep on such a bed, even if it is sideways! Turning around to look at Xiaoqing, Xia Yan shook his head without asking, thinking that the patriarch must have ordered someone to replace him.
Once the status has changed, the treatment has also completely changed. If Xia Yan hadn't shined in the selection of outstanding children, I'm afraid no one would remember where he nestled.
"Oh, it's not good..." Suddenly, Xia Yan's face changed and he remembered something. He put the medicinal materials bought yesterday directly on the table in the room, because he was used to no one coming to him, so when he went out in the morning. I didn't put it away.
Hearing Xia Yan's exclamation, Xiaoqing hurriedly ran over with little feet, and asked in a panic: "Master, what's wrong with you?!"
Xia Yan said repeatedly: "Xiaoqing, have you seen those plants of grass on my table?!"
Xiaoqing's delicate nose wrinkled slightly, and her ruddy mouth opened to reveal her white teeth, and said, "I put those grasses in the kitchen. I saw that they were medicinal herbs, so I didn't throw them away. Young master, you You are sick, do you want to make medicine?!"
Xia Yan rolled his eyes and was startled. The medicinal materials bought with hundreds of gold coins were almost thrown away. Fortunately, Xiaoqing was sensible and didn't throw them away directly, otherwise it would be a disaster.
Taking a long breath, Xia Yan looked at Xiao Qing with a smiling face and said, "Well done, quickly bring those grasses, I want to use them."
