Prehistoric life
Chapter 24 Strange Old Man
I just wanted to come over and ask, but I didn't expect that the drugstore owner really had something good. However, before Su Yuexi opened her mouth, a wizened old man who had no idea how to test appeared in the store and directly said that he wanted to buy the thing.
"Who are you? Didn't you see that my second lady wanted this thing?" Zhou Cheng immediately shouted loudly.
This old man doesn't look like a good person at first glance, and he even has an extremely uncomfortable aura about him.
"It doesn't matter who I am, I just buy something and leave. Boss, please set a price!" the old man said again.
The drugstore owner was in a dilemma, so he naturally thought of selling it to Su Yuexi. Firstly, the other party would definitely give him a satisfactory price, and secondly, he lived in Xinghe City, so he could please the Su family's two thousand gold
, better than giving anything to the old lady.
However, since I open the door to do business, it seems a bit inappropriate to say so directly.
"Don't be busy, boss, what is this thing? Tell me." Su Yuexi asked with a smile.
The boss nodded and hurriedly said: "This is a rare medicine called Cordyceps sinensis, which is rare in thousands of years. For ordinary injuries, just take it. It is better for the elderly to take it, which will prolong life for at least ten years."
Prolonging life for nearly ten years, these words made Su Yuexi's eyes light up, is there anything more suitable for Mrs. Su than this?
"Okay, one hundred thousand taels of gold, is that enough?"
Su Yuexi was so arrogant that she offered a price, which made both Zhou Cheng and the drugstore owner swallow deeply.
One hundred thousand taels, that's a lot of gold. If it were given to me, I'd probably be able to redeem it in pieces for the girl.
The drugstore owner was also surprised. One hundred thousand taels. Apart from the royal family, only the Su family in Suyuan Kingdom could afford this price. He nodded hurriedly: "That's enough, that's enough!"
Just as he was about to hand over the jade box, he heard the old man over there say loudly: "Two hundred thousand taels!"
He was decisive and without hesitation.
"You old bone raised by rabbits, who are you! Do you know where this place is? I don't want to know who this beautiful girl in front of you is. This is the second young lady of the Su family, the Su family, do you understand?
What is the Xinghe Su family?"
Someone dared to snatch things with Miss Su Er in Xinghe City, and it would be a shame. As the personal bodyguard of the little bully in Xinghe City, Zhou Cheng naturally had to stand up and scold him in time.
"So what about the Su family? I just bought something. Do you still want to kill me?"
Facing Zhou Cheng's scolding, the withered old man didn't care at all, with a slight smile on his face, which was extremely vulgar.
"I don't know how to kill you, but I will offer you 100,000 gold. It's up to the boss who sells it to you." Su Yuexi said lightly. The little overlord of Xinghe City, it's not bad if he doesn't rob it directly, but there are still people.
Dare to compete with yourself until you want to see what the other person is capable of.
"Of course I will sell it to you, Miss Second. Let alone one hundred thousand taels, it would be an honor for me to take it for just one penny!" the drugstore owner said without hesitation.
This boss is indeed smart enough. From now on, he will let the boys from the Yue Xi Gang watch more and collect less protection fees. Zhou Cheng thought to himself.
In fact, this is not because the drugstore owner is very clever. Firstly, the second lady cannot afford to offend him, and the other old man has an unknown origin. Who knows who he is. Secondly, if the second lady of the Su family said one hundred thousand, then it must be one hundred thousand, one cent.
There won't be much money, and the other old man doesn't look like a rich man. Who would believe it for two hundred thousand taels of gold?
"Boss, is this how you do business?" The wizened old man's smile froze and he said coldly.
Without waiting for the boss to speak, Zhou Cheng immediately shouted loudly: "You don't care how he does business, he won't sell it to you, you know?"
The wizened old man looked at Zhou Cheng for a moment, and then smiled faintly: "If you don't want to sell it, you won't sell it, but you have to take this thing, hold it securely, and remember not to regret it."
"you……"
Just as Zhou Cheng was about to show off his power, Su Yuexi had already said, "That's our business. It depends on how you make us regret it."
The wizened old man nodded and smiled, without saying anything more, and nodded to the drugstore owner, then turned and left. But after turning around, his eyes became as scary as an eagle or wolf.
"Xiao Chengzi, go and see where this old man is coming from!"
Su Yuexi said angrily. The old man's last words were both soft and hard, and he was obviously threatening something, which made her extremely unhappy. This is the first time in Xinghe City that the second young lady of the Su family has been threatened.
suffered.
"yes!"
Zhou Cheng immediately took the order and went out, but as soon as he ran out, he was surprised to find that in this moment, the withered old man had disappeared.
"Deputy gang leader, deputy gang leader!" Suddenly someone yelled and ran over. It was someone from the Yuexi Gang.
"Alai, why are you here?"
Zhou Cheng asked in confusion. The leader was none other than the third leader of the Yuexi Gang, named Alai.
Su Yuexi didn't care about anything except fighting for territory, and Zhou Cheng didn't care about anything except collecting money. It can be said that the main person who really keeps the Yuexi Gang running is this Alai.
"Didn't the gang leader say that he was going to find that boy named Zheng to bring the situation back? The brothers have been gathering for a long time and saw that you didn't come, so they came here to find you."
So that's it. Zhou Cheng was moved and immediately asked: "How long have you been here?"
"It's been a while, and I saw you and the gang leader buying things, so I waited outside."
"Have you been here for a while? Have you ever seen a skinny, wretched old man walking out, about this size..."
Zhou Cheng hurriedly described the old man's appearance and wanted to ask where the old man was. The old man gave him an inexplicable feeling. Although it was not particularly clear, he was definitely not a kind person and he must investigate carefully.
Without thinking, Alai scratched his head and said in confusion: "Old man? What old man? I didn't see it. At this moment, I saw you, the deputy gang leader, coming out alone, and no one else!"
"There is no one else? Are you sure?" Zhou Cheng exclaimed. If he had not known that Alai would not lie to him, he would have been arrested and tortured to extract a confession.
Seeing Zhou Cheng's appearance, Alai seemed unsure again and asked the two people around him: "What about you? Have you seen it?"
"No!" The two men shook their heads.
Damn it. Although the old man was not big, he still had such a puddle of flesh. How could he not see it? Zhou Cheng suddenly felt dangerous in his heart.
"Brother Cheng, is there any problem?" Alai asked.
Zhou Cheng shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Go ahead and ask everyone to look for the weird old man I just mentioned. If you find it, just keep an eye on it first. Don't alert the snake. Wait until the gang leader and I come over."
"I understand, then do we still want to fight this battle?" Alai asked again.
Zhou Cheng waved his hand: "No fight, no fight, wait until after the old lady's birthday. Keep an eye on me, we must find that weird old man."
"yes!"
Several people nodded and left.
Zhou Cheng returned to the store, whispered in Su Yuexi's ear, and explained the situation.
Su Yuexi was not surprised but overjoyed, and her eyes flashed: "Did you meet a strange person? Xiao Chengzi, bring me the things back, and I'll go look for them."
Without waiting for Zhou Cheng to object, he used the skill of lightening himself and disappeared from his eyes.
