"Actually, I've realized that I'm quite fair." After being stunned for a while, Gao Wentian said with a bitter smile. As a qualified businessman, Gao Wentian had never felt that he was not black-hearted, but now when he compared himself to Chuxi, tsk tsk, Ling Chuxi was the one who was the one with the bean paste filling. It looked harmless on the outside, white and tender, but it was really dark inside.
Ling Chuxi, Fu Huayi and the rest laughed out loud at the same time. Compared to Ling Chuxi's black-hearted nature, they were actually quite fair.
"Chuxi, it's been a few days. Do you think li shaoqiu will be in danger?" Although she had already guessed Ling Gusong's true purpose in capturing li shaoqiu, LAN Xinyu was still a little worried for him.
"Don't worry. Do you think he's been following the great trickster Jiang for nothing? he definitely won't take the loss he's currently suffering." Ling Chuxi had complete confidence in the big popinjay li.
Her guess was correct. If Ling Gusong's attitude toward li shaoqiu had been somewhat fierce at first, then he was becoming more and more polite to li shaoqiu.
After using up the last piece of black jade crystal, Ling Gusong finally collected a hundred sets of medicinal materials to refine the Orthodox pill. He had paid such a huge price and was counting on li shaoqiu's skillful hands to refine the pill. How could he dare to offend him so easily?
"Alchemist li, take a look at these herbs. There's no problem, right?" Now that Ling Gusong had a favor to ask of him, the way he addressed him became more respectful.
"These plants don't look right. Look at their color. They're not even a hundred years old. How can they be used?" Li shaoqiu casually flipped through it and continued to nitpick.
Ling Gusong's face turned pale. If he had known that the medicinal materials required to make a genuine pill were so high, he would have considered this problem carefully. But now, not to mention the black jade crystal, all his valuable things had been bet on this genuine pill. It was too late for him to regret.
"Why don't we just make do with it?" Ling Gusong said tentatively.
"Alright then, I'll try my best to make do with it." Li shaoqiu said.
He had seen Ling Gusong's predicament these days with his own eyes. Not only had he pawned his gold notes and black jade crystals, but he had also pawned the pendant on his neck. He had probably even taken out his coffin savings to buy all the medicinal herbs. If he really pushed him too hard, Ling Gusong might fly into a rage out of humiliation and kill him with a slap.
Stop while you're ahead, you can't go too far. The big popinjay li didn't realize that he had actually gone too far.
"That's good. Start refining the Orthodox pill now. " Ling Gusong said impatiently after hearing that there was no problem with the ingredients.
"Wait, the ingredients are all here, but there's no pill furnace. I can't just give you a pot to refine, right?" Li shaoqiu said.
"As an Alchemist, you don't even have a pill furnace?" Ling Gusong wanted to get angry, but he was afraid of pushing li shaoqiu too far, so he said patiently.
If this guy were to turn against him and risk his life to help him refine it, he couldn't just leave these hundreds of medicinal ingredients in the warehouse with worms growing on them.
He had been in contact with li shaoqiu for the past few days, and he could see that this fellow was not an easy person to deal with. Putting aside his strength and alchemy skills, his courage far exceeded his peers. If it were anyone else, it would be difficult for them to maintain their composure, neither servile nor overbearing, in the face of an expert like him.
In fact, he had really overestimated the great popinjay li. The great popinjay Li's neither servile nor overbearing attitude was learned from the great trickster Jiang. When it came to pretending to be a miracle doctor and an expert, if the great trickster Jiang claimed to be second, no one would dare to claim to be first. The great popinjay li was a great teacher producing an outstanding disciple. He had long put on a show of charm.
