Chapter 2657: Mission 43

Editor: Henyee Translations

The Lin Family’s pharmacy staff welcomed Gu Chaoyan warmly, guiding her to the backyard where Manager Lin and the young master were present.

Polite greetings were exchanged, and the young master, mentioned by Manager Lin, commenced the examination of the medicinal supplies.

Gu Chaoyan unveiled the contents of her basket, revealing six-hundred-year-old ginsengs and aged dragon roots.

“Take a look, Young Master and Manager Lin, and let me know if you find them satisfactory,” Gu Chaoyan offered.

Without uttering much, the two scrutinized the items with a serious focus. The grade and age of the ginseng and dragon root were impeccable, considered among the best in the entire country.

While they examined the goods, Gu Chaoyan candidly shared, “These are the last ones of their kind. Finding such treasures in the mountains has become increasingly difficult due to limited resources. However, we are currently cultivating new ginseng and dragon roots. Although they won’t match the age of these, the quant.i.ty will be more abundant in the future.”

Silence prevailed as they absorbed this information.

“At home, I’m conducting some experiments. If successful, I plan to expand the cultivation of these herbs,” Gu Chaoyan continued, providing insight into her future plans.

She then introduced a new addition, saying, “This bead is a recent acquisition. It may lack the age of the old ones, but the quality is commendable, and the quant.i.ty is substantial.”

Gu Chaoyan’s straightforward presentation highlighted the simplicity of the ginseng and dragon root offerings.

The ginseng and dragon root had been nurtured with Gu Chaoyan’s holy spring water, ensuring their efficacy surpa.s.sed that of mature counterparts.

Intent on leaving a portion for the Yan family, Gu Chaoyan considered it a potential bargaining chip for their future dealings.

Manager Lin, slightly surprised, nodded in agreement and expressed interest in trying the smaller herbs.

“These small ones can be used to make tea or soup. Give it a try,” Gu Chaoyan suggested.

Manager Lin, intrigued, was open to the novel idea of using ginseng for tea or soup, a departure from their usual methods.

“Make tea, make soup, use some at a time, don’t use too much. Daily intake is more beneficial than intense nourishment,” Gu Chaoyan advised earnestly.

Manager Lin grasped the concept and promptly decided to experiment. He instructed someone to prepare tea with the ginseng.

“Let’s try it together later,” Manager Lin proposed.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, and the trio patiently awaited the results.

The Young Master remained silent, not offering much commentary.

Manager Lin, respecting the Young Master’s demeanor, also refrained from excessive conversation.

Gu Chaoyan, equally taciturn, focused on the impending trial.

Fortunately, the tea arrived swiftly.

All three sipped the concoction.

As the Young Master drank, his facial expression s.h.i.+fted subtly, his eyes lighting up. He exchanged a glance with Gu Chaoyan.

“Alright, you can send these directly to the Lin Family’s pharmacy, and the price will not be low. You and Manager Lin can have a good discussion next time,” the Young Master declared.

Unbeknownst to Gu Chaoyan, the Young Master’s countenance had notably improved.

When the deal was done, Manager Lin walked Gu Chaoyan out with a smile on his face.

His decision back then was really right.

Gu Chaoyan came out of the pharmacy at 500 meters.

Then, she brought them out to play.

Manager Lin threw a meaningful look at Gu Chaoyan’s back.

Then he went back.

“Young Master, how is it?”

“It works well, even better than those old ginsengs. As long as they have ginseng to sell, the Lin Family will protect them for a day.”
