Chapter 221 Rushing to buy medicinal materials
Li Luo left the Xiyangwu headquarters, raised his eyes, and his eyes were slightly condensed, because he saw more and more people starting to gather here on the street outside the headquarters. Come, and at the same time point at the headquarters, there are many whispers.
Obviously, as they expected, news spread in Daxia City just as the Prime Minister here was poisoned. It was obviously Pei Hao who was secretly adding fuel to the fire.
The opponent's offensive, which had been brewing for several days, finally broke out.
However, Li Luo knew that he had no time to care about this at this time. He took the reins of the horse beast handed over by the guard, turned over, and galloped out.
Pavilion Master Lei Zhang followed closely behind with a dozen elite guards to provide protection.
The group of people quickly passed through the spacious streets, and along the way, Li Luo could hear a lot of news about Xiyang House being spread.
"Young Master, the news is spreading more and more, and in the process of spreading, it is becoming more and more detrimental to our Xiyang House." Lei Zhang came closer and said in a deep voice.
He had previously assigned a few people to investigate, and he had just received the report. There were a lot of rumors spreading in Daxia City. Some of them even started to say that Li Luo was angry that these branch tempering masters refused to serve him, so he directly sent all of them to him. The branch quenching master poisoned him.
Li Luo nodded, his expression was quite calm, after all, this was expected.
"Don't worry about it. Go to Jinlongbao Store to purchase the needed antidote first. As long as we can save Tang Yun and the others' lives, everything will be revealed when they wake up," Li Luo said.
Lei Zhang nodded. He took a look at Li Luo's calm face that exuded some formidable aura. He knew that this was Pei Hao's first attack on Li Luo, the young master of the palace. In the past, , this is the treatment that only Jiang Qing'e can enjoy.
Obviously, Pei Hao, who still regarded Li Luo as a useless young master half a year ago, has now been forced to start paying attention to Li Luo.
From a certain perspective, this can be regarded as confirmation of Li Luo's growth in the past six months, right?
When Lei Zhang was thinking about this, he was always alert and vigilant. There was energy flowing on the surface of his body, and he scanned the surroundings sharply.
After all, this time Pei Hao launched an attack on Li Luo, and no one knew whether he would attack Li Luo directly. This may be the main reason why Jiang Qing'e asked him to lead someone to protect Li Luo personally.
However, Lei Zhang's worries did not come to pass. Li Luo and his party passed through many streets unimpeded, and finally arrived outside Jinlong Baoxing, which had an amazing flow of people.
Li Luo hurried in.
He first found a steward of Jinlong Baoxing, who obviously knew him and was quite polite.
"Can the steward please help me check whether Jinlong Baoxing has these medicinal materials now?" Li Luo handed over the list and asked.
The steward took it, glanced at it, frowned, and said hesitantly: "Master Li Luo, the medicinal materials on this, golden insect ointment and celestial salt, happened to be ordered by many medicine shops today. They directly took away all the inventory of our Jinlong Baoxiang."
Li Luo's eyes were slightly cold. Sure enough, even Jinlongbaoxiang's side was intercepted? It seems that Pei Hao really has strong financial resources when he takes action this time.
I'm afraid the black hands behind this didn't give enough support, right?
Are you not planning to give him any chance to make a comeback?
Lei Zhang's face on the side was also a bit livid. Although the medicinal materials they needed were high-end, they were not in urgent need on weekdays. However, they were suddenly purchased in large quantities by some medicine shops today. If there was no conspiracy in this, then it was not. It's so naive.
Li Luo was silent for a few breaths and said, "Please ask the steward to help me find Lu Qing'er. I have an appointment with her."
The steward quickly nodded in agreement, led him to the private room, and asked him to wait a moment.
Li Luo didn't wait long in the private room when he heard light footsteps outside the door, and then Lu Qing'er pushed the door open and walked in, her beautiful and charming face filled with smiles.
But when she saw Li Luo's slightly solemn look, her smile softened a little and said, "Something happened over there at Xiyang House?"
Obviously, she is also concerned about the situation in Luo Lan Mansion. Naturally, she is also aware of the Xiyangwu incident that caused a lot of commotion in Daxia City a few days ago.
Moreover, when Li Luo attended her birthday party before, he secretly told her that something might happen at Xiyang House today, and asked her to stay at Jinlong Baoxing and try not to leave, as he would have something to ask for here.
Li Luo nodded and briefly explained the matter.
"Now we need some special detoxification products, but the manager said before that the "Golden Insect Ointment" and "Spirit Glauber's Salt" here at Jinlongbao Store were suddenly ordered by some medicine stores." Lu Qing'er's pretty face was slightly cold and she
said : "These are two high-grade medicinal materials, but the quantity purchased on weekdays is not too large. Today they suddenly became a hot commodity. It seems that someone is causing trouble." "
And even the supply of goods at Jinlong Baoxing can be cut off, I guess it must be At this time, other drug stores in Daxia City should also be out of stock."
Li Luo nodded and said: "So, is there any other way?"
Lu Qing'er pondered slightly and said: "Actually, what they are rushing to buy is just the ones from Jinlong Baoxing. The amount on the market today, but Jinlong Baoxiang is very large, so there will be a reserve warehouse to cope with unexpected needs. I think there should be these two kinds of medicinal materials in it." Behind Lu Qing'er, the steward quickly heard this
. Said: "Miss, the reserve cannot be opened without the president's jade talisman as proof!" "Besides, we don't have this authority!" Lu Qing'er glanced at
him and said, "I have it."
Then The steward hesitated and said with a wry smile: "If the reserve is opened at will, I'm afraid that the other vice-presidents will have opinions and attack the president."
Lu Qing'er smiled and said: "Don't underestimate my mother so much."
Then she didn't. Without further words, he directly said to Li Luo: "The situation is urgent. Come with me."
Li Luo looked at her beautiful and charming face and said with a complicated expression: "Qing'er, thank you very much. I won't say anything else. Now This is a favor that I owe you. If you want to attend the Golden Dragon Dojo in the future, no matter what your requirements are, I will help you complete them."
Lu Qing'er smiled cutely: "That's what you said."
After saying that, she twisted her waist and swung her long black hair to lead the way.
Li Luo followed quickly.
A group of people passed through the interior of Jinlong Baoxing. About ten minutes later, they saw a huge warehouse in front of them. There were guards patrolling all around the warehouse, and the defense was quite tight.
But when Lu Qing'er led Li Luo up, someone suddenly rushed over from the side and said in a deep voice: "Qing'er, you can't open the reserve. This is against the rules." Li Luo glanced at the person and vaguely
said I still have some impression that he is called Ning Zhao, and his father is a vice president of Jinlong Baoxing.
Lu Qing'er frowned slightly and said, "What's wrong with the rules?"
Ning Zhao smiled helplessly: "Qing'er, I don't want to stop you, I just want to open the reserve, and you must have the president's jade talisman as proof. , otherwise, even if you go up, the guards will not listen to you."
Lu Qing'er stretched out her little hand, and saw a jade talisman hanging on her fingertips. On the jade talisman, there were complex lines engraved on it, and there were faint... Strange light flashes.
Ning Zhao looked at the jade talisman in Lu Qing'er's hand, was stunned, and said: "The president's jade talisman? How did you get it?"
Lu Qing'er said lightly: "Don't worry about it, I have the jade talisman, so I can It's in compliance with the rules, and I didn't do anything bad when I opened the reserve. I just took a small portion of the medicinal materials. I will sell the other medicinal materials at twice the price. Brother Ning Zhao, please remember. Come on, the purpose of our Jinlong Baoxing is "harmony brings wealth."
"I'm making money for Jinlong Baoxing, so don't stop me."
After saying that, she ignored Ning Zhao and took Li Luo directly. He walked to the storage warehouse and handed the jade talisman in his hand to an old man who was guarding here.
The old man looked a little hesitant, but after finally confirming the authenticity of the jade talisman, he nodded, and then ordered people to open the reserve to take out the medicinal materials they needed.
"Miss, please wait a moment." He said to Lu Qing'er who was waiting.
Lu Qing'er nodded lightly.
When Ning Zhao saw this scene, he frowned, then turned his somewhat sharp gaze to Li Luo, and whispered: "Li Luo, you are also the young master of Luo Lan Mansion after all. You instruct Qing'er like this." If you break the rules, President Yu will definitely be unhappy if he knows about it."
Li Luo could see some hostility in Ning Zhao's eyes, but he really had no interest in paying attention to him at this time, and just said: "Please rest assured, I It's not that I want these medicinal materials in vain. As Qing'er said before, I am willing to pay double the price for these medicinal materials." "
Huh, is this a matter of money?" Ning Zhao sneered.
Li Luo narrowed his eyes and stared at Ning Zhao, his eyes gradually becoming colder.
"You should also know the current situation in Xiyang House, but you are still trying to stop it. Does this have anything to do with you?"
Ning Zhao curled his lips and said: "Young Master, don't go around biting in anger. Man, this is an internal strife in your Luo Lan Mansion. Instead of blaming outsiders, it’s better to clean up the inside first." Li Luo glanced at him indifferently and stopped
talking to him, just waiting for those Get special detoxifying herbs.
Ning Zhao also didn't speak anymore, and just sneered secretly. After calculating the time, the people he sent should have sent the news to President Yu, right?
The jade talisman in Qing'er's hand was most likely taken secretly by her. President Yu must have known about it and would step in to stop her. At that time, her perception of Li Luo would definitely become extremely bad. Just drive out the Golden Dragon Treasure.
Thinking of this, Ning Zhao's expression became calm, and he looked at Li Luo with a little gloating.
This kid, relying on his good looks, made Qing'er dizzy. However, do you really think that President Yu is a vegetarian?
