Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

"Master, the secular countries only recognize gold and silver. This doesn't seem to be of any use." Mu Weibei didn't reach out his hand and said with a bitter face.

Only then did Ling Gusong realize that black jade crystals were the best currency in the sects and sages, but few in the secular countries knew what they were.

"Then you take these gold notes." Ling Gusong handed a stack of gold notes to mu Weibei. He was a little regretful. If he had known this would happen, he would have exchanged for more gold notes. But who would have thought that someone of his status would one day use gold notes, this kind of worldly item?

"Master, this money can buy two or three of them, but I'm afraid it's a little difficult to buy a hundred." Mu Weibei held the gold notes and said hesitantly.

"Let's not care about him for now. Buy as much as you can. If it's not enough, I'll think of another way. Also, you must act quickly. Don't care too much about the price." Ling Gusong said. He was afraid that a long delay would bring more trouble. The news of li shaoqiu's capture had most likely reached Ling Chuxi's ears. If they came to find him, he did not have the confidence to deal with Ling Chuxi and Huangfu qingjue. Not to mention the two of them joining forces, any one of them could beat him up so badly that he would look for his teeth on the ground.

Soon, news spread in the capital that someone was purchasing rare medicinal herbs such as heart eroding grass and ice Soul Flower in large quantities. The person was extremely generous, and all the medicine merchants and Chambers of Commerce took action upon hearing it.

As the saying went,"all businessmen are cunning." With the insight of these businessmen, they could naturally see that mu Weibei was eager to buy medicinal herbs, so they had to raise the price. In just a few days, the heart eroding grass, which was originally ten thousand taels of silver per stalk, had risen to one hundred thousand taels of silver, and it was still rising.

Looking at the gold notes flowing out of his hands like water, Ling Gusong felt a pain in his heart. No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. Although gold notes were worldly items, they were still money.

He also realized that he had been too eager, allowing these unscrupulous merchants to seize the opportunity to ask for sky-high prices. However, it was too late to stop now. He had spent so much money, and he couldn't give up halfway.

Besides, a pill refining genius like li shaoqiu was not someone who could be captured just because he wanted to. If they missed this opportunity, there might not be a next time. They had to refine the Supreme-grade righteous pill before Ling Chuxi found them.

"Master, I don't have any money." Mu Weibei took out the herbs he had bought and said to Ling Gusong pitifully.

"Didn't you say you could buy twenty to thirty of them? Why did you only buy a dozen or so?" Ling Gusong asked in surprise as he looked at the dozen or so sets of medicinal herbs in front of him.

"I didn't expect those unscrupulous merchants to raise the price so high. Sigh, we've suffered a big loss this time." Mu Weibei said.

"Forget it, I can't blame you for this. I was too impatient." Ling Gusong said.

"Master, what do we do now?" Mu Weibei asked.

"How about this, you take these black jade crystals. I think there will be someone who knows what they are. If not, you can also think of a way to exchange them for gold notes." Ling Gusong said helplessly.

"Wait, these herbs won't work. They're too young. They must be at least five hundred years old. These herbs are at most a hundred years old. Go and Exchange with them." Li shaoqiu said with a frown as he squatted on the ground and pulled the medicinal herbs.

He couldn't tell the age of the herbs, so he was just trying to annoy Ling Gusong.

Hearing this, Ling Gusong's face darkened immediately. He had spent a lot of money, but what he had bought was a fake. He felt aggrieved. However, the one who was deceived was his most precious disciple, and he could not bear to scold her. He could only hold his anger in his heart, and his expression was even more uncomfortable than constipation.
