Gu Qingchen was strolling around aimlessly when she suddenly saw a large-scale Hundred Herb Hall. It was a Chinese medicine shop.

In her previous life, Gu Qingchen did not have much experience. However, as a drug test subject, she knew a lot of medical knowledge. Hence, when she saw a medicine shop, she subconsciously took a few more glances at it.

What made Gu Qingchen pay attention to this Hundred Herb Hall was that there was a “transfer” message posted on the outer door of the Hundred Herb Hall.

Since she had nothing better to do, Gu Qingchen walked over and browsed through the message. Her eyes immediately lit up.

Could it be that after being reborn, even the heavens were treating her exceptionally well?

First, she had the ability to read minds, and now, she was able to encounter such a good thing.

The message “transfer” stated that the only way for the Hundred Herb Hall to be transferred to whichever person was to be able to answer the question and gain the favor of the owner.

This was a good thing that came from the heavens. One could have the Hundred Herb Hall for free.

If Gu Qingchen could have the Hundred Herb Hall, as long as she worked hard with her family, she would be able to pay off the debt sooner or later.

Gu Qingchen saw that the message stated that all interested parties could meet at the Hundred Herb Hall on the 18th at 11 am to answer the shop owner’s question.

Gu Qingchen raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was a birthday gift from her father and was very expensive. In her previous life, Gu Qingchen had been forced to pawn the watch and exchange it for some money, she could barely make ends meet.

Today was the 18th, and it was only 10 am. Gu Qingchen had nothing else to do, so she simply pushed the door open and waited inside.

As soon as she pushed the door open, Gu Qingchen saw that it was full of people, men, and women, young and old. All of them came here because of this news that they had seen, they felt that they could get a bargain.

Gu Qingchen entered, but no one noticed. Gu Qingchen walked inside and listened to the discussions of the people around her.

Although these people did not know each other, it was obvious that they were divided into small groups. There were a group of older women, a group of older men, a group of middle-aged men, and a group of young men and women.

Gu Qingchen stood by the wall and did not join any of the groups.

However, she had been listening to the discussions of these people.

For example, there was a woman who was talking loudly, “Since this is a Chinese medicine shop, the questions the shop owner asks must be related to Chinese medicine. My ancestors were Chinese medicine practitioners for generations. Although some of the skills have been lost in my generation, when it comes to Chinese medicine, I definitely have a great advantage.”

Another example was an old man. “I think this medicine shop should only be taken over by steady and honest people. The young people nowadays are too impetuous. They definitely don’t meet the requirements of the shop owner.”

Of course, the young people were also having a discussion, “Nowadays, everywhere is demanding for younger staffs. I think this shop’s ideology is too conservative and that’s why it can’t continue to operate. If I were to take over this Hundred Herb Hall, it would definitely be a hundred times better than now.”

Everyone was excited to get their hands on the Hundred Herb Hall.

Gu Qingchen stood there quietly. At this moment, a well-dressed old man saw that Gu Qingchen was a little special and didn’t mingle with those people, so he was a little curious and walked over.

“Kid, are you also here to compete for the Hundred Herb Hall?”

Gu Qingchen raised her head and glanced at the old man. Just from the old man’s clothes, she knew that this old man’s family background was extraordinary.

Gu Qingchen only nodded and did not say much. After so many years of testing drugs, she had very little contact with the people around her. Gradually, she also became less talkative. When she faced strangers, she rarely spoke.

The old man was very interested in Gu Qingchen.

Everyone who came here was full of excitement and curiosity. Therefore, even if the people here did not know each other, they would gather together to chat and see if they could get some information from others.

Only Gu Qingchen was an exception. The girl’s expression was cold. After she came in, she only glanced around and then went to a corner alone. She did not talk to anyone.

“My surname is Yuan. I’m also here to join in the fun. Kid, what’s your name?”

Seeing that Gu Qingchen ignored him, the old man not only did not leave but started to chat with Gu Qingchen.

Although Gu Qingchen did not like to talk to strangers, she still respected the elders.

“Hello, my name is Gu Qingchen.”

When Elder Yuan heard Gu Qingchen’s reply, his eyes narrowed, and his eyes lit up. “I thought you were too arrogant to talk to me.”

“It seems that even though I’m old, I’m still very likable.”

Looking at Elder Yuan touching his chin and looking rather narcissistic, Gu Qingchen was stunned at first, then she laughed out loud.

This Grandfather Yuan could be classified as an old urchin. In any case, he was different from ordinary old people and was indeed very likable.

Perhaps it was because Gu Qingchen had read Elder Yuan’s mind, so she was not so reserved when talking to Elder Yuan.

Elder Yuan was a very talkative person, and he was very experienced. Very quickly, Gu Qingchen became familiar with him.

“Little girl Qingchen, let me test you. Guess, how many people here are really after this medicine shop?”

After they became familiar, Elder Yuan directly changed the address to “Little girl Qingchen”. To put it nicely, this way of address was more cordial.

Gu Qingchen did not mind the way Elder Yuan addressed her, so she let him be.

However, when she heard Elder Yuan’s question, Gu Qingchen became curious. She thought that everyone here was like her, thinking about whether they could get a bargain and get this medicine shop for free.

It seemed that there were other reasons why there were so many people in this medicine shop.

Although Gu Qingchen could use her mind-reading, her head would not be able to take it if she used too much mind-reading in a day. She had done an experiment, and for the time being, she could not use mind-reading more than five times a day, or else, her head would be in severe pain.

When she was in school, she overused her mind-reading superpower and felt as if her head had exploded. She did not want to try it again, so she secretly decided that she could not use her mind-reading more than five times a day.

She had unintentionally used it once just now and read Elder Yuan’s narcissistic thoughts. She did not want to waste her energy reading other people’s minds.

She had to answer the medicine shop owner’s question later. Although Gu Qingchen knew some medical skills, she might not be able to successfully obtain the medicine shop. She had to rely on her mind-reading.

Seeing Gu Qingchen’s confused expression, Elder Yuan seemed a little proud. He smiled and said, “Didn’t you notice that many people here are not from this city?”

Elder Yuan gave Gu Qingchen another hint. After listening to Elder Yuan’s hint, Gu Qingchen suddenly noticed that although some of the people here were from City Y, there were also many foreign accents mixed in.

These foreign accents included Elder Yuan in front of her.

Judging from Elder Yuan’s accent, he should be from the capital.

“Is there some secret in this Hundred Herb Hall?”

If there was no secret, why would so many foreigners come here? Gu Qingchen did not understand.
