When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then she asked,

“Then, we’ll keep the money we earned this time?”

Luo Cheng nodded with understanding.

The person sitting at the same table acted like he didn’t hear Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng’s conversation and kept eating.

Li Xiaoran didn’t have to look to sense that that person wasn’t as calm as he seemed on the surface.

It seemed that the fish was about to take the bait!

Soon, the person left after dinner.

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng were not in a hurry. They ate breakfast slowly and enjoyed the delicious food.

The food in this cafe tasted very delicious and Li Xiaoran liked it.

After eating, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng returned to the place they had previously arranged.

At this moment, Meng Yan and Ma Chongshan, who had been waiting in the house, quickly came over to ask about the situation when they saw the two of them return.

“How is it? Did the other party take the bait?” Meng Yan asked.

Li Xiaoran looked at Meng Yan and said, “Don’t worry, it’ll be a piece of cake! However, the other party is a very cautious person, so I guess he’ll investigate before looking for us!”

“Then what are we going to do? Wait here?” Meng Yan asked anxiously.

“No, of course we can’t just wait. The four of us can go out separately and ask which pharmacy wants to buy our herbs!” Li Xiaoran shook her head as she said.

Meng Yan nodded when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Oh, I understand! Alright, we’ll bring some herbs out to ask around later!” After the matter was agreed upon, everyone went their separate ways. Sure enough, after the four of them went out to sell herbs, someone started watching them secretly.

Perhaps because someone had interfered, the four of them didn’t manage to sell the herbs.

At noon, Meng Yan and Ma Chongshan ran back angrily. They started shouting as soon as they entered the house.

“Damn, these people that work in pharmacies are all profiteers! They actually lowered the price of herbs to the lowest! Do they really think we don’t know the true value? These herbs are being bought everywhere. At most, we’ll send them to the capital to sell after the city gates are opened!” Ma Chongshan deliberately shouted at the top of his lungs.

“That’s right. I’ve never seen such a bully! If we had known earlier, we would have found out who was buying herbs. We could have sold them to that big client and earned more!” Meng Yan said angrily.

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng also returned with gloomy expressions. As soon as they left the courtyard, they heard Meng Yan and Ma Chongshan’s words and joined them in cursing the buyers.

After the four of them were done scolding, they went to the kitchen to cook.

Next, Li Xiaoran and the others went around peddling herbs again, but the other party’s prices were each lower than the last, causing the group of people to scold them again when they came back at night.

When night fell, the four of them washed up and went to bed.

As night tell, a few dark figures sneaked in.

As soon as these people arrived, they ran towards where Luo Cheng and the others had stored the herbs.

After cutting open some sacks with a knife and seeing that there were really herbs inside, these black people secretly sneaked out again. After they left, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng suddenly opened their eyes.

“Husband, they’re already gone!”

“Yes, I feel it too! It seems that someone will come looking for me tomorrow!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.

This time, the couple could sleep peacefully.

Sure enough, early the next morning, not long after the four of them got up, someone came looking for them.

The four of them looked wary when they heard that someone wanted to buy their herbs.

“How much are you offering? Let me tell you, we’ve asked about the price of the herbs! The herbs we sent over this time have been bought in large quantities by many people recently. There’s as much as you want, so don’t try to lower the price and trick us!” Li Xiaoran asked warily.

The person who came was a middle-aged man. He wasn’t the person Li Xiaoran and the others had seen last time.

Therefore, Li Xiaoran was also very hesitant about rejecting this person.

Luo Cheng had the same suspicion, but he trusted his judgment more.

The other party had been following them for so long, so they wouldn’t let anyone else take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, the middle-aged man in front of them must be one of them.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “As long as the price you give is suitable, we won’t ask for a higher price! That’s how business is. This way is fair for everyone! It’s too unfair for you to keep lowering the price just because the capital’s city gate isn’t open!”

The middle-aged man also knew that these people were furious, so he smiled gently.

“Don’t worry. We’re the people who have been collecting herbs recently! As long as the herbs in your hands are what we need, the price will definitely satisfy you! ”

After Luo Cheng and Ma Chongshan exchanged looks, Ma Chongshan understood.

“In that case, examine the goods first and we’ll give you an honest price! As long as the price is reasonable and you’re satisfied with the herbs, this business deal will be settled!”

“Sure! That’s what I want!” The middle-aged man said with a smile.

Just like that, Ma Chongshan brought the middle-aged man to the place where the herbs were stored to check.

These herbs were real herbs. Meng Yan had asked her friend to transport them from elsewhere.

Because they had really been transported from elsewhere, these people couldn’t find any problems when they investigated.

Therefore, those people secretly observed for a long time and confirmed that it was really herbs before sending people over to negotiate.

The middle-aged man checked every bag of herbs carefully.

After confirming that there were no problems with these herbs, the middle-aged man told them the price.

The four of them acted happy when they heard this price.

“Not bad. We’re very satisfied with this price! It seems that we’re destined to become business partners!” Ma Chongshan said.

The middle-aged man smiled and quickly took out the money to buy herbs.

The transaction was completed.

After that, the middle-aged man called a carriage over and dragged away all the herbs in the house.

After sending these people off, Luo Cheng and the others immediately packed their things and pretended to rush home.

After night fell, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng changed their clothes and quietly returned.

With Zi Cheng and the others secretly watching, they found the place where the other party had temporarily placed the herbs.

“How is it? Didn’t they come out after the herbs were sent in?” Luo Cheng asked in a low voice.

Zi Cheng nodded and said, “I haven’t seen anyone come out since these carriages entered the house!”

“How strange! Logically speaking, the other party shouldn’t have let us follow them so easily!” Luo Cheng said curiously..
