Chapter 240 Three Changes in One Day
Chapter 240 Three Changes in One Day
Yuan Qi was no longer followed by Steward He, but by four people, two maids, one of whom was a servant and a coachman. Although the four people did not do it on purpose, the people seeking medical advice seemed to have voluntarily made way for them, making them look even more detached.
When Yuan Qi saw Zhou Chang, he was so surprised that he lifted his veil, then he nodded as a greeting: "Why is His Royal Highness Prince Yi here too?"
"I came here to ask for a prescription." Zhou Chang replied, treating Yuan Qi as an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time. "Miss Yuan, you didn't come here just to ask for a prescription, did you?"
Yuan Qi nodded to Yun Hezi who followed Zhou Chang, and then said, "It seems that Your Highness has also heard that Chaotian Temple has a prescription that can cure this epidemic. I just heard about it too, and was thinking about whether I could do my part. Now that Your Highness is here, it should be a natural thing to do."
"Alas..." Zhou Chang shook his head, "Don't say that Miss Yuan's kindness cannot be realized. I just spent a lot of effort, but still couldn't get it."
"Ah? How come His Royal Highness Prince Yi came in person..." Yuan Qi seemed to understand something and immediately turned to Yun Hezi, "Master, how is the negotiation going? Price is not a problem."
Yun Hezi shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid you two will be disappointed."
"Any amount is fine. The ten thousand taels of silver you mentioned just now may not be enough. I can increase the amount as long as the Taoist priest is willing to offer a price." Yuan Qi was sincere in wanting to buy the prescription.
It turned out that Yuan Qi had already offered 10,000 taels when he first came up.
Zhou Chang was ashamed. Just because she had money meant she could do whatever she wanted. Until now, she had never thought of spending money to buy anything. The main reason was that she was penniless.
"One hundred thousand taels." Yuan Qi's tone and expression did not change, as if there was no difference between ten thousand taels and one hundred thousand taels.
Zhou Chang almost swallowed his tongue. The price increased too fast from 10,000 taels to 100,000 taels without any transition.
The onlookers were shocked. A prescription costing ten thousand taels was unheard of, but now it had become one hundred thousand taels. Many people thought they had heard it wrong.
Yun Hezi couldn't believe it either.
Some people in the crowd were so surprised that they couldn't make a sound, but someone shouted from somewhere, "The Taoist priest has agreed, right?"
Yun Hezi also wanted to agree, but unfortunately he couldn't make the decision.
Zhou Chang also felt that something was wrong: "This won't work."
"Why not?" Yuan Qi said as a matter of course, "As the saying goes, 'Money makes the world go round'..."
"The Yuan family has so much money that it can make the 'Ghost Push' do what he wants, right?" Zhou Chang interrupted the second half of the sentence, only then realizing that Yuan Qi was not in a good state today, and seemed to be somewhat restless and irritable.
"How did Your Highness Prince Yi know?" Yuan Qi was surprised.
Yuan Qi once said this as a private joke. There were no outsiders present at the time, but He Xi was still there. Zhou Chang had stayed in He Xi's identity and had an impression of him. This was how he confirmed that the Yuan family was indeed financially strong.
Zhou Chang couldn't answer, so Yuan Qi said, "Then there is one more thing your Highness doesn't know."
"What is it?" Zhou Chang asked stupidly.
"The Yuan family has so much money that it makes people regret it." Yuan Qi said proudly, "Regret why we didn't do business with the Yuan family in the first place."
The more Zhou Chang looked at her, the more he felt that something was wrong with Yuan Qi today: "Miss Yuan, who are you angry with?"
"Ah? No, it's just..." Yuan Qi came to his senses and seemed to realize that he had said something wrong. He quickly restrained his expression and hid his emotions. "I mean, I bought this prescription to give it to His Royal Highness Prince Yi. His Royal Highness has been assigned the task of epidemic control, which is of great importance. The Yuan family also wants to help His Royal Highness."
Now that they were in the spotlight, Zhou Chang couldn't ask any more questions and could only look at Yun Hezi.
Yun Hezi still smiled bitterly, "I am not trying to embarrass His Royal Highness Prince Yi, and Miss Yuan is very sincere. Unfortunately, the more this happens, the more my senior brother... Alas, there is nothing I can do, nothing I can do."
Zhou Chang also didn't want to make things difficult for both sides: "Master, don't make things difficult for me. It's only natural that people outside the sect are not greedy for money. I appreciate Miss Yuan's kindness, but this matter is not something that can be solved with money."
"Why can't silver solve the problem again? Could it be that..." Yuan Qi's emotions, which had just been hidden, were stirred up again, but he stopped talking halfway and turned to Yun Hezi, "Master, how about two hundred thousand taels?"
"Oh my..." Yun Hezi was more anxious than anyone else to agree.
Yuan Qi could naturally see what Yun Hezi was thinking: "Master, do you want to discuss it again? But I have to go back in a hurry and cannot delay here any longer. Please make a decision quickly."
Zhou Chang intuitively felt that Yuan Qi had come here today specifically to buy the prescription. Something must have happened before that, otherwise he would not be so restless and emotionally unstable.
"No amount of silver will do." With a voice like thunder, Yuan Huazi stepped out from behind.
"Ah, the Taoist priest is coming out..."
"The Taoist priest is out again..."
"The Taoist priest is here to diagnose our pulse..."
……
As soon as Yun Huazi entered the front hall, the whole hall was filled with anticipation, and the people who came to seek medical treatment and medicine no longer had the heart to watch the fun.
"What, what is that...?" Zhou Chang couldn't believe his eyes.
Yun Huazi had changed into a Tai Chi Liuhe crown at this moment. The hat covered his bald head, and his white hair on his temples naturally hung down on both sides of the hat brim, gently fluttering in the wind, giving him a Taoist appearance like an immortal.
However, he was still wearing the dark green Taoist robe without any unnecessary accessories. However, the moon-white lotus embroidered on the front was already in full bloom, fully unfolded, and seemed to sway in the dark green pool as he walked.
How could a white lotus on a piece of clothing be alive and change three times a day?
However, before this, Yun Huazi had repeatedly created an invisible gust of wind that could blow her down with just a wave of his sleeves. At that time, Zhou Chang couldn't help but wonder if he had some magical powers.
He could not help but point at the sparkling white lotus on Yuan Huazi's lapel, speechless: "This, this white lotus..., could it be that Taoist Yun Huazi really has magical powers?"
Yun Hezi stood aside and whispered with a smile: "To be honest with you, Your Highness Prince Yi, my cultivation has reached perfection after decades of practice. He could have transformed into an incarnation and ascended to heaven, but he just can't let go of one thing."
"What?" Zhou Chang asked with a stutter.
Yun Hezi smiled but did not answer, and glanced at Yun Huazi's Tai Chi Liuhe Crown.
"Ding, a customer has placed an order for a Tai Chi Liuhe Crown." The prompt sound of the viewpoint system sounded.
Zhou Chang still didn't understand Yun Hezi's meaning, and had no time to care about the orders placed by the customers in the plane.
The viewpoint system couldn't help but prompt: "Are you stupid? Those are three pieces of clothing of the same color and style."
"Ah..." Zhou Chang slapped his forehead. What evil had possessed her?
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Zhong Yu asked from the side.
"Nothing." Zhou Chang glanced at the people around her. No one had the same question as her. She couldn't help but feel lucky that she didn't mention it to anyone at the beginning, otherwise she would have been laughed at.
This Yuan Huazi is truly an extraordinary person.
Although I am a barbarian, everything in the world is just like clouds, but I can't let go of my hair.
Even though he is nearly 90 years old now, he still has to change his clothes three times a day and he takes such great care in his clothes. I really don't know how to evaluate it.
Unfortunately, no matter how Yun Huazi dresses up, he will always be that "bald guy" in her eyes.
