Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law Chapter 22 - 22 Bid Down

Liu Ergou subconsciously covered his chest, a frightened look on his face.

The shifty-eyed man who saw this looked utterly exasperated. He didn't like n!

Taking a deep breath to suppress his speechlessness, the shifty-eyed man finally spoke.

"Hello there. Allow to introduce myself. My na is Li Dafa!" he said. "I'm a dicinal herb rchant. I saw the herbs in your back basket. Would you mind if I took a look? If they're good quality, I'll buy them!"

Hearing this, Liu Ergou finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Oh, so that's what this is about!"

He promptly handed his back basket over to Li Dafa.

Li Dafa took the back basket, planning to just put on a show of inspecting it. However, he was stunned to find that all the herbs inside were high-quality, wild specins.

A greedy light instantly shone in his eyes. He was ecstatic. This was an unexpected windfall! If he could get these herbs and resell them, he'd make a huge profit. His luck today was incredible!

Suppressing his excitent, he handed the back basket back to Liu Ergou.

"Brother, what's your na?"

"Liu Ergou!"

Li Dafa nodded. "I'll call you Brother Ergou then. I've checked your herbs, and they look fine."

"I'll take them all for the top price of 500 yuan!" Li Dafa declared, patting his chest.

However, upon hearing the price, Liu Ergou snatched his back basket and turned to leave without a second glance.

Seeing Liu Ergou about to walk away, Li Dafa quickly stepped in front of him.

"Hey, hey! If the price isn't right, we can negotiate! 600!"

Hearing the new offer, Liu Ergou still intended to leave.

Watching Liu Ergou's retreating back, Li Dafa once again moved to block him.

He pulled an herb from the back basket and said, "Brother Ergou, I'm not trying to cheat you. This is the highest I can go!"

"Look at your herbs, they're so wilted. They're not worth much!"

Liu Ergou knew Li Dafa was deliberately trying to drive down the price.

He stood his ground and said, "These are wild dicinal herbs, purely wild!"

"You can't get pure wild herbs for such a low price these days!"

Li Dafa just shook his head. "Brother Da Gou, what era are we living in? Who cares if they're wild or not?"

"Haven't you heard what the experts say? There's no difference between wild-grown and greenhouse-grown anymore; their nutritional value is the sa! It's normal for you not to know, but how could I not?"

"Alright then. Why don't you na a price? If I think it's reasonable, I'll take them!"

Liu Ergou didn't waste ti. He simply held up two fingers.

"Twenty thousand. That's my final price. Take it or leave it!"

The high price of 20,000 yuan stunned Li Dafa.

He jumped to his feet and said exasperatedly, "To put it nicely, they're dicinal herbs. To be blunt, they're just a pile of rotten leaves! I'd be taking a loss even if I paid you 1,000 for them!"

"And you have the nerve to ask for 20,000! If you're crazy, then get lost! Don't stand here and waste my ti!"

Li Dafa's words were incredibly rude, but Liu Ergou remained unperturbed.

The next second, Liu Ergou reached into his back basket and pulled out an object that looked like a radish top, covered in dense, fibrous roots.

"Who's ssing with you? You tell , is this wild ginseng not worth 20,000?"

When Li Dafa saw the wild ginseng, he was utterly dumbstruck.

Wild ginseng?! Judging by its appearance, it has to be at least ten years old. 20,000 yuan really wasn't expensive for this. But he absolutely couldn't pay 20,000 yuan. If he did, there would be no profit left for him.

Thinking this, Li Dafa put on a scornful expression. "So what if it's wild ginseng?"

"Didn't I just tell you? What era is this? Wild and farm-grown are the sa thing!"

"The most I can do is 1,000. Take it or leave it!"

Liu Ergou's brow furrowed. The man was clearly trying to lowball him.

With that in mind, Liu Ergou decided not to waste any more words. He shouldered his back basket, grabbed his bicycle, and, with Xiao Rou on the back, turned to leave. He paid Li Dafa no mind whatsoever.

At this sight, a surge of anger swelled in Li Dafa's heart.

He imdiately blocked Liu Ergou's path again, pointed right in his face, and shouted, "Fuck! You hick, you really don't know what's good for you!"

"Don't you know who I am? I'm Li Dafa! I'm telling you right now, let's see which pharmacy in this town dares to buy your stuff! If they do, they're crossing , Li Dafa! And do you know who has my back? Zhang San!"

After his tirade, Li Dafa stared arrogantly at Liu Ergou, expecting him to change his mind.

But Liu Ergou's expression didn't flicker. He just said coldly, "Get lost. A good dog doesn't block the road."

Then he simply walked away.

Watching Liu Ergou's retreating figure, Li Dafa stomped his feet in a rage.

On the way to the next pharmacy, Xiao Rou couldn't help but worry.

"Brother Ergou, maybe we should just sell the herbs to him. I've heard about that Li Dafa and Zhang San…"

Before Xiao Rou could finish, Liu Ergou cut her off.

"Don't worry about them. I've heard of Li Dafa. He's just a thug. Nothing to be afraid of. The important thing is to sell these herbs quickly!"

As he spoke, Liu Ergou arrived at another herb buyer's shop. However, before he could even step inside, the owner shouted at him to go away. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novｅlfire

Liu Ergou didn't say much and just moved on to the next place.

He went to four or five different herb buyers in a row, but no one would purchase his goods. Even when he showed them the wild ginseng, they ignored him and just sent him away.

Sitting on the back of the bicycle, Xiao Rou broke out in a cold sweat from anxiety.

"Brother Ergou… W-what do we do now?"

Liu Ergou didn't say anything, just shaking his head. There was nothing he could do if they wouldn't buy it. One thing was certain, though: he would not sell out to Li Dafa on the cheap!

Just then, however, Li Dafa suddenly popped out from nowhere.

He looked at Liu Ergou and said mockingly, "Kid, see how powerful I am now?"

"It's not too late to change your mind. If you wait any longer, I won't take them even if you beg !"

But even after Li Dafa's taunts, Liu Ergou still had no intention of selling the herbs to him. Instead, he simply turned to leave.

Liu Ergou knew that selling the herbs to Li Dafa now would be the real humiliation. Besides, it wasn't like he was out of options. He could still try his luck at the biggest chain of dicinal herb shops in town. He hadn't gone there first mainly because their prices were a little low, but at this point, he couldn't afford to be picky.

Seeing Liu Ergou leave, Li Dafa quickly rushed to block his path.

"Why the hurry? I'm not finished yet!"
