Chapter 211: Chapter 123: Slapping the Pioneers Dead on the Beach Chapter 211: Chapter 123: Slapping the Pioneers Dead on the Beach Gu Changsheng was busy straight through to dinnerti, only then did he walk out from the small courtyard for preparing dicine, fatigued.
At the sight of the Wenchang Fish, his expression paused abruptly.
“Damn it, where did this co from?”
“Prince Mu had it specially rushed over from Southern Fujian!” Dong Lei looked helpless, twirling a knife in his hand by the large wooden tub that contained the Wenchang Fish, “Lady Changsheng, how on earth should we prepare this fish?”
“Prepare? Prepare my ass!” Gu Changsheng slapped towards Eunuch Yuan Bao, seeking praise.
Damn it, that was Wenchang Fish, a national second-class protected species, nearly ending up in her pot—what a sin!
“Lady Changsheng, why did you hit ?” Rubbing the head where he was hit, Eunuch Yuan Bao was as clueless as a monk confounded about directions. Why was he always the most wronged?
“Yuan Bao, tell your master to stop sending fish.” Gu Changsheng collapsed into a chair, exhausted, letting Xiao Cui massage her shoulders.
“Lady Changsheng, that was a gesture of kindness from my master, we really shouldn’t discourage him like this…” Eunuch Yuan Bao was nearly in tears, so agitated. His master cared so so much for Lady Changsheng; why did she still appear as impenetrable as ever? He felt really sorry for his master…
“Enough, stop your blubbering in front of , I’m already annoyed!” Gu Changsheng cut off Yuan Bao’s self-pity with a wave of her hand, asking, “Didn’t Hu Bingzhi make his dicine available today? How did it go? What were the results?”
Gu Changsheng shouldn’t have brought it up, but as soon as she did, Eunuch Yuan Bao slapped his thigh and burst out, “My lady, you have no idea!”
“I don’t know!” Gu Changsheng nodded, she only glanced over briefly then went back to making dicine—he knew that already.
“Superior! It was superior! That Old Immortal Hu Bingzhi processed superior Panax Pseudoginseng, which caused a stir throughout the city, a swarm of pharmacists circled them like bees to honey, booking the entire Lansheng Building for celebrations, inviting people for drinks, it was almost to the point of beating gongs and drums for a universal celebration.”
At these words, Gu Changsheng frowned, “Superior, huh? Unexpectedly, Hu Bingzhi does have so skills.”
“Exactly, Lady Changsheng, you didn’t see it. Jiao Fangyi really knows how to strut about arrogantly, even managed to piss off Hu Yihai so much he got sick, and now he’s bedridden at ho.” Yuan Bao recounted indignantly. After all, he was once in cahoots with Hu Yihai; seeing him in misfortune, he couldn’t help but feel resentful.
“However, Lady Changsheng, rest assured, I’ve already tipped off the shopkeeper of Lansheng Building, they will surely charge a hefty sum for the food and drinks, I guarantee we’ll fleece Jiao Fangyi and his group good and proper!”
“Uh…” At this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up, “Well done, Yuan Bao! I had no idea you were so skilled at these underhanded sneak attacks, though you’re less focused on your proper duties.”
“Are you complinting or mocking , Lady Changsheng?” Yuan Bao wiped his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Complinting you, of course, don’t doubt it!” Gu Changsheng said with a chuckle, telling Dong Lei to stop fretting about the Wenchang Fish and to hurry up with the al.
Dinner was satisfying, and after listening to Little at Bun recite two articles, Gu Changsheng felt a bit rejuvenated.
“Yuan Bao, did all the pharmacists go to celebrate with Jiao Fangyi and Hu Bingzhi?” While Xiao Cui redressed the wound on her back, Gu Changsheng asked Yuan Bao.
“Let think…” Yuan Bao furrowed his brow, thinking hard, “It seems like there was just one old man with white hair and eyebrows who didn’t go. I even talked to him, but I’m not sure if he’s a pharmacist or not.”
Hearing this description, Gu Changsheng was certain he was referring to Elder Yhan, and she slightly nodded.
“Yuan Bao, go inform Hu Yihai that I will be releasing my dicine tomorrow!” Gu Changsheng said while heading back to the small courtyard for preparation.
“Lady Changsheng, are you planning to work through the night?” Yuan Bao asked, following her.
“Yes, letting them enjoy their false hope for too long would be quite impolite, wouldn’t it? As soone as considerate as , how could I do such an inconsiderate thing?”
“You speak the truth, my lady,” Yuan Bao nodded in agreent before turning to deliver the ssage.
Gu Changsheng’s overnight efforts in the small courtyard for preparation are not worth ntioning.
Early the next morning, Hu Yihai led a group of doctors from Liuzhou dical Guild to wait at the entrance of Gu Changsheng’s small courtyard for preparation.
Although they knew victory was out of reach, they unanimously believed that the least they could do was not to lose their posture.
Upon learning of the movent here, Jiao Fangyi and Hu Bingzhi also rushed over to join in the excitent. Seeing the gloomy expressions of the people from Liuzhou dical Guild, they couldn’t help sneering, “Is it necessary to make such a big fuss? It’s as if it’s sothing serious!”
