Princess Sets Poison Again Chapter 584: One million taels of medical expenses
Chapter 584 One million taels of medical expenses
Chihong Peak, Qianyun Palace.
The old city lord sat on the lower left chair with a gloomy face, not drinking tea, and tapped his fingers on the table, looking very impatient.
Xu Zhong stood behind the old city lord, holding a few red boxes in his hands, looking very respectful.
Elder Yuan, Elder Feng, Shi Jiu and others were sitting opposite the old city lord, all of them looked relaxed, and they didn't greet him for tea, as if they didn't have this guest, they talked and laughed.
Compared to the respect they showed to the old city lord last time, the attitude of Elder Yuan and others this time is completely different.
The old city lord naturally understood the reason for their change of attitude, and felt even more depressed.
Originally, he was thinking of blaming Fengshen Academy for everything, but he didn't expect that those young disciples actually found them, and successfully rescued all the dolls.
Since they were rescued, they should be sent back to Shengtian City, but they detained them in this Fengshen Academy, which is really deceiving people too much.
They wanted him to come to thank them in person. He didn't want to pay attention to them at first, and wanted to hang them up. Maybe after two days, they couldn't stand it and let them go.
But he didn't expect those family members to go to the city lord's mansion every day instead of making trouble in Fengshen Academy, which made him unable to sleep or eat for the past two days. There was no other way, he could only be cheeky and come to Fengshen Mountain again.
Just when the old city lord could hardly wait any longer, Bu Yangzi arrived with Elder Tu, Bai Li and Mo Beichen.
Elder Feng glanced at the expression on the face of the old city lord, who was about to lose his temper, and whispered to Elder Yuan, "This old man really knows how to pinch. If it's a little late, this old fox probably won't be able to sit still."
Elder Yuan smiled evilly, "It's because he can pinch something, it's Lao Tu's credit."
Elder Feng raised his eyebrows and curled his lips, "That's true."
With Lao Bu's appearance, he really can't do such a tricky thing.
When Bu Yangzi entered the hall, he cupped his hands at the old city lord, "Old city lord, I'm sorry, I'm late."
The old city lord got up with a dark face and said, "It's okay, Elder Bu is busy with work, it's the old man who bothered you."
Bu Yangzi's eyes were deep, he pretended not to understand the voice of the old city lord, smiled and gestured, "Please sit down."
Not waiting for the old city lord to sit down, Bu Yangzi went up the jade steps, walked to the chief seat and sat down.
Elder Tu also sat down on the empty seat next to Elder Su without saying a word.
Bai Li and Mo Beichen stood behind Bu Yangzi from left to right.
The white raccoon glanced at the red boxes in Xu Zhong's hand, and the corners of his lips could not help but sneer.
Could this old fox be any more cunning? Just these few boxes are considered a thank you gift.
Hmph, since he himself is shameless, don't blame her for being rude.
Seeing that everyone was ignoring him, the old city lord was so angry that his chest hurt instantly, but it was not easy to attack, so he could only sit down sullenly.
After Bu Yangzi sat down, he didn't open his mouth to speak, but just drank his tea, as if he just came to drink tea.
Seeing this, the old city lord felt sullen again, but when he thought of his reason for coming, he could only suppress his anger desperately.
The old city lord took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Bu Yangzi and said with a smile, "Thanks to the disciples of your courtyard for helping to save those poor children, I thank you all again."
The old city lord stood up and bowed to Bu Yangzi after speaking.
Bu Yangzi just put down the teacup, and said in a neutral manner, "The old city lord does not need to be polite."
The old city lord's face darkened again, he clenched his fists and took a deep breath before turning his eyes to glance at Xu Zhong.
Xu Zhong understood, and immediately stepped forward holding the box.
The old city lord smiled and compared those boxes, "This is a little gift prepared by the old man, I hope you don't dislike it."
Xu Zhong heard the words and immediately put those boxes on the table next to Bu Yangzi.
Bu Yangzi glanced at those boxes indifferently, "The old city master is polite."
The white raccoon glanced at those gift boxes meaningfully.
It's really a little thank you, thanks to this old fox.
Elder Tu and the others also looked at those gift boxes with disgust.
The old city lord doesn't care if they dislike it or not. If they want him to give a gift, he will bring a gift. It's up to him to bring more or less. They have no reason to dislike too few gifts.
"Your hospital is kind, treating those children's injuries, but this has been troubled for many days, it is really inconvenient to live in your hospital for a long time, this old man wants to pick them up today."
The old city lord didn't want to go around in circles anymore, so he directly explained his intentions.
Bu Yangzi naturally knew why he came, so he was not surprised, he just turned his head to look at the white raccoon and asked, "How are their injuries?"
Hearing the words, the white raccoon immediately bowed to answer.
"Return to Master, those girls' injuries have basically healed under the careful treatment of Doctor Lan."
Bu Yangzi raised his eyebrows and asked pointedly: "Then can they go down the mountain?"
This girl has always been in charge of this matter, so you have to ask this girl if you can let someone go.
The old city lord looked at Bu Yangzi's attitude towards the white raccoon, his deep eyes flickered slightly.
It seems that the First Elder of Fengshen really values his disciple.
"Can you go down the mountain? It's just..."
The white raccoon secretly glanced at the old city owner with a troubled expression, as if there was something unspeakable to hide.
Bu Yangzi wanted to laugh when he saw the white raccoon's expression, but he could only hold back.
"Just what?"
Bu Yangzi followed her to ask a question, and acted with her.
The white raccoon blinked and said innocently, "It's just that they have used a lot of our medicinal materials and elixirs these days, so they owe us the medical expenses?"
Medical expenses?
Bu Yangzi's forehead protruded.
This girl is treating their Fengshen Academy as a medical clinic.
Elder Tu, Elder Yuan and others looked at Bai Li with admiration.
It's still the shrewd girl Bai, who spent so much medicine and energy, it really can't just be so cheap and let this old fox take her away.
The old city lord stared at the white raccoon with a dark face, "I don't know how much medical expenses they owe?"
It was this girl who met Yi Xiang last time and asked him to bring gifts. It was because he didn't bring many gifts, so she wanted to trick him again. He wanted to see how many tricks she could do as a little girl.
The white raccoon raised the corners of his lips harmlessly, "It's not much, we are not a medical clinic after all, so naturally we don't rely on these to make money, we only charge the cost of those medicinal materials, you can give 10,000 taels of silver to a girl .”
Hearing the words, the old city lord's expression turned extremely ugly.
Elder Yuan and the others here were dumbfounded in shock, and the teacup in Elder Tu's hand was even more startled.
One girl is 10,000 taels, and these ninety-eight girls cost 980,000 taels?
Bu Yangzi also frowned.
Will this be too much? It would be bad if it was criticized by others.
Facing everyone's surprise, Bai Li was very calm.
Actually, Master and the others have very little concept of silver. This one million taels of silver sounds like a lot, but it is actually not much.
If the medicinal materials and elixir they used were sold at an auction house or a pharmacy, it would cost far more than one million taels of silver. As long as she gave him one hundred taels, it was considered very cheap for him.
After a while, the old city lord looked at the white raccoon with a cold face and said, "This person is 10,000 taels, isn't it too much?"
This girl is clearly blackmailing him.
The white raccoon sneered disdainfully, "The old city lord was joking, we paid you at the cost price, a girl has to use up one bottle of our blood pills a day, this is already the third day, it is calculated on the basis of three bottles per person If so, it must be 15,000 taels of silver. I am not talking about this 15,000 taels of silver. You can go to the pharmacy in Shengtian City, or go to the Banyue Pavilion auction. How much money."
If it was outside, a bottle of blood pill might not be able to buy five thousand taels of gold, let alone five thousand taels of silver.
The old city lord's face froze.
He knows about pills and medicines, they are all priceless things, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them.
However, although the price of elixir is high, the cost should not be so high.
But the old city lord can't say this, because he doesn't know how to refine medicine, and he doesn't know the real cost of refining this blood pill.
"Of course, in addition to blood pills, there are other soups and medicines. I won't tell you about the odds and ends, so let me count 10,000 yuan per person. It's really cheap."
The white raccoon said "very cheap" twice in a row. Elder Tu and the others, who were still surprised by the high price before, felt that the price of the white raccoon had been raised less.
The old city lord's face became more and more ugly. He stared at Bai Li as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
Not waiting for the old city lord to say anything, the white raccoon laughed again, "Besides, the city lord's mansion is rich and powerful, so it shouldn't be possible for him to spend even this little money."
It was really said by the white raccoon, if it was before, taking this little money would be nothing to the City Lord's Mansion. But since the bet was lost, the City Lord's Mansion has lost most of the family's wealth, and the current one million taels of silver is considered a large sum for the City Lord's Mansion.
But now being so excited by the white raccoon, even if the old city lord didn't want to, he could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, and swallow it in his stomach if he felt bitter.
"Xu Zhong, give me the money."
Xu Zhong frowned and looked at the old city owner.
This is one million taels, and this one million taels is the cost of their city lord's mansion for two or three years.
Seeing that the old city lord didn't even look at him, Xu Zhong had no choice but to take out a stack of bank notes from his bosom, counted them back and forth three times, and then handed them to the white raccoon.
The white raccoon stopped counting and accepted the bank notes with a smile.
"Since the old city lord has paid for the medical expenses, I won't keep those girls any longer. Please go out and wait. I'll send them out now."
The old city lord was so angry that his face turned blue, he gave the white raccoon a hard look, and without even saying hello, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Xu Zhong quickly chased after him.
