After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Wen Peiji made an appointment with the wealthy businessman at noon the next day.

Yuan Ge and Xu Chengjin accompanied Wen Peiji as his servants. Both of them were dressed in a low-key manner, with their heads slightly lowered and their backs bent, which looked quite interesting.

It's just... Wen Peiji glanced at the two of them, frowned slightly and asked with some disapproval, "Where's Song Wenyuan? Why doesn't he take care of his own business?" That kid always looks indifferent, which always makes people feel uncomfortable...

Yuan Ge, however, looked calm and explained concisely, "He's busy, so he doesn't have time?"

"Is Lord Song busy, who stays in Luofengxuan every day doing nothing under the pretext of recuperating?" Wen Peiji was so angry that he laughed, and suddenly he felt that this sentence was particularly familiar... At that time, he had just returned to Shengjing, and his father invited this girl and Song Wenyuan to the mansion for dinner. The girl came back by herself, and when asked, she gave the same excuse, that he was busy and had no time.

Thinking about this, Wen Peiji looked at Yuan Ge suspiciously and guessed uncertainly, "You didn't... tell him at all?"

Yuan Ge chuckled, "Well, I didn't say."

...As expected. When he saw Xu Chengjin beside Yuan Ge, all his earnest nagging was swallowed back. In the end, Wen Peiji just shook his head helplessly and took these two idiots into his own herbal medicine shop.

The other party had been waiting for a long time at that time.

The rich businessman's name was Xiang Liangcai. He was indeed born with shifty eyes, a bamboo-like figure, and sharp eyes. When he looked at people, he looked like he was evaluating the value of a piece of goods, which made people feel a little uncomfortable. After the two sides finished their greetings, Xiang's eyes accidentally passed over the two servants. He was stunned, and his eyes suddenly became particularly obscene. He stared at Yuan Ge and praised him with a hint of meaning, "Master Wen is really lucky. The servants around him are all very handsome..."

Xu Chengjin's face turned cold. Wen Peiji stopped the two of them and led the wealthy businessman Xiang to sit down. He then laughed and said, "You two clumsy guys, what's the point of a handsome servant? Being efficient is the right thing to do... Brother Xiang, don't you agree?"

Xiang Liangcai laughed and said yes, but his eyes were still glued to Yuan Ge, examining him from head to toe, and from toe to head. After a while, he smiled and waved, "You, come over and pour tea."

This time, even Wen Peiji's face turned cold. Xu Chengjin had already taken a step forward, but was stopped by Yuan Ge - the deal had not been negotiated yet, it was really not appropriate to offend others and destroy his own business at this moment. It was just a matter of pouring tea, could he let others bully him?

She nodded her head and poured tea. Just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by the other party. The bamboo-like figure huddled in the large nanmu chair without any manners, like a scarecrow wrapped in brocade clothes. The scarecrow seemed to be missing arms and legs. She couldn't reach the cup on the table beside her, and could only wave at Yuan Ge, with a condescending look as if it was natural. "Don't you know how to bring it to me? Is this how you serve Master Wen on weekdays? Brother Wen, I'm not saying anything bad to you, but you can't be too easy on the servants. You have to reward them when they deserve it and scold them when they deserve it. This rule must be established. If it were my followers, they would have been driven out and knelt down long ago. How could they be so lazy!"

After saying that, he glanced at Yuan Ge and said, "You, bring it to me."

Yuan Ge's expression did not change. He leaned over and held up the teacup with both hands. The other party stretched out his hand to take it, and a lewd look gradually appeared in his eyes. In the blink of an eye, the teacup had fallen steadily into his palm. As for the other party... he had already withdrawn his hand, bent over, and smiled slightly, "Sir, please drink enough." The man was as thick as a bamboo pole, with cloudy eyes and lewd expression, lack of energy and internal deficiency. It was obvious that he was addicted to alcohol and sex. There was really no need to tear his face to deal with him.

Yuan Ge escaped easily. The other party looked at the teacup in his hand and his face turned cold, "You don't know what's good for you——"

"Brother Xiang, are you still not satisfied?" Wen Peiji suddenly interrupted him before he finished speaking, "Brother Xiang, if you are not satisfied with the tea poured by this servant, how about I pour it for you myself?"

Wen Peiji leaned back in his chair with a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold as he looked over, and his lazy voice had a heavy sense of oppression, like a warning of "Don't refuse a toast and drink a forfeit".

Xiang Liangcai was slightly stunned, and his arrogance instantly disappeared without a trace. He quickly made a way for himself and said with an apologetic smile, "No, this is not possible. I just saw that this little brother was reckless, so I wanted to teach him a lesson on behalf of Brother Wen."

"My servant, please don't worry about it, Brother Xiang." Wen Peiji changed his posture, with a smile on his face. "I heard that Brother Xiang has been very busy these two days. There are so many clinics and drug stores in the city to visit. I won't waste Brother Xiang's time. Let's talk about business. I am indeed interested in Purple Leaf Polygonum Multiflorum. Brother Xiang, name a price. If it's suitable, I will buy it on the spot. If it's not suitable, we can't make a deal. We can cooperate again next time if there is a chance. What do you think?"

"Excellent, excellent..." Xiang Liangcai laughed, his big eyes becoming narrow slits because of his expression. He fumbled to take out a square carved wooden box from his arms, held it in his palm and stroked it again and again like a treasure, then gently placed it on the table beside him and patted it, and introduced it seriously, "This is the purple-leafed Polygonum multiflorum that Brother Wen mentioned before, more than a hundred years old... Brother, you know, this kind of thing has different prices in different places. I'm new to Shengjing, and I don't know the prices in Shengjing, so I have to go to a few more places, don't you think?"

Wen Peiji nodded and said, "That's indeed the truth."

After he finished speaking, he did not rush the other party and waited quietly for the other party to make a quotation. As for the wooden box on the table, he just glanced at it lazily, as if he was not very interested.

Xiang Liangcai opened his narrow eyes a little, and his bean-sized pupils moved around behind his eyelids. After a while, he smiled and stretched out his bony palm to gesture. After gesturing, he turned his palm over and gestured again before saying, "Now it has reached this price... But since Brother Wen called me Brother Xiang, for the sake of our brotherly relationship, I will give you a profit of two thousand, how about it?"

He pressed his hand again and again, one hundred thousand, give two thousand, that is ninety-eight thousand taels.

This old guy is really asking for too much.

Wen Peiji picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, then smiled softly, "Thirty thousand."

The other party's expression suddenly froze, and his narrow eyes opened completely, staring at Wen Peiji with a gloomy look, "Brother Wen, are you here to tease me? Or is this how you always negotiate business, Brother Wen? One hundred thousand silver coins, even if you cut it in half, there are still fifty thousand left, but you... Since Master Wen is not sincere, let's not discuss this deal. Goodbye."

After saying this, he pretended to stand up.

Wen Peiji raised his hand with a smile, "Please."
