The School Beauty’s Super Rogue

Chapter 1160 - 1155: One Hundred Million

The medicinal herbs Qin Hao mentioned are not only numerous.

Their properties are also extremely complex.

Some are cold in nature, some are hot, some are neutral, and some are highly toxic.

Handling such a large number of herbs can be quite troublesome.

So, what exactly are Qin Hao’s intentions in purchasing them?

After all, he is merely a novice alchemist.

Could it be that he has some worldly master backing him?

Suddenly, Chu Head analyzed in his mind, already pinning Qin Hao as a wealthy young master.

Qin Hao smiled shyly: "Buying some in advance, just in case."

"Alright, brother, come with me."

Chu Head led the way in front, Qin Hao followed behind, and the two strolled through the flea market while chatting.

Along the way, Chu Head introduced the origins of the flea market.

It turned out that this market has existed for many years.

At that time, it was managed by the Immortal Race, especially provided for the loose cultivator alchemists as a place for communication.

Later, the Immortal Race perished, but the flea market continued, with the management changing to people from the Ancient Martial Family.

After Qin Hao understood the basic rules and background, the two arrived in front of a stall.

"Younger Brother Qin, the few herbs you need are all here, take a look for yourself," Chu Head pointed to several herbs on the stall and said.

"Alright." Qin Hao nodded lightly and began to examine them carefully.

With some free time, Chu Head started chatting with the stall owner.

"Old Chu, thanks for bringing me more customers again!"

"Old Li, we have been friends for so many years, no need for pleasantries. Besides, this customer of mine is very picky, I’m just helping to guide the way, whether the transaction is successful depends on the customer himself."

"Haha, still, I should thank you."

"You’re welcome. By the way, Old Li, I heard there’s a treasure that appeared recently at Xu’s Shop?"

"Wow, your dog nose really is sharp, the treasure has only been around for less than two hours and you already know about it?"

"Stop wasting time, hurry and tell me what it really is..." Chu Head’s face was being overwhelmed with urgency.

As a local expert, it’s crucial to have control over all the information.

The stall owner, Old Li, glanced at Qin Hao, saw that he was meticulously selecting herbs, and then leaned closer to Chu Head’s ear, whispering: "It’s a Thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng, snatched from Beyond the Pass by Young Master Xu..."

"Thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng!" Chu Head couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Shh!"

Old Li immediately pulled at him, motioning to speak quietly.

Chu Head covered his mouth, his eyes still filled with astonishment.

Yet it was no wonder.

For Blood Ginseng is already rare, not to mention aged ones.

Under normal circumstances, a several-decade-old Blood Ginseng is already considered precious.

A hundred-year-old one is even seen as a legendary treasure.

As for a thousand years?

What kind of level is that?

It’s no wonder Chu Head was so surprised.

"Looks like with this Blood Ginseng, the status of the Xu Family will be stabilized again!" Chu Head managed to suppress his emotions, speaking with some sighing.

Old Li also sighed: "Yes, indeed, but the Xu Family is quite decent towards us. Having them manage this place couldn’t be better."

As they conversed to this point, Qin Hao held three herbs in his hand: "I’ve selected..."

Old Li and Chu Head exchanged glances, moved over and smiled: "This esteemed guest has quite the discerning eye. This Mare’s Tail and Yellow Moss are both twenty-year-old..."

"Stop." Qin Hao waved his hand to interrupt: "Both the Mare’s Tail and Yellow Moss are ten-year-old, I’ll offer one hundred thousand, and the Yuxiang Leaf, though its color is plain, it’s manageable. I’ll give five thousand. In total, it’s one hundred and five thousand."

As he finished speaking, Old Li was still in a state of bewilderment.

For a long while, he turned his head, looking at Chu Head with an astonished expression.

Chu Head shrugged: "Old Li, don’t bother with those tricks, Younger Brother Qin is a professional, you can’t deceive him."

"Alright." Old Li felt defeated. He initially regarded Qin Hao as a lamb for slaughter.

Unexpectedly, before he could even wield the knife, he was countered.

A tragedy indeed.

After completing the transaction, Qin Hao put the herbs into his bag and asked: "I smell a rich aroma here, does Brother Li have any treasures hidden?"

Old Li was taken aback, stepping back: "Little brother, how did you discover this?"

Qin Hao smiled: "The scent."

"The scent? It’s impossible, I clearly used cedar boxes to block the aroma of the herbs!" Old Li shook his head vigorously.

Qin Hao smiled with silence.

He couldn’t very well say, I saw it with Immortal Technique, could he?

"Brother Li, could I have a look at this treasure? Perhaps I might have the ability to purchase them."

Qin Hao’s words made Old Li quite tempted.

He realized that Qin Hao’s demeanor and manners were very excellent, definitely a wealthy gentleman.

Transactions like these are fairly easy to make.

So he nodded: "Alright then, this item was actually prepared for those young masters. But, considering the generous spirit of Younger Brother Qin, I’ll let you have a look first."

Upon speaking, he bent over, took out a stalk from the medicine box.

This grass looked withered, with some yellow leaves, appearing to be on the verge of dying.

But in reality, within its stems and leaves, a subtle light was hidden.

Even from two meters away, Qin Hao could feel the vitality stored within the leaves.

Furthermore, the scent emitted by the leaves was very sweet.

Just a breath, it made one feel as though they had sipped a mouthful of wonderful spring water.

"This is... premium Nine Nether Grass?" Qin Hao’s eyes widened, and his heart was incredibly surprised.

The grass looked like withered weeds on the outside, yet it contained vitality, and was a major discovery at the time.

Because it appeared mysterious, it was named Nine Nether Grass by pharmacists. It was meant to indicate its origin from the flowers and plants of the Nine Netherworld.

And the greatest effect of this Nine Nether Grass is to concoct a Nine Nether Pill.

Consuming this elixir will increase one’s Inner Strength.

Moreover, it greatly benefits the Spiritual Qi within the body.

These insights, Qin Hao obtained from the later records of the Immortal Race.

"Younger brother recognizes this herb?" Old Li was rather surprised.

He obtained this grass by chance, but even after checking many classics, he didn’t know what it was.

Unexpectedly, Qin Hao actually recognized it.

Qin Hao nodded: "We have a medicinal book at home, stating this herb quite clearly."

"Then, what price do you think is suitable?" Old Li became somewhat nervous.

He knew this herb was very remarkable.

But because he hadn’t seen it before, he couldn’t set a definite price.

He was planning to sell it to those rich young masters for this reason.

After all, those young masters have money and enjoy the novelty.

As long as they are satisfied, the price offered wouldn’t be too low.

Qin Hao pondered for a moment, gesturing a number: "1"

"One hundred?" Old Li’s face showed some disappointment.

Could it be that Younger Brother Qin is too ruthless?

Although it’s not Divine Medicine, it’s still a rare herb, one hundred is too excessive.

Unexpectedly, Qin Hao’s expression slightly changed, and he laughed: "Brother Li, you misunderstood, I mean, I can offer you one hundred million."

"What!" This time, not just Old Li, even nearby Chu Head was startled into a cry.
