Upon seeing Qiao Mu’s features clearly, the assistant was cleary startled, and his attitude became even more respectful. “Does Miss plan to purchase herbs?”
Qiao Mu nodded. “Do you have three leaf flower?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” That assistant nodded repeatedly. “How much does Miss want?”
“As much as you have,” Qiao Mu stated nonchalantly.
The assistant was overjoyed. This was a big business deal.
Subsequently, he quickly went to report to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper jogged over and was wearing a benevolent smile like a laughing Buddha.
“Miss, our shop has 5200 plus stalks of three leaf flowers, priced at three spirit currency each. Do you want all of them?”
As three leaf flower was only a mid-rank medicinal material, it was already an astronomical price to sell them at three spirit currency apiece.
The shopkeeper was worried that Qiao Mu would think it to be too expensive. He added, “If Miss makes a bulk purchase, we can do away with the small change and charge you 15 thousand spirit currency.”
Qiao Mu nodded. “Okay.”
The shopkeeper was overjoyed. He quickly told her, “Then please wait inside for a bit as we get the three leaf flower ready for you.”
Qiao Mu waved her hand. “I can just look around by myself. Go do what you have to.”
The shopkeeper smiled widely and quickly headed to the storehouse in the back with the assistant to prepare the three leaf flower.
It was a big business transacation to sell out all the three leaf flower in a single day.
After all, three leaf flower was a mid-rank herb that was still commonly seen. Even though herbs were dwindling in the current state of the world, it was still rather easy to gather them compared to black-rank and heaven-rank herbs.
Since Qiao Mu had nothing to do, she started perusing the store.
This Liangyuan Pharmacy was rather big, with two floors.
The second floor naturally sold more precious herbs.
After making a round through the first floor, Miss Qiao headed up to the second floor to take a look.
All the medicinal materials on the second floor were lined in rows inside transparent crystal display cases. Many were just stored inside jade boxes and labeled with its name.
They would not be shown easily unless the customer was certain that they were buying. Only then would the shopkeeper take out the jade box to present the medicinal material.
After all, if every single pauper came by to look at them without buying, the medicinal effects from these precious herbs would soon dissipate.
Qiao Mu wandered about those display cases without finding anything that struck her fancy.
Just as she planned to leave, she suddenly noticed a drooping plant on an ordinary table next to the display cases.
She quickly walked over and inspected it while clicking her tongue in wonder.
Wasn’t this a heavenly star?
She had once seen it in Long Chuyun’s notes.
The heavenly star liked moisture and shade, and it grew in water. Potting it in dirt like this would make it die faster.
The heavenly star was the main ingredient for concocting black-rank neurotoxins.
This kind of neurotoxin would cause afflicted spiritual cultivators level 10 and below to be caught in an illusion before dying four hours later. They would still be smiling as they died.
Such an important catalyst for concocting neurotoxins was actually tossed in a dirt pot. This truly was squandering a precious treasure.
Miss Qiao circled around the heavenly star and looked up at a nearby assistant. She beckoned him over and said, “Hey, wrap this up for me.”
“Ho, is this for free?” A rather old female voice butted in.
Qiao Mu looked back and saw a mother and daughter duo looking at her from the opposite display case.
