At this time, the proprietress of Shang Ziwei, Yan Cui, looked at Green Lotus and spoke. Hearing this, Green Lotus's face stiffened, and he hurriedly gave a dry laugh: "Um, proprietress, I don't have that much money. Look, can I pay in installments? I'm willing to pay in installments, even if you add some interest."

Forty-four thousand; he simply didn't have that much money.

"You don't?"

Hearing Green Lotus's words, Yan Cui narrowed her eyes: "Do you mean you want to eat a free meal at Shang Ziwei?"

How many years had it been? No one had ever eaten a free meal at Shang Ziwei.

"No, no."

Hearing Yan Cui's words, Green Lotus hurriedly shook his head: "How would I dare to eat a free meal? But I really don't have that much money right now. I'm willing to pay in installments. Look, how about this? I'll leave my phone here as a deposit."

"I know the rules of Shang Ziwei; I absolutely wouldn't dare to eat a free meal."

"What? Someone is eating a free meal?"

"Who is it? Who has the guts to come to Shang Ziwei to eat a free meal?"

"Look, look, uh, that guy is such a stranger."

While Green Lotus was speaking hurriedly, the people who were eating or had finished eating at Shang Ziwei looked over with curious eyes.

Everyone who looked over had an interested expression.

Someone actually dared to eat a free meal at Shang Ziwei.

"I don't think you look like someone who would eat a free meal, and since you are willing to make amends, it's not impossible."

Hearing Green Lotus's words, the proprietress of Shang Ziwei, Yan Cui, looked at Green Lotus while nodding gently: "Follow me to the kitchen. Today, you will wash the plates at Shang Ziwei. Wash plates for a few days first and see how you perform. If it's okay, I will waive your bill; if not, you will continue washing for me."

"Shang Ziwei also has surveillance. Even if you aren't convinced, you have to be honest, otherwise, you know the methods of the Balance Commission."

"Yes........."

Hearing this, Green Lotus's face turned pale, but he nodded woodenly.

The Balance Commission wouldn't be soft on those who ate free meals; they would be dragged away to dig mines as black slaves. He didn't want to be an interstellar black slave, nor did he want to dig mines.

Being able to wash plates was already quite good.

Thinking of this scene, Green Lotus had a toothache.

This damn little girl, how could she be so ruthless when they met for the first time?

Now that he was going to be forcibly kept at Shang Ziwei and couldn't leave, this performance target seemed to have gone cold.

Thinking of this, Green Lotus looked sorrowful.

Why was he having such a bad year, why was he so unlucky?

While Green Lotus was following Yan Cui to the kitchen with a sorrowful face, Xing turned her head to look at March 7th: "March, look at the good deed you've done."

March 7th: "........"

"I didn't expect that he wouldn't even be able to pay forty thousand credits."

March 7th scratched her head: "I was thinking of fleecing him for a meal and seeing if he had any hidden money or something."

Who could have thought that this peripheral member of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus would really have no money and be taken away to wash plates?

"So what should we do now?"

Xing looked thoughtful: "The only member of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus we can make contact with seems to be this one person. Now that it's like this, it seems we can't make contact anymore."

"Even if we pay now, it's too late; he's already been taken away to wash plates."

March 7th scratched her head: "So are we completely free now? And this proprietress actually didn't look for us."

You have to know, she had already prepared for the proprietress to come looking for them, but the proprietress seemed to ignore them.

"Hello, everyone."

Just as March 7th said this, Yan Cui had already returned to March 7th's side and nodded: "That peripheral member of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus has finally been caught by you; he will be honestly washing plates here for me from now on."

"Ah?"

Hearing Yan Cui's words, March 7th looked confused and looked at Xing.

Did this proprietress of Shang Ziwei know that this Green Lotus was from the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus?

"Do you think that for a guy who often recruits people here in Cloudford, we shopkeepers wouldn't know?"

Yan Cui smiled and said: "However, because of their actions, even the Balance Commission finds it hard to make arrests, and they also know how to judge the situation. So even if we shopkeepers want to find trouble, we can't. You don't understand the horror of the mara-struck, especially since we have also heard that the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization seems to be able to accelerate the state of people becoming mara-struck."

Speaking of this, Yan Cui's expression was grave: "The Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization is shouted at by everyone on the Luo Fu. I don't understand what the higher-ups are thinking, actually allowing these peripheral members to stand in the corners of the streets to recruit people. You are outworlders and don't understand the horror of the mara-struck."

"So don't have any psychological burden. Even if there wasn't this matter with you today, I would use methods to keep this guy here and then punish him properly."

How could they, who opened shops in Cloudford, not have their own information channels?

Especially these old-established shops; they mastered more information channels.

They had long known about the information on this Green Lotus.

Although they didn't understand why the people from the Balance Commission let it go, they would take action as long as they found an opportunity.

"So that's how it is!?"

Hearing Yan Cui's words, March 7th and Xing looked at each other.

There was actually such a thing.

"This guy is inciting you outworlders to join the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus or something; don't take it seriously. Looking at you, you don't seem to want to join either. Otherwise, you wouldn't have done such a thing."

The next second, Yan Cui spoke again, making March 7th feel a bit embarrassed.

"Actually, we made contact with this peripheral member of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus because of the Divine Strategy Mansion's Diviner."

Thinking that this shop in front of them was an old-established one on the Luo Fu, Xing thought for a moment and said: "We need to investigate more information about the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization, so we prepared to make contact. As a result, we didn't expect this guy to deliver himself to our door today."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing this, Yan Cui narrowed her eyes, thought for a moment, and said: "In that case, me keeping this guy here to wash plates might affect you. But it doesn't matter; I can tell you a secret stronghold, which is a secret passage that this guy usually enters and exits."

"Although this guy is shifty every time he goes there, we shopkeepers all know that it should be considered a contact stronghold for this guy and other peripheral members of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization. I have seen several people go there together more than once, and after these people leave, they scatter to several places around Cloudford and the Star-Skiff Haven to recruit other outworlders."

"I don't know what the people from the Balance Commission are doing; it's also possible they have their own plans."

"If you want to make contact with the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization, you can go here."

As she spoke, Yan Cui adjusted the 3D projection of the Luo Fu on her phone, then slid her finger to lock onto a certain place, and then transmitted it to March 7th's phone, making March 7th look surprised.

This was too convenient.

"Then thank you."

Immediately, March 7th thanked Yan Cui.

It was truly "after endless mountains and rivers that leave doubt whether there is a path out, suddenly one encounters the shade of a willow, bright flowers and a lovely village." A proprietress of a shop actually gave such intelligence; it really exceeded March 7th's expectations.

Looking at the location, she found it was still in Cloudford.

The three of them then bid farewell to Yan Cui and walked out of Shang Ziwei.

"The Luo Fu is really..."

Walking out of Shang Ziwei, Xing's expression was strange; she wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

"Almost everyone who can open a shop on the Luo Fu is a long-lived species; there aren't many fools."

March 7th said with emotion: "From this point, we can see that the Luo Fu is not simple, and this proprietress's power is not weak either."

"Then what are we going to do now?"

Xing pondered: "Are we going directly here? Or should we wander around first? Currently, joining this Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization definitely requires copying the 'Thousand-Hand Compassionate Sanctus Medicus Salvation Scripture' five hundred times."

As she spoke, Xing took out the "Thousand-Hand Compassionate Sanctus Medicus Salvation Scripture" that Green Lotus had given her.

This thing was essential for joining the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization.

"How about we go find the big shot first?"

March 7th pondered: "Otherwise, if we go to a stronghold of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus organization now, we will also need to join it. I'm afraid we'll have to copy it on the spot and then join. I think with this time, we might as well wander around in the afternoon and ask Lin Mo."

"Lin Mo should also know about the information on the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus. We'll go directly to Lin Mo for afternoon tea, chat, and build some rapport."

March 7th felt that this information could all be obtained from Lin Mo, and if there was anything they didn't understand, they could also ask.

"Mm."

Hearing March 7th's words, Xing and Welt nodded.

Since that was the case, let's go to the Minghuoshang Society to find Lin Mo first.

With such an idea, the three of them started moving.

While walking, March 7th looked at the "Thousand-Hand Compassionate Sanctus Medicus Salvation Scripture" in Xing's hand and said eagerly: "We should also open this and take a look. I haven't seen the content inside yet."

While March 7th was speaking, Xing nodded. ===== CHAPTER 327 =====
