Chapter 109: From now on, just sit back and wait to collect money!

Lin Manzhi: "The owner also said that since it's a cooperation, it counts as our own business, he won't sell lettuce anymore, and will intensively cultivate lettuce medicinal plants; from now on they will all be sent to Witch Matriarch Su's hands."

Hearing this, does it mean there aren't any extra now, or that there are only six thousand?

Su Li felt great regret; only when the elixir started selling did she realize just how scarce it was.

She was speechless, and finally couldn't help asking: "Lettuce medicinal plants are so good; how come your owner never cultivated more before?"

Lin Manzhi curled the corners of her mouth: "After all, lettuce medicinal plants are special and not easy to cultivate."

At this moment, Mo Lie had finished counting the gold coins, and he neither too heavily nor too lightly closed the wooden box containing the gold coins.

Many people were counting the lettuce beside them; the six thousand lettuce heads were carefully lifted out by several people and placed into the wooden box that had been brought over.

After settling the money and goods face-to-face, it was time for the house type, Hua Zheng crossed arms and stood up, walking toward the empty box.

Lin Manzhi also stood up and said to Su Li: "This time I received the owner's reward; from now on I don't need to handle delivery anymore—the owner has handed delivery over to that gray male beast behind me, he is a male beast, so please, Witch Matriarch Su, look after him."

Su Li didn't mind at all who was delivering the goods; when leaving, she also urged the Wooden Females to speak more often in front of the owner, so they would cultivate lettuce medicinal plants as soon as possible.

Now that the two of them are sharing profits from cooperation, the lettuce doesn't need to be bought separately with Beast Coins—of course, the more the better!

Su Li only regretted that when signing the contract she hadn't thought to change the six thousand to sixty thousand, and she hadn't noticed, so she told the Wooden Females in front of her the true amount needed to produce the elixir.

Otherwise, the lettuce is so delicious; she could take some for herself to eat—how wonderful!

With a feeling of regret afterward, Su Li once again saw off the Wooden Females, and hurriedly headed toward her own elixir chamber.

There, the eight Shamanesses had already received the news, all gathering at the doorway waiting; upon seeing Su Li approach, they hurriedly surrounded her, each pulling out ten gold coins and holding them up toward Su Li.

They were also willing to spend money to buy the elixir, but of course it wasn't the elixir—it was the lettuce medicinal plants.

Although paying one gold coin for a lettuce feels a bit painful, in the face of absolute deliciousness, the females who always get what they want are willing to pay a high price.

Su Li saw that the elixir still needed them, so she reluctantly agreed; the freshly harvested lettuce, a hundred heads, went to make ten doses of the elixir.

Of those, twenty were for her own eating; Su Li chewed the lettuce, full of juices, and took a deep, satisfied breath.

Eating lettuce relieves thirst greatly, reducing daytime irritability considerably, and the throat no longer feels fiery—just as before, no matter how much water one drank, thirst wasn't quenched until eating lettuce, after which these symptoms were alleviated.

Su Li narrowed her eyes, very satisfied with the lettuce medicinal plants; she left her subordinates to prepare the elixir in the medicinal plant room, and she walked out of the room holding up her bare light gauze skirt.

The waiting attendant female immediately stepped forward with small steps, lowered her head and said: "Witch Matriarch Su, the Third President of the Luo Lai Caravan is waiting for you in the audience hall."

Under the Luo Lai Caravan's Chief President, there are three vice presidents in total; the Third President is Ying Qi, who oversees the Kuangsha City area and is one of the trusted aides of Leitingcheng's Lord Cangqiong.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have entrusted him with such a profitable task of overseeing the caravan's entire region.

Simply put, even Su Li has to give Ying Qi some face; no matter how high a Shamaness's status, in front of the powerful nobles of those mighty races who hold real power, she won't treat them as casually as she would an ordinary male beast.

Thus, Su Li went to meet Ying Qi, feeling reluctant but putting on a smile.

"Good day, beautiful Witch Matriarch Su, may you be blessed with healthy offspring."

Ying Qi placed his right hand on his left shoulder, bowed slightly to Su Li in a standard warrior salute, and when he lifted his gaze, his golden-brown eyes beneath black hair fixed on Su Li.

The smile on Su Li's face faded a little, and she said: "President Ying, what brings you to see me?"

Ying Qi stepped forward and said: "Witch Matriarch Su, regarding the elixir, I would like to purchase fifty doses to bring back and present to our lord."

"Wow! Opening with a demand for fifty!" Su Li frowned at Ying Qi, his gaze sharp and fixed directly on her.

"Forget it," Su Li said, looking at Ying Qi, who couldn't be refused: "The elixir is currently difficult to produce; out of respect for your lord, I'll give you twenty doses for now."

Having gotten what he wanted, Ying Qi didn't linger, quickly agreed to come tomorrow to pick up the elixir, then performed a salute, turned, and left with his subordinates.

Just like that, another twenty were taken off, leaving Su Li with only 570 doses of elixir, and with the Wooden Females' delivery still twenty days away, she felt a headache.

No matter what, next time she will definitely ask the Wooden Females' side for more lettuce!

While Su Li was longing for lettuce, Lin Manzhi felt refreshed.

Good, Witch Matriarch Su knows how to do business; the lettuce trade doesn't need her help and will sell as well as she imagined…

From now on, she can do nothing and just sit back waiting to collect money!

Lin Manzhi is no longer short of money; as usual, when leaving the Wushen Temple, she bought four Spirit Core Repair Elixirs, then followed Mo Lie and Hua Zheng outside.

She had made a lot of money today and needed to get rid of her body odor and change her outfit; this time she didn't go to a small street stall, but followed the two into a rather luxurious shop in Kuangsha City.

This shop occupies a standalone six-story domed building in the prosperous area; inside, the servers are surprisingly attractive females—females without pheromones wear uniform white bustiers with matching sheer long skirts, no veils covering their faces, revealing lovely features.

It's rare to see females outdoors, so Lin Manzhi couldn't help but take another look.

Hua Zheng said this is a shop under the leader of the Central City District, selling everything.

At this moment, the shop had many females and richly dressed male beasts strolling about; the interior was extremely luxurious, with water flowing down the walls into the groves of trees planted beside them, and the walls featured high relief carvings.

Sunlight streamed in, water, green trees, and sunlight combined to form a picture of a refreshing, comfortable desert oasis.

Lin Manzhi clicked her tongue at the wealth required to create such a scene in the desert.

She doesn't know much about Kuangsha City; her only understanding comes from the original novel's Mo Lie, which was very poor, but the worse and more chaotic and dark a place is, the more likely it is to produce astonishing wealth.

In Kuangsha City, five forces control the east, south, west, north, and center; in the original novel, Mo Lie's body was even worse than now, because he is a villain and not described much, and she also doesn't know how he subdued those five forces.

Lin Manzhi followed Mo Lie into the shop while thinking, and the several female shop clerks inside, upon seeing the three figures enter, had their formerly smiling faces drop instantly, turning away as if not to look.
