Chapter 238

But he didn't expect that the situation would turn around! 360,000 taels of silver for the consultation fee?

Calculating this, one Beauty-Preserving Pill was given a price of more than 20,000 taels of silver by others!

Although it was about half less than what the Emperor gave, others provided the materials.

Moreover, selling 360,000 taels of silver in one breath, for Li Lianhua, this absolutely belonged to a high price!

"Thank you, Concubine, for the reward, thank you, Your Majesty!" Satisfied in his heart, a smile hung on Li Lianhua's face, and he thanked Imperial Concubine Liu and the Emperor respectively!

Although logically he should thank the Emperor first, who made this money come from the concubines in the harem led by Imperial Concubine Liu?

"My love, you all are really rich!" Although it was gathered by a group of concubines, 360,000 taels of silver still made the Emperor's eyebrows jump.

It was the first time he felt that these women in the harem were really rich!

"Your Majesty, how could we sisters gather so much money? Even the materials needed to refine the Beauty-Preserving Pills couldn't be gathered!"

"Didn't we also seek some help from our maiden families?"

"Besides, although the silver is not small, the Beauty-Preserving Pill is worth more than its price!"

"If this Beauty-Preserving Pill were placed outside, calling for 100,000 taels, I guess someone would buy it, right?" Hearing Zhu Houzhao's jealous words, Imperial Concubine Liu smiled slightly and explained!

These words made Zhu Houzhao nod silently!

Indeed, so much money, he didn't pay it, and relying on these concubines to pay it was not enough.

Therefore, the maiden families of these concubines all contributed!

Besides, these concubines in the harem, if their beauty doesn't fade, aren't the ones getting the benefits also him?

He couldn't be the one whose beauty doesn't fade, while the concubines in the harem are all aging, right?

For Li Lianhua, the conversation between the Emperor and the concubines in the harem was naturally not something he was interested in.

Therefore, after confirming that he would be given 360,000 taels of silver for the consultation fee, Li Lianhua bid farewell!

The amount of 360,000 taels of silver was not small, and Imperial Concubine Liu and the others actually exchanged it into gold for him!

It didn't matter; gold was also equivalent when he exchanged it!

After leaving the palace, Li Lianhua calculated in his heart.

In these days, dignitaries came to him for medical treatment, and he obtained 100,000 taels of silver in consultation fees.

Plus this time's 360,000. Now, the amount of consultation fees he possessed had reached as high as 520,000 taels or so!

Looking again at the consultation fee he needed to exchange for a treasure chest now, it had reached as high as 250,000 taels of silver each!

Li Lianhua's face was somewhat dark!

Silently complaining in his heart, the price required for this treasure chest exchange was getting more and more expensive!

If the price continued to rise like this, wouldn't he need 1 million, or even 10 million taels of silver to exchange for a treasure chest in the future?

Calculating this way, he was not far from finally being unable to exchange for a treasure chest!

Shaking his head, after Li Lianhua returned to the Lotus Building, he prepared to exchange and see!

520,000 taels of silver, should be enough for him to exchange for two treasure chests, right?

"Woof woof!" However, before Li Lianhua could take action, suddenly, the fox spirit at the door barked twice!

Immediately after, a familiar voice sounded outside the door.

"Is Divine Doctor Li at home?"

Hearing the sound, Li Lianhua temporarily suppressed the thought of opening the treasure chest in his heart, walked to the door and looked, only to see Shangguan Haitang standing at the door!

"Miss Haitang, all is well, right?" Li Lianhua showed a smile and greeted Shangguan Haitang!

Before, when he collected the consultation fees at the Imperial Dragon Villa, Shangguan Haitang knew that he had collected those consultation fees as if performing magic.

At that time, Li Lianhua also said that this was a small secret between the two of them, and asked Shangguan Haitang not to tell others!

To tell the truth, although Li Lianhua and Iron-Clad Marquis almost tore their faces apart now.

However, the two had a small secret, so relatively speaking, their relationship was closer than ordinary people.

"Divine Doctor Li, all is well!" Hearing Li Lianhua's greeting, Shangguan Haitang also clasped her fists and bowed, looking generous and decent!

Guests are guests, Li Lianhua invited Shangguan Haitang into the Lotus Building and personally brewed a pot of Enlightenment Ancient Tea for her!

"Divine Doctor Li, what is this creature?" Coming to the Lotus Building, Shangguan Haitang looked around, and her eyes were also attracted by the two large and small telephone bugs!

Creatures that didn't belong to this world looked very strange!

In order to wait for the Beauty-Preserving Pills to be sent out, Li Lianhua waited for half a month, so this telephone bug mother bug had actually given birth to a small telephone bug a few days ago!

"This, I am a strange creature, called a telephone bug!" Li Lianhua explained casually!

"Telephone bug? What a strange name!" Curiously looking at the telephone bug that looked like a snail but was in a deep sleep, Shangguan Haitang muttered in a low voice.

"Miss Haitang, please drink tea!" At this time, the tea was already brewed, and Li Lianhua reached out and gestured for her to drink!

Regarding the detailed functions of the telephone bug, Li Lianhua didn't mean to explain so much!

After all, he didn't have the intention of giving a telephone bug to Shangguan Haitang, so why explain so much?

"Good!" Just feeling that the appearance of the telephone bug was a bit strange, she paid more attention for a moment!

Hearing what Li Lianhua said, Shangguan Haitang sat down in front of him!

"What a fragrant tea!" Smelling the tea fragrance that came to her nose, Shangguan Haitang widened her eyes, and a look of exclamation appeared on her face.

While speaking, Shangguan Haitang picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The efficacy of this Enlightenment Ancient Tea also shocked Shangguan Haitang!

"Divine Doctor Li, what tea is this? Haitang considers herself to have tasted quite a lot of tea, but has never tasted such immortal tea!" Putting down the teacup, Shangguan Haitang asked Li Lianhua with bright eyes!

It was not just this Enlightenment Ancient Tea that made Shangguan Haitang feel exclaimed.

More importantly, Divine Doctor Li and her godfather Iron-Clad Marquis were very incompatible, but he was still willing to take out such good tea to entertain her?

"This tea is called Enlightenment Ancient Tea; after drinking it, it can make people clear-headed, and more importantly, it can also improve a person's comprehension; I don't have much of this tea left either!" Li Lianhua explained and continued!

"Is that so?" Hearing this, Shangguan Haitang's gaze fell on the tea canister on the side, and she opened the tea canister to look at it by some strange coincidence!

Sure enough, there wasn't much tea left in the canister!

"Divine Doctor Li, thank you for your hospitality!" Such good tea, and there was only a little bit left, but Li Lianhua was still willing to take it out to entertain her, which made Shangguan Haitang incomparably moved!

"No need to thank me; Miss Haitang helped me keep a secret, and I also want to thank Miss Haitang!" Hearing this, Li Lianhua smiled slightly and said indifferently!

He really didn't care; it had been some days since the tea canister was opened, and he had been waiting here for half a month!

Counting the time, he estimated that in four or five days, the Enlightenment Ancient Tea in the tea canister would be refreshed.

Therefore, at this time, the tea was almost at the bottom, wasn't this normal?

"By the way, Miss Haitang, what brings you here?"

After the two drank a few cups of tea, one cup after another, Li Lianhua, although he guessed the purpose of Shangguan Haitang coming to find him, pretended to know nothing and asked Shangguan Haitang!

"Divine Doctor Li!"

Hearing this, Shangguan Haitang put down the teacup in her hand and said: "I came here today on behalf of my godfather; he said, he once asked you, Divine Doctor Li, to buy two Beauty-Preserving Pills?"

"Not bad, these are the two for the Marquis!" Hearing this, Li Lianhua nodded and took out the Beauty-Preserving Pills he had prepared long ago and sent them to Shangguan Haitang!

Although he and Iron-Clad Marquis almost tore their faces apart, the medicine money was paid in advance, so Li Lianhua naturally wouldn't default on these two Beauty-Preserving Pills!

"Good!" Shangguan Haitang nodded and put away the small bottle containing the two Beauty-Preserving Pills!

Logically speaking, after accepting these two Beauty-Preserving Pills, her purpose for this trip was accomplished!

However, Shangguan Haitang, who had completed the task, did not leave, but instead had a hesitant expression and no intention of leaving!

Looking at Shangguan Haitang's appearance, Li Lianhua secretly laughed, but on the surface, he still pretended to know nothing and said: "Miss Haitang, is there anything else?"

"Divine Doctor Li, this, this Beauty-Preserving Pill, I wonder..." Hearing this, Shangguan Haitang was somewhat hesitant and looked very embarrassed!

"Miss Haitang, you want to ask for a Beauty-Preserving Pill for yourself, right?" Looking at Shangguan Haitang's appearance, Li Lianhua could roughly guess her thoughts and asked directly!

The temptation of the Beauty-Preserving Pill to women is no less than your brother being able to grow a few centimeters longer.

Such temptation, really no one can block it.

Shangguan Haitang is also a woman, and now that she is so close to the Beauty-Preserving Pill, it is human nature for her to want one!

"No, it's not asking for, but Haitang wants to ask Divine Doctor Li, if there are any extra Beauty-Preserving Pills, Haitang is willing to buy one!" Hearing what Li Lianhua said, Shangguan Haitang hurriedly waved her hand and said!

Although she was just one of the four secret agents of the Imperial Dragon Villa, Shangguan Haitang also managed the so-called First Villa in the World, and she could take out tens of thousands of taels of silver!

And for the two Beauty-Preserving Pills, how much silver her godfather spent, Shangguan Haitang also knew.

Therefore, she was naturally willing to take money to buy one!

"To tell the truth, I don't have many Beauty-Preserving Pills left in my hand, but if Miss Haitang wants one, of course, no problem!"

Someone willing to pay to buy the Beauty-Preserving Pill, Li Lianhua naturally wouldn't refuse the silver delivered to his door!

While speaking, Li Lianhua took out another one!

"Thank you, Divine Doctor Li!" Seeing this, Shangguan Haitang said in surprise.

After receiving the Beauty-Preserving Pill handed over by Li Lianhua, at the same time, Shangguan Haitang gave Li Lianhua a silver note!
