Chapter 36 (1/2)
Chapter 36 – A Person That Doesn't Want Face is Unrivalled Under the Heavens
Su Lingsheng tightly fixed her gaze on Ji Fengyan, the depths of her eyes filled with a cold light of disbelief.
No matter what, she never thought that Ji Fengyan's luck would unexpectedly be so good as to open a Luminous Moon Ore that had never appeared in Ji City before!
What was even more ridiculous was that this Luminous Moon Ore was actually used by the store's manager as a foot-cus.h.i.+on stone all along!
Even an idiot would also know about the price of a Luminous Moon Ore.
Any time that a Luminous Moon Ore appeared, it would startle the apothecaries from all directions into action. If it could be said that all of the previous ores were important to mages, then the Luminous Moon Ore that could increase the grade of a medication was a treasure that apothecaries dreamed about!
In the entire empire, the total amount of Luminous Moon Ores didn't exceed ten. Each one's bulk was pitifully small, but the price of every one… Was already not what gold coins could measure!
Today, those Luminous Moon Ore were already divided amongst several apothecaries. Even with Su Lingsheng's status as the Eldest Princess' attendant, it was only under certain coincidental circ.u.mstances had she seen one of them.
The appearance of a Luminous Moon Ore determined Su Lingsheng's utter defeat.
This loss had absolutely no way to be disputed!
Su Lingsheng's face was like cold ash, her arrogance and self-confidence completely shattered.
The manager off to the side trembled like a shaking sieve. This time, he already had no way to change the situation.
Throughout the entire store, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everybody was very clear. This time's gamble was won by Ji Fengyan. A win without any doubts, a completely crus.h.i.+ng victory!
Ji Fengyan took her time as she appreciated Su Lingsheng and the manager's unsightly expressions. Under the eyes of the crowd, she languidly took a stool from the side and sat down in front of Su Lingsheng with a bright smile.
”Then right now… Su Lingsheng, shouldn't this be the time when you carry out our agreement?”
