Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Chapter 49 Lou Zhongyu meets his new boss

Ji Nuan fished out a wet handkerchief from her sleeve and slowly wiped her hands. Her gaze fell on Jun Xianlan, whose chest was exposed and soaked in the medicinal juice. She smiled and said, "My acupuncture technique is called the Thirteen Needles of the Azure Sky. It complements the Yellow Springs Poison perfectly!"

"Thank you, Miss Ji." Jun Xianlan seemed quite uncomfortable as she was in the slightly turbid medicinal juice.

"Don't bother! Mr. Jun has paid the medical fee, so I will do my best." Not everyone can afford to buy a whole building.

Ji Nuan took out a roll of silver needles from her sleeve and said to Doctor Chen, "I'll go a little slower. Doctor Chen, please pay attention to the order of acupuncture. From tomorrow on, you will be the one to perform the acupuncture."

Doctor Chen nodded repeatedly, feeling very excited.

As Ji Nuan finished speaking, her movements were fast and steady. Each needle landed accurately on the acupuncture points on Jun Xianlan's body, and each needle also used a little bit of supernatural power.

Jun Xianlan soaked in the medicinal juice, feeling the subtle sensation of the silver needle piercing her skin, and the warm breath slowly flowing through her body.

"Each of these Thirteen Needles of the Blue Sky has its own unique function," Ji Nuan explained to Doctor Chen as she performed the acupuncture. "They work together to guide the flow of Qi and blood in the body, eliminate toxins, and restore balance."

Doctor Chen observed Ji Nuan's every move intently, afraid of missing any details.

As the silver needles were inserted one by one, Jun Xianlan's expression gradually softened, and her muscles, which had been tense due to the poison, slowly relaxed.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Okay, that's all for today." Ji Nuan pulled out the silver needles one by one, then carefully wiped them clean and put them back into the needle bag. "Mr. Jun, you should have a good rest. We will continue tomorrow." Ji Nuan said to Jun Xianlan with a smile, then turned around and was about to leave.

Jun Xianlan called softly, "Miss Ji, please wait a moment. The owner of Fusheng Tower should be arriving soon. Why don't we meet him together?"

"Okay!"

Soon, Ji Nuan finished drinking a cup of tea, and Jun Xianlan resumed his gentle and graceful demeanor and walked out slowly.

"Miss Ji, sorry for the long wait." Jun Xianlan's voice was as gentle as jade.

Before he finished speaking, Mo Cong led a middle-aged man into the house.

"Young Master, Manager Lou has arrived." Mo Cong reported respectfully.

"Lou Zhongyu greets the young master." The middle-aged man had a gentle appearance and elegant temperament. He bowed to Jun Xianlan.

"Boss Lou, from today on, Miss Ji will take over as your new boss." Jun Xianlan raised her finger and pointed in the direction of Ji Nuan, "Go and pay your respects."

Lou Zhongyu didn't look surprised at all, obviously he had received the news from Mo Cong in advance.

He turned around and bowed to Ji Nuan again, "Boss Fushenglou, Lou Zhongyu greets the new owner."

"No need to be so polite, Shopkeeper Lou." Ji Nuan gently helped Shopkeeper Lou up and said gently, "Fushenglou is still operating as usual. I hope Shopkeeper Lou will take the trouble to work hard."

Here, when subordinates meet their superiors for the first time, they want to win their hearts and show their respect, so they seem to give a gift. Ji Nuan thought for a moment, then pulled out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Shopkeeper Lou. "This is a gift, Shopkeeper Lou, please don't despise it."

Lou Zhongyu looked at the small porcelain bottle. Although he didn't know what was inside, he took it and bowed to thank him, "Lou Zhongyu thanks the new owner for his kindness!"

"Shopkeeper Lou, let me help you see what good stuff it is!"

Shopkeeper Song was already familiar with Shopkeeper Lou, having visited Fusheng Lou before for tea and reading. Half-jokingly, he snatched the small porcelain bottle from him, opened it, and sniffed it. He also wanted to know if Ji Nuan had created a new medicine.

"What kind of medicine is this? Old Chen, can you help me take a look?"

After all, Shopkeeper Song was not a real doctor, so he naturally couldn't tell what the pills were for, so he asked Doctor Chen to help him identify them.

Doctor Chen took the porcelain bottle, sniffed it, poured out the pills, and examined them carefully. Finally, he shook his head and sighed, "I can only identify two herbs. I can't be sure what the effect of this pill is."

"Old Chen, even you can't see it?" Shopkeeper Song was stunned. Doctor Chen's medical skills were superb, comparable to those of the imperial physicians, but he was also stumped sometimes.

Jun Xianlan turned to Ji Nuan and asked curiously, "Miss Ji, please tell me what's in this porcelain bottle."

Ji Nuan looked around at everyone and smiled: "This is the detoxification pill."

"Anti-drug pill?" Shopkeeper Song and Doctor Chen were both surprised when they heard this. They hadn't expected that this black, seemingly ordinary pill could actually be an anti-drug pill.

"Yes, the detoxification pill." Ji Nuan continued, "It can cure hundreds of poisons, and it can also alleviate rare poisons like Huangquan."

"Miss Ji has such a good thing in her hand, why don't you sell it at Ping'an Medical Clinic? Is it because I did something wrong that made Miss Ji unhappy?" Shopkeeper Song showed resentment on his face. There was no detoxification pill in the batch of finished medicines that Ji Nuan brought in the afternoon, and she had never mentioned the detoxification pill in front of him.

Why does it smell like old white lotus?

Ji Nuan chuckled softly, a sly look in her eyes. "Shopkeeper Song, you're really wronging me. This detoxification pill was just made not long ago. The herbs needed are rare and hard to find, and it takes a lot of time and effort to make. I want to keep the few pills I have for emergencies. How can I sell so many?"

Shopkeeper Song glanced at Shopkeeper Lou, his face distorted by jealousy. His usual reserve vanished completely, and he shamelessly said, "You've just met, and you've given Shopkeeper Lou a detoxification pill. Our friendship is worth at least one, right?"

As the object of envy, Shopkeeper Lou hadn't expected his new owner to give him such a precious gift. Deeply touched, he secretly resolved to work even harder to manage Fushenglou and live up to his new owner's high expectations. Under Shopkeeper Song's watchful eye, he carefully placed the small porcelain vase in his arms.

Ji Nuan couldn't help but laugh. She looked at the slightly exaggerated expression on Shopkeeper Song's face, feeling both amused and warmed. Although Shopkeeper Song's words were a bit of a joke, they were also a recognition of her medical skills.

"Shopkeeper Song, you're too kind." Ji Nuan smiled and shook her head. "How can the friendship between you and me be measured by a mere detoxification pill? It's a priceless treasure."

Shopkeeper Song refused to let go of the topic and continued to ask, "So, since we are such a good friend, what good things are you going to give me?"

Ji Nuan was helpless and had to rummage in her sleeves until she finally pulled out a small porcelain bottle.

She handed it to Shopkeeper Song with a smile and explained, "This is Life-giving Water. Its value lies in its powerful ability to stimulate medicinal properties. Just two drops are enough to release the medicinal properties of herbs to the maximum extent. It has immeasurable value for making medicine and healing wounds." Ji Nuan didn't dare to say directly that it had the miraculous function of saving lives and strengthening the body. She was afraid of being hunted down by royal families from various countries.

Shopkeeper Song quickly took it and smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

"Miss Ji."

"Miss Ji."

Two voices sounded almost at the same time.

Ji Nuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Jun Xianlan and Doctor Chen looking at her expectantly, with "I want it too" clearly written on their faces.

Ji Nuan had never expected that Jun Xianlan and Doctor Chen also had such expectations. Helplessly, she took out two bottles of vitality water from her sleeve again and handed them to them respectively.

"This vitality water is also very difficult to obtain, and I don't have much here."

Jun Xianlan and Doctor Chen took the vial, their faces lit up with surprise. Ji Nuan's medical skills and pharmaceutical preparation techniques were extraordinary, so receiving her gift of medicine was naturally a blessing.

"Thank you, Miss Ji!" The two spoke almost at the same time, their gratitude overflowing with words.

Ji Nuan waved her hand gently and didn't want to stay any longer. "It's getting late. I'll take my leave first."

"We should get back to work."

So everyone said goodbye and left.
