What happened to the anti-superstition campaign? The live studio is full of police officers

Chapter 481 Our Deputy Minister Zhong can also provide close protection for Minister Bai

Sui Liangren felt that if he continued to discuss this matter with Lu Ming, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Sui Liangren snorted coldly and simply asked, "Then tell me, what do you want to do?"

Lu Ming pondered for a moment, then said, "Since Minister Sui is so sincere, then I will accept it without hesitation. I won't ask for more than five hundred Grade 2 Healing Pills."

Upon hearing this, Sui Liangren immediately jumped up in anger: "Lu Ming, why don't you just rob me? Five hundred coins? Two hundred at most, that's all!"

Zhong Yi, who was standing to the side, wanted to stop it, but it was too late. He could only curse the idiot in his heart.

After all, Bai Ningyu was going to the Jiang family to resolve things no matter what, so whatever she gave Lu Ming was just a token gesture since Lu Ming had already earned it.

The key is to pick something that Bai Ningyu can like.

Zhong Yi tried his best to control the urge to roll his eyes. He used to think that the minister was just straightforward, but now he seemed a bit silly.

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "Tsk, look at you, why are you so hot-tempered? Go back and drink some loofah soup to cool down."

After all, he never thought that Sui Liangren would give him so many pills.

Within his expectations, he thought Sui Liangren would only give him one hundred coins, but he didn't expect to earn an extra one hundred. You know what a mess this is. It seems he still lacks experience and asked for too little.

Sui Liangren was about to leave, but before he could even take a step, he heard Lu Ming continue, "There's more."

Upon hearing those two words, Sui Liangren completely lost his temper, pointing at Lu Ming's nose and cursing, "There's more? You surnamed Lu, are you still not done?! You really think you can take advantage of me?! I think you're really desperate for money!"

Lu Ming, seizing the opportunity, continued the conversation, saying, "Minister Sui is right, I am indeed poor."

How can anyone compare to you, Minister Sui, who sits atop the Fan and Jiang families, like a wealthy landlord, rolling in money?

Sui Liangren's veins bulged as he listened. He wondered who this shameless person was who had said that even a dog wouldn't eat a first-grade pill. This person sounded much more extravagant than him, and now he was crying poor. Who would believe him?

Zhong Yi, who was standing to the side, also felt his temples throbbing. Fearing that his minister might fall into Lu Ming's trap again if he wasn't careful, he immediately interrupted, "Minister Lu is joking."

With such skilled alchemists as Minister Bai and her apprentice here, you shouldn't joke about being poor.

If you say there's poverty, then there's no such thing as wealth.

Actually, Zhong Yi really wanted to say, "Your team members have stopped taking Yipin Dan, but our team members are still taking it."

However, upon further reflection, since Lu Ming had already said that even dogs wouldn't eat first-grade pills, if he were to say that his own team members were still eating first-grade pills, wouldn't that be like saying that his own team members were not even as good as dogs? So Zhong Yi swallowed those words.

Sui Liangren gritted his teeth and asked irritably, "What else? Hey, let me make this clear beforehand, there's nothing else you want!"

Sui Liangren was genuinely afraid that Lu Ming would say "five hundred defensive magic artifacts" to him again.

"Hey Lao Sui, your preparations are lacking. Look at other people who come to invite our Minister Bai, they all know to bring gifts, but you don't give a single penny. Aren't you ashamed?"

Hearing Lu Ming say this, Sui Liangren's forehead veins almost bulged: "Didn't I give him two hundred pills?"

I don't have that many on me right now. I'll give them to you as soon as we get to Quancheng. Don't worry, two hundred pills isn't something I'd owe you!

Lu Ming waved his hand and said, "I know, Minister Sui, you're from a wealthy family, you certainly wouldn't owe me any pills."

What I mean is, you gave us our things, but I don't know what you prepared for Minister Bai?

You don't actually think these mere two hundred Grade 2 pills are for Minister Bai, do you?

Minister Bai, an eighth-grade alchemist, would even deign to look at second-grade pills? Only a poor man like me would consider them.

Just as Sui Liangren was about to lose his temper, Zhong Yi stepped forward and said, "Even so, let's exchange these two hundred pills for three Tiger-Subduing Grass stalks. What do you think, Minister Lu and Minister Bai?"

Upon hearing this, Sui Liangren's anger subsided, and a hint of approval appeared in his eyes as he looked at Zhong Yi.

That's right, Zhong Yi's mind works faster. They came to ask Bai Ningyu for a favor, not to ask Lu Ming for a favor. Why should they give Lu Ming something?

Just as Sui Liangren and Zhong Yi thought this statement was clever, Lu Ming shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work."

These three Tiger-Subduing Grasses are appropriate for Minister Lu, but these two hundred pills are for us. After all, we have a vice minister here to personally protect Minister Bai's safety.

“No, our special departments in Quancheng can also protect her safety. I’ll have my deputy minister, Zhong Yi, protect her closely, okay?” Sui Liangren immediately said.

Zhong Yi: "..."
