The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

After finishing his meal, Mo Liuyun chatted with Manager Wang about the supply details. He then took the opportunity to inquire about Wushuang's situation, since he must have heard about the people who had been killed nearby. Mo Liuyun asked, "When I came here today, I saw some constables arresting someone. I wonder if you've heard anything about it, Manager?"

Shopkeeper Wang casually remarked, "I've heard a bit about it. Yesterday, a nephew of the steward of the Qingwang Mansion was killed at the crossroads. I heard he kidnapped someone's sister and tortured her to death. The sister's brother secretly followed him and waited for the opportunity to kill her! But he deserved it. I heard that the beast, relying on being the steward's nephew, has done a lot of bullying and harassing of men and women. Many people have died and people are clapping with glee!"

Mo Liuyun asked, "Has the murderer been caught?"

Shopkeeper Wang said, "I don't think so. If they had caught them, they wouldn't be searching everywhere today!"

Mo Liuyun drank another cup of tea, ate a pastry, and sat for about half a cup of tea's time before taking his leave.

After leaving Wangjiang Pavilion, Mo Liuyun, as usual, bought some pastries for Lian'er and a roast chicken, casually tossing them into her spatial storage. Then she went to a clothing shop and bought several outfits for Wushuang, from head to toe. Thinking about making tofu when she got back, she bought some ready-made tofu glucono-delta-lactone from her spatial storage. Since she could exchange fruits and herbs for spatial coins, she didn't have to worry about running out of money. She also bought a complete set of tofu-making molds; thankfully, they were made of wood, so she only needed to repackage the glucono-delta-lactone. She also bought some brown sugar! Looking at her dwindling silver, Mo Liuyun took out a century-old ginseng root that she had already prepared from her spatial storage. Her spatial storage produced several batches of these ginseng roots every day; she would sell some first to earn some silver.

Mo Liuyun arrived at the pharmacy, named Huichuntang, carrying the ginseng. The waiter greeted him and asked, "Young master, would you like to see a doctor or get medicine? For medicine, please queue on the left; for doctor's appointments, please queue on the right." His attitude was very gentle, which pleased Mo Liuyun. He smiled and said, "Where is the manager? I have a medicinal herb that I wish to sell. Would you mind informing the manager?"

The waiter said with difficulty, "I don't know what kind of medicinal material it is. We usually have fixed suppliers for medicinal materials and do not accept goods from outsiders. However, it is a different story if it is a precious medicinal material!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Liuyun opened the package in his arms, revealing an ordinary wooden box. Inside was a piece of cloth, and on the cloth lay a nearly mature ginseng root!

The waiter was filled with shock: such precious ginseng, clearly of considerable age, was being treated so casually...

The waiter hurriedly said, "This way, sir. I'll go fetch the manager right away. Please wait a moment!"

The waiter hurriedly went to the backyard to find the manager. Before half a cup of tea had been brewed, the waiter was followed by a middle-aged man in his thirties and an elderly man in his fifties, who came rushing over.

The waiter said, "Young master, this is our manager's."

"May we take a look at the ginseng that you wish to sell, sir?" the shopkeeper asked.

Mo Liuyun said, "Please take a look, shopkeeper."

Then they opened the wooden box. The shopkeeper and the old man behind him both twitched their eyelids. They stepped forward and took out the ginseng. The ginseng was shaped like a human, with complete whiskers, and was over a hundred years old.

"How much silver do you intend to sell it for, young master?" the shopkeeper asked.

Mo Liuyun smiled and said, "I wonder what the shopkeeper thinks the value of this century-old ginseng? If the price is right, please keep it; if not, I will have to find another buyer!"

Mo Liuyun didn't bid because Ling'er had already given a rough estimate of a thousand taels of silver, so he knew the value and wanted to see if the other party was honest. If they were honest, they could be considered long-term partners; if they were cunning, there was no need for him to come back.

The shopkeeper said to the old man behind him, "Could you please take a look and estimate its value?"

The old man took the ginseng from the shopkeeper, examined it carefully, and said, "This is a hundred-year-old natural wild ginseng. It has very high medicinal value, and the processing technique is superb, with the ginseng rootlets intact. It is a rare and excellent product, worth a thousand gold pieces!"

The shopkeeper said to Mo Liuyun, "This is Elder Chu, the head of the Imperial Medical Academy. I wonder if you are satisfied with the price, young master?"

Mo Liuyun said, "The price is reasonable, but this is natural wild ginseng, which is priceless. If it were sold to a noble person, then..." Mo Liuyun paused here.

The shopkeeper, being shrewd, chimed in, "Young master, I'll offer 1,200 taels for this ginseng. I hope you'll be willing to part with it. In the future, if there are any other medicinal herbs for sale, I'll certainly offer you a price that satisfies you!"

Mo Liuyun was only testing the waters, but he was surprised to find that he had received two hundred more taels of silver. He was overjoyed, but he did not show it on his face and said, "Then let's sell it to the shopkeeper. It's fate."

After the shopkeeper handed the ginseng to Elder Chu, he led Mo Liuyun to the counter to settle the payment. Mo Liuyun asked for twelve silver notes, each worth one hundred taels. After receiving the notes, the shopkeeper asked, "My surname is Zhao. May I ask your surname, sir? Do you have any other medicinal herbs?"

"My surname is Li. May I ask what kind of medicinal herb the shopkeeper is looking for? Would you be so kind as to tell me?" Mo Liuyun asked.

The shopkeeper said, "To be honest, I have a friend who is suffering from severe poisoning and is looking for an antidote. He is missing a snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain and a century-old purple lingzhi mushroom to use in the medicine."

Mo Liuyun said, "I will inquire about it for you when I have time, and I will inform you if I have any news."

Manager Zhao bowed deeply and said, "If you have any news, please let me know as soon as possible. No amount of money is a problem!"

Mo Liuyun said, "Shopkeeper, you're too kind. Here, I have two antidote pills. I'll give them to you today, in the hope that they will be of help to your friend."

Mo Liuyun was thinking to himself: Please don't die! I'm still waiting to grow snow lotuses to sell to you! You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

The shopkeeper took the medicine bottle without taking it seriously. Ordinary antidote pills were useless against the master's poison. Only the Wuji Pill could barely suppress it, but the Wuji Pill was already priceless and unavailable. The only one in the palace had been taken by General Mo's wife, and the master had only obtained two. In the past two years, he had barely managed to suppress it, but it was only a temporary solution.

But since the young master had kindly given him the medicine, Zhao thought he should take it to Elder Chu to have him identify its properties. So he took the medicine bottle to the backyard, where Elder Chu was transferring ginseng to a jade box to effectively prevent the medicine's effects from spreading. Seeing Zhao with the bottle, Elder Chu asked what it was. Zhao replied:

"I was just asking that young master if he knew of any Ganoderma lucidum or snow lotus for sale after the elder was poisoned. When he heard that someone was poisoned, he kindly gave me two antidote pills. Could you take a look and tell me what grade they are?"

Old Chu took the bottle, and the moment he opened the cap, the aroma of the pill wafted out. Old Chu's eyes lit up, and his hands began to tremble with excitement.

Seeing this, Manager Zhao asked, puzzled, "Old Master Chu?"

Old Master Chu poured out one pill from the medicine bottle, smelled it, and became even more agitated. He put the pill back into the bottle and grabbed Manager Zhao, asking, "Where is that ginseng-selling young master? Has he left?"

Manager Zhao said, "It's been about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea since you left. What kind of medicine is this? Why are you so agitated?!"

Elder Chu said, "This is the Limitless Pill! It's a pity the person is gone!"

Shopkeeper Zhao was so shocked he almost jumped up, exclaiming, "What?! Limitless Pills?!?!" Inwardly, he was furious: Limitless Pills, worth a fortune, are being given away for free, two at once!! And yet they're selling ginseng for 1200 taels of silver?!

If Mo Liuyun knew, he would definitely complain: Nobody told me this thing was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver?! This thing costs 100 space coins to buy a bottle!
