C731 This Is a Fake Medicine
"Greetings, guests. If you need any medicine, you can tell this humble one. This humble one will look for it for you." The shop assistant greeted them.
Although this was said to the two of them, the waiter's eyes were fixed on Shangguan Jie.
Su Ming smiled faintly. He naturally understood the reason behind this.
Whether it was in the outside world or in the Middle Cauldron World, Su Ming's attire had always been ordinary, but Shangguan Jie was obviously different. His attire was much more exquisite.
It was precisely because of this that the shop assistants in the shop were so different from the two of them.
"Let's take a look." Shangguan Jie waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go and do what you want. Don't worry about us."
Seeing Shangguan Jie's words, the waiter's eyes instantly turned cold. He went back to the counter without saying a word.
Shangguan Jie did not hear it, but Su Ming's ears were shocking. He clearly heard a complaint that was suppressed to a very low level from the waiter's mouth.
"I thought there was a rich man here. What a waste of my time. What bad luck."
Su Ming frowned when he heard what the shop assistant said.
At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the door.
When the two of them heard this, they turned around to look. It was a man in tattered clothes who was forcefully rushing in. However, he was stopped by the two employees of the Hu Pharmacy in order to fulfill his wish.
Seeing that he could not break through the encirclement of the two employees, the man simply shouted, "Hu Sandou, come out! Come out!"
When the employee who had approached Su Ming saw this man, his expression instantly changed.
"Little Wang, Little Li, get this madman out of here!" The staff member shouted.
However, at this moment, the man seemed to have gone crazy. He activated the potential of his body and his skinny body burst out with a huge force. He pushed the two shop assistants who stopped him away and rushed into the shop!
"Hu Sandou, you bastard, you actually sold me fake medicine!" The man screamed, "That is the life-saving medicine I bought for my daughter with everything I have! Do you still have any conscience?! "
"You... What nonsense are you spouting!?" The shop assistant called Hu SanDou said coldly.
At that moment, the commotion caused by the man had already attracted all the other customers in the shop. All of them started discussing, but they did not know what had happened.
Seeing the crowd, the man took out a wooden box from his pocket and opened it.
Among them was half a ginseng!
The man said to the crowd, "Everyone, This is the hundred-year-old Lingzhi that I bought from Hu Clan Pharmacy's Hu Sandou a few days ago. A full thousand taels of silver! I only managed to gather enough money after selling the house in my hometown. It's all because of my daughter's illness! "
"But, who would have thought that the dignified Hu Medical Store would actually sell me a fake ginseng. After my daughter consumed it, she almost fell on the hospital bed forever!"
When these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Those who bought things here were people who did not lack money. They came here to buy things for nothing more than a quality. However, when such a thing happened, it made everyone's hearts uneasy.
It did not matter if the money was lost. If there was a problem with the food, then it would be serious.
For a moment, the surrounding crowd silently put down the medicinal herbs that they originally wanted to buy.
Seeing this situation, Hu SanDou's expression changed. He directly shouted, "Everyone, don't believe him. I don't know this person at all, and I don't have anything to sell medicine with!"
At this moment, the commotion outside finally alarmed the inner hall.
A group of burly men rushed out from the inner hall. Surrounded by them, a middle-aged man slowly walked out.
Seeing the appearance of this man, Hu San Dou shouted as if he had found a life-saving straw: "Manager Li, someone is causing trouble!"
The middle-aged man called General Manager Li was clearly alarmed by this commotion. After hearing Hu SanDou's words, his gaze turned towards the worn-out man.
However, the moment he saw this man, General Manager Li's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise, but he suppressed it very well.
However, all of this did not escape Su Ming's eyes in the end.
"He actually dares to cause trouble at my Hu Medical Store. He's really tired of living!" Chief Chu said with a face full of anger, "Left and right, arrest him for me!"
Hearing that, the five burly men behind him rushed towards the thin man at the same time.
How could the thin man be a match for them? For a moment, they could only slowly retreat and dodge.
Just as the few burly men's fists were about to touch the thin man, Su Ming, who was beside them, moved.
In just a breath's time, everyone only felt an afterimage flash past them. Then, the five burly men were thrown away and landed in front of Chief Chu, wailing in pain.
It was only when Su Ming stopped that Chief Chu saw the person who attacked clearly.
"Impudent!" Chief Chu coldly said, "You dare to interfere in the matters of my Hu Merchant Group!"
When Su Ming attacked, although Chief Chu was a little shocked, he did not scare him.
One had to know that this was the capital of Huainan, White Emperor City. Naturally, it was a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons!
But even if Su Ming displayed extraordinary skills, this Chief Chu did not fear him at all. After all, the Hu caravan that he relied on was not easy to bully.
He did not care about one or two of the martial arts world's Vigilante Masters!
However, Su Ming did not answer. He quietly picked up the ginseng that the thin man dropped on the ground and said faintly, "Using this artificially cooked ordinary ginseng as a hundred-year ginseng to sell. Your medicine store really knows how to do business!"
Hearing this, Chief Chu was shocked and said coldly, "What nonsense are you spouting!"
Su Ming smiled indifferently and said, "This ginseng of yours looks big and has dense roots. However, it does not have the medicinal fragrance of a hundred-year-old ginseng at all, as well as its deep striations. From the looks of it, it is obviously a specially cultivated ginseng. Furthermore, it's definitely less than half a year old!"
"Such a ginseng, you also have the nerve to sell it for a thousand silver taels!!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Many people who had bought ginseng in the Hu Pharmacy began to discuss among themselves.
"This person seems to be right. Last time, I bought ginseng from the Hu Pharmacy once. At that time, I felt that it was strange. Why didn't the ginseng they sold have any medicinal fragrance? At that time, I thought that it was the unique characteristic of this hundred-year-old ginseng, but I didn't think that it was actually a ginseng that was raised! "
"Sigh, this brother is right. The ginseng I bought at the Hu clan seems to be the same!"
"Could it be that we were all fooled!"
For a moment, everyone started to panic.
Chief Chu could naturally see the instability in the hearts of people at this moment. His expression changed. He coldly said, "Everyone, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, even if the ginseng in his hand isn't a hundred-year-old ginseng. The two of them are definitely in the same group. They deliberately want to smash my Hu family's signboard! "
"Everyone just heard what they said and made a fuss in their hearts. Everyone, don't worry. The drugs sold by our Hu family are absolutely fine. This person said that his daughter's condition worsened after taking the ginseng, but aren't you all still fine? So everyone, please don't be affected by this kid! "
