Xu Qing coughed lightly. From Qiao Yanhui’s gaze, she could clearly sense menace. Was he thinking of the time she stripped him naked and threw him into the trash? She hurriedly said, “What I need is the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, the thousand-year-old lingzhi immortal grass, and the Golden Cicada, the leader of all poisons. In addition, I need a gold and silver hundred-year-old dragon robe. By the way, I already have the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus and some other supplementary herbs. I’m only short of the remaining four.”

Ying Zhiyao planted that Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. There was definitely no need for Xu Qing to look for it.

However, Xu Qing’s words made Qiao Yanhui’s gaze darken. These were all legendary herbs! Who had seen them before?

Xu Qing didn’t mind. These things were very easy to find in her original world. Lingzhi immortal grass definitely grew here. The Golden Cicada was poisonous and due to its survival habits, they were a little difficult to find, but there were also some in this world. As for the hundred-year-old dragon cloth, one gold and one silver, they were actually the skin of a hundred-year-old golden and silver snake. It was probably hidden at the bottom of the sea, and it was the hardest to find. However, she felt that Qiao Yanhui had a way.

“I’ll draw the exact appearance of these things and tell you how to catch them and find them. I’ll also tell you their habits,” Xu Qing said.

Qiao Yanhui raised his eyebrows. From Xu Qing’s confident look, she seemed to have seen these legendary things many times already. However, he didn’t ask further. He was willing to dig out her secrets bit by bit.

Xu Qing brought her family to the center of the village. Today, the entire village was discussing the matter of planting herbs.

When she arrived at the open space, almost everyone in the village was already there. Only a few families were still taking their time. Xu Qing thought that such people definitely wouldn’t be able to escape in time when disaster struck.

The village chief stood on the high platform and looked at the lazy villagers with disappointment in his eyes. The people in the village were becoming lazier and lazier. It was unknown if it was because of their poverty or because they were numb to the mockery of the people from the other villages, but even after they came, they didn’t stop complaining.

The village chief coughed lightly to quieten everyone down before saying, “I have good news for everyone today. Our village is about to welcome a big business deal. As long as we handle it well, we can earn a lot of money, so I specifically came to discuss it with everyone today.”

The village chief’s words instantly caused an uproar in the crowd!

......

“Village Chief, what business is it?”

“That’s right. How much money can we earn?”

“Tell us quickly. We can’t wait!”

The village chief raised his hand again to signal for everyone to be quiet before continuing, “On account of our village’s Xu Qing, Mr. Bei Shu has decided to choose our village as the place to plant herbs. He will buy the herbs planted at 10% higher than the market price. As for how to plant them and what to do with the medicinal seedlings, Mr. Bei Shu will help us. He will send herb farmers to teach us. The money for the medicinal seedlings will be deducted from our profits after we successfully plant them. Of course, Mr. Bei Shu also said that if anyone feels uneasy, they can use half of the field to plant herbs and the other half to continue planting food. After the harvest, everyone can consider whether or not to continue planting.”

No matter how detailed the village chief’s explanation was, there were still people who felt uneasy.

“What if Mr. Bei Shu doesn’t pay us?” Someone said worriedly.

“Don’t worry about that. Mr. Bei Shu will sign a contract. If Mr. Bei Shu doesn’t pay you guys, you can sue him,” the village chief replied.

This guarantee made all the villagers feel at ease. After all, this was a guaranteed profit.

Someone finally stood up. It was Hunter Cao. His family sincerely thanked Xu Qing and believed in the people Xu Qing had befriended. “Our family’s entire field will be planted with herbs.” Actually, the Cao family didn’t have much land. After all, their family mainly hunted for a living, but they had good intentions.

“How much land can your family have? You make it sound like your family is very ric.” Someone in the crowd snorted in disdain. It was Old Madam Qian, who had a good relationship with the Xu family.

“My family’s field will also plant herbs.” Li Bixia immediately shouted at the top of her lungs. They felt guilty about what happened to Babe Sunshine last time. After all, those people were hired by their family, but they actually poisoned them. Although they were forced, they could have spoken the truth so that everyone could solve it together… Mr. Bei Shu didn’t blame them for this matter and only said there was no bonus. This punishment was very light. Li Bixia knew that Xu Qing must have mediated, so she treated Xu Qing and her family even better.

Old Madam Qian mocked again, “Wow! Your family is really rich. Why do you care about the money you’ll earn from planting herbs?”
