Chapter 40 Swindler

Xiao Zhiran looked at the item and immediately rolled his eyes. The methods of scammers these days were getting more and more stupid. This item was so fake that it was almost rotten to the core, and there were still people who did not want to give up and use it to deceive others!

“Is this what you want to sell?” Xiao Zhiran laughed. “It’s just a Chinese knotweed. Do you have to be so sneaky?”

“This is no ordinary Chinese knotweed! Look, it’s in human form, it’s very rare!” The middle-aged man was anxious.

“Human form? Do you know that if this thing is put on a human-shaped mold when it grows, it can be collected in hundreds of catties the next year?” Xiao Zhiran frowned.

“No, I didn’t plant it. I dug it up myself. It’s wild and very valuable.” The middle-aged man stomped his feet anxiously and spoke incoherently. While the middle-aged man was talking to Xiao Zhiran, no one noticed that Qin Yi’s eyes lit up when she saw the Chinese knotweed. It seemed like the black jade spirit did not lie to her. The good luck that she had received from her blessings was really useful!

“No, I said I don’t want it, so I don’t want it. Hurry up and leave.” Xiao Zhiran was a little annoyed by the middle-aged man’s nagging and began to chase him away.

“Boss, my herbs are real. Please take a look at them again, take a look…” The middle-aged man clung to the counter and refused to leave.

Xiao Zhiran’s face turned cold.”If your child is really sick, bring him here and I’ll treat him for free. If you’re here to sell fake medicinal herbs to cheat people, then leave immediately. If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police!”

“No, boss, my child is really sick, but the herbs are real. I’m not lying to you.” The middle-aged man was so anxious that his eyes turned red. At this moment, a cold voice came from behind him, “How much are you planning to sell this herb for?”

The middle-aged man turned around and saw a very good-looking young man looking at him. He was also the one who had asked the question. Qin Yi squinted at the middle-aged man, a faint smile on her lips. In her past life, she had always tempered her body by herself, so she had also dabbled in medicinal herbs. Although the thing that the middle-aged man took out looked like a Chinese knotweed, it was not a Chinese knotweed, but a rare medicinal herb! It was a medicinal herb that could help her internal energy advance! That was why she said that the black jade elf did not lie to her. This was indeed a great fortune. It seemed that she would have to accumulate more favorable impression points in the future.

Seeing that Qin Yi really wanted to buy his herbs, the middle-aged man was extremely excited. He had already gone to several pharmacies, but no one accepted them. Many people did not even look at them. Qin Yi was the first to ask him for the price. The middle-aged man rubbed his hands in excitement. “You … What do you think about a thousand? If it’s expensive, 800 Yuan. Is 800 Yuan enough?” He looked at Qin Yi nervously, afraid that the price he offered would not satisfy him. Chinese knotweed was not worth much, but this was a human-shaped Chinese knotweed. It was wild and strong. Eight hundred should not be too expensive.

“Qin Yi, are you crazy? What do you want that for? If you really want it, you can wait for me for two days. I can collect a bunch of them for 50 yuan!” Xiao Zhiran was afraid that Qin Yi would be deceived. Although Qin Yi’s appearance had become better, his intelligence was really worrying!

“Uncle, it’s not easy for this man.” Qin Yi smiled and did not take it to heart.

“You… You child, you don’t understand if you haven’t met one. Nowadays, scammers can act pitiful. They make themselves look pitiful just to trick you into paying!” Xiao Zhiran’s expression was helpless. A child was a child. He did not understand the evil in people’s hearts. He believed a story that someone made up.

“I didn’t lie, I really didn’t lie!” The middle-aged man explained anxiously.

“How about this? Bring your child to my uncle. If you’re telling the truth, I’ll buy your medicinal herbs.” Qin Yi smiled. She knew very well whether the herbs were real or not. The reason she asked the middle-aged man to bring the child over was to help him. After all, there were free doctors here.

The middle-aged man quickly nodded. “Okay, okay, okay. I’ll bring the child over now.” With that, he ran out.

“Qin Yi, you believe the words of such a liar?” Eight hundred Yuan was not a small amount. Su Yanbao’s monthly living expenses are only two hundred Yuan.

“Uncle, being kind to others is being kind to yourself. I saw that the man was quite sincere and didn’t seem to be lying. If he really lied, he wouldn’t have brought the child here and we won’t lose anything. If what he said is true, we’ll treat it as a good deed. The child is innocent, so we’ll try to save him if we can.” Qin Yi said with a smile.
