Chapter 443: Middlemen make a profit on the margin!_2
But in fact, even in her human form, she could easily smash the fontanel of any of them with a single punch.
Xia Ye knew she couldn’t overpower Jiang Xuan with brute force, so without a second word, she retracted her sharp little fangs, twisted her delicate brows, and let out a light and airy two words from her petal-like lips, "Hand hurts."
A soft ’complaint’ that could outweigh a thousand pounds made Jiang Xuan immediately loosen his grip, "Sorry, I hurt you."
"It’s nothing," Xia Ye smiled with her eyes narrowed, but inwardly she lavished him with a torrent of ’praise’ from the inside out.
It’s all content that can’t be broadcast...
After ordering the meal, Jiang Xuan let the waitstaff go for the time being.
Xia Ye noticed a friend request in her WeChat.
It was sent by Shen Zhiqiao.
The reason for the request was succinctly written in three characters: ’Have business.’
Xia Ye raised her hand and immediately approved it.
Jiang Xuan held his coffee cup, squinted his eyes slightly, and muttered with unclear meaning, "Shen Zhiqiao... is she that person’s sister?"
Xia Ye looked at him coolly and indifferently, "Next time you read minds, please get my permission first."
Heavenly Dao governs worldly affairs, and mind-reading is his unique ability.
All the people of the world are his subjects, and probing their thoughts is nothing out of the ordinary.
But for this little ancestor, it was a different story.
She desires privacy, and he can’t deny her that.
"Fine," Jiang Xuan conceded without much resistance, "Don’t get too close to the Shen Family, especially her brother."
Upon hearing this, Xia Ye looked at him again.
Several minutes had passed since Shen Zhiqiao sent her the request, and she was already getting impatient. Now that her request had finally been approved, she quickly got to the point.
Qiao: Female, 73 years old, high blood pressure, fatigue upon waking, low immunity, no other past medical history, you have medicine for this kind of condition, right?
Xia Ye regained her focus, as making money was important.
An array of medication bottles flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern, and after a moment, she tapped a character on the screen.
Heaven’s Blind: Yes.
Qiao: How much for one bottle?
After sending the message, Shen Zhiqiao glanced at Manager Liu, who had been waiting for quite some time, "She has it, let me ask about the price."
Manager Liu: "No problem, thanks for that."
After about ten seconds, Shen Zhiqiao received the reply, her eyes nearly popping out.
Heaven’s Blind: 731k.
Heaven’s Blind: But because you’re my senior, I’ll give you a wholesale price.
Wholesale price?
Shen Zhiqiao sighed, thinking to herself: At least she’s got some conscience.
But her relaxation lasted less than a second before she received Xia Ye’s third message.
Heaven’s Blind: 730k.
Just a thousand off for a senior?
Shen Zhiqiao, speechless and choking back words, couldn’t help but question her.
Qiao: How can I sell it if it’s this expensive?
Yet the reply from the other side came with sound reasoning.
Heaven’s Blind: You can sell it for more, as a middleman, make a profit~
At first glance, 730k indeed wasn’t cheap, but Xia Ye’s concoction contained the Snow Mountain Cordyceps gifted by her 498th-generation disciple.
So, the price wasn’t a penny more than it should be.
Shen Zhiqiao remained silent at her phone until Manager Liu inquired again, and she hesitantly spoke, "The price is a bit high... one bottle... 730k..."
Manager Liu was also momentarily stunned upon hearing the price, but he quickly did some mental calculations.
One bottle for 730k, then ten bottles would be 7.3 million.
If the collaboration with the Shen and Jiang Families goes well, that’s a small matter, isn’t it?
Manager Liu: "No problem, I’ll transfer the money now!"
Shen Zhiqiao gave him a look, "I hope, Manager Liu, you won’t mention my selling you medicine to others, especially this price..."
"Ah, no problem," as he saw Shen Zhiqiao speak with difficulty and seemingly have unspeakable concerns about the drug price, Manager Liu clearly had a misunderstanding.
He expressed his complete understanding, "Miss Shen, don’t be so formal with me. If not for you, I wouldn’t even be able to buy such good medicine. It’s only proper to pay more, why should Miss Shen work for nothing?"
Shen Zhiqiao managed to nod in response, but after nodding twice, she suddenly stopped.
She looked at Manager Liu and tugged fiercely at the corner of her mouth.
What does he mean?
Does Manager Liu really think she’s making a profit as a middleman?
Would she, the esteemed daughter of the Shen Family, care about such a small amount of money?
"Manager Liu misunderstood, I didn’t..."
Manager Liu hastily waved his hands, "Please don’t treat me like an outsider, Miss Shen. If you continue like this, I won’t dare to buy medicine from you again."
Before Shen Zhiqiao could finish explaining, a ’ding’ sound indicated that 730k had been transferred into the account.
She pressed her temple silently.
Forget it, what Manager Liu thinks about her doesn’t really matter to her at all.
Whatever.
Manager Liu chuckled, "What a coincidence, today’s instant transfer limit has been reached. I’ll transfer the money for the remaining nine bottles tomorrow."
