Chapter 144 Reveal
Shang Ruoyi sneered: "Let's not talk about the authenticity of your identity. Even if it is true, what does it have to do with me? I am just the owner of a milk tea shop. There is no intersection between me and you. Let alone Mr. Lingjun, even if you are the emperor's princess, it has nothing to do with me."
Hearing her say this, the woman in white's face darkened.
"Besides, everyone, look at the traces of the milk tea spilled on the ground. The water droplets are splashing outwards from the table, which means it was splashed from the direction of your maid. Not only did she deny it, she slandered my sister. The master is not much better than her to raise such a servant." Shang Ruoyi walked up to her with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. "I am not talented. I have had the honor of meeting Master Lingjun a few times. She wears a mask all day long. I have never seen the master dressed like this."
The woman in white looked flustered for a moment, but quickly calmed down.
I thought to myself, he is just a shop owner, how could he have ever met a man like Master Lingjun?
"Really? Why don't I have any impression of that?" She stroked the veil on her face and said, "I did wear a mask before, but today I dressed like this because I didn't want people to recognize me."
The onlookers originally had doubts about her identity because of Shang Ruoyi's words, but after hearing her say this, they felt that it made some sense.
"Really?" Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "I heard that Master Lingjun can cure the plague. I wonder what method he used?"
Xiao Tao snorted coldly when she heard this: "How can you know what method our Master used?" She rolled her eyes at Shang Ruoyi and said: "I thought a lowly merchant like you could have some pride. You are just trying to get our Master's secret recipe."
"Don't be ungrateful. Our Master doesn't want to argue with you. This is your good fortune." Xiao Tao walked forward and pointed at the burn ointment: "This is our Master's secret recipe. Just this jar costs ten gold coins."
Ten gold!
People couldn't help but gasp when they heard this.
Why is burn ointment so expensive?
People looked at Shang Ruoyi with strange eyes, and whispered, "Master Lingjun is really generous. He gave away such an expensive ointment. But Shopkeeper Shang is still holding on to her. It's really a bit too much."
However, some people hold different views.
"Shopkeeper Shang doesn't seem like that kind of person!"
"Yes! Shopkeeper Shang is polite to everyone, except for those two times when he came to cause trouble, he was aggressive and harsh like today."
Shang Ruoyi sneered: "In my opinion, Master Lingjun is no different from an ordinary doctor. What miracle doctor? It's just a rumor."
"You!" Xiao Tao was about to step forward when she was stopped by the woman in white: "Boss, I don't mind what you say to me, but if you question my medical skills, then I can't stand it any longer."
"Am I wrong?" Shang Ruoyi opened the burn treatment jar handed to her and pointed at the ointment inside: "This is just the most common burn ointment in the pharmacy. You exchanged it for another jar and scooped out a small spoonful and said it was your secret recipe? And you sold it for ten gold coins. Should I say you are black-hearted or greedy?"
what?
Is this just ordinary burn cream?
Shang Ruoyi took the ointment in her hand and said, "If you don't believe me, you can go to the clinic in front and buy a large jar for ten coins to compare it. Then you will know whether what I said is true or not."
The woman in white frowned when she heard this. She didn't expect that her trick would be exposed by her.
Unexpectedly, someone actually spent ten cents to buy a large jar of burn ointment, which was ten times more than the one the woman had.
If they are exactly the same, then wouldn't it be that all the money that Master Lingjun earned was earned by dishonest means?
People compared the two ointments and were shocked to find that they were exactly the same in color, smell and texture.
They looked at the woman in white with strange eyes, even contempt.
It's obviously just an ordinary ointment. According to the dosage in this jar, it is worth at most one penny. How can it be sold for ten gold coins?
Ten gold is one hundred taels!
How many times has this increased?
The woman in white felt like a thorn in her back as she felt their eyes were looking at her.
But she quickly calmed down: "It's just burn medicine, most of them are similar, but my ointment will definitely be more effective."
"Really? Why do I remember that the burn ointment you gave me wasn't like this?" She took out a small porcelain jar from her sleeve, and after opening it, a faint fragrance wafted out.
She pulled He Yunyi's hand over, and seeing that the heat had been suppressed by the ice water, she applied the ointment on the back of her hand.
After just a few breaths, the red mark on the back of his hand disappeared.
hiss!
This ointment is so effective!
The woman in white didn't expect that she would hit a wall today.
Shang Ruoyi closed the jar and glanced at her: "If you want to cheat, you'd better change your identity. Doctors are no different from others. Any mistake can cost lives."
As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, the onlookers looked at the woman in white with anger in their eyes.
So this is a scam?
Her maid asked how much silver the pills for curing the plague cost?
It costs a lot of money!
Why not grab it?
Is there anyone here who can afford a fortune?
Now think about it, isn’t he just a liar?
The man who told her any amount of money would do couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He could afford the silver, but if he used that much silver to buy a fake medicine, he would probably be angry to death before he got the plague.
The woman in white fled from the shop and got on a carriage and left.
"Shopkeeper Shang, today is all thanks to you!"
"Yes! If it weren't for you, we would have been cheated of our money by that woman."
Shang Ruoyi just smiled and said nothing. She had long expected someone to impersonate someone else, but she didn't expect to catch it today.
They had really bad luck as they had managed to defraud the real owner.
The woman in white in the carriage took off her veil, her face looking gloomy.
"Miss." Xiao Tao whispered, "Let's..."
The woman in white glanced at her and said, "It's not all your fault." Originally, they wanted to create some accidents to let people know her identity as Master Lingjun, but they didn't expect that this woman had actually met Master Lingjun.
"Didn't the master say that Young Master Lingjun never showed up?" She said in a deep voice, "And where did the shopkeeper see her?"
Xiao Tao shook her head: "I don't know, maybe he just said it casually to scare people!"
The woman in white looked serious and said, "She doesn't look like she's lying. Let's report to the master first and we'll make a long-term plan."
"Miss, if we don't use this identity, how can we enter the palace smoothly?"
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped. Before Xiao Tao could ask, she heard a man's voice outside the carriage: "Miss Xu, I am willing to help you."
