The old man was the owner of this old shop, "Gu's Pharmacy", Mr. Gu. He sighed and said, "Guotao, you also know that wild ginseng is scarce these days. My store only has a few roots from over a decade ago, I'm afraid they won't meet your expectations."

  Qiguo Ta sighed in disappointment, his father's body was getting worse and worse, he wanted to find some good wild ginseng for him, best if it was the hundred-year-old kind, but after searching countless times, he couldn't find any.

  "Master! Master! Come out quickly!"

  Suddenly, a loud cry came from outside, and Gu Lao's eyebrows furrowed slightly. His disciple was young, but he had always been steady and calm, so what could have happened to make him lose control like this?

  "My apprentice!"

  The old man shook his head and stood up from the chair, "You sit first, I'll go take a look."

  Qiguo nodded and Old Gu opened the door and walked out.

  "Master, come quickly!"

  The boy quickly pulled the old man from the counter and walked in the direction of the counter.

  "Xiao Bai, what's wrong with you, rushing about like this? Didn't I tell you to be steady?"

  The old man said with a mixture of kindness and helplessness that Xiao Bai was the child he had picked up, who had been following him to learn medicine all along.

  "Master, don't call me Little White anymore, okay?"

  Gu Bai glanced at Qin Tianyue, his face slightly red. Before, he didn't think it was a big deal when Master called him Xiao Bai, but now that he saw Qin Tianyue, he didn't want Master to call him that anymore, feeling embarrassed!

  Gu Lao gazed at Gu Bai in surprise, following his line of sight to Qin Tianyue, and a look of admiration flashed across the bottom of her eyes. What a beautiful young girl, elegant and refined, with an outstanding temperament, as if wherever she stood, people's gazes would always fall on her.

  Qin Tianyue nodded towards Old Man Gu, which was a way of greeting him.

  "What's going on? Shouldn't Master come out? Don't know if Master is entertaining guests?"

  The old master asked his apprentice in a low voice, "Could it be that there is a beautiful young girl coming, so let him come out and take a look?"

  "Dad! Come quick and take a look!"

  The little girl in front of the counter was the daughter that Guo Lao had when he was middle-aged, so he had always been doting on her, making the little girl a bit spoiled.

  Mr. Gu's gaze fell on the wooden box in front of the counter, and he walked up with a slight surprise. When his eyes touched the things inside the box, Mr. Gu, who was usually calm and composed, also changed his face, with excitement and incredulity filling his eyes, "This... this is actually a wild ginseng that's at least 300 years old!"

  The key is not the three-hundred-year-old wild ginseng, but rather that this particular wild ginseng has already completely taken on a human form, with plump roots and no damage whatsoever. Moreover, this wild ginseng is still fresh, full of spiritual energy, making one feel invigorated just by smelling it.

  He has lived for so long and had seen a wild ginseng that was over a hundred years old many years ago, but that one was nothing compared to this one. He thought he would never see such a perfect wild ginseng in his lifetime, but now he actually saw it.

  "Good, great! Xiao Bai, who brought this? Are you intentionally trying to sell?"

  Gu's old face was somewhat excited, no matter what, he must buy this ginseng.

  "Respectfully addressing an elderly person, this is..."

  Qiguo Tao heard Old Gu's exclamation from inside and couldn't help but walk out. When he saw the hundred-year-old wild ginseng in front of the counter, he couldn't help but want to touch it, but was slapped by Old Gu, "Don't touch, be careful not to break it!"

  Qiguo Tao was so angry and amused that he had no choice but to stop, "Gu Lao, I'll take this ginseng, you just name the price!"

  "Old Gu glared at Qi Guo Tao, 'I haven't found a buyer yet, what do you want?'"

  Gu Lao gritted his teeth, he had originally wanted to keep this wild ginseng for himself, but Qi Guo Tao's father and he were the best of friends, so he couldn't possibly take it for himself!

  What a pity! Such good wild ginseng was actually seen by that kid, Qi Guo Tao!

  Qiguo Tao looked around, searching for the owner of the ginseng.

  His gaze finally fell on Qin Tianyue, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, just like Old Man Gu. He couldn't believe that this was something Qin Tianyue possessed, after all, she was dressed in ordinary clothes, and her attire even looked a bit old, not at all like someone who could own such a top-grade ginseng.

  "Xiao Bai, whose ginseng is this?"

  Gu Lao couldn't help but ask Gu Bai, and in his heart he was expecting to have such a top-grade ginseng. He thought that maybe there would be another good ginseng, and even if not, he still wanted it.

  "Dad, she brought it!"

  Without waiting for Gu Bai to respond, Gu Lao's daughter, Gu Xiao Xiao, pointed at Qin Tian Yue. Gu Lao's gaze fell on Qin Tian Yue, and there wasn't a hint of surprise in his eyes, as if this wild ginseng was destined to belong to someone like Qin Tian Yue.

  At first glance, he knew Qin Tianyue was no ordinary person. Her breath was light and her temperament was good. Even wearing ordinary tattered clothes standing there, she could make people unable to ignore her and not dare to be presumptuous!

  "How dare you! Don't be rude!"

  Gu Lao glanced at Gu Xiao Xiao, and Gu Xiao Xiao didn't dare to be presumptuous again. Her father loved her, but he also wouldn't allow her to act recklessly.

  Gu Lao asked Gu Bai to hurry up and make a cup of his own collection of good tea, inviting Qin Tianyue to walk towards the inner room.

  The inner room of Gu Lao's pharmacy is very elegant and refined, with a hint of sandalwood fragrance.

  Qin Tianyue didn't stand on ceremony, sitting down across from Gu Lao and Qi Guotao. Gu Bai poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Qin Tianyue, her face flushing slightly as she stood behind Qin Tianyue, secretly sizing her up.

  Gu Lao silently shook his head and didn't let Gu Bai leave.

  Gu Lao smiled at Qin Tianyue with a hint of amusement, while Qi Guotao observed her from the side, nodding to himself in approval. For so long, he had never seen a girl who was neither arrogant nor humble, and yet remained unchanged in front of him and Gu Lao.

  It's clear that he and Gu Lao are not ordinary people, the two of them have an aura that can make many girls speechless when facing them, but this girl in front of him remains calm and composed, even taking a sip of the tea in front of her.

  "Little girl, how's this tea?"

  Qin Tianyue seems to understand tea very well too, and Gu Lao happily asked him questions.

  Qin Tianyue put down the Qinghua porcelain teacup in his hand, revealing a faint smile. "It's said that the Qing Shan Buddhist Temple has an old tea tree that only yields one catty of clear tea every year. This is not something that everyone can drink. The entrance has a hint of bitterness, but the aftertaste is very sweet. Of course, it's a top-grade good tea."

  Gu Lao and Qi Guo were shocked as they stared at Qin Tianyue, who was actually still able to discern the origin of the wine.

  "Wow, I didn't expect you to be so impressive, even able to appreciate the tea from Qing Shan Buddhist Temple!"

  Old Gu clapped his hands in excitement, and behind Qin Tianyue, Gu Bai revealed a happy smile.

  I thought she might taste tea, but absolutely had no idea where it was produced, and didn't expect her to actually know!

  "The little girl is really impressive, I don't know what to call her?"

  Qiguo Tao smiled and asked.

  "My name is Qin Tianyue, you can call me Tianyue!"

  Qin Tianyue's gentle tone, wanting to say that she was good at tasting tea, actually owed a lot to that woman. When she first brought her back, she did many things in order to blend into high society, including pleasing her fiancé's grandfather. She had accidentally tasted the clear tea from Qing Shan Buddhist Temple once before, so she still remembered this flavor.

  Gu Lao nodded in satisfaction, "Alright then, I won't be polite either. Tianyue, how much do you plan to sell this ginseng for?"

  He learned from Gu Bai's mouth that Qin Tianyue indeed intended to sell this ginseng to them.

  Qin Tianyue picked up the teacup in front of her, elegantly sipping tea, and her beautiful eyes fell on Old Man Gu, "Actually, I'm not very clear about the price of ginseng either, I don't know how much you can offer?"

  Qin Tianyue didn't tell the truth with this sentence, although she wasn't particularly aware of the price of ginseng, she also knew that her ginseng was roughly worth a certain amount. After all, this ginseng of hers could be considered priceless and invaluable.

  She said this to both Gu and Lao, also wanting to probe whether there would be any future opportunities for cooperation.
