Jinlong Treasure Bank's external reserve warehouse.
Li Luo gazed at the opened warehouse, and in his heart, he also secretly let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Jin Long Bao Xing had a large scale and complete reserves; otherwise, without these emergency antidotes today, the poisoning incident on the Creek Sun side would have become even more troublesome.
Lü Qing'er glanced at Li Luo with a reassuring gaze, softly comforting him: "Don't worry, as long as we have these antidote materials, we should be able to resolve the trouble in Xi Yang House."
Li Luo nodded and thanked him again: "Thanks a lot this time."
Lü Qing'er smiled slightly and was about to speak when a loud shout suddenly rang out: "Halt!"
Lü Qing'er furrowed her delicate eyebrows, turned her head and saw a group of people rushing towards this side, led by a middle-aged man with a cold and solemn face, with an extraordinary aura.
"Father!" Ning Zhao was delighted to see this middle-aged man.
"That's Ning Qian, the vice president of Jindragon Treasure House." Lv Qing'er whispered to Li Luo, but in her heart, she felt a bit of trouble. After all, the other party was also a high-ranking official in Jindragon Treasure House, with extremely high seniority. She could deal with Ning Zhao, but it would be difficult for her to deal with his father.
And because of Ning Que's arrival, the old man in front of the warehouse also waved his hand to let the people behind him stop their actions.
"What are you doing?! The storage room is off-limits for no reason, how can you open it at will?!" Ning Qian hastily approached and sternly shouted.
Lü Qing'er raised the President's jade token in her hand and said, "I have the jade token, why can't I open it?"
Ning Qian glanced at the jade token in Lü Qing'er's hand, but unlike Ning Zhao, she didn't show any fear. Instead, she calmly asked: "Qing'er, if you take away the jade token, will it be known to the Emperor?"
Lü Qing'er hesitated for a moment.
Ning Qian was very experienced and naturally saw through Lü Qing'er's nervousness. He immediately said, "Privately taking the Huizhang Jade Symbol is against the rules of the Treasure Hunt. Qing'er, considering you're young and don't understand things, hurry up and return it. I'll take care of things here."
Lü Qing'er clenched her fists, this Ning Que father and son were really annoying, she was just taking out some medicinal materials that had no effect, but they insisted on blocking her way.
But Ke Ningqian's status in the Golden Dragon Treasure House was not low, and even if she were to rely on her ability to draw jade symbols, she would not be able to suppress him, so for a moment, Lü Qing'er also felt anxious.
After all, she knew that Li Luo urgently needed these antidotes, otherwise the consequences would be extremely severe.
Nan Ning Que then didn't bother with Lv Qing Er anymore, and instead looked at Li Luo with a dull gaze, his face expressionless, before saying: "Close the storage warehouse."
Those guards heard this and looked at each other in dismay, but eventually did as he said and began closing the reserve warehouse.
Ning Zhao saw this scene, his expression unchanged, but a hint of smile in his eyes. He and Li Luo didn't have any grudges, but Lü Qing'er stole the President's jade symbol for him, which made people feel jealous.
Just as the warehouse was about to close, there was a commotion from the rear, followed by a series of respectful voices: "Greetings, Chairman."
Lü Qing'er hastily looked over and indeed saw a woman in a red skirt, Yu Hongxi, approaching quickly with a group of people accompanying her.
"Hello." Ning Qian saw Yu Hongxi and also hurriedly cupped his hands.
Yu Hongxi nodded at him, her eyes scanning the scene before pausing on the storage room and Li Luo's body.
"What's going on?" she asked slowly and calmly.
Ning Qian hastily said: "President, it's probably Qing'er who took advantage of your inattention and secretly took the President's jade symbol, then wanted to open the reserve warehouse."
Lü Qing'er gritted her teeth in secret, this old Ning Ke was really wicked.
Li Luo, who was standing aside, let out a quiet sigh and spoke up at this time: "Fish will grow, this matter has nothing to do with Qing'er. I wanted to purchase a batch of antidotes at double the price, so I asked her for help. I didn't expect things to get so troublesome."
Looking at Lü Qing'er's expression, it was possible that she had secretly taken out the jade symbol. At this time, Li Luo naturally couldn't let her be blamed, so he stood up and took responsibility, no matter what Yu Hongxi wanted to do or say. As a man, he had to bear the consequences.
Lü Qing'er saw Li Luo suddenly speak up and was also startled, just about to say something.
However, Yu Hongxi waved her hand to stop her and glanced at Li Luo before saying calmly: "Vice President Ning, the Jade Symbol was not stolen by Qing'er from me, but rather I had previously hinted for her to take it. The Golden Dragon Treasure values integrity and making a profit, since someone is willing to pay a high price for it, we have no reason not to make this money."
Li Luo and Lü Qing'er were both stunned, their eyes wide with surprise as they stared at Yu Hongxi, clearly neither of them had expected that not only did she not scold her, but instead took the blame upon herself.
Ning Qian, the vice president, was also stunned. He didn't say a word, but Ning Zhao, who was standing beside him, looked surprised and couldn't help but open his mouth: "President, how can this be related to you..."
The words were left unspoken, but they were interrupted by his father. Ning Qian, the deputy director, chuckled and said, "So that's how it is."
"But it will be long, if you choose to sell these antidotes to Luolan Prefecture at this time, won't there be more twists and turns?"
His words have a deeper meaning.
This time, the Xiyang house suffered a disaster, obviously someone was pushing from behind. At this time, Yu Hongxi chose to sell these necessary antidotes to Li Luo, which would undoubtedly attract some attention.
Yu Hongxi heard this and smiled lightly, her smile seeming somewhat enchanting: "I, Jin Longbao, do things my own way, but I've never cared about these things."
"We only create wealth, not trouble, but if someone blocks us from creating wealth, then they are forcing us to create trouble."
"I think others will understand this too."
Hearing Yu Hongxi say this, Ning Ke also didn't say anything more and just nodded at the former before turning to leave with a somewhat reluctant Ning Zhao.
"Bring out those detoxification medicines that are stored." Yu Hongxi gave an order to the person in charge of the storage warehouse, her eyes gleaming with a hint of sharpness.
The manager heard this and hastily nodded in agreement.
Yu Hongxi walked towards Lü Qing'er, stretched out his hand, and the latter hastily handed over the jade token.
Yu Hongxi glared at her daughter, who was pretending to be well-behaved, and pinched her pale cheek, saying: "You really are bold, even daring to steal this thing."
"Is it being manipulated by someone?"
"No," Lü Qing'er hastily said, "I just took it out in case of an emergency."
She paused for a moment, giggled and hugged Yu Hongxi, coquettishly saying: "Mother, thank you."
Yu Hongxiang knew that she had stolen the jade symbol, but instead of scolding her, he helped block Ning Que's criticism and most importantly, didn't drive Li Luo away.
Her previous actions undoubtedly acquiesced in this help for Li Luo.
This makes De Lu Qing Er feel moved.
Yu Hongxiu let out a cold hum, then shifted her gaze to Li Luo beside her. The latter, seeing her gaze, hastily expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Yu Hui, for your help."
Yu Hongxi looked at his face, paused for a few seconds, and said lightly: "If you didn't take the initiative to help Qing'er just now, I would have driven you out by now."
Li Luo felt a bit embarrassed and said: "This matter was caused by me, no matter what, I won't let Qing'er help me take the blame."
"It's still somewhat responsible." Yu Hongxi's expression slightly relaxed. This kid, after all, is not unworthy of being Li Taixuan's son, and his character is still reliable.
She looked into the storage room and saw a guard constantly taking out some medicinal materials, which were exactly what Li Luo needed.
"Li Luo." Hong Xi suddenly spoke up.
Li Luo hastily agreed.
"Although these antidotes are not too expensive on ordinary days, they have extraordinary value in extraordinary times, and you should be very clear about this." She said quietly.
Li Luo nodded, not denying that without these antidotes, if Tang Yun and the others were poisoned to death at the Quyuan House headquarters, then the reputation of Quyuan House in the circle of Master Xiang would be ruined. This would be a devastating blow to Quyuan House.
The Queyang House was destroyed, and for Luolan Prefecture, it would also cause heavy losses.
So, the value of these detoxifying medicinal materials at this time is extremely high, and the so-called double price is truly not worth mentioning.
"The fish will grow" means... He looked at Fish Red Creek.
Lü Qing'er also hastily pulled on Yu Hongxiu's sleeve, wanting her not to make things too difficult for Li Luo.
Yu Hongxi didn't respond, and after a moment of contemplation, he said with a hint of profundity: "My style of doing business as Jin Longbao is to never make a losing deal. So I want you to remember that this time, you owe me a favor."
"This favor will have to be repaid someday."
Li Luo met Yu Hongxi's gaze, fell silent for a moment, then nodded seriously and said: "As long as it is within my power, I will do my best to make it happen. If there are any requirements, I will try my best to fulfill them."
Hong Yu Creek nodded in satisfaction.
"I hope you remember what you said today."
