Standing to the side, Jun Mohan also reached up to touch his nose after hearing Leng Ruoli’s words.
“Prince Qing, if you think this consort is swindling you out of your money, you can choose not to buy it. This consort is not forcing you.”
Leng Ruoli turned to face Prince Qing, spread her hands, and shrugged as she replied.
“I’ll buy it!” Prince Qing said, his face dark.
“Good, Prince Qing is indeed straightforward. However, this consort has never liked credit. So, please hand over the money and the goods, Prince Qing,” Leng Ruoli said, raising her eyebrows.
Prince Qing suppressed his anger upon hearing Leng Ruoli’s words.
“I left in too much of a hurry today. Second Imperial Sister-in-law, could you allow me to take the ointment back first, and then I’ll have someone send the money over?”
Prince Qing forced a smile and negotiated with Leng Ruoli.
“Nonono, Prince Qing, this consort fears you will renege on your promise after returning. We can only settle the transaction face-to-face,” Leng Ruoli said, wagging her index finger at him.
“Zuo Qing, go back immediately and get the accountant to withdraw one hundred thousand taels of gold and bring it to her,” Prince Qing instructed his personal guard through gritted teeth.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
Zuo Qing responded and hurried to leave the Cold King’s mansion.
“Guards, serve Prince Qing tea and refreshments.”
After sealing a major deal, Leng Ruoli’s mood improved greatly. Even her gaze towards Prince Qing became more pleasant.
Hahaha…
She never expected that a simple pain-relief and itch-relief ointment, casually taken from her space, could be sold for such a high price.
She, Leng Ruoli, was going to get rich!
One must know that the medicinal herbs and all the items in her supermarket, as well as her collection of modern weaponry in her space, could be replicated. Therefore, just like the ointment she sold to Prince Qing, she could have as much as she wanted.
Prince Qing glanced fiercely at the Cold King and his consort, his eyes almost spitting fire from anger.
He incessantly cursed Leng Ruoli in his heart: This slut actually swindled such a large sum of money from me today. Once my illness is cured, I will definitely get it back from her, Hmph! She’s really infuriating him!
Prince Qing sat opposite the Cold King and his consort, not saying a word, coldly watching them display their affection and feed each other, making him so angry that he couldn’t even feel the pain in his private parts.
After a long while, Zuo Qing finally had someone carry five boxes of gold bars inside.
“Your Highness!”
Zuo Qing entered and reported to Prince Qing.
“Second Imperial Sister-in-law, all one hundred thousand taels of gold are in here. Have your people count them carefully.”
Prince Qing looked at the five boxes of gold bars brought in by Zuo Qing, and his heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife.
“Hahaha…”
Leng Ruoli, seeing that one hundred thousand taels of gold filled five large boxes, felt her mood lift immensely.
“Valet Zuo Qing, quickly bring these five boxes of gold bars to this consort. Steward, please call the accountant to help me count this gold and see if it amounts to one hundred thousand taels!” Leng Ruoli said anxiously.
Everyone present: “……”
However, Leng Ruoli did not care what these people thought at this moment.
“Hahaha…”
“I’m going to be rich! I’m going to be rich!”
If she could sell a few more of these ointments to Prince Qing, wouldn’t she become rich in the future?
The thought made her happy.
But when Prince Qing heard her laughter, he was almost furious to death.
This little slut was treating him like a sheep to be fleeced.
Jun Mohan, on the other hand, shook his head helplessly. Others might not know, but he was fully aware of his consort’s bottom line. The wealth of gold and jewels in her space treasure vault was enough to make her incredibly rich. This one hundred thousand taels of gold was merely a drop in the bucket compared to the riches in her vault.
“Consort Leng, since I have already had the money brought to you, shouldn’t you hand over the ointment to me now?”
At this moment, Prince Qing suddenly reminded her.
“Prince Qing, don’t be in such a hurry. After the accountant counts this gold, this consort will naturally hand over the ointment to you,” Leng Ruoli replied calmly.
Hearing Leng Ruoli’s words, Prince Qing’s face turned black as the bottom of a pot. This slut was truly detestable!
Subsequently, Prince Qing had no choice but to wait until the accountant of the Cold King’s mansion counted the gold bars. Only then did Leng Ruoli hand over the pain-relief and itch-relief ointment to Prince Qing.
After taking the ointment from Leng Ruoli, Prince Qing glared at her again fiercely. Huffing, he turned around and was about to leave the Cold King’s mansion, but Leng Ruoli behind him called him to stop.
“That, Prince Qing, wait a moment. This consort hasn’t told you how to open the ointment yet. Don’t rush to leave.”
Leng Ruoli smiled with delight, a hint of playfulness in her smile.
Hearing this, Prince Qing lowered his gaze to the tube of ointment in his hand and suddenly found the ointment Leng Ruoli sold him very strange. It was neither in a small porcelain bottle nor a bamboo tube. He had never seen such a soft, smooth, white tube with writing on it before, which made him a little curious.
“Then please tell me, Consort Leng, how to open and use this ointment?” Prince Qing asked directly.
“Actually, opening the ointment is very simple. Hand the ointment over, and this consort will teach you how to open the cap.”
As soon as Leng Ruoli finished speaking, Jun Mohan snatched the ointment from Prince Qing’s hand, skillfully opened it for him, and taught him how to squeeze out the ointment and how much to use each time, just like instructions on a manual, explaining it to him clearly before tossing the ointment back to him.
These small ointments from his wife’s space were already all too familiar to him. When he accidentally cut himself while helping his wife with chores in the space, or when his hands were scalded by hot water, his wife would always use these small ointments to apply, which were excellent for reducing swelling and relieving pain.
Finally, Jun Mohan added to Prince Qing, “Do you understand? If you understand, then get lost!”
Jun Mohan spoke to Prince Qing with no politeness at all.
This immediately rendered Prince Qing speechless with anger.
Afterwards, Prince Qing glared at the Cold King and his consort with wide eyes, tugged at his wide sleeves, and angrily left the Cold King’s mansion.
“Li’er, don’t associate with such disgusting people in the future,” Jun Mohan said in a low voice.
“Okay, but I don’t understand why you’re willing to be sworn brothers with Prince Shou, yet you dislike being sworn brothers with Prince Qing, who is of the same mother as Prince Shou?” Leng Ruoli asked casually.
“It’s not that this King dislikes his brother, but his demeanor is too pretentious. Everything he does makes others dislike him,” Jun Mohan explained simply.
“Indeed, because I, Leng Ruoli, also detest him. However, he gave me a large sum of money today, which finally made me look upon him favorably. After all, he brought me money,”
Following that, Leng Ruoli burst into laughter.
“Hahaha…”
“One ointment can be sold for one hundred thousand taels of gold. I’m going to be rich!”
The servants in the room looked at their Wang Fei speechlessly, inwardly sighing: their Wang Fei was truly a money-grubber!
Did their Wang Fei not know that their Wang Ye was the wealthiest among all the princes?
