Chapter 306: Treating Ji Runze’s Mother’s Illness
Qin Wanwan first went to the manor to transport the flower garden over.
Orchids, roses, jasmine, chrysanthemums…
It was already nearing winter, and many flowers should have withered, but the flowers she raised were blooming vibrantly.
Each pot of flowers was different, yet they all had a rich floral scent, making one feel a bit better upon smelling them.
Pulling two carriages, Little Red proudly walked at the very front.
A small and beautiful white fox stood on its horse’s back.
Girls would find it cute and want to raise it, seeing a fluffy and soft ball of fur that made one want to hold it and pet it.
Arriving at the renovated flower garden, Ji Runze was already waiting.
With him was a woman he was supporting, her face and lips so pale they looked like they could faint at any moment.
“Miss Qin.”
The woman looked at Qin Wanwan with gratitude in her eyes.
Qin Wanwan walked over, but she took two steps back.
“Miss Qin, please don’t come closer, you might catch my sickness.”
She just wanted to see and thank her benefactor.
Qin Wanwan raised her small chin and proudly said, “I’m not afraid, I have a powerful Daddy.”
Yu Wuyou walked over, glanced at her, and said, “The medicine your mother took before was wrong, wasn’t it?”
Ji Runze’s heart stirred slightly. He glanced at Yu Wuyou, then lowered his eyes and explained his mother’s situation.
Yu Wuyou nodded, “Come here, I’ll take your pulse.”
Ji Runze’s mother hesitated a bit.
Qin Wanwan said, “Hurry and see the doctor! My Daddy is very powerful, treating your mother is also a benefit for employees.”
Ji Runze felt grateful and helped his mother to sit down on the side.
Later, Shang Wuyang also arrived, dressed in striking red clothes and wearing a mask. As soon as he entered, his gaze fell on Ji Runze, appraising him for a good while.
“Daddy Shang, why are you here?”
Qin Wanwan, who was watching Red Butterfly eat flower nectar, ran over upon seeing him.
Ji Runze looked at Yu Wuyou, then at Shang Wuyang.
This one is Daddy, and that one is also Daddy?
Isn’t Miss Qin the daughter of Chancellor Rong?
Although he was confused, Ji Runze didn’t ask.
“Come to see your flower shop.”
After those flowers were moved into the room, the entire room was filled with a rich floral scent.
The different floral scents mixed together, but it wasn’t unpleasant.
Inside the shop, there were three tall and large display shelves, with grids of varying sizes arranged on them.
The flowers were placed on the grids, and there were also a few simple flower stands by the doorway.
The entire flower shop didn’t look messy; instead, it had a unique charm.
“How are you planning to sell these flowers?”
He pointed to a beautiful orchid, its quality was good enough to be exhibited.
Qin Wanwan held up five plump little fingers, consciously making a grand request.
“One hundred taels.”
Shang Wuyang asked, “Gold?”
Qin Wanwan gave him a look as if to say, “How could it be so expensive? Of course, it’s silver.”
Shang Wuyang squatted down and pinched her little face.
“You’re so silly, and you’re my daughter, Shang Wuyang’s daughter. Selling them for a hundred taels is too cheap for someone.”
Qin Wanwan stared at him with her large dark eyes.
“A hundred taels! That’s already a lot of money.”
“Wrong, don’t sell this orchid for less than eight hundred taels.”
“Forget it, if I let you set the prices, you’ll go bankrupt. I’ll set the prices for these flowers.”
He beckoned, “Hey, boy, come here.”
Ji Runze knew he was being called. He glanced at his mother, and seeing she was undergoing acupuncture, he walked over.
“From now on, remember the price of every flower I mention.”
Ji Runze nodded.
“Go get paper and a brush.”
Ji Runze, though young, was quite confident.
“No need, you just need to say it once and I can remember it.”
Shang Wuyang raised an eyebrow. Since that was the case, he wouldn’t be polite.
“Every flower that Wanwan raises is a treasure, incomparable in this world. For this spring orchid with its attached rockery and bonsai, don’t sell it for less than eight hundred. This jasmine blooms richly and its flowers are much larger than ordinary jasmine, don’t sell it for less than five hundred. This one…”
Shang Wuyang described all the flowers. Qin Wanwan listened beside him, her little brows furrowed.
“Daddy, selling them for so much silver, will anyone buy them? Will none of Wanwan’s flowers sell?”
She was already worrying before the shop even opened.
Shang Wuyang lightly tapped her brow, “Don’t worry.”
“Your flowers are only suitable for the high-end market. Ordinary commoners won’t spend money on flowers, and those with a little money can’t afford them. We need to earn from those who have a lot of money and also love to pretend to be refined.”
Qin Wanwan didn’t understand, but Daddy Shang was so good at making money, so she would listen to him.
Shang Wuyang changed the topic and asked Ji Runze, “Did you remember everything?”
Ji Runze nodded.
Shang Wuyang said lazily, “Then say it all back.”
Ji Runze remained relatively calm and recited all the flowers one by one, according to the characteristics and prices Shang Wuyang had just mentioned.
Shang Wuyang nodded slightly. He wore a mask, so Ji Runze couldn’t tell if he was satisfied or not.
He only heard him say lazily, “Hmm, it was worth having Wanwan specifically ask that fellow to treat your mother’s illness. But remember, this is just the first step. Next, you need to learn how to sell all these flowers.”
He snapped his fingers, and a middle-aged man in a green robe immediately entered from outside.
“Master.”
“You will mentor him for a while.”
“Yes.”
After all, Qin Wanwan was a child. Even with Keke’s help, there were many things she didn’t think of.
Keke was not skilled in business either.
So Shang Wuyang had already considered the details for her.
Although this shop was opened by his daughter for Xie Chong, Shang Wuyang still didn’t want her to lose money.
“Daddy Shang, you’re so kind.”
Qin Wanwan snuggled into his embrace, acting spoiled in her soft and mellow voice.
Shang Wuyang asked, “Am I better than your other Daddies?”
Qin Wanwan immediately covered her ears and buried her head in his chest, refusing to answer.
“La la la, I didn’t hear anything!”
Shang Wuyang playfully pinched the little pigtails on her head.
On the other side, Yu Wuyou had also finished the acupuncture for Ji Runze’s mother.
Ji Runze’s mother’s complexion had indeed improved a little.
“This is the prescription I wrote. This one is for medicine to eat, and this one is for a medicinal bath to expel some residual toxins accumulated in her body. Go directly to Rongyuan Hall to get the medicine, the medicine there is free.”
Shang Wuyang looked at him displeasedly, “Are you really treating my pharmacy as your own?”
Rongyuan Hall was a pharmacy owned by Shang Wuyang. Because he himself was poisoned, he needed some rare medicinal herbs to suppress the toxins. Coupled with supporting so many people, there were also needs for medicine when they fell ill or got injured. For convenience, he simply opened his own pharmacy and collected all sorts of medicinal herbs.
Yu Wuyou said, “Just tell me if you’ll give it or not.”
Shang Wuyang looked down at Qin Wanwan.
The little one blinked her big eyes and looked up at him.
Shang Wuyang said irritably, “Fine!”
Ji Runze’s mother, with red eyes, was about to kneel down to them.
Ji Runze did the same.
A man of honor kneels only for gold, but for these life-saving benefactors, he was willing to kneel.
