The boss ‘eyes lit up when he saw Lu Miao enter.

He didn’t get her contact information the last time, and now he finally saw her again.

He didn’t bother to say anything more to the uncle and quickly walked forward.” Miss, do you have any requests this time?”

Lu Miao walked straight toward the uncle.

“Uncle, can I see the thing in your hand?”

The uncle looked at her suspiciously and quickly hugged the thing in his hand tightly.

” What do you want to do?” , he asked warily.

Seeing this, the boss quickly went forward.” Miss, it’s just two rhinoceros horns. Although this thing has a high medicinal value, it really can’t be sold privately. If you need herbs in this area, I can help you find legal channels.”

Lu Miao shook her head.” It is indeed illegal to buy and sell rhino horns privately. However, that is to prevent the hunting of wild animals to harvest fresh rhino horns. If it was buying and selling antiques made from rhinoceros horn, it would be another matter. It was reasonable and legal. The two rhinoceros horns in Uncle’s hands were at least two to three hundred years old. They should be from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.There was also a circle of runes at the bottom of the horn.”

As Lu Miao spoke, she pointed at the bottom of the horn.

The boss quickly went over to take a closer look. He saw that under the gray horn, there was indeed a circle of incomprehensible patterns.

Probably because it had been too long, the patterns were already a little blurry.

If Lu Miao had not pointed it out, he would not have seen it.

“So, these two rhinoceros horns were preserved and passed down as antiques. The value of an antique was far greater than its medicinal value.”

The uncle hesitated for a moment before asking,” Miss, do I have to sell it at the antique market?”

Lu Miao said directly, “Based on the current market price, the rhino horn in your hand should not exceed 3000 yuan per gram at most. These two rhinoceros horns added up to about five kilograms, which was 7-5 million. If it was auctioned off as an antique, it would cost at most eight million. After deducting the auction house’s commission and taxes, he should have around seven million. I’m very interested in these two antiques in your hands. If uncle is willing, I can buy them for eight million.”

The middle-aged man was stunned by the price.

He was just in a hurry to use the money. He had accidentally seen on TV that this thing could be used as a medicinal herb and was very valuable. Coincidentally, he had a pair of them that had been passed down from his ancestors and hung on the wall all day long. He thought that it would be good if he could exchange them for tens of thousands of yuan. He did not expect Lu Miao to give him such a high price.

Seeing that the uncle did not say anything, Lu Miao did not force him.” It’s alright. If you don’t trust me, you can take it to the auction house. I’ll just go to the auction house to bid for it.”

“No, no. I just didn’t expect you to offer me such a high price,” the uncle said hurriedly.

He did not know anything at all. If Lu Miao had even the slightest intention, she could have swindled the rhinoceros horns away with tens of thousands of yuan, let alone hundreds of thousands.

He immediately stuffed the item into Lu Miao’s hands.” Here.”

Lu Miao reached out and took it. Her fingertips touched the runes under the ox horn. A layer of faint white light floated up from under the runes and disappeared in a flash.

This thing was called Dragon Horn. It was a type of magic tool, and the older it was, the better its effects would be.

It was also one of the magic tools that she had asked Lin Bufan to find.

After searching for so long, there was no news. She did not expect that she would actually run into one today.

She asked for the uncle’s bank account number, took out her phone, and transferred the money to him on the spot.

It wasn’t until the middle-aged man left and Lu Miao handed over the list of herbs that the pharmacy owner regained his senses.

The last time he saw Lu Miao, he had guessed that she was not an ordinary person. However, he did not expect her to have eight million.

Thinking back to the last time he offered a hundred thousand yuan deposit for the prescription, he could not help but feel ashamed. No wonder the little girl was not tempted at all.

He quickly went behind the counter. As he looked for herbs for her, he quickly took out her phone to inform Gu Shiyan that the girl who took the prescription the last time had appeared again.

Elder Sun entrusted this matter to Gu Shiyan. A few days ago, Gu Shiyan had specially brought someone over and even left his contact information. “Boss, can you order some pharmaceutical equipment?”

The boss nodded.” Of course. If you need anything, you can tell me.”

Lu Miao said the names of a few devices.

Other than boiling Chinese medicine, there were also some pills and patches that required professional equipment.

This set of equipment and the herbs she wanted cost more than two million yuan.

Lu Miao clicked on the transfer button. When she received that her account limit was not enough to pay, she checked her bank balance in disbelief.

She realized that she was still short of 800 yuan!

She was a top-notch heavenly master, but she was so poor that she didn’t have the money to pay and even owed someone money! !!

As the richest master in the Metaphysical world who had countless assets in her previous life and had never cared about money, Lu Miao had already begun to doubt life.

She rubbed her forehead and said in embarrassment,” Boss, I’m still short of 800 yuan. I’ll add you on WeChat and I’ll give it to you when I get back. Is that okay?”

When the boss heard this, he excitedly took out his phone and added her on WeChat.” Forget about the money. Just treat it as me making friends with the lady.”

He was worried about how to contact Lu Miao.

Now, even if she left, she could report to Mr Gu and Elder Sun.

Moreover, this young lady had a bright future ahead of her. It was worth it to exchange 800 yuan for her favor.

The equipment would only arrive in a few days. Lu Miao took the herbs out of the shop and looked at her phone balance with a melancholic expression. It was zero.

She didn’t even have the fare to go home.

Just as she was hesitating whether she should ask Gu Jinxi to transfer some for her, she turned her head and saw a few old men setting up a stall to read people’s fortunes under the bridge not far away.

She turned around and squatted beside them.

She typed a few words on the screen, “Limited to three readings”, and placed it in front of her.

The old man closest to her saw this and shook his head.” In this day and age, any Tom Dick and Harry dares to come out and read someone’s fortune.”

The other person stroked his beard and chuckled.” Little girl, do you know the Book of Changes? Do you know what the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches are, the Five Elements, the Four Pillars, and the Sixty-Four Trigrams are? It’s not right for you to read people’s fortune if you do not know anything.”

“That’s right. It’s fine if you young people just post on TikTok to sell goods to cheat young people. Not everyone can do fortune-telling.”

Lu Miao didn’t waste any more time. She turned to look at him and said, ” Your son just got married a week ago. He’s been arguing with you about splitting the assets these past two days. When you left the house this morning, you lost a hundred yuan. Within three days, you will definitely suffer a bloody calamity.”

“And you. Yesterday, your car was scratched by someone on the road…”

With every word she said, the expressions on the two old men’s faces changed..
