I said I’d help you sell them, and I sold them, didn’t I?
The moment Luo Chen said this, Jiang Yifei instinctively felt something was off.
Liu Yunwei’s smile also instantly froze on his face.
Shen Yuelan’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Sold them?” Jiang Yifei’s smile vanished.
“Clap clap clap!” Luo Chen applauded with a round of applause.
“Many thanks for Young Master Jiang’s cooperation! Thanks, I’ll treat you to a meal sometime.”
“How domineering, throwing out a million just like that!” Luo Chen mocked with a smile.
“What do you mean?”
“Make yourself clear!” Jiang Yifei suddenly felt there was definitely something fishy about this.
“This big brother just made a bet with me, saying he could help me sell all these medicinal herbs.” Ren Siyu was young and fearless, quite bold. Even after receiving a million, she hadn’t seemed particularly surprised.
So at this moment, she simply spoke up directly.
“What exactly is going on?” Jiang Yifei’s expression had already darkened to the extreme.
“It’s exactly what you see.” Luo Chen said with a smile, spreading his hands.
“You never intended to buy these medicinal herbs at all?” Liu Yunwei wasn’t stupid either. At this moment, he reacted, his face darkening as he spoke.
“I never said I was going to buy them.” Luo Chen smiled.
Jiang Tongran beside him also laughed rather unkindly.
Even Shen Yuelan felt a bit like laughing.
“Then why were you asking about the price just now, and driving up the bid?”
“Are you stupid? Can’t I even ask?” Luo Chen looked at Jiang Yifei and Liu Yunwei as if they were idiots.
“You’re right. Compared to fighting you, I am indeed still a bit green.” Luo Chen retorted sarcastically.
Jiang Yifei and Liu Yunwei weren’t fools either. By now, they had completely realised this was a trap Luo Chen had set for them.
He had deliberately calculated that they would target him, then deliberately mentioned those few herbs in front of them to lure them in. Deliberately asking about the price too, just to make them misunderstand.
Then making a move to buy the herbs, even driving up the price was deliberate.
It was a very simple little trick, but the two of them had fallen for it.
At this moment, the two of them no longer had that previous air of calm confidence and mastery of the situation. Their high and mighty expressions instantly changed.
They became furious with embarrassment.
Indeed, a million was nothing to Jiang Yifei.
But what was most infuriating wasn’t this million. It was that Luo Chen’s goal was simply to help someone sell all the herbs.
And then he had stupidly walked right into this trap to buy the herbs, and at the high price of a million at that!
He had originally thought he was humiliating Luo Chen, suppressing Luo Chen, making Luo Chen lose face.
But in the blink of an eye, they were the ones being humiliated, their intelligence crushed by Luo Chen.
One could imagine, when Luo Chen saw Jiang Yifei constantly driving up the price, seeing Jiang Yifei’s arrogant posture, he didn’t know if he was already laughing himself silly inside.
After all, the more Jiang Yifei drove up the price, the more of an idiot he made himself out to be.
Liu Yunwei was beside himself with fury, because he had thought this was humiliating Luo Chen. Who would have thought this was exactly what Luo Chen had designed, meant to humiliate them.
Now the two of them were like two great fools!
And if this matter got out, how embarrassing would that be.
After all, falling for such a low-level little trick.
It completely didn’t match their status as second-generation rich kids and young masters of prestigious families.
“The two of you colluded long ago. This is fraud!” Liu Yunwei snorted coldly.
“Uncle, that statement of yours isn’t right. First, I didn’t collude with this big brother. Second, you were the ones who insisted on buying. I didn’t force you.”
Ren Siyu said irritably, even deliberately calling Liu Yunwei “uncle.”
“Luo, you are asking for death!” Liu Yunwei issued a fierce threat, seemingly so furious with embarrassment that he was about to make a move.
He had always looked down on Luo Chen, always thinking he could personally beat Luo Chen to a pulp to vent the hatred in his heart!
After all, in his eyes, Luo Chen was just an ordinary person. When it came to fighting skills, he didn’t put ten Luo Chens in his eyes.
But just at this moment, Yu Shasha tugged at Liu Yunwei’s hand, indicating someone was coming.
Liu Yunwei looked into the distance, and his face involuntarily sank.
A Pu Zigui had actually come again.
So Liu Yunwei whispered a few words in Jiang Yifei’s ear, and Jiang Yifei also looked at Luo Chen with hatred.
“Hmph, count yourself lucky today.” Liu Yunwei and Jiang Yifei left together.
Yu Shasha naturally followed them.
“Having your little fun, are you happy?” Shen Yuelan spoke up.
She was liking Luo Chen more and more. This child was indeed outstanding in both conduct and character.
One could even say he was more outstanding than some of the young masters of prestigious families she had seen.
For example, that move just now against Jiang Yifei.
Even someone with Jiang Yifei’s brains had fallen for it. One could see how formidable Luo Chen was. Fortunately, this child wasn’t bad. If he were bad, who knew how many people would suffer misfortune.
“You saw him falling for it and didn’t stop him?” Luo Chen asked in return.
“Let him suffer a bit of loss. It’s good for him, stops him being so arrogant all day long.” Shen Yuelan laughed cheerfully.
A million to buy Jiang Yifei a lesson was already worth it.
“If he really is your relative, you’d best get him to rein it in a bit. Next time, his luck won’t be so good.” Luo Chen shook his head.
“You brat, are you completely lawless now?”
“Although I don’t know your background, I advise you to provoke him less. He doesn’t have much ability, certainly can’t outplay you, but after all, he is the son of the chairman of Tianyao Group.”
“And Tianyao Group is the crown prince of the Jiang Family of Yanjing. That’s no ordinary small character. Their power is stronger than you can imagine.” Shen Yuelan also gave Luo Chen a warning.
Of course, she was doing it for Luo Chen’s good, afraid that Luo Chen would cause some major trouble.
The Jiang Family of Yanjing, like the Shen Family, was a truly prominent and influential family in the country!
Not a city, not a province, but the whole nation!
The Shi Family of Xiangxi now faintly had the reputation of being the number one family in Xiangxi, but they were merely a fang of the Jiang Family.
One could imagine just how terrifying the Jiang Family was.
But the Jiang Family’s influence was far more than just this.
Just as she said this, A Pu Zigui arrived with the contract.
This made Shen Yuelan quite excited. As she signed the contract, she secretly praised Luo Chen again.
But she still decided she needed to find an opportunity to properly caution Luo Chen, not to completely fall out with Jiang Yifei.
After all, the Jiang Family of Yanjing was truly terrifying to the extreme.
After the few of them signed the contract, Luo Chen made arrangements with Ren Siyu, then returned to the hotel first. Tomorrow he still had to go herb-picking with Ren Siyu, to refine some pills to resist corpse poison.
This matter needed to be hurried, because the Blood Fiend side might also be preparing to make their move.
On the other side, in an ancient village, in a stilted building, a youth with patterns tattooed on his face led Jiang Yifei, Liu Yunwei, and the others inside.
If one looked closely at that youth, he seemed somewhat simple-minded, his eyes somewhat vacant.
“Father, Young Master Jiang has arrived.” The youth looked towards the darkness.
“Uncle Gui, long time no see.” Jiang Yifei greeted.
