Chapter 16 Microwave_3
"Brother Mu, practicing martial arts is most important for replenishing Qi-Blood. Although these ginseng roots aren't much, they're perfect for daily nourishment."
"Brother Mu, eat these first. When you're done, let me know, and I will bring more."
Li Deshang pointed at a row of ten ginseng roots and then gestured towards the Silver Coins below.
"Here are eight hundred Silver Coins, including the previous bounty, as well as everyone's goodwill. We are grateful for Brother Mu's righteous action last night, and of course, there's compensation."
"Although it's far from enough, Brother Mu, trust me, soon there will be true compensation."
The compensation is because the Chen Residence was unable to complete its task due to a fire.
Li Deshang didn't elaborate.
Jason didn't ask further questions.
The two understood each other without words.
Jason signaled Dou Bao to collect the Silver Coins and ginseng.
Dou Bao needs to buy groceries to cook, and with his huge appetite, especially for meat, only enough Silver Coins would allow him to prepare more and better meals.
As for the ginseng?
Making soup is the first choice.
That relies on Dou Bao.
Carrying the small box, Dou Bao turned and left.
Li Deshang and Jia Youcai couldn't help but be quietly astonished.
Even the servant holding the box just now couldn't walk as easily as Dou Bao.
Moreover, Jason seemed to trust Dou Bao so much.
Just gave away eight hundred Silver Coins?
Instantly, the two raised Dou Bao's position in their minds.
The iron armor and Horse-Cleaving Saber were simply hung in the hall.
The martial arts school's decor was not as complicated as a regular home, with weapons like knives, guns, swords, and halberds allowed indoors, and there were ready-made racks for weapons and armor.
Looking at the iron armor and Horse-Cleaving Saber hung on the wall opposite the main entrance, Li Deshang couldn't help but nod.
"Not bad, it adds a touch of prowess."
Li Deshang said, taking out a small box from his chest.
"A portion of 'Tiger Blood Strong Yuan Powder' and five 'Nourishing Essence Pills.'
Jason, who had long smelled the 'food' aroma, wasn't surprised at all.
Similarly, he was not surprised at how quickly Li Deshang managed to get a portion of 'Tiger Blood Strong Yuan Powder' and five 'Nourishing Essence Pills.'
Upon first meeting, even if it's a partnership, who would reveal everything they have?
That's not partnership.
That's a fat sheep.
Jason was well aware of this.
Li Deshang offered an apologetic gesture.
"Please forgive me, Brother Mu."
"It's truly because this brother is meeting Brother Mu for the first time that I had to be cautious."
"Now, this brother is truly ashamed."
Saying this, Li Deshang bowed deeply.
However, he was immediately held up by Jason.
He had already acquired what he wanted and still needed Li Deshang to 'expand his sources,' so it wasn't necessary to be so pretentious now.
"I understand."
Jason responded.
"Understanding is good, understanding is good."
"When I came, indeed, this brother was apprehensive, but Brother Mu's understanding reassures me."
"Brother Mu, rest assured, 'Tiger Blood Strong Yuan Powder' of this level is hard to find in Mountain City, but pills like 'Nourishing Essence Pills' are abundant. This brother will absolutely find them for Brother Mu."
Li Deshang, as if a burden lifted, smiled once more.
Then, this chief official of 'Mountain City' continued.
"After a busy day, this brother and others haven't eaten or drinken, and I've heard the 'Drunken Fairy Chicken' at the 'Drunken Fairy Tower' is quite delicious. Brother Mu, would you like to join us?"
As he spoke, Li Deshang looked at Jason expectantly.
This was another opportunity to strengthen their relationship.
If Jason agreed, it represented a further improvement in their relationship, which was what he most hoped for.
If Jason didn't agree, he would find other ways to strengthen his relationship with Jason.
But unexpectedly to Li Deshang, Jason stood up immediately and said —
"Brother Gousheng, let's go."
