Chapter 25: Crooked Grass (1)

However, Ye Qingtang was not the least bit depressed by this difficulty. Instead, he smiled and said to his assistant: "Call your manager."

The assistant was a little surprised by his sudden request, “Nona Ye, if there is anything you need, you can ask me to ...”

“Call your manager, if you want Bent Grasses.” Ye Qingtang interrupted and gave him a somewhat cold eye look.

When met with his cold gaze, the assistant suddenly felt his blood cold. But, when he mentioned "Curvy Grass", he started shaking, for another reason.

Duan Tianrui did not know what Ye Qingtang was up his sleeve and just assumed he was fooling himself. He urged the assistant instead: "Don't hesitate to get your manager, I will ..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the assistant had already rushed off.

Within moments, the assistant returned hurriedly, accompanied by a man in his fifties.

“Nona Ye, I'm the manager of this boutique. It's nice to meet you." The middle-aged man greeted Ye Qingtang before cutting into the chase, "I've heard from my assistant about the Crooked Grass that you have mentioned, may I know ... any information you have about that?"

Although the manager remained calm as he spoke, his eyes echoed his wishes.

Bent Grass was a precious herb sought by the owner of the Treasure Pavilion. His request was mounted on all branches in the continent, promising a hefty reward of ten thousand gold for every Bent Grass found. However, until now, there was not the slightest clue of its location.

"I know where you can find him." Ye Qingtang stated clearly.

Duan Tianrui sneered from the side after hearing what he claimed.

A girl who had not even turned sixteen and had never set foot outside of the city; where would she know the existence of such a rare herb?

The manager's eyes twinkled in anticipation, "Miss Ye, we can make sure you will be rewarded accordingly once you give us that information."

Duan Tianrui almost laughed out loud at his "revelation.

The Withered Woods is located along Lin City. Although there are several types of plants, but all are known as common plants. Only a fool would hope to find Bent Grass growing there.

No one would believe such outrageous claims.

The manager did not expect Ye Qingtang to mention the Wilting Forest. His burning anticipation, like a fire doused in ice water, vanished in an instant and his face became stiff with disappointment.

"Miss Ye, you must be kidding, that's impossible."

“What if it's true?” Ye Qingtang went on to say: "Get someone to prepare the paper and ink, I'll draw the exact location for you."

The manager thought of his info as nonsense, but judging from his confident attitude, even though he furrowed his brows and hesitated for a moment, he passed the order to prepare the stationery he requested.

Ye Qingtang drew a simple map quickly, with the supposed location of the Bent Grass pointed on it.

The manager handed the map to one of his trusted assistants.

The crowd of bystanders, who watched the assistants leave with the map made their faces piqued with curiosity. No one knew how Ye Qingtang found the confidence to make that map.

The manager had heard from his assistant, about Duan Tianrui and his dispute about the ownership of Flora's moon stone. Now he has sent his assistant to check the authenticity of his claims, although the results seem as everyone expected, but the manager still decided to bet on the one in a million odds to hit the jackpot. "Sir Duan, please wait a moment until we finish this." The manager asked from Duan Tianrui.

Duan Tianrui smirked and said: “Don't be in a hurry. I'm also hoping your good company can find the potion. ” By saying that, he gave Ye Qingtang a dirty look.

Seriate....
