Chapter 856 The Dongfangs Pharmacy

It looked like a modern bank.

However, looking around, she discovered that most of the customers here were well-dressed, either rich or n.o.ble.. No wonder there were shop a.s.sistants specially serving them.

The shop a.s.sistant serving Lin Mengya fetched a writing brush and ink from inside and put them on the small square table beside her.

He asked, Im wondering if you want to fill a prescription or to consult a doctor before that?

There were usually physicians on duty in pharmacies.

Of course, physicians hired by high-cla.s.s pharmacies were more proficient, so plenty of people came here to seek diagnoses.

Lin Mengya shook her head, picked up the writing brush and dipped it in ink, and wrote down the names and quant.i.ties of the medicinal materials she needed on the paper.

She said, Just fill this prescription please.

The shop a.s.sistant took the list from her with a broad smile, checked it carefully twice, and then went to line up on their behalf in front of the counters.

Even picky customers would be satisfied with such meticulous and satisfactory service.

Miss, do you know who owns this pharmacy? Baisu asked in a low and deep voice.

Lin Mengya looked around. Although there were quite a few customers, she still faintly sensed a few subtle but aggressive gazes from several corners.

Who other than the Dongfang family could own such a sumptuous store? she said.

The reason for the prosperity of the pharmacy was nothing but its powerful owner.

Otherwise, others would have been able to get a share of the big cake.

Thats true. Now its in the charge of Miss Dongfang Xiu from the eldest branch of the Dongfang family. Nevertheless, because she is still young, its run by Dongfang Xu for the time being, Baisu, who was well-informed, said.

Lin Mengya was a little surprised.

Raising her eyebrows, she stared thoughtfully at the counters where people came and went.

Xiu, as the adopted daughter of the Dongfang family, presumably would not have been able to own such a large store without Dongfang Xus support.

But Lin Mengya was a little curious about the reason why Xiu could enjoy such preferential treatment in the Dongfang family given her ident.i.ty.

Lin Mengya believed that Dongfang Xu cared about Xiu although Xiu was adopted, as she still remembered when she first met him, the worry he showed for Xiu was true.

Now learning that such a large pharmacy was owned by Xiu, she obviously smelled something fishy about it.

She asked, Arent there other branches of the Dongfang family? Are they willing to give up this pharmacy?

Although it was a little inappropriate to gossip about the Dongfang family in their place, Xiu was involved in it, so Lin Mengya had to make further inquiries.

Baisu pouted her lips and cast a glance at a group of men who had just gotten in.

Look, they come to make trouble. No one is willing to give away such a profitable business. We seem to be unlucky today. I hope we could get the medicinal materials smoothly later, Baisu said with a sigh, standing in front of Lin Mengya subconsciously, seeming to be secretly on guard.

With her presence around Lin Mengya, she would keep Lin Mengya off danger.

Looking over Baisus shoulder, Lin Mengya looked at those men who had just gotten in.

Although they did not look very fierce, the head of them had sharp eyes and appeared to be a hard nut to crack.

Those men behind the head all breathed steadily. At first glance, she could tell that they had practiced martial arts.

Fifth Master, what brought you here? A discerning shop a.s.sistant came up to greet him with a smile.

The man, called Fifth Master, strode past him after casting an indifferent glance at him, acting as if he were the owner of this pharmacy.

Knowing that the man was not to be trifled with, the observant shop a.s.sistant hurriedly followed him with a forced smile.

Hows the business these days? the man asked.

Meanwhile, he casually strolled back and forth in front of the counters and inadvertently glanced at the customers who were waiting.

At the sight of Lin Mengya and Baisu, he stared at them for a moment.

Thanks to you, its not too bad, Fifth Master. As the shop a.s.sistant chattered with the man, he winked at his colleagues inside.

Lin Mengya saw an inconspicuous shop a.s.sistant go rapidly behind the counters.

Her intuition told her that there might be trouble in the pharmacy today.

However, she could not afford to delay buying the medicinal materials.

So she could only brace herself to continue sitting there.

Thats good. What medicine does the lady want to buy? Give me the prescription for a look, the man said, fixing his eyes on Lin Mengya who was protected by Baisu behind her.

The face of the shop a.s.sistant, who had served them just now, suddenly turned pale.

Fifth Master, Im afraid this is out of line, he said, looking at the man in trouble.

However, the man only gave the shop a.s.sistant an intimidating look. Then, the shop a.s.sistant secretly gave him the list made by Lin Mengya just now.

These medicinal materials are all good stuff. Go and invite the two ladies to the inner hall. Im going to receive them in person. As the man said, he put the list into his pocket.

All this was seen by Lin Mengya.

Seeing that the shop a.s.sistant was in a predicament, Lin Mengya took a closer look at the man.

Given his appearance, he did not appear to be a lecherous man or rogue.

In this case, he presumably asked to meet them for other reasons.

She lowered her eyes and showed a sneer.

It was true that women were weak in the eyes of most men. But unfortunately, she, Lin Mengya, was a th.o.r.n.y rose.

If he intended to cause her trouble, he had better be prepared to be seriously hurt by her.

Fifth Master, you cant do that! The shop a.s.sistant implored him piteously.

Every time the man came here, he tried to find fault with some customers who were easy touches.

His doing that a few times had little influence, but as he did that for long, plenty of people said that their pharmacy relied on their large scale and treated customers rudely.

If it had not been for the trustworthy reputation of their pharmacy, they probably would have lost their customers by now.

Whats wrong? Are you going to disobey Fifth Masters order? Stop talking nonsense. Fifth Master, in charge of the Dongfang family, is your boss, one of his attendants behind him said reproachfully.

A few sensible customers knew what was going on.

Pondering for a while, Lin Mengya knew that even if the man did not find fault with her, he would find fault with someone else instead.

She would rather confront the man herself.

In any case, this pharmacy was owned by Xiu. She and Baisu certainly could not stay out of this and leave.

Seeing the shop a.s.sistant take mincing steps to her, Lin Mengya gave him a mild smile.

Miss, Im really sorry that my boss invites you to the inner hall for a discussion, he said.

The shop a.s.sistant, who thought that he would be turned down, saw the beautiful lady nod as soon as he finished speaking.

He was a little surprised, thinking that she didnt hear his words clearly.

He said, Miss, do you

Its great that your boss is going to fill the prescription personally. Please show me the way, Lin Mengya said, exchanging glances with Baisu tacitly.

Baisu realized that Lin Mengya might think it inconvenient to deal with the man with too many people around.

She immediately moved out of the way and followed Lin Mengya.

Thank you for your understanding, Miss. Please come with me, the shop a.s.sistant said, obviously not expecting her to be so easy to deal with.

He immediately led her behind the counters and told her in a low voice that she did not have to panic so as to console her.

Lin Mengya promised what he told her and followed him to the back hall.

The back hall was a little smaller than the front hall, but it was more tasteful and tranquil.

Sit down. As soon as she got in, she heard the mans voice and saw stairs by the door that led to the second floor.

After looking around, Lin Mengya frowned slightly.

Although she had no idea why the man chose to pick on her, the back hall was so quiet that no matter what happened here, it wouldnt be heard by people outside in a short time.

She withdrew her gaze and looked at the man in front of her.

No matter who he was, his ident.i.ty meant nothing in front of her.

Miss, we cant provide the medicinal materials you want for the time being. Please go to another pharmacy, the man sitting behind the desk said, a little arrogant in manner.

Lin Mengya, however, lifted the corners of her mouth to give him a meaningful smile.

An ordinary person would definitely think the man intended to humiliate her by going back on his words.

Unfortunately, he tried to pick on Lin Mengya today.

It doesnt matter that you dont have these medicinal materials. I just want to buy some medicinal materials in your pharmacy today. I will buy whatever you have, Lin Mengya said in a soft voice.

But the man, obviously realizing a further implication of her words, raised his eyebrows.

In the past, once the customers he chose were turned down by him, they either shouted abuse or instantly got out of the pharmacy while complaining about being treated rudely in this large pharmacy.

But now, this lady acted as if coming to pick on him.

The medicinal materials in our pharmacy are expensive. Im afraid that you cant afford them, Miss, the man said rudely and arrogantly, picking up the cup of hot tea in front of him.

He obviously looked down on Lin Mengya and Baisu who were dressed in common clothes.

Money isnt a problem to me. Even the most precious medicinal material in your pharmacy probably wont cost all my money. But is it possible for you to show it to me, sir? Lin Mengya said with a cold smile.

This was an undisguised provocation.

She was in a bad mood at the moment. This detestable guy just asked for it.

What a boastful lady! Miss, I a.s.sume you are unaware of the rules of our pharmacy, arent you? the man said with a sneer.

Since the lady in front of him touched his sore spot, it seemed he had no choice but to deal with her without mercy.

Its true that Im unaware of the special rules of your pharmacy. Your pharmacy is open for business, but you tried to drive your customer away for no reason. No matter how expensive your most precious medicinal material is, it has a price. I want to buy it, but you refuse to show it to me. No businessman in the world will do this. Could it be possible that you are not necessarily the real boss? Lin Mengya said bluntly.

Hearing this, the attendants behind him couldnt help glaring at the delicate lady in front of them, not to mention him who showed a cold look in his eyes.

However, the other slim lady stood in front of Lin Mengya determinedly with a cold look in her eyes that made her look as tough as the burly men in front of her.

She said, I dont care who you are, but since you claim to be the boss, you should show us what you got. If I were you, I would run away with my tail between my legs so as not to embarra.s.s myself here.
