Chapter 728

"That's great! It has been a while since the last time I encounter a great buyer like you. Please follow me, madam." The
shopkeeper clapped his hands and burst into laughter.
Glancing at Matthew, Harper then followed the shopkeeper into the backyard. The mansion consisted of a storefront with
warehouses and living space in the back. After the shopkeeper brought them directly into the innermost part of the warehouse,
he opened the door and said, "Feel free to look around and see if there's anything you want inside."
As Harper roamed around, she noticed that there were a lot of shelves with various kinds of boxes on them.
"Some of the medicinal materials can't be mixed together. Some are poisonous, and some are not, so we have to store them in
separate specially made boxes. Otherwise, the medicinal materials will lose their effects. Each box has a label that states the
function of the medicinal material inside it. You can choose the ones you like."
As Harper walked inside, Matthew simply stood at the door and waited. Harper carefully examined the medicinal herbs with the
shopkeeper following her closely behind. Whenever Harper focused her attention on a specific box, the shopkeeper would tell

fool Harper. After all, she could tell all of the medicinal materials in the tea just by taking a sip. From that, he concluded that she was not a simple person. So, he had better not offend her. "Madam, that's too little. You're going to need to pay me at least this much." The shopkeeper raised three fingers. When she heard this, Harper squinted her eyes and thought, 'He wants three hundred thousand taels of silver? He's asking for such an unreasonable amount. The medicinal herbs in this place should, at most, only be worth a

Although Matthew didn't know much about medicinal herbs, he could tell that Harper really wanted them. Three hundred
thousand taels of silver shouldn't be that big of a number for them. They could easily afford them. That being said, since Harper
thought that they shouldn't be worth that much, he also thought they were definitely not. So, he decided not to chime in and just
watched them negotiate.
"Do you have other goods aside from the ones in this warehouse?"
"Madam, I have the most precious treasure of the South Kingdom. Would it be worth the price?" the shopkeeper whispered
under his breath.

goods first." The shopkeeper walked toward a wall and knocked rhythmically on it, and then a box popped out. The moment the shopkeeper opened the box, Harper saw clearly that there were three red fruits stored inside the box, which happened to be the sacred treasure of the South Kingdom—the Rosefinch Fruit.
