Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1251: Chapter 1251: Hundred Medicine Conference

Lu Xiaobu had a few days of peace, which helped him relax.

Of course, it was only him who found peace. Both the Lu Group and the outside world never really stopped.

Lu Xiaobu didn’t bother with those things.

He just wanted to find a place to have some fun.

But he wasn’t interested in ordinary places, they were too crowded, and the good scenery was all filled with people.

Have you ever noticed that the truly great places are usually unknown to the outside world?

Otherwise, once discovered, trust me, they’ll be swarming with people!

So.

”Is there any fun place around?” Lu Xiaobu asked Ye Changsheng, ”There must be some hidden wonders in the Jianghu world, right? Let’s go have some fun.”

”Let me think.” Ye Changsheng scratched his chin and thought for a moment, ”At this time of year, how about visiting Medicine King Valley?”

”Medicine King Valley? You mean that 4A tourist spot?” Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes and asked, ”I don’t want to go to a crowded place.”

”You’re talking about the Outer Valley; I’m referring to the Inner Valley.” Ye Changsheng waved his hand and said, ”The outside is a tourist area, while the Inner Valley is where the Medicine King Valley sect is located. Currently, it’s the time for the annual Hundred Medicine Conference.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Hundred Medicine Conference?”

Ye Changsheng: ”In simple terms, it’s the time when Medicine King Valley offers discounts on their medicines. So most Jianghu people choose this time to buy some herbs or medicines.”

Lu Xiaobu thought about it and smiled, ”Sounds good, let’s check it out. Do we need any qualifications or something?”

”Qualifications? You’ve got them.” Ye Changsheng shrugged, ”You’re an Honorary Master and the largest herbal supplier in the Jianghu right now. Who would dare stop you from going?”

”Alright, let’s go there then.” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

”By the way, it’s best to bring your father along. It’s a great environment there, good for the elderly’s health.” Ye Changsheng thought for a moment and added.

Lu Xiaobu: ”Yeah, it’s just right to take my father for a relaxation trip. Maybe we can find another bodyguard or something.”

...

Thus, Lu Xiaobu and his group set off for Medicine King Valley.

However, they didn’t bring too many people as Liang Lan and Su Luoxue were too busy managing all the company’s affairs to come out.

Wu Qianmin initially wanted to come too, but she suddenly had some event to attend or something.

This little girl has been researching something lately, not even bothering Lu Xiaobu much.

In the end, it was just the little pepper who came along.

This little pepper was thrilled, clinging to Lu Xiaobu almost all day long.

”Dad, look, that’s Medicine King Valley up ahead.” Lu Xiaobu pointed to Medicine King Valley in the distance and said with a smile.

”Yes, I see it.” A smile appeared on Lu’s father’s face.

It wasn’t that he was happy about being out, but as a parent, he was overjoyed to be traveling with his son.

”I remember the entrance to the Inner Valley of Medicine King Valley is up ahead.” Ye Changsheng recalled and told the driver Zhang Meng, ”It’s been a while since I last came, I almost forgot.”

Although Ye Changsheng said he forgot, he didn’t direct them wrong, and the group drove to a building after some winding roads.

This building didn’t look special, like a residence built in a corner by the scenic area’s staff.

If you observe carefully while traveling, you might find similar residences on cliffs, behind scenic spots, and places that don’t affect tourism.

Just like other scenic area accommodations, this place also had signs indicating tourists should stop.

Lu Xiaobu and his group ignored this, stepping inside.

”Sorry, no tourists beyond this point.” A staff member came out and blocked their way with a smile.

”We’re here for the Hundred Medicine Conference.” Ye Changsheng volunteered.

”Oh, please, come in.” The staff member heard this and stepped aside to let them in.

”That easy?” Lu Xiaobu was surprised.

No need for qualifications, just walked in with a word?

”Yes, the Inner Valley of Medicine King Valley is actually gourd-shaped.”

Ye Changsheng explained, ”Although the Outer Valley is a tourist area and the Inner Valley is the sect’s place, the Inner Valley is divided into two layers.”

”The outer layer is a relatively ordinary market, where not only Jianghu people come, but many wealthy Heavenly Dynasty folks also come to buy medicine.”

”What really requires qualification is the innermost layer.”

With Ye Changsheng’s explanation, Lu Xiaobu understood.

Yes, Medicine King Valley sounds like a place that sells medicine. Who do they sell to?

All sold to Jianghu people?!

Not to mention the limited number of Jianghu people, even the prices are unaffordable for the average Jianghu person.

So, obviously, the wealthy who seek better health make the best customers.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaobu chuckled, guessing he might be the last wealthy person to know about this place, haha!

As Ye Changsheng explained, they exited from the back door of the building.

In an instant, their view opened up, revealing an elliptical valley ahead.

Shops of varying sizes lined the mountainside, and in the middle, like a market, were various stalls selling different items.

Not everything was about medicine; they sold all sorts of things.

In just what Lu Xiaobu saw, there were talismans, compasses, and even weapons.

It seems like although it’s called the Hundred Medicine Conference, it’s not just about selling medicine.

”These Jianghu people have sourced goods from who knows where, and many come from places like cemeteries. They’re all trying to sell them during this time since there are plenty of wealthy people around.”

Ye Changsheng chuckled, ”This is one of the opportunities for lower-level Jianghu people to make a fortune. Of course, authenticity varies, so be cautious when buying. They’re eager to catch a wealthy customer and strike hard!”

He laughed as he looked at those stall owners, recalling how he used to be one of them.

Back then, he tricked a wealthy person to fund his cultivation.

So he’s quite familiar with all the tricks.

”But for now, let’s find a place to stay; we came just in time as the innermost layer opens tomorrow.” Ye Changsheng turned to look at the sign on the wall of the building behind them and said.

There was a sign indicating the Inner Valley’s opening tomorrow.

So, they found a place to settle down.

This inn is quite interesting, you know?

Unlike the typical floor-by-floor structure, this inn resembles Immortal abodes from fantasy novels, built into the mountainside. Looking down from above, it almost feels like an ethereal experience.

Interestingly, they encountered an acquaintance.
