Chapter 17: A Slight Misunderstanding

  After returning to the city, Wu Rui went straight to an advertising company called Yangxuan Advertising. The scale was not small and the decoration of the store was also good, but due to its remote location and it being afternoon, business was slow. At this time, there were no customers in the store, only a few technicians playing computer games, and a mature-looking woman in her thirties was bored and leaning on the cash register with a gloomy face.

  After some thought, Wu Rui pushed open the door and walked in.

  Seeing the Taoist youth who pushed open the door and came in, Yang Xiang was slightly stunned, but still warmly stood up to greet him and asked: "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

  The voice was charming enough to make people drunk, and as she stood up, Wu Rui only discovered that the other party's figure was actually good, not only was her skin well-maintained, but also had a proud upper body, and the silk stockings and beautiful legs under the tight skirt were enough to make people's blood boil.

  Fortunately, Wu Rui's composure and demeanor were not bad, so he quickly withdrew the unusual thoughts in his heart, nodded and smiled: "Hello, I want to make a painting album, do you think you can make it?"

  Not bad, Wu Rui's purpose for this trip is to create a 'Hundred Herb Painting Album'.

  Today, when discussing the diagnosis fee with Ah Niu, it almost became awkward because Wu Rui didn't understand the other party's world and the other party didn't understand his needs. Fortunately, there was someone in the Mina ring who had participated in the sample, and Osen Xingqiu also had someone participating, otherwise Wu Rui really wouldn't have known what to do at that time, and if he had accepted Ah Niu's offer blindly, it would have been a big problem.

  "An album?" Yang Xuan was taken aback again, this was undoubtedly a small business, but she was still enthusiastic and smiled: "Of course, it's just that I don't know what specific content you're going to make. Have you prepared the relevant materials?"

  The mature woman's attitude gave Wu Rui a few more points of favor, originally he was still worried that such a big store would look down on this small business! After hearing the other party's inquiry, Wu Rui also replied with some answers: "I want to make some herbal painting albums, I do have materials, but they are only handmade and don't have colors, so I hope you can help me find corresponding colored pictures on the internet."

  "Really......" Upon hearing this, Yang Xuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, seemingly feeling a bit troubled. However, she didn't hastily reject it and instead continued to patiently ask: "Then how many kinds of medicinal herb pictures do you need to find in total?"

  "A total of 15,368 varieties." Wu Rui blurted out a number without hesitation. In the "Shennong Bencaojing", the 'hundred' in the middle is not a specific number, but represents a multitude of meanings, while inside it clearly records data on 15,368 kinds of medicinal materials, spiritual grasses and spiritual fruits.

  "Cough, cough..." Yang Xuan was choked for a moment, then couldn't help but give Wu Rui a charming white eye and said: "Little Taoist priest, you're making it difficult for this young woman. Even if we can find 100 materials every day, to find all the pictures of over 10,000 kinds of medicinal materials, it would take at least half a year. Moreover, I'm afraid many of them cannot be found online. This task is really impossible for us to complete!"

  "This......" Wu Rui was stunned upon hearing this. He had thought that with the internet being so powerful, finding some pictures would be a simple task. Who would have thought it would be so difficult? Not to mention half a year, even half a month he couldn't wait! Wu Rui, who was encountering this kind of thing for the first time, couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Then what should we do now?"

  "Hmph..." Yang Xiang was suddenly amused, and her bright smile made the air around her seem to solidify.

  Wu Rui was stunned and thought to himself that even Liu's widow from the village wasn't as captivating as this!

  "Ahem!" Discovering Wu Rui's unusual gaze, Yang Xuan also felt that she had lost her composure, and after blushing slightly, she asked: "Little Daozhang..."

  "Actually... I'm not a Taoist." Wu Rui thought for a moment and interrupted Yang Xuan's words, correcting a very serious issue. How could the illustrious inheritor of Shen Nong possibly be a Taoist?

  "Huh... who are you?" Yang Xuan asked, looking at Wu Rui's Taoist robe, her face full of questions. Wasn't he a Taoist priest? Or was he an actor or something? Otherwise, why would he be running around the streets wearing such a long Taoist robe? Didn't he think that this outfit didn't match modern society?

  Yang Xuan's face was strange and she held back her laughter.

  "I am actually a doctor!" Wu Rui said loudly, his face filled with pride.

  ...but unexpectedly, Yang Xuan, who had been smiling all along, suddenly pulled down her face upon hearing this, and Wu Rui even saw a hint of disgust in her eyes.

  "What's going on here?" Wu Rui was stunned for a moment, in his impression, doctors were sacred, and the old man had always told him that the most favored men by girls from outside were doctors, so why was the situation exactly the opposite now?

  "Okay! Wu Rui had also heard that the medical ethics of doctors nowadays are not great, but it's just a few individuals, it shouldn't be to the point where people feel disgusted, right? But what happened next left him even more stunned."

  "Sorry, your album cannot be completed in our store, please leave!" Yang Xuan directly gave the order to drive the customer away, and sat back down with a straight face, completely different from her previous enthusiasm.

  Wu Rui was also a proud person, how could he leave with his tail between his legs? He also felt that there seemed to be some misunderstanding here, so he directly asked: "Is there some kind of misunderstanding between us? You're a businessman, it's not good to drive people away for no reason, is it?"

  Who would have thought that Yang Xuan was also a stubborn woman, and after hearing Wu Rui's words, she was immediately enraged. The disgust on her face was revealed without reservation, and her voice was icy cold as she said: "We don't have any misunderstandings. I, Yang Xuan, will absolutely not do business with scammers like you!"

  "Swindler?" Wu Rui's eyes became even more bewildered. Was the word "swindler" written on his face?

  "Hmph!" Seeing Wu Rui still pretending to be stupid in front of her, Yang Xuan coldly smiled and directly said: "At such a young age, what haven't you learned? You only learn how to cheat people out of their money. Are you telling others that you're some kind of divine doctor?"

  "Huh? How did you know?" Wu Rui was startled, could it be that this beauty, more enchanting than Liu's widow, was actually a fortune teller? But no, that can't be right, the other person was just an ordinary human being, how could they possibly calculate the fate of a cultivator like himself?

  This is unreasonable! Wu Rui was bewildered...

  "Hmph!" Hearing Wu Rui's shameless admission, Yang Xuan sneered and continued to ask in a cold tone: "Are you making the medicinal material album for patients to look at now?"

  "Huh? You even know this?" Wu Rui was startled again, and he involuntarily took a step back. The creation of the "Hundred Herb Painting Album" was something he had just decided on, and it was indeed meant for the patient with the spatial illness to see. But the problem was... how did this woman know? Even if she could calculate and deduce, the spatial clinic's defenses should have been able to prevent her from finding out!

  That's all for today, and finally ask for a recommendation vote again.
