The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife-Chapter 448 The Supply Doesn’t Meet the Demand
Was Murong family’s Cold Food Pill the same one she heard Gu Youlan talking about? Murong family was actually selling these pills in batches?
Those men spiritedly discussing all seemed to be between thirty and forty years old. The lowest, in cultivation, among them was at the beginning stage of Foundation Establishment stage while the highest was at the summit of Foundation Establishment stage.
Each of their clothes were different, indicating that they were all from different sects. However, this didn’t seem to affect their conversation much.
But their conversation halted when they noticed Hexi walking closer to them. They saw that her lips were red, her teeth were white, she was still young, and she was at Foundation Establishment stage. One of the men in the group stood out, his face had a full beard, and he couldn’t help but yell, “Little xiong di, do you want to buy pills too?”
Hexi’s expression remained indifferent, and she didn’t say anything in response.
The group of people thought that her silence was her tactically agreeing, so they couldn’t help but burst out into laughter. “Xiong di, you’ve arrived so late. Don’t even dream about getting a best quality pill, you may not even be able to get a top quality one.”
Hexi’s eyebrow raised in response. “Is there always this many people in line here?”
“Of course there is!” Another person responded to her at once, “If you don’t come extremely early to line up, then forget about buying any pills. You may not even be able to touch a spiritual herb. After all, the spiritual herbs that Sheng De Hall sells have much more spiritual qi than the ones that other stores sell.”
Following those words, the man with a beard nodded his head. “Moreover, even if we do line up like this, we can’t compare to the imperial family and influential families, ah!”
He pointed at the people lined up at the very front and heaved a sigh, clicking his tongue, “The only time we stood a chance was during the first few days, when everyone still didn’t know. Lately, all of Sheng De Hall’s best quality pills have practically all been taken by influential families.”
“We, ah… If we were able buy even one top quality pill, we would already be happy!”
When she saw this unusually lively scene, Hexi put down her heart. It looks like she didn’t need to worry about how to sell the pills that she and Dan Dan made.
“Little xiong di, how about you wait with us for a bit. If I buy a lot of pills, then I’ll evenly distribute some with you.”
Hexi waved her hands, refusing their good intentions. She turned around and flashed over to Sheng De Hall’s back door. In one jump, she landed on the second floor.

Once Hexi reached Sheng De Hall’s second floor, she saw Gu Liufeng, Xi San, and shopkeeper Zhou all congregating here.
Xi San and shopkeeper Zhou huddled together. In one moment, they looked excited, and in another, they looked anxious. She didn’t know what they were discussing to illicit such reactions from them.
Gu Liufeng sat on the bed, by an unconscious Gu Youlan. His expression was calm and gentle as he watched over her.
When all three people caught sight of Hexi, their faces let out surprised expressions. Xi San and shopkeeper Zhou immediately walked over to surround her.
Because Xi San had followed Hexi for the longest, he immediately started speaking without worries. “Gongzi, the pills you gave me last time are nearly sold out. Even though we limit the amount that you can buy, we still can’t meet the demand.”
“Moreover, those people are too enthusiastic and too crazy. They’ve made it so that we have no other choice but to close down shop in the afternoon at shen shi [1]. Otherwise, there would’ve been no other way we could have been selling pills for so many days.”
Hexi faintly smiled on response. Then, she took out a storage ring and tossed it over to Xi San.
Catching the ring, Xi San used his divine knowledge to look through the storage ring, and immediately turned lifeless. His two eyes protruded out, and for awhile, he didn’t breathe.
When shopkeeper Zhou saw that Xi San didn’t say anything for so long, he snatched the ring away without any explanation and used his own divine knowledge to look through it.
But when he looked through the storage ring, shopkeeper Zhou couldn’t help but let out a cry of surprise. “Oh my days! These… These are all pills? There are several thousand here, right?”
But Hexi’s expression was indifferent as she threw down an even heavier bomb. “All together, there are sixteen thousand pills. A majority of them are top quality, first ranked Supplement Spirit Pills and there are also a few second ranked Supplement Spirit Pills in there too.”
