My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage-Chapter 61 - Everyone Thinks They Got A Bargain

Even if the pills reached an extremely high price at the auction, it was unlikely to exceed double the market price.

After all, the pills mainly served a recuperative purpose and couldn’t compare to those life-saving medicines.

The price Zhuang Lin was offering her was definitely very fair, even… she felt it was a bit too much.

“Three times the price!”

Zhuang Lin gritted his teeth and said.

“?”

Chu Nanli slowly formed a question mark above her head, looking at him blankly.

Zhuang Lin clenched the pills in his hand.

He knew the medicine was valuable; the Princess Consort wouldn’t sell it to him easily!

No! If it comes to it, he would add more—today he must secure the pills! The extra money given could be considered the cost of befriending a genius alchemist!

Determined, Zhuang Lin opened his mouth and was about to offer more when…

“Owner Zhuang,” Chu Nanli blinked her eyes, softening the cool countenance on her face, appearing more of a ravishing young girl.

“There’s no need to bid more. I am willing to sell this bottle directly to Owner Zhuang. However, I need Owner Zhuang’s support in hyping up the auction of the other bottles and making a scene.”

Chu Nanli had a clear understanding; the support of the Auction House’s owner of Xia Kingdom was much more valuable than mere gold and silver.

Zhuang Lin was stunned for a moment before understanding Chu Nanli’s intention.

Being a businessman with an active mind, he quickly grasped Chu Nanli’s plan, and his good impression of her climbed another notch.

This girl was truly clever!

He enjoyed dealing with intelligent people.

It seemed that all the rumors about the Princess Consort of War God Residence from the outside world were not to be believed!

“Having received such magnificent medicine from the Divine Doctor, helping the Princess Consort make a splash is only right. However, regarding the price, Zhuang insists on paying three times to the Princess Consort,” Zhuang Lin said with a smile.

Seeing that he was eager to give her money, and since she was indeed short on funds, Chu Nanli had no reason to refuse, so she responded with a smile.

“Many thanks.”

The two exchanged glances, each feeling like they had gotten the better end of the deal.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhuang Lin placed the bottle for treating damaged meridians into his sleeve and said to Chu Nanli, “For the other pills, Zhuang will have professional pharmacists set the starting bid. After a successful transaction, the Auction House will take a forty percent commission.”

Chu Nanli nodded to show she understood.

Zhuang Lin then had someone call for the pharmacist and afterward asked, “Does the Princess Consort wish to use her real name for the transaction, or…?”

Chu Nanli said, “Liuli. Just use this alias, and Owner Zhuang can say it is from Divine Doctor Liuli from the south at that time.”

Establishing a reputation with this first step was crucial, like how a talent agency in her previous life would create a star, needing to dazzle on the first appearance.

Now that the owner of the Auction House was willing to help her make a splash personally, she naturally wanted to make good use of it.

Zhuang Lin inwardly praised Chu Nanli’s thorough and mature thinking and readily agreed.

“Good! The name Liuli is also quite nice.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Nanli’s eyes curved into a smile.

This was her “Martial World Title” drawn by lots from her previous life, of course it was good.

“By the way, these few bottles of pills still need names…”

Chu Nanli’s smiling face became serious as she said, “Owner Zhuang should come up with the names.”

Zhuang Lin was flattered and exclaimed, “Really? Thank you for trusting Zhuang that much, Princess Consort!”

“Mm, no need to be formal,” Chu Nanli said.

Behind her, Chu Yi, who knew the inside story, lifted his eyes, a faint smile flickering in their depths.
