Chapter 507 - 506: The Free Stuff Is the Most Expensive
The sudden sound echoed not far from the corridor where the service personnel were located.
Just now, he was completely unprepared, which scared him briefly.
Now he reacted, his face quickly regaining composure from the brief fright.
Then, inwardly he begrudged: He knew that people coming into their ’Farmhouse Joy’ couldn’t be so quiet, this Lady Yun was truly an exception.
If he’s not mistaken, right now, another colleague should be earning a lot of commission soon.
Inside the room, Yun Ran, who had just squinted her eyes, also heard the sound.
The sound had been brief and not loud, disappearing immediately afterward.
If it were anyone else, they’d likely question whether they’d misheard.
Yun Ran was too exhausted, and with her eyes closed, she weakly instructed the Little Paperman: "Go see what happened."
The Little Paperman who had served Yun Ran water earlier was the idle one, immediately flying out.
Although the sound vanished quickly, locating things like this was no issue for the Little Paperman.
Soon, it found the spot where the sound had originated.
Another intact corridor had fragments of wood scattered all over, indicating intense combat had occurred earlier.
The person currently cleaning was also dressed as a service personnel but obviously hadn’t noticed the Ginsengfruit.
The Ginsengfruit clung to the eaves, inching its body slowly.
Since one of its members was previously discovered when seeking Elder Gong due to air fluctuations, they were now extra cautious.
Finally, it slid its head through the gap in the eaves.
Upon seeing a robust man on the ground, tightly restrained by two people in white coats, the Little Paperman’s eyes widened.
Immediately, it associated it with the legendary black market the leader mentioned before!
It immediately shared everything it saw with Yun Ran.
The man pressed on the ground had a flushed face, his mouth moving silently.
Only after one of the white coats injected him with medicine did he calm down.
The Little Paperman’s first thought was this place wasn’t just a black market, but also financially exploitative and murderous.
If it hadn’t seen everything, it’d want to fly back immediately.
Once the man recovered, the two in white coats helped him up, his face showing obvious joy.
"Sorry, I was too reckless earlier, hope I didn’t hurt you..."
The Little Paperman was full of questions, not understanding the situation.
Were it not for the inappropriate setting, it would fly down to ask what the three were up to!
Although the white coats wore masks, the Ginsengfruit still caught a hint of smile from the eyes exposed.
"No worries, Mr. Yang. Our medicine, without personal experience, all words are just puffery."
The man called Mr. Yang straightened his previously disheveled clothes, showing a satisfied smile.
He nodded repeatedly: "Good, good, this custom medicine based on my physique is truly effective, I’ll reserve two years then."
The Little Paperman was completely perplexed, despite having spiritual wisdom, such complex matters were hard to watch.
Luckily, it had already shared everything it saw with the Host.
The Host was so skilled, she could surely understand.
Though exhausted and seemingly asleep, Yun Ran saw every ’image’ the Little Paperman shared back.
Even with just part of it, Yun Ran could guess the whole story.
Goodness, she thought to herself, charging five million a month for a Class A Seclusion Room, how could they be so generous as to let her here for free?
Turns out, body checks were the main focus, the rest was incidental.
The person called Mr. Yang undoubtedly enjoyed their diagnostic service.
Brand-new machines, operating for decades, likely have some glitches.
A man living for decades, having no minor ailments would be odd.
Yun Ran dared to say, anyone who went through the inspection would surely find a heap of issues.
In the Seclusion Room before, she too consumed their ’free’ medicine, which was truly effective, at least made with genuine materials.
Anyone knowledgeable and experienced with them would easily accept the medicine promotions, maybe even actively want to purchase.
The previous medicine provided should be the general version, while the post-diagnosis medicine must be custom.
Healing hidden injuries should be a breeze, prolonging life shouldn’t be a problem either.
Understanding these, Yun Ran felt somewhat envious and resentful, they were exceptionally good at business.
Making money off Xuan Sect members could make them filthy rich.
"Come back!"
Yun Ran remained lazily lying on the chair, her voice sounding deeply fatigued.
The Little Paperman, while ’spying,’ heard the Host’s call, wiggling its lower half twice, withdrawing its head from the eave’s gap.
As night fully descended, Yun Ran finally had enough sleep, stretching lazily, feeling refreshed.
"Sleeping in a place full of vitality feels so good~"
The Ginsengfruit quickly brought fresh fruit to Yun Ran: "Host, you say, they promoted so many custom medicines to others, why didn’t they recommend them to us."
Yun Ran took a bite of pineapple before replying: "Naturally, it’s because people willing to fall prey, if they pushed sales to every newcomer, it’d look ugly.
This is just like the traps outside makeshift card deals, initially offering free deals, once hooked, you’re at their mercy."
Pausing, Yun Ran continued:" So, the free things are the most costly, don’t think about taking any cheap advantage later."
The Ginsengfruit nodded repeatedly, its body didn’t need any restoration medicine.
Abruptly thinking of something, the Ginsengfruit quickly shoved the medicine it took from the Seclusion Room to Yun Ran.
"I was pressed down by the Seclusion Room’s gravitational pressure for half a month before adapting, afterward slowly moving, eventually freely walking.
Upon leaving, I felt extraordinarily light and relaxed, I didn’t consume the medicine but since we paid for it, it shouldn’t benefit others, so I brought it all out."
Yun Ran looked at the medicine pushed into her hand and nodded with satisfaction.
Great, not losing money, this aspect follows her style.
