Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World
Chapter 64: Finding The Whereabout
Jia Hao''s expression turned strange when he realized what sort of place Phoenix Cloud Pavilion was.
'' Eh? So my wife really gave permission to go there? Why? Because I have not consummated my marriage with her?''
Jia Hao could see the train of her thoughts. After all, she doesn''t want to be labeled as a wife who deprived her husband of the physical pleasure of women.
However, she was also not ready to give her body to Jia Hao. So, the only thing she can do is to allow Jia Hao to go to Phoenix Cloud Pavilion.
" Well, Does...Anyone else from our household goes?" Jia Hao asked in a low voice.
" Many elders go in the weekend." Old Yang answered in a similar low voice.
" What about Father in Law?"
" He..." Old Yang hesitated. " Why should he go to such a place?"
" Really?" Jia Hao raised his brows as he looked at Old Yang skeptically.
" Well..." Old Yang looked around as he whispered " One year ago, Patriarch slipped to the Phoenix Cloud Pavilion."
" Then?"
" After that, Madame Li... I don''t know anything particular." Old Yang was about to say something but refrained.
" Everything got restricted for Patriarch for six months. Now, if someone utters the name of Phoenix Cloud Pavlion, Patriarch would beat him up."
'' Damn, Is my Mother in Law that fierce?'' Jia Hao couldn''t help but sigh.
No matter how powerful a man becomes, his wife truly becomes his bane at home.
" Why do you ask, Young Lord?" Old Yang looked at Jia Hao with suspicious gaze.
" What? I am just gathering some information. That''s all." Jia Hao shrugged as he turned around, walking away.
" Haah, It''s good to be young." Old Yang sighed as he saw him leaving.
Jia Hao''s mind raced with many possibilities as he walked our from the Cai Family mansion.
'' Well, Now I have reached Earthen Organ Stage, I can easily sprint to the city easily.'' Jia Hao mumbled inwardly as he took a deep breath and started to jog.
Hearing Pharmacist Mo, Jia Hao grasped the situation even better. " But, He is injured, no? How could he have gone outside without any suspicion?"
" Hmm, That''s also true."
Jia Hao suddenly thought of something. " Then, Assume he wants to heal himself at home. What sort of medicines he would need?"
" For example, A two hundred year Blood Lingzhi, a century old Spotted Condopsis Root, A century old Azure Light Flower, and..." Pharmacist Mo gave a list.
" And after that, take small portions of them and prepare some ointment to apply outside and a soup to drink. These herbs are very rare and expensive and our store only has a few."
" And even if he takes all of them, it will take at least two months before he recovers."
" Then, May I see if any of these herbs were sold past fifteen days?" Jia Hao asked. Pharmacist Mo nodded as he called the receptionist with the account book.
Sure enough, someone paid more than 10,000 taels of gold and purchased a century old Spotten Condopsis Roots. And it was sold twice in last month.
" One was from our regular customer Mr. Ning. He is a merchant and he has been purchasing the root once in every two months since last year." The receptionist replied.
" As for the other one...She was a woman wearing expensive jewelry. She said it was for her...Child, I think?"
" She was a middle aged woman holding a basket of vegetables and meat."
Jia Hao''s eyes narrowed when he heard that. It aligned with a theory he thought earlier.
Disguise.
After knowing the description of the woman, Jia Hao nodded as he turned around before rushing away.
There are three main medicinal stores with rare herbs. Excluding Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, There should be Purple Pine Store and Xian Medicinal Pavilion.
'' If my guess is correct, that woman must have gone to these places together with other ingredients.''
Checking one by one, and bribing the receptionists and accountants a a few hundred taels of gold, Jia Hao got the information he wanted.
And behold! It was the same middle aged woman who purchased the two century old Blood Lingzhi and Azure Light Flower!
'' That bastard! He is here!'' Jia Hao''s mind raced as he formed a map of Nanhai City.
'' Now the last question. Where is he hiding?''
