Chapter 449 - Conspiracy

Translator: Lonelytree

After some time, just as everyone was worried that the child would pass away, a small figure suddenly came in and asked loudly, “where is the patient?”

…

In a certain house in Ning An town, a few people were gathered together, seemingly in the middle of a discussion.

If someone were here, they would immediately recognize these people. They were basically the shopkeepers of the town’s medicine shops and doctors from various medical halls.

“We have to think of a way to get rid of the Lin medicine shop,” a fierce-looking middle-aged man said.”Otherwise, we won’t have a place in Ning An town.”

“Shopkeeper Chen, your family is a medicine shop. It’s reasonable to steal your family’s business. However, her medicine shop has stolen our clinic’s business. She’s really too presumptuous and arrogant.” An old man with a long beard and a medium build said angrily, “it’s just like you said. If this goes on, she will dominate the town.”

When the two of them spoke, the four of them echoed.

“Yes, that’s right. There hasn’t been anyone coming to my shop these days. They’re all waiting to go to Lin’s medicine shop to get free ingredients. If this continues, my family’s medicine shop will close down sooner or later. ”

“Yes, my family’s clinic used to have long lines to see the doctor. Now, there are only a few people who come to see the doctor every day. Those who are sick have to wait until Lin’s free clinic days. If this goes on, I’ll be out of business.” The doctor said angrily.

“That’s right, that’s right,” the others chimed in. “That little girl is so arrogant. How dare she snatch our business so blatantly? If we don’t teach her a lesson, this is bad for us.” These people were extremely angry.

If you wanted to sell medicinal herbs, then so be it. At most, everyone would compete fairly, but now, you were harming your competitors to benefit the poor. That was really too much.

“Say, why did that old man Lin Deshan let this kid manage the shop? What’s even more unbelievable is that the old man just gave away the business that he had been working on for decades. Has he been drugged?”

If it were them, they would not hand over their properties to their own grandson or granddaughter, let alone a step-granddaughter they had recognized.

Without wealth, if their grandchildren were unfilial in the future, they could only go out and beg.

This Lin Deshan had no family, so his wealth was even more coveted. However, he had given away his assets.

“Who knows,” someone chimed in. “I heard that the little girl is called a demon in the Lin family Village.”

Someone was immediately shocked. “A demon?! Why do you say that?”

That person said, “I have a relative in the Lin family Village. She told me that Lin Yuelan was declared to be a jinx by a Daoist three years ago. She was immediately chased out of the family and her blood-related bloodline was cut off. Because she was a jinx, everyone in the Lin family Village loathed and despised her.

“However, one day, she suddenly gained strength and intelligence. She became sharp-tongued and vicious, and she would take revenge on anyone who hated her. The most frightening thing was that she seemed to be able to command the big tiger to help her harm people, and now everyone in the Lin family Village is afraid of her.” This person said everything he knew.

The truth and lies here shocked the people around them.

Then, the oldest old man stroked his long white beard and half-lowered his eyes as if he was deep in thought. Then he said, “in this case, we should spread this truth. Once people know she’s a demon, would there still be people going there to see a doctor?”

When the other four heard the old man’s words, they immediately reacted and looked pleasantly surprised. They praised the old man, “shopkeeper Huang is indeed resourceful. If word gets out that she’s a demon, I don’t think anyone would have the guts to go to her shop to see patients and get medicine. ”

“That’s right. ”

“Shopkeeper Huang is indeed worthy of being called the smartest person in Ning An town.”
