"Okay! I'm counting on you then!" said Chu Mo.
"The young master sure knows how to flatter small folks like me," Zhao Er said, sticking out his huge belly as if to bow to Chu Mo. However, no matter how you looked at it, it seemed too round.
Subsequently, Chu Mo didn't stay there for too long. He declined Zhao Er's offer of hospitality and found an inn to stay for the night.
On one hand, Chu Mo didn't know Zhao Er very well and didn't want to intrude. He also wanted to keep his options open. After all, one should not trust others fully! Zhao Er might be Wang Dafa's right-hand man, but he was not Chu Mo's.
On the other hand, Chu Mo had another purpose for coming to Great Qi — medicinal herbs!
The rarest herbs of the whole Great Xia, were virtually swept clean by Xia Jing, even many of the herbs in Great Qi were purchased by Xia Jing at very high prices.
As a result, finding those precious herbs on the market was almost impossible. So, Chu Mo turned his attention towards Great Qi.
