Chapter 728 - 727 Keep Your Little Schemes to Yourself
As these words were spoken, Shopkeeper Wu’s face involuntarily twitched, and everyone’s eyes were on the pot.
When Wang Yongzhu threw the sealed cloth bag into it, and then the color of the water changed, they knew the biggest secret must reside within that cloth bag.
On the surface, everyone seemed indifferent, but in reality, they were all fixated on it.
No doubt some were even thinking of fishing out the cloth bag after Wang Yongzhu had left, to unfold and study it.
Thus, those with the same intention didn’t speak of it, hoping that Wang Yongzhu would forget about it.
But to their surprise, Yang the Mute actually blurted it out.
Wang Yongzhu dismissed it casually with a wave of her hand, "That cloth bag is useless now, it doesn’t matter whether it is fished out or not." Inside this cloth bag, even if everyone knew it was madder root powder, the alum would have dissolved upon contact with water—where would they go to find out?
Not to mention that even if they did know, the formula was achieved through her many trials and experiments; it wasn’t that easy to replicate.
Ninth Master Lee was startled for a moment, then swept a piercing gaze across the assembly and darkly ordered, "Fish out the cloth bag and let Lady Wang take it with her!"
His men did not dare to delay, rushing forward to retrieve it, and soon, they fished out the cloth bag.
