“Vice Head Jiang, I don’t agree with your words.” Chi Jiao smiled and looked at him indifferently. “It’s true that young ladies like flowers and plants, but trampling on them is not in a young lady’s nature.”
Jiang Shen’s face turned red from embarrassment.
However, before he could say anything, Jiang Xiaoli spoke up first in a sharp tone. “Chi Jiao, I already said I’m willing to pay you back. Why are you being so aggressive?”
Chi Jiao sensed that something was wrong with Quan Jue’s aura. She knew that his already bad temper might not be able to hold it in any longer. So, she held his hand instead and motioned for him to keep quiet.
“Pardon my bluntness, Miss Jiang, but I don’t think you can afford it.” Chi Jiao smiled at her.
Jiang Xiaoli was stunned for a moment before she smiled back. “If you don’t try to viciously extort me, I’ll definitely be able to afford it.”
“Jiaojiao is right. You really might not be able to afford it,” Liu Ruhua couldn’t help but say. She looked at Jiang Xiaoli with displeasure. “Hong Zai’s value is beyond your imagination. Its treatment value is very high. Currently, there’s no Chinese medicine on the market that can treat cardiovascular diseases in old people. The effects of Hong Zai’s seed, flower trail, and flower petals can all be used as medicine. The price of a single seed is already ten million, but the flower’s survival rate is very low. Jiaojiao spent three years to even grow a single flower. Its value will definitely increase by several times.”
When Jiang Xiaoli heard what she said, her chopsticks slipped from her hand and dropped onto the table.
Jiang Shen was also dumbfounded.
That medicinal flower was not even cultivated by Old Ou. How could it be so expensive?
They were kidding, right?
“Since you’re my grandpa’s acquaintances, I’ll give you a discount. 30 million,” said Chi Jiao with a harmless and pure smile on her face.
30 million?!
Jiang Xiaoli’s scalp felt like it was about to explode. She turned to look at Chi Jiao and blurted out what was in her heart, “30 million? Why don’t you go rob a bank instead! That medicinal flower was not even cultivated by Old Master Ou. If it was Old Master Ou’s efforts, I, Jiang Xiaoli, would think of a way to gather 50 million, much less 30 million.”

She didn’t believe that Chi Jiao could nurture such an awesome product.
She was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. Who did she think she was? The genius, Mystery J?

Other than Ou Zhenglin, Jiang Xiaoli was only convinced by the Mystery J from 007 Pharmaceutical Laboratory.
She thought her words would please Ou Zhenglin. After all, she still had the intention to please him.

Unexpectedly, Ou Zhenglin sneered in return. “Miss Jiang, since you don’t know anything about Chinese medicine, don’t speak nonsense. Jiaojiao is right. The price has already been lowered. If you don’t know how to be grateful, then we’ll sell it at the market price of 50 million.”
Even Ou Zhenglin said the same thing. Jiang Xiaoli was instantly speechless.
It was not because she was convinced by Chi Jiao, but because Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua obviously wanted to protect Chi Jiao. It was useless no matter what she said.
She could only look at Jiang Shen for help.
30 million was no joke.
Since she couldn’t afford it, she could only ask the Jiang family to pay for her.
Jiang Shen met her pleading gaze and could only look at Chi Jiao. “Miss Chi Jiao, I know that Xiaoli shouldn’t have ruined your efforts. But it was unintentional on her part. However, we have never heard of your medicinal flower on the market before. You see…”
