Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 294 - 293

Chapter 294: Chapter 293

For Zhang Xiaoshan, that Gold and Silver Fruit was just a wild fruit he picked up at random, and given Zhang Xiaoshan’s average economic condition, he thought one hundred thousand for a single fruit was already very expensive.

But after all, the Lin family was a major household, and since it was used to save the life of the Lin family’s elderly chairman, they believed that one million per fruit was also very much worth the price.

That’s why Lin Yanran thought Zhang Xiaoshan was selling himself short.

Elder Li said.

"Miss, since Dr. Zhang has named this price, he must have his considerations. I think he wants to do you a favor. If you’re thinking of giving him more money, it would turn into pure business, and if that happens, our relationship with Dr. Zhang will only grow more distant."

Hearing Elder Li’s words, Lin Yanran’s pretty face grew even rosier.

"You, you mean he’s interested in me?"

Elder Li chuckled.

"Our miss is naturally beautiful and has an exceptional temperament. It’s normal for him to like you. I actually think this Dr. Zhang is quite a decent guy; maybe you should interact with him more."

"I have a premonition that although Dr. Zhang may not have the same status as you now, I am certain he is a dark horse who will have great prospects in the future."

"He’s a potential stock, worthy of investment."

"What are you talking about?"

Lin Yanran, rather discontented, said.

"I think love should be pure. If you like someone, you like them no matter what, regardless of what they’re like."

"Miss, you, you have feelings for him too?" Elder Li caught a hint of a young girl’s budding feelings in Lin Yanran’s words.

"You, Uncle, you’re talking nonsense. Let’s, let’s just focus on the matter at hand."

As she said this, Lin Yanran hurriedly turned and left.

Having her little secret poked at really made her feel shy.

Back in the office, Zhang Xiaoshan waited for a while, but still didn’t see them return, which made him somewhat anxious.

"Could it be because I’ve priced it too high, scaring them off?"

"That shouldn’t be the case, the Lin family is rich after all, half a million shouldn’t be too difficult for them, right?"

"Oh, if I had known, I would’ve just asked for four hundred thousand, enough to deal with the urgent needs."

Zhang Xiaoshan was in distress here.

Lin Yanran and Elder Li returned.

"Dr. Zhang, sorry to have kept you waiting," Elder Li said, taking the initiative to apologize to Zhang Xiaoshan.

Feeling uncertain, Zhang Xiaoshan said somewhat nervously.

"Actually, if you think the price is too high, we can discuss it further."

Lin Yanran immediately blurted out.

"No no no, five million is not at all expensive. How about I give you a little more?"

Lin Yanran looked guiltily concerned.

"How much?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was dumbstruck.

He looked at Lin Yanran uncertainly.

"What, what did you just say? Say it again, I didn’t hear you clearly."

Five million?

For Zhang Xiaoshan, this was definitely an astonishingly huge astronomic figure.

Five million, in Wanshan County, would certainly make one a major tycoon.

But he had meant five hundred thousand.

How did it turned into five million?

He wondered if he had heard wrong.

But at that moment, Lin Yanran said in a fluster.

"Are you dissatisfied with the price? Actually, I also think five million is too low, so how about I add another million, would that be okay?"

Elder Li, also worried that Zhang Xiaoshan might change his mind, quickly added,

"Right, Dr. Zhang, I know that the Gold and Silver Fruit is extremely rare, and the price is indeed hard to estimate. Five million is definitely not enough, but you must have heard about the Lin family’s standing in the pharmaceutical industry; price is definitely not an issue. Besides money, the Lin family will also owe you a favor."

"We will definitely repay your favor in the future. Let’s do this, name your price again, and we absolutely won’t bargain."

At this moment, Elder Li started to feel uneasy inside. Perhaps when Zhang Xiaoshan mentioned five million, it was just out of politeness and not because he wanted to sell a favor to Lin Yanran, could they have misunderstood?

Hearing the two of them, Zhang Xiaoshan finally became certain.

They were indeed talking about five million.

They must have misunderstood the meaning of his hand gesture earlier.

He had held up five fingers, and they thought he meant five million.

This, this wealth had suddenly increased tenfold.

He couldn’t help feeling amazed inside; the rich truly were different, even their units of counting money were different from ordinary folks like him.

But, who would complain about having too much money?

"No need to add more, just give me the five million you mentioned."

"These five Gold and Silver Fruits are yours."

"Also, I’ll give you a prescription as a bonus, which can brew the Gold and Silver Fruit into a thick soup for consumption, enhancing the effects."

"That’s great."

Overjoyed, Lin Yanran and Elder Li reacted to the good news.

...

Ten minutes later, Zhang Xiaoshan left Hundred Herbs Hall with a five-million-dollar check in his pocket.

"I’ve really struck it rich."

Five million, I actually have this much money now, I must count as a big boss around here now, right?

"Hahaha, who would’ve thought those five fruits would sell for so much. It seems I need to try my luck in the mountains more often."

After the excitement, Zhang Xiaoshan checked the time.

It was already five in the afternoon.

"Damn, I promised Mei that I would go to her in an hour, but I’ve been at Hundred Herbs Hall for three hours."

"But, why hasn’t she called me at all?"

At that moment, Zhang Xiaoshan became bewildered.

He took out his phone and first sent Luo Meili a WeChat video call, but no one answered. He then made a phone call to her.

...

Meanwhile, in a large warehouse at the north end of Qingshan Town, two people, a man and a woman, leading a group of hefty men, had a beautiful woman tied to a chair.

The woman was bound tightly and could not move at all.

It was the missing Luo Meili.
