Chapter 519: Chapter 518: Just Kidding

"Zhang Xiaoshan, I thought we were friends, and here you are trying to extort me?"

Lin Yanran exploded with rage, rushing to tear Zhang Xiaoshan into pieces.

Elder Li hurried to hold Lin Yanran back.

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled and said.

"Miss Lin, friends are friends, but business is business. With such a big deal on the table, you really shouldn’t mess around. If you want to get physical, then I’m leaving."

With that, Zhang Xiaoshan made as if to leave.

Elder Li quickly blocked Zhang Xiaoshan’s way.

"Hehehe, Dr. Zhang, our young lady here has a bit of a temper, you’ll have to forgive her. She’s only like this because she’s close to you, don’t take it to heart, okay?"

Lin Yanran also spoke to Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Fine, fine, if you’re not going to honor our friendship, then let’s not talk about it. Let’s keep it strictly business."

"I’ve almost met your first condition, just missing one herb, and now with the Red Sun Grass in hand, I can rightfully use my family’s connections, and it won’t be long before I find it; it’s not difficult. Moreover, it’s something I promised you I’d do long ago, even without the Red Sun Grass, I would have kept my word and helped you."

"But your second condition, demanding one billion in cash, that’s just outrageous. I can’t do that."

"Taking a billion from the company would cause an economic crisis."

"My grandfather would never agree to spend a billion to get the Red Sun Grass."

Elder Li chimed in from the side.

"Dr. Zhang, this Red Sun Grass may be rare, but it has such a limited use and no real market. Besides us, who are you going to sell it to? So a billion is truly too expensive."

Lin Yanran looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with teary eyes and said.

"I really thought of you as a friend, but you’re using my grandfather’s life to threaten me, taking advantage while we’re down, I’m so disappointed in you."

"Ha."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the angry Lin Yanran and laughed.

"Alright, Elder Li made some fair points just now, but you’re forgetting something, life has its price. This thing saves your grandfather’s life, and surely the old chairman of the Lin family’s life is worth more than the average person’s, right?"

"Besides, I almost lost my life trying to find this Red Sun Grass. Was that easy for me?"

"Alright, alright, for the sake of Miss Lin being pretty, I’ll step back and give you a fifty percent discount, how about fifty million?"

"What?"

Lin Yanran and Elder Li were suddenly stunned.

Fifty million?

That’s half off?

Isn’t this concession a bit too big?

"Hahaha, look at you, crying so ugly, like a big tabby cat, even your nose is running, just like a child."

Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled uncontrollably at Lin Yanran’s embarrassing expression.

In an instant, Lin Yanran and Elder Li understood.

Zhang Xiaoshan’s demand for a billion was just an outrageous initial offer, teasing Lin Yanran.

What ’half-off’ concession – Zhang Xiaoshan had planned to ask for fifty million all along.

"You, Zhang Xiaoshan, you deliberately made me look foolish, I’m going to fight you."

Lin Yanran, with her claws out, charged at Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Ouch."

She twisted Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm fiercely, causing him to grimace in pain.

"You, are you made of crab or something? Gentle, be gentle."

"I was just joking with you, didn’t you just say we’re friends? Are you always this petty with your friends?"

"I don’t need a bad friend like you bullying me."

Lin Yanran pinched Zhang Xiaoshan hard before she walked away.

"I’m trying to help you save your grandfather, and here you are trying to kill me. I guess we can’t do business then."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the blue mark on his arm and couldn’t help but complain.

"Hmph, you have to, otherwise I’ll cut ties with you."

Lin Yanran said triumphantly.

Watching the harmonious scene, Elder Li quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dr. Zhang, you scared me to death. I really thought you were going to take this chance to swindle us."

"You all underestimate me. I, Zhang Xiaoshan, am not that unethical. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way. I think the value of this Red Sun Grass is about fifty million, what do you think?"

Lin Yanran glanced toward Elder Li.

Elder Li pondered for a moment before speaking.

"For Red Sun Grass, fifty million isn’t too expensive. But, to tell you the truth, based on what I know of our old master, he definitely won’t be willing to spend that money."

"How about you give a bit more discount?"

He asked tentatively.

Lin Yanran also pouted, her eyes tearfully looking at Zhang Xiaoshan.

Zhang Xiaoshan was somewhat overwhelmed by Lin Yanran’s fragile appearance.

"Don’t, don’t do this to me. To be honest, I’m really short on cash. I need to buy the Hui Nong Pharmaceutical Factory in the county. The factory is going for thirty-eight million, plus I need to take care of the workers, and restart the medicine factory. I really can’t go lower than fifty million."

"What, you want to buy the Hui Nong Medicine Factory?"

Lin Yanran was shocked.

"Are you sick or something? If you have too much money and can’t spend it all, give it to me, I’ll spend it for you. Why would you throw it away like that?"
