Chapter 706

Author: Lorelei Thunder
Among the buyers, many were experienced medicinal ingredient merchants who knew the value of a hundred-year-old Reishi.

Nevertheless, all of them were intelligent. The first to offer a bid would be surpassed by the later bidders, and the other buyers could also guess the price they could afford. Hence, no one was willing to do something which had no benefit.

Jasmine was like a child who had no fear of the world, but more importantly, she had to get the Reishi. So, she was the first to shout, "One million!"

"Pft!" Some people next to her couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.

When Jasmine looked at the other people, they were all looking at her in disdain, as though they were making fun of her ignorance.

Although the Tuscans were in the medicinal industry, Jasmine was ignorant and had no interest in such things.

"What? Isn't that enough?" Glaring, Jasmine said in a huff, "Let's give it ten thousand dollars a year. 108 rings is one million and eighty thousand. If I round it up

    Abraham grinned from ear to ear. Despite having chubby cheeks, he was smiling so hard that there were wrinkles on his face."20 million!" Jasmine shouted feistily.All of a sudden, everyone was quiet and decided to stop. After all, 20 million was definitely an astronomical price.Abraham had estimated that he could count with one hand the number of people who would continue bidding after the price reached 15 million. Unexpectedly, Jasmine had suddenly shouted "20 million" out of nowhere.Now, all who had made fun of her a minute ago had nothing left to say. The Tuscans were truly wealthy!This was the effect Jasmine wanted. It was this easy to regain her dignity."Mr. Heinreich, top that bid! Didn't you say that you had to get the Reishi because it's going to be a gift for your mother? Another bid won't be a problem for you. Don't back out now!"The only person who was rich enough to top that amount contemplated for a long while. In the end, he shook his head and said, "I don'

    "It's the black card, and the highest level of it—the supreme anonymous black card!" Stunned, Abraham widened his eyes."What anonymous black card? I've never heard of it before." Jasmine scoffed. "Fatso, did you make a mistake?""Exactly. I've never heard of it too," Magdalena echoed, backing her daughter up."You've never heard of it because you're ignorant," Woody snapped with equal aggression.Before Magdalena and Jasmine could blow their tops, Abraham loudly interrupted, "I'm not mistaken. My brother-in-law is the president of Kingsvale Bank, and he specially showed me this type of black card."Unlike other bank cards made of plastic, it's made from titanium alloy through a complicated process. So, it's impossible to imitate it. The greatest feature of this card is the drawing limit of one billion!"What? Everyone widened their eyes, and the sounds of them taking deep breaths filled the air. It was rare to find a regular credit card which had a drawing limit of even a fe

    "Are you going to bid again?" Arrogance was written all over Jasmine's face. "I'll top your bid every time. Today, I must have the hundred-year-old Reishi."Magdalena felt the pinch horribly and she silently berated Jasmine. Obviously, Jasmine couldn't feel the pinch since it wasn't her money.However, Magdalena couldn't display her disgruntlement because there were so many people watching. She had to maintain her generosity and not embarrass the Tuscan family."Woody?" Penny wore a long face.It was 30 million! Even if she sold herself, she wasn't worth that much money."Forget it. Since she wants it so badly, let her have it then," Woody breezily said.Penny breathed a sigh of relief.Although they couldn't get the hundred-year-old Reishi and the production of the Restoration Pill was affected, this price-production ratio was too low. Even if they bought it, it would not benefit them.With such a high cost, the price of the end product would increase accordingly, and that w

    "Don't make baseless accusations in front of so many people, Ms. Tuscan!" With a stoic face, Abraham said in an aggressive tone, "I'm one of the important people in this wholesale market. "I've always provided genuine goods at a fair price, and my business is built on honesty. Many can verify this."Be my judge, everyone. Don't you feel your conscience tugging at you when you accuse an honest businessman in public? She's slandering me, everyone!"Jasmine—lacking social experience—turned pale from Abraham's retorts and lost all confidence and didn't know how to react."Damn you!" There was no way Magdalena would just watch in vain. She was the first to stand up for her daughter. "Who are you to claim to be an honest businessman?"Do you think that all the experts here are blind and will allow you to spout all that nonsense? Take a look, everyone. Is this even a bloody Reishi?"This isn't the promised good. It's something utterly different from the pictures!" Magdalena pointed at

    Magdalena was about to retort when a man next to her snorted. "So many businesses have had their reputations ruined by their women and illegitimate children!""Running a business without following the rules—you Tuscans sure have the nerve!"I wonder how Mr. Tuscan would feel about his wife and daughter destroying his reputation!""I used to think that the Sparkses and Schuberts were stubborn. They refused to let go of traditions that favored men over women. But now, it seems like they were wise! Women should not be allowed to interfere in business!""When a woman is in charge, the business will fall!"The entire group sided with Abraham."So, you're all just ganging up on us!" Jasmine tried to argue.Magdalena quickly grabbed her. She then shook her head and motioned Jasmine to be quiet. In truth, Magdalena was also upset. After all, 30 million was no small sum! Even if it was coming from her own savings, it was still money from her husband! She didn't know a thing about busines

    "Do you think he's stupid, Aunt Magdalena?" Penny glared at Magdalena. She retorted sarcastically, "A broken piece of bark for 30 million? Are you crazy?"Magdalena immediately glared back at Penny. Then, she turned to Woody with a smile on her face. "That's quite expensive, right? Let's make it cheaper, how about 20 million?"The only thing she was thinking about now was to minimize the loss. She knew 30 million couldn't be recovered, but something was still better than nothing."No way!" Woody rejected her offer without hesitation. Magdalena anxiously lowered the price again. "Ten million! Surely ten million is reasonable? That's 70% of the original price!""Do you really think it's worth ten million?" Woody retorted. "How much wood can you buy with ten million? It wouldn't be enough even if you loaded several trucks of it!"Besides, it's just a piece of rotten wood. It'll fall apart if a breeze blows on it. Why should I buy it? Just to watch it fall apart for fun?"Magdalena

    This didn't add up! This young man seemed pretty sharp—he had gotten himself out of a tricky situation with finesse!So, why was he asking for something so foolish now?"Are you really going to buy it?" Magdalena asked, her disappointment turning into joy.She couldn't believe it.Woody countered, "What? You don't want to sell it anymore?"Magdalena was so excited that she was afraid that Woody would backtrack. "Of course I'll sell it! You said one million, so no take-backs. Let's do the transaction immediately!"Penny quickly grabbed Woody's arm. "Woody, you can't do something so foolish! One million is not a small amount.""Penny, this has nothing to do with you. Mind your own business!" Magdalena quickly scolded.It wasn't easy to get a chance to make a profit, and she didn't want any complications to get between them.If Woody changed his mind because of Penny, Magdalena would slap her!"I've decided. I'm buying it," Woody said firmly.Magdalena quickly opened up her pho

    "What… is this?""Oh my god, how was there a small hundred-year-old Reishi in the bigger one?""The light is so dazzling! I've never seen anything like this before. I can tell it's no ordinary herb!"The crowd stared wide-eyed, their eyes fixed on the small hundred-year-old Reishi inside the box.Abraham seemed to realize something and exclaimed, "Could this be the legendary golden Reishi?When he said this, the audience was shocked."Mr. Schwarcz, what is the legendary golden Reishi?"Abraham kept staring into the box and muttered, "That's no mistake. It must be the legendary golden Reishi!"Legend has it that this herb is the essence of heaven and earth! It is only formed in the hundred-year-old Reishi."He continued, "Chances of it appearing is one in ten thousand. Even a hundred-year-old Reishi is extremely rare! Sometimes they don't appear for decades."One in ten thousand of one in ten thousand! No wonder it's only mentioned in ancient medical books, with almost no one ha

    Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the

    Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c

    He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m

    In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr

    Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a

    To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the

    Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance. At that moment, Edwin's

    Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try." Woody volunteered.
