The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 345

"This Blood Ganoderma is top-notch. It’s not just any herb; it's a spiritual medicine of the highest quality!"

Aiden’s spiel left Brittany puzzled.

"What's a spiritual medicine?"

"Spiritual medicines grow in lands rich with spiritual energy, where they're nurtured until they mature. Their medicinal value is thousands, even tens of thousands of times greater than ordinary herbs and can be used to craft elixirs. Every single spiritual medicine is exceedingly rare and worth a fortune!"

Aiden was quite the storyteller, aiming to fetch a steep price. Daniel knew her game and asked with a grin, "So Aiden, how much for this Blood Ganoderma?"

"This Blood Ganoderma is priceless. A big-time boss offered ten billion for it, and I turned him down. However, I feel a special connection with you, Daniel. From the first glance, I liked you—you're like a brother to me. So, I'll give you a sibling discount, just one billion."

"Aiden, you really know how to do business! Seeing that my balance is one billion, you charge me one billion! If it were ten billion, would you ask for that?"

"Daniel, you're accusing me unfairly. This is really the family price; it’s the lowest I can go. Wherever you take this Blood Ganoderma, you could sell it for at least ten billion. I'm only asking you for one billion. That's a steal."

"Just one billion?" Daniel scratched his head, "One billion is a bit steep for the daytime. At night, when it's quiet... well, that's another story. Don’t talk about one billion; even ten billion could be on the table."

Aiden was puzzled by Daniel's cryptic words, but Brittany, a clever woman with loads of theoretical knowledge, immediately got his drift. That darn country boy was up to his cheeky antics again!

"What are you saying, country boy?"

"I'm not saying anything! I'm just discussing the price with Aiden."

"Discussing price? Don’t think I can’t tell what those words you just said really mean, you rascal."

"What do they mean? Heh heh!" Daniel smirked slyly. "Those words? They mean exactly what they say."

Aiden, who had plenty of movie knowledge even without practical experience, realized the implication behind Daniel’s words. Instead of being offended, she responded in a flirty tone, "Daniel, you're being naughty, aren't you?"

Her reaction shocked Brittany.

"Dear, how can you smile after he made that kind of joke with you? Don’t you realize he’s sexually harassing you? That's against the law! You should call the police right now and have him arrested!"

"Yes! He should be arrested!" agreed Aiden. She turned to Daniel with a playful smile. "Daniel, your beautiful colleague has spoken. If you don't buy this Blood Ganoderma, I might just have to call the cops, you know?"
