Chapter 45 : Meteorite Grass (1/2)
This meteor grass was meteorite grass.
Meteorite grass, as the name suggested, is a herb grown from the special component of a meteorite falling to earth and mixing with the soil.
This material was not a medicinal herb, however its value was very astonishing.Only direct descendants of real nobility would have the capital to purchase it.
In this era it was used as a medicine to cure bone injuries?
It was simply abusing heaven’s gift!
This was similar to getting hidden treasures like with the oil mine.
This was not Chu Tian’s luck, but rather this era’s stupidity!
Chu Tian said, “I want to make long-term purchase of large quantities of meteor grass, the first batch should be ten thousand!We’ll see after that.”
“Ten thousand?”Meng Qingwu was surprised.Although meteor grass was not a medicinal herb, it still costed several gold coins for one unit.“Do you want all of the meteor grass in South Sky City?”
“Meteorite grass isn’t used the way you think it’s used, it needs to be used in large quantities for it to display its true value.Ten thousand is too little, it’s only enough for a few people to use for a few days.To be honest, I plan on acquiring the whole basin.”
Acquiring the whole basin?
Although the meteor grass was not a medicinal herb, it was still a good healing drug.
The liquid medicine made from meteor grass sells very well and the demand for it is very high.The meteor grass basin was already controlled by a large family and to contract them would require a large sum of money.
Meng Qingwu, who could not bear it anymore, finally asked, “What use does the meteor grass actually have?Is it worth attaching such importance to it?”
Chu Tian did not reply, but looked her up and down.
Meng Qingwu felt his gaze and took a look at her own body.Her cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.Angrily she rebuked, “I’m asking you something!What are you looking at me for?!”
“Does young miss have any chronic injuries?”
“How did you know?Did Yingying tell you?”
“I can tell.”Chu Tian lightly smiled said, “Your innate meridians are injured, causing you to be sick from birth.It’s hard to endure every night and it’s worse when you use spirit energy, am I right?”
Chu Tian even knows this?
This brat could deduce so accurately!
Even my little sister doesn’t know about this!
When her mother was pregnant, she was once ambushed by her personal enemies and was injured.Two months later, Meng Qingwu was born, but Meng Qingwu’s innate meridians were damaged.Although it was not enough to cause her to be a disabled person, it still brought inconveniences.
Meng Qingwu could not fight whenever she wanted.Whenever she stimulated her meridians and used spirit energy, she felt pain like being gnawed by a hundred ants which was hard to endure.However this was a congenital deficiency, and therefore could not be cured by medicine.
Chu Tian said confidently, “There are many methods of treatment.Remoulding your physique with meteor grass is one of them.”
Really?
This congenital deficiency could be cured?
This deficiency had brought too much trouble and distress already.
For more than twenty years, she had already gotten used to it.She did not dare think that it could be cured.
Chu Tian was still grinning, “If you don’t believe me, then let’s make a bet.If I can cure you with the meteor grass, then you’ll kiss me.If I can’t do it, then you kiss me.Nobody owes anyone anything, what do you think?”
Meng Qingwu stared at him, “If you speak such nonsense again, I’ll really get angry!”
The young miss, her face was thin and she was fierce, one could not crack a joke with her.
Chu Tian quickly put on a laughing face, “Calm down, calm down, but we must buy the meteor grass.”
Meng Qingwu said worriedly, “To buy ten thousand, we need at least one hundred thousand gold coins.The company is on a tight budget right now and I’m afraid we won’t be able to spend that much.Yingying and I have no problems as long as there is enough for use for now.
“What are you afraid of?The restaurant should be open for business soon.”
“That may be, but….”
“Don’t worry about it.”Chu Tian had a lot of faith in the Miracle Restaurant, “I have a hunch that our first pot of gold will be in our hands soon.I don’t like to drag my feet.We need to obtain the ten thousand herbs as soon as possible.I have use for them soon.”
“Fine, you want ten thousand herbs, then I’ll get ten thousand herbs.After all you are the president.”
To get ten thousand was actually a big burden on the company, but she did not doubt Chu Tian’s words about money being sufficient, plus she could always borrow more money form Xiong Tianyan.
Lacking money!
Really lacking money!
It was imperative to begin the operations of the Miracle Restaurant soon.
The important brand of Miracle Commerce, the Miracle Restaurant’s grand opening was being paid close attention to.However the company heads were Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun, both of whom had caused a great uproar once in South Sky City.
One was the witch of destruction.
The other was the stupid silly girl.
These two were famous for their beauty, but they were not business capable people.Appointing them as the ones responsible for such an important part of the company, was that not asking for trouble?
As soon as the news was released, ridicule, questions, and all kinds of gossip spread throughout the city.
What snobs!
Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun held in their anger and clenched their teeth as they advanced forward.Let the people think of them as useless, but when the time came, they would not believe their eyes.
For the opening of the restaurant, both of them worked from day to night and spent all their time in the restaurant.Without resting, the two finished the planning, layout, and publicity.They assumed full responsibility for every matter.
Meng Qingwu also wanted her sister to get some experience, and therefore took the role of providing backup support.Any people they needed, any things they required, and provided money when needed.Only if there was a big mistake in decision making would she personally step in.
