Chapter 346 Pure Nonsense
The Understated Dragon Lord
"Aiden, donât you think youâre being a bit unfair to me here? I haven't even gotten any deals yet, and
you want a billion dollars out of me?"
Daniel pointed at the Blood Ganoderma and said, "This thing is indeed Ganoderma, but itâs just a
regular Ganoderma, not a Blood Ganoderma. Itâs worth at most ten thousand dollars. Asking me for
a billion? Thatâs inflating the price by a hundred thousand times. Are you serious?"
"Nonsense! How could this be just ordinary Ganoderma? This is Blood Ganoderma!"
Of course, Aiden wasnât about to admit she had crafted a fake! The red color on the Ganoderma
was achieved using some technical tricks, but the Ganoderma itself was definitely high-quality. Just
the cost of the Ganoderma had set her back half a million. As for the fake touches, those were her
own handiwork. The blood-red hues were made using ground rose petals, mixed with some peony
and other flowers.
Daniel leaned in and sniffed the Blood Ganoderma. After a moment, he nodded as if understanding
something.
"I know what fragrance I smelled earlier! It wasnât from your perfume Aiden, but from this so-called
Blood Ganoderma. If Iâm not mistaken, you've used rose petals and peony petals, ground them into
powder, and placed them on the Ganoderma to create this Blood Ganoderma, right?"
"Ridiculous! I did no such thing!"
Even though Daniel had figured it out, Aiden absolutely refused to confess. If she admitted that the
Blood Ganoderma had only cost her half a million to make, then at most, she could sell it for a
million. But if she didnât admit it, even if she couldnât sell it for a billion, even twenty or thirty million
would be pretty good. Ordinary herbs could only earn ordinary profits, but dressing them up as
spiritual medicine could increase the margin by a hundredfold!
"No?" Daniel looked straight at the fibbing young woman and with a chuckle said, "Oh, but you did!"
"You're slandering me. Do you have proof?!"
"Slander? But I really do have proof! How about this; if I can prove this isnât Blood Ganoderma, you
sell it to me for ten thousand dollars. If I fail to prove it, I'll buy it from you for one billion."
Daniel set the terms.
Aiden didnât rush to agree but asked with interest, "How do you intend to prove it?"
"The blood-red color of Blood Ganoderma is inherent, permeating its entirety. So, proving whether
it's true Blood Ganoderma is simple. Just cut it in half and see if the inside is blood-red or not."
With Danielâs proposition, Aiden instantly panicked. While faking it to avoid affecting the quality, she
hadnât used any chemicals. The rose petal powder was all on the surface. If the Ganoderma were
cut open, the inside would definitely not be red!
"My Herbal Loon is a medicine store, not a casino; Iâm not betting with you. However, if youâre up for
a gamble, I could indulge you."
Aiden gestured towards a pile of discarded herbs in the corner and said leisurely, "All these herbs
here are top-grade, each worth ten thousand."
