Chapter 346 Pure Nonsense

"Aiden, don’t you think you’re being a bit unfair to me here? I haven't even gotten any deals yet, andyou want a billion dollars out of me?"

Daniel pointed at the Blood Ganoderma and said, "This thing is indeed Ganoderma, but it’s just aregular Ganoderma, not a Blood Ganoderma. It’s worth at most ten thousand dollars. Asking me fora billion? That’s 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 wasn’t about to admit she had crafted a fake! The red color on the Ganodermawas achieved using some technical tricks, but the Ganoderma itself was definitely high-quality. Justthe cost of the Ganoderma had set her back half a million. As for the fake touches, those were herown handiwork. The blood-red hues were made using ground rose petals, mixed with some peonyand other flowers.

Daniel leaned in and sniffed the Blood Ganoderma. After a moment, he nodded as if understandingsomething.

"I know what fragrance I smelled earlier! It wasn’t from your perfume Aiden, but from this so-calledBlood Ganoderma. If I’m not mistaken, you've used rose petals and peony petals, ground them intopowder, 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 theBlood Ganoderma had only cost her half a million to make, then at most, she could sell it for amillion. But if she didn’t admit it, even if she couldn’t sell it for a billion, even twenty or thirty millionwould be pretty good. Ordinary herbs could only earn ordinary profits, but dressing them up asspiritual 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 isn’t Blood Ganoderma, yousell 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 didn’t 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 whetherit's true Blood Ganoderma is simple. Just cut it in half and see if the inside is blood-red or not."

With Daniel’s proposition, Aiden instantly panicked. While faking it to avoid affecting the quality, shehadn’t used any chemicals. The rose petal powder was all on the surface. If the Ganoderma werecut open, the inside would definitely not be red!

"My Herbal Loon is a medicine store, not a casino; I’m not betting with you. However, if you’re up fora gamble, I could indulge you."

Aiden gestured towards a pile of discarded herbs in the corner and said leisurely, "All these herbshere are top-grade, each worth ten thousand."
