I Am A Prodigy

‘This…’A lot of them had a helpless expression on their faces. ‘These rich people are nuts. They won’t even care about the feelings of small companies like us, getting eliminated by them right from the start!’

They had their mouths agape, but no words came forth.

They wanted to fight for it too, but without money, they were unable to fight!

“Hehe, our Tang National Pharmaceutics will play along too,” one of the old men finally broke his silence. “We’ll offer 30 thousand!”

With that, the price went up by another five thousand!

“Old Man Tang, your Tang National Pharmaceutics had never initiated any development of new medicine. Why are you taking part this time?” asked a respectable-looking middle-aged man. Following that, he raised his sign and announced., “United Heaven Pharmaceutics offers 31 thousand.”

“Hahaha, apart from making western medicine, this giant python can be sun-dried and used directly as Chinese medicine! Why can’t I buy it?” Old Man Tang laughed. “You’re such a cheapskate bidding like that. 35 thousand!”

“We’re not as well off as your Tang National Pharmaceutics.” The middle-aged man adjusted his glasses but stopped competing.

“38 thousand!” The bidder this time was still from Huihong Pharmaceutics.

Old Man Tang frowned lightly. “40 thousand!”

It was obvious that the price had reached an exorbitant amount. Even the large scale pharmaceutical companies were hesitating, unsure if they should continue bidding.

[F*ck! 40 thousand for 500 grams! Are these pharmaceutical companies crazy?]

[Previous post, don’t you know how much profit they pharmaceutical companies make? It may be calculated in units of 500 grams now, but when they turn it into medicine, then it’s counted in grams!]

[40 thousand for 500 grams. That giant python should be at least one full tonne right? That’s going to be 40 million!]

[What’s 40 million? Didn’t you see how God Ye was unfazed when faced with 200 million?]

…

Huihong Pharmaceutics was fine with the results as they had obtained the gallbladder. At least they would not return empty-handed. Other pharmaceutical companies were however unable to sit still any longer.

“God Ye, with so many corporations here, you can’t just let us go back empty-handed.”

“That’s right, God Ye. Please give us small businesses a chance. I’m begging you.”

“God Ye, we came here with full sincerity. Can you not sell the giant python as a whole unit?”

The representatives of all those companies looked at Ye Lingchen with their puppy eyes.

They were really out of options. With the larger companies around, they could not get anything.

“Everyone, I’m not sure if you’re willing to listen to my humble suggestion.” Right then, Dong Miaomiao had finally spoken up.

She was the youngest one there, yet she showed no hint of fear, calmly speaking, “There’s only one giant python. It would only destroy our harmony if we continue fighting like this. However, we can’t let God Ye suffer losses too. I think we should split it into multiple portions and set the price to 50 thousand. What do you guys think?”

Her eyes glimmered as her words calmed everyone down.

50 thousand for 500 grams. It may appear more expensive than 50 thousand per 500 gram, but in actuality, it was not the same.

First of all, at 50 thousand per 500 grams, it did not require them to purchase the entire giant python. If one only purchased 500 grams worth, then it would only cost 50 thousand. That sum was nothing for these companies. In fact, they were not worried about the high unit price, but rather the difficulty of taking out tens of millions at one go.

Secondly, the auction had not ended. Nobody could guarantee the final price not to go over 50 thousand!

Moreover, 50 thousand per 500 grams would not offend Ye Lingchen as the price was considered quite high.

One must admit that Dong Miaomiao had thought of everything perfectly. She did not make the suggestion at the beginning of the auction. That way she would only seem to be a busybody. Nevertheless, now that she brought it up when the auction was in a standstill, it achieved optimal effects.

Most importantly, she would never have gotten anything with the original auction. However, with her suggestion, her company would naturally be able to obtain a portion of the giant python meat.

“I think this suggestion is excellent!”

Before anyone could voice out, Ye Lingchen agreed to it immediately. “The earlier bid reached 40 thousand right? I don’t need 50 thousand. Let’s settle it at 40 thousand. As for the 10 thousand difference, I hope that everyone would lower the price accordingly to reduce the burden on the patients as part of my contribution.”

“This giant python is denser than regular snakes, weighing at 800kg. We’ll limit it to 50kg per person.”

[God Ye is the best! We love God Ye!]

[Wah wah wah! God Ye is so handsome. I hope these pharmaceutical companies can produce cheaper medicine!]

[Husband, I love you!]

[Tch, braggart! If you’re so great then just give it away. Faker!]

[Previous post, evaluation complete. Your brain was squashed by the door.]

[I’ve finally seen it for myself. Such greedy people really exist in our world! Disgusting!]

[That giant python was hunted down by God Ye after risking his life. You’re just a yapper. What gives you the right to criticize God Ye?]

[Here comes the emotional blackmails. What a display of their lack of intelligence!]

…

Finally, the giant python was sold off at the price of 40 thousand per 500 grams. What surprised Ye Lingchen the most was that Dong Miaomiao managed to fork out four million for 50kg. However, it was obvious that she placed quite a heavy bet on this.

“God Ye, you’re a person that I respect greatly,” Dong Miaomiao sincerely praised Ye Lingchen after purchasing the snake meat.

There was another advantage of splitting the giant python meat up for sale. It was to avoid one company monopolizing it and driving the price sky-high.

Dong Miaomiao and Ye Lingchen both understood that point. That was why he did not hesitate and agreed to Dong Miaomiao’s suggestion right away.

Ye Lingchen rubbed his nose. ‘Did I just got myself categorized as the nice guy?’

After obtaining the snake meat, everyone departed happily and rushed off impatiently for their research. Moreover, the snake meat also needed to be stored in a proper environment as soon as possible.

The entire giant python and its gallbladder were sold for a total sum of 69 million!

Although it was not as crazy as the price Young Master Wei offered, it was still a sum that would turn many eyes.

“Wow, you’ve made a killing!”

Zhao Liangying was grinning so much her eyes were almost shut, as though she was the one that made all that money.

“God Ye, your net worth just shot up in an instant. I’ve been working hard for half my life, yet it’s nothing compared to one giant python that you captured. Marvelous,” Huang Lei lamented.

On the other hand, Wei Daxun remembered the meal they had for lunch. “500 grams of meat is worth 40 thousand. We cooked almost 1.5kg of snake meat during lunch! OMG, this is the peak of my life. I can brag about this for the rest of my life!”

At night, they had the anaconda for dinner with Ye Lingchen doing the cooking again.

Braised snake, roasted snake, and deep-fried snake meet. It was a snake full course meal.

However, they were not feeling too good because after that night, Ye Lingchen, Zhao Liangying, and Hu Yue’er would be there for three full days. They would be leaving the Mushroom Hut the next day.

After three days of living together as a family, it was natural for them to feel saddened during the farewell.

The sadness of parting ways hung around in the air. It was only until they tasted Ye Lingchen’s delicacies that the sadness was toned down…
