Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 756
The vendor's indifferent attitude and Fade's bizarre move of buying a single herb for two million had attracted heaps of attention.
Many eyes landed on them, with clamor of opinions lavishing on them.
However, Fade paid no heed toward their opinions. Instead, he took out his wallet, ready to pay by card.
The ginseng in the stall was definitely not an ordinary one, but a very rare Fire Blaze ginseng. Ginseng was a great tonic, but it normally grew in shady areas, so it was inevitable that it'd carry some Yin energy with it.
However, this ginseng was different from the average ginseng. It grew up in a place full of sunlight. Therefore, there was no cold energy in it. Naturally, the nourishing effect was ten times higher than that of the average ginseng.
This kind of Fire Blaze ginseng was exceptionally rare due to the limitation of its growing environment. And it was the best thing to treat Quin's Ice Lotus illness or as a tonic for Jeremy.
Therefore, when Fade heard that it cost only two million yuan, he was ready to pay for it without a second thought. After all, this kind of rare gem was hard to come by. Not to mention two million yuan, even if it was twenty million yuan, it was still worth it. If he hadn't come across it by luck today, he'd not be able to get one even if he had the money.
Thus, Fade ignored the teases and ridicule from the crowd and was set on purchasing it.
Just as Fade was about to pay the bill, a figure suddenly came forward and said, "Wait a minute, I'd like to take a look at this herb."
Hearing this, the vendor and Fade turned to look at the newcomer.
The man was about 28 years old. He was wearing an ancient long robe with a hair bun. He looked like an elegant young man from the ancient times. In addition, the man was attractive, his skin was fair, one could not help but to relate him to the famous Chinese term, "a young man as beautiful as jade".
All at once, all the young ladies around eyed him with interest. They looked at him longingly in a daze.
Even Cherry was looking unconsciously at the eyecatching, elegant young man.
Such a situation made Hugo, who was right next to Cherry, on tiptoe. He thought to himself, "I've just gotten rid of Fade Chen, here comes another gigolo. This is really annoying!"
Just as everyone was marveling at the handsome young man, the center of attention was looking at the Fire Blaze ginseng in great detail. A hint of astonishment flashed across his eyes. He reached out to pick up the ginseng as he asked, "How much is this herb? I want it."
The vendor was still as indifferent as before and said, "Two million yuan!"
After listening to this price, the elegant young man with a smooth face didn't hesitate at all. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take it."
As he spoke, he made a gesture with his hand. Behind him, there was a follower who seemed like a servant, immediately stepping forward to pay the bill.
This made Fade frown. He said coolly, "Wait a minute, I had my eyes on this herb before you and I was in the midst of paying the bill."
Having heard this, the elegant young man turned to look at Fade thorough once- over. Then, a strange light flashed across his eyes as he said firmly, "I'm buying this!"
As he said so, there was a deliberate emphasis in his tone along with an air of confidence as if the herb was destined to be his.
Fade hated such self-righteous people the most. He pulled a long face, he did not intend to argue with him anymore. He looked directly at the vendor and handed over his bank card. He said, "Here's the money. I'll take the herb."
Seeing that the stall owner was about to take the money from Fade, the elegant young man panicked and shot Fade a glare of displeasure. Then, he turned to the stall owner and said, "How much money did he pay? I'll pay more."
The vendor's cold expression changed slightly for the first time. He said, "He paid me two million yuan."
Hearing this, the elegant young man revealed a confident smile and said, "I'll pay two million two hundred thousand yuan, sell it to me."
Hearing this, the vendor rolled his eyes but remained silent. Instead, he turned to look at Fade. Clearly, he wanted Fade to bid.
Although Fade disliked the stall owner's sudden change of attitude, Fade was willing to purchase the Fire Blaze ginseng at a higher price, since it was not easy to come by.
As such, Fade said directly, "Two million five hundred thousand yuan!"
As soon as the bid was made, the elegant young man was shocked, he looked at Fade in surprise.
It seemed that he didn't expect this ordinary-dressed guy to be able to afford such a massive sum and to compete with him at that.
After a brief moment of hesitation, the elegant young man raised the price. "Two million eight hundred thousand yuan!"
Fade's face remained unchanged and he immediately raised the bid. "Three million!"
All the onlookers were dumbfounded by the scene of the fierce and incredible bidding between the two men. They watched in total disbelief and once again started discussing fervently among themselves. "The herb only costs one hundred thousand yuan. But they are willing to buy it at three million, and the price is still on the rise, are they crazy?"
"Do we have so many wealthy people nowadays?"
"Is there really something extraordinary about that herb?"
"However, it just looks like any other ginseng to me!"
Amidst all the wild guesses and heated discussions of the crowd, Cherry and the gang were also thunderstruck.
Cherry's parents didn't expect that someone would be willing to pay such a high price for an unremarkable item. Moreover, there was a fierce bidding going on at this moment.
Hugo was even startled by what he witnessed. He frowned and said, "Fade must have invited this guy as an accomplice for his scam!"
After all, in Hugo's eyes, Fade and that pretty boy were good-for-nothings. So, he naturally thought that they were up to no good. When Cherry heard this, she couldn't help frowning and said, "Stop thinking that everyone is as horrible as you! You're absurd!" Hugo's face distorted. He tried to think of something to defend himself.
Right at this instance, his attention was attracted by the bidding between Fade and the elegant young man that had intensified. The elegant young man said, "I offer four million and eight hundred thousand yuan!"
After that, he stared at Fade with a fiery gaze. In his opinion, although this herb was valuable, it was not worth buying if it goes five million.
Hence, he was gazing at Fade at this moment to convey a hint of threat to him. On the other hand, he wanted Fade to think wisely before he acted, so that he would not behave rashly.
But he had obviously underestimated Fade's capability.
When he heard the offer, Fade raised the bid again without hesitating. "Five million!"
Having heard this figure, not only the onlookers were aghast, but the elegant young man was also taken aback. He gritted his teeth and glared furiously at Fade, "Why must you go against me? Do you know who I am?"
Fade glanced at him indifferently and said in an icy tone, "I don't care who you are. I'm only aware of the fact that if you want to buy something, you must be able to pay. If you can't afford it, get out of here."
"You!" The elegant young man had never been humiliated by anyone on the basis of money. He was so furious at what Fade had said, his whole body trembled uncontrollably. He shot a hateful look at Fade and gnashed his teeth. "I offer five million five hundred thousand yuan."
