Chapter 100 Presentation

Jian Ning opened the Fengqi Live Streaming App, sorted out the orders for the vegetable blind boxes, and handed them over to the soybean character for processing.

She remembered the demon core in the Qiankun Ring, which was an indispensable ingredient for refining the Spirit Gathering Pill.

Besides that, she is still missing a few ingredients to refine the Spirit Gathering Pill.

Jian Ning scattered the soybeans in her hand and instructed the little soybean man to pick them.

By evening, the fresh Spirit Gathering Pills were ready.

She looked at the bright green Spirit Gathering Pill, which appeared smaller than described in the book, perhaps because of the different sizes of demon cores.

It looks just like a candy bean.

She took eight pills in one go, and her spiritual energy was noticeably more abundant.

This Spirit Gathering Pill is like a daily health supplement for cultivators; it can improve cultivation, but not by much.

As long as you don't overdo it, eating it every day is good for your physical and mental health, so you can keep some on hand.

Jian Ning used magic to scatter beans into soldiers, sending the shrunken, almost invisible soybean figures outside the manor to search for traces of the giant green caterpillar.

Since refining Spirit Gathering Pills is effective, why not raise the giant green caterpillar in the manor? Wouldn't that allow us to produce our own demon cores?

Jian Ning thought about it more and more and felt that this method was feasible.

If any other demonic beasts with demonic cores are found in the future, they can be raised.

Just then, Jian Ning's cell phone rang.

She took out her phone and saw that it was Fu Sheng calling.

She answered the call and said "Hello" with a slightly puzzled tone.

But Wenli's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Ningning, it's me,"

Jian Ning's lips unconsciously curled upwards as she asked, "Lily, how are you now?"

“I’m doing well here, and Atao came to keep me company. It’s just that I can’t contact people outside freely for the time being, so I haven’t been able to contact you for a long time,” Wenli explained. “I saw Fu Sheng today and borrowed his phone to contact you. Ningning, how have you been lately?”

“I’m fine too, don’t worry,” Jian Ning said.

Wenli responded and took the initiative to talk about her situation, "I soak my feet in the foot bath medicine pack you gave me every day, and recently I can stand in place for five minutes without crutches. The next step is rehabilitation, and the doctor said that walking will not be a problem in the future."

Jian Ning was even happier to hear this.

"Lily, I wish you a speedy recovery."

Wenli: "Okay, I'll come see you before I go back once I'm fully recovered."

“Okay,” Jian Ning agreed.

Wenli said, "Ningning, I won't say much more. Fu Shenggang said he also needs to talk to you. I'll give the phone back to him, and you two can chat."

"it is good."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, followed by footsteps, and then Fu Sheng's voice came through.

"Ms. Jian, do you have a moment now to talk about Wenli's situation?"

Jian Ning said calmly, "Yes, go ahead."

Fu Sheng said, "Wenli's condition is not good. She has been relying on medication to manage her cancer. Now chemotherapy is almost useless for Wenli, and she probably won't last much longer."

Jian Ning's heart sank.

Lily had only told her that her leg was almost healed, without mentioning the details of her physical treatment, which she had already anticipated.

However, Fu Sheng probably told her all this not just to tell her about Wenli's physical condition.

Jian Ning: "Why don't you just say what you want to say?"

“Alright, Su Shijian’s experiments at Huayue Manor have shown that the herbs grown there are unique. The higher-ups have taken notice of this and are discussing with me today whether they can persuade you to sell the manor,” Fu Sheng said directly.

Jian Ning was also very direct: "I won't sell."

Fu Sheng: "The price is negotiable. Moreover, our experts have also studied the foot bath medicine packs you gave to Wenli. Their efficacy is outstanding, even more astonishing than Su Shijian's experimental data."

Wenli's leg was incurable, but the medicine packet brought about a turning point.

Jian Ning, the medicinal herbs in the manor might save Wenli's life. If these herbs could be replicated, they could save countless lives.

Jian Ning said with certainty, "Your idea is impossible." She knew very well that the manor was probably a natural spiritual eye, but the spiritual energy was extremely thin.

This is clearly shown in Su Shijian's experimental data. The medicinal effects of the mountain villa are only slightly better than those of artificially cultivated medicinal herbs. Compared with medicinal herbs from natural mountains, the medicinal effects are almost identical.

The foot bath medicine packet she gave Wenli was so effective because the herbs contained her wood spirit root, a solid spiritual energy gathering array, and the power of magic.

In addition, she roasted the medicinal herbs using fire-manipulation techniques.

If she sells Huayue Villa to the government and moves away, everything here will be pretty much the same as before.

To put it bluntly, even if she were willing to sell, it wouldn't be of much use to the higher-ups holding onto the manor.

She could easily move to another place to continue her manor dream.

Jian Ning simply didn't want them to waste their time on this.

In addition, she did indeed feel a sense of belonging to Huayue Villa.

Fu Sheng asked again, "Are you really not considering selling the villa?"

Jian Ning replied firmly, "Yes."

"Okay, I'll report your reply. If you change your mind, feel free to contact me anytime."

Fu Sheng ultimately did not completely rule out the possibility of a definitive conclusion.

Jian Ning hung up the phone.

Not long after, Jian Ning received another call from someone claiming to be the general manager of a certain company, asking her about selling the villa.

Jian Ning remembered that this company was a foreign-invested enterprise.

She didn't want to talk to them at all, hung up the phone, and blocked them.

Su Shijian was a spy, and the affairs of the manor were leaked.

Fortunately, the previous data wasn't particularly alarming, so even if the other party didn't get the manor and lost Su Shijian, they wouldn't blatantly try to steal it again.

That evening, Xiao Li sent her a WeChat message asking what time would be convenient for him to go to the new vegetable variety exhibition and promotion meeting the next day.

Jian Ning replied, "Nine o'clock."

She saw that the presentation was scheduled to start at 8:30, so arriving at 9:00 would be perfect.

The next morning, Xiao Li drove to pick up Jian Ning.

Jianning squeezed two cups of corn juice and took them with her.

One cup was for Xiao Li, and the other was for myself.

Xiao Li took a sip and his eyes lit up. "Ningning, this corn juice is delicious."

"Right? My corn has recently ripened, so I've been drinking it every day." Jian Ning smiled helplessly and told the truth: "Actually, I'm almost tired of drinking it, haha."

Xiao Li looked at her, and, infected by her smile, smiled back.

It was already 10 o'clock when the two of them arrived at the new vegetable variety exhibition and promotion meeting.

There was some traffic on the road, so the journey took longer than expected.

After entering the promotional event with a ticket, you'll find various neatly arranged stalls, offering not only vegetables but also fruits and flowers.

The new variety demonstration and promotion meeting is held on stage. Experts will come up on stage at 10:30 to give explanations and introductions, and the top three will be selected at the end.

The stalls below displayed seeds and seedlings from various farms, as well as some varieties they had developed themselves.

Some of them are in season, and they were brought over with the soil and pots, like strawberries.

The strawberry section was the most popular because we prepared a lot of strawberries for everyone to try.

Jian Ning loves to join in on fun.

She pulled Xiao Li closer and let him try it.

Jian Ning ate one herself, handed one to Xiao Li, and shared her thoughts after eating it: "This strawberry is delicious, so fragrant and sweet."

Xiao Li took a bite and nodded: "Yes, it's really delicious."

Jian Ning: "Let's try something else. Hmm, this white strawberry is a bit bland, but it's still a novel taste."

Xiao Li stayed close behind Jian Ning, carefully protecting her with his hands to prevent her from being jostled by others. Every now and then, he would take the strawberries Jian Ning offered and taste them.
