Chapter 299 - Blessing Potion
“Mr. Su, are you serious?”
Xiao Ke'er was visibly thrilled.
Some people remain unexcited simply because they haven't yet met someone worth getting excited over.
“Yes.”
Su Ming remained composed.
His warehouse was full of them.
Why would he lie about that?
“Mr. Su, I…”
Xiao Ke'er was so excited she was tripping over her words.
After a moment, she took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
With earnestness, Xiao Ke'er spoke, “Mr. Su, I have a favor to ask of you.”
“What is it?” Su Ming asked, unfazed.
Perhaps she wanted him to use the herbs to help someone?
He was acquainted with Xiao Ke'er and her group, but they weren't close friends.
These herbs were exceedingly rare, precious commodities that were no longer available.
“Mr. Su, I'm aware of how rare and valuable your herbs are. I don't expect you to part with all of them. Just a little to improve my grandfather's health would be enough, to give him time to fulfill his wishes,” Xiao Ke'er said cautiously, watching Su Ming's reaction.
Seeing that Su Ming was expressionless, Xiao Ke'er quickly added, “Of course, we wouldn't expect you to do this for nothing. My request is simply that you don't sell the herbs to anyone else for the time being. I'll go home now and will certainly come back with an offer that you'll find satisfactory. How does that sound?”
“And of course,” Xiao Ke'er added hastily, “if you're not happy with the final offer, you're free to decline.”
Su Ming nodded. “Alright.”
“Thank you so much, Mr. Su!”
Xiao Ke'er was ecstatic, turning her attention to Xiao Chen: “Hurry! Let's get in the car and head home!”
“Okay!”
Xiao Chen was equally delighted.
This was destiny, wasn't it?
“Brother-in-law, when will you come over for dinner?” Xiao Chen asked cheerfully as he headed for the car.
“Get in!”
Xiao Ke'er grabbed her brother by the neck and shoved him into the car.
“Mr. Su, my apologies…”
Xiao Ke'er quickly regained her composure and grace as she settled into the car.
Xiao Chen rolled down the window: “Brother-in-law, how about you come over tonight? My parents are both home!”
“Shut up! Uncle Wang, step on it!”
The vehicle gradually picked up speed and headed off into the distance.
“Brother-in-law…”
Xiao Chen stuck his head out and yelled, but after only two words, a hand yanked him back.
Su Ming chuckled, not particularly concerned about the incident.
He glanced at the time; it was almost time for the pig to be released from its cage.
What would it be this time?
Another Fruit Pig?
Curiosity swelled within Su Ming.
He quickly made his way to the pigsty.
Upon seeing the five large white pigs, Su Ming was taken aback!
What was this?
The pigs in the sty had shrunk in size.
They trotted around with tiny steps, their bodies transparent as if crafted from glass, filled with a golden liquid.
What was this?
The first time, it was a Fruit Pig!
But this time, after his diligent care, they had transformed!
Was this a hidden variable of the System?
He had discovered it so effortlessly.
Su Ming blinked and quickly stepped forward, bending down to lift a pig.
The moment he lifted the little pig, it became motionless.
It had truly turned into a glass pig, the size of a glass piggy bank.
Additionally, Su Ming noticed a water valve on the pig's head.
Its nostrils were hollow.
Meaning, if he wanted to extract the contents from within the little pig, they would need to come out through its nostrils.
Was the System intentionally doing this?
“Congratulations, Host, on obtaining the Top Grade Golden Blessing Potion!”
“If you drink a mouthful of Blessing Potion, all will go well. Two mouthfuls, and you'll win the lottery. Three, and you'll ascend to the pinnacle of life!”
“System alert: While the Blessing Potion is beneficial, moderation is key. Don't overindulge!”
“Occasionally enjoying a cup or two of Blessing Potion is fine, but excessive consumption could lead to unforeseen consequences. Please be cautious, Host!”
“The Blessing Potion is effective not just on humans!”
Su Ming was momentarily taken aback.
“Could this be a potion of good fortune?”
He was astounded.
The System's message was crystal clear to Su Ming.
An occasional sip or two of the Blessing Potion was acceptable, but too much could have significant repercussions.
What really grabbed Su Ming's attention was the final statement.
The Blessing Potion wasn't just effective on humans; it likely worked on plants and animals too.
What did that imply?
It suggested that he could use it when feeding pigs or tending to his flowers in the future.
By doing so, his chances of achieving Top Grade status would soar!
Su Ming burst into laughter.
This was truly an amazing find!
Elated, Su Ming quickly scooped up the remaining four pigs and made his way back to the villa with great care.
Glass items are often quite delicate.
Even though the System might offer protection, what if it didn't come through?
That's why he needed to handle everything with extra caution.
