Chapter 76 10,000-year-old Ginseng

Murong Xue was also extremely busy. Although there were several capable staff in the company who could help her with everything, she still needed to deal with many things in person. The Space was already packed with chickens, fruit trees, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. It would be too wasteful if she simply left them like that.

Since Murong Xue learned the books in Space, everything she used had been developed by herself, including skincare products. According to the secret formulas applied in the Palace, she refined them and made natural pollution-free herbal skincare products, which could promote blood circulation, nourish the skin, maintain skin vitality, and even speed up metabolism. Because spiritual water was also added to the products, long-term use could eliminate body toxins and even stop bleeding and remove blood stasis.

Murong Xue also gave her grandma, her mother, and Mo Aili each one set of the products. Now the three people realized the benefits of skincare products made by Murong Xue and were no longer willing to use products they bought outside. Because of their strong recommendation, Murong Xue even planned to expand business in the beauty and skincare industry.

However, manpower was a real headache for her. Gu Ming, Luo Shengfei, and Mo Ziwen were already occupied with too much work.

She could guarantee that the items produced from her Space would never be inferior. And she also didn't need to worry about the sales. Instead of incorporating her skincare products into the Rise Group, she intended to register another company. After all, it wouldn't be conducive to the group if it got too conspicuous. Recently, it seemed that other enterprises had jointly tried to attack Rise Group consciously. Therefore, she planned to register a new company for the new project.

Women's cosmetic products such as skin care products were a major industry, and the competition in this field was relatively fierce. It was a little difficult if Murong Xue operated this business alone. Who could she find to cooperate with? She didn't want to work with people she didn't know. If she met someone with ulterior motives, she would end up getting into trouble.

Murong Xue thought of Mo Aili. Mr. Mo was a prominent figure in the military and politics. If she wanted to expand her business, the Mo Family would be a good shelter. Besides, Mo Aili was also a good friend. She could trust Mo Aili. She just didn't know if Mo Aili's grandpa would be against it. According to her memory in her previous life, Mo Aili didn't seem to be involved in too much business.

She remembered that she didn't visit Grandpa Mo after doing acupuncture last time. Mo Liufeng called her several times, but she was already at the venue of the International Stone Gambling Assembly at that time, which was inconvenient. Thus, she promised to visit them when she came back. It had been a month. She didn't know if Grandpa Mo was still in A province. Maybe he already returned to the capital.

Murong Xue took out her cell phone and dialed Mo Aili's number. "Hello, Aili!"

"It's so rare. You actually take the initiative to call me! Ha-ha. Tell me. Is there anything that you want me to help with?" Mo Aili's hearty voice sounded.

Murong Xue was speechless. "You make it sound like I haven't called you before. I miss you very much, okay?"

"Humph! Anyway, I know you haven't called me when you went to the capital for a month, but I'll forgive you for the great gift you bought. What's wrong? You call me quite early in the morning."

"Well, is Grandpa Mo still in A province? I want to visit him and I have something to discuss with you." Murong Xue asked.

"Grandpa is still in A province. Just come. What's the matter? Tell me!"

After thinking about it, Murong Xue said slowly, "Aili, are you interested in doing business? I want to start a beauty company and ask you to be my partner. What do you think?"

Did she want to start a company? Mo Aili was not quite surprised. She also owned some businesses. Although there were not many, they were assigned to her by the Mo Family. She didn't even need to manage them. There were professional talents in charge of management, so she only needed to collect the profits. Speaking of which, she never set up her own business. "Although I also want to start my own business, Xue, I don't have any resources. It's not easy to develop the market of beauty products, and research on products will be a big problem."

"Don't worry about product research. I have ready-made product ingredient data. The skincare products I gave you last time are the products we want to produce and operate. What do you think?" Murong Xue didn't worry about the product at all. Could the things produced from Space be inferior?

"What? The product you gave me last time is yours? I thought it was developed by one of your friends. Of course, the product is good. If you're talking about the natural product you gave me last time, I think I'll take a big advantage. Even if I don't cooperate with you, the magic of that product is enough for you to open up the market." Mo Aili thought that she would take advantage of Murong Xue.

Murong Xue smiled, "I'm the one who will take advantage of you. The Mo Family is a good shelter!"

Mo Aili immediately understood. "When will you come then? Come here and we'll discuss it!"

"I have to prepare something. I'll meet you in two hours!" Murong Xue felt that it was necessary to have a proposal document if she wanted to get consent from Grandpa Mo. If she didn't come prepared, maybe she would leave Grandpa Mo a bad impression.

"Well, I'll see you later." Mo Aili hung up and then called her brother.

Murong Xue called Luo Shengfei, simply described the creative ideas of beauty products, asked him to make a proposal, and told him that she would go to the company to find him two hours later.

Luo Shengfei was surprised. His boss was extraordinary. She involved herself in various industries at such a young age and excelled at each industry. Even a few key members of the company were also remarkable figures.

However, he got lucky. But he was very curious about how Murong Xue found him in the first place and gave him so much power to plan a series of strategies for the company. He was already prepared that people would object, but he didn't expect his boss to completely agree with the plan that seemed absurd to everyone.

Fortunately, he made good achievements, otherwise, even if he was confident, he would still feel uneasy and have an impulse to die for this company.

Murong Xue found 10,000-year-old ginseng in Space and packed it in a box. She was going to give it to Grandpa Mo as a gift, which could help to nourish Grandpa Mo's body. She also picked some fresh fruits in Space. Although it might seem awkward to bring fruit to such a well-off family, these were not ordinary fruits. And she believed that Grandpa Mo and the others would be pleased, especially a foodie like Mo Aili.

Two hours later, Murong Xue went straight to the president's office, greeted Gu Ming and the others, and then left with the proposal. She was going to Grandpa Mo's house today, so she didn't have much time to discuss affairs with Gu Ming and the others.

Half an hour later, Murong Xue carrying two bags of fruit and a box was led to the living room of the Mo Family.

As she walked in, Murong Xue found that there were guests in their house, which was embarrassing. Mo Aili did not tell her that there were guests. How embarrassed she was to come and visit like this!

In addition to Grandpa Mo, Mo Liufeng, and Mo Aili, there were two other people in the living room. One was a lady in her forties, while the other sitting next to her was a younger and beautiful girl and was about 20 years old.

Murong Xue walked over, bowed to Grandpa Mo respectfully, and then said somewhat apologetically, "Grandpa Mo, I'm sorry for a sudden visit. I hope it doesn't bother you. These fruits are grown by ourselves without the use of pesticides. I bring these to you to have a try. And this one is for you, too." Murong Xue placed the fruit on the table and then handed the box with 10,000-year-old ginseng to Grandpa Mo.

Mo Changfeng changed his expression when he saw it was Murong Xue who came. With a smiling face, he looked so amiable that one might wonder if it was still Mo Changfeng himself. "Xue, how would I be bothered? I hope you can come to visit for a long time. Ha-ha, why do you bring gifts here? Just take here like your own home. You don't need to make this gesture. Come. Sit over here." He took the box but did not open it and placed it on the table next to him. Then he waved his hand and motioned for Murong Xue to sit next to him.

"Xue, you have finally come. I have been waiting for you for a long time." Mo Aili also smiled and said.

Mo Liufeng did not speak, but he was smiling. Also, he was impatient with the other guests ― the mother and daughter.

The mother and daughter were extremely distant relatives of the Mo Family, but their family background was fine. They were the Wu Family in the capital. The older one was Liu Jiao and the younger one was her daughter named Wu Linlin. He didn't how they found out that he was in A province. They found an inexplicable excuse to come and visit.

Mo Liufeng knew what they were up to, not to mention Wu Linlin's bold gaze at him, which was disgusting.

Liu Jiao didn't stop eying Murong Xue since she saw her come in. Murong Xue was dressed in simple casual sportswear with no special accessories. She looked pretty. However, she didn't seem like a child from a rich family. She also brought two bags of fruit. How could she not be bashful to bring that to the Mo Family? Didn't she know what kind of occasion this was? "Whose daughter is she? Why haven't I seen her in any renowned family?" Although the tone was not ironic, the meaning between the words sounded scornful.

Wu Linlin had been looking at the appearance of Murong Xue and found that she was indeed more beautiful than herself. She was slightly displeased. Especially when she noticed the attitude of the Mo Family towards Murong Xue, she was even more annoyed. She and her mother came from the capital early in the morning, but they didn't see Mo Changfeng say a few words to her kindly.

Of course, Mo Aili wouldn't embarrass Murong Xue. "She is my best friend and classmate, Murong Xue. Xue, this is Auntie Liu and her daughter, Wu Linlin."

Murong Xue smiled faintly, "Nice to meet you."

Her smile fascinated Mo Liufeng. Speaking of which, he felt that he had not seen her for a long time.

Mo Liufeng's expression irritated Wu Linlin. She came here for him, but let a little girl steal the limelight. She looked at the fruit brought by Murong Xue and then glanced at the box that Mo Changfeng put aside. Then she sneered for she just sent a piece of the best glass jade to Grandpa Mo. She wanted to see what kind of funny gift this girl called Murong Xue gave.

Wu Linlin pretended to say innocently, "Grandpa Mo, what treasure did Miss Murong send? Let's see how it will amaze us!"

Grandpa Mo's face darkened. How could he not realize the meaning of this since he was at such an age? She clearly wanted to embarrass Murong Xue. The reason why he didn't open it just now was that he was afraid of making Murong Xue lose face. He liked Murong Xue very much, not to mention the fact that she had saved his life.

In the eyes of Mo Changfeng, Murong Xue was a young lady with excellent medical skills. She was only 19 years old and was about the same age as his granddaughter. She might not have much pocket money, so she wouldn't send a gift similar to the best glass jade which was worth tens of millions. He wouldn't despise Murong Xue's gift. No matter what kind of gift Murong Xue sent him, he would like it.

However, when there were guests, the gifts given by several people would always be compared. He definitely didn't want Murong Xue who had saved him before to lose face.

Murong Xue said lightly, "It's not a gift, and I'm afraid that you guys might laugh." She didn't want people to think that she had ulterior motives to send gifts.

Mo Changfeng also said, "The gift is not important. The important thing is to be sincere."

Wu Linlin thought to herself. "I just want to see you make a fool of yourself." She said, "Miss Murong, don't be modest. Grandpa Mo said that it was fine if you're sincere. We also want to see how sincere you are."

Liu Jiao also helped her daughter. "Yes, just take a look. Everyone is curious."

Mo Changfeng's face darkened. As he just wanted to refuse, Murong Xue replied first, "Ha-ha, since everyone wants to see it, Grandpa Mo, you might as well open it for them to have a look." Originally, she didn't want anyone other than the Mo Family to know what gift she sent, but the mother and daughter seemed to be hostile to her. They insisted on seeing the gift she gave for no reason. Did they want to laugh at her? If so, they would be disappointed.

Mo Changfeng took a look at Murong Xue and found that she really didn't mind. Then he picked up the plain wooden box and slowly opened it.

The moment he opened it, Mo Changfeng widened his eyes instantly. He had never seen such a large plant of ginseng in fine condition. Looking at the dense ring lines on the ginseng, he speculated that it was at least thousands of years old. This couldn't be measured by money. In the previous Hengyuan Auction, a plant of 300-year-old ginseng was auctioned at a high price of tens of millions. The ginseng that Murong Xue gave him might be more than thousands of years old, which couldn't be bought with money. It was at least at a price of more than 100 million.

As Wu Linlin looked at Mo Changfeng being shocked, she was even more anxious. Was it too ashamed to be seen? Maybe that was why he was so surprised. "Grandpa Mo, what's wrong? Let us have a look!"

Only then did Mo Changfeng withdraw his surprised gaze and place the box to the center of the table. His tone was much heavier. "You should have a look. This is a great treasure. You can't buy it with money." After that, he took a meaningful look at Murong Xue. This gift was too expensive.

At this moment, everyone was shocked. They were all people who had seen many fine things. Naturally, they could see that this ginseng had been existing for a long time.

Liu Jiao was even more surprised with a slightly high-pitched voice. "How is it possible? How could a young girl like her take out such aged ginseng?"
