NOVEL WEB Chapter 133 - Powerful
The variant cabbage truly had an extraordinary taste, far surpassing that of regular cabbage in its delectable flavor!
Jiang Hao was even more astonished by the mutated cabbage's ability to enhance beauty and nourish the skin!
Shortly after their meal, Jiang Hao noticed a greasy sensation throughout his body, as if impurities were being expelled from within!
The family took turns bathing, each person washing three or four times before calling it quits.
Afterward, Jiang Hao felt significantly lighter and, to his amazement, saw in the mirror that his complexion had become much smoother and fairer!
His mother experienced the most dramatic transformation, appearing years younger!
The profound impact of the cabbage was truly staggering!
“If I were to sell this kind of vegetable, it could fetch a very handsome price, couldn't it?”
Jiang Hao mused with delight. Yet, a flicker of regret soon crossed his face as another thought struck him.
“Even selling this cabbage for a hundred or two hundred yuan wouldn't be considered overpriced, but for now, I can't cultivate it on a large scale.”
“Still, that might be for the best. Scarcity does add value, after all!”
With that realization, Jiang Hao stopped fretting over the matter.
“Regarding the distribution of these mutated vegetables, maybe I should have a chat with Xue Zixi!”
The more he considered it, the more viable the idea seemed, and he promptly resolved to act on it.
“That's the plan, then!”
He hadn't forgotten the counsel of Jiang's father, but he wasn't about to foolishly confront others directly, so there shouldn't be any major issues.
Emboldened by this plan, Jiang Hao proceeded to dissect a regular cabbage in the kitchen and plant the seed from the mutated one.
Tomorrow, he would depend on these extraordinary vegetables to negotiate a deal with Xue Zixi!
……
The night passed without incident.
The following morning, Jiang Hao rose early and was thrilled to discover that all the other mutated vegetables he had planted were now ripe!
He harvested the matured mutated vegetables and prepared a simple yet delightful breakfast for his family.
They finished their meal amidst expressions of wonder and amazement.
Before long, it was nearly midday.
Checking the time, Jiang Hao decided it was the right moment to reach out to Xue Zixi, so he picked up the phone and dialed the number she had left.
In an impeccably clean and upscale office, Xue Zixi gazed at her phone with a hint of surprise at the name flashing on the screen.
“Hmm?”
“Is that him?”
“What could he possibly want?”
After a brief moment of contemplation, Xue Zixi answered the call with a spark of curiosity.
“Hello, Mr. Jiang, what a pleasant surprise!”
“What brings you to me today?”
Jiang Hao wasted no time and dove right into his agenda.
“Nothing too serious, just wanted to discuss a potential business opportunity!”
……
Having set a meeting with Xue Zixi, Jiang Hao, with his unusual vegetables in tow, headed straight for the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern!
Upon arrival, Jiang Hao, carrying his bag, strode confidently through the grand entrance of the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern, believing himself to be the epitome of cool.
But his coolness lasted all but three seconds!
As soon as Jiang Hao approached the entrance, the two security guards looked at him oddly. They stopped him, their plain clothes contrasting sharply with the opulence of the setting.
“Good day, sir!
Could you please present your membership card?”
It was at this moment that Jiang Hao remembered that the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern operated on a membership basis!
Xue Zixi had once given him an exclusive membership card to the establishment.
But, it seemed he had forgotten to bring it along.
Jiang Hao patted himself down in an awkward search, but came up empty-handed.
Turning to the security guards at the door, Jiang Hao sheepishly explained.
“Big brother, I seem to have left my membership card behind, but I'm here for a meeting with the young lady of the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern. Could you possibly let me through?”
