Chapter 1824: Searching for the Fruit

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Mr. McDonald, hello..."

Jeffrey exclaimed.

"There’s no need to be so polite. Let’s get down to business!"

At this moment, Connor was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Jeffrey at all. He sat on the chair and then poured himself a cup of tea.

Jeffrey also sat down after hesitating for a moment.

"I heard that you know something about a divine herb. I’m very interested in the divine herb you mentioned. Can you tell me about it?"

Connor asked Jeffrey softly after drinking a mouthful of water.

"Mr. McDonald, I wasn’t the one who discovered the divine herb, but my family’s workers accidentally found it when they went to the mountains to pick herbs. They felt that the herb was very strange, so they took a photo and sent it to me for identification. I didn’t recognize the herb after seeing the photo, so I went to ask my master. My master found out that the herb was called the Soul Returning Fruit after looking through many ancient books..."

Jeffrey looked at Connor nervously.

"Are you saying that you have a photo of that medicinal herb in your hand?"

When Josiah heard Jeffrey’s words, he seemed a little excited.

"Yes!"

Jeffrey nodded lightly.

"Then, can I see it?"

Josiah continued.

"Well..."

Jeffrey seemed a little hesitant.

Connor knew what Jeffrey was hesitating about, so he said, "Tell me, how much do you want?"

"Mr. McDonald, the price I negotiated with Mr. Morgan was 50 million, but Mr. Morgan didn’t agree to it. Since you came personally today, 20 million will do!"

Jeffrey replied softly.

"If the medicinal herb you mentioned is really the Soul Returning Fruit, I’ll give you 50 million. If not, I’ll give you 20 million!"

Connor said lightly.

"You are really generous, Mr. McDonald!"

Jeffrey was overjoyed when he heard Connor’s words. He quickly took out his phone and looked for the photo to pass to Josiah.

Josiah looked at the photo on his phone seriously.

The surrounding environment of this photo was the same as the environment where the Soul Returning Fruit grew as described by Josiah. It was in a snowy mountain, and in the vast white snow, there was a red plant that was rather obvious.

There was a whole fruit at the top of the red plant. This fruit was completely red and the size of a cherry. It looked very strange.

After all, normal plants would not survive in such a cold environment.

However, this one was actually able to survive and bear fruit. It was really unbelievable.

Josiah carefully looked at the photo several times, then said excitedly to Connor, "Mr. McDonald, this medicinal herb is the Soul Returning Fruit. It’s exactly the same as what was recorded in the ancient book..."

"Of course, it’s the Soul Returning Fruit. My master also read a lot of information before he could confirm it."

Jeffrey grinned and said.

"..."

Connor was somewhat excited because he didn’t expect to find the Soul Returning Fruit so quickly.

"Then, where is this Soul Returning Fruit now? Did your workers bring back the fruit?"

Connor hurriedly asked Jeffrey.

"Well..."

The expression on Jeffrey’s face appeared somewhat helpless when he heard Connor’s words.

"If you’re willing to sell me the Soul Returning Fruit, I’ll buy it no matter how much it costs!"

Connor said directly.

"Mr. McDonald, this really isn’t a matter of money. Back then, my family’s workers discovered this medicinal herb when they were picking herbs. However, because the medicinal herb was quite far from their location, it might have been dangerous if they went over, so they took this photo of me first to ask me if this medicinal herb was valuable..."

Jeffrey said slowly.

"And then?"

Connor hurriedly asked.

"However, because I didn’t get back to them quick enough, they were attacked by some wild beasts when they returned to look for that medicinal ingredient. In the end, only one of them returned. The rest were eaten by the wild beasts..."

Jeffrey said sadly.

"Wild beasts?"

Connor frowned when he heard that.

"Mr. McDonald, all top-notch divine herbs are usually protected by wild beasts. After all, these medicinal herbs can emit spiritual energy. Those wild beasts will rely on absorbing this spiritual energy to survive. Therefore, they will definitely not let anyone take the medicinal herbs that easily. Once someone takes the medicinal herbs, it will be equivalent to taking their lives..."

Josiah looked at Connor and explained.

"I see..."

Connor looked at Josiah and nodded without saying anything.

"Later on, I found out the value of this Soul Returning Fruit. Therefore, I sent people to search for it a few more times. However, there was no result in the end. My people never came out after entering that mountain..."

Jeffrey said to Connor.

"Didn’t you say that one of them survived? Where is that person now?"

Connor looked at Jeffrey and asked.

"That person seemed to have been scared silly by that incident. After he came back, he fell seriously ill and was unwilling to go out. I looked for him several times, but he avoided me!"

Jeffrey said slowly.

"It must be due to excessive shock..."

Connor replied indifferently and then continued, "Give that person a call now and tell him that as long as he’s willing to come and tell me everything that happened that day in detail, no matter how much money he wants I can give it to him..."

"Alright, I’ll make the call now!"

Jeffrey hurriedly nodded.

Connor knew that the easiest way to deal with ordinary people was to use money.

Although that person was depressed because of what happened last time, he had to live on no matter what. Therefore, as long as Connor gave him enough money, that person would definitely come.

As expected, Jeffrey returned to Connor’s side very quickly and then said softly to Connor, "Mr. McDonald, he said that he wants five million dollars before he’s willing to come..."

"Agree to it..."

Connor nodded without thinking.

Jeffrey did not seem to have expected Connor to agree so readily. After being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly took his phone and walked out of the private room.

"Mr. McDonald, if what Jeffrey said is true, then it is really possible for us to refine the Soul Returning Pill..."

Josiah was also very excited.

"I don’t think he has the guts to lie to me. After all, he’s from Porthampton. Once I find out that he is lying to me, he knows very well what his fate will be..."

Connor said slowly.

"I think so too. After all, it was Jeffrey who came to me first. He probably didn’t have the ability to bring the Soul Returning Fruit back, but he was unwilling to give up such a good opportunity to earn money, so he came to me. What he said should be credible..."

Thomas added.

"I hope I can find the Soul Returning Fruit!"

Connor sighed softly.
