Looking at their anxious looks, Timeus couldn’t express his helplessness.
He was kind of jealous. “They’ve never been this enthusiastic about my medicinal herbs.

But these were potential business partners, so he shook his head apologetically. “As you saw, those oranges were a gift from my friend. I don’t know if he has any more.”
The translator translated this sentence to this group of foreigners, which instantly aroused a heated discussion.
They even want to go back to Taylor now and ask him where he bought his oranges.
Everyone thought so, and it almost hit it off.
So they made an appointment in just a few seconds, and the visit was less important than the little oranges.
While the tour could wait, those miraculous oranges might disappear forever.
Then, do you know where your friend is? Can we go find him?”
“I am very willing to buy from him at a high price!”
Now the purpose of their group has completely changed; all of them have been lured by these oranges.
Timeus took them along to find Taylor.
In fact, he also wanted to know where Taylor bought the orange. If it was okay, he also wanted to take some back for his family to enjoy.
At this moment.
Taylor stood before four withering wild blood ginseng plants.
He looked at them thoughtfully.
As Timeus had warned, they appeared beyond saving.
Their leaves were limp and gray like elderly men on death’s door.
A staff member next to him was still explaining to him.
Taylor didn’t listen. He waved his hand. “Just these four. Find a basin to pack it for me. I want to take them away.”
The staff was stunned for a moment.
The four small wild ginseng had no medicinal properties and were hopeless, and he really did not know why Taylor wanted them
Obviously, there was so much blood ginseng here.
The staff couldn’t figure it out, but he obediently found four pots, transplanted the four wild blood ginseng plants into the pots, packed them up, and put them in Taylor’s car.
After getting the blood ginseng. Taylor went to look for other medicinal materials.
In such a large breeding base, there must be wild medicinal materials.

He gathered even the scrawniest specimens like a bargain hunter.
Wandering around several parks, he was sometimes attracted by the herbs that grew particularly well.
As he crouched down to check on a certain herb, Alex, who had been following him, suddenly called out to him.
“Professor Johnson, those foreign friends and Mr. Albert are walking toward us.”
Hearing this, Taylor quickly looked up.
Sure enough, a group of people came over.
Seeing them coming, Taylor was reminded of the pain of being tortured by Yuresnese of this group of foreigners.
His heart tightened, and he stood up and turned around to leave.
He also didn’t want to meet these people again.
But the foreign friends seemed to be coming for him, and when they hurried here, they were calling him.
“Olden main!”
Even after hearing it once, Taylor was silenced.
He wanted to run even more.
However, he ran a little late, and those young people were fast and could catch up with him in three steps.
Taylor, who was surrounded in the middle, looked rather like a sheep in a wolf’s den.
He didn’t know why, but the group of foreigners looked at him with bright eyes.
It was not an exaggeration to say that their eyes were shining.
“Hello.” Being stared at by so many people, a forced smile appeared on his face.
The excited foreign friends gave him a never–ending compliment.
“God, we’ve been looking for you for a long time!”

Taylor could understand their language, but with so many people talking at the same time, it was so noisy that he couldn’t hear clearly.
He felt like a celebrity mobbed by fans.
Timeus was aged and walked slowly. After Taylor was surrounded for a round, he walked over slowly.
“Taylor, have you found all the herbs?”
“Yes, I’m about to leave.”
As soon as Taylor spoke, these foreigners quieted down and listened to his conversation with Timeus, although they couldn’t
understand.
“I want to ask where did you buy those little oranges you gave me just now?”
Knowing that he was leaving, Timeus didn’t want to waste his time and asked directly.
He reached into his pocket and took out the orange peel he had just peeled.

“This kind of orange. It’s so delicious.”
Timeus, a man in his seventies, was also excited, just like these young foreigners.
Taylor had known for a long time that Timeus would react this way, and was not at all surprised.
But he was going to let Timeus down.
“My disciple gifted them to me. I have none left.” His voice was sincere.
Timeus was a little disappointed when he heard the words, but then adjusted his mentality and continued to ask with perseverance, “Then can you help me ask your apprentice where she got the oranges?”

He pointed at the excited foreign friends next to him. “My friends tasted it and thought it was delicious. They wanted to take some back, but they didn’t have the channels.”
Hearing this, Taylor looked at the foreigners.
They nodded vigorously like hungry chicks with eagerness.
Taylor didn’t know what to say.
Timeus was really generous. He was willing to share such delicious oranges with others. If he did, he would hide and eat alone.
After retracting his gaze, a bit of a dilemma appeared on his face.
“Well, Timeus, it’s not that I don’t want to say it. Actually, I don’t know either.”
In order to add to the truth of his words, he directly brought out Yvonne.
“You remember my disciple, don’t you? You attended her apprenticeship ceremony. Her family is quite wealthy. Her mother is the head of the Holmes family. Somehow, they got their hands on a crate of these special oranges, and since I’m her master, she gifted me some. After tasting how delicious they were, I shared some with you. But as for where they originally came from, I truly have no idea.”
After he finished speaking, Timeus‘ hope deflated.
He recalled the scene on the day of the apprenticeship ceremony.
The Holmes family certainly had the wealth and connections to obtain such rare delicacies. But without any personal ties to them, Timeus had no way of inquiring further.
What a pity.
At this time, a pang of bitter regret washed over him once more.
If he had known this earlier, he really shouldn’t have generously distributed the oranges to these foreigners!
Although the foreign friends couldn’t quite hear what they were saying, they could tell from the general content of the translation that the purchase of the small oranges had come to nothing.
Hearing what they were saying about the Holmes family, the foreigners reignited their curiosity.
Someone interrupled the two who were talking and asked Taylor, “What is the Holmes family? If we do business with them, will they give us some small oranges?”
After hearing the translator say this, Taylor was stunned.

He turned to find the entire group staring at him with rapt attention, their wide–eyed expressions uncannily reminiscent of a row of hungry nestlings awaiting their next meal.
