John found the pills incredibly miraculous the more he thought about them, and the more determined he became to get the remaining pills from Ye Weiwei.

Ye Weiwei directly told John about the several precious medicinal herbs in the pill.

When the translator heard Ye Weiwei say that the pills were made from wild ginseng that was over 100 years old, Ganoderma lucidum that was over 300 years old, and no less than ten kinds of precious medicinal materials through a very rigorous and complicated process, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

No wonder Ye Weiwei dared to ask for an exorbitant consultation fee; just from the ingredients, you could tell this pill was no ordinary medicine.

After John learned from the translator how rare a hundred-year-old wild ginseng and a three-hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum were, he understood why Ye Weiwei had that expression when he offered to buy the pills from her.

Ye Weiwei: "So, Mr. John, I'm very sorry, I can't sell you this pill. I saved you before because of a doctor's compassion, not wanting to see you die so young in a foreign land, and also to help a friend. So, I only symbolically accepted a small consultation fee from you, but your friend misunderstood me like this. I really don't want to bear the stigma of being a robber and a swindler."

Moreover, good medicinal herbs are rare. I spent a lot of time and energy just searching for the herbs to make these pills. By chance, I managed to gather enough for one dose, and I only managed to make these ten pills. I want to use these herbs in a way that better reflects their value.

What places best showcase their value?

Is this implying that they don't understand the value of these medicines and are wasting their time?

John's inherent arrogance was suddenly unleashed. Unlike his friend Creek, whose arrogance was outwardly displayed in his words and actions, John was polite and courteous to everyone, but his inherent arrogance was no less than Creek's.

The more Ye Weiwei didn't want to sell, the more determined he became to buy her.

“Beautiful lady, we did misunderstand you before because we didn’t understand the wonders of Chinese medicine. But now I sincerely want to buy the pills you have, and I hope you can part with them. The price is negotiable, how about eight thousand foreign currency per pill?”

Ye Weiwei instinctively clutched the small box in her hand, looking at John warily as if she was afraid he would snatch it away.

Huo Xiao reached out to protect Ye Weiwei, looking at John with a serious expression.

John reluctantly raised his hands. “Beautiful lady, relax. I’m a businessman. As you just said, there’s a saying in China: ‘Harmony brings wealth.’ I’m here to discuss this business with you in a friendly manner. I have no ill intentions whatsoever.”

Ye Weiwei's expression relaxed, and she looked at Huo Xiao beside her. Huo Xiao said, "You make the decision."

Ye Weiwei looked at the train conductor and the others and found that they were all dumbfounded and couldn't keep up with their pace at all. Their minds were only filled with the pill that John had just mentioned, which cost eight thousand foreign dollars.

Eight thousand!

foreign currency!

My God!

The train conductor's eyes gleamed with admiration as he looked at the small wooden box in Ye Weiwei's hand.

How many are there in here?

Ten pills, one used, nine left, nine pills is seventy-two thousand foreign currency...

this……

This unremarkable little wooden box contained 72,000 foreign dollars!

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Weiwei said, "Mr. John, I can't sell you all of these pills. I can only sell you six at most. You've already taken one. Taking six more will complete a full course of treatment, and I believe your physical condition will improve significantly."

Although John intended to buy all the pills, he knew it was impossible given Ye Weiwei's attitude, and Ye Weiwei's explanation was reasonable, so he readily accepted it.

"Alright, let's exchange money for goods."

Ye Weiwei opened the small wooden box, took out three pills, and gave the remaining six pills along with the small wooden box to John.

John readily paid the money.

When Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao returned, their bags were bulging with over 50,000 foreign currency.

The train conductor, worried about their safety with so much money, personally escorted them back.

"Comrade Ye, thank you so much for today!" The train conductor gave Ye Weiwei a thumbs up. "I didn't expect that you not only cured John's illness, but also made a deal with him. You're really amazing."

After saying that, he looked around warily and asked in a low voice, "Is your pill really that powerful?"

Ye Weiwei sighed, her eyes filled with sincerity, "Comrade Train Conductor, my pills are made with the real deal, and they are made with an exclusive secret formula. There is absolutely no exaggeration involved."

The train conductor was a little embarrassed. "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to doubt you."

Ye Weiwei smiled and said, "I know you're worried that John might have some health problems from the food, or that he might feel cheated and have something to explain. Don't worry, that will never happen."

Not only is it unlikely to happen, but there's also the fear that John, after tasting the benefits, will pester her to buy the remaining three.

She regretted that she had only put ten pills in the small wooden box; if she had put more, she could have swindled a large sum from that Creek.

But it's fine this way. It's like Creek can see it but not have it. It must be even more agonizing and painful for someone as arrogant as him.

Ye Weiwei guessed correctly.

On the third day, the train conductor came over and said that John and Creek wanted to invite her and Huo Xiao to lunch to thank Ye Weiwei for saving their lives.

Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao exchanged a glance and gladly accepted the invitation.

The food in the foreign guests' dining car was much more plentiful than in the regular dining car, and she had been wanting to try it for a long time.

To show respect, she specially changed into the outfit she wore at her wedding, and let her two braids loosen, putting her hair up in a bun at the back of her head.

Huo Xiao changed into a green military uniform, exuding an innate sense of authority. Standing beside Ye Weiwei, he was like a guardian angel.

As soon as the two entered the foreign guests' dining car, John immediately came up to greet them warmly. Even Creek, who was next to him, smiled and no longer acted superior, showing the proper politeness.

Ye Weiwei greeted John and Creek with graceful movements, and Huo Xiao nodded politely. The two followed them to their seats.

The food in the foreign guests' dining car was indeed plentiful. In addition to a few common dishes, there was roast chicken and roast duck, apples, bananas and pears, as well as exquisite snacks, wine and beverages.

John and Creek ordered red wine, but Huo Xiao, who doesn't drink, politely declined their offer, and neither of them insisted.

Ye Weiwei ordered a glass of orange soda, which tasted a bit sweet, similar to a sugary drink for couch potatoes.

Ye Weiwei spoke directly to John in a foreign language, with Creek occasionally chiming in. Huo Xiao couldn't understand, and focused more on feeding Ye Weiwei, creating a rather harmonious atmosphere.

After dinner, Ye Weiwei observed John's complexion and took the initiative to steer the conversation towards the effects of the pills he had taken. John excitedly said to Ye Weiwei, "Ye, your pills are really amazing! Oh my god, I can hardly believe it, they are so miraculous!"
