Jin Shangyue also knew that these old foxes wouldn't act until they saw the benefits.
Moreover, she wanted so many resources, and a single top-grade healing potion wasn't enough to negotiate with these old men.
To get them to agree to cooperate and use the family's resources in the deal, she needs to offer some more leverage.
At the very least, the variety of medications needs to be increased.
Jin Shangyue smiled and said, "Of course, if I only had top-grade healing potions, I wouldn't be so embarrassed to ask you for so many resources."
After Jinshangyue finished speaking, she placed a vial of emerald green medicine on the tea table.
"This vial of medicine is my token of sincerity."
Everyone picked up the vial of medicine with great interest and took turns examining it.
"Yueyue, what is this medicine? Tell me quickly."
The crowd urged them on excitedly, disregarding the previous conflicts, for their interests were of paramount importance.
Everyone is focused on the medicine right now and has no time to think about anything else.
This lively scene truly exemplifies the saying, "There are no permanent enemies or friends, only permanent interests."
"This is a gene-editing drug."
"What?" The old man immediately frowned, displeased. "We thought it was something good. We all have plenty of gene-modifying drugs. It's just the most common one out of all. Are you trying to fool us?!"
Jin Shangyue glanced at Yuan Zhou slowly and said, "Grandpa, don't get too angry. Getting angry is bad for your health. You're not young anymore, you should cultivate your temperament more."
"You!" The old man was furious.
Just as they were preparing to teach this impolite brat a lesson, they were suppressed by several elders from the Lan and Yan families.
Grandpa Lan: "Alright, Brother Yuan, you have too much of a temper. You're an elder, why do you always argue with a child?"
Grandpa Yan: "Yes, Brother Yuan, just sit down and listen carefully. Yueyue has definitely not finished speaking yet. Don't be impatient. We are all waiting. Don't disturb us."
The Jiang family patriarch and others also spoke up, saying, "Sit down quickly and let Yueyue finish speaking first. Don't interrupt."
Yuanzhou was attacked by a group of people, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. His face turned red and then pale, and he was so angry that his chest hurt.
But these old men ignored him completely, and instead spoke softly and gently to that brat Jin Shangyue.
"Yueyue, continue speaking, ignore this old geezer."
"That's right, Yueyue, go on. Old Man Yuan is just going through menopause, just ignore him."
...
Yuanzhou: ...I'm so angry!
You talk as if you old geezers aren't annoying, rotten old men!
We're all around the same age, from the same generation. If I go through menopause, you old geezers won't be able to escape either!
However, no one really paid any attention to Yuanzhou.
Even the old men from the Lu, Lan, and Chang families no longer stood on the same side as Yuanzhou as before.
After all, everyone is here to discuss business and seek profits; we are all competitors.
Take them down one by one.
Jin Shangyue smiled lingeringly and continued, "If it were the same as the gene serums on the market, I wouldn't be able to offer it to you gentlemen to discuss cooperation."
"The gene serum I developed has a much higher enhancement level than the gene serums sold on the market."
"This medicine can develop human functions to at least 60% or more, and that's just the minimum."
"Everyone's physical condition and genes are different. Some people can even develop 80% or 90% of their potential after taking it."
Everyone was surprised, and a hint of joy appeared in their eyes.
Given their status and position, they are naturally the most knowledgeable about pharmaceuticals and related matters worldwide.
Currently, the best gene-modifying agent available on the entire Abyss Star is the J-20 gene-modifying agent.
This is already the best gene-based drug.
However, its enhancement and development level is only 35%.
The gene serum that Jinshangyue presented, setting aside everything else, is enough to make everyone excited and approve of its enhancement and development capabilities alone.
Amidst everyone's joy, Jin Shangyue dropped another bombshell.
"In addition, the most powerful and unique aspect of this gene drug is that it can stimulate the body's latent energy."
Everyone was taken aback. What did that mean? Could it be what they were thinking?
Everyone's hearts pounded, and their eyes involuntarily turned fervent.
Jin Shangyue stopped keeping everyone in suspense and explained in detail.
"The humans living in this world now are all new humans who have evolved. They are born nourished by spiritual energy, unlike those in ancient times."
"Therefore, there is a portion of necrotic, or small amount of, unawakened, or perhaps never-awakened energy within the human body."
"This medicine can stimulate the body's latent energy, allowing it to regenerate energy that was originally damaged."
"Simply put, after taking it, there is a high probability that it will stimulate new superpowers, new spiritual roots, or the meridians will be widened exponentially, and mental strength will surge."
"What new energy will be unleashed depends on each individual's circumstances."
As the old men's faces gradually became flushed with excitement, Jin Shangyue continued.
"This vial of potion is a high-grade potion; you gentlemen can try it out yourselves."
"Of course, since your cultivation levels are already extraordinary and you are at another level, the effects of high-level potions may not be very noticeable to you."
