After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

701 1.28 million

This woman was a lunatic!

However, there was nothing he could do. After all, he had to use money to buy his life now. There were very few 100-year-old ginsengs on the market. If he did not buy the few 100-year-old ginsengs that Qiao Mei had, he would have no other way out.

If not for the fact that he had no other choice, he would not have been restrained by this woman to this extent.

“Alright, I understand, but it might take some time. You also know that it’s not easy to find those denominations,” He Ning said.

Qiao Mei nodded indifferently. To her, it did not matter if she gave such 100-year-old ginsengs to everyone in the village for free, but she just did not want to let He Ning have it easy.

If she had a place to store so much money, she would definitely ask him to exchange it for that special money. She could indeed store everything in the 40-room courtyard house, but these things were made of paper and would fade over time. Moreover, if they were left unattended for a long time, they would get damaged.

If so, the value would also plummet. She could not possibly rent a bank vault just to store that money.

The annual storage fees would be cumulatively higher than the total value of her money.

“Write me an IOU. I’m not in a hurry to get this money. I’ll ask you for it when I return to the capital,” Qiao Mei said as she took out a pen and paper and handed it to He Ning.

He Ning was about to write when he paused. He also wanted the rest of the 100-year-old ginseng.

“How much do you want for the remaining two 100-year-old ginsengs?” He Ning asked as he recapped the pen.

Qiao Mei had not thought of the price yet, but she could not ask for those types of denominations anymore. She would just ask him for proper cash.

“There are still two left. Let’s just be straightforward and settle the price quickly. 880,000 dollars. What do you think?” Qiao Mei said.

“You’re not being straightforward. You sold the first one to me for 400,000 dollars, so why are you adding 80,000 dollars to these two?” He Ning said with a helpless smile.

“Don’t you have to pay for manpower and storage? Besides, I’m not going to dig them out for you now. I have to wait until I go back to look for you. After all, it has already been growing for so long. Maybe it will be at its most effective by then? The medicinal effects are different at different timings. Do you really want to be calculative with me over this 80,000 dollars,” Qiao Mei said.

He Ning had no choice but to grit his teeth and write down the IOU of 1.28 million dollars that he owed Qiao Mei, as well as the payment timeline. If he could revitalize the family business, this 1.28 million dollars was not a big issue.

It was worth it to use 1.28 million dollars to extend his lifespan by more than 30 years.

“Take this ginseng and leave quickly. I don’t want to see you in this village again. You’ve brought too much trouble,” Qiao Mei said.

He Ning had wanted to stay in the village for a few more days, but he did not expect to have to leave so soon. It seemed that he would not be able to freeload any more meals.

“Then can you cook me fish before I leave? And the chicken in the yard,” He Ning said greedily.

Qiao Mei had earned more than 1 million dollars in one day and she was feeling happy about it. She would treat it as the last meal she made for He Ning. Otherwise, she would not feel good about having fleeced He Ning of so much money.

“Yes, but I’m not going to do any preparation work. You have to catch them yourselves,” Qiao Mei said.

The corners of Huo Gao’s mouth twitched. Was this a hint for him to do it? As if he could ask He Ning to do it. If that was the case, they would not be able to eat even by tomorrow night.

He silently left the house and went to the yard to catch the fish and chicken. He would just endure and persevere over the next few days. Everything would be over soon.

“It’s not an easy life to be your attendant,” Qiao Mei said as she looked out of the window at the busy Huo Gao.

“He’s a money-grubber. It’s fine. But it looks like you’re about to give birth soon. When are you going back?” He Ning said as he looked at Qiao Mei’s stomach.

Qiao Qiang had been listening to the radio on the brick bed, but he immediately opened his eyes and stared intently at He Ning. His gaze was like that of an eagle at the top of a mountain. As soon as He Ning dared to move, Qiao Qiang would tear him apart.

“You still concern yourself with such things. Don’t tell me you’re still targeting me?” Qiao Mei asked as she patted her stomach.

“Whatever happened back then was not my intent. My family members did those things on their own. It won’t happen again. Don’t worry, I just want to know when you’re going back. I don’t suppose you intend to give birth here,” He Ning said.

What He Ning said was indeed what Qiao Mei was thinking. The standard of medical care in the county city was definitely not as advanced as in the capital, so she definitely had to go to the capital to give birth.
