It's the 21st century, how come there are still people selling dragon eggs?

Chapter 36: The third dragon egg has been sold! The dragon chosen is…

After Xia Minghan finished speaking, the entire living room fell into a deathly silence that lasted for several minutes.

Ling Man looked at Xia Minghan with a surprised expression.

I was just giving you face by coming to see what you were doing, are you serious? Dragon egg resources?

Hong Zhixuan's thinking was simple.

"No, Weiwei said her dad was fooled by Yu Xiao, how come my mom is being fooled too?"

Hong Zhixuan's eyes widened in astonishment.

Yu Xiao's thinking was quite simple.

She gave Xia Minghan a look that said, "You really understand me."

"Mr. Ling, I'm serious about selling dragon eggs."

"My dragon eggs are not only big and round, but males who buy them can become dragon riders, and females who buy them... well, never mind."

Smiling at Ling Man, Yu Xiao spoke earnestly.

He paused after saying that.

Just as Ling Man was about to say something.

"If Mr. Ling wants something cute, I have fairy dragons and flower dragons. If Mr. Ling wants something strange, I have two-headed pterosaurs or even nine-headed dragons. Of course, I also have some domineering ones."

Yu Xiao's expression turned serious, and he spoke very earnestly.

Ling Man: ?

Ling Man, who was already suspicious, became even more suspicious after seeing Yu Xiao's serious expression.

Why are you taking this dragon egg thing so seriously?

I hesitated for a moment.

"Mr. Xia, I'm giving you face, but not..."

Turning to look at Xia Minghan, Ling Man spoke with great dissatisfaction.

However, before Ling Man could speak...

"President Ling, Mr. Yu Xiao is incredibly capable. Trust me, would I, Old Xia, do such a deceitful thing?"

Xia Minghan interrupted him directly.

Seeing Xia Minghan say this.

"this……"

Ling Man glanced at Yu Xiao, who still had a smile on his face, and felt a little conflicted.

Her intuition told her that dragon eggs were utter nonsense, and one of her friends had spent millions to buy an egg, which he had been trying to hatch for three years without success, and he was filled with regret.

But Xia Minghan spoke with such seriousness and conviction…

He hesitated for a long time.

"Alright, how much is a dragon egg?"

Ling Man turned her head to look at Yu Xiao.

Mingyue Group wants to cooperate with Jianning Group. Spending hundreds of thousands or even millions to save face is acceptable, right?

2000.

Yu Xiao held up two fingers.

...

Although Yu Xiao felt that he had already taken 1500 million from Xia Minghan, it was somewhat "unethical" to take 1000 million from Ling Man alone.

But Ling Man was shocked when she heard the number.

"2000? Why don't you just rob someone?"

With her pupils dilating violently, Ling Man stood up from the sofa.

I can spend 100 million, just to give a billionaire some face.

2000?

Faced with Ling Man's questioning, Yu Xiao did not speak, but instead glanced at Xia Minghan standing next to him.

After meeting Yu Xiao's gaze.

Although Xia Minghan was also very puzzled, "They sold it to me for 300 million, and now they've raised the price to 2000 million?"

But he hesitated for a moment.

"Mr. Ling, 2000 million is definitely a good deal."

"The buyer of the first dragon egg was this..."

Xia Minghan looked at Ling Man, and at the end, he shut his mouth and pointed to the ceiling with his index finger.

"?"

Ling Man was stunned.

As a businesswoman, she knew what Xia Minghan meant by his words and actions.

That would be a big problem.

If a country endorses something, its value increases hundreds of times.

Just as Xia Minghan had thought at the time.

Even if you lose tens of millions, if you can establish a connection with someone in power, you'll consider it a huge gain.

His expression changed several minutes later.

"Mr. Xia, we've known each other for many years, and I trust your character, but I still want to confirm, is what you're saying true?"

Ling Man took a deep breath and stared intently at Xia Minghan.

Xia Minghan remained silent.

He simply took out his phone and showed the screen to Ling Man.

After seeing the name of a high-ranking official in law enforcement on Xia Minghan's phone.

"Okay, 2000 million. I'll have the finance department transfer the money tomorrow. If you need it urgently, I can call someone to transfer the money now."

Ling Man looked at Yu Xiao and spoke with a firm expression.

Upon hearing this...

"With Uncle Xia here, I naturally trust President Ling."

Yu Xiao waved his hand dismissively and spoke.

...

For Xiao, it was a bit difficult to understand what these capitalists were thinking.

Ling Man may not trust him, but she definitely trusts Xia Minghan.

However, when choosing which dragon egg to sell...

"Which dragon should I choose?"

"Despite being the ruler of the abyss, the Shadow Dragon is mischievous; despite being an Eastern divine dragon, the Golden Dragon is arrogant..."

Yu Xiao hesitated.

If a third arrogant or other tsundere appears... Yu Xiao certainly doesn't want the 'Battle of Two Dragons' to escalate into a 'Battle of Three Dragons'...

I hesitated for a moment.

"Let's do it the other way around. According to what I've researched, gentle dragons are usually..."

Yu Xiao made up his mind.

Then.

"Please wait a moment, everyone. I'll go to the car and get the dragon egg now."

Turning to look at Xia Minghan and Ling Man, Yu Xiao waved his hand.

Ling Man naturally had no objection to Yu Xiao's words.

Anyway, Xia Minghan is the guarantor.

However, there was one thing that puzzled Ling Man.

Ling Man glanced at Yu Xiao, who had walked to the entrance, and then turned her head away.

"Daughter, why have you been acting so strangely since just now?"

"Why do I always feel like you have something to say but are afraid to say it? Are you having some kind of dilemma?"

Looking at Hong Zhixuan standing behind her, Ling Man asked her kindly.

"I……"

Hong Zhixuan stammered out a single word.

However, after seeing Yu Xiao open the door and look in their direction, they quickly shut their mouths.

What are you saying? That I think it's a scam, but I'm afraid Yu Xiao will kill me to cover it up?

That damned Yu Xiao, 2000 million!

...

For someone like Hung Chih-hsuan, a highly educated person in the 21st century, it's hard to believe in the supernatural unless one sees it with their own eyes.

Are you saying that everything I learned in my nine years of compulsory education and seven years of higher education was fake?

In fact, Ling Man didn't believe it either.

But Ling Man is a businesswoman, and she is more concerned with profits.

However, what happened to everyone else was none of Yu Xiao's concern. All he knew was that a third sucker for sustainable development had appeared.

Are you sure you want to purchase the Faerie Dragon egg?

Purchase successful! Please treat the Fairy Dragon well!

"? Is this the ability of an elf dragon?"

Looking at the pop-up data panel, Yu Xiao blinked.

The elven dragon created the elven race, and then became the ruler of the elven dragons—doesn't that mean...?

"I wouldn't be able to control the elves, would I?"

Yu Xiao's expression was a mixture of curiosity and horror.

Just then.

The Shadow Dragon was overjoyed to sense that a third of its kind was about to hatch.

[To show the highest respect of the True Dragon Clan, and also to ensure that you will not neglect him, the Shadow Dragon took a large bite out of a fragment from the dragon egg.]

The Golden Dragon wasn't as happy as the Shadow Dragon; instead, it was worried that you might stop paying attention to it because of the hatching of the Fairy Dragon.

After much deliberation, the Golden Dragon calmly turned its head to the side, indicating its trust in its ruler; at the same time, it secretly nibbled on a fragment from inside the dragon egg.
