“Thank you, Mr. Chance. Thank you so much!” Ludovic expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
Stieg walked toward Jared with a look of admiration and bowed. He had lost his prideful demeanor long ago.
“I didn't know that you were a man of magecraft. I truly was blind. Please, Mr. Chance, don't take what I said to heart.”
Jared only smiled and said nothing. He was surprised that Stieg actually knew magecraft.
“Ludovic, I've saved your father. Will you now show me the decamillennium ginseng?” Jared asked.
Ludovic looked troubled as he cast a glance at Frazier.
Frazier quickly said, “Mr. Chance, the decamillennium ginseng isn't here...”
“I know it isn't here. Where is it? Take me to it,” Jared said.
“I-I-It's...” Frazier mumbled hesitantly, unable to string together a proper sentence.
‘Are you going to tell me that you don't have the decamillennium ginseng? Are you going to tell me that you've been lying to me?” Jared questioned.
His question made Frazier leap in shock. He hastily waved his hands and said, “No, no, no. How could we possibly have the courage to lie to you, Mr. Chance? We do have the decamillennium ginseng, but we didn't harvest it. It's still in the Black Blind Forest. Mr. Chance, I'm sure you know that extracting ginseng requires skill and experience. Breaking any part of the ginseng will greatly lower its value. That's why we didn't dare to get it out.”
That was something Jared knew. Ginseng was not something any random person could extract, for they might accidentally ruin it. The Sabine family was not involved in the field of ginseng cultivation, so it was reasonable that they did not dare to harvest it.
“Well then, lead me to it.”
Jared did not know how to get it out either, but if it really was a decamillennium ginseng, he could cultivate beside the ginseng and extract its spiritual energy instead. That way, he would not need to mull over how he should harvest it.
