The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1516

"I just didn't expect to need it so soon."

Commander Miller's eyes gleamed as he listened. He tugged at Silas's sleeve. "Hawk, do me a favor."

Silas didn't even need to ask to know what his old friend was thinking.

"You want some?" Silas chuckled.

Truth be told, he wanted some too. Claire always seemed to have incredible items on hand.

"Claire, is it possible to mass-produce this bug spray?"

"I heard that the company you started with your cousin manufactures some pretty high-end products."

"If you could mass-produce this spray, it would definitely be a huge hit."

Claire, however, was entirely focused on her medical studies.

"Mass production probably isn't feasible right now. The ingredients aren't cheap, and the process isn't exactly simple."

"Some of the herbs are also incredibly hard to find."

"I only make two or three bottles a year just to have on hand."

Claire truly had no intention of handing the formula over to Luminate for retail. It wasn't something the average person needed.

Most people could buy a decent bottle of bug spray at the drugstore for a few bucks.

Why would they spend hundreds of dollars on hers? Everyone's money was hard-earned!

"Could we place a custom order with you, then?"

Seeing Silas hesitate, Commander Miller stepped up and asked Claire directly.

Claire didn't turn him down. "I suppose I could, but my formula genuinely isn't cheap to make."

"Even if I sell it at cost, the price tag will still be high."

She wanted to give him a heads-up so nobody would accuse her of price gouging.

With ingredients this rare, trying to turn a massive profit would make the price astronomical.

"It won't be over a hundred and fifty dollars, will it?" Unlike Silas, who threw money around without blinking, Miller had to worry about the military budget.

If the spray was too expensive, he'd have to try and haggle her down.
