Chapter: 234
They were really down on their luck!
“This fellow really hit the jackpot! I can’t believe he really found a Blood Luminianth Root!”
“I know right? With a treasure like that, he won’t have to worry for the rest of his life!”
“Damn it! If I knew there was a treasure hiding in that piece of wood, I would’ve bought it myself!”
With the Blood Luminianth Root’s debut, the onlookers immediately started talking.
All of them looked at Dustin with a gaze full of envy.
“Fuck! This guy really struck gold!” James clenched his teeth, eyes filled with rage.
“That’s odd, how did he know that there was a treasure hiding inside? Dahlia was more puzzled than shocked.
Everyone had no clue, even Mr. Walter.
And yet, Dustin managed to notice.
“Is it really luck? Or was there another reason?” She wondered.
“Dustin, we really won big this time! But, how did you guess that a Blood Luminianth Root was hiding in there?”
Ruth asked the question that was on everyone’s minds.
“To be honest, I wasn’t sure as well. It was purely a guess.” Dustin said humbly.
“A guess? You’re saying that you had no idea there was a Blood Luminianth Root inside? And you still used five million dollars to gamble?” Ruth was a little stunned.
“You can put it that way.” Dustin nodded.
“I really don’t know whether to call you stupid or lucky.” Ruth gave him an incredulous look.
“I admit that it was indeed a big gamble, but my bet was right. When something goes wrong, there is usually a good reason behind it. There must be a reason for a long–living Luminianth Root to wilt. I read about something similar from a book before.” Dustin smiled faintly.
“You’re a genius! You really enlightened me today!” Ruth gave him a thumbs up.
Her respect for him immediately grew tenfold.
“Wait! This Blood Luminianth Root is mine!” Florence suddenly exclaimed.
She reached out to snatch the root but luckily was stopped by Ruth.
“Hey! What are you doing?!”
“I’m not selling it! I’ll return your five million dollars. I’m not selling this Blood Luminianth Root anymore!” Florence was in a panic.
This was worth ten billion dollars. How could she give it to someone else so easily?
