An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Chapter 1331

Chapter 1331: A Full of Deamd One hour later, at the Dragon Phoenix Teahouse. Sebastian sat on the second floor

by the window, sipping tea and watching the bustling crowd on the street. There were a dozen or so tables

occupied in the teahouse, but compared to its usual noisy atmosphere, today it felt somewhat dull. All the guests

were immersed in their tea, with no exchange of words. “Mr. Sebastian, that young man has arrived.” At this

moment, Lenny, standing behind, suddenly pointed downward. Sebastian lowered his head and saw Dustin strolling

along with the crowd, appearing carefree and relaxed, showing no signs of pressure. “Humph! He actually dares to

venture alone? It seems like a new calf isn’t afraid of the tiger!” Sebastian sneered. He then picked up his teacup

and drank it all in one gulp. “Thud, thud, thud…” Soon, a muffled sound of footsteps approached. Dustin walked up

the stairs unimpeded and, after scanning the area, saw Sebastian and the others. He directly sat down at the table

opposite them. “Sebastian Stratford, we meet again.” Dustin smiled and poured himself a cup of tea. “Mr. Rhys, I

heard from Lenny that you want to discuss business with me. I’m curious about what you want to talk about?”

Sebastian smiled politely. As the butler of the Stratford family, he was not a simple-minded person. There were

some matters that, if they could be resolved with money, would not necessarily lead to conflict. “Of course, it’s

about the formula for the Jade Dew Ointment,” Dustin cut to the chase. “Oh?” Sebastian raised an eyebrow and

smiled. “It seems that Mr. Rhys has thought it through. Please, tell me, how much money are you asking for? Name

your price, as long as it’s not too outrageous, I’ll do my best to accommodate.” “I don’t want money. I just want you

to follow the prescription and procure some herbs for me.” Dustin said as he took out a prescription and placed it

on the table, then pushed it over. The prescription listed various precious medicinal herbs, totaling over twenty

different types, including Ice Heart Lotus, Dragon’s Blood Ginseng, and Golden Marrow Jade. The reason for listing

so many was to divert attention. The Stratford family is a renowned medical clan with a century of heritage,

extensive connections, and influence throughout the country. They are not to be compared with a small

establishment like the Healwell Medical Center. If we talk about the entire southern city, no one can gather the

three main ingredients for the Bone Cleansing Pill as quickly as the Stratford family. This is also the primary reason

for Dustin to negotiate with them. “Let me see which herbs are listed,” Sebastian picked up the prescription and

examined it closely. His smile instantly froze, and his brow furrowed, “Mr. Rhys, most of these herbs on your list are

top-grade spiritual herbs, and some are even supreme-grade spiritual herbs. Each plant is worth a fortune. Are you

asking me to gather them all? Isn’t that asking the impossible?” “Mr. Sebastian, your Stratford family has a century-

long legacy and unparalleled influence in the field of medicine. These herbs should not be a problem for you,

right?” Dustin raised his teacup and took a sip, the sweet aroma filling the air. Delicious tea! “Not a problem?”

Sebastian’s eye twitched as he tried to control his anger. “Mr. Rhys, your appetite is simply too grand. The value of

these herbs far exceeds that of the Jade Dew Ointment formula. I cannot meet your demands.” With that, he

pushed the prescription back. Damn it! Gathering these herbs would likely deplete half of the Stratford family’s

wealth. This guy was truly asking for the moon. “Mr. Sebastian, the Jade Dew Ointment formula is a priceless

treasure passed down in my family. Swapping it for a few herbs, I believe, is more than fair,” Dustin said. “A few

herbs? These are clearly two to three dozen spiritual herbs!” Sebastian’s tone involuntarily rose. If they were

ordinary herbs, it wouldn’t be a problem no matter how many there were. Unfortunately, these were spiritual

herbs, and not just any, but top-grade and supreme-grade spiritual herbs. Even one of them would be enough to

make an ordinary person wealthy for a lifetime.
