Chapter 589: How Much is it Worth?
Recently, Jiang Yao was not in a hurry to continue her studies of the knowledge found in the Medical System’s library. Due to her overstepping her authority to perform surgeries, the previously locked-away contents were now all hers to consume. Now, she spent her time going through the various information and performing the experiments one after another until she could do them flawlessly.
Remembering her promise to Du Chen, Jiang Yao retrieved the medicine for Old Man Du when she entered the Medical System. She would have it delivered the next day so that Du Chen could receive it as soon as possible.
The medicine was formulated to reduce Old Man Du’s blood pressure and also to provide relief for his liver. Yet, it could only alleviate symptoms, and not actually treating the condition itself.
The late stages of liver cirrhosis was always a difficult issue to solve. Jiang Yao had yet to see a medication or a surgical procedure that could effectively treat the condition.
Perhaps she did not have the necessary qualifications to access them yet, but she did not want to overstep her authority again just to help Old Man Du.
After all, Du Chen only wanted Old Man Du to live for a few more years.
Moreover, Jiang Yao did ask the System Admin if an artificial liver was available for an organ transplant surgery. All she received was the System Admin’s look of scorn.
They were humans from the Future Galaxy, not robots, how could the organs be replaced with artificial ones?
The next day in the afternoon, Jiang Yao was about to leave for Huang Chengjing’s office as she wanted his help to open her stones, but saw the blazing sun shining on mercilessly and decided against it. She dialed Manager Sun up and instructed him to take her place and get things done.
She then spent the entire afternoon chatting with her roommates in the dorm.
Throughout, Huang Chengjing and Manager Sun kept calling Jiang Yao, telling her the excellent contents of her stones.
She did not know much about emeralds, all she knew was the little lecture given by Lu Xingzhi the other day. Listening to Huang Chengjing and Manager Sun almost shouting over the phone, telling her the immense value of the stones, Jiang Yao’s first reaction was to ask, “How much is it worth?”
She was not concerned at all about what the emerald ore inside the stones was capable of becoming. She only wanted to know how much she could sell them for.
She desperately needed money now. Although she had the bank’s one hundred and fifty million loan, she thought having a little more money would do good. After all, she could use it to buy a house in Nanjiang City, which she really needed. It was about time to stop treating Manager Sun’s house as her own personal warehouse.
“It seems like you are planning to sell them off for cash?” Huang Chengjing managed to glean an important piece of information from Jiang Yao. “Aren’t you planning to open a jewelry company too? Why do you want to sell the stones?”
