V1.Chapter 9

Deep in the rainforest, a level camp less than three kilometers away from the oak tree.

At this moment, three helicopters and more than a dozen large off-road vehicles that just drove in from outside the rainforest are parked here.

Standing on a high ground, Simon is leading these outsiders who have just arrived to look at the tall sacred tree not far away.

"Everyone, I don't think you will have any doubts about the revival of the sacred tree of our family now?"

"As for why the sacred tree was restored and how it grew to what it is now, I think only God knows."

Simon looked a little inexplicably disappointed, and spoke with a slightly solemn tone.

"By the way, please don't expect to bring instruments to check or obtain the data of the sacred tree this time, because my grandfather will not agree."

"Of course, my clansmen and I will not agree now."

As Simon spoke, he looked around at everyone around him, and gave them a warning look.

Most of these outsiders selectively ignored Simon's warning.

These people all have their own backgrounds, because they have more or less identities in the countries of "West York".

Therefore, these people actually have a natural sense of superiority towards the local aborigines such as Simon.

In the eyes of many people in this group, the indigenous group of Simon is nothing more than a tool for growing medicine for them.

Use it if you need it, if you don't need it...it's just an aboriginal, and it can be easily wiped out at some cost.

However, although these people despise Simon and ignore Simon's warning at all, they will still behave very kindly on the surface under the cloak of civilization.

After all, there is no need to tear your face apart now.

At this moment, most of these people were lost in thought as they looked at the thick oak tree in the distance.

They wondered what caused the magic of the oak tree's 'rebirth'.

At the same time, they are also thinking about how much they can pay to get the Simon family to allow them to get close to the oak tree and realize the "scientific research".

After all, in the world of capital, there is nothing that money cannot solve.

So most of the attitudes shown by the people at this time were to smile gently at Simon, but at the same time they were also beginning to think about another issue.

That is the question of the belief that the oak culture is rooted in the cultures of the Western Conference countries.

Treating the oak tree and the druid culture, the people of the West Alliance have a kind of faith since childhood.

Therefore, when they saw with their own eyes that the oak tree in front of them really recovered and grew into a giant tree of 100 meters in just over a week, some of them more or less had some innate reverence and piety in their hearts.

At the same time, some individuals also developed a strong desire to protect, wanting to protect this miraculous thing.

This kind of psychology, just like the culture of worshiping ancestors in the culture of the Eastern Ryan people, is different.

What's more, in recent years, there has been a "purple moon" phenomenon that is difficult for everyone to explain and control in this world.

Therefore, it is difficult for these people to reach a certain agreement when dealing with the miraculous oak tree and the plant that occupies a strong position in the belief of the Xiyo people.

After all, the most difficult thing to deal with in this world is the issue of belief.

And it is precisely because of this that Simon will notify all the agents in the Bana area as soon as possible.

In order to protect themselves, these people can only be restrained by each other.

Simon didn't know what the people in front of him were thinking, but he had his own clear goal at the moment.

That is Fanny Owen, the speaker of the American Medical Department, the number one power in West Yorkshire on his left.

After a seemingly inadvertent gesture, Simon continued to say to himself:

"Previously, in order to improve the lives of the people as much as possible, our family planted the seeds of the holy medicine on the holy tree. This has displeased the gods."

"I think the death of the sacred tree is also a warning from the gods, warning us of our insatiable greed."

"So, after our family's discussion, our family has decided that we will not make too much human intervention in the future when the holy medicine on the holy tree is produced."

"Therefore, the purpose of contacting you this time is to explain this matter. Of course, it is also necessary to renegotiate the price of the holy medicine."

"What do you guys think?"

Hearing Simon's words, most of the representatives from various countries on this trip showed a smile that they already understood.

"Price? This can of course be renegotiated."

"However, after that, it is very necessary for us to check whether the medicinal properties of the mistletoe produced by the oak tree have changed. If the medicinal ingredients are stronger, it is okay to say, but if the medicinal ingredients are reduced, then it is embarrassing."

A middle-aged man smiled.

His rhetoric was obviously recognized by everyone, but someone came out and made another supplement.

"There are only four oak trees in the world that can produce anti-cancer mistletoe, and I won't say much about the importance of them."

"Boss Simon, you have to know that the reason why you have been able to own this oak tree without being disturbed is because it is protected by our "Keeper of Secrets" alliance in West Yorkshire. People, you should know how to be grateful and content."

"What do you say? Sir Simon?"

The old man's posture and tone were inexplicably arrogant.

But Simon wasn't angry either, he just looked at the old man lightly and said calmly.

"Indeed, Professor Anthony is right. However, I think our family has been planting holy medicine for you for nearly two generations. Is this gratitude enough?"

"What's more, the sacred tree of our family has died once in order to plant the holy medicine. You have sent people to check and keep the photos before this matter. It must not be faked by our family, right?"

"Now that the holy tree has recovered and is showing a miracle warning, if you continue to expand the planting of the holy medicine, aren't you afraid of offending the gods?"

"Crime the gods?" Reed, the representative of the Kingdom of Indes, laughed.

Simon frowned, and everyone else looked at Reed.

Reed smiled at everyone, and at the same time looked at Simon again, and said:

"Everyone is a sensible person, Sir Simon, stop talking nonsense."

"Money is not a problem, we will definitely give you a price that satisfies you, but now that the oak tree has recovered and is even better than before, don't you think it's reasonable for Sir Simon to expand the scale?"

Reed looked around at everyone present, and said in a natural tone.

"Think about it, how many doses of anti-cancer drugs can we produce in a year? The amount is less than 150 people, and it has to be distributed to the twelve countries according to the amount. How can it be possible with such a small amount of production? Can the needs be met?"

"Now that the oak tree has grown for some reason, you may have deep concerns, but in the current world, even unreasonable disasters like the 'Purple Moon' occur from time to time. Could it be that the mutation of a tree has revived, and you still have to worry about it?" Is there anything you can't accept?"

"Don't think of the so-called gods just because it's an oak tree. Sometimes it's the wisest thing to think about."

"Focus on reality is the truth. As for belief, sometimes you can actually make concessions."

"What do you guys think?"
