Chapter 1132
Late at night, at the foot of Mount Golmin, Jeffrey was wrapped in a thick jacket made out of
deerskin, dragging his elderly father, Jordan, behind him as they walked out of the mountain, s
The temperature at Mount Golmin had dropped drastically recently, with its temperature reaching
the lowest point of about minus thirty degrees during the night. 1
Under any normal circumstances, they would both be unwilling to step out of the house even if it
would kill them. However, because of the clear requirements, they had to go into the mountain to
gather ginseng. 6
They would only be able to get some food, medicine, and also the kerosene and firewood that they
needed for heating in exchange for the ginseng that they gathered. 9
After all, the weather was so cold and the energy consumption for the heater was very high every
day. Picking up firewood alone would not be sufficient for them and it would have to be matched
with a sufficient amount of kerosene too. 1
After going into the mountain for the whole day, the father and son only managed to dig about six to
seven ginseng roots today. This amount of ginseng would only be enough for them to exchange it
for some food tomorrow. 6
Jordan was tired and hungry and his lips were turning purple from the cold.
Although Jeffrey was physically fitterpared to his father, he could still feel the toll it had taken
on his body.
Now that snow was already umting on Mount Golmin, it was very difficult for them to walk
deep into the mountain as it would require a great amount o f physical strength. However, since theMaterial ? of N?velDrama.Org.
quantity of the ginseng that they could collect was decreasing, this meant that they had to go
deeper and deeper into the mountain each time. 1
They could onlye back in the middle of the night now but in a few days, they would probably
have to spend the night on the mountain.
Jordan stretched out his hand before grabbing a handful of snow and tucking it into his mouth. His
lips were chapped and he opened his mouth to say," Son, if we have to continue going on like this,
I''m afraid that I won''t be able to survive this winter. After I die, you have to continue living strong and
surviving on your own, and find a way to save the Weaver family''s lineage. You have to look for an
opportunity t o go back to Aurous Hill and take back Weaver Pharmaceutical. That would be perfect
then." 9
Jeffrey panted heavily before he said, "Dad, don''t say that. Although the conditions on Mount
Golmin are much tougher, I feel that your body is much fitter and healthier than it used to be in the
past." 6
Jeffrey sighed as he said, "You did not take good care o f your body in the past. You exhausted your
vigor and vitality in your early years. Moreover, you never used t o exercise and you barely even
walked. That''s why your physical health was getting worse day by day. However, aftering to
Mount Golmin, you have to g o into the mountain to gather ginseng every day. I suppose this is why
your body is also getting stronger and fitter now. If you continue sticking to this routine, I believe that
you''ll be able to live a very long life then!" i
Jordan sat down on the thick snow and he was filled with emotions as he said, "What you''ve said
makes sense too. I really do feel that my body is much stronger than it had been in the past. I used
to breathe heavily and pant after taking a few steps in the past. Now, I can even go into the
mountain to gather ginseng for an entire day."
At this point, Jordan sighed as he said, "This is all because I did not know how to cherish and take
care o f my body when I was young. I overworked my body even when I was young. You should
take this as a lesson and not follow in my footsteps."
Jeffrey simply sat down beside his father before he took out the torchlight in his hand as he shed
it around the snow and trees around him. After that, he said depressingly, "Even if I had wanted to
follow in your footsteps, I won''t have the chance to do so. There isn''t even a single female bear
hibernating on this mountain, so where am I supposed to find a woman so I can overwork my body
too?" 9
Jordan could not help butughed when he heard his son’s words.
When it came to women, his son really could not bepared to him at all.
When he was young, he had really gone around womanizing everywhere. The number of women
that h e had fooled around with was probably even more than the number of women that his son
had ever met. 1
As he thought about it, Jordan felt that he had not lived his life in vain.
Jeffrey could not help but sigh as he thought about women. "Speaking of women, I do yearn for
Wendy from the Wilson family in Aurous Hill. I don''t know if I’ll ever have the opportunity to go back
to Aurous Hill again in this lifetime. If I can go back, I must find her and have a good time with her
then." 5
Jordan patted him gently on his shoulder before he encouraged him and said, "I believe that both of
us father and son will definitely have the opportunity to change our fates!"
