Chapter 157


    “I–I‘m afraid I can‘t sell it to you. As you know, this is not easy to cultivate. We have spent much time


    and effort on these. Also, we do not have them inrge quantities, so they’re not suitable for purchase.”


    Ben refused.


    “I don‘t need arge quantity. I only need half of what you have here. I want the other half, too, but I will

    leave the rest for now since I will need you to take good care of them. Still, you‘re not allowed to sell


    these to others.”


    “I‘m terribly sorry, but we can‘t do that.” Ben still refused and said in embarrassment.


    “Just name your price,” Jenny said. She saw Lily‘s persistence and figured out that she must have a


    use for them. In addition, grafted red sandalwood was indeed rare. It would be helpful if they could


    obtain all of them. However, the price would likely be on the higher end. “I–It‘s not about money. We put


    much effort into these, but they‘re still iplete. We are still trying to...”


    “You can continue your experiment on the remaining half. I won‘t interfere. I only want half, and I will


    pay in full.” “If so, I‘ll consult with my colleagues first.” Ben was still hesitant, but the offer was pretty


    tempting. However, it was not something he could decide by himself. Jenny was also hesitant as Lily‘s


    offer was unprecedented, and they had not discussed the price yet.


    These red sandalwoods were not cheap. Moreover, they were a unique variety, making their price


    challenging to estimate. Lily‘s apparent intent to purchase all of them would likely make the other party


    increase the price by arge margin. Jenny tugged Lily‘s sleeve as Ben turned away to call someone.


    “Lily, do you want to reconsider? Do we need this many nts? We‘ve never tried these, and we don‘t


    even have a finished product yet. Even if we make an amazing perfume with these, the raw material


    cost is too high. What about the perfume prices? Don‘t you wonder how many can afford it?”


    Jenny‘s consideration made sense. After all, a perfumer‘s creations, such as essential oils and


    perfumes, needed to favor thepany‘s interests.


    “There will be people who are willing to pay for this.” Lily was full of confidence.


    “Even if only a few know how to appreciate this scent, you forgot about the general public. Our brand is


    still fresh in the industry, and most won‘t consider Rebirth a luxury brand,” Jenny continued.


    However, it was not a problem of Rebirth being fresh as there were many known local brands. Stíll,


    most only considered worldwide perfumepanies as luxury brands. Therefore, Jenny’s concerns


    were reasonable.


    “That‘s why we need to make a statement,” Lily said, “If I fail, thepany can deduct my sry for


    purchasing these raw materials.”


    “You are being too impulsive, Lily.” Jenny did not expect her to be so persistent. She was shocked and


    wanted to continue when Ben, who had finished his call, interjected, “Since you‘re insistent on having


    these sandalwoods, we can sell them to you. Still, the price...”


    “We can negotiate the price.”


    Ren happilyughed when he heard Lily‘s sincerity. “Rest assured that I noticed your sincerity. We


    won‘t hike the prices unreasonably, but the cost of cultivating these red sandalwoods is high, so we


    can‘t lower the price too much even if we want to. Instead, we have to slightly raise the price after


    adding the raw material andbor cost.” Ben took a paper and a pen, wrote the price, and handed it


    over. “What do you think about this price?” “T–That‘s too...” Jenny‘s expression changed when she saw


    the six–digit number.
