Flora: "Originally, I thought that since I had entered the Forbidden Island, the family would let me do it, but it turned out that I thought too much, and they wouldn't let go of their grip on me...... In their eyes, I could never be from the Osbornes, I would always be just a ticking time bomb. ”

After listening to this, Su Ming nodded with emotion, he began to understand Flora a little.

In the online class of the Investigation Bureau, the first few classes told about the history and political system of this Dongyang Island, which also mentioned the so-called spiritual salt, because this thing is a big hit in the competition between various forces.

Therefore, Flora's words just now did not touch Su Ming's blind spot in knowledge, he fully knew how precious an A-grade spirit salt was.

The so-called spiritual salt is actually a crystalline body containing anomalous properties, which cannot be manufactured, but can only be generated naturally, just like oil and gas.

Moreover, the origin of the spirit salt is unknown, except for its very significant effect, human beings know very little about this crystal.

This crystal is divided into four grades according to the purity, A to D, starting from the B grade, after the ability is taken, it can increase the strength of the relatively strong for a long time.

After taking the A-grade spirit salt, it can temporarily increase the strength and permanently add a trace of abnormality to the ability.

In other words, if an ordinary person can take A-grade spirit salt for a long time, then he may eventually become an anomaly.

The price of the latter is similar to that of gold, also known as "crystal gold", while the price of the former has no fixed value and is often sky-high.

Moreover, the A-grade spirit salt is very special, it cannot be stored in ordinary areas for a long time, once it leaves the place of origin, the internal anomalies will escape at an extremely fast speed, and within 12 hours, it will completely lose all its effects.

In other words, as long as A-grade spiritual salt leaves the place of origin, it is constantly depreciating.

Therefore, no one will buy A-grade spirit salt remotely, and will only come to the origin of spirit salt to take it in person when needed.

If Milo now has to take A-grade spirit salt every day, then you can imagine why the Osborne family is not happy, it is simply burning money.

"How much does your brother's daily medicine cost now?" Su Ming asked.

"Now Milo eats B-grade spiritual salt of very good quality, and it is only a few thousand yuan a day."

"Where is the closest spiritual salt source to Osborne's house?"

"It's Dongyang Island."

"That A-grade spirit salt is transported from Dongyang Island to Osborne's house, how much will it escape halfway?"

"If you're lucky...... One percent can be left. Speaking of the back, Flora's voice also lowered.

Su Ming could fully understand Flora's despair.

Now that Flora wants to cure Milo, there are only two options.

The first is to send Milo to a public island outside of Dongyang Island that can produce spiritual salt, so that Milo can live in the local area and take A-grade spiritual salt directly every day.

And the second way is to buy A-grade spiritual salt from Dongyang Island, and then transport it to Osborne's house, so that Milo can take it immediately.

The latter definitely doesn't have to think about it, no matter how rich the family is, he can't afford to squander it like this, even if the Osborne family is really willing to help her brother, they will definitely send Milo to other spiritual salt producing areas.

"Have you calculated? If the Osborne family sent your brother to the origin of spiritual salt and let him take Grade A spiritual salt every day, how much would it cost? ”

"I have calculated, 20 million a year, the Osborne family can fully afford it, but this money is not at my father's disposal, the family cannot pay so much money for Milo, they have no need to bear such a heavy burden, Milo is just a useless person in the eyes of the family." Flora sighed.

"Twenty million? So cheap? Xia Xiaoyu, who was on the side, was directly shocked when she heard this number.

In Xia Xiaoyu's concept, any number less than eight zeros is basically a fraction, and the financial statements she saw when she used to sneak into the alliance headquarters were tens of billions, as were the accounts of the rich people in those banks.

After a while, Flora adjusted her mood and continued, "But there is still time! Milo doesn't have to use A-grade spirit salt, before Milo's condition deteriorates further, I only need to make achievements on Dongyang Island to make my family recognize me!

When the time comes, I'll ask them to send Milo to the island, and they won't refuse.

But the premise of this is that I must have independent influence on this island, and I cannot be controlled by the Osbornes.

If I were just acting as a puppet of the family on this island, they would ...... It's impossible for them to provide medical coverage for Milo! Only...... Only I can save him! ”

In the end, Flora clenched her fists tightly and carried it with all her might, as if she was a humble person who still forced herself to believe in the existence of hope in a desperate situation, and that expression was pitiful.

Xia Xiaoyu sighed and sighed: "It's not easy for her, with such a younger brother, it will cost almost 20 million in a year, and there is no possibility of curing it at all, what nobleman would spend so much money to treat a person who is destined to die." Not to mention...... Or an illegitimate child. ”

"20 million a year, it seems like a lot." Su Ming asked Xia Xiaoyu, "Is the Osborne family so rich?" Can you afford it? ”

Xia Xiaoyu: "Flora, she was mistaken, the Osborne family is not as rich as she imagined, she probably only checked the public financial reports, and did not investigate the actual situation of the Osborne family at all."

I promise, there is absolutely no family that will throw away 20 million a year for no reason without pain, the Osborne family has so many divisions, and the family has so many children, and Flora wants to throw 20 million at his brother every year, do you think those people will agree?

Hmph, those heirs, each of them may share tens of millions of profits evenly every year, let them take out 20 million to save a waste...... Saving her brother is tantamount to having them cut meat off their bodies and feed them to the dogs, and I can assure you that it is absolutely impossible! ”

"What do you mean?"

"That's right, that's what you think, even if Flora succeeds, her brother will still die. Unless Flora could make a profit of nearly 100 million yuan a year, it would be impossible for her brother to receive such an expensive treatment. ”

"In other words, there is no way to help her." Su Ming muttered.

I didn't expect that Flora was working towards a goal that was simply unattainable, which ...... It's cruel.

"It's not impossible, I can help her! Although it is less efficient to make money on Dongyang Island than outside, two or three hundred million yuan a year can still be obtained casually, anyway, those nobles have money in their accounts. Xia Xiaoyu said.

When Su Ming heard this, he was silent.

"It's easy to make money, but it's still hard to make money without having a negative effect.

You can sneak into the homes of those nobles and transfer their money to my account, but then they will have less money.

Although they will not notice that they are missing money, it is possible that they will not be paid, and then a series of chain reactions will occur.

Then their company will go bankrupt, and then thousands of people will lose their jobs, and then the social environment of this Dongyang Island will be unstable, so that this kind of thing will not happen, right? ”

Hearing this, Xia Xiaoyu fell into deep thought, and she ignored the question.

Su Ming is right, Dongyang Island is not as good as the outside world, the population flow here is limited, and the consumption and labor output are not perfectly integrated with the outside world, she wants to steal money from the nobles, maybe this kind of thing may really happen.

"Of course, this problem is not difficult to solve." Su Ming said.
