Chapter 31: Augustus Is About to Bloom

What was going on in Chicago?

Lynn did not know anything about it.

Whether it was online or in real life, everyone was only focused on one thing and that was the Augustus Cactus flower.

It looked like it was going to bloom.

Everyone was holding their breath.

The cameras were all aimed at Augustus. This was because everything that Lynn had shown so far was too magical.

They naturally had to pay attention to what Lynn said in the afternoon.

Meanwhile, Lynn went to sleep out of boredom.

“Oh my God, Augustus looks very different compared to earlier this afternoon. The flower buds seem to have expanded slightly.”

“Yeah, because the Augustus flower is so rare, I even took a screenshot of it. After comparing it to earlier, it does look different!”

Among the crowd, the most excited one was Master Morey.

He was constantly being surprised throughout the entire day.

“Senior Lynn said that it might bloom at midnight. It’s currently 11 pm.”

Professor Carter said, “It’s impossible for it to bloom. Augustus is a cactus that only blooms twice in its lifetime. This is because it is very difficult for it to absorb nutrients. It takes hundreds of years for it to provide nutrients to its flowers. This is the nature of this plant. And…”

“And what?”

All the netizens wanted to travel through time and space to beat Carter to death.

Every time this botanist spoke, he would gasp for breath.

“I’ll speak on Carter’s behalf.”

Even Carter’s botanist friends could not stand it.

“If it doesn’t bloom, you can also mash it up and make it into a magical perfume. Women who used it will have a special body fragrance for the rest of their lives. But if it blooms completely, it can be used for men instead. In fact, it will become the best tonic for men, and even complement their congenital deficiencies…”

“What do you mean?”

“Everyone is a little dazed…”

“Complement what congenital deficiencies? My congenital body is thin and sickly, can it be restored?”

“This kind of thing is a problem in the world of medicine only, right?”

“Haha, Carter’s friend is just like Carter. He’s panting heavily and is simply exhausted to death.”

The comments took turns to bombard them.

Carter’s friend said, “It’s indeed just as you think.”

“F*ck, here we go again. You have been talking like this. I feel like hitting someone What are you saying?”

“Yeah, a botanist. Is that how you talk?”

Even the members of the program team were twitching their lips.

Carter’s words were already infuriating. However, his friend’s words were even more infuriating.

“Do you really have to make me say something like this?”

In the end, the botanist was scolded so badly that he could not help but type out a string of words.

“Don’t talk nonsense. If you don’t know, just say that you don’t know.”

“Alright, since you want to hear it, then I’ll say it. But the reason why human desires are called desires is that they are painful and cannot be desired. The Augustus does indeed bloom at night. But once it blooms, the entire plant will turn from Yin to Yang. The Yang Augustus can help men to grow twice. The second growth may be in height. It may also affect the most important part of a man. It can remove all wind and evil, and kill all diseases caused by illusion. It could strengthen the muscles and bones in a man. The price of Augustus after blooming would be at least three times more than before.”

Carter’s friend continued explaining, “A hundred years ago, it was exclusive to the royal family of Great Britain. Even His Majesty used it. The ordinary royal family could only watch…”

The people in the live broadcast room were stunned.

Not only that, all the men in the room were breathing rapidly.

They finally understood what the botanist was trying to say.

If it really had such a function, it would be something that any man would go crazy over.

Kaki could not help but type in a comment on the public screen.

“Sir, is there really such a treasure in the world?”

“Of course. Otherwise, why do you think Augustus is so valuable? Did you really think that it’s only valuable because it is on the verge of extinction? There’s always a plant on the verge of extinction, but none of them are as valuable. This is the true value of Augustus.”

“D*mn, my God, is that really the case? Then wouldn’t this thing become a miracle pill?”

“This is too unbelievable.”

“Yeah, I was thinking, if the flower really blooms later, would there be people snatching it away from the program team?”

“There seems to be something wrong with the way you look, Little Rob.”

Kaki also realized some problems.

This was because things like Augustus were really too valuable.

Did celebrities have money? Yes, they did. The money that celebrities earned was something that ordinary people could never earn in their lifetime.

If you suddenly put a billion dollars in front of ordinary people and reveal it in various ways, they will just take the money away. They will not have to bear any serious consequences.

What do you think ordinary people would do if there were a billion dollars in front of them?

It was the same idea. Although the stars were not extremely rich, status was important to them.

What they pursued were often treasures, some of which were truly hard to find in the world.

That was why there were so many celebrities who loved collecting and painting.

Augustus was undoubtedly similar to a billion dollars.

Kaki’s heart skipped a beat. This was more attractive than any treasures he had ever seen.

Kaki was an international director. He had seen all sorts of things. A female star wanted to act in a leading role, but she did not want to spend the night with him.

Lynn however seemed to be indifferent to everything.

Otherwise, Jaime would have gone bankrupt because of a painting.

After thinking about it, Kaki realized the seriousness of the matter.

He was a director with aspirations. With a single ambition, he could make movies that could not be surpassed.

His current ambition was to make a popular variety show around the world.

He did not want the show to suddenly be interrupted because of a small mistake.

However, who could he trust at the moment?

“This thing is too delicate. Professor Carter already said that Augustus is very delicate and difficult to nurture. Although we don’t know whether Augustus will bloom in the end, I think many people in the room will have bad intentions. So we have to be careful,” said Kaki.

Megan looked at Kaki and said, “Director, what do you mean?”

“I mean, of course, we have to record the moment of the flower blooming, but there shouldn’t be anyone in the room.”

Then, before anyone could react, Kaki said, “Cameraman, make sure the camera is in the right position, everyone else out!”
