Chiang Xiao was actually startled by their reaction.
Uncle Huo was already excitedly saying, "Miss Xiao Chiang! If you can revive the Ancient Tea Tree, you can take as much tea powder as you like, and I'll give it to you for free!"
Uh...
For free?
Chiang Xiao thought to herself, do you think my tea cake business won't take off, that I'll just be dabbling and won't be buying much stock?
Do you have any idea how popular matcha will be in the future?
Chiang Xiao's mind quickly started to whirl again.
"Tea powder for free isn't necessary; how about I use reviving the tea tree as my investment into your Tea Garden Villa, and in return, I get a 10% share of the profits from the sale of the tea leaves from the Ancient Tea Tree? What do you think?"
Although reviving this tree amounted to doing the Huo Family a huge favor, she didn't want the profits from any other tea, just from this Ancient Tea Tree.
This way, it really wouldn't count as taking advantage of the Huo Family.
