"Two years ago, Qiu Dafeng's father, Qiu Zhenhai, invested a hundred million to establish a flower base, inviting many floral experts from the Huaxia Science Academy to develop a new variety of flower."

"The new flower developed has blossoms and fragrance similar to cherry blossoms. The difference lies in the lasting and refreshing scent of its petals, which far surpasses that of cherry blossoms, and it is fiery red, hence named Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms."

Tang Yingying explained to Qin Yang.

"What is the use of these Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms, and why is that Japanese woman eyeing them?"

Qin Yang asked.

At that time, when Qiu Dafeng's car was driving behind Qin Yang's, Qin Yang also saw through the rearview mirror a woman sitting in the front passenger seat of Qiu Dafeng's car. However, Qin Yang didn't think much of it. He figured the woman must be the Asakawa Kaori that the Tang family sisters talked about, after all, there is still some difference in appearance between the people from the island nation and the people from Huaxia.

"Perfume made from Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms carries the lingering scent of cherry blossoms, which our Huaxia people don't particularly like, but it is very popular in Japan."

Tang Yingying said.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang nodded slightly. Japan indeed holds cherry blossoms in high regard, treating them as their national flower.

"Within the Qiu family's flower base, many Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms are planted. The Qiu family sold the petals of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms to two domestic perfume companies. Within half a year, the Fire Dance Cherry Blossom perfume developed by these two national companies quickly captured thirty percent of the Japanese market's perfume share."

"The Asakawa Clan is one of the three major clans in Japan. Their family has a leading enterprise in the perfume business. However, in the past six months, their share of the Japanese perfume market has been significantly encroached upon by our two national companies. This time, Asakawa Kaori came to Huaxia to acquire the seeds and cultivation methods of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms."

Tang Yingying said, and when mentioning the Japanese woman, there was also a trace of disgust on Tang Yingying's face.

"I heard that Asakawa Kaori has offered a high price of one hundred million to obtain the seeds and cultivation methods of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms from Qiu Dafeng. Qiu Dafeng seems to be tempted, but the Special Security Department is unlikely to let her succeed."

Beside her, Tang Huanhuan said.

"Isn't this a business matter? Would the country's Special Security Department intervene?"

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"This is not a simple business matter. The new flower Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms is a special resource or, you could say, a flagship product exported to Japan. It is the foundation for the survival of those two national companies."

"If the Japanese obtain the seeds and cultivation methods of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms, with their research capabilities, they could quickly cultivate Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms on their domestic soil. They might even develop new flowers based on the Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms. By then, the advantages of the Fire Dance Cherry Blossom perfume developed by our two national companies would be completely lost, and there's no way they could compete with Japanese domestic companies. At that time, once these two companies go bankrupt, directly or indirectly, thousands of people could lose their jobs."

Tang Yingying's voice carried a hint of gravity.

"What sister says is correct. When Qiu Zhenhai established this flower base, the country provided significant convenience. Those flower experts and the flower base enjoyed national benefits. So, even though the flower base is nominally owned by the Qiu family, the Special Security Department would not allow such behavior that harms national companies and national interests to occur."

Beside her, Tang Huanhuan also said.

The Japanese attempt to acquire the seeds and cultivation methods of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms is by no means a mere market behavior or competition. To some extent, it can be regarded as a seizure of exclusive resources.

Before this, Huaxia also developed a new type of herbal medicine, exported it abroad, and obtained huge profits. Later, due to lax confidentiality, the cultivation method of this new herbal medicine was stolen by Japan. China's export in this new herbal medicine significantly reduced, and now the foreign market is completely dominated by Japan, leading to immeasurable losses.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang nodded slightly, a bit surprised in his heart. These two sisters, though only seventeen or eighteen years old, had a clear understanding of business. As children from a big family, they indeed had remarkable insights.

"So, the bet you mentioned, is it related to these Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms?"

Qin Yang turned his gaze towards the two sisters and asked.

"Yes, if you are confident in winning, we can bet on the Qiu family's flower base. That flower base is now under the name of Qiu Dafeng."

Tang Yingying nodded, her eyes flashing a hint of brilliance.

Qin Yang glanced at Tang Yingying, realizing he underestimated this girl. Her resolve and actions were not ordinary.

"This is not a trivial matter. Are you sure Qiu Dafeng would agree?"

Qin Yang asked.

"I don't know, but Qiu Dafeng has quite the appetite. He might ask for an equivalent offer."

Tang Yingying shook her head, her voice solemn.

"Qin Yang, this bet is based on the premise that you are highly confident in winning. Otherwise, if we lose, such a loss would not be insignificant for our Tang family."

Tang Yingying stared directly at Qin Yang, speaking seriously.

"If you truly can win, and that flower base can be transferred to our Tang family's name, I can guarantee that the Tang family will strictly keep it confidential. We will never hand over its seeds and cultivation methods to foreign entities, and the petals will only be provided to domestic perfume companies to support their development. Additionally, we can offer you a share."

"There's no need for a share. I will definitely win this competition."

Qin Yang shook his head, smiling.

Once his Immortal Orange Wine hit the market, it would sweep across Huaxia and even the entire globe, its potential far surpassing that of Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms. By then, money to him would just be numbers, whereas the Bronze Soldier's puppet was an invaluable treasure to him.

"Alright, then we'll bet with Qiu Dafeng on the flower base. I will now arrange it with him."

Tang Yingying nodded heavily and said, after all, she had personally witnessed Qin Yang's driving skills and trusted him. Otherwise, she wouldn't make such a big bet.

At this moment, Tang Yingying called Qiu Dafeng and talked about the bet.

"How did it go?"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yang asked.

"He said he would reply to me by tomorrow morning."

Tang Yingying replied.

Under the night sky, at the eighteenth floor of the Kyoto Grand Hotel, a table by the window was filled with exquisite Western dishes: French caviar, top-notch foie gras, steak, and so on. However, Asakawa Kaori, who was sitting in her seat, did not move at all.

Her gaze fell on the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window ten meters away, who was making a phone call. The man was none other than Qiu Dafeng.

Behind Asakawa Kaori stood a Japanese woman with a straight posture and expressionless face. Clearly, this Japanese woman was Asakawa Kaori's bodyguard.
