Chapter 402: Start Making Medicine
Although Lu Yaohua’s IQ was not very good, his flattery skills were quite good. At the very least, Fang Tiancheng was flattered by his praise. Moreover, his disdain for him had also weakened a lot. He was even willing to take the initiative to answer! This was a historic step!
Fang Tiancheng coughed a few times and pretended to be profound. “You? Then there’s really too much for you to learn. If you want to reach my current realm, you still have many years to go! I don’t want to teach you these things for no reason, unless… you have this.”
He made the same gesture with his right hand—rubbing his other fingers with his thumb—money! This was what Lu Yaohua did not have now. He immediately looked troubled and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Although I don’t have it now, I’ll get a considerable amount after this project is over. At that time, I’ll definitely give it to you on a platter. I hope you won’t refuse.”
Such an earnest attitude had won Fang Tiancheng’s favor. He smiled and said, “Of course not! Hahahaha, I like your sensible attitude. I’ll put in as much effort as you pay me, the more the better! I’m sure you won’t lose out by following me!”
Tang Wenyi, who was watching the show from the side, rolled her eyes. With Fang Tiancheng’s personality, he would not be satisfied no matter how much he gave him. At most, he would teach Lu Yaohua some superficial things. He might even fall out with him and turn hostile. She did not know if she should call him naive or stupid.
No wonder he could not defeat Lu Ming!
In the next second, the door of the private room opened. Xu Xiaojing panted heavily and held onto the wall as she said, “The contract has been printed! Mr. Fang, please take a look. If there are no problems, just sign on it. If there’s anything that needs to be changed, we’ll modify it for you immediately.”
Lei Jiacheng handed the document in his hand to Fang Tiancheng. The latter read it carefully and nodded. He said, “No problem. I’ll go back and get my distant relative to sign this equity transfer agreement. Try to develop the medicine as soon as possible in the next few days so that I can give you the green light in time.”
This matter was finally settled. The few people who heard this heaved a sigh of relief. The gathering ended with mutual compliments. Fang Tiancheng could not be out for too long because he was the captain of the old leader’s garrison. After a few drinks, he found an excuse to leave.
As for Tang Wenyi, she took advantage of the fact that the old master was on a business trip to give special instructions to the servants before following Xu Xiaojing and her husband to the Xingwei Pharmaceutical Factory in Shanghai. As Lu Yaohua knew nothing about this, he was deliberately excluded. Fortunately, he had other things to do, so he did not care.
Xingwei Pharmaceutical Factory.
The employees in uniform were nervously getting into production. In the huge space, there was only the sound of machines operating and a few fans desperately cooling down the place. Not long after they stood there, they were sweating profusely! As a result, many of their faces were red.
Tang Wenyi wiped her sweat and couldn’t help but sigh that Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing were really stingy. For the sake of reducing the cost of electricity, they actually installed these few lousy fans. Not only were they yellowed with age, but they also kept making creaking sounds as if they would stop working the next second.
......
She looked at the uniforms of the employees again. Even the fabric used was the cheapest faux fur, and most of it was so dirty that one could not tell its original color. This made her wonder if this couple had given these workers just one set of work clothes.?The pharmaceutical factory is so dirty. Even if the medicine is made according to normal standards, it’d probably make people sick after taking it,?she thought.
She silently struck off Xingwei Medical Group in her heart. She would not take such dirty medicine! Thinking of this, she wiped her sweat and asked the two people beside her, “Don’t you think it’s too hot here? If they work in such conditions, they will definitely suffer from heatstroke, right? Won’t that delay the production?”
“That’s simple! If they can’t do anything, I’ll just fire them. Anyway, they’re just a group of cheap labor. As long as I have money, I can hire a large number of capable workers at any time. I don’t need useless people here! Besides, is this group of people worthy of air-conditioning? Isn’t that a pure waste of my funds?”
Xu Xiaojing said meanly. Even though she was sweating profusely, she felt comforted when she thought of the huge profits she would obtain. To a certain extent, she had maximized the company’s interests. Moreover, if she hadn’t ‘kindly’ recruited these people, they would probably have starved to death long ago.
Lei Jiacheng’s shirt was also wet as time passed. He couldn’t stand it anymore and picked up a small fan to blow at himself. He finally felt cooler. He waved at someone and a short dark-skinned man ran over. He asked obsequiously, “Boss, what can I do for you?”
“How’s the progress with the preventive medicine?”
Preventive medicine?
The dark-skinned man thought for a moment and said, “We’ve already developed the first version. According to your request, other than drugs, we basically used starch. However, the cost is still a little higher than your target. Why don’t we just distribute it? At least it can treat colds.”
They had made it according to cold medicine formula.
Xu Xiaojing frowned and said, “I don’t want to earn that little bit of money by mixing some inferior stuff in. Besides, those fools can’t even deduce the formula we use. In that case, there’s no need to really put the drugs in. It’s a waste of money!”
At the mention of money, she seemed to have been triggered and immediately retorted. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
The dark-skinned man said awkwardly, “We’re using the cheapest medicinal herbs. We can’t think of a way to reduce the cost anymore. The price is already close to the usual medicinal prices. If there’s no other method, I will put product version one into mass production.”
“… Can’t you just get rid of those drugs?”
Tang Wenyi suggested. She looked at the other two people who were still deep in thought and said, “Buy a large amount of low-quality starch to make the pills, add some industrial sugar essence, and finally apply a faint medicinal smell. Wouldn’t that be done? In that case, we can definitely earn several times more than before!”
Several times?
This number instantly agitated Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing.
The dark-skinned man looked at her strangely. Why had he never seen her before? Could it be that she was a guest invited by the boss? Or someone he had hired at the last minute to supervise them in making medicine? He knew that the boss and the lady boss valued this fake medicine, so it was normal for the latter to be the case, but this was still a guess.
Then he asked blankly, “May I know who you are?”
