As Wu Zhengda predicted, the next day, the relevant departments issued a statement, publicly releasing the results of sampling tests conducted on various Shanlu milk powder factories, which confirmed that the milk powder did indeed contain the harmful substance melamine.

At the same time, another management department stated that it would deal with the matter seriously and give the public an explanation.

On that day, all shareholders of Shanlu Milk Powder, as well as the heads of each factory, were taken to the police station for questioning.

This scene was captured by netizens and posted online, once again attracting huge attention.

When Zhou Chen's roommates learned about this incident, they all applauded and cheered, saying that it was a good thing the person was caught and that the person responsible should be made to pay the price and be punished by law.

"I heard that the higher-ups are taking this very seriously, and some people will definitely be sentenced to death."

"Those who poison the next generation of our country deserve to die. I think even the death penalty is too lenient."

"If you ask me, the person we should thank the most is the one who first exposed the inspection. If it weren't for that person, who knows how many more families and children would have been harmed by Shanlu Milk Powder. Now netizens are searching for this kind-hearted hero."

“Some people think it was done by Mengniu or Yili, and I guess so too, it must be one of them.”

"I think it's lemon beef."

"I think it's Elizabeth."

While Zhang Hao, Wang Rui, and Li Wei were expressing their feelings, they brought up another current hot topic.

Zhou Chen was not involved.

Instead, he was in the group, communicating with Li Kaile, Xu Dalong, Lu Ye, and others.

Zhou Chen's previous businesses encountered various troubles, resulting in a one-third decrease in sales. Zhou Chen did not hide the fact that Wu Bin was the mastermind behind it, and the core members in the group all knew about it.

The fact that Wu Zhengda and his son Wu Bin are both in jail and under investigation is very good news for everyone.

Li Kaile: "Brother Chen, those parents are very grateful to you for providing them with food, clothing, and shelter. They want to meet you and thank you in person."

Lu Ye: "Brother Chen, all the students and parents that our charity fund has helped, as well as the famous teachers we have signed contracts with, have stood up to refute those news reports that smear the real exam questions and publicly spoke up for us. Sales have hardly been affected."

Xu Dalong: "The two rumor-mongers who were arrested three days ago have had their apology videos played in various branches, and sales of stinky tofu and milk tea have begun to recover."

Wu Yuxue: "The business of two-dollar stores has not been affected much. In addition, several new two-dollar store chains in the major business districts of Yanjing have opened and the sales data is good."

Zhou Chen took in everyone's remarks.

Five days ago, Zhou Chen had already put Wu Yuxue in charge of the two-dollar store business. This was because Li San's abilities were really limited. He could manage a few stores, but once the business scaled up, his management shortcomings would immediately become apparent. Therefore, after the two-dollar store expanded and opened several branches in Yanjing, Zhou Chen immediately transferred Wu Yuxue from the exam paper department and put her in charge of this business on her own.

As for Li San, he didn't discard him after he had served his purpose. He still let him manage the two-yuan stores, but he no longer needed to report to him; he could report directly to Wu Yuxue.

After reading through all the messages from the group, Zhou Chen replied to each one and made arrangements.

He naturally wouldn't meet with the parents who wanted to see him, because he wanted to keep the matter of Wu Zhengda and his son Wu Bin behind his back a secret for a while longer, until it was revealed.

Otherwise, the father and son would definitely launch a frenzied revenge.

Zhou Chen was quite gratified that the children and parents helped by the charity fund were willing to stand up for him; at least they all had a grateful heart and weren't ungrateful.

Sales of stinky tofu and milk tea plummeted due to rumors and smear campaigns, but sales are gradually recovering after several individuals were arrested and public apologies were issued.

Overall, Wu Bin's tricks had a limited impact.

After replying to everyone, Zhou Chen rubbed his temples. Just then, he heard questions from his three roommates.

"Brother Chen, who do you think is the enthusiastic warrior, Mengniu or Yili?"

Zhou Chen paused for a moment, but didn't reveal that the person was actually him. He smiled and said, "It might be Mengniu."

"Haha, as expected, Brother Chen and I made the same choice."

"Rat, you lost."

"Ruizi, don't get cocky. It's just a dinner invitation. Tonight, your brother Hao will pay for everything."

Zhou Chen was both amused and exasperated when he saw the two of them betting on him.

Li Wei chuckled to himself.

"Brother Wei, how's things going with Agent Xu lately?"

"Ah... Brother Chen, it's not what you think. We're friends, just ordinary friends..."

A flicker of panic crossed Li Wei's eyes.

Seeing Wei Ge's innocent, naive demeanor, Zhou Chen stopped teasing him. It seemed that Wei Ge still lacked confidence when facing Xu Yao.

All his lack of confidence stems from not having enough money. Especially when facing a rich and beautiful woman like Xu Yao, the pressure on Wei Ge will only increase. But it doesn't matter, once Wei Ge has made enough money, he will become confident.

Snap!

"Damn it!"

Zhou Chuan, who was sitting in an internet cafe surfing the internet, slammed his fist on the table. The endless reports and comments from netizens on the screen made his face extremely gloomy.

Due to official intervention, the Shanlu milk powder factory was shut down, and all sorts of news pointed to one thing: the Shanlu milk powder factory was facing bankruptcy.

What will happen to all the milk powder he stockpiled?

Will they still be able to sell?

Thinking of this, Zhou Chuan lost interest in going online, immediately logged off, and rushed to his rented room.

After rushing back to the rented room,

Zhou Chuan told Zhou Ling all the information he found online.

"Third sister, what should we do? Not only will we not make any profit on those milk powders, but they might also become a burden on our hands."

Zhou Chuan looked miserable.

Why is he so unlucky? If he had just won one bet, he could have turned the tables and won big. Instead, he was slapped in the face again.

Why does life always seem to be against him?

Zhou Ling was also at a loss. If the Shanlu Milk Powder Factory was going to go bankrupt, who would still buy this brand of milk powder? Not to mention, the official conclusion was that the milk powder contained toxic substances.

no!

She couldn't let those milk powders sit unsold; they represented a lot of money, several thousand yuan.

"Fourth brother, we have to find a way to sell this milk powder immediately, even if it's at half price. We can't delay any longer!"

Zhou Ling immediately made a decision to find someone to take over the losses and try to recover as much as possible.

Zhou Chuan had no objections; he just wanted to minimize his losses and wasn't even thinking about making money anymore.

Immediately, the siblings moved boxes of milk powder downstairs, trying to find someone to take over their losses.

At this moment,

Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua, a couple dozens of miles away, felt the same way as the siblings, or more accurately, even worse.
