Chapter 17 Chapter 17: Ally Perrance sat down, like a jade bamboo...
Arnold was called over. When he opened the door of Hoss's house, he looked at Hugh Wen, who was sitting on the sofa scratching his head in frustration.
"Well."
Arnold suddenly felt that he had come at the wrong time, so he said hello.
"Good day, Your Excellency Xu Wen."
Xiu Wen looked up, apparently lost in thought. When he heard the voice, he stood up as if suddenly awakened and responded politely:
"Hello. Lieutenant Arnold, are you here to see me? I'm in the room."
Arnold: Why do I feel like this male insect is the other owner of this house?
"Okay, thank you very much, Your Excellency." Arnold said respectfully and knocked on Hoss's door.
When Huos went out in a wheelchair, Xu Wen had already returned to the room. Huos didn't know whether he should be relieved or worried. In any case, they didn't see each other, so at least he avoided an embarrassing situation.
——
A brightly lit high-end business box.
Arnold opened the door of the box and Hoss went in in a wheelchair.
Inside the box, there was a sub-female, dressed in a well-tailored white suit, exuding an indescribable elegance.
The sub-female's hands were gently placed in front of her abdomen, her fingertips lightly tapping each other. She was wearing a pair of flawless white gloves. Her gold-rimmed glasses were gently placed on her straight nose, revealing a pair of light blue eyes behind the lenses.
The most eye-catching thing is his long silver hair, which looks like the shimmering lake under the moonlight, mysterious and noble.
The silver color complements his fair skin, making him look like an elf far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
——is the CEO and director of RWE Group, Perlans.
Behind the Rhine Group is the aristocratic power. Perrance Carlisle was born into the Carlisle family, one of the four major noble families on the main star. However, the Carlisle family has weak kinship and each family lives its own life. Perrance founded the Rhine Group very early and took power through personal financing.
"Captain, long time no see. Congratulations on your promotion."
Perrance stood up and saluted Hoss who was sitting in the wheelchair. His voice was cold and clear, and when he smiled slightly, it sounded like a wind chime, so clear and crisp.
He lowered his head and said, "I believe the Legion Commander wants to see me this time because there must be something important. I just wonder how the matter I asked of him last time is progressing now?"
Talking about this incident, Hoss actually felt great admiration for the businessman.
The two of them formed an alliance because of a potion.
It is now generally believed that the rigidity of female insects is incurable and can only be alleviated and treated by the pheromones of male insects. Without the comfort of the male insects, even expensive therapeutic drugs and equipment can only achieve minimal relief, and may even cost a life.
The treatment of rigidity is actually a huge industrial chain. Even if the effect is minimal, there are still countless female insects who are willing to spend all their money to pursue a little effect, just to be less painful.
And Perlans wanted to break this huge chain of interests. As for why he approached Hoss, one reason was that he wanted to use the armed forces of the First Legion for subsequent support, and the other was that if he went through the Drug Administration, it would definitely not work. The guys in the Drug Administration would not sit idly by and watch the star coins in their hands be handed over to others. So he could only go through the military route. Although it was also full of difficulties, at least there was still some hope.
Hoss: "Sit down. Your proposal needs to be greenlit. It's already passed the initial review, and only the re-review remains. But it's just touching the cake, which is no easy task. Sir Perrance, are you really not afraid that your business empire will be burned to the ground?"
Hearing this, Perrance sat down, his chin supported by his bamboo-like hand, his eyes lowered like icy branches, and he smiled:
"My business empire is unimportant. I can give up everything I have, but I must do this one thing, no matter the cost."
Hoss: "To be honest, success may not be guaranteed."
Perrance: "Maybe I won't be able to succeed while I'm alive, but one day, there will be results."
Hoss whispered, "Is it really worth it? Will you regret it?"
Perrance smiled again, "Nothing is unworthy."
Hoss suddenly remembered: "Your company shouldn't focus on pharmaceuticals, right? Who are you collaborating with this time?"
The Rhine Group does have a medical industry, but its main focus is still finance.
"Xingzhou's president, Jin Er."
Polans slowly took out a business card from his pocket with his index and middle fingers. It was Jin'er's business card. He clicked it, pushed it on the table and handed it to Hoss.
"Although he's a male insect, he's quite cooperative. As for the potion's maker, you'll never guess who it is."
Huos frowned, his dark golden eyes looking a bit fierce. He obviously didn't like this kind of suspenseful question: "Who is it?"
Perrance suddenly said, "His Highness has recently been granted marriage by His Majesty the Insect Emperor. Although the wedding hasn't taken place yet, the news is spreading very quickly."
"Of course, this matter is well known to everyone. Does it have anything to do with the potion?" Hoss was puzzled.
"The male insect who was granted marriage is Xingzhou Company's top pharmaceutical genius. Tell me, did His Majesty the Insect Emperor do this intentionally or unintentionally?"
Perrance hinted.
"What?" Huos guessed immediately, "You mean to say that His Majesty the Insect Emperor already knows about the potion?"
Perrance just wore that smile:
"Perhaps, but the most difficult part isn't making the potion; it's how to market it. If we touch the nobles' cake, I'm afraid there will be countless casualties."
"A drug that can alleviate female rigor mortis is incredibly rare. Any news of it would be like a bombshell. Rigor mortis itself is a massive industry chain, with countless groups involved, and countless businessmen and politicians behind the scenes."
Hoss said with a cold face: "Yeah, those guys are as disgusting as flies."
Seeing this, Perrance smiled quietly.
"But you're feeling much better now. Have you used the medicine?" Hoss asked, looking at Perrance's face which was not as pale as before.
As everyone knows, Pearlance Carlyle is a sickly child. Doctors have predicted since birth that he would not live past the age of thirty. However, he has stubbornly lived past the age of thirty, with a major illness every ten days and a minor illness every five days. He is like ashes that cannot be extinguished even with ice water, and there are still flickers of flames.
Among the many symptoms, the most serious one is pheromone rejection. Perlans can hardly accept the pheromones of any male insect, to the point that she will vomit when she smells them. The doctor said that only a genetically specific male insect can truly match Perlans, and he doesn't even know if he can meet one in this lifetime.
This resulted in Perlans's rigidity being particularly severe, and he happened to be the type that was extremely resistant to drugs, with the drug's efficacy conversion rate being less than one percent.
It is almost incurable.
During the previous video call, Hoss had the impression that Perlans's face was almost as pale as paper, like cold snow on a crumbling and withered branch.
When we meet now, it seems as if he has suddenly come alive.
"No."
Perrance shook his head.
"My body rejects the drug. I don't use that drug, and I can't use that drug. But I found a male insect pheromone that I can accept."
"Then the matching degree should be above 90%, right?" Hoss was a little surprised.
"Yes, 98%, they are almost destined to be together." Pearlance lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes hid the look in his eyes.
"Congratulations," Hoss said.
"Thank you." Perrance smiled.
But in fact, there was nothing to congratulate. The relationship between him and the male insect was just a contract.
In this world, you can buy most things with money, and as it happens, he happens to be extremely rich.
Not wanting to discuss further, Perrance knew that Hoss had come alone this time because he must have something important to discuss, so he got straight to the point and asked:
"I wonder if the Legion Commander wants me here this time because of something?"
Huo Si then spoke: "This time, I would like to borrow your intelligence network. I hope you can help me investigate some things."
"It's my pleasure," Perrance smiled.
He is not a cheerful person, but the business world is like a battlefield, and after so much practice, he has been able to put on a fake smile.
It's just using the intelligence network. This little thing can't be considered a favor.
"Yesterday at the First Hospital, an internet celebrity, Xu Bufan, unexpectedly escaped from the First Hospital alone, and even the surveillance cameras didn't leave any trace."
Hoss said simply.
"How bizarre," Perrance said softly. "The First Hospital is a dedicated military hospital, and the security is like an iron fence. Xu Bufan must be the Legion Commander's ex-fiancé, right? How could a male insect escape so easily?"
"So, there must be other forces behind the scenes helping Xu Bufan." Huos said in a low voice.
"Okay, but if it's because of this, then my intelligence network is no longer needed. It was previously the number one trending search on the entire Internet. In fact, Xu Bufan's information is already in my hands."
Having said that, Perrance reached out and picked up the teacup, bringing it close to his softly contoured lips. He took a sip, his every move revealing the aristocratic elegance etched in his bones.
"Please go ahead." Hoss looked at Perrance.
But then he heard Perrance lightly drop a heavy thunder: "It's the Second Prince, Amiya."
"What?"
Hoss was indeed surprised.
Second Prince Amiya, compared to the First Prince Hades, to whom Hoss is loyal, the Second Prince has a very low presence, because he is a sub-female, unlike the First Prince, who is a military female and can charge into battle and enjoy glory.
"Surprised, huh?"
Perrance looked at Hoss.
"The Second Prince is not as harmless as he appears. He should not be underestimated. If you are careless and take it lightly, you might be bitten by a venomous snake."
Having said that, Perrance lowered his eyes, a dark light surging in his eyes.
The Second Prince, Amiya, is indeed not in the limelight, but this is only relative to the First Prince. No one in the royal family is a good person. Pearlance has learned his lesson recently and suffered a lot of losses.
It was obvious that the Second Prince was like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to snatch some of the rights to the potion from them, but there was one thing that Perlance had never understood.
Jin'er of Xingzhou has clearly married the Second Prince. If the Second Prince really wants to intervene, wouldn't it be more convenient to negotiate with his own lord? Why does he have to interfere?
But now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to cheer up and deal with it.
