Chapter 426 Return of Capital
Lin Ting herself had some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and naturally knew that what she said could indeed be done. The key still lay with Shen Zhuyi.
"Since you've already asked, how can I dare to refuse? I still have to teach this person a lesson and find out who is ruining our reputation out there!"
When Chen Zhuyi thought of those people from Xiaoyinghua messing around here in their name and deceiving these poor people, he felt an inexplicable anger in his heart.
Lin Ting beside him breathed a sigh of relief and grinned: "Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter."
She patted her chest and took full responsibility for the matter. After all, she was just a little lazy, but her foundation was still there.
Several people had made up their minds to ignore the old man for half a day. The hurried footsteps outside stopped outside the door several times, and even the sighs became particularly obvious.
Chen Zhuyi thought that the old man could no longer bear it and was about to force his way in.
But unexpectedly, he was very honest and abided by this little rule. It was obviously a shabby little door without a chain, and anyone could get in by pushing it. But he didn't come even until the whole night.
The person who delivered the food saw the old man outside and couldn't help asking: "What do you want to do by staying here?"
"Let me help you deliver these meals. I have something I want to talk to someone inside about." The old man said with a smile as he boldly proposed what he wanted to do.
The meal has been delivered to the door. For Mu Yun's sake, it's just a few steps away, so there's no need to guard too closely.
So the person who delivered the food readily agreed.
The rustling sound was heard again. Lin Ting took the initiative to reach out and took the food, but put it aside and let others eat first.
She herself walked outside.
The old man still wanted to try to struggle, and his eyes fell on Chen Zhuyi several times, with the desire in his eyes so strong that it was about to overflow.
Lin Ting shook her head helplessly and laughed, "You'd better come with me first, lest you say something wrong and upset her, which would make her even more hopeless."
For the sake of the goods in his hands, the old man quickly straightened his posture, nodded repeatedly, and followed Lin Ting out.
"Tell me who is working with you?" Lin Ting asked lazily, supporting her head with one hand, but there was a hint of coldness in her words.
The old man understood more and more that this answer was likely related to his lifeblood. He thought about it carefully before saying softly, "That man said his surname was Tian. You are the ones who collected all the herbs for use."
"The cost price has been pushed very low, and our own profits are extremely slim. Since he suddenly withdrew his investment and left, there is no market for the new batch of medicinal herbs we harvested this year."
"If we don't make money this year, then... starting next year we'll need to leave there and even give up our own farming land."
When talking about these things, the old man's eyes instantly turned red. No matter who it is, it would be unbearable to leave his hometown.
But apart from growing medicinal herbs, they have no other abilities. Apart from working hard in this field, how else can they control their own destiny?
Thinking of this, the old man sighed and clutched his clothes tightly with both hands. His eyes were a little hot at this moment, and he placed almost all his hopes on Lin Ting, as if he regarded her as his savior.
"What if we can't help you?" Lin Ting looked into his eyes and after a slight hesitation, she asked sharply.
They can't be anyone's savior.
Moreover, the collected medicinal herbs were not well preserved in the cargo box. It was obvious that this old man was selling so many things for the first time.
In this case, they should deal with these possible bad news in advance.
As with everything in the world, not everything can go smoothly. The medicinal properties of medicinal materials have been mostly destroyed because of their improper storage methods.
"Then from now on we will boycott you and tell everyone about all the suffering we've endured, so that others will know what kind of bastards you are!"
The old man clenched his fists, and there was even a hint of hatred rising in his words.
The particularly harsh tone of voice further demonstrated that what the old man said was the truth. He did not hesitate to lie just because Lin Ting might be able to help them.
This straightforward attitude actually made Lin Ting appreciate it a little.
After all, the old man's current state may be the prosperity that the people behind the scenes want to see with their own eyes.
While they are being blocked by major countries, they seize the opportunity to discredit them. In the future, it will be difficult for Chinese people to go out, and they may even die without any evidence.
"Then let me tell you, the people who collected the herbs were not ours, do you believe it?" As soon as Lin Ting finished asking, the old man shook his head honestly.
They have seen a lot of people, so how could such a large drug purchasing group lie?
"They couldn't possibly be businessmen from our country. You just chose suicide in desperation because you thought death was the best way to gain our trust, right?"
Lin Ting asked in an orderly manner, and revealed the truth of the matter like peeling off threads of an onion.
The old man nodded. There was nothing to hide about this matter. After all, they often dealt with people from the Tian family and had seen a lot.
"Those people would commit suicide to atone for their sins if they didn't do their job well. We...we've been lucky enough to witness that once or twice."
"We were forced to threaten our lives out of desperation, but you seem to care about our lives. Could it be that... you don't care about the lives of your own brothers, but care more about us strangers?"
He asked calmly, and there was even some confusion in his eyes, as if he was confused about what was happening around him.
"If I have the chance, I will invite you to visit the East and show you the different scenery with your own eyes. Only then will you understand what we are pursuing."
"But this pharmaceutical company is not ours. Given our current living conditions, it's already difficult for us to take care of ourselves, and we really can't offer a helping hand to our neighbors."
Lin Ting's voice was gentle, but it had a firm power that made people believe her words involuntarily.
"Then how do you plan to help us?" Rather than a few nice words, the old man needed a definite solution, and his tone couldn't help but become more urgent.
He holds the lives of so many relatives in his arms. Even if he can make a small profit, it will give them some hope for the future.
