"No need, we can just have people test the enhanced version when we open for business."
The effect would be immediate and would definitely be astonishing. Han Luoxue believed in the two of them.
"Alright, I'll have them promote it. Let's set a date for the grand opening, and it'll definitely be a huge hit!"
As for that Fatty Liu, they'd rather not make a move than let him. But if he really dares to attack them, they wouldn't mind eliminating a menace for the people.
...
"So, is that shop really closed down?"
When Fatty Liu heard his men say that the clinic had closed down, he sneered. Those out-of-towners were really overestimating themselves. In Yancheng, no one dared to go against him.
"Yes, young master. But I heard that the shop has indeed changed hands, and that Madam Han has taken it over."
"What exactly are they planning to do? I haven't found out yet. I heard that old man Li is still in the shop."
"What did you say? That old man Li is still in the shop? Didn't he already sell the shop?"
"Wait a minute, what is that woman trying to do? Could she be trying to keep Old Man Li here?"
Fatty Liu felt it was unlikely; who would take over a shop and keep the original owner?
"Have those guys keep an eye on things. If they dare to open the door, make a scene!"
"I refuse to believe that anyone in Yancheng can make money right under my nose!"
Several of his men chuckled after hearing this: "Young Master, those outsiders have no idea how powerful you are. Once they find out, they'll regret it immensely. We'll definitely find out how much silver they spent, and then we can take over that shop for half the price!"
Fatty Liu smiled smugly: "You know what, that woman is really beautiful, it's just a pity..."
This Fatty Liu doesn't have a very good reputation in Yancheng. Women he sets his sights on rarely escape his grasp.
However, he didn't like pregnant women, even though that woman was indeed beautiful!
"Young master, based on my observation, that lady should be giving birth in a few days. After she gives birth..."
The man chuckled, and Fatty Liu's expression changed, his eyes turning cold: "What do you mean, kid?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped the man across the face. The man was stunned by the blow. He had only been following his master's words, so why was he being hit?
"Do you think I'm such a desperate person? Or do you mean I'd be interested in any woman?"
The person who was beaten felt extremely wronged; their young master had done this before...
At this point, the group wisely refrained from saying anything further.
It's clear that the young master is angry.
The people watching the clinic didn't dare to relax for a moment. They saw the renovations going on inside and someone came over to report.
"You mean they're inside tidying up?"
"Yes, young master, all the windows are open, and I heard the counters inside are being moved. We don't dare get too close to see exactly how they're setting up. My feeling is that they're definitely reopening. But I don't know exactly what they'll be selling!"
"Hmph, there's no rush for now. You guys keep an eye on them, I want to see what they're up to!"
There aren't many pharmacies in Yancheng, and his shop already occupies most of the market. Even if he continues to run a clinic there, as long as his people cause trouble outside, he believes not many people will go in for treatment.
As for the pharmacies, the majority still belong to the mines, which is the county magistrate's territory. The two have been cooperating for so long that it's impossible for the county magistrate to suddenly change his mind.
Fatty Liu's eyes turned cold. Although they had been cooperating for a long time and he had given the magistrate enough benefits, their relationship was still not quite right.
"Call Xiaodie over here, she's coming out with me."
"Young Master, what are you planning to do..."
Fatty Liu glared at the man, and soon, Liu Xiaodie walked over awkwardly.
"Big brother, what's the matter? I heard that a handsome man has come to Yancheng, and Wang Yan and Mu Yurou have both run over there."
"What man?"
Fatty Liu hadn't inquired about this matter, but he asked out of curiosity.
"I heard he came with a pregnant woman. The man comes from a good family; I heard they are extremely wealthy."
"Besides, he's very handsome; both women have their eyes on him. Brother, I want to meet him too!"
When he heard his sister say that it was a pregnant woman, Fatty Liu's face turned dark. How could he not know who the man she was talking about was?
He hadn't seen the man, but he had seen the pregnant woman, who was indeed very beautiful.
"Don't overthink it. Come with me to see Magistrate Wang today!"
Upon hearing that she was to be taken to see the county magistrate, Liu Xiaodie's face fell: "Big brother, I don't want to see that old man."
The magistrate of Yancheng is over forty years old this year. He is greasy and has a big belly. The worst part is that his eyes are always lecherous. When he sees a pretty woman, his eyes are fixed on her, which makes people's skin crawl.
"What did you say?"
When he saw that his younger sister dared to contradict him, Fatty Liu's face darkened even more.
"Brother, I don't want to see the magistrate. I want to meet Young Master Zhou!"
"You've gone too far, haven't you?"
Fatty Liu stretched out his big, fat hand, ready to strike. But then he remembered that he would be taking his little sister to Magistrate Wang's side later, and it wouldn't be good if she had any injuries on her face.
He thought for a moment, then lowered his hand: "If our family business wants to flourish in Yancheng, we definitely need Magistrate Wang's support. You'll come with me later and try to curry favor with Magistrate Wang, otherwise..."
Liu Xiaodie shrank back; she didn't want to go, but she didn't dare disobey her older brother.
Her eldest brother was the undisputed leader at home. Although their father was still alive, most of the family business had fallen into his hands, and it had flourished even more under his leadership.
My older brother isn't particularly talented in medicine, but he's really good at other things.
"But brother, that Magistrate Wang isn't much younger than our father, I don't want to..."
"You have no choice but to think about it! Liu Xiaodie, let me tell you, if you ruin my plans, I'll kill you!"
Looking at her eldest brother's ruthless expression, Liu Xiaodie trembled with fear. The Liu family had many daughters, and her eldest brother had already sent several away.
From a very young age, her aunt told her to please her eldest brother, and she did just that. Among her sisters, she had a good relationship with her eldest brother, but she never expected that he would give her away to an old man who was about the same age as her father without hesitation.
If the aunt had known that trying to please would end like this, would she have still made her deliberately try to please the eldest brother?
"But brother, if that young master Zhou's family background is even better, wouldn't it be a greater help to our family if I could win his favor?"
