Zhao family.
Zhao Mingcheng sat in the main seat, and several family heads were very anxious.
"Nephew Zhao, how is your contact with Huaxia going? We can't keep dragging things on."
"yes!"
"We have medicine in stock, which can last for another month or two, but others will soon run out of medicine."
"Once I stop taking the medicine, I will quickly age back to my original appearance. I don't want to become an old man again."
"I have asked several people in the Ministry of Commerce who I have contact with to ask, but there has been no response from Huaxia."
Zhao Mingcheng sighed. He didn't want to go back to his original appearance.
He was already in his thirties and almost forty, but after taking the medicine, he turned right back into his youthful appearance in his twenties.
After his appearance became younger, he felt that his body also became younger. Although the test results were the same as before, he felt that he was in better condition.
This feeling was so intoxicating that even though he knew he was kidnapped by Xiu Yandan, he still enjoyed it.
The same is true for the family heads present here, which is why they are so anxious.
Everyone was silent for a while, and suddenly someone said, "I think everyone is wrong. The key this time is not us, but those Western tycoons who heard the news and came here."
As soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately agreed by everyone.
"Think about the lists Zhang Shu brought out. Don't you understand? It was China's plan from the beginning."
"That Zhang Shu is a flag to lure us into the game. China's goal is to target those Western tycoons and break the Western blockade."
"But can the wealthy people in the West compromise with just one pill?"
"Why not? How did we do it in the first place? It was all because of Pill Baba's compromises."
"this……"
Everyone was helpless.
In order to become younger, they did compromise. In order for Zhang Shu to be able to enter and exit smoothly, they also took the initiative to help him complete the tasks assigned by the Ministry of Commerce.
Zhao Mingcheng said, "My dear uncles and elders, the problem now is not the pills, but how can we protect ourselves?"
"Our deal with China won't stand up to scrutiny. Once the negotiations between China and the Western tycoons break down, we will be the first victims."
Everyone frowned. This was indeed a very tricky problem.
One of them echoed, "As long as we pull those people onto our ship, who will dare to investigate?"
"Good idea, but how can we get those people on board?"
At this time, there was a cold snort in the crowd. Everyone looked over and a middle-aged man with an unremarkable appearance said, "You still don't understand those bastards in the West. What they are worried about is not the benefit to China, but whether the medicine is safe enough."
"Before I came here, several people had asked me about the physical changes after taking the medicine."
“If we want to get through this safely and continue to have a supply of medicine, I think everyone needs to cooperate.”
"Tell me more..."
Everyone discussed for a long time, and then the heads of each family left secretly one after another.
A few days later.
Some new faces appeared in the Zhao family hospital. Cai Siming was invited by Zhao Mingzhu to come and give him a full-body health check.
Cai Siming knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. After completing the task, he never took the beauty pills again. Zhao Mingzhu invited him here probably to see the body's reaction after taking the medicine and then stopping it.
There were several other men in hospital gowns in the same ward with him, ranging in age from middle-aged to elderly.
But from the way these people talk and act, it's clear that they are not ordinary people.
At the same time, many top wealthy people with bodyguards were sitting in the hospital's office, and Western-looking doctors were reporting the physical examination results of Cai Siming and others.
"Gentlemen, based on the results of physical examinations of a dozen gentlemen who have taken the medicine for different periods of time."
"After stopping the Xiuyan Pill, there is no burden on the body, but the drug is only used for a short time after all, so we do not recommend long-term use. It is best to conduct a cycle of clinical trials before making a decision."
Someone sneered.
"Clinical trials? That requires people to sell you the drugs. China has not heard anything yet. Even the Zhao family, who have been cooperating with us, has not given us face. How can you get the drugs?"
The doctor was speechless. He certainly knew that there was no problem with the medicine, but he had to say this, otherwise if something really happened in the future, he and his family would be the ones who would suffer.
"The production of this drug is not high to begin with. Huaxia has not responded. I'm afraid they think the price is too low, or they want to supply it exclusively to their own top leaders."
Everyone was talking about it.
But after all, I still have no intention of giving up on the beauty pill.
As long as these people still want the pills, Zhao Mingcheng and other wealthy people in Gangcheng are smart enough to keep their mouths shut.
In front of these Western tycoons, they are just nouveau riche.
These people are not only rich, but also have close ties with politicians from various countries. They can even manipulate presidential elections. They are extremely powerful.
Suddenly, the white old man who had been silent in the room looked at Zhao Mingcheng and said, "Talk to China with Xiuyandan."
The old men still couldn't resist the temptation, and Zhao Mingcheng acted quickly. He passed the news to the clerk of the Ministry of Commerce in Gangcheng that day, and the clerk immediately passed the news back to China.
Everyone in the Ministry of Commerce was excited after receiving the news, but if they wanted to take the initiative, they couldn't be too enthusiastic.
The Ministry of Commerce did not immediately respond to the people in Gangcheng.
But the wealthy people in Gangcheng are getting restless. Their time is precious, and they are worried that China is really holding on to the pills and not selling them to others. After all, there are quite a few powerful people in China.
If China really wants to keep the Xiuyan Pill for its own use, they will have no choice as they cannot really start a war.
But the problem is that we can’t beat them!
After repeated urging, Huaxia finally responded and was willing to discuss matters related to Xiuyan Dan.
A group of wealthy people were worried that China would be prepared after a long time, so they set the date for three days later and requested to hold the meeting in Gangcheng on the grounds of being busy.
The Ministry of Commerce felt it was too hasty, but still agreed reluctantly.
Three days later.
The team from the Ministry of Commerce arrived at the port. The entire team consisted of only a dozen people, including those who were proficient in English, those who were proficient in law, and two seconded staff members from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Of course, their current identity is staff members of the Ministry of Commerce.
"Welcome, welcome!"
Zhao Mingcheng brought a group of wealthy people from Gangcheng to the port to welcome them. These wealthy people were the first group of people to take the medicine.
Thanks to the beauty pill, they gained a lot of benefits.
Compared with the West, Xiuyandan has a greater influence in South Korea and Japan. The rich people in these two countries are more superstitious about Xiuyandan than the rich people in Gangcheng.
They also sent people to contact Zhang Shu, but he ignored them and even cursed them.
There was no other choice, the wealthy people of the two countries had to obtain the beauty pills through Gangcheng, and naturally they had a lot of business cooperation.
