Chapter 407 A Storm is Brewing! Danger!
Cheng Dong looked at Gu Yin and said gently, "Among your senior brothers and sisters, the most active one is the third one. The others are all quite steady. I hope I didn't scare you!"
Gu Yin shook her head: "No, Third Senior Brother is very enthusiastic!"
Cheng Dong pointed to the chair: "You sit down and wait for him. Let me tell you what you'll be doing and what my requirements are. No leave without permission, and no being late or leaving early! You need to be prepared to stay on campus during summer or winter break. Also, we have a three-month internship here. During these three months, no matter what method you use—whether you ask others for help or search in the library yourself—you must produce a research project. This project must have a framework, content, and be something you can actually work on. It can't be something superficial. Because once your project is approved, you'll have to research it for three months until you finish it. This isn't a school reception hall where teachers correct mistakes and that's it. Here, you have to do everything yourself. But if you don't understand something, you can ask. There are plenty of people here smarter than you. You must make good use of the resources around you! Don't try to do everything yourself. It would be ridiculous if you couldn't do it even when you were old. Do you understand?"
Gu Yin nodded: "I understand, teacher."
Cheng Dong nodded: "Also, you can't reuse projects you've done before. For example, you can't use that scar removal cream to fool me!"
Gu Yin asked in surprise, "How did the teacher know I did this?"
Cheng Dong snorted: "When your grandfather took it to apply for a patent, all the materials came to us. We also tested it, and it is indeed as the instructions say. One tube can permanently eliminate the problem. The higher-ups have already reached an agreement with your grandfather. Overseas sales have been handed over to the government. The government will give your two companies and your family's commercial street a five-year tax exemption. Your grandfather agreed. So, this tube of plaster is not being widely advertised in our country yet because it is under government control. We will promote it vigorously after they have reached an agreement with the foreign companies. After all, if it is sold too expensively abroad, they might regret it."
Gu Yin blinked. She had thought that given Grandpa's pace, the plaster shouldn't be famous yet. Oh, so that's how it is! Five years of taxes, that's a lot of money! Although it's not as much as she would earn selling it overseas, it's her own country, so it's only right.
How much does a tube of takeout cost?
Cheng Dong laughed: "In China, it costs 80 yuan per tube, but abroad it's 500 US dollars."
That's a huge surge!
"What if they have someone in the country help them buy it?"
Cheng Dong chuckled: "The higher-ups have also thought about this. People who buy this plaster need to show their ID card and a hospital certificate. Each person can only buy one box. Pharmacy staff, hospitals, or merchants will conduct regular follow-ups. If you don't need it and sell it to someone else, once you are caught, you will be permanently blacklisted from the pension and medical insurance system!"
It was a bit of a hassle, but it was definitely useful.
When will the overseas contracts be finalized?
"It was all sorted out yesterday, and the person who was on the business trip is back today. Ask your grandfather later; he should receive the news. This plaster will be available in major hospitals and pharmacies across the country in about two weeks!"
The two chatted for a while longer before Yue Zemin returned with some ointment for Gu Yin. This ointment was made in their lab and was very effective.
After Gu Yin applied the ointment for two days, the red spots disappeared.
That day, Gu Yin was researching in the lab when her phone rang. Seeing it was Li Mengxin calling, Gu Yin answered with a puzzled look: "What's wrong, Mom?"
"Grandpa Yao has passed away. Are you free to come back with your grandparents?"
Gu Yin's head throbbed: "How could this be? Everything was fine before! When did this happen?"
The other person even came to the graduation banquet, although they were using crutches because they had slipped and fallen while taking a shower, but they seemed to be in good spirits! And then, less than half a month later, they were gone?
"What happened this morning, and the hospital we stayed in last night, was told to us by Ayan's father. Brother Chu and Sister Yao are still abroad and asked us to go there for them. They are on their way back now. If you have time, please come back."
"Okay, Mom, I'll talk to the teacher too." Gu Yin hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and then called Gu Le.
The call was connected very quickly.
"Ah Le, Grandpa Yao has passed away."
Gu Le was in English class, preparing for her trip abroad. Upon hearing this, she immediately packed her things: "Sister! You must stop Mr. and Mrs. Chu. You absolutely cannot let them drive back by themselves!"
Gu Yin packed her things as she did so: "Mom said the two of them are still abroad. They'll arrive tonight if things go well, and tomorrow if things go slowly. They didn't come from Beijing."
Gu Le was stunned. In his previous life, Chu Xiong and Yao Jinse were in a hurry to drive back to Jiang City because of the death of Old Master Yao. As a result, it rained heavily that day, and the two had a car accident on the highway and died on the spot. Chu Yan investigated for a long time before finding out that it was arson. The evidence pointed to the Xue family, but he also died later. As for whether it was the Xue family, it was still uncertain.
"Okay, I'll go back first. I'll have Grandpa bring people for me. I'll wait for them at the airport, and then I'll go back after I pick them up!" The Zhou family's bodyguards are all hired from abroad; they're the kind who have seen blood. Gu Le even has two bodyguards who were sent by Wu Ye, who said they were recruited from war-torn areas and are extremely capable!
He refused to believe that he, with so many people with him, couldn't stop them!
