Time is merciless! Mr. Pan is now nearly seventy years old. Their generation has experienced many ups and downs, and years of war have inevitably left their marks on them.
In the past two years, Mr. Pan’s health has deteriorated, which is worrying.
The Pan family has been secretly paying attention to the Su family, and they have long noticed the changes in Mr. Su's physical condition.
Therefore, when the news of the Su family's medicinal wine spread, the Pan family was the fastest to react! Pan Minghui, the eldest son of the Pan family, even released the news that he was buying the medicinal wine for a high price of one thousand yuan.
Pan Minghui is the same age as Su Guosheng. At the beginning of the turmoil, he was arranged by Mr. Pan to join the Kyoto Revolutionary Committee. In recent years, he has been doing very well.
Wang Yuzhen found Pan Minghui and told him that she had medicinal wine.
In order to dispel Pan Minghui's concerns, she told him everything she overheard about her grandfather and Mr. Sun's speculations.
"Is this medicinal wine really as useful as you say?"
After hearing this, Pan Minghui narrowed his eyes and felt secretly delighted.
He thought to himself, if this medicinal wine thing is true, then the Su family's handing over of the stomach medicine formula is not really an achievement! On the contrary, it is just evidence that the Su family is deceiving their subordinates and hiding the truth from their superiors!
With the Su family's status and position, instead of taking the lead in putting the interests of the country and the people first, they engage in selfishness!
Once this matter is confirmed, the business of several generations of the Su family will collapse and be destroyed!
The Pan family and the Su family had been fighting openly and secretly for so many years, but they didn't expect that in the end, the Su family would collapse on their own and bring themselves to ruin! It was really satisfying just thinking about it!
Wang Yuzhen had no idea of Pan Minghui's inner thoughts! She was only thinking about the thousand yuan!
"Isn't it obvious? With Mr. Su and Mr. Zhou standing there, who wouldn't see it?
Let me tell you! I spent a lot of effort to get this wine! If it weren't for your high price, I wouldn't be willing to sell it!
You know, for a family like ours that relies on the old man to make a living, who wouldn't want to serve him for a longer time?"
Pan Minghui thought about it and felt that what she said made sense!
"Alright! I'll trust you this time, I'll take this wine! But, you should know what I do, don't let me find out you're lying to me, otherwise..."
"No! No!" Wang Yuzhen was frightened by the sinister look on Pan Minghui's face and broke out in a cold sweat. She waved her hands frantically, like a chicken with its neck strangled. "I promise everything I said is true! I wouldn't dare lie to anyone but you!"
Although the movement was almost over, and the Revolutionary Committee hadn't been criticizing and struggling as frequently as in previous years, its influence was still there, and Wang Yuzhen was truly afraid.
In this way, Wang Yuzhen got the one thousand yuan she wished for.
She put the money in her pocket, got on her bike, and drove to the department store! Liu Jiajia gave her a thousand yuan for free, and she promised Liu Jiajia that she would buy back the shoes.
Pan Minghui held the bottle of wine and went to Mr. Pan.
"Hmm! This is a breakthrough!"
Old Mr. Pan, holding his crutch, listened quietly to Pan Minghui's thoughts and nodded in thought.
Over the years, he has been sending people to keep an eye on the Su family's every move, but the Su family is simply too impeccable when it comes to major matters!
Take the matter of Su Xing going to the countryside as an example. In fact, with just a word from Mr. Su, Su Xing could stay in Kyoto.
But Grandpa Su insisted on following the policy and sent his grandson to the countryside!
The second branch of the Su family is in Haishi, and he is out of reach. Su Guoyu and Su Guosheng in Kyoto are more cautious than each other!
Every family has minor problems, but they can't kill the Su family. He hasn't found any major problems!
If this incident is true, then it is indeed an opportunity!
"Quick! Open the wine and let me try it!" ordered Mr. Pan.
"Dad, can we taste the effect? How about I find a laboratory and have someone do some testing?" Pan Minghui suggested.
Old Master Pan nodded slightly. "You have a point! So, find an empty bottle, take a small amount and test it! If it really has the effect you said, then we won't waste such a good thing!"
Pan Minghui felt that what the old man said made sense! He found an empty bottle, took out half a tael of wine, and took it to the laboratory.
Mr. Pan was a wine lover, and when he smelled this fine Moutai, he couldn't help but take a big sip!
He smacked his lips as the liquor went down his throat, holding the bottle and muttering, "I don't feel anything different..."
So he took another big sip...

Su Kun's arm has healed, and he is grateful to Lan Guo'er from the bottom of his heart! Knowing that their family will return to Hai City the day after tomorrow, he wants to take Lan Guo'er out for a walk!
Aside from Yu Lei, he hadn't had much contact with women. He only remembered his girlfriend saying that women's favorite thing was shopping! So, he packed nearly a year's allowance and decided to let his cousin go on a shopping spree today!
Lan Guoer had no interest in shopping in this era, but seeing Su Kun's persistence and determination to achieve his goal, she agreed to his request.
It was a windy spring in Kyoto. The two of them rode their bikes to the department store.
The entrance to the department store was packed with people! There were three layers of people inside and outside, so crowded that it was impossible to get through!
Lan Guoer and Su Kun stood at the gate, looking at the huge crowd.
Lan Guoer instantly lost the desire to continue shopping!
Su Kun was also a little dumbfounded! He was in the team all year round, and it wasn't usually his turn to do the shopping for the family! How could he have imagined that he would have to fight for something to buy?
"Today is not the weekend, and it's not time to get off work, why are there so many people?"
"Guo'er?" At this time, a familiar voice was heard, and the two turned their heads to look.
Zhang Lan, dressed in a neat professional suit, walked towards the two of them with a smile, "It really is you! I thought I was seeing things!"
Lan Guoer recognized the person and politely called out, "Aunt Lan!"
Lan Guoer didn't forget the last time they came to ask for wine.
Zhang Lan couldn't stop smiling when she saw the alienation in Lan Guo'er's eyes. She knew that Lan Guo'er had a rift with the Zhao family. Putting herself in her shoes, she could understand. After all, she had such a foolish sister-in-law!
She wanted to ease their relationship, and knew that Lan Guoer would not come to steal the defective product, so she reminded him enthusiastically,
"Are you looking to buy something? We have a batch of defective goods to process today, so there are a lot of people here right now. If you're not in a hurry, just wait a while. Once that batch is processed, the crowd should be gone!"
Lan Guoer received Zhang Lan's goodwill and nodded, "So that's what's going on! Thank you Aunt Lan for reminding us. We'll wait outside for a while."
Zhang Lan called them over! "What are you talking about outside? There's not even a place to sit! Come on, go sit in the office with Aunt Lan!"
Zhang Lan was full of enthusiasm, and there was a strong wind outside! They say that a man who knows the times is a hero, so Lan Guoer naturally did not refuse.
Unexpectedly, just as they sat down in Zhang Lanlai's office, Wang Yuzhen pushed the door open, yelling.
