Chapter 99: Sky-high Price of Sugar Beans 2
Unlike Lu Ning, Old Lady Lu curled her lips and said, "What? Just a can of anti-cancer drug was auctioned at a sky-high price? What's the point of researching drugs to cure diseases and save lives? Isn't the country just making dirty money from us ordinary people?"
"Aunt! You just talk nonsense when you don't understand!" Lu Ning endured and finally managed to avoid giving the old lady a look. She said, "The anti-cancer drugs auctioned on the national official website are only for foreign wealthy businessmen and royal families! It clearly stipulates that for every ten cans of anti-cancer drugs auctioned by foreigners, four cans will be given to the country's citizens for free!"
"And every penny earned from the auction of anti-cancer drugs will be donated without reservation and invested in militarization construction!"
What is the concept? !
To put it more bluntly, the official website relies on earning money from foreigners to drive the development of domestic militarization!
This is no longer a simple matter of selling medicine, it even includes cultural output and boosts China's economy!
Old Mrs. Lu was dumbfounded and waved her hand awkwardly, "You are too sensitive, my aunt didn't mean to say anything bad about the country..."
"You certainly don't deserve to say bad things about the country!"
Lu Ning said sternly: "China's anti-cancer drug research and development, from scratch, from imitation to innovation, this is definitely not a simple process! Especially the predecessors who developed the drugs chose to donate all the money they earned. This kind of mentality alone is worthy of your admiration!"
Old Mrs. Lu: “…”
Old Mrs. Lu was scolded so much that she didn't even dare to say a word. The main reason was that Lu Ning's husband's family was rich, and she only bullied the weak and feared the strong, so she had no way to refute Lu Ning.
In addition, Lu Ning has been an upright child since childhood. If he had not had a car accident and damaged his retina, he might have been an officer in the army by now.
Lu Ning admires every scientific researcher from the bottom of her heart, who can withstand the loneliness of long years and give up their jobs abroad with annual salaries of one million.
They have their country, their home and a sense of belonging in their hearts. These are feelings engraved in their bones and deserve to be respected by everyone!
Then, after being scolded, Mrs. Lu now has only two feelings: a sense of elatedness, and anguish as Lu Chuwan had thrown a can of medicine at her before!
I feel sad and want to cry. I was supposed to be happy today!
Old Mrs. Lu looked listless.
Lu Chuwan's expression was also extremely complicated. "Aunt, are you mistaken? This medicine was given by Fu Zhi. She is from the countryside, how can she get anti-cancer drugs sold on the official website of the country?"
Before Lu Ning could respond, Xu Wei understood what he said and even had an idea, "There must be orphans in the research team who have stayed in the same orphanage as our Zhizhi!"
They must be those fake sisters!
“…”
Regarding Xu Wei's imagination, Lu Ning said it was irrelevant and she couldn't understand a word of it, which made her feel like she was deaf on the spot.
Just when she was about to ask Xu Wei to take her to find Fu Zhi, Dong Cun called her via video.
"I just checked. This porcelain bottle that holds the anti-cancer drug is an official kiln artwork made by Master Xu Jiuzhou of Beijing, imitating the white-glazed bottle of the Xing kiln in the Tang Dynasty, with the four gentlemen in the flowers outlined on its surface."
Xu Jiuzhou is a famous porcelain master in Beijing. He is also engaged in archaeological research and is currently a professor at the Archaeology Department of Tsinghua University. The artworks he imitates are worth at least six figures.
Dong Cun's expression was a bit complicated. "It does look like a pill. But the porcelain bottle in your hand looks very cheap when you magnify it. My expert friend said that it is just three small handicrafts sold for ten yuan at the market."
