Chapter 56 Cleaned Up
The man who was speaking was a major grower of medicinal herbs in the country, and his quality was excellent. He had also cultivated a number of small companies under his control, and they all regarded him as their boss, so he only needed to say a word and they would obey him obediently.
The man was saying, "Don't supply the Li family with goods recently. The Wang family is opening a new medicine store called Wanjintang. They offer high prices, and they have a good relationship with me, so they won't treat you unfairly."
"But Mr. Li is a good person. He has been nice to us in the past." One of them said. He was tall and thin, and had a handsome appearance.
This made the man laugh and say, "What's good or bad? They have the strictest requirements. We work so hard. The Wang family said they'll take everything, no matter what, and the price is a bit higher than over there. We're all businessmen, and we're all here to make money."
"You can't say that. Herbs are used to cure diseases, so it's reasonable to have high standards." The handsome man always felt something was wrong.
"Shut up, or you can just sell it to him alone, what a bunch of nonsense." The man got a little angry and said, "If you sell it to him today, your company won't be able to open tomorrow. You can't offend the Wang family."
"So you think that if you don't sell it to Wancaotang, your company can last long?" An Yan interrupted him.
The man turned around to look at her and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm from Wancaotang. I came to see if your medicinal herbs have been packed." An Yan said as she looked them over.
"We have already negotiated with the Wang family to ship the goods to Wanjintang."
"You have a contract with Wancaotang. You know how much you'll have to pay if you terminate the contract privately."
"It doesn't matter. Let Mr. Li and the Wang family get the money. They are very familiar with each other anyway." The man said in a disdainful tone.
"Look at you, you're such a dishonest person. Even if you can give birth to a son, he'll be a mentally retarded one. It's because you have no moral integrity in your daily life." An Yan snorted coldly.
The man was shocked. He had changed seven wives in succession, and all his previous wives had given birth to daughters. He finally gave birth to a son, but it turned out to be a fool. He was almost completely desperate and said, "What do you mean by this?"
"Be a good person, maybe there is hope that your son will not be so stupid." An Yan knew that this was his weakness. He didn't know how much energy he had to spend on his son every year, hoping that he could recover.
"What? You want to give me a smart son?" His tone was full of sarcasm, and he laughed out loud to cover up his inner depression.
While he was laughing, An Yan threw a pill into his mouth and slapped him hard.
He was a little flustered and wanted to ask her what she had given him to eat, but he found that he couldn't make a sound for a long time. He immediately became at a loss and made wild gestures at An Yan.
The people standing by were also terrified. He was speaking happily just now, but now he became silent.
An Yan said, "You're a bastard. You treat women as reproductive tools and change wives when you can't give birth to a son. You deserve what you get. And look at your business character. It's really shameful. You even dared to find someone to frame Wancaotang for selling fake medicine. You're really bold."
The man tried desperately to speak, but he couldn't make a sound. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed to An Yan.
An Yan said to the others, "If you don't want to be unable to speak for the rest of your life, just deliver the herbs to Wancaotang on time. Do you understand?"
Those people nodded repeatedly, but someone asked, "How should we explain this to the Wang family?"
"Just tell the truth. Do you think Wancaotang will let you suffer any loss? Li Rongsen will take the blame for any problems. Just focus on your own work." An Yan told them calmly, and then said, "Send the herbs over immediately. It won't be late at all."
The handsome man said, "I'll go get the goods back now."
"How long will it take?"
“The goods can be delivered in an hour.”
"The sooner the better, and we won't allow anything like this to happen again."
The others followed suit and went downstairs to do their work.
An Yan looked at the man kneeling on the ground and asked him, "You must clarify the matter of selling fake medicine."
He nodded first, then pointed to his throat.
An Yan said, "Go have some tea."
The man quickly stood up and took a sip of tea. When he found he could speak again, he immediately said to An Yan, "You have offended the Wang family. They will not let you off easily."
"If you offend Wancaotang, you won't have an easy time." An Yan reminded him, and then said, "It seems that in your eyes, the Wang family seems to be more intimidating than Wancaotang."
"The Wang family's influence covers many areas. Wancaotang is just a thatched cottage that sells some medicinal herbs. Li Rongsen also has to look at Wang Lina's mood." The man said this as if Li Rongsen was very incompetent.
An Yan was too lazy to talk to him about this matter. She said, "But you are worse than Wancaotang."
He smiled awkwardly and asked her, "You should have a way to cure my son, right?"
"Why should I help you with your treatment? We have no friendship."
"I beg you, I only have this one son, I just hope he can get better, I don't want to change my wife anymore, and I don't expect him to be very smart, he just needs to be like an ordinary person. He is too stupid now, too stupid, what should I do in the future?" He showed the worry of an old father.
"Then you should be a good person."
"I promise you, I will be a good person in the future and will never do anything to let down Wancaotang again, okay?" He knelt down again.
"You're a grown man, but you're so soft-hearted." An Yan really looked down on him.
"As long as my son doesn't become stupid, I'll do anything." He said this with a solemn oath, and then said, "I will now have those two people clarify to Wancaotang that they sold fake medicine. I deliberately framed them."
"Who wants to frame them?" An Yan asked again.
"It was the Wang family who asked me to find someone to do this."
"Then just tell me the truth." An Yan was about to leave, but the man quickly stopped her and said, "I beg you, you can definitely help me, right? What exactly do you want to do to help me?"
"You have to give me time to make medicine, and there is no medicine for me to make at Wancaotang right now."
"Okay, okay, I'll go deliver the medicine myself right now. I'll do it right away." The man immediately shouted downstairs, "Hurry up and pack all the herbs and send them to Wancaotang, go to Wancaotang!"
An Yan said, "Just wait, I'll bring the medicine over when it's ready."
"You are telling the truth and not lying to me." A look of hope appeared on the man's face.
"I'm not you, breaking your promise." An Yan said and left. She still had to go find Sheng Mingjie, but she was delayed by this matter.
Sheng Mingjie was a little surprised. When he saw An Yan coming into the office, he asked someone to get some water and said, "Thank you for coming. What do you want to talk to me about?"
