Chapter 281
"Zachary, what on earth is Yun Jia's illness?" Elder Song saw Zachary's expression and could not help but ask anxiously.
Zachary looked at Elder Song and said, "Elder Song, Yunjia's illness is not an ordinary one. It's not an ordinary one at all."
"If it's not a disease, what's that?" Elder Song asked in surprise.
Zachary said, "Mr. Song, you may be surprised or even disbelieving what I'm going to say next."
"Zachary, feel free to speak," said Elder Song.
After a pause, Zachary said, "Yunjia didn't get an illness, but she was invaded by Yin Qi, which caused imbalance between Yin and Yang in her body, causing her current situation."
"Yin Qi has entered my body!" Elder Song looked at Zachary with a strange expression on his face.
Zachary nodded and said, "Elder Song, you are the president of the Antique Association, so you should know very well about the ancient thoughts of Yin-Yang, Five Elements, and Eight Trigrams in our country."
Mr. Song nodded. Obviously, he was not unfamiliar with these rumors.
"In our ancient thoughts of Yin and Yang, everything between heaven and earth, including us humans, is formed by the convergence of Yin and Yang. Among them, the Yang Qi in a man's body is superior, while the Yin Qi in a woman's body is superior. In general, it is maintained in a relatively balanced stage."
"But now, Yunjia's situation is that too much yin energy entered her body, leading to imbalance of yin and yang. This caused her entire body to go cold, becoming what it is now," Zachary explained.
"Then what should we do now? Shall we invite the Taoist priests to conduct the religious rites?" Elder Song was a little anxious.
Zachary shook his head and said, "Most of the monks and Taoist priests can't feel the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Thus, let alone solve the problem, they can't even see through Yun Jia's condition." "What should we do?"
Zachary comforted him and said, "Don't worry, Song Lao. I can handle Yunjia's situation."
Elder Song was a little skeptical and asked, "Zachary, can you handle it?"
"Elder Song, I can figure out Yun Jia's illness, of course, I can solve it," Zachary said with a smile.
"Zachary, sorry to trouble you. When can you..."
"We can do it now!" Zachary sat on the edge of Song Yunjia's bed again as he spoke. Then he reached out his right hand, grabbed Song Yunjia's wrist, held it firmly, and began to circulate the smell of herbs in his body, silently pushing the breath into Song Yunjia's body.
The problem of imbalance was easy to cure, which was to balance the imbalance of yin and yang again. However, ordinary people could not even distinguish the imbalance of yin and yang, not to mention the imbalance of imbalance of yin and yang.
However, for Zachary, a practitioner, the aura of all kinds of herbs in his body was already full of Yang qi. If he injected a proper amount of Yang qi into Song Yunjia's body, her body would be restored to normal.
Sure enough, with the infusion of Zachary's vigor, Song Yunfei, who was covered in the quilt, stabilized in less than ten minutes. Then she began to shout "hot" and kicked away the thick quilt on her body.
When Mr. Song saw this, his face showed a hint of surprise. He rushed forward and turned off the air conditioner and the heating system, so that Song Yunjia could be better.
Finally, half an hour later, Zachary heaved a long sigh of relief, let go of his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stood up.
At this moment, Song Yunjia had completely calmed down. There was a trace of blood on her face, and she had completely recovered.

Looking at Zachary, who was covered with sweat, a grateful look flashed in her eyes. Then she looked down and saw that she was only wearing a set of pajamas. Suddenly, her cheeks were hot. She had no time to care about the hotness and went straight into the bed again.
When Elder Song saw this, he chuckled. Then, he stood up and said to Zachary, "Zachary, you've worked hard. Let's go out and have a rest."
In the living room, Elder Song personally made a cup of Longjing tea for Zachary, handed the tea cup to Zachary with both hands, and said, "Zachary, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what Yun Jia would do?" Zachary took over the tea from Elder Song with both hands and said, "Elder Song, you're welcome. Yunjia's business is my business. Besides, it's also a doctor's duty to heal the wounded and rescue the dying!"
Elder Song sighed softly and said, "Zachary, I'd like to ask you a question. What's going on with Yunjia's illness? How could she have been infected by the yin qi?"
Zachary said, "Mr. Song, in fact, the reason for Yunjia's illness this time is artificial."
"Is it man-made?" Mr. Song said in surprise, "You mean someone secretly did something bad to Yunjia, which led to Yin Qi entering Yunjia's body."
Zachary nodded and said, "Just now, I found a Spirit Gathering Array in Yunjia's room."
"Spirit Gathering Array?" The expression on Elder Song's face became a little confused.
"The so-called Spirit Gathering Array, as its name implies, is a kind of array that is used to gather the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Generally speaking, it is used by cultivators to cultivate the formation of healing. And according to the Yin and Yang property of gathering aura, it can be divided into the Yang Qi Gathering Array and the Yin Qi Gathering Array. In Yunjia's room, it is a Yin Qi Gathering Array."
"Yin Qi gathering into the Yin Qi of the Spirit Gathering Array. As a result, the Yin Qi in Yunjia's room is very dense, and Yunjia inhaled too much Yin Qi, which led to her illness," explained Zachary.
"How did this happen?" Elder Song's face was full of surprise and worry. "Zachary, is the Spirit Gathering Array still here?"
Zachary nodded and said, "I just balanced the yin and yang qi in her body. But if she continues to stay in that room, the yin qi in her body will definitely increase again as time goes by. The whole family may even be affected as time goes by." "Ah, it's so serious. Then, I'll move. I can't let Yunjia suffer any more harm," Mr. Song said anxiously.
Seeing this, Zachary quickly comforted Old Taoist Song, "Mr. Song, don't worry. I have a way to break the Spirit Gathering Array in Yunjia's room."
"Then, Zachary, you need to crack it as soon as possible," Elder Song said in a hurry.
Zachary said, "Elder Song, there's no hurry. Think about it, since this is a man-made affair, then the other party definitely has some intentions. If we rashly break the Spirit Gathering Array, the other party will definitely be aware of it. At that time, even if we move, it's inevitable that the other party will come looking for us again. After all, we still don't know why he chose to set up the Spirit Gathering Array here."
"Zachary, you wish to capture the person who set up the array," asked Elder Song.
"Okay!" Zachary nodded.
"Do you want to call the police and ask the police to come over to help? People like them, I'm afraid..." Mr. Song said with worry.
Zachary quickly comforted him, "In the face of such a cultivation person, the police will inevitably alert the enemy when they come, and the effect is not good. I alone here is enough." "Zachary, you're on your own. I, I'm afraid it's not safe," Elder Song said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I have my way. I guess that they will come back in a few days. For safety's sake, Elder Song and Yunjia go to a nearby hotel for a few days, and I'll guard here," Zachary said. "But..." Elder Song was still a little worried.
At this moment, the door creaked open, and Song Yunjia, who had changed her clothes, came out. She was dressed in simple sportswear with a fresh ponytail behind her head. Her face was slightly rosy, which made her look better.

"Grandpa, what's that?" Song Yunjia sat down beside Song Yiqing with a smile.
Elder Song caressed his granddaughter's head affectionately. "Nothing much!" he said without saying anything else.
But how could Song Yunjia not see through his cover-up? She asked, "Grandpa, this is related to my illness, so you can't hide it from me."
"But..." Elder Song hesitated.
"Mr. Ching, Grandpa didn't tell me. You have to tell me what happened. Did I have some incurable disease? Don't worry, I won't be scared." Song Yunjia stared at Zachary with her big round eyes.
"It's almost New Year's, what nonsense are you talking about? What incurable disease." Mr. Song glared at Song Yunjia.
"Grandpa, just tell me! Otherwise, I'll pester you and Mr. Ching and won't let you leave." Song Yunjia started throwing a tantrum.
In the end, after getting Old Song's consent, Zachary told Song Yunjia everything about the Spirit Gathering Formation and the Yin Qi entering the body.
After listening, the lively girl was obviously shocked. After all, this kind of explanation of yin and yang was too strange for a student who grew up in the scientific age.
"In short, Yunjia, don't worry. I will solve the problem this time." Zachary made a promise.
"Thank you, Mr. Ching." Although she didn't understand what was Yinyang, Song Yunjia was very sincere about Zachary's gratitude.
She asked Song Yunjia and Elder Song to stay in the living room, while Zachary walked into Song Yunjia's bedroom alone.
He mobilized the breath of a hundred herbs and injected it into his eyes. Suddenly, the scenery in his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin green mist.
And in this light green mist, lines of dark blue lines appeared in Zachary's eyes. The lines were very thin, almost covering the entire floor of the room.
These seemingly disordered and disorderly lines were vaguely connected to form an abstract Eight Diagrams Formation of the Five Elements. In the most critical position of the formation, there was a small round jade stone, which should be the source of energy of the Yin and Yang Spirit Gathering Formation.
After dispelling the smell of a hundred herbs in his eyes, the scene in front of his eyes returned to normal. The thin dark blue lines were made of a mineral called Tianlan Desert, which was mixed with plant dyes. After being soaked in Spiritual Qi, it would become colorless and tasteless. It was often used by cultivators as the raw material for drawing formations.
However, Zachary had already determined the location of the formation eye, which was located at the bottom of Song Yunjia's bed. Zachary went in and soon found the round jade. Faintly, he could feel a slight cool aura gathering and flowing in the jade stone.
Zachary did not directly damage the jade stone at the eye of the formation. If that was the case, the entire Energy-gathering Formation would be ruined, and the spellcaster would definitely be able to sense the abnormality here. Therefore, Zachary only carefully approached it. He gently touched the top of the jade stone with his right hand and slightly exerted his strength. Immediately, an extremely thin crack appeared on the round jade stone. At the same time, the speed of the entire Spirit Convergence Array was obviously affected and slowed down a lot.
After doing all this, Zachary came to the living room and ordered Mr. Song and Song Yunjia to move out and live there tonight. He decided to stay here for the next few days.
Because when the spellcaster noticed that the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array had weakened, he would definitely come over to check it out. Zachary was prepared to catch it at that time.
Mr. Song and Song Yunjia simply packed up their clothes and daily necessities, and then quietly left home.
As for Zachary, he thoroughly checked the hometown of the Song family. However, other than the Spirit Gathering Array in Song Yunjia's room, there was nothing else special about it.

On the contrary, Elder Song had a collection room for antiques, which made Zachary's eyes shine. There were many old things in it, and even some precious items hundreds of years ago. Some of the old and mottled toys reminded Zachary of the Herbal King who used to be a Herbal King.
As it was getting dark, Zachary turned off all the lights in the room. The door of Song Yunjia's room was completely open, and he hid sideways behind a huge screen in the living room. Through the gap of the screen, Zachary could see the scene in Song Yunjia's room.
As time went by, the whole room fell into silence and there was no sound. Zachary could only hear his own faint breathing.
It was getting cold in the middle of the night. The air in the room seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, which made Zachary feel a little tired.
At this moment, there was a slight click, which cheered up Zachary's tiredness. He looked through the gap of the screen towards Song Yunjia's room.
A black shadow flashed through Song Yunjia's window.
Seeing this, Zachary couldn't help but say in his heart, "Sure enough, he is not an ordinary person, but a cultivator. Otherwise, this is the fifth floor, and it is impossible for him to get in like this."
After the black shadow entered the room, he sprinkled a small amount of powder into the air. The powder quickly spread throughout the entire room. Some floated out and entered Zachary's mouth and nose.
"It's a powder with double effects of illusion and coma." Zachary quickly judged the effect of the powder. At the same time, he ran the smell of various herbs to clean all the effective powder in his body.
After sprinkling the powder, the black shadow also found that there was no one else in the room. So his movements became more bold, he went directly to the bottom of the bed and groped inside for a while. After a while, he came out, muttering to himself, "What shoddy jade? It's so unreliable. It took us less than a week to crack it. Next time, we can't go to that store to buy it."
At the same time, Zachary felt that the speed of the Yin airflow inside the room was obviously faster. Obviously, the black shadow had restored the jade at the eye of Zachary's formation.
After the formation was completed, the black shadow did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked around and walked out of the room. Then he opened the collection room of antiques collected by Mr. Song and got into it. Seeing this, Zachary's figure moved like a shadow as he followed closely behind.
Perhaps it was for the convenience of evacuation, the door of the collection room was not fully closed, and there was a crack in the door.
Through the crack of the door, Zachary saw that in the room, the black shadow's eyes lingered on various antiques for a while. He held a bunch of fine powder in his hand and drew something on some antique shelves. "You're drawing another formation?" Zachary's heart skipped a beat.
The black shadow didn't draw for too long. After about a quarter of an hour, he stopped drawing. Then he directly sat cross-legged in the collection room, closed his eyes and calmed his breath, and began to meditate and cultivate inside. At the same time, Zachary also felt that Song Yunjia was faintly connected to the two magic formations in the collection room, which made the yin airflow in the room flow more smoothly.
In the end, it almost turned into streams of black air, constantly pouring into the black shadow's body.
Outside the door, Zachary quietly looked at the black shadow meditating and cultivating. About a quarter of an hour later, the other party seemed to have entered the state of entering a meditative state. Zachary's eyes suddenly lit up. He pushed open the door of the collection room, and then his figure, like lightning, rushed toward the black shadow.
Obviously, the black figure, who was meditating, did not expect that he would be suddenly attacked. Therefore, when Zachary pushed the door open and came in, he came to his senses. He bounced his legs and stood up from the ground. At the same time, he clapped his palms forward to stir up a black mist to attack Zachary. His body quickly retreated toward the only small window in the collection room.

Chapter 283
However, facing the black mist that was shot out by the black shadow, Zachary, who had been prepared for this, had already released the smell of herbs in front of him, completely separating the black mist.
His speed didn't seem to be affected in the slightest, and he threw a powerful punch at the black shadow.
The shadow's retreating speed was not slow, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the window. However, because this was the antique storage room, many of the collections could not see strong light at all. Hence, the only small window in the room was built high and small, causing the shadow's fleeing speed to immediately slow down.
In this short period of time, Zachary's fist was already in front of his body, and the strong momentum made the black shadow cry out in surprise.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The black shadow slapped Zachary's fist and it collided with Zachary's.
However, it was obvious that his panicked palm naturally couldn't resist Zachary's fist. The black shadow let out a muffled groan, and his body quickly retreated.
"Let's drink!"
Zachary shouted in a low voice and threw his left fist forward with a loud bang.
Pu!
At this moment, the black shadow suddenly spat out a mouthful of liquid.
Zachary smelled a bloody smell and was shocked. He quickly held his breath, but his body still kept rushing forward.
As the strong smell of blood came, Zachary felt a familiar feeling in it, and he was even more shocked. The smell of herbs in his body suddenly broke out, and his speed increased again.
In this small space, Zachary's speed was obviously faster than the black shadow's. In the twinkling of an eye, Zachary's left fist hit the other side's chest. The other side gave a muffled hum, and his body twisted, trying to escape. However, Zachary would not let the fish that he had gotten slip away. He used all his strength, twisted the other's arm, and pressed it firmly on the ground, unable to move.
"Hey, hero, I surrender, I surrender."
After being subdued by Zachary, the other party quickly admitted defeat and quickly surrendered.
Zachary didn't let down his guard so easily. He moved his right hand repeatedly and clicked on the black shadow a few times, making him unable to move. Then he let go of his left arm and turned on the lights in the collection room. Under the light, Zachary saw that it was a man in black, wearing a full-body black suit, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
"It's you!" Pulling off the hood on the head of the black shadow, Zachary could not help but exclaim when he saw the appearance of the other party.
"It's you!" At this moment, when the black shadow saw Zachary's face, he was also surprised. Then his face was full of remorse. "How could I be so unlucky to fall into your hands again?"
"Tell me, what the hell is going on? Elder Lei!" Zachary looked coldly at the old man in front of him.
This guy was none other than the old chaperone Zachary met the last time he came to the Antique Row to buy some presents for Abby.
At that time, relying on a mouthful of poisonous blood, this guy finally escaped from Zachary's mouth. But he didn't expect that in this situation, the two sides would meet again.
"Dr. Ching, please let me go. I mean no harm." Lei Lao was not arrogant at all this time. At the same time, he directly called out Zachary's name. Obviously, after the last incident, he had investigated Zachary's information.
"No malice!" Zachary narrowed his eyes and said, "You almost killed a girl, and you also said that you meant no malice."
Lei Lao quickly clasped his hands and begged for mercy, "Dr. Ching, I didn't mean it! I just wanted to absorb a little Yin Qi. I don't want to hurt anyone."
"Absorb Yin Qi! Tell me more about it," Zachary said.
Lei Lao took a look at Zachary and had to explain, "Last time on the antique street, I believe you know, Dr. Ching, that I am a cultivator, but I am not a cultivator who can meet people." "Can't you see people? It's obviously an evil cultivator." Zachary shouted.
Lei Lao immediately cried out for injustice, "Dr. Ching, you've wronged me. Although my cultivation method is a bit strange, it's still orthodox. It's definitely not an evil cultivation. I'm..." "Let's talk about your identity later. Tell us your purpose in breaking into the Song family." Zachary shouted.
The silver-haired Lei Lao had no room to resist at the moment. He looked at Zachary and said, "Last time when you fought with Dr. Ching on the antique street, I spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood and my body was injured. So I tried to find a way to repair my body. The cultivation method of our sect is different from ordinary cultivators'. We can't absorb the common Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. We can only absorb Yin Qi to replenish our body."
"The Yin Qi that our sect absorbs is not the same as the Yin Qi of a grave or a dead person. They are the real evil cultivators." Lei Lao explained. "Anyway, I need to absorb a relatively orthodox Yin Qi to heal my wounds. But in this era, let alone the orthodox Yin Qi, even the Spiritual Qi is very scarce. The orthodox Yin Qi I need, however, is very limited and only contains some of it in some antiques."

"Absorbing Yin energy from the antique street." Zachary nodded gently, which was an eye-opener. At the same time, he secretly thought that it was no wonder that Elder Lei had been hiding in the antique street all the time. It turned out that he wanted to absorb the Yin energy from the antique street.
Seeing Zachary nodding, Lei Lao seemed to be relieved and continued to talk, "When it comes to antiques, there are not many places in Ludington City. First of all, I don't need to say much about the fake antiques in the antique street. In addition, I was worried that you would investigate me over there, so I didn't go back. Secondly, in the museum, there were many antiques, but the guards were also very strict. There was also the post of State Public Daily. I didn't dare to go there, so I finally thought of President Song's family."
"When I came to President Song's house, I found that there were many antiques in it, and the Yin Qi in them was also very good. But he had been at home all the time, so it was not convenient for me to directly cultivate here. Therefore, I chose a suitable place to draw the Spirit Gathering Array, and collected the Yin Qi in the antique into the jade stone at the eye of the formation, and then I found another jade to cultivate when I had spare time."
After listening to this, Zachary's opinion of Lei Lao had some changes. Originally, he thought that this guy was an evil cultivator who specialized in cultivation, but he did not expect that he just wanted to absorb the evil energy from antiques. However, as for the fact that Song Yunxi was almost implicated because of this, Zachary couldn't just let it go.
His face turned serious, and he stared at Lei Lao and shouted, "You almost killed an innocent girl for your own interests. How do you explain this?"
Lei Lao's expression changed and he revealed a look of guilt. "This time, it's true that I didn't think it through properly. I laid down a Spirit Convergence Array in her room, but I didn't think that she was just an ordinary person and couldn't withstand the invasion of Yin Qi. I was too anxious to heal myself and didn't think of this."
"Do you think it's enough just because you didn't think of it?" Zachary shouted.
Lei Lao quickly waved his hand and said, "Dr. Ching, I am not a good person, but I will not harm innocent people. I just found the girl's condition not long ago. For this, I also specially bought herbs and prepared a pill that can increase Yang Qi. I was going to find a chance to let her take it."
"Really?" Zachary changed his view of Lei Lao.
"Absolutely true." Lei Lao said in a hurry. He quickly took out a small box from his body and opened it. There was indeed a small dark red pill in it.
Zachary sniffed a little and recognized the effect of the pill, which was similar to what Lei Lao said.
Chapter 284
Chapter 284
Seeing that Zachary's face was slightly relieved, Lei Lao asked flatteringly, "Dr. Ching, I have told you what you want to ask. I will withdraw the Spirit Gathering Formation immediately. Please let me go!"
"Let you go?" Zachary said in a serious tone, "Do you think this kind of compensation is enough to almost kill someone?"
"Then Dr. Ching, please tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse." Lei Lao was really anxious, and he addressed Zachary with respect.
Zachary pondered for a moment, looked at Lei Lao and said, "Help me do things for three years. After three years, if you want to go anywhere, I will definitely not stop you. Of course, the salary will be given to you. You don't have to go to the antique street to do that kind of scam."
Hearing this, Lei Lao's face couldn't help but become bitter. He said, "Dr. Ching, it's not that I don't want to! This is what I'm doing. Except for cheating, I really don't know how to do anything!"
"You are a cultivator, and your skills are not bad. No matter how you say it, you can't do anything!" Zachary looked at him with a smile and said.
The reason why he wanted Lei Lao to stay and work for him was that there were more and more estates under his name, and he needed more and more people. Secondly, Lei Lao was a cultivator like him, which was a great help for Zachary to understand the current situation of cultivators.
As for the three-year deadline, Zachary thought about Lauren's 'Seven Delicate and Delicate Heart's' condition, so he had to find a suitable medicine material and concoct an antidote for her during the three-year fever period. This also needed the help of a cultivator like Elder Lei.
However, no one wanted to follow others, not to mention such a practitioner as Elder Lei. Even though he knew that he couldn't defeat Zachary, he still didn't want to say yes.
Zachary looked at Lei Lao's embarrassed look and did not say anything. He just flicked his finger, and then a smell of herbs burst out from his fingertips. Then it turned into a green flame, burning continuously.
Seeing this, Lei Lao was shocked, and then he seemed to think of something. He looked at Zachary with a smile and said, "Dr. Ching, it's not impossible for me to work with you. It's just that I am young and weak. If I can't handle it well, it will be a disgrace to you, Dr. Ching, so..."
Zachary naturally understood the meaning of Lei Lao's words. This fellow wanted to gain some benefits and increase his own strength.
Therefore, he couldn't help but smile and put away the smell of herbs on his fingertip. He said, "You can't cultivate my aura."
Hearing this, Lei couldn't help showing a disappointed expression on his face, but then he explained with a forced smile, "Dr. Ching, I didn't mean that. I just..."
"Well, you don't have to explain. I know what you're thinking. It's not good for you to work for me. That's not a big deal," Qin Haodong said with a smile. Then he pulled out a piece of paper and wrote down a prescription. He gave it to Lei Lao and said, "According to this prescription, it will be good for your health after three months of boiling. There will be more benefits waiting for you in the future."
"This is?" Lei Lao received the prescription and held it in his hand as he inquired.
"You crafty old fox, you really don't show off until you see a rabbit!" Zachary scolded in his heart and said, "This is the original version of the Huahao Body Tempering Liquid."
Hearing this, Elder Lei's eyes lit up. He had personally tried the miraculous effect of the Huahao refining ointment, and even bought quite a few for himself to insist on consuming.
But after all, he was a cultivator. After he used this kind of body tempering ointment against ordinary people for a while, the effect would not be so obvious. Now, Zachary actually took out the original version of the body tempering paste and gave it to him. The effect could definitely be expected.

"Thank you, Dr. Ching. In the past three years, I'll do my best to follow Dr. Ching's orders." Mr. Lei smiled.
Zachary waved his hand and said, "Well, you don't need to say these compliments. Tell me now, what's the matter with your identity and your social status now?" Hearing this, Lei Lao's face could not help but become bitter. After being silent for a while, he looked up at Zachary and spoke with a serious face.
"Dr. Ching, you are also a cultivator. You should know the current situation of us cultivators." Lei Lao said with a sigh.
As the former Herbal King, he had some understanding of the cultivators of that era. But in this era, he really didn't know much about the situation of the cultivators. However, on his face, Zachary, of course, would not reveal anything unusual. He said lightly, "Don't need to omit anything. Tell me everything you know in detail." Lei Lao sighed softly and slowly began to tell the story.
"In this era of industrial development, the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth is much thinner than before. Many cultivation sects that have been passed down for a long time have died because of various reasons in this era. The remaining ones that can hold on until now are basically some of the large sects and the forces that have been supported by the official power."
"And the sect I was in before was one of the countless small sects that were destroyed. My sect is called Poison Realm. It's a small sect in the depths of the southern border. According to legend, my ancestors were a branch of the Young Realm's cultivation clan."
"The cultivation method that Poison-rinsing Sect cultivates has been passed down for more than 500 years, Five Venoms and Yin Qi. We always rely on absorbing Yin Qi to strengthen our own poisonous skills. But with the development of time, our disciples have become more and more difficult to cultivate, and the suitable Yin Qi is said to be scarce. Coupled with the invasion of external forces, our Poison-Inspecting Sect has been struggling. Ten years ago, only I and a young disciple were left."
"Just as I was about to pass on all my techniques and cultivation to my disciple, and then quietly retire, our Poisonous Border Sect was attacked by an unknown force, and in the end, our sect perished. That last disciple of mine didn't even know the end of his life. I was the only one who spared my life and managed to escape. I was still struggling outside."
At this point, the slippery Lei Lao raised his head and looked up. With tears on his face, he shouted in pain, "I, Lei Yun, shame for my ancestors and the disciples of the Poisonous Border Sect. I let the Poisonous Border Sect be destroyed by me. I, Lei Yun, am guilty!"
Hearing Elder Lei's voice, for some unknown reason, Zachary felt a strange feeling from the bottom of his heart.
After calming down, Lei Lao regained his composure and continued, "I managed to escape that year, but I was seriously injured and worried about being hunted by them. Therefore, I could only wander around and live a vagrant life. I dare not reveal my identity as a cultivator."
"Who on earth is that force?" Zachary asked.
Lei Elder sighed and said, "After I escaped, I inquired about the forces while healing my wounds secretly. Until five years ago, I heard that their name was 'Five Yues'. They seemed to have the support of the official force. They have been searching for cultivators like me in different places."
"Wuyue! An official background!" Hearing this, Zachary couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect that there was such an organization specially aimed at cultivators in the official forces. It seemed that he had to be more careful in his cultivation in the future.
Chapter 285
Chapter 285
"Do you have any other news about Wu Yue?" Zachary asked.
Lei Lao shook his head and said, "I'm all alone, and I don't dare to easily show my face, so I have no means of gathering information. In addition, in recent years, the organization of Wu Yue seems to have become much more low-key. It rarely shows itself, and its attention on cultivators seems to have dropped a lot. In short, just like before, the matter of posting wanted posters all over the country and hunting me down has never happened again."
After that, Zachary talked with Lei Lao for a while. After he did not get any new information, Zachary asked Lei Lao to go back first.
With the temptation of the original version of refining ointment, Zachary believed that Lei Lao would not return without returning.
By the time Zachary finished tidying up the messy storage room, the sky had already turned white. The orange sun crossed the meandering mountain lines in the distance and suddenly shone with dazzling brilliance, instantly enveloping everything between heaven and earth in a golden ocean. The cold night was also completely expelled at this moment.
Looking at the rising sun, Zachary took a deep breath and then sent a text message to Elder Song, telling him that the matter had been solved and he could come back today.
Perhaps because he was worried about his family, Mr. Song woke up early and quickly texted Zachary back. Then an hour later, Mr. Song and Song Yunjia came back with their luggage.
Zachary didn't hide anything. He told them that Elder Lei took in Yin Qi and caused Song Yunjia to fall ill. At the same time, he called Elder Lei to apologize. Of course, Zachary didn't say much about the cultivation that Elder Lei said. Soon, Mr. Lei rushed over and immediately apologized to Mr. Song and Song Yunjia.
The two saw that Elder Lei was so old. He didn't mean to do it, and Song Yunjia's illness was also cured. They didn't complain about it and forgave Elder Lei for his mistake this time.
Mr. Lei was indeed experienced and clever. Finally, he got a decent antique wine glass from nowhere and gave it to Mr. Song as a gift of compensation. The result made Mr. Song unable to feel angry at all. Instead, he smiled happily. Later, Zachary gave Song Yunjia some prescriptions to nurse her health and then left the Song family.
After Song family's thing came to an end, Zachary came to Rende Chinese Medicine University. On the one hand, he wanted to tell Song Yunfei's story for a long time so that she could rest assured. On the other hand, he wanted to check the school's current teaching progress.
Due to the influence of the school student's last drop of school, there were only over 20 students left in the first class of the school.
Compared with this, it was the so-called "Medicinal Chinese Medicine School" created by Ma Yuan. With its attractive publicity posters and Qian Dong, who was the first student of Rende Traditional Chinese Medicine University, who had retired from school before, who had vigorously publicized Qian Dong's medical skills and teaching effects, many people had been misled and joined this medical school.
In less than a month, the school had already opened three classes, with more than forty people in each class, a total of 120 people. Ma Yuan made a lot of money by doing this.
Zachary didn't pay attention to this at all, because he knew that Ma Yuancai taught him in such a way. Sooner or later, the school would be ruined.
After seeing the situation of Mr. Geng and the students, Zachary was more at ease. After this period of cooperation, Mr. Geng's teaching method was more suitable for the students' interest.
And the students studied harder and more seriously, especially those students who had basic knowledge, after this period of study, in general knowledge of Chinese medicine, the identification of herbal medicine, the identification of acupoints, the acupuncture, and so on, were very solid. Among them, one or two students had reached the level of treating some simple diseases according to the symptoms.
As for Vanessa, she was still in the provincial capital, so she could only hand over the management work of the school to her assistant temporarily.
After leaving Rende Traditional Chinese Medicine School, Zachary came to Lorenzo Road International again. He happened to meet Lauren, who invited him for a meeting.
In the conference room, there were already three people sitting at the moment. In addition to Lauren and Noah, who Zachary was familiar with, there was a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses. He was Zhu Wei, the fifth shareholder of Dayuan pharmacy.
"You're here, sit down. We're discussing our next strategy, the beauty removing scars and frost." Lauren said as she greeted Zachary.
"The information Boss Zhu gave us is very important, so for this point, I have made a special deployment..." Lauren explained it in detail.
After she told the story, Zhu Wei added some of his own views.
Later, Li Xiao also opened his mouth with a smile and said, "In terms of channel, we just reached an agreement with the wide- Catalyst commercial company, which is the channel of the provincial capital. Our new channel company will have full capital to buy the wide- Catalyst commercial company. As for this acquisition, I..."
After listening to their story, Zachary's confidence in removing scars from his face grew stronger. After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't know much about business. You can decide on your own. I just heard you mention the propaganda. In the propaganda, I have some relationships with you in the provincial capital..."
After hearing about Zachary's relationship with him, Lauren and the others were even more overjoyed. They quickly asked Zachary to call him to get in touch with him.
In this way, Lorenzo Road International began to get busy here. As for Zachary, he became idle later on.
In this way, time was flowing like water. Soon, the local young people's business gathering in Ludington City was held. Zachary, together with Lihang and Lin Mingyu, came to the meeting place again.
Compared with the first gathering, Zachary's reputation in Ludington City this time was undoubtedly much greater than before. However, compared to the sensation brought by the Huahao refining ointment and the treatment of Ell Corrodation, the Lorenzo Road International Group under Zachary's name this time seemed to have suffered a slide on the scar removing frost.
Therefore, all the young elites of the business world present looked at Zachary in a strange way. Some of them even bluntly said that Zachary's previous success was just luck. This failure was the embodiment of his real business level. Zachary, however, did not comment on this. He did not have much confidence in his own business ability. Of course, his focus was not on these things.
Zachary didn't care about the greetings and greetings at the party. He found himself a seat and sat down to drink while holding a glass of wine, which was quite different from others'.
Just as Zachary was eating and drinking, on the balcony next to the river on one side of the venue, Crazy Wu City was still dressed like a chicken crown. He was holding a glass of red wine in his hand and said to a charming beautiful secretary beside him, "What did my dad say on the phone?"
The beautiful secretary said, "Young Master Kuang, the president told you to be careful at the party. He said that he felt something was wrong. Recently, Lorenzo Road International was a little quiet."
Wu Cheng broke into a peal of laughter. "Father is getting old, and he's getting timider and timider. What are you talking about being cautious about? Business requires people to pay attention to the nature of the industry. How are you going to attract people's attention if you're being careful? How are you going to do business?"
"As for Lorenzo Road International, it's not calm at all. I think there's nothing we can do about it. It's a dead water. During this period of time, our sales of beautifying and removing scars and frost will make them farther and farther away," Wu Cheng said with a smile.

Chapter 286
His eyes moved and suddenly fell on a fat young man inside. He smiled and walked over with a glass of wine. "I'll go to say hello to Mr. Wong of the Four Seasons Group. Call my dad and tell him that I will handle it on my own. Tell him not to worry about it." These words were said to the secretary by Wu Cheng.
With the increasing number of personnel, the gathering gradually became enthusiastic. People who were familiar with each other gathered together to discuss the latest business information and discuss business cooperation, each and every one of them appearing to be very superior.
However, Zachary, who was sitting by the side eating and drinking, was finally pulled up by Lauren and Li Hangyu. He talked around and made friends with some business partners.
Just as Zachary and the others clinked glasses with a Chinese medicine equipment and finished drinking, a strange cry rang out.
"Hey, aren't you the famous young scholar and Dr. Ching! So you're here too."
Following the voice, the signature chicken head in Wu City let almost everyone recognize him in the first place.
Next to Wu Cheng, there was a fat young man. He was staring at Lauren like Brother Pig, almost drooling.
It was obvious that Wu Cheng was up to no good. Li Jiang raised his glass and said lightly, "It's you, Mr. Kuang."
Seeing this, Wu Cheng turned his eyes to Zachary and said with a smile, "Well, Dr. Ching, why don't you tell me? The man beside me is the partner that you are looking for in Lorenzo Road International."
After that, Wu Cheng looked at the crowd around him and pointed to the fat man beside him. He introduced, "This is Wang Dongwang, the son of the four-way president of the Four Seasons Group, Wang Si. He is also the partner of our pharmacy."
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly showed an expression of understanding. They were all elites of Ludington City's business. In this period of time, they certainly knew about the cooperation between Dayuan Drugstore and Siji Group, as well as the competition between Lorenzo Road International and Hengtong Group.
For a moment, many people showed a look of watching a good show. It seemed that there was going to be a good show since the two sides bumped into each other.
Feeling everyone's attention on him, Wang Dong's face showed a look of pride. He took a step forward and stretched out his fat right hand to Lauren. "Mr. Lin, we meet again," he said.
When Zachary saw this, he gently raised his glass and smiled at Lauren, saying, "Sister Lim, let's have a drink."
Lauren didn't understand Zachary's meaning at all. She glared at Zachary with her charming eyes and smiled. She gently touched the wine glass with Zachary and said, "Cheers, little Zachary."
He took the initiative to shake hands, but was ignored. Moreover, the two of them were flirting with each other. Wang Dong's face suddenly became ugly, and Wu Cheng, who was next to him, gently raised the corner of his mouth. The more Lauren and Zachary offended Wang Dong, the cooperation between Siji Group and Dayuan Healer would become closer.
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Ching, no one has ever dared to ignore my hand." Wang Dong's face was not good, and he coldly stared at Lauren and Zachary.
"Really?" Zachary glanced at him indifferently, as if he didn't care.
Seeing this, Wang Dong became even angrier and shouted, "Mr. Ching, don't you think you have to do something now?"
"I don't think I'm going to do anything!" Zachary didn't even look at Wang Dong this time.
Wang Dong was so angry that he smashed the red wine glass in his hand on the table and shouted, "Qin Haodong, I'll give you one last chance. Apologize to me now, or I may forgive you."
His words were naked and arrogant, with a disgusting feeling.

Hearing this, Zachary's eyes turned cold. He looked at Wang Dong and said coldly, "Why should I apologize to you?"
"Because I'm Wang Dong. I'm the young master of the Four Seasons Group." Wang Dong was proud and arrogant.
"So what? Do you have anything to do with me?" Zachary asked.
"You, do you believe that our Four Seasons Group will completely seal off your Lorenzo Road International." Wang Dong roared furiously. He had never seen someone who didn't give him face before.
Zachary looked at him as if he was looking at a fool. "Are you a fool? Four Seasons Group is now on the opposite side of our Lorenzo Road International Group. You have long since become our enemies. Do you think we will apologize to an enemy?"
"You're completely exterminating the last chance for your Lorenzo Road International." Wang Dong angrily said, "Since you've offended our Four Seasons Group, your Lorenzo Road International Group will definitely die."
He didn't hide his threat at all, and many people on the scene were also shocked by his words.
After all, there were quite a few of them selling goods that were all sold by the Four Seasons Group. They didn't dare to offend the Four Seasons Group, a huge avenue merchant.
During this period, the beauty's good performance in the market was not good, which could also be said to be the result of the Four Seasons Group's ban on the Lorenzo Road Group. Therefore, although Wang Dong's words were arrogant, many people thought that he really had the strength.
Seeing the looks and arguments in the eyes of the people around him, Wang Dong showed a proud look. He looked at Zachary proudly, turned his eyes to Lauren, and said proudly and greedily, "Of course, if Mr. Lin is willing to accompany me for a night, I can consider giving you Lorenzo Road International a chance."
Hearing this, Zachary's gaze instantly cooled down. With a "swoosh" sound, he poured the red wine in the glass in his hand to Wang Dong in front of him.
If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! "You, you dare to make a splash on me." Wang Dong did not expect Zachary to be so bold. He shouted, "Bodyguard, bodyguard, come and beat him up."
Wu Cheng's eyes also turned cold. He stepped forward and shouted at Zachary coldly, "You, come over and apologize to Mr. Wong immediately. Otherwise, I..." "What do you want to do? Do you want to attack him as you did last time?"
Zachary looked at Wu Cheng coldly. His cold eyes sent a chill down Wu Cheng's spine, and an invisible chill rose from the bottom of his heart.
Last time, he asked the bodyguards to fight with Zachary at the party. As a result, Zachary was completely fine. Instead, it was Zachary himself who was hit by several bottles of wine on his head and almost fainted.
The coldness in Wu Cheng's heart made him turn his tongue and said, "Otherwise, my drugstore and Four Seasons Group will not let go of you."
"Are you on the same road as us now?" Zachary sneered and said, "Furthermore, we, Lorenzo Road International, have never been afraid of a motley crew like you."
"A motley crew!"
Everyone was stunned. Zachary actually said that the biggest drug pharmacist in Ludington City at the moment, Da Yuan Drugstore and the most powerful channel in the province, Four Seasons Group, were a motley crew. Hearing this, Wu Cheng sneered and said, "During this period, our beauty removing scars and frost has made it difficult for you Lorenzo Road International's beauty to recover from scars and frost. What a joke!"
It had to be said that many people agreed with Wu Cheng's words. After all, this was a shopping mall, and business performance was the only standard to determine the winner. During this period of time, there was no doubt that beauties, scars, and frost had the upper hand.
At this moment, Wang Dong also wiped the wine on his face. He looked at Zachary and Lauren with cold eyes, glanced at Wu Cheng, and said, "Master Wu, call us right now and let's start our plan."
"Okay, I'll show them now what it means to cry." Wu Cheng sneered and took the mobile phone from the female secretary at the same time. At the same time, Wang Dong also took out his mobile phone.
Chapter 287
Chapter 287
Wang Dong took a look at Zachary and Lauren and picked up the phone in his hand. He said in a voice that could be heard by everyone on the scene, "Yes, I am Wang Dong. I am following my orders, and now the channel of our Four Seasons Group. You can't miss anything when you seal off all the products of Lorenzo Road International, Huahao Group and Hengtong Group."
The entire hall was shocked by these words. This was absolutely shocking news. If the Four Seasons Group had only sealed off the scar creams and scars of the Lorenzo Road Corporation, then now it was completely sealed off. Furthermore, it was covered with the products of the Hengtong Corporation.
For a time, many people looked at Lauren and Zachary strangely. Some of them were curious, some were pitiful, some were regretful, and some were excited.
Seeing this, the proud expression on Wang Dong's face was almost overflowing. His eyes constantly lingered on Lauren and Zachary, with a feeling of a victor looking down from above.
"Master Wu, you can start now." Wang Dong looked at Wu Cheng with a proud smile.
Wu Cheng took a look at them and connected to his mobile phone, saying, "I am Wu Cheng, and according to my command, from now on, all channels of our company's beauty removing scars and frost will be sold at 30% of the price. Yes, all of them!"
The decision made by Wu Cheng made the venue, which was already in a state of shock, excited.
Compared with the beauty face removing scar cream, the beauty removing scar cream made by Da Yuan was a bit lower in terms of price. Now, Wu Cheng decided to sell it at 30% of the price. Such a fierce price battle was obviously aimed at Lorenzo Road International's beauty removing scar cream.
As you can imagine, after the reduction in the price, beauty removing scars and frost, what kind of buying tide would happen? How to combine the sale of Siji Group? Everyone seemed to see the tragic scene of Lorenzo Road International's collapse.
At this moment, almost everyone's eyes were on Lauren's and Zachary's faces. Many of them wanted to see a look of panic on their faces.
But to their disappointment, at this moment, there was no unusual expression on the faces of the two people. They were still the same as before, and there was even a faint smile on the corners of their mouth, which made them look very comfortable.
In an instant, many people were puzzled. How could these two people still be so calm in this situation? Were they really not afraid of the joint attack of Four Seasons Group and Dayuan Drugstore? Or did they have other methods? Or, they completely gave up their beauty to remove scars and frost.
Seeing this, Wang Dong looked at Lauren, rubbed his fat hands and smiled proudly, "President Lin, it's time. You don't have to pretend to be innocent. If you obey me now, I can call you immediately and take back my order."
Wu Cheng, who was standing aside, also looked at Zachary and said with a smile, "Zachary, if you kneel down to beg me for forgiveness now, I can withdraw my order."
Seeing that they were sure to win, the people around them were also interested in it and wanted to see how Zachary and Lauren would deal with it.
Zachary was unhurried. He raised his arm and looked at the time. Then he looked at Lauren with a smile and said, "It's almost time!" Lauren nodded and replied, "It should be about time."
The words of the two people immediately aroused everyone's interest, and they began to speculate what the two said about " almost done".
Of course, Wu Cheng and Wang Dong still did not believe it. They looked at the two people coldly and said, "Don't put on an act. We'll give you the last three minutes to think about it and make a decision immediately, otherwise..." Before the two of them could finish speaking, they suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps.
All the people on the scene turned their eyes at once, and when they saw the figure rushing towards them, they were all shocked.
Among them, Wu Cheng and Wang Dong were the most surprised. Looking at the figures in a hurry, they asked almost at the same time, "Dad, why are you here?"
However, at this moment, the two people who came in a hurry did not pay attention to the shouts of Wu Cheng and Wang Dong. They walked quickly to Zachary and Lauren, and said anxiously and fawningly, "President Qin, President Lin, this is really a misunderstanding. Please show your mercy."
"Dad, what the hell are you talking about? Why are you so polite to them?" Wu Cheng stepped forward, walked to Wu Dongyuan in a suit, and asked in confusion.
Wu Dongyuan twisted his face, glared at Wu Cheng and shouted, "Shut up."
On the other side, a short and even shy man bowed to Zachary and Lin Qingyu and said, "President Lin, President Qin, this time, my son was too reckless. Please don't mind."
"Dad, what are you talking about? Master Wu and I joined hands to deal with them just now. What do you mean by this?" Wang Dong asked in confusion.
"Bad boy, it's all your fault." The sloppy man glared at Wang Dong and shouted angrily.
This short man was the famous Wang IV, Wang Dong's father. He was born in his old age and had always been very fond of Wang Dong, his only son. He gave him everything he wanted. But now, Wang Si was angry with his only son, which was rare to see.
"Principal Wu, Mr. Wong, the two young masters just announced that they would jointly block us. What do you mean?" Zachary looked at the two bosses in front of him and said lightly.
If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!
After hearing this, the two turned around and shouted at their son, "Evil son, come and apologize to Mr. Ching and Miss Lim."
Wu Cheng and Wang Dong were stunned. They didn't understand why their father suddenly changed his attitude towards Lauren and Zachary. He was so polite to them and even feared them.
Wang Dong was spoiled and grew up. At this moment, he lost face in front of so many people. How could he let it go? He didn't even listen to Wang Qiannian's words and shouted directly, "Dad, are you old and muddleheaded? We are the Four Seasons Group. Do we need to be humble to these two nameless soldiers?"
Although Wu Cheng did not speak, he did not intend to move. Obviously, he used this kind of behavior to express his confusion and resistance to Wu Dongyuan's words.
Wang Sifu didn't think that his son wouldn't even listen to his words. He was angry and furious as he roared, the veins on his forehead almost popping out. "Beast, do you know what you're doing? You're pushing the Four Seasons Group into hell."
Wu Dongyuan, who was standing aside, was also angry and anxious. He shouted at Wu Cheng, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and come over and apologize. Otherwise, we, Da Yuan pharmacy, will be finished."
When Wang Dong and Wu Cheng saw their father's angry and anxious look, they also felt that something was wrong. However, they couldn't figure out what tricks Lauren and Zachary had up their sleeves to make them act like this. So Wu Cheng said to Wu Dongyuan, "Dad, what happened on earth? Tell me more about it. If I did something wrong, I'll change it."
Wang Dong also nodded and said, "Yes, dad, tell me! What did you do when you shouted and made a fuss?"
"You..." Wang Si was so angry that he almost fainted.
The expression on Wu Dongyuan's face was also complicated and changed, and finally turned into helplessness. He sighed and said, "There is no other way, I have no way to deal with you, an evil son of mine." After that, he turned his head and waved his hand behind his back, and suddenly a man in a suit and slidabl's clothes came over.
Chapter 288
Chapter 288
The business suit secretary walked to Wu Cheng and Wang Dong, took out a tablet computer, and clicked on it a few times quickly, and suddenly a video appeared.
Soon, Wang Dong recognized the scene in the picture and said, "Isn't this the entertainment channel of the provincial TV station?"
The secretary did not speak. The video on the tablet continued to play, and the voice from inside came to the ears of everyone.
"Dearing face removing scar cream, scar gone without a trace!"
The nearby Wucheng and Wangdong saw more clearly, and the screen was playing the advertisement of Qiao Xiaoxiao's spokesperson for removing scars. Moreover, unlike the previous advertisements, this time at the end of the advertisement, it was deliberately added a line of subtitles to explain, guarding against fake and inferior products.
This was obviously talking about the facial beauty and removing scars and frost made by the drug made with Da Yuan medicine.
Seeing this advertisement, the muscles on Wu Cheng's face trembled, but there was no big change.
Wang Dong was also puzzled and said, "Although the provincial TV station's entertainment channel is the most popular channel in our province, it's just a advertisement. What's there to be surprised about? With the financial resources of our two families, we can buy three to five advertisements time."
Wu Cheng also nodded and turned his head to look at his angry father. He curled his lips and said, "Even if the advertisement is released, there is no way to sell it. What's the use of it? It's just a waste of money."
The people around also roughly understood the contents of the picture, and they all showed puzzled expressions on their faces. After all, it was just a advertisement. How could Wu Dongyuan and Wang Si be so excited and come to apologize to Zachary and Lauren in such a hurry?
However, listening to the surrounding puzzled discussions and gazes, the expressions on Wang Sibei and Wu Dongyuan's faces did not change at all, but became even gloomier.
At this time, the secretary closed the advertisement video, opened another news website, and clicked on the financial website. Suddenly, a striking title came into view.
"The senior channel, Shang Guanghong's business was acquired, and its owner is Ludington City Hengtong Group."
At the sight of this message, Wu Cheng's face suddenly changed.
The people who caught sight of the title of the news were also surprised.
Everyone present was familiar with the name of Guang Hong Trading Company, especially Wang Si. Guang Hong Trading Company was the largest channel of the Four Seasons Group in the province before Wang Si was in power. It could be said that it was at the top of the world.
However, with the rise of Siji Group and the decisions made by the commercial leaders of Hong Kong Company, over the years, the market of Hong Kong's commercial company was declining again and again. Now, it was only about the same as Da Yuan and big money.
However, compared with them, Guanghong also had its own advantages. That was, the deep foundation accumulated over so many years had been irreplaceable in the hearts of many old customers.
Now, the Hengtong Group with powerful financial strength had all the resources to buy the rich-established Guanghong commercial markets. With the two of them working together, it could be said that there was a significant change in the Province's channel business market.
With the support of Guanghong's business channels, the appearance removing scars and frost would definitely have a further increase in sales with the explosion of advertisements on the entertainment TV station. In this regard, some people looked at Zachary and Lauren with a slight change in their eyes.
However, at this moment, Wang Dong still showed a face of disdain. He said to his father, Wang Si, "Even if we buy the half-dead Guanghong, what use is there in it? With the current superiority of our Four Seasons Group, will we be caught up by them?"
Wang Dong's words were extremely arrogant, but also reasonable. Given the current position of Siji Group, even if Guangming's business had been injected with the capital of Hengtong Group, it was almost impossible for it to catch up, not to mention surpass it.
And as long as the Four Seasons Group's channel was there, Da Yuan pharmacy's cosmetic surgery and scar removing frost, it could be said that they were in a stable position.
Under such circumstances, there was no need for Wang Sirang and Wu Dongyuan to be in such a hurry.
But at this moment, Wang IV didn't say anything in the face of his son's words. He just sighed and shook his head, and his face was full of disappointment.
Wu Dongyuan's face was also filled with uncertainty. He looked at his son, Wu Cheng, and glared at him. The fire in his eyes was about to burn him to death.
Seeing the horrifying look in his father's eyes, Wu Cheng was confused. He could not understand why his father was acting like this.
At this moment, the secretary closed the news web interface and clicked on another video.
"The provincial TV station's news channel!"
This time, someone recognized him faster.
In the video, an anchor sitting uprightly was broadcasting a piece of news with a serious look.
The black title on the news made Wu Cheng's mind go black. He felt as if there was a bomb in his head and he almost passed out.
"The hot sale item has beauty removing scars and frost, including three types of banned drugs."
As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.org is your destination for the complete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away!
"Today, the emerging cosmetic beauty products 'beauty and scar removing frost' are sold in the hot within the province. According to the relevant department's investigation, this cosmetics contains at least three forbidden items that are forbidden to be added in at least three countries. After open and secret investigation by reporters, a lot of customers have found that their skin is itchy and their skin is red and swollen after refining the cosmetics. Among them, there are three patients who have an urgent illness and have been sent to the hospital for treatment..."
In the video, all the people present were stunned by the broadcast of the anchor. They didn't even dare to breathe heavily.
"... pay close attention to the activities of the relevant departments in the province. A special group has been set up. It talks about the drugstore Renewal' gloating scars and frost' as well as the main channel, Four Seasons Group, to conduct a closed-off investigation. Among them, the three prohibited items are..."
Listening to the play in the news, the attitude of Wu Cheng and Wang Dong, who had been indifferent before, finally had a huge change at this moment.
This was especially true for Wu Cheng. At this moment, his face was filled with an expression of disbelief, confusion, and anger.
"Bastard, I was under everyone's pressure this time and gave you so much power and so many resources to take full responsibility for the cosmetics incident. What did you do? Tell me the truth." Wu Dongyuan roared in anger. Wu Cheng's face was still full of disbelief, and he kept shouting, "Impossible, it's impossible! The formula of beauty-aiding and scar cream is the core secret of my personal responsibility. How can it be so easy to leak out?" "Did you add those three things?" Wu Dongyuan roared and gave Wu Cheng a slap.
According to the news, the three items were all added under the state's order to make cosmetics. But now, Wu City had taken a risk and added illegal items to make cosmetics without his knowledge.
Wu Cheng did not expect his father to hit him. His eyes instantly turned red as he roared, "So what if I've added it?"
"So what if it's added? That's illegal goods. Do you know how much this will have an impact on beauty and scar removing frost, and even on the medicine we are making?" Wu Dongyuan was really angry.
The impact of this incident was just cosmetics. He could abandon it directly, at most more than one billion yuan of loss. But with the news reports, the pharmaceutical industry of Da Yuan pharmacy would definitely be greatly affected, and it was likely that the enterprise would directly close down.
Security was a high pressure chain that could never be touched in enterprises like drugs and food. The consequence of the shocking "Three X milk powder" incident, as well as the sudden closure of the Huang Group, was still fresh in his mind.
Chapter 289
Chapter 289
But Wu Cheng, who had always been arrogant, would not easily accept other people's criticism. Even if it was his father, he could not help but shout, "In the current cosmetics industry, which company doesn't take those rules into account and add these things. I just do things according to the industry's hidden rules. What's wrong with me?"
"You still said that you were not wrong?" Wu Dongyuan was angry and slapped him again.
But this time, Wu Cheng blocked Wu Dongyuan's slap with one hand and shouted, "You are talking about me, what qualifications do you have to talk about me? You are responsible for the medicine production, aren't you inside..." "Shut up!" Wu Dongyuan was going crazy. He didn't expect this bastard to be so good-for-nothing. On such an occasion, he actually exposed his company's secret in the pharmaceutical industry.
At this moment, he couldn't care about anything else. As soon as he gave the order, the bodyguards who came with him suddenly pressed Wu Cheng to the ground.
Seeing Wu Cheng being pressed to the ground by the bodyguards like a dead dog, Wang Dong's fat body couldn't help but tremble, and he looked at his father, Wang Silang. Wang Si shook his head, but did not say anything.
The exposure of the banned items this time was definitely a huge obstacle for the drugstore. If they couldn't get through it, it was very likely that it would go bankrupt.
The influence it had on the Four Seasons Group wasn't that great, but it couldn't be underestimated either. After all, they definitely had responsibilities such as investigating and investigating. Even more frightening was that taking advantage of this opportunity, the Four Seasons Group would definitely be madly pushed aside by their competitors, and it was possible that they would report negative news at any time.
After suppressing the two useless sons, Wu Dongyuan and Wang Si forced an ugly smile on their faces. They moved closer to Zachary and Lauren and said, "Mr. Ching, Mr. Lin, this time, it was us who gave them a hard time. When we go back, we will definitely give them a hard time."
"To express our apology to President Lin and Director Qin, I, Wu Dongyuan, promise that we will immediately put down beautycoating and removing scars and frost to completely stop the production of beauty and removing scars and frost. We will never compete with your company's beauty to remove scars and frost." Wu Dongyuan said in a fawning manner.
Hearing this, Lauren glanced at him and said faintly, "This kind of thing broke out. Boss Wu, do you still dare not to put on beauty to remove scars and frost?"
Zachary sneered and said, "Boss Wu, you really have a good plan. Originally, you were forced to lower yourself, but now you sell it to us as a benefit."
Wu Dongyuan laughed dryly, but did not dare to refute anything. This was because he really wanted to take the opportunity to sell Zachary and the others a favor. Now that he had been exposed in front of everyone, he was also thick-skinned. He continued to smile and said, "It's my fault. In order to express our sincerity, if Miss Lim and Mr. Ching are willing, we are willing to cooperate with Huahao Group."
This was a show of weakness. After all, the drugstore now was the biggest drugstore in Ludington City. In industry, there was also an overlapping part with the health products of Huahao Group.
Hearing this, many people showed excitement and surprise on their faces. After all, such an opportunity was a great opportunity for Huahao Group to develop.
To everyone's surprise, Zachary and Lauren looked at each other and said lightly, "Thank you for your kindness, Boss Wu. But our Huahao Group is used to developing independently."
Wu Dongyuan's face suddenly became so gloomy that it seemed like it was going to drip out water.
At this moment, Wang Sifu also opened his mouth and said, "In order to apologize, our Four Seasons Group is willing to remove the blocking of the path to remove scars and frost on the beautiful faces. At the same time, all the products of Lorenzo Road International and Huahao Group will be given to Li 5%. Mr. Ching and Miss Lim, please raise your hand high."
Hearing this, Zachary said faintly, "President Wang, your words are too serious. We don't have so much power. I think it's better to investigate this matter strictly. After all, this is an important matter that concerns the interest rights." Hearing this, Wang Sirang and Wu Dongyuan's faces fell instantly. They stared at Zachary and Lauren gloomily and shouted in a low voice, "Miss Lim and Mr. Ching, are they going to completely turn against us and Four Seasons Group?" "I'm sorry, but we didn't seem to have much to do with you," Lauren said indifferently.
"President Lin, it won't do you any good if you force us into a corner!" Wu Dongyuan said, gritting his teeth.
Hearing this, Zachary snorted and said, "Boss Wu, are you threatening us? I don't like threats the most. If there is nothing else, I'm sorry, I won't accompany you."
After that, Zachary held Lauren's slender waist and turned to leave.
"Zachary, Lauren, you..." Wu Dongyuan gritted his teeth and glared at them. Then he left with Wu Cheng with a gloomy face.
Next to him, Wang Sifu's face was covered with dark clouds, and he left with Wang Dong.
At this moment, everyone in the venue was silent. Almost everyone's eyes were focused on Zachary and Lauren, and their faces were full of shock.
Especially those who were just questioning Zachary's talents in business were slapped in the face almost in the blink of an eye. The reason why they were so calm in the face of Wu City's provocation was not because they were afraid or gave up, but because they had a well-thought-out plan and had already arranged a backup plan behind it.
What would happen if he had such an opponent? At the thought of it, many people felt a chill in their hearts.
On the side of the venue, Zachary, Lin Qingyu, and Noah picked up a red wine glass, gently clinked it, looked at each other with a smile, and then drank it up.

What happened today was, of course, something that had been arranged behind their backs in the past few days.
Among them, Zhu Wei, the former drug dealer, was the one who disclosed the fact that beauty- migrate and scar-removing formula added prohibited items. And it was Li Xiao who took charge of the acquisition of Guangming's business. As for the propaganda of the TV stations and news media, it was Zachary who made a phone call to Dean Liu of the provincial capital and explained his meaning. Dean Liu immediately went to do it.
This young business gathering came to an end in this extremely surprising change.
The next day, with the attention of the news media and official organizations in the provincial capital, almost all media in the whole province reported about beauty and scar disinfection.
The facial beauty and scar removing frost were all expelled, and the drug made by Dayuan was also detected by the other departments in Ludington City. The Four Seasons Group, as a channel trading company, was also investigated. Then, they successively reported that the Four Seasons Group illegally bribed people and took away the land and other news by violent means. It could be said that people pushed down the wall when people pushed them.
Just like that, in less than a week, the originally glorious Da Yuan pharmacy and Four Seasons Group seemed to have fallen into a state of eternal damnation.
The assets of the drug making decreased sharply. The major shareholders of the company were severely dissatisfied with Wu Dongyuan and Wu City's father and son. They sold their shares one after another, but it was inevitable to make a big loss.
On the contrary, Zhu Wei, who had quit earlier, had made a great profit in comparison with Lauren.
At the same time, with the support of Guanghong's business channels, another round of advertising explosions with Qiao Xiaoxiao, coupled with the sales spread of the previous post. The sales of Hongyan's pretty face continued to increase, especially in the provincial capital, where it was the start of fashion trend in the province, it was enthusiastically sought after by many women. Among them, there were no lack of famous female celebrities and high officials.
In this short week, the sales of the beautiful face removing scar frost had reached more than one million, which made Lorenzo Road International make a lot of money.

What was accompanied by passion of removing scars and frost was the suffering of theSEC of Da Yuan.
Due to the influence of beautycare and scar removing accident, the higher-ups had been investigated heavily by the drugstore. And the target they checked was gradually transferred from the original scar removing frost to other medicine health products in the drugstore of the drugstore.
As the investigation went deeper, more and more problems from the large amount of medicine began to be exposed. The medicine's fake advertisement, the source of the raw materials unknown, as well as various methods of bribe. In such a situation, Da Yuan pharmacy was powerless. In the end, after half a month's investigation, Da Yuan pharmacy, the biggest pharmaceutical company in Ludington City, went down the path of Huang Group and suddenly closed down. At the same time, Zachary's Huahao Group and Li Xian's Hengtong's pharmacy rehabilitation took this opportunity to expand again. In particular, Hengtong's pharmacy production had been focused on Chinese medicine health products. Therefore, almost all the Western medicine products in the wide market fell into the hands of Hengtong's pharmacy.
It could be said that in the Ludington City City, the largest pharmaceutical company had become Heng Tong's pharmacy.
At the same time, Siji Group also suffered a big loss. The various sales points under its flag were all strictly investigated by the relevant departments. Among them, one-third of the sales points were closed.
The Four Seasons Group's strength had been greatly undermined due to the huge number of penalty bills and severe reform measures. Its influence in the business channels had been greatly reduced.
Although in terms of scale, the Four Seasons Group was still the largest channel caravan in the province. However, by virtue of the hot sales of the beauty removing scar frost, the Guanghong business that was jointly purchased by the Hengtong Group and Lorenzo Road International had gradually recovered its strength and began to catch up with them.
Just when the vigorous commercial war ended, the Spring Festival officially came with the fine snowflakes flying in the air.
This year, Luocheng, who had experienced Edumbass and various political and economic struggles, seemed to have slowly calmed down at this moment and entered a festive atmosphere of reunion of thousands of families. When night fell, the fine flying snow became heavier and heavier, gradually turning into goose feather-like snow all over the sky. It hovered in the air, covering Ludington City under the cover of the night and covering him with a thick layer of white quilt.
In this snowy night where tens of thousands of lights were on, in the half-finished building in the suburb of the northern Ludington City District, two figures were standing on the top floor of the building without237. Looking at the flames and lights in the center of the city from a distance, their eyes were full of hatred.
"Dad, that brat and that bitch caused us to fall into this state. We definitely can't let them go like this," a slightly thinner figure said hatefully. His head was covered in an oilcloth with a head full of messy messy messy hair. One could vaguely make out the shape of a chicken's head.
Next to the thin figure, a deep voice rang out, "Absolutely not. Even if I, Wu Dongyuan, were to go to hell, I will drag Zachary and Lauren down with me."
"Dad, I know some brothers in the underworld. They used the money in our secret bank account abroad and asked someone to kill them." Wu Cheng said coldly.
Wu Dongyuan shook his head and said, "These people are useless. I'll contact them if I have the right person. That guy won't be able to dance for a long time with a woman."
"Good..." Wu Cheng's eyes flashed with hatred and excitement.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew the goose feather-like snowflakes onto them, which immediately made them shudder. Their bodies tilted, and they almost fell down from the unfinished building.
The two quickly took a few steps back, fear in their hearts. They wrapped themselves tightly with the oilcloth, and their eyes were filled with hatred.
While the father and son of the Wu family were blowing the cold wind, Zachary's family was bustling.
During the Spring Festival, the Rende Traditional Chinese Medicine School was on holiday. Her long-standing parents were still at home. At the best time of the year, she came to Zachary's family to celebrate the festival with him.
In addition, the goblin Lauren, who came back from work from the company, had two beautiful women, as well as friends like Dick, Noah, and Lei Lao. In Zachary's large villa, on this beautiful night of the festival, it seemed lively and warm. After a happy New Year's Eve, Zachary woke up early the next day. After exercising for a while, he turned on his phone, texted a lot of messages and received a lot of blessings from various social apps.
Zachary smiled and replied to them one by one. He had called all his friends whom he was familiar with to wish them a happy new year.
In Qiao Xiaoxiao's peaceful life in the provincial capital, Song Yunjia, who had been sick and resting at home, worked as a policewoman, Han Huihui, at the moment, and Sienna, who was in training at the best time of the year. Finally, Zachary remembered that Vanessa was still in the provincial capital and Maxwell was lonely at home alone. So he called Maxwell to say hello to him, and then drove to buy something and went to the door. The arrival of Zachary made Maxwell very happy. The two of them sat together and began to chat.
They didn't talk long before they heard the sound of cars coming from outside. They got up to have a look, only to find that Vanessa came out of the car with a lot of bags in her hand.
"Vanessa, why did you come back?" Maxwell asked with surprise.
"Grandpa, Dad saw that you were alone at home, so he asked me to come back and accompany you." Su Vanessa said with a smile.
Zachary came forward and took something from Vanessa's hand. He said with a smile, "No wonder I called you just now but didn't answer it. It must be a car ride!"
Vanessa nodded her head and then walked into the house.
Vanessa's return obviously made Maxwell even happier. The three of them sat down and chatted for a while.

Maxwell happily went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Before he went to the kitchen, he glanced at Zachary and Vanessa and said with a smile on his face, "Baiwei, grandpa still needs some time to cook. Why don't you go out with him? The snow scene is quite good."
Vanessa agreed and then went out with Zachary with a blushing face.
As they walked shoulder to shoulder, they stepped on the thick snow, making creaking sounds. Zachary noticed that Vanessa seemed to be a little excited.
So he asked, "Did Evan harass you again in the provincial capital?"
Vanessa shook her head and said, "He didn't come back during that period of time after the cafe. But my aunt always came to my house during that period and told my father these things. My dad doesn't care about these things, so I have to deal with them by myself."
Hearing what she said, Zachary began to understand Vanessa's disappointment.
Originally, she came to the provincial capital to repair the relationship between herself and her father. But she did not expect that she would be forced to marry by an excellent aunt as soon as she came over.
The matter of being forced into marriage had already agitated her. At this moment, her father's busyness and negligence would undoubtedly make Vanessa feel bad and she would not be able to feel the warmth of her family. It was understandable that she was disappointed.
These must be the reasons why Vanessa came back from the provincial capital so soon.
Zachary could do nothing about the family affairs. He could only pat Vanessa's back gently and said softly, "There is a park in front of us. Let's go and have a look."
"Yes!" Vanessa nodded and walked side by side with Zachary.
The park was built according to the water, in which the trees and flowers flourished. At this moment, it was covered with snow, showing a different kind of scenery.
Perhaps it was because of the heavy snow, although there were quite a few people in the park, it also gave off a sense of tranquility. Taking in a breath of cool and refreshing air, it immediately made one's mind tremble and feel refreshed.
