"Have you heard? The Shi family is launching a new elixir at noon today. I wonder what it will be?"
"I'm not really looking forward to it. Think about it, the Shi family is in a terrible situation now at the hands of the Chen family. If the Shi family had the pill formula at the bottom of the box, they would have taken it out long ago. Why wait until now."
"That makes sense, will you go?"
"Go, why don't you go? It's good to go and have a look."
Some dignitaries in Hongye City are discussing this matter.
Zu family, Zu Tianhong also received the invitation.
"Can'er, you can do this for me." Zu Tianhong asked with a smile. It was obvious that he had no interest in this matter. Besides, the Chen family and the Shi family were fighting now, and he didn't want to get involved.
in.
Next to him, Zu Can knew a lot of inside information.
"Dad, don't look at it. The Shi family seems to have been defeated by the Chen family. But in the end, the Shi family was able to break out of the situation and even turn defeat into victory." Zu Can said with a smile.
A person like Zu Tianhong knew immediately that there was a secret here.
"Can'er, do you know something?"
Zu Can nodded and lowered his voice: "Shi Wenjun, the head of the Shi family, has a good relationship with Brother Lin. This time the Shi family suddenly launched a new elixir, it is very likely that Brother Lin was behind the plan."
Zu Tianhong was stunned.
"Is this true?"
Zu Can nodded.
Zu Tianhong took a deep breath: "Then I definitely can't be absent. Can'er, you also go with me. If it is true, of course it will be to save the Shi family's face."
Other families in Hongye City also received invitations.
Gao family.
Because Gao Jiang is the official beast appraiser of the Beast Appraiser Association and the direct son of the Gao family, he has a high status. Whenever there is anything at home, Gao Jiang will be consulted to discuss it together.
During these days, the fight between the Shi family and the Chen family in the medicine shop and elixir business has become more and more intense. Basically, all the families and merchants in Hongye City know about it, and even many common people have heard about it.
Of course the Gao family also knew.
"It just doesn't work for the Shi family to have a woman as the head of the family now. In just a few years, the Chen family has been defeated. A few years ago, the Shi family was the first in red leaves. Now this situation is really frustrating.
It's a shame." Gao Xianming, the head of the Gao family, said, but he couldn't tell whether he was really sorry or sarcastic.
The rest of the Gao family also nodded and talked about what the Shi family was like back then and what it is like now.
At this time, Gao Xianming thought of something and asked Gao Jiang: "Jiang'er, I heard that the reason why the Chen family rose to prominence in the past few years was because of joining your animal appraiser association."
Gao Jiang nodded: "That's right. The Chen family had a very good relationship with Wang Ji when Wang Ji was here. Therefore, the medicinal materials for the entire Beast Appraisal Association were provided by the Chen family, and many of them were provided by the Chen family in some surrounding towns.
The animal connoisseur is also designated to buy medicine from the Chen family's pharmacy. Because of this, the Chen family has soared in the past few years, surpassing the Shi family in the medicine store business."
This news is obviously very insider, and most people really don't know this.
"Also, although the president has been changed this time, Chen Wenlin is very smart. He did not contact President Tan Lin rashly, but ensured the quality and quantity of the medicinal materials supplied. In this way, President Tan will not miss the opportunity.
The Chen family's position was saved even if they were replaced without any reason. Although the Shi family wanted to get involved several times, they had no way out. This time, the Chen family came to the bottom of the pot and took away all their prescriptions. This time,
If the Shi family doesn't die, I'm afraid they will lose half their lives."
"So this time the Shi family launched such a new elixir, is it true or false?" someone asked Gao Jiang.
Gao Jiang smiled, as if he knew a lot: "Well, the ancestors of the Shi family have been glorious after all. It is still possible to leave a few secret elixir recipes, but it shouldn't be able to cause any trouble. If
It works, what have they done so far? They won’t be defeated and defeated now, but our Gao family will definitely send people there this time, and we have to give people some face."
Gao Xianming nodded, thinking that he might as well let Gao Jiang go this time. After all, Gao Jiang was his son. In addition, he could take this opportunity to practice Gao Jiang's communication, so why not.
"Jiang'er, this time, please go for a trip on behalf of our Gao family." Gao Xianming said.
Gao Jiang nodded, it was enough for him to handle this small matter alone.
…
Of course, the city lord's palace also received an invitation.
As the biggest official in Hongye City, how could Shi Wenjun not invite people from the City Lord's Mansion?
Of course, I don’t know if the city lord’s palace will send someone or who they will send.
Chen family.
Chen Wenlin looked at the invitation in his hand and frowned, thinking about what the Shi family was going to do.
"New elixir? Where did the Shi family get the new elixir? It's all nonsense." Across the table, Wu Chenwei was drinking wine and tasting delicacies, feeling very at ease.
Wu Chenwei was used to being repressed before, but now he was completely indulgent. Not only did he indulge in wine and meat, but he also asked Chen Wenlin to find several women for him and hang out with him every day. Sometimes even Chen Wenlin couldn't stand it.
In the words of scholars, that is an insult to politeness.
"After all, the Shi family is deeply rooted and has an extraordinary foundation. Mr. Wu, I came to you just to ask if the Shi family really has any other prescriptions that we don't know about?"
Chen Wenlin asked very seriously at this time.
Obviously, as a businessman, Chen Wenlin knows the current situation. Although the Shi family is overwhelmed by the Chen family, the Chen family is also in a very dangerous situation, suppressing the Shi family with price. His Chen family also
You still have to pay money.
If the Shi family really made a big splash this time and introduced several useful new elixirs, there is no doubt that the blow to the Chen family would be quite huge.
In the current situation, if the Shi family does not die, it will be difficult to make up for all the investment he made before. If he fails to do so, the Chen family may be the one who dies in the end.
This is no joke, so Chen Wenlin must take it seriously.
Regarding this question, Wu Chenwei was obviously a little impatient: "How many times have I said this? It is impossible for the Shi family to have other elixirs. I have already figured out what kind of foundation their family has. In the past few years, except for
Apart from asking me to learn alchemy, you still haven't guarded against me, so don't worry about that."
After saying that, he took a sip of wine.
Chen Wenlin frowned. He looked down on people like Wu Chenwei. But because they were partners, he tolerated it. But in terms of character, people like Wu Chenwei could never be deeply friends or trusted.
Let's just say that the Shi family took Wu Chenwei very seriously, but Wu Chenwei had a twisted mentality, like a dog that was not well-raised and bit him back.
As for Wu Chenwei's background, Chen Wenlin had already checked that he had an ordinary family background. Without the help of the Shi family, it would have been impossible for him to achieve his current status.
Of course Chen Wenlin would not say these words. The more bastard Wu Chenwei is, the easier it is to control him.
When everything settles, he plans to kick this guy out, after all, he has no use value anymore.
"Well, that's the best. The Shi family invites me this time, so I'll go and have a look. Mr. Wu, do you want to go and have a look too?" Chen Wenlin just said politely. Who would have thought that Wu Chenwei didn't know
Thinking of something, he actually nodded and said: "Go, why not go."
I found out later that Wu Chenwei wanted to see the Shi family's jokes and ridicule them in public.
After knowing this, Chen Wenlin shook his head again.
