“She’s Miss Tang, who I specially invited from the capital. She’s in charge of the pharmaceutical production this time. Just listen to her and treat her as a real boss. Don’t think that she’s doing anything under the table. You’re an old employee by my side. You know what to do, right?”

Lei Jiacheng said. Usually, he did not care about his subordinates doing sneaky things. In any case, they did not earn as much as him. However, it was different now. This matter was of utmost importance. If anything happened during the process, it would become troublesome. Therefore, he did not mind reminding this factory manager of his.

The dark-skinned man was stunned. The Tang family? It can’t be that wealthy family in the capital, right?! Does the boss know such a big shot? If I can obtain the other party’s favor, won’t I have a meteoric rise in the future? He looked at the luxuriously dressed Tang Wenyi and hurriedly said, “I know, I know! No wonder I felt that this lady was different from other people!

So it’s the Tang family!”

Tang Wenyi raised her chin. This is the correct way for a normal person to speak after hearing my identity! For some reason, she suddenly felt touched. Perhaps it was because she had suffered too many setbacks from Lu Ming that she had forgotten the honor that her identity had brought!

“Let’s do what I just said. I want to see the results in three days. You can do it, right?”

Just three days?

The dark-skinned man gritted his teeth. At most, I’d get those people from the research department to work overtime. It should be very simple to make medicine, right? Moreover, according to Miss Tang, this time, it could not be considered making medicine. With so much starch, it would be more like making pastries. Won’t that be much simpler?

So he nodded and said, “No problem!”

“Alright, I’ll wait for your good news!”



In the past few days in Shanghai, Tang Wenyi basically did not wander around. Instead, she stayed in the hotel obediently and went to the factory to take a look from time to time. She was getting more and more anxious every day. After all, no one knew when the old master would return. If he returned home early and saw that she was not around, wouldn’t she be finished?

She could only pray that the preventive medicine could be made quickly.

On the third day, she woke up early to go to the factory’s office. Fortunately, the supervisor arrived ahead of her. He took out two identical white pills and said weakly, “This is the second version. We followed your orders and used starch and saccharin, as well as soup made from inferior herbs, to successfully make a new medicine.

The cost matches the standard set by the lady boss.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing heaved a sigh of relief. From the looks of it, they could finally obtain the generous return that they had calculated previously! This time, the company’s shortfall could be filled. The big trouble was easily resolved!

Tang Wenyi sniffed the two pills repeatedly and said, “One of them smells strong, and the other smells weak. Is there a bug, or is the amount used different? Is the cost the same for both versions?”

The supervisor’s expression was clearly hesitant. He slowly relaxed his clenched fists and said, “It’s different. The one on the right is the third version. The cost of making it is about 50% lower than the second version, but the ratio of things used is quite unbalanced. And the most obvious difference between it and the second version is that with the former, there’s a 100% chance that it will cause harm to the human body.”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “The researchers actually made the third edition by accident, even before the second edition. Since we only realized that something was wrong after we wrapped up, we called it the third version. In fact, we’ve been hesitating about telling you because it’s too risky.”

Even though this was not the first time he had made fake medicine, those from before would at least not hurt anyone. This time, the medicine was really risky. If the people who bought the medicine took a few more pills, they might die! None of them were willing to be executioners. Moreover, if the matter was exposed, they would definitely be jailed!

It was not worth it to lose their lives for benefits, but if they did not report this matter to the boss, the lady boss, or Miss Tang, they would definitely lose their jobs. Whether they could survive in Shanghai was a problem, let alone the capital!

In the end, they decided to take both pills. If no one realized that there was a difference, they would not talk about this matter. On the contrary, they would tell the truth. The supervisor never expected Miss Tang to be so careful. This was also thanks to Tang Wenyi being tricked often. She subconsciously wanted to see if there were any traps.

However, the other three only thought of that 50% profit!

If it was only 10 or 20 yuan, they would definitely not have an answer so quickly. They could not be blamed for not having the willpower. It was just that the profits were too high! It was so high that they would rather disregard the lives of others to get so much money! This time, not only would they not have to worry about the company’s shortfall, but they would also be able to successfully jump ranks. Tang Wenyi could also show off in front of the elders of the family!

Only the people who did not know the truth would be harmed.

“Very good! You’ve exceeded your expectations this time. I’ll give the research department a bonus. As for your bonus, we won’t forget about it. From today onwards, get your workers to start producing the third version of the preventive medicine. Food and accommodation will be settled in the factory. You’re not allowed to leave without completing the target number. Report to me if anything happens.”

Lei Jiacheng arranged everything clearly with a wave of his hand. The reason why he was so cautious was to prevent the news from being leaked. If someone secretly told the truth about them making the medicine, wouldn’t they die before they could succeed? Therefore, they had to be careful!

There was no joy on the supervisor’s face. Instead, he stood rooted to the ground as if he had been struck by lightning.

After saying those words just now, he wanted the three of them to consider it carefully. It was best to use the second version because one could not be too blinded by benefits. He wanted to gamble on the other party’s conscience, but who knew that they did not care about the lives of ordinary people at all and resolutely chose the third version. His sense of morality began to weigh heavily on him till he could barely breathe. Aren’t I an accomplice?

What should I do?

Xu Xiaojing seemed to see his hesitation and said, “Why? Do you want to expose us? I advise you not to do that. At that time, you might not even be able to live to see the sun tomorrow. If you agree, you will receive a generous reward. After that, I will also arrange for you to enter the upper echelons of the company.

Moreover, even if you want to develop in the capital, it’s easy with Miss Tang around. You should understand how to weigh the pros and cons, right?”
