In the next two days, the herbs merchant of the He City fell into chaos.

Right off the bat, the relevant departments had received numerous anonymous reports, and those departments responded by calling up those merchants. But the profits of those merchants was only roughly ¥10,000,000 a year, and they weren’t big fishes. However, the relevant departments had treated this matter seriously as they took action immediately.

Naturally, this was done by those big fishes, trying to cover up this matter by throwing a few scapegoats out. Hence, all the fingers were pointed at those merchants who were at the bottom of the pyramid.

But after Chen Guang released another three articles, it immediately disrupted their arrangements.

“Dark secrets of the Medicine Capital, He City!”

“The original sins of herbal merchants!”

“Bloodsuckers of TCM!”

Those three articles were all deep and profound as they pointed out how those merchants gathered together to inflate the prices and suppress newcomers. At the same time, they even pointed out that these merchants had an intimate relationship with the Medicine Deity Corporation, forming into a collective interest.

Furthermore, the Medicine Deity Corporation also got exposed in the process. The crimes that Xu Tiande did when he was still alive, like how the pharmacies under his control sold prohibited products. At the same time, they even sold questionable medications.

Swept into this turbulence, the Medicine Deity Corporation’s stocks began to fall, and as the Chairman, Wang Guofeng was naturally questioned by the board of directors as all of them requested him to resign.

As the night darkens, the Three Flavour Hall was still brightly lit as Jia Xing took two deep breaths before beside his vehicle and went in. Chu Huilin was already waiting for him. When he saw Jia Xing coming in, he welcomed the latter with a smile into a room.

When Jia Xing saw a young man sitting on a chair reading a newspaper, he immediately knew that the young man must be the famous divine physician, Su Tao.

“Physician Su, nice to meet you. I have been hearing about you.” Jia Xing squeezed out a smile.

As Su Tao placed the newspaper down, he nodded his head towards Jia Xing, “Mr. Jia, nice to meet you. I’ve been hearing about you from Old Chu, and he told me that you’re a loyal person, so I’ve been wanting to meet you.”

Upon hearing Su Tao’s words, Jia Xing smiled. Su Tao wasn’t arrogant like other youngsters, and he wasn’t hateful at all.

After Jia Xing saw down, Chu Huilin prepared a cup of tea for the former as Jia Xing took a sip with complicated feelings before he spoke out, “I’ll not beat around the bush. The objective for my visit today is to ask if the cooperation that Physician Chu talked about was still effective?”

Chu Huilin smiled upon hearing that. Jia Xing reacted quickly and immediately stood on their side when there was a change in the situation.

Truth be told, Jia Xing knew well that the investigation team were practically investigating every single merchant in He City, and the reason why he wasn’t investigated was probably related to the Three Flavour Hall.

There were rumors that this turbulence was caused by Su Tao, and the reason why he wasn’t affected was due to the fact that Chu Huilin had previously met up with him and offered him a potential sales channel.

Jia Xing was a smart person, so he immediately came looking for Chu Huilin once he recovered from the shock. When Chu Huilin told him that Su Tao was also in He City, he immediately came over to have a meeting with Su Tao and see if it was true.

Casting a glance at Su Tao, Chu Huilin smiled, “It will depend on my boss if the cooperation is still effective.”

Sighing at the fact that Chu Huilin was getting more experienced in this matter, Su Tao replied, “Old Chu told me that you’re a good partner, and the quality of your goods are solid, so the cooperation still stands. However, with all the merchants in the He City holding malice for us, aren’t you worried that they might take revenge against you?”

An embarrassed smile rose on Jia Xing’s lips. Although he had no idea that Su Tao was eavesdropping in his conversation with Chu Huilin previously, he knew that Su Tao was using his own words against him.

Previously when Chu Huilin gave out an offer, Jia Xing had rejected it. But now that Jia Xing saw that the situation wasn’t looking good, he immediately turned around without any backbone.

But compared to profits, what backbone could be used for?

With a self-mocking smile, Jia Xing replied, “All the merchants in He City can’t even save their own skin, so how will they care about me? Then again, I do have to thank you.”

“Thank me?” Su Tao wore a fake smile.

“Yeah! If I guessed it correctly, you must be the reason why the investigation team still hasn’t called for me.” Jia Xing probed.

In response to Jia Xing’s words, Su Tao pursed his lips as he did not give a reply. He knew that Jia Xing was smart to figure it all out.

Mr. Xue had used his own connections to get the investigation team to contact him before coming to He City as Su Tao could provide his own opinions as someone in the industry.

Hence, Su Tao provided Mr. Xue a namelist, which became the main focus for the investigation team. In the namelist, Su Tao had excluded Jia Xing’s name, allowing Jia Xing to be spared from the turbulence.

Then again, Jia Xing might not be clean in the initial process of racking in money, but his sins were insignificant compared to other merchants, and this is also the reason why Su Tao came to look for Jia Xing.

Su Tao did not reveal his answer straight away, but Jia Xing was practically certain that Su Tao was the one behind this turbulence.

“The Medicine City is undergoing a cleansing, and the current situation will be broken apart. With that, you might become the biggest merchant here, Mr. Xia, so it’s our honor to work with you. As for the terms Old Chu offered you, it was still effective. If you’re willing, then we can get the contract signed tomorrow.” Su Tao replied as he dodged the question.

“That’s great!” Jia Xing smiled as he continued, “I have already made arrangements on my side. There won’t be an issue in the supply, and they will all be delivered in time.”

“Happy cooperation!” Su Tao shook hands with Jia Xing.

In the beginning, Jia Xing still felt a little nervous, but he never imagined that Su Tao would agree so straightforwardly. At the same time, he had a new understanding of Su Tao, a talented young man.

Through this cleansing, he had somehow become the biggest winner. Then again, it was also what he was pushing for all along.

After Jia Xing left, Chu Huilin smiled, “Boss, congratulations for resolving the issue in our supply.”

Shaking his head, Lin Yun’s eyes lit up, “This isn’t the end!”

Su Tao was already tired of Wang Guofeng’s futile challenges now.

In the East Shore Residence, a district for the rich, Wang Guofeng was feeling uneasy as he stood in the living room in a high-floor apartment. The central investigation team had addrested Lai Rong and the other merchants, and he had no idea if the Medicine Deity Corporation would be affected if those merchants told the truth.

Over the years, it wasn’t rare for those merchants to sell suspicious medicinal slices in the pharmacies under the Medicine Deity Corporation. There were even customers who became sick after taking them and filed a complaint against the Medicine Deity Corporation. But in the end, it was easily resolved by the public relations department.

But if the central investigation team were to look into it, the Medicine Deity Corporation would definitely be implicated.

Evidently, Wang Guofeng had underestimated the determination of the central investigation team. As their investigation gradually deepened, they weren’t only targeting merchants who had inflated the prices to make a profit, but pharmacies as well.

According to the current situation, the Medicine Deity Corporation was already showing signs of collapsing.

The board of directors had called for an emergency meeting, and as the Chairman, Wang Guofeng naturally had to take responsibility for this turbulence.

However, Wang Guofeng still rejoiced as he knew that Rangure wouldn’t give up on him.

As long as Rangure was still standing on his side, then it would be impossible for the board of directors to dismiss him, and he would still be the Chairman of the Medicine Deity Corporation. Wang Guofeng was confident that by relying on his resources and connection in the TCM industry, he could let the Medicine Deity Corporation soar once more.

Wang Guofeng had failed numerous times, but he never failed to get back up on his feet. Hence, he was sure that this would be the same as well.

All of a sudden, a commotion could be heard from the outside world as Rangure came in with her assistant as she locked the door.

“How is it going?” Wang Guofeng squeezed out a smile.

Shaking his head, Rangure replied coldly, “You’ve disappointed me greatly.”

When Wang Guofeng heard those words, his heart immediately went cold as he knew that he would be dismissed. In a nutshell, he now had nothing.

“Alright!” Wang Guofeng waved his hand furiously before he lowered his head, “Who will be the new Chairman?”

“Luo Ran!” Rangure replied calmly.

“Why?!” Wang Guofeng was shocked as he looked at Rangure, “Wasn’t he arrested? Why is someone like him replacing me as the Chairman?!”

“That’s because he was framed, and you’re the culprit who framed him.” Rangure shook her head with a bitter smile.

Shaking his head, Wang Guofeng was in disbelief as he replied, “You can’t do that do me! I have always been loyal to you!”

Looking at Wang Guofeng with a conflicted gaze, Rangure replied, “I have to admit that you’re a failure as a seed.”

Thereafter, she turned to her assistant, “Show him the report.”

Receiving the report that Rangure had obtained from special channels, Wang Guofeng replied coldly, “You guys actually used the Medicine Deity Corporation as a cover to commit so much crime!”

After Rangure gained complete control of the Medicine Deity Corporation, she expanded her means of operation. She even went as far as using the Medicine Deity Corporation as a shell to establish underground research facilities, and those facilities weren’t much different compared to Cambell Pharmaceutical Company’s underground research facilities.

Since someone had already found out about it, Wang Guofeng naturally had to stand out as the Chairman.

As for the mastermind, Su Tao and Xia Yu already had laid a trap for the Medicine Deity Corporation through their investigation.

Naturally, Wang Guofeng was kept in the dark as he was just a puppet.

“You’re the Chairman of the Medicine Deity Corporation, so it’s natural that you have to take the responsibility.” Rangure responded.

Wang Guofeng’s face changed drastically upon hearing that as he knew what Rangure wanted to do.

Standing beside Rangure, her robust assistant held onto Wang Guofeng’s collar and headed towards the window.

With a shatter, Wang Guofeng felt his collar loosened up as he fell from the twenty-two floors.

In a short period of time, countless memories flashed past Wang Guofeng’s mind. It was like a rollercoaster ride as he suddenly figured out that it was a terrible dream ever since he first met Rangure.

And when he finally woke up from his dream, he had already bade his farewell to the world...
