Chapter 133 – Churning out gold (1)


    Li WangJin gritted his teeth but sold 5% of his stock anyway. He thought he’d at least be able to get 2B yuan from that, but he was only able to fetch 1.5B yuan.


    Li WangJin was infuriated. In fact, he had a canker sore from being so angry. The physical and mental pain had prevented him from having a good night’s rest for days.


    And the other party felt very justified.


    “Little brother Li, you ought to know that Ayron now is not the same as Ayron from a year ago. Yourpany has had so much negative publicity as ofte and the stock price has dropped. It’s unrealistic to want to sell your stock at what it used to be worth. I am already offering you a very decent price because we are friends.”


    As far as Li WangJin was concerned, the other party was merely taking advantage of the situation that he was currently in. Yet he desperately needed money to invest and turnaround, so even though he knew full well that he was being taken advantage of, he had no choice but to go along with it.


    Heforted himself. Once he started making money from the Beautify Pills, he would never again be friendly to him even if he came crawling to him and begged.


    Things could turn around in a very short period of time, and his days woulde sooner orter.


    As furious as he was, he still transferred his stock.


    Once he had gotten hold of the money and after some more difficulties, he was finally able to secure the form for the Beautify Pills.


    Looking at the form, Li WangJin couldn’t help butugh out loud.


    He couldn’t wait to head over to Zhang Bi and handed him the form. As a pharmaceutical family, the Zhang’s background wasn’t something that he could measure up to. As soon as they have both form and the capital in hand, the factoryunched into action immediately.


    The first batch waspleted quickly. He quickly calcted the cost of it. As they were only making a small batch, the cost would naturally be higher. Even so, a box of Beautify Pills only cost about 30 yuan. Less than 100 yuan even after advertisement cost andbor. Fang JunRong had been selling them for 888 yuan a box. That was like highway robbery.


    Li WangJin tsked. He was excited. As hot as the Beautify Pills were, a million boxes a year would not be a dream if they didn’t put a cap on it. That was like churning out gold.


    Next month would be China’s Shopping Festival month.* They would be able to crank out a batch before then and put them on the market. Even though there was only two weeks left, if they hurry, that should not be an issue.


    *(T/N: 11/11 is China is like our ck Friday.)


    As it was the Shopping Festival, then they couldunch it with a series of promotional discounts. Same products, but cheaper than Fang JunRong’s, the customers would know how to choose.


    The idea of it made Li WangJin restless. After a discussion with the Zhang’s, they have decided to name the product the Cherry Blossom Pills, as in users would have cherry blossom-like skin.


    The test result from the Zhang’s hade back. The ingredients were very simr to that of Fang JunRong’s Beautify Pills. They had clinical trials as well and users did observe whitening of skin after consuming the product.


    All of the sudden, both families were very excited. They could already see mountains of silver and gold piling up in front of them. Zhang Bi, who had made this happen, had risen in status among the Zhang’s and he was high spirited.


    Zhang Bi and Li WangJin hadmonnguage when it came to badmouthing Fang JunRong. One of them would say that Fang JunRong was vile and vicious and the other one would call her maniptive. They felt like they could read each other’s mind and only wished they could be brothers.


    Zhang Bi even wanted to introduce his own sister to Li WangJin. He expressed that his sister was age-appropriate for Li WangJin, tender and virtuous, and decent looking. If they were to form a marriage alliance, they could further solidify their rtionship.


    The Zhang’s status was there for all to see. Li WangJin was very tempted. Recalling how the Deng’s had snubbed him and that even the Zhang’s were reaching out their olive branch to him. He had certainlye a long way.
