The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became relaxed.“Now, the first issue we need to solve is the security of the company's livestreamers. If this goes on, we can forget about everything else. The company's livestreaming business won't even be able to operate normally."Jasmine frowned. She seemed a little troubled.Those hooligans were only verbally harassing them and refusing to let them leave. There were no actual physical acts of aggression. Even if they filed a report to the police, it was likely nothing would be done.They couldn’t possibly let Frederick transport them to and from work every day, could they?"I have a solution for this." Frederick smiled.Jasmine looked at him in surprise. "What is it?""Isn't the apartment building next to our office a project developed by Prospersa Corporation? We'll just ask them for it," Frederick said in a casual tone. He made it sound like he was asking for a bun rather than a building.Jasmine shook her head helplessly.
"You said it yourself!" Frederick responded hastily, his eyes bright. "So what if I did? Just give up. It won't happen! There'd be a lot of resistance from the board of directors even if I sold it to you for 3.7 billion." Jennifer felt a little speechless."Don't worry about that. Convene a meeting with the board of directors tomorrow. I'll convince them!" Frederick smiled mysteriously."If you think you can force them to agree with your unreasonable demands based on your reputation from the last board meeting, think again. The group welcomed new directors a few days ago. One of them is the firstborn of a big family. He won't be afraid of you," Jennifer warned. She feared Frederick might stir up trouble at the board meeting.Frederick was a little surprised. "A big family? How big?" "The people of Drakonia depend on his family's businesses for clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Do you get how big it is now?" Jennifer asked.Frederick raised his eyebrows. "Why would su
“You only know how to match the medicinal properties, but you don't know that the different proportions of each medicinal herb can affect the outcome of the medicine. In that case, you're only an arrogant person who thinks he's better than everyone else." Frederick sneered, shaking his head. He picked up the prescription, and stood up to leave.“Stop right there!” the elder shouted angrily. His face had turned red.“Is there anything else I can help you with?” Frederick asked indifferently, looking at him."Who are you to judge me like that? Why wouldn't I understand such simple logic? On the other hand, how would a brat like you even understand something that an experienced man like me finds simple? I'm not worried about people who are uneducated, but I'm worried about people like you who have only scratched the surface of certain knowledge and go around acting like you know it all! Traditional medicine can save lives, but it can also get people killed. You have to take it seriou
"What's hard about that?" Frederick chuckled."Are you kidding? The refining process is so difficult that even I can't guarantee I could make it work!" The elder brought out a pill-making furnace, and placed it on the table."Come on. I'd like to see if you're truly talented or just an ignorant fool!""A pill-making furnace? I never use one of these things when I refine pills!"Frederick glanced at the pill-making furnace disdainfully.The next moment, he slapped his palm on the table. The table didn’t move at all, but the medicinal herbs in the basket all flew up into the air!“T-This is Floral Dispersion! Throughout Drakonia, there are less than five people who know this pill-making technique!” the elder exclaimed in disbelief, stunned. “That's not all.”Frederick smiled slightly, and waved his hand around. The medicinal herbs scattered in the air before coalescing into a ball.“Sand Tower Formation! Another ancient pill-making technique!"The elder's jaw dropped.The m
The elder's facial expression stiffened. After a long time, he chuckled bitterly and shook his head."After meeting you today, I realize how far behind I am in my medicinal pursuit."In reality, the elder's level of medicinal pursuit wasn’t low at all. In fact, he was one of the best in the traditional medicine community of today.Very few people even knew that the receptionist of this small pharmacy was actually the last president of Drakonia's Traditional Medicine Association. The elder had witnessed too much nastiness in the business. Disheartened, he chose to retire."I still don't know what this pill is used for. Could you tell me?" he asked. The elder was ashamed to admit that he couldn't figure out the pill's usage, despite how Frederick had shown him the pill-making process.Frederick didn’t intend to keep any secrets. "After taking the pill, one's physical capabilities will double within two hours."The elder was stunned when he heard this.Doubling one's physical cap
Prospera Corporation held its board meeting at ten o'clock the next morning.The group directors all felt a little clueless. The group had been operating as usual during this period. Why did they suddenly have to meet with the board of directors?Everyone was talking in the conference room."Do you know why we're having this meeting today?""I have no idea! Mr. Woolworth, you have the most reliable sources. Did you find out anything?""Not at all!"Amidst the noise, Frederick and Jennifer walked into the conference room side-by-side.A man in his late twenties sat next to Jennifer. When he saw this, he frowned.The directors in the conference room shuddered when they saw Frederick. They recalled the bloody massacre that happened not long ago. Trembling, they all stood up."Mr. Lester, you're here!""Greetings, Mr. Lester!"They all smiled politely at him."Sit, sit. Please do away with the formalities."Frederick chuckled as if he was the boss here.The only man who was s
"On this basis!" Frederick declared.With that, he retrieved a box and placed it on the table. The words 'Revitalizing Pill' were written on the box. Shane was stunned for a moment—then he burst into laughter."Ms. York, I had no idea Prospera Corporation was so lacking in talent that we'd make a swindler the general manager! You cheat your way here. You're a fucking talent!" Shane guffawed. He laughed so hard that his stomach hurt."Was that funny?" Frederick retorted, and he retrieved another document. This was the listing permit the elder at the pharmacy delivered to him in the morning.[Revitalizing Pill is a health supplement that boosts your body's performance by 100 percent within two hours of taking it.]It was written clearly in black and white.Shane sneered."Swindlers are becoming more and more professional these days. However, do you know what the charges are for forging a fake listing permit? I could make you go to prison for up to five years with that!" he exc
For a while, the group directors seemed tempted.If what was written on the listing permit was true, Revitalizing Pill would undoubtedly become Prospera Corporation's trump card.Even if it couldn’t rake in profits of up to five billion dollars in a short period of time, the indirect benefits it provided Prospera Corporation would already surpass monetary value.After all, every influential person in the world would definitely want their bodily functions to improve by a hundred percent within two hours. It was a dream come true."Mr. Lester, how can you prove its efficacy?" one of the group directors asked."You'll find out once you try it yourself," Frederick said calmly.Everyone looked at each other, but none of them dared to try it. After all, the pill came from an unknown source. Nobody knew if it could be harmful to the body.A middle-aged man with plump cheeks snorted, and asked loudly, "Who the hell would dare to try it? What if we die?" He was Prospera Corporation's f
