Chapter 66
Overwhelming news about sky-high priced fake drugs appeared all over the Star Network, attracting everyone’s attention.
On the Interstellar Patent Office’s homepage, the annual authorized patents announcement was released, showing all the successful patents applied for in the last year. One of them was Nelson Research Institute’s Toxin Cleansing Pill formula and its effects. However, almost a week has passed since the announcement was released. Yet, no one has discovered that it had the same effects as the Vein Clearing Liquid.
Just when everyone was bombarding the network about “overpriced fake medicines” and trying to force the shopkeepers to come out and give the people an explanation, the pharmaceutical factory invested and built by Jin WoWo started production in a low-key manner.
With money, the pharmaceutical factory took almost no time to set-up, being completed in a little over half a month.
Upon its completion, the different types of machines and equipment ordered in advance had also arrived and were quickly installed.
The Toxin Clearing Pill’s formula was very easy to make, only the last process was played the most important role. Of course, the last step was processed in Jin WoWo’s hands. Jin WoWo only needed to add his snail liquid to the semi-finished sesame pill/ball.
Thus, the process was simple and quick.
During this period of time, even though Jin Wowo had been busy and dizzy from moving around all day, he did not neglect his cultivation.
Raymond sent him two boxes of No. 2 energy liquid with a purity of 85 percent. This was already the highest purity energy liquids could reach in the Beastman Empire.
With a steady access to wooden energy, Jin WoWo’s cultivation shot up like a rocket.
As his cultivation level increased, the amount of liquid in his shell secreted also increased accordingly.
The overpriced fake medicine issue had been fermenting on the Star Network for more than a week without any signs of the shopkeeper showing up.
Since people could not find the shopkeeper himself even after resorting to various methods, they quickly turned their attention towards the first person to promote the medicine – the online celebrity Kun Kun.
Before the Vein Clearing Liquid was auctioned at a high price by the auction house, online celebrity Kun Kun made a live broadcast of it.
The public reasonably suspected that the online celebrity Kun Kun was in cahoots with the owner of the medicine. So, self-righteous people rushed forward and poured poison on Kun Kun’s personal platform.
Kun Kun’s followers rose from tens of millions to more than one billion in just a few days.
If it were in the past, Kun Kun would definitely be crying in happiness.
But now……
Those who paid attention to him were not those who love him, but people who wanted to scold him at all times.
The difference was especially evident from the posts before and after Kun Kun’s live broadcast of the Vein Clearing Liquid. The comment area under the recording with the amazing results was filled with rotten eggs smashed by netizens.
—It’s a thing that came from a liar!
—Say it, how much did the shopkeeper give you?
—Kun Kun, you just wanted to make money, didn’t you? You disappointed us so much!
Kun Kun frowned and looked at the overwhelming vicious remarks in the comment section. He couldn’t have known what “Vein Clearing Liquid” was. When he got it, he even tested it and the test result was indeed exactly the same as a nutrient solution.
More importantly, although it contained only nutrients, it really had a different effect once a person drank it.
If he hadn’t experienced it personally, he might have thought the medicine too was just a scam based on the evidence displayed on the internet.
Online celebrity Kun Kun looked at the seventeen bottles of medicine he had left, locked in the cabinet. These were bought after he learned of the magical medicine from his first visit. After that, the medicines were auctioned at sky-high prices on the auction house.
Except for the first time he gave his grandparents a bottle to drink each, his parents and family members said that they would not drink anything and keep it for its high price.
Now, even though he and his family haven’t touched another bottle, such an incident had already occurred.
Kun Kun’s mother frowned and sighed, “Had I known it would be like this, we would have sold it early. Even if we didn’t sell it on the auction house at that high price, we would have gotten at least a million in profit!”
Kun Kun’s younger brother said angrily, “Are these people brainless? He hasn’t even personally verified anything yet everyone already believes that agreed to advertise himself as an immoral man! The shopkeeper must be mad (angry), maybe they’re all mad(crazy).”
As the younger brother said this, he glanced at Kun Kun’s locker that contained the magical medicine.
The younger brother wanted to experience the effects of the magic medicine. Although Kun Kun bought it for an inexpensive price, he still couldn’t experience it since a bottle was easily worth a few million. To just have an experience really wasn’t something his parents would agree to.
Kun Kun frowned, glanced at his younger brother, and suddenly said, “Do you want to try drinking the vein clearing liquid?”
“Huh? Well, I…” The younger brother glanced at his mother, “No, I don’t want to drink.”
Kun Kun got up, opened the cabinet, took out a bottle of medicine, and placed it in front of his younger brother. “I’ll give you this bottle.”
The younger brother’s eyes lit up, and he took a quick glance at his mother.
The mother frowned upon hearing Kun Kun’s words, “Don’t waste it. A few million will be gone after one bite. Having to go through the foreboding energy dialysis, which beastmen do you think won’t come here to get a drink? After some time has passed, the medicine’s price will surely rise to it’s astonishing price again. When that happens, we’ll sell it.”
Kun Kun nodded, “I know.”
He turned to his brother again and said, “Let’s do a live broadcast together.”
“What are you going to do?” The mother asked.
Kun Kun said solemnly, “I will speak up and show the netizens the truth about the medicine!”
“Are you crazy?!” The mother couldn’t help raising her voice. “There are already so many people who suspect that you are partnering with the shopkeeper to deceive people. Now, you want to speak up for this medicine. In the eyes of those people, don’t you think you’re already perceived as a liar?”
Mother bitterly persuaded, “Kun Kun, we are already eating the meal, and you are already being attacked by almost the whole network. As long as we endure this period of time and once the wind has passed, we can still return to our old professions. Don’t Take the risk at the cusp of this storm!”
“Mother, I understand what you’re saying, what you said, but we are benefiting from the medicine. Seeing it being slandered like this, I know I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I choose to stay silent.”
“I support Big Brother’s approach!”
Seeing the firm expressions of her sons, Kun Kun’s mother’s complexion changed a few times before she finally stood up and said, “I don’t care about what you two are going to do anymore. Do whatever you want.”
After his mother left, Kun Kun found his sister, a little female who was just over ten years old.
Kun Kun gave his siblings some instructions before opening his live broadcast room.
The people, finding a breakthrough in the information dead zone, instantly rushed into the live broadcast room, yelling and throwing countless rotten eggs. (T/N rotten eggs = bad insulting comments)
Kun Kun deliberately ignored the bombardment of rotten eggs, brought out his professionalism, smiled, and said to the camera, “Today I am going to do an experiment, a comparative test of the vein clearing liquid and a nutrient solution. Take a good look. Is this the legendary miracle medicine or is it really just an ordinary bottle of nutrient solution?”
“I found two people who volunteered to participate in the experiment.”
Kun Kun’s younger brother and sister both wore masks. Kun Kun pointed to his younger brother and said, “This volunteer, will be taking the vein clearing liquid for this experiment. Let’s test the toxin content in his body first.”
Kun Kun’s younger brother sat up and fixed the instrument’s patches on his body. The test results quickly came out. On the screen of the instrument, the toxin content displayed was 4.42%.
Afterward, the other volunteer, Kun Kun’s sister, also took a toxin content test. The test result showed that her toxin content was 3.27%.
Kun Kun took out two small bottles, “This is a nutrient that is extremely popular on the market. Everyone knows it as vein clearing liquid.”
Kun Kun asked his brother to drink the bottle of medicine and had him tested again.
The test result: toxin content 0%.
—It’s a lie, it’s the same trick you used to record your first live broadcast.
—The testing equipment must have been tinkered with.
Kun Kun asked his sister to drink the bottle of ordinary “nutrients” and also had her tested again. The te
The test result: toxin content 3.27%.
—Don’t try to wash yourself off with such low-level tricks.
—Do you think we are all fools?
—This experiment proves once again that the testing equipment you’re using is faulty!
Kun Kun came to the side and pointed to a sign on the instrument and said, “This is the instrument I rented from a certain energy detection station. There is its trademark. It would be impossible to fake this.”
Kun Kun rubbed his forehead and clicked on his terminal, “This is the first test report I did when I got the medicine. The test result is indeed exactly the same as the nutrient composition. But after drinking it, the effect is really different. To be honest, I also don’t know the reason behind this as I really don’t understand medicine at all.”
The audience still didn’t believe the content of the live broadcast that they had just watched and spared no effort to throw rotten eggs in Kun Kun’s room.
“I want to say, those people who say that the vein clearing liquid is a fake medicine, have you really tried the medicine?”
Of course, it would be impossible for them to have taken it. Among the netizens who denounce the medicine, how many of them could really drink a bottle of medicine priced at millions of star coins?”
Hearing this, the netizens became even angrier. Just because they weren’t financially capable of drinking it, they were already labelled as unqualified to denounce the medicine?
Kun Kun’s live broadcast was instantly spread across the network. Some people even went directly to Kun Kun’s home, squatting near his home, intending to pave the way for justice.
Kun Kun’s family was terrified of stepping out of the house.
Meanwhile, Jin WoWo, who basically didn’t surf the network, saw a push notification about “Internet celebrity Kun Kun and the owner of the fake medicine’s shopkeeper, live broadcast recording.”
Jin WoWo watched the video, opened Kun Kun’s social media page, and saw Kun Kun’s first live broadcast of the vein clearing liquid.
Turns out, Kun Kun was the first person to buy medicine from his shop.
After this Kun Kun discovered the effect of the vein clearing liquid and immediately ordered all of the stock left in his store. He probably wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune.
Although Jin WoWo suspected Kun Kun as an opportunist, Jin Wowo also believed that it is also rare for an online celebrity like Kun Kun to speak for the product that was the subject of the entire network’s condemnation.
Jin WoWo thought for a while, then opened the contact software that could reach out to the auction platform.
On the contact software between the auction platform and the shopkeeper of Yiyuanfang, there would always be people squatting with their hearts anxious.
Because ever since the expensive fake medicine incident was released on the Star Network, the mysterious shopkeeper never provided medicine to the auction platform again.
After so many days, the owner finally showed up!
The squatting netizens were going crazy with excitement, a large group of people rushed to surround the light curtain, hoping that the shopkeeper could type the word “clarification”.
However, what they saw instead was a notice that the shop owner unilaterally cancelled the cooperation with the bidding platform.
He also announced that the vein clearing liquid will never be provided again in the future, nor will it be circulated on the market again. Let the vein clearing liquid disappear in the long history of the Beastman Empire.
The people behind the scenes who planned and manipulated the public opinion were completely dumbfounded when they got the news.
They just wanted to use this method to force the shopkeeper and his master out, not to let this “peerless formula” disappear.
This was simply a huge loss for the entire empire!
These people never expected that the person holding this “peerless formula” would be such a weird flower, not eating the hard or soft, and not playing cards according to common sense at all!
Doesn’t he want fame??
Doesn’t he want money??
Doesn’t he want to be loved by the whole empire??
Doesn’t he want to be remembered in history books??!
These people’s chests were about to make their feet bounce and yet Jin WoWo was still completely unaware of it.
Because Raymond had hidden Jin WoWo’s private information so well, no one could send him a message and no one could reach out to him privately.
Of course, Jin WoWo made the decision not just because of a whim.
He was thinking that since the toxin cleansing pills produced by his own pharmaceutical factory will be on the market soo and because the pills have the exact same effects as the liquid, there was no more need for the liquid to circulate in the market.
From the appearance to the end of the vein clearing liquid in just over a month, a huge wave had rippled across the empire. Now, it was time to retreat.
Fake medicine at sky-high prices became out-of-print with just one sentence from Jin WoWo. – Let the vein clearing liquid disappear.
Jin WoWo watched the video of the internet celebrity Kun Kun speaking for the liquid again. Within a few days, the price of the vein clearing liquid will change a few more times. As long as Kun Kun was not greedy before the pill is launched, the other party could earn money at once.
