The Three Major Pharmaceutical Groups Gather

For three days, the Three Major Pharmaceutical Groups had found nothing!

After exhausting all methods of investigation, the people sent out by Zhenyao Workshop and Miaofang Pavilion didn't even know if their client was male or female. Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao were naturally furious.

However, neither of them had any information about Jiang Fan to begin with, so finding him was like searching for a needle in a haystack. Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao were aware of this situation and didn't push their subordinates too hard.

As a last resort, they changed their strategy and assigned all their personnel to monitor the other two groups.

They had already developed their fourth-generation agent and held the advantage. As long as they ensured the other two groups made no progress, they would be in an invincible position. This was a sound approach! However, compared to Zhenyao Workshop and Miaofang Pavilion, Anshitang was in a much more passive position.

Although they had acquired the agent and had a general idea of Jiang Fan's information, after days of screening, there was still no progress. Yu Jun couldn't help but feel anxious!

"Still haven't found him?"

"Jiang City only has these five high schools, with a maximum of tens of thousands of people!"

"You can't even find someone with such clear information?"

Currently, Anshi Hall was the only one that hadn't developed a fourth-generation agent. If this stalemate continued, the situation would become increasingly unfavorable for them.

Therefore, Yu Jun abandoned his usual refined demeanor, his voice unconsciously rising.

His subordinates remained silent, intimidated.

"Boss, we've screened everyone we could!"

"But if he deliberately concealed his identity, it's hard for us to verify the truth!"

Yu Jun shook his head, his expression grim.

"That is indeed a problem!"

"But have you tried to think of a solution?"

"Offer rewards, ask indirectly – do I need to teach you these methods personally?"

His subordinates could only tremble and stay silent.

Seeing this, Yu Jun shook his head in disappointment.

"What did Lu Bo at the underground auction say?"

"Has he caved yet?"

His subordinates hesitated for a moment.

"He hasn't yet!"

"From the sound of it, he seems to want to see the bids from the other two groups first!"

Yu Jun slammed his hand on the table with a 'bang', splashing tea everywhere.

"Scoundrel!"

"How much has he taken from us already, yet he still refuses to reveal a single piece of information? He's a complete rogue!"

His subordinates could only offer words of comfort.

"Boss, if he's not telling us, he definitely won't tell the other two groups either!"

"According to the reports from our scouts, the other two groups are also making inquiries everywhere. Clearly, they haven't gotten accurate information from Lu Bo either!"

Yu Jun was slightly relieved at this.

"That's true!"

But then he sighed again.

"But we're different from the other two. They can afford to wait, but we can't!"

He rubbed his forehead, a headache forming.

The test results for the agent they acquired were out. It was confirmed to be about 50% more effective than the fourth-generation products from the Three Major Pharmaceutical Groups.

According to the feedback on the prescription from Old Xu, the cost of the medicinal ingredients was only about half that of the fourth-generation product.

With such a massive profit margin, they were unable to analyze the production process and couldn't find the creator of the agent. It was truly infuriating!

Most crucially, the old friends he had contacted to help him find the fourth-generation prescription had all reported back that it would be difficult to ascertain the corresponding formula in a short period.

If this continued, Anshi Hall would be completely left behind by the other two groups!

Would Anshi Hall truly be doomed?

After his subordinates left, Yu Jun sat quietly, gazing at the ground with deep eyes, his thoughts long gone.

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps approached.

"Boss, boss!"

The subordinate who had just left rushed back, panting.

Seeing this, Yu Jun quickly stepped forward.

"What is it?"

"Is there any news?"

His expression was excited, and his body subconsciously leaned forward.

The person below said, panting for breath.

"Just... just now, people from the underground auction house sent a message saying the client is willing to see us!"

"What?"

Yu Jun froze on the spot.

At the same time, Zhenyao Workshop and Miaofang Pavilion received the news. Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao quickly arranged matters in their shops and rushed to the underground auction house.

An hour later, the underground auction house.

Yu Jun met Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao, who had rushed over.

Yu Jun's heart sank.

"What are you two doing here?"

Sikong Yao smiled.

"Old Yu, whatever you're here for, that's why we're here!"

Yu Jun's eyes narrowed, and he immediately understood what was going on.

He felt that the person behind this was so insidious, always summoning the three of them together, offering bait but not feeding them, and watching them scheme against each other.

They were probably waiting for them to fight to the death before coming out to reap the benefits. It was truly profound!

Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao had similar thoughts to Yu Jun.

The few of them, with heavy hearts, walked along the corridor.

Xia Chengyang suggested.

"The person behind this must be a master strategist. This time, he went to such great lengths to attract us through the auction house, then kept us waiting without showing himself, and now he's called all three of us here. His plans are likely vast!"

"So I propose that no matter what bait the other party offers later, none of us should place a bid first!"

Sikong Yao thought for a moment and nodded.

However, Yu Jun clearly did not agree with Xia Chengyang's words, or rather, he didn't trust these two at all.

"Why shouldn't we bid?"

"If we don't bid, are you two going to buy the prescription?"

"I don't care what you do, and you can't control what I do either!"

After saying that, he quickened his pace, quickly pulling away from the two and walking forward, giving them no chance to speak again.

Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao looked at each other from behind.

Sikong Yao frowned.

"This old guy has gone mad!"

Xia Chengyang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"It seems that Anshi Hall really hasn't developed its fourth-generation product, which has made Old Yu extremely anxious!"

"Let's hurry over too!"

After speaking, the two quickened their pace and walked towards Lu Bo's room.

When they arrived at the room.

Yu Jun had already taken a seat and was chatting with Lu Bo.

Lu Bo smiled and stood up when he saw Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao enter.

"You two bosses, please have a seat!"

The two sat down under Lu Bo's guidance. Sikong Yao looked around.

"Where is the client?"

Lu Bo smiled.

"Don't be so impatient!"

"Since we are here to do business, the relevant parties will definitely be here!"

"How could I not understand this logic?"

Saying that, he clapped his hands.

"Brother Jiang, please come out!"

Following his voice, Jiang Fan walked out from a side compartment, then nodded to everyone and naturally sat down next to Lu Bo.

Yu Jun's face stiffened upon seeing this.

Xia Chengyang and Sikong Yao were dumbfounded. What...

What is this?

Is this a high school student?

Are they kidding us?
