WPG is basically confirmed! Musk figured everything out! President An kept whitewashing himself!
Facing An Wuyang's question, Tom hesitated slightly before answering, "According to our investigation, the situation with [FE02] over here in White Eagle is rather complicated."
"Tell me the specifics." An Wuyang gestured for Tom to explain in detail.
Tom began explaining, "There aren't many genuine [FE02] products. If you don't have connections in the underground world and don't know the right channels, it's genuinely difficult to get the real thing."
"Of the [FE02] sold openly, the vast majority have been processed a second time. For example, genuine [FE02] is diluted, mixed with milk powder or starch, then pressed into tablets and sold." Tom added.
"Based on what we've learned, some gangs with a conscience only dilute it at a one-to-five ratio. Some unscrupulous gangs even push the dilution ratio to one-to-ten." Tom explained the dilution ratios used in counterfeiting.
An Wuyang was somewhat speechless. Were these so-called underground people really this devoid of honor?
But considering White Eagle's overall environment, having no honor seemed to be the norm!
"After dilution, is the price adjusted accordingly?" An Wuyang asked curiously.
Surely they couldn't dilute it without adjusting the price, could they?
Tom answered An Wuyang's question about pricing. "The price is adjusted. It's generally adjusted according to the dilution ratio, but overall, there's still a markup."
"For example, we previously found a gang that diluted it at a one-to-five ratio. They were upfront about the dilution. At that ratio, each diluted pill still cost 100 dollars," Tom explained.
An Wuyang remembered Tom saying earlier that genuine [FE02] cost 300 dollars per pill. After a one-to-five dilution, one pill became five, bringing the total selling price to 500 dollars. So that was another two-thirds markup?
"As for gangs diluting it one-to-ten, their prices vary. Some sell it for 50 dollars per pill,
