I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 181: Persuasiveness

Translator: Lordbluefire

Chu Cichen lifted his head and his deep eyes stared at Lu Cheng. “Do you know manners or not?”

Only then did Lu Cheng realize that he had forgotten to knock on the door when he entered. He directly walked out. “Sorry, I was too agitated. Should I knock on the door before I enter again?”

Chu Cichen didn’t answer, but Chu Yuan held onto Lu Cheng. “There’s no time to care about things like manners. Did you say that an outbreak had occurred?”

Lu Cheng then passed his phone to Chu Yuan. “Some forensic investigators that came in contact with Yan Zihao’s corpse have been infected. In addition, this matter is already trending. The relevant government departments will also urge everyone to purchase the heat dispersal pills for prevention and cure.”

Chu Yuan’s heart was akin to dead ashes before this. But when he saw the news, his eyes instantly brightened. “There really is a transmissible disease…this is actually true!”

He took Lu Cheng’s phone and headed out. “I’m going to show this trending news and push the phone into the face of those shareholders to let them take a good look!”

After speaking, he rushed out in excitement.

Lu Cheng felt something off, but before he could understand what was wrong, Chu Cichen looked at him and asked, “Is the trip to the pharmaceutical factory smooth?”

Lu Cheng’s attention was immediately on Chu Cichen. He directly said, “It was not smooth at all. No one believed the news about the transmissible disease. You should know something about that bunch of researchers. Their egos are so large and they are in their own world. They even started a commotion and said that they wouldn’t produce any more heat dispersal pills. Bro Chen, guess what happened at the end?”

Chu Cichen ignored him.

As expected, Lu Cheng impatiently continued, “In the end, when Charles appeared, Lord Jing only said a single sentence and told him that the transmissible disease was true and he believed it. I asked earlier, and Charles is currently overseeing the production of the heat dispersal pills personally!”

After acknowledging Shen Ruojing’s capabilities, Lu Cheng became much smarter. He tidied his floral shirt and continued, “I suspect that Charles might be acquainted with Lord Jing, or things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.”

Chu Cichen stared at his computer and calmly said, “Hmm, it means that things are not hopeless yet.”

Lu Cheng rubbed his nose. “Lord Jing has concealed herself too deeply. If this matter is revealed to Sea City, who would believe that the notorious Shen Ruojing is none other than the divine doctor?”

After saying all these, Lu Cheng spoke again, “Also, Sis Fang…”

He fell silent but eventually still decided to speak the truth. “Bro Chen, I feel that she doesn’t have the ability to manage the industrial park. Do you want to send someone else over?’

Chu Cichen cast a deep glance at him as he pondered. “Wait for a little while more. You should try to forge a closer relationship with Charles when you go to the industrial park next time.”

Lu Cheng immediately understood Chu Cichen’s thoughts.

Fang Panxia was obediently staying in the industrial park because she had recommended Charles and the other researchers. Hence, it wasn’t that Chu Cichen didn’t want to deal with Fang Panxia. Rather, he was afraid Charles would object.

Naturally, with Chu Cichen’s ability, he could force Charles. But if the situation wasn’t at the stage where he needed to do this, Chu Cichen would rather not be so forceful. Hence, he chose to use soft tactics instead as it was the best choice.

When his own relationship with Charles was good enough and Charles felt a sense of belonging to the industrial park, Chu Cichen would be able to act against Fang Panxia.

Lu Cheng didn’t feel that Chu Cichen’s actions were too sinister. After all, Fang Panxia’s recent actions had truly gone too overboard.

But they would not do anything to her temporarily.

–

The trending news about someone getting infected would surely shock a bunch of people.

Liu Dandan returned to the unit after she left Xiao Li’s ward.

Everyone looked at her. “Did Xiao Li really contract the transmissible disease? It seems that this matter is real.”

“Captain Cui just gave an order that all of us have to eat a heat dispersal pill. He has given out the pills. Have you guys consumed it yet?”

“I did…”

“Aiya, you guys said it was fake yesterday so I tossed it away. What should I do now?”

“…Go and purchase them! I am sure the Chu Corporation will cooperate with the various major pharmaceutical companies to distribute them, right?”

Now, those who had thought too highly of themselves and had thrown the heat dispersal pills away ignored the fact that it was still working hours. They directly rushed to the nearby pharmacies to purchase the heat dispersal pills.

And because the news was trending, it finally captured the attention of the citizens of Sea City. As a result, a portion of people immediately went to the pharmacies to purchase the heat dispersal pills.

“What heat dispersal pills? We don’t have such medicine!” In the pharmacy, an attendant frowned. When the customer heard that this pharmacy didn’t sell the heat dispersal pills, he immediately turned and left.

However, some of them didn’t believe the attendant. “I know that this pill must be very low in stocks now. How much did you guys purchase it for? I’ll pay double to buy it! I’ll buy three…no ten pills!”

The shop attendant was confused. “We really don’t have it.”

More and more people came to buy the pill, and everyone started discussing it. “Maybe this pharmacy is too small, so they have no stock. We should go to Dongye Pharmacy. They are a big chain and would surely have some for sale!”

Hence, the group of them went to Dongye Pharmacy.

Seeing all of this, the shop attendant thought about it and felt that this matter was very serious and sensitive. Hence, the staff quickly informed the manager of the pharmacy about this.

The manager was also stunned. He naturally knew about the heat dispersal pill. Earlier, the Chu Corporation had contacted them specially to cooperate with regard to this pill. However, they rejected the Chu Corporation.

In the past, no one bought this pill, so they didn’t pay attention to it. But why were there so many people wanting to buy the heat dispersal pills now?

He quickly reported this to their upper management.

The Dongye Pharmacy also didn’t have heat dispersal pills, and this caused everyone to be astonished.

Liu Dandan was anxious and upset now.

The unit had given them free pills, but she didn’t eat them and had chosen to throw them away. Now, she combed through all pharmacies of Sea City, yet she wasn’t even able to purchase one!

She really felt like crying but had no tears left.

She opened her work group chat and discovered someone mentioning an idea. “The heat dispersal pills are manufactured by the Chu Corporation. Wouldn’t we be able to buy some if we go to the Chu Corporation’s hospital?”

These words immediately made her feel hopeful!

Liu Dandan directly rushed to the Chu Hospital.

Sadly, since they could think of this, many people could as well. There were already long queues forming outside the Chu Hospital.

These situations were all discovered by Chu Yuan.

He was currently pacing back and forth in the office and felt extremely nervous.

His subordinate couldn’t stand it and asked, “Director Chu, people are already infected and there are also long queues of people that want to buy our heat dispersal pills. But why didn’t those pharmacies call to seek our cooperation yet?”

Chu Yuan also felt depressed.

He had thought that his phone would be ringing with numerous calls for cooperation due to the trending news. But who would have expected that it was silent all the time?

He coughed and got the subordinate to make a call to him. “Maybe my phone is spoiled?”

However, his subordinate’s call connected.

Chu Yuan. “…”

He pondered for a long time and eventually called the boss of Dongye Pharmacy again. During these years, his relationship with the other party had always been good.

The call soon connected.

Chu Yuan directly spoke, “Bro, my phone is about to explode from the number of calls I’m receiving. However, thinking of our relationship, I’ll leave 50,000 heat dispersal pills for you. Am I a good friend or not?”

The other party laughed. “Younger bro, no rush no rush. Let’s wait a while more…”

Chu Yuan started. “Wait for what? Once the outbreak begins, the medicine will be out of stock. Let me tell you that I’m only doing this due to our friendship…”

The other party was still calm and unhurried. “Up till now, there has only been a single case of infection, so it isn’t persuasive enough. We wish to wait and see…”
