C88 – One Pill for Ten Thousand
At that mont, Zhou Tong, who was well aware of the super cold dicine’s value, had faced rejection from Jiang Hao multiple tis but wasn’t ready to throw in the towel just yet.
“Oh, if that’s the case, could I possibly ask Jiang Hao for a favor?”
He didn’t wait for Jiang Hao’s consent before continuing.
“Jiang Hao, when you head ho tonight, could you ask your mom which pharmacy she got this dicine from? Let know tomorrow, so I can go buy a few pills.”
Jiang Hao’s opinion of Zhou Tong was deteriorating rapidly.
“Fine, I’ll ask her tonight when I get ho, but it’s been quite a while. She might not even rember!”
Jiang Hao feigned agreent.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong quickly responded.
“Then I really appreciate it, Jiang Hao!”
“But rember, my offer still stands—I’m willing to pay a thousand yuan for each pill!”
Jiang Hao, however, didn’t seem too keen on the offer.
After Zhou Tong left, Jiang Hao slumped back onto the table and fell asleep.
But in reality, he was having second thoughts.
This encounter made him realize he might have seriously underestimated the synthetic drug’s worth.
“So, it looks like after my college entrance exams, I could aim for a major in pharmaceutical studies!
With the system at my disposal, mastering dical science shouldn’t be too hard!
Once I’ve got a solid grasp on pharmacology, I can introduce the super cold dicine, super painkillers, and even super anti-cancer drugs.
Everything will fall into place then!”
Thinking this, Jiang Hao felt as though he had stumbled upon a road paved with opportunity.
……
Before he knew it, another uneventful day had slipped by, and the college entrance exam lood ever closer.
The following day, Jiang Hao, true to form, arrived at school and promptly dozed off at his desk.
That’s when he felt a gentle nudge.
“Classmate Jiang Hao? Classmate Jiang Hao?”
Opening his eyes, Jiang Hao was surprised to find Zhou Tong standing there.
Seeing Jiang Hao awake, Zhou Tong’s face was etched with regret.
“I’m sorry to disturb you, Jiang Hao!”
“Did you get a chance to ask your mom about the pharmacy yesterday?”
Jiang Hao had an inkling that Zhou Tong had co specifically for this.
Yet, he hadn’t anticipated Zhou Tong’s persistent fascination with his super cold dicine—it seed to be always on his mind!
Jiang Hao was utterly convinced that Zhou Tong’s eagerness for his super cold dicine was far from simple.
Yet, knowing the truth, Jiang Hao let him down.
“Sorry, Zhou Tong. I asked my mom last night, and she’s forgotten where she bought it too,” he said.
Jiang Hao’s words made Zhou Tong, who had been brimming with anticipation, freeze on the spot.
“What am I going to do?”
“The college entrance exams are coming up. If I don’t get over this cold, it’s going to ruin my performance!”
Zhou Tong feigned desperation, hoping to elicit Jiang Hao’s compassion.
“Jiang Hao, are you sure you’re out of cold dicine? If you have any left, please, for the sake of our friendship as classmates, help out!
We can talk about the price. I’m willing to pay ten thousand yuan per pill if that’s what it takes!”
Zhou Tong’s offer was so generous it nearly took Jiang Hao’s breath away, and he almost agreed on the spot.
The classmates around Jiang Hao were equally stunned when they heard Zhou Tong’s proposal.
“Ten thousand per pill?”
“Is this so kind of miracle drug?”
“Seriously, has Zhou Tong lost his mind?”
……
They couldn’t fathom why Zhou Tong was so fixated on a re cold pill from Jiang Hao.
But Jiang Hao alone knew the real reason behind Zhou Tong’s determination.
