Golden Gourd, Green Gourd!
Chapter 3146 Golden Gourd, Green Gourd!
Internal Affairs Department.
Yu Zecheng stood at the door, a cigarette dangling from his hand, his expression calm.
Inside the room, Song Tao sat at the table, with one person taking notes with paper and pen beside him, and another person in charge of discipline.
“Lü Jun.”
Song Tao's voice was a little hoarse, and his gaze was sharp as he spoke, staring directly at the driver in front of him.
The driver, Lü Jun, had lost his previous energy and was in a daze after a day and a night.
However, after hearing Song Tao's question, he still forced himself to look up.
"Lu Jun, confess honestly, or you will face severe punishment."
Song Tao squinted and spoke again.
Upon hearing this, Lü Jun's expression brightened. "Comrade Leader, what exactly do you want me to confess?"
"As I said, I was driving at night, passing a fork in the road, and then I saw someone..."
"I didn't want this to happen either, I didn't know it would turn out like this."
"Boss, I really just bumped into it without paying attention."
Lu Jun looked aggrieved, his expression even pleading. "Leader, I also have a family to support. I also want to contribute my strength to the revolutionary construction."
"So we rushed back as soon as we finished delivering the supplies, just so we could complete the task assigned by our superiors as quickly as possible."
"I truly regret it. I regret driving too fast, so I couldn't brake in time and hit someone."
"If I had known this would happen, I would never walk alone at night again."
As Lü Jun spoke, he even showed a look of regret.
But Song Tao wasn't buying it at all. "Regret?"
"You must be regretting not stepping on the gas pedal too hard."
As he spoke, Song Tao took out a document and slammed it on the table. "This is our scientific judgment based on the traces. It clearly states that you were at maximum speed a hundred meters before the impact point, and the point of impact was not on the previous straight line. In other words, you were heading straight for the victim."
What do you have to say about this?
Why didn't you brake sooner?
boom!
"Tell the truth."
Song Tao slammed his hand on the table. Lü Jun trembled in fright, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, I'm innocent, I'm innocent!"
"I... I'm just a little tired from driving. You know the streetlights aren't very bright here."
"By the time I realized it, it was already too late. I was in a complete panic."
Lu Jun hurriedly explained, his expression flustered yet resolute.
Song Tao looked at the other person, his face expressionless, but his heart was filled with helplessness.
The other party was far more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
Song Tao remained silent until the other person finished speaking.
After a long while, Song Tao finally got up, but before leaving, he said, "You don't need to feel guilty anymore, because the victim has been saved."
After saying that, he went out.
Lu Jun's expression changed behind him.
After leaving the house, Song Tao saw Yu Zecheng smoking to the side and then walked over to him.
"Old Yu!"
Song Tao walked up and greeted him. Yu Zecheng nodded and then took out a cigarette and handed it to him.
Song Tao didn't stand on ceremony and took the cigarette directly, then said, "The other person has very hard teeth."
Yu Zecheng nodded. "That's precisely why it shows the other party is hiding something, and it makes them even more valuable to investigate."
"But these teeth are hard to open."
Song Tao was quite helpless, but Yu Zecheng smiled and said, "That's because you used the wrong method."
Song Tao was taken aback, then squinted at Yu Zecheng, "Old Yu, don't make a mistake."
Yu Zecheng didn't say anything, he just kept smoking. There was a pile of cigarette butts on the ground, and no one knew how many cigarettes he had smoked.
After a long silence, he finally said, "Sometimes, I keep thinking about it."
Why should someone who breaks the rules expect others to follow them?
Why should we use rules to constrain someone who breaks the rules?
"As a result, we are constrained by the rules, we are trapped within the rules, and we are unable to exercise justice."
Don't you think this is absurd?
Song Tao opened his mouth to speak, but in the end, he didn't know how to refute it.
There may be many reasons, and they may be noble and righteous, such as the principles, beliefs, rules, and systems that are upheld.
But right now, is all this effort even worthwhile?
Useless.
Based on the current progress, the final result will only be that the other party receives administrative punishment, and that punishment will be imposed by their employer.
And what about the injured?
He survived by sheer luck, but his body suffered tremendous damage.
Moreover, this was an intentional and premeditated act by the other party.
They escaped punishment precisely because there was no direct evidence.
Is this fair?
unfair.
But what can we do?
Song Tao took a deep drag on his cigarette and then threw the butt on the ground.
"One more, please."
Yu Zecheng turned his head to look over, and then heard Song Tao say, "Give me a cigarette, I have a light."
Yu Zecheng smiled and took out a cigarette; it was the last one.
In Mr. Chen's office.
When Yang Xiaotao arrived, he saw Li Rong sitting to the side, and the two were discussing something.
Upon seeing Yang Xiaotao, he immediately waved and stepped forward.
Yang Xiaotao nodded politely and sat down to the side, while Secretary Guo poured him a cup of tea.
"There are a lot to do tomorrow. The one from the alliance is Pavel, who is an old acquaintance."
Chen Lai spoke first, "I'll go talk to him this time."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, and Li Rong, who was standing next to him, continued, "The person from the United States is a man named Kate, but he is accompanied by our old acquaintance, Dawson."
"I estimate that Kate is probably an official from the United States, and her purpose in coming here is likely to import the special drug."
"You know the details." Yang Xiaotao nodded. "So, you're bringing the people from the United States this time?"
Li Rong smiled, then nodded and said, "I'll do it this time."
Yang Xiaotao shrugged. "So, in the end, I'll be the one from Hong Kong?"
Old Chen nodded, "That's right, Hong Kong is where you are."
"Of course, there may be more people later, but we need to pave the way in the early stages so that we can follow the path later."
Yang Xiaotao hummed in agreement, then looked at the two of them, "Then, let's agree on what to say!"
The two looked at each other and smiled; this was the most important thing.
"Let me first explain the three tiers that our nine departments have provided!"
Yang Xiaotao was about to speak when Old Chen interrupted him, saying, "Your three levels are a bit too general."
"Let me discuss it with Comrade Li Rong, and we'll just discuss two at a time!"
"two?"
Yang Xiaotao asked suspiciously, "Which one should be removed?"
"Don't let it be the highest one, I'm still counting on this to make money!"
Yang Xiaotao spoke bluntly and made no attempt to hide anything.
Old Chen shook his head, "I know what you're thinking, I'll reserve the highest level for you."
Yang Xiaotao feigned a sigh of relief, then nodded and said, "Then it doesn't matter."
Li Rong smiled and replied, "We'll save the highest grade for you, but let's forget about the domestic grade. If people find out that we're using the lowest grade for the domestic market, even if we know in our hearts that the medicine is the same, we'll inevitably be labeled as worshipping foreign things."
Yang Xiaotao shrugged. "Then let's cancel it. We can just put this type of medicine in the hospital as a prescription drug!"
Old Chen was pleased to see that Yang Xiaotao was so easy to talk to.
"Then there are two tiers. The best is $100,000 each, and then there's $10,000 each."
Yang Xiaotao continued, and Old Chen nodded in agreement. They then discussed the specific sales details.
"The alliance needs to be maintained. For orders in the 100,000 range, we can offer a 10% discount, that's our bottom line!"
Mr. Chen was the first to express his thoughts.
"But the price of items in the 10,000 range can't be lowered. I think the 10,000 range is probably the most popular, since there are more people buying them!"
Li Rong nodded in agreement, then smiled and said, "I think the United States can also follow this approach."
The two looked at Yang Xiaotao, but shook their heads and said, "I think we should stick to not offering discounts on the 100,000 range, but consider lowering the price on the 10,000 range."
The two were curious when Yang Xiaotao said, "Good things are never discounted!"
"Of course, you can give them to relatives or people you have a good relationship with, but you can't sell them!"
"Giving it as a gift is a favor!"
"Lowering the price will only diminish the importance of this effective drug!"
After hearing Yang Xiaotao's explanation, the two thought about it and realized it was indeed true.
"I think Xiao Yang is right. We might not be the only ones in the world to have this, but right now, we're definitely the only ones who have made a name for ourselves..."
Li Rong agreed, but little did he know that Yang Xiaotao was planning to have Xiao Wei do the work. It didn't need to be much; all they needed to do was tamper with the ginseng worth 100,000!
Old Chen nodded silently.
"In that case, let's make some moves on the 100,000 range!"
The three quickly reached an understanding, and then Yang Xiaotao said again, "By the way, it's too troublesome to address each other like that."
"I had a pharmaceutical factory order a batch of small gourds."
"The golden gourd is used to hold 100,000 units, and the green gourd is used to hold 10,000 units."
"From now on, just refer to them as the Golden Gourd and the Green Gourd!"
Both of them agreed and asked Yang Xiaotao to bring a few over the next day.
Firstly, it makes it easy to introduce the product; secondly, it can be given as a gift to guests.
Yang Xiaotao naturally did not object.
After the three discussed the details, the meeting ended.
Yang Xiaotao traveled to the pharmaceutical factory again and, with Bai Jingshu's special arrangement, toured the factory.
The product was still under development the day before yesterday, but news of what happened at the Ninth People's Hospital yesterday immediately strengthened the pharmaceutical factory's determination to produce it.
It was this determination that led the pharmaceutical factory to work overtime overnight.
"Mr. Yang, this is the large medicine pot we're responsible for boiling!"
"As you instructed, the ginseng used was of the highest quality, all over ten years old..."
Bai Jingshu explained to him from the side. The night was hazy, but the large pot for boiling medicine was steaming, with sparks below. You could feel the intense heat as soon as you got close.
It was already unbearably hot that day, and if they were to start a fire to boil medicine, you can imagine how hot it would get.
"Mr. Yang, this is the finished product!"
Bai Jingshu led Yang Xiaotao to a nearby warehouse, where small gourds, each about the size of a finger, were neatly arranged on the shelves.
The style was exactly the same as the one worn by Yang Xiaotao's child.
It's obvious that the idea was borrowed.
Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything about this.
"We specially hired a processing plant to make these little gourds. Oh, and our timber factory also helped out!"
As Bai Jingshu spoke, Yang Xiaotao went in and looked around.
Xiao Wei flew out from her sleeve and disappeared into a small gourd. A moment later, she flew back, and Xiao Wei's voice appeared in his mind, "Master, there's no problem!"
"The energy inside is one-tenth of what it was before!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
Yang Xiaotao praised her, and Xiao Wei immediately flew off to play by herself.
"Director Bai, please take thirty of each and put them in the best gift boxes!"
"understand!"
Bai Jingshu quickly agreed.
"The quality of medicines must be strictly controlled; there can be no mistakes whatsoever..."
After giving repeated instructions, Yang Xiaotao left the pharmaceutical factory with a box of small gourds.
Hey everyone, I'm making dumplings tonight, so I'm posting a chapter first.
Another chapter is currently being written.
It will probably be released a little later.
I'm so sorry!
