197: Chapter 197: Two Elder Sisters-in-Law (5th Update) 197: Chapter 197: Two Elder Sisters-in-Law (5th Update) After hearing Zhao Xinyao’s idea, Li Zhe slapped the table and said excitedly, “Great idea, this is really a great idea.
Let’s do it.”
Zhao Xinyao said, “However, if we sell our medicine cheaply, we might not recover the costs, we need to consider the loss.”
Li Zhe waved his hand dismissively and said, “Loss is fine, Gangzhe Group is rich, losing money for a day or two to squeeze Wang Yan out is worth it.”
The next day.
As expected, Peak Group established a hundred retail stores across the city and began promoting the Stabilizing Pill.
As for the Strengthening Pill, Peak Group had no worries about selling it.
Even at a thousand per pill, wealthy people flocked to buy it crazily.
Wang Yan still regulated the daily sales limit, making it impossible for many who wanted to buy it.
This hunger marketing strategy not only didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the wealthy, but made them even more feverish.
On the black market, the price of the Strengthening Pill soared to five thousand per pill, still in short supply.
With this Strengthening Pill, Peak Group already made a fortune.
But Wang Yan’s goal was to allow all the poor to afford real supplements, hence the Stabilizing Pill, although similar to the Strengthening Pill in ingredients and efficacy, was priced at one yuan per pill.
Moreover, after opening, Wang Yan established another hundred selling stores specifically for the Stabilizing Pill.
The Stabilizing Pill itself didn’t make money, laughably Li Zhe thought he could make Wang Yan lose here.
On this day, San led Fang and others, dispersing among the various sales stores, while Wang Yan honestly sat in the classroom, attentively taking classes.
Wang Yan seemed totally unbothered attending classes, but Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting, sitting in front of Wang Yan, seemed distracted, constantly turning back to look at Wang Yan.
Finally, when class was over, both of them turned simultaneously to look at Wang Yan.
Since returning yesterday, although Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting both cried till their eyes were red, they behaved as if everything was normal.
Wang Yan occasionally tried probing the two, wanting to understand what their conversation atop Broken Bridge was about.
Unexpectedly, whenever Wang Yan inquired what they were doing, they would exchange glances, smile, and change the subject.
However, there was noticeable change between them, they became more in tune with each other and more enthusiastic towards Wang Yan.
Gone were the scenes of them bickering at slightest disagreement, their differences diminishing gradually.
Like overnight, they turned into loving sisters who grew up together.
Wang Yan was greatly surprised, yet further admired their friendship magic skill, itching to uncover the method of this skill.
But Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting seemed uninterested in revealing the secret of this skill to Wang Yan.
Instead, Ouyang Feiting fully disclosed Li Zhe’s plot against Peak Group to Wang Yan, urging him repeatedly to return to Peak Group to take charge.
Ouyang Feiting’s news came from commercial spies of Ouyang Group who infiltrated Gangzhe Group the previous day.
Since learning of Li Zhe’s plan, Ouyang Feiting was greatly anxious.
The plan was indeed insidious and ruthless, not to mention the newly formed Peak Group, even the affluent Ouyang Group would struggle not to suffer substantial damage.
However, to Ouyang Feiting’s surprise, after hearing Li Zhe’s plan, Wang Yan merely furrowed his brow slightly, then swiftly penned five letters for Ma Jun to deliver to San, acting as if nothing was wrong.
Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting hastened frequently, urging Wang Yan to skip classes and manage things personally.
But each time, Wang Yan merely smiled lightly, shook his head, as if ignoring their advice completely.
With hearts full of anxiety, Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting eagerly waited for class to end, then rapidly turned to face Wang Yan.
“Brother Wang Yan, please go to the scene now, it’s still not too late,” Ouyang Feiting’s first words after turning back were still urging Wang Yan to leave.
“Feiting’s right, Brother Wang Yan, if you don’t go, I’m worried San’s command might fail, Peak Group could go bankrupt in a day,” Beiming Xue immediately agreed.
Hearing this, Wang Yan lifted his head with interest, looked at the two beauties sitting in front, and smiled, “Can you tell me how you two got so close?”
Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting exchanged a glance, then each gave a knowing smile, before turning back to Wang Yan and saying, “We’ve always been this close.”
Wang Yan shook his head with a smile, “I could smell the scent of hostility between you two before, but now it vanished, replaced with genuine concern and understanding.
You can’t fool me.”
Upon hearing Wang Yan, Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting froze, but then Ouyang Feiting pretended to pout, “Brother Wang Yan always changes the subject.”
Beiming Xue also pouted, “Humph, you’ve been asking the same question since yesterday, still not giving up today, we’re ignoring you.”
With that, both turned their heads back.
Yet shortly after, they turned back again.
“Brother Wang Yan’s so cheeky, he hasn’t answered our question?”
“Yeah, yeah, hurry and tell us.”
Their voices were sweet and charming, sounding so alluring it almost softened one’s bones.
Though Wang Yan seemed unaffected, Ma Jun was the first to cave, waving his hand, “Spare me, sisters, I can’t take it, with five minutes till class, I’ll go find Roy.”
With that, Ma Jun fled the classroom to find Roy in the neighboring class.
Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting didn’t make an effort to conceal their voices, the entire class nearly heard them.
All the boys prolonged their voices with a knowing “oh”, giving Wang Yan looks full of meaning.
In just a month, within the class, except Xiong Jie and “Dead Fish Eyes”, nearly all the boys shifted from jealousy and hostility towards Wang Yan to admiration and becoming his devoted followers.
So upon hearing Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting tease Wang Yan, male classmates cheered him on good-naturedly.
“Boss Wang Yan, your two elder sisters are being cute again.”
“Ladies, please consider us single guys, don’t you have sisters to introduce to us?”
“Leave the sister matter aside for now, we’re avoiding the class.”
With this, the male students stood up in unison and began to walk out of the classroom.
Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting’s faces turned crimson upon hearing this, gazing at Wang Yan with deep affection, filled with happiness.
