Chapter 453: Lab Mice
Chapter 453: Lab Mice
Li Wan'er quickly shook her head and waved her hands.
Fang Xiaoxiao was too lazy to waste any more words with her, so she went straight to Zhou Wenjian and muttered to herself.
"Go find two of your men to grab a few people with colds and fevers on the street and bring them into the shop. We'll treat them for free."
Zhou Wenjian always listened to his wife's advice and never questioned her words.
He nodded and then left the shop with two assistants.
Russian qing.
Just as Fang Xiaoxiao was explaining the principle of the pills to her colleagues, Zhou Wenjian came over with two patients suffering from colds and fevers.
Among the patients with colds and fevers, one was a young man and the other was an elderly man.
With incredulous expressions, the two helped each other into the store.
They were bewildered and helpless, yet also resigned to their fate.
The main reason is poverty.
To put it bluntly, even living under the emperor's nose, not everyone can have enough to eat and wear.
There will always be some people who still live on the margins of society.
Like America, Landmark Square is their proudest place.
It's a place of dazzling lights and advanced technology.
But when you actually go there, you'll find homeless people everywhere, lying on the street sleeping.
Fang Xiaoxiao noticed that the test mice had arrived, and immediately instructed the waiter to get two cups of warm water.
After handing the water to the two patients, she took out two pills and said...
"Eat this, and I guarantee your cold will be cured immediately."
"This……"
The elderly man seemed very hesitant.
He felt that he was just sick, not that he wanted to die.
Faced with the unknown, he instinctively wanted to refuse.
In contrast, the young man beside him was quite different.
Without a second thought or even the slightest hesitation, the young man grabbed the pills, swallowed them whole, and then drank the warm water in his hand.
In his view, life and death are preordained, and wealth and honor are determined by fate.
Whether you die sooner or later, you'll die eventually. At worst, you'll just die now.
However, it's pitiful that his eighty-year-old mother is still at home waiting for his return.
But if he cannot cure his illness, he will die eventually.
The term "cold and fever" was coined by Fang Xiaoxiao, who then widely publicized it in Kyoto.
Therefore, many people know what it means.
The old man's heart skipped a beat when he saw the young man's pained expression as he swallowed the pills, and even the hand holding the cup trembled slightly involuntarily.
My goodness, no wonder he's young, he really doesn't care about life and death and will fight if he's not convinced.
The old man admired the young man's courage, but he valued his life and was unwilling to take risks.
He could only get up from the table and say apologetically.
"I am truly sorry for your kindness, Madam Fang. I have an eighty-year-old child to raise and an elderly mother to feed."
"I assure you that I will not utter a single word about what happened today after I leave here."
"!!!"
Fang Xiaoxiao was speechless at the old man's nonsense.
Fortunately, she didn't want to say anything more to the old man.
As the old saying goes, there's always someone who's the first to try something new.
As long as that person says it's good, others will flock to find it.
"Grandpa, we won't force you, and you don't need to be so reserved. If you'd like, could you help us promote Lingxi Pavilion's newly developed cold medicine pills?"
"Okay...okay, Manager Fang, don't worry, this old man will definitely help you spread the word."
After the old man finished speaking, he ran towards the gate as if he were flying, completely different from when he had just come in.
Wow, no wonder he's an elderly person, he's still in pretty good health.
Fang Xiaoxiao jokingly watched the old man leave.
After the old man left, she stood up and looked at the young man who had finished taking his medicine.
The young man had his eyes tightly closed, looking as if he were facing certain death, as if he had just swallowed not medicine to cure a cold and fever, but a poison as potent as arsenic.
At this moment, Zhou Wenjian stepped forward, stood beside her, and asked in a low voice.
"My wife, is he dead?"
"Nonsense, how could that be?"
Fang Xiaoxiao glared at him, annoyed.
Li Wan'er also spoke hesitantly and timidly.
"Well, if Xiao Xiao really dies, don't worry, I can talk to my father and have him speak to the prefect."
"Forehead!!!"
No one believed the pills in her hand.
But what happened next surprised everyone.
The young man suddenly unleashed astonishing strength.
He jumped up from the bench with a "whoosh".
Then he shouted loudly.
"I'm cured! I'm actually cured! My back doesn't ache anymore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I feel like I can climb five flights of stairs in one go!"
Goodness, if he went to buy Brain Gold (a health supplement), he'd break records in no time.
There was no trace of acting.
Fang Xiaoxiao muttered a few words to herself.
She then spoke in a deep voice.
"See? Our shop is honest and fair, we don't cheat people!"
"They can cure any disease with a single dose of medicine, something those quacks can't match."
"Yes, yes, yes, Manager Fang, you are truly a divine being reborn. You are far more powerful than that old man with the bull-nose nose. Just this little pill can restore my body to its original state."
"He is truly the greatest immortal in the history of our Great Yu Dynasty. Please, Manager Fang, I bow down in reverence."
The young man clasped his hands together and bowed with great piety and respect.
After this farce...
Everyone then showed expressions of surprise and astonishment.
Especially Li Wan'er, the smile on her lips was so captivating that even AK couldn't suppress it.
She reached out and tugged at Fang Xiao's sleeve, looking like a little white rabbit.
"Xiao Xiao, I'm sorry, I was speaking too loudly just now."
"?.?"
As the saying goes, women can change their minds faster than turning the pages of a book, and admit their mistakes more often than rain.
Fang Xiaoxiao was speechless, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Who told her to be a princess, while she was just a speculator?
"It's okay, that's all in the past. We're best friends, we said we'd be together through thick and thin, supporting each other."
“You said before that your father was sick and couldn’t get out of bed or eat. Now, with my newly developed medicine, he can get out of bed and eat several large bowls of rice.”
Li Wan'er smiled and nodded, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons.
Next.
Fang Xiaoxiao first went back to her room and asked the maid to prepare hot water.
Finished washing.
She then put on a plain white long dress, draped a white fur robe over her shoulders, and wore off-white cloud boots.
Honestly, even in the 21st century, this outfit would be a deadly counter to internet celebrities who wear ancient costumes.
In addition, she is very beautiful, with an oval face, big eyes, cherry lips, and a high nose bridge, and her body proportions are impeccable.
Standing next to Pei Yan, who is 180cm tall, she was only about half a head shorter.
After leaving Lingxi Pavilion, we boarded a carriage.
Li Wan'er had been waiting for a long time.
The two of them roasted over a charcoal fire, drank tea, and ate pastries as they made their way towards the Li residence.
We arrived at the Li residence.
Li Wan'er, with Fang Xiaoxiao by her side, was happy and skipping around like rabbits just released from their cages, appearing very lively and agile.
We arrived at the main hall.
