Chapter 24

Just like that medicinal formula for the golden wound, it would heal in three days, but such an effect seemed incredible. After Mo Zhitao adjusted the dosage, it was delayed to five days, but even this speed was astonishing.

Mo Zhitao also wrote down the effects of the formulas to make it easier for Shen Hua and the others to submit them for inspection.

Seeing so many formulas and their effects, Shen Hua couldn't help but widen his eyes. He had found a treasure. These medicines were unique, and they could apply for patents.

"Zhitao, as long as the formulas are as effective as you say, we will definitely make a lot of money. Let's call our pharmaceutical factory 'Shen Zhitao Pharmaceutical Factory.' Damn, Zhitao, how can you be so amazing at such a young age?" Shen Hua exclaimed excitedly.

"Brother Hua, this is my secret, don't tell anyone else, and don't mention that this 'Shen Zhitao Pharmaceutical Factory' is related to me," Mo Zhitao reminded him.

"If our factory makes money, I can give you some new formulas."

"That's great, that's really great," Shen Hua smiled, showing his teeth.

He had always been thinking about switching to other businesses. Some friends had told him that the pharmaceutical business was very profitable.

He had already started looking for a bankrupt pharmaceutical factory and had found some connections, preparing to produce some ordinary medicines with some general formulas. He never expected to meet Mo Zhitao, and this time he would make a fortune.

"Brother, I see your financial situation isn't very good. I'll have someone transfer a million to you as an advance on your share."

Mo Zhitao waved his hand and said, "Brother Hua, don't do that. Let's wait until the factory makes money."

"Don't worry, it will definitely make money. I don't even need to mention other medicines; just the aphrodisiac, I will definitely take it every day. Many of my business friends also want to regain their vigor. If you don't take this million, I'll be angry," Shen Hua said, pretending to be angry.

Seeing Shen Hua say this, Mo Zhitao didn't refuse anymore.

Mo Zhitao found that although Shen Hua had been cautious of him before, he became very generous after they became friends. This made Mo Zhitao no longer doubt that Shen Hua would secretly take his formulas to make money on his own. According to industry norms, such formulas were very valuable, and Shen Hua should have given him some advance payment.

Shi Qianzhi brought a female secretary over. The secretary was average-looking, but Shen Hua said she had a master's degree in Chinese and a bachelor's degree in law, and she had a lawyer's license.

"Brother Hua, not bad, you found such a capable female secretary," Mo Zhitao said with a smile as he signed the contract.

"Ah, don't tease me. The female secretary was found by my wife. She deliberately chose someone with this appearance, knowing my weakness, so I can't even think about cheating," Shen Hua said with a bitter face.

The female secretary and Shi Qianzhi were eating on the side and couldn't hear their conversation.

"But to be honest, she is a bit ugly, but she is very capable."

"Brother Hua, I have a favor to ask," Mo Zhitao said hesitantly.

Shen Hua gave Mo Zhitao a stern look, "We are brothers, don't say such things. What is it?"

"It's like this, I want you to help me investigate the Cheng family in Qingmei City," Mo Zhitao said seriously.

"The Cheng family from Remote Group?" Shen Hua frowned.

"Yes," Mo Zhitao nodded.

Shen Hua said with a bitter face, "Brother, the Cheng family is very wealthy and powerful. I can't afford to offend them. Do you have a grudge against them?"

Remote Group had many subsidiaries, and the most profitable was the pharmaceutical company. This was also one of the reasons why Shen Hua wanted to develop in the pharmaceutical industry.

"Brother Hua, how could I have a grudge against the Cheng family?" Mo Zhitao said with a deliberate smile.

"It's just that a friend asked me to investigate the Cheng family. If you have any information, can you tell me?"

"Sure, I'll have someone investigate. If there's any news, I'll have them send it to you," Shen Hua said.

"Thank you, Brother Hua," Mo Zhitao said happily.

With Li Xiong helping him investigate in the district and Shen Hua helping him in the city, he had some connections. Shen Hua's business partnership with him was also promising, and he expected to make some money. However, Mo Zhitao was not satisfied with these small achievements. Even with Shen Hua's strength, he dared not challenge the Cheng family, let alone himself.

Shen Hua and the others returned to the city. He was an impatient person and said he would start working on the pharmaceutical factory immediately.

Mo Zhitao also thought about finding a house nearby. His current rental place was far from the hospital, and it was inconvenient to do things sometimes. Anyway, he now had over a million, so buying a large house was not a problem.

In today's society, money makes things easier. Mo Zhitao found a house for rent or sale not far from the hospital. It was only three bus stops away, about ten minutes.

Mo Zhitao went to see the house. It was a duplex with 210 square meters, on the 18th floor, the top floor. There were six rooms on two floors, and the price was 700,000. The furniture and appliances were included, making it very cheap.

Mo Zhitao liked the house as soon as he saw it. He used to live in a villa at the Cheng family's, which was much more beautiful.

But now was different, and he had to make do. However, his previous rental place was too poor, without air conditioning, and the house was small, making him very uncomfortable. Therefore, Mo Zhitao signed the transfer contract with the original owner and transferred 700,000 to him.

Seeing the complete setup, with a phone, TV, computer, and internet, Mo Zhitao wouldn't have to go to internet cafes anymore. He went to the master bedroom and saw that the sheets needed to be changed. He called a housekeeping company to send people to clean and buy new sheets and other items.

In the evening, Mo Zhitao returned to his rental place and received a call from Xu Xiaohai.

"Zhitao, that pockmarked guy is still lingering in the hospital, saying he is very sick and might die. But we checked his body, and he should be fine; he's just faking it."

"Damn, I'll go check tomorrow," Mo Zhitao said angrily.

After taking a shower, Mo Zhitao read the Yin-Yang Medical Classic for about an hour, and his body started to heat up again.

"Can't be, is my illness flaring up again?" Mo Zhitao said to himself.

He took out the needles and inserted them into his acupoints, but it didn't seem to have much effect. What's going on? If I'm having a fever, this method should work, but why isn't it effective? Why is my body like this?

Suddenly, Mo Zhitao's body turned red. This time, he didn't faint. Seeing his body turn red, he was scared.

"Heaven, why is this happening? No, I need to call an ambulance." When Mo Zhitao took out his phone, he realized that even with his medical skills, he couldn't save himself, let alone expect other doctors to help.

Mo Zhitao's body became hotter and redder, and sweat dripped from his forehead. Slowly, he couldn't hold on and fell onto the bed.

At this moment, a black shadow floated in from outside. He had been watching Mo Zhitao and, seeing his unusual condition today, rushed in.

The black shadow struck a few acupoints on Mo Zhitao's body, and Mo Zhitao's body moved a few times, then stopped moving.

"Is he dying?" the black shadow said in surprise.

He bit his lip and pressed his hand on Mo Zhitao's Baihui point. After a moment, a white mist rose from Mo Zhitao's Baihui point, and Mo Zhitao opened his eyes.

"Who are you?" Mo Zhitao was startled to see the masked black-clothed person. "Are you here to steal?"

The black-clothed person didn't expect Mo Zhitao to wake up so quickly. Could this be the peculiar effect of the Golden Dragon Snake? Thinking this, the black-clothed person decided to talk to Mo Zhitao.

"Mo Zhitao, what do you have to steal? Tell me how you feel now," the black-clothed person said. He was the same black-clothed person who saw Mo Zhitao at Linhu Lake, thinking Mo Zhitao was dead, but Mo Zhitao not only survived but was alive and well.

Mo Zhitao's body turned red every night, and the thugs couldn't hurt him with iron pipes, which was strange.

"Who are you?" Mo Zhitao wanted to know what was happening.

"Call me the mysterious person. You ate the extremely poisonous Golden Dragon Snake at Linhu Lake. You were supposed to die that night, but you didn't. Your body seems to be a bit stronger, more resistant to physical attacks," the black-clothed person said, then struck Mo Zhitao's body.

With a slap, the black-clothed person was also startled. He used a bit of internal strength, but Mo Zhitao's body just shook and didn't spit blood.

"Tsk, that was just a light slap, how could it test anything?" Mo Zhitao said dismissively.

The black-clothed person raised his hand and said, "I used the same force just now. Look at this iron cabinet."

The black-clothed person struck the iron cabinet, and the sturdy cabinet was dented.

"My God, are you human? You used that much force on me?" Mo Zhitao was shocked.

"You're the one who isn't human!" the black-clothed person glared at Mo Zhitao. "I hit you with that much force, and you're fine?"

"Ha ha ha, does that mean my body is tougher than this iron cabinet?" Mo Zhitao was excited. If that was the case, he wouldn't be so afraid of enemies. He could wait until they were tired from hitting him and then finish them off with one move.

The black-clothed person shook his head and said, "I only used a little force. Don't get too confident."

"Tsk, don't lie to me. Can you even hurt me?" Mo Zhitao stood up confidently.

Those thugs hit him with iron pipes that night, and he was fine. Why would he be afraid of this black-clothed person? Moreover, the black-clothed person's voice sounded like an old man, who wouldn't be a match for him.
