Chapter 556 Played for a Fool

• “Didn’t I tell you? I’ve got some skills in the pharma game—including modern medicine. I already promised Ling Hanyan that if she acquires Zenith Pharmaceuticals, I’ll develop a few high-performing meds for her and make sure she rakes in huge profits. That’s why she’s so willing to back me,” Finnian said, half-truth, half-bluff. He’d trained as a traditional medicine practitioner and knew little about modern medicine. Developing new drugs? Total BS.
• Still, medicine is medicine. Some principles overlap. He couldn’t invent a new pill, but with his top-tier traditional medicine skills, tweaking an existing formula to boost its effect? That he could do.
• “Of course, Ling Hanyan’s as shrewd as you. She never does a losing deal. If I try to talk her into selling you the Wellness Pharmaceutical Group branch shares at half price, she’ll squeeze me dry. I’d be lucky to get off with ceding territory and paying indemnities.”
