Chapter: 751
In fact, not just Grandpa but all elderly people are probably unable to resist the huge allure of the Revival Pill.
After receiving the invitation, Ye Chen did consider what gift to prepare for Grandpa.
Thinking and thinking, he felt that Grandpa wouldn't care about money, so it would be better just to give him a Revival Pill straight away.
The Revival Pill is nothing special to me; the most expensive cost will only be 300 years of extremely rare Purple Ginseng.
Moreover, I helped Wei's illegitimate son Wei Liang; Wei Liang sent me his family heirloom, the thousand-year Snow Grass, as a token of gratitude. This thousand-year Snow Grass would have a much better effect if used to refine medicine than Revival Pill.
So, giving Song Old Master one Revival Pill not only allows me to sell Song Old Master's favor, but it also doesn't cost me too much, and I can say it's a win-win situation.
Just then, Song Wan Ting said to Ye Chen, "Master Ye, the old master has invited quite a few of your friends. You'll have time to chat with them later."
"Oh?" Ye Chen asked with a smile, "Who did he invite?"
Song Wan Ting said, "The vice chairman of the Emperor Group, Wang Dong Xue. I heard she's on good terms with you."
Ye Chen nodded slightly, saying, "She is."
Song Wan Ting smiled slightly and said, "Today, she will be coming too."
As she spoke, Song Wan Ting paused for a moment before adding, "As for the heads of the Wang and Qin families, there's no need to mention them. They've always been on good terms with you, right?"
Ye Chen laughed, saying, "That's true."
Song Wan Ting said again, "The old master has also invited Wei Liang, the chairman of Wei Pharmaceutical, who I heard is someone you helped get established."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Wei Liang is an illegitimate child and has always been looked down upon. Additionally, his father and his half-brother who shares the same biological father have offended me, so I decided to take him under my wing."
Song Wan Ting smiled slightly and said, "Master Ye, I heard that you had Hong Wu send this father-son duo to Long Bai Mountain to dig for herbs?"
"That's right," Ye Chen replied indifferently. "Since he looks down on Long Bai Mountain anyway, I decided to send him there to reflect on his actions."
Song Wan Ting laughed and said, "I heard that they were pretty miserable in Long Bai Mountain. They only got some food after digging for herbs, and during the recent snowstorm, they couldn't go up the mountain or gather any herbs. Eventually, they went to their hometown and stole a chicken, but ended up getting beaten so badly they couldn't get up again. Right now, they're eating tree bark in a dilapidated shack."
Ye Chen asked curiously, "How did you manage to pay attention to all this? Even I didn't bother to find out what happened to them."
Song Wan Ting's face turned slightly red as she said with some embarrassment, "I just felt that they deserved their punishment, so I wanted to know what kind of punishment they received. Then I found out more about it."
Ye Chen laughed and said, "As for the group sent to Jinxing to dig coal, did you find out about them too?"
Song Wan Ting smiled again and said, "Yes! They seem to be really miserable. Every day, they work in the coal mine for 12 hours, with a very poor working environment, high intensity workload, and not even enough food. I heard that by nightfall, over ten people would cry together in the public square......"
"Ye Chen smiled and said, 'This is the price of being wicked.'"
"Yes!" Song Wan Ting nodded heavily and said, "These people are all reaping what they have sown."
As she spoke, Song Wan Ting had already pulled the car into the Song family's villa. JrNovels.com
