Chapter 158: An Unexpected Approach to the Truth
"What? Dr. Hou is embarrassed?"
"It's... Mr. Xi, I promised Chairman Liu not to leak the secret recipe to others, if I tell you the recipe and let Chairman Liu know, it will be terrible. Hou Songbo was embarrassed.
"In that case, then I won't embarrass Dr. Hou. Xue Xiao leaned lazily on the sofa and said to Hou Songbo: "If Dr. Hou still wants to stay here and refill the cup of hot tea, please do it." I still have something to do, so I won't greet you. ”
After Xue Xiao finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the office area in the middle, leaving Hou Songbo with an embarrassed face and Jones who was looking at Hou Songbo with a smile.
"That...... I'm right to call you Mr. Joan?" Hou Songbo smiled and accosted Jones.
Jones saw that Hou Songbo had completely lost the arrogance at the beginning, and he was more sure of Xue Xiao's guess in his heart.
This Hou Songbo, who looks like a villain, how can he be the developer of the Scar Removal King?
If he is really such a great character, how can he stay in an inconspicuous Liu family, and even now he is looking for Tianzi No. 1?
Eighty percent of this man is an impostor, or he has stolen the fruits of others and used them to deceive the world by signing his own name.
If that's the case, then who will be the real developer of the Scar King?
Where did that man go?
Why did Hou Songbo steal his results?
"Mr. Joan?" Hou Songbo saw Jones fall into deep thought, and pulled Jones back to his senses.
Jones came back to his senses and said to Hou Songbo with a charming face: "Well, Dr. Hou can call him whatever he likes, anyway, the left and right are just a name, and it doesn't matter." ”
"Haha, since that's the case, I'll call you Mr. Qiong, Mr. Qiong, I want to confirm the next ......" Hou Songbo said a little unspeakably: "What did Mr. Xi mean just now, is it that if I take out that secret recipe, I can come to Tianzi No. 1 to work?"
"Could it be that Mr. Xi's meaning is not clear and Dr. Hou can't understand it?" Jones looked at Hou Songbo calmly with the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
Jones's eyes became calmer, which made Hou Songbo more and more restless.
"I ...... Of course I didn't mean that!" Hou Songbo wiped the cold sweat on his forehead that didn't exist.
"Since Dr. Hou understands what Mr. Xi means, why ask again?"
Jones crossed his arms and looked at Hou Songbo with a lofty attitude:
"If Dr. Hou is interested in Tianzi No. 1, you may wish to consider Mr. Xi's suggestion. ”
"This ...... I'll think about it, can I trouble Mr. Qiong to tell Mr. Xi on my behalf, can I give him an answer tomorrow?"
"Of course no problem!" Jones brows and eyes curled, and his face was full of charm.
......
The next day, Hou Songbo really obediently presented the secret recipe, and by the way, he also consciously sorted out an analysis report that he had studied for a long time.
Thinking about it, Hou Songbo thought about it and still couldn't pull his face back to Liu's.
He thought that he had already offended Liu Huakang completely anyway, and it didn't matter if he continued to offend.
He honestly handed over the secret recipe, which could not only sell Tianzi No. 1 a favor, but also find a job for himself, why not?
As the saying goes, people don't destroy heaven and earth for their own sake.
He is understandable for doing so.
Hou Songbo is quite satisfied with the position he got in Tianzi No. 1.
Jones gave him the position of "Quee."
Jo
e"The director of the beauty product R&D department, of course, this is also what Xue Xiao meant.
Xue Xiao was thinking that he would arrange an important position for Hou Songbo, and he would definitely work hard to show his talent at the beginning.
Xue Xiao wanted to see what his true level was like.
Although there is no evidence, through Hou Songbo's observation, she can be 100% sure that the Scar Removal King is definitely not from the hand of Hou Songbo in front of her......
Inside an old house on the outskirts of the North City......
Xue Xiao held the secret recipe for beauty in his hand from Hou Songbo, and stared at Zhai Lao, who was lying on the chaise longue in the pavilion with his eyes closed.
"Little girl, how many times have I said it, studying such a low-end thing is too low-grade to lower my grade! I won't do this kind of work, old man, don't pestle my eyes here, let's go!"
Zhai Lao was entangled by Xue Xiao, and he was upset, and he couldn't wait to drive her away immediately.
"Old Zhai, are you sure you won't help me take a look? Could it be that this incomplete secret recipe in my hand didn't come from your old man's hand?" Xue Xiao shook the handwritten recipe in his hand.
The medicinal materials on this recipe were also taken by herself to the Chinese medicine shop.
Although there are some precious medicinal materials on the recipe that cannot be bought in pharmacies, it is not difficult for the Xue family in Beicheng to gather these things.
After finding all the medicinal materials on the recipe, Xue Xiao put these medicinal materials together to study, and faintly smelled a strange smell from them.
Xue Xiao thought that this smell should be the smell of these medicinal herbs being put together and mixed.
But that's not the point, the point is that Xue Xiao always smells very familiar with this disgusting smell, as if he has smelled it somewhere.
If you think about it carefully, isn't this strange smell the smell of the things that the stinky old man in front of her used to treat her and greet her face?
At that time, because of this old man's prank, she didn't dare to go out for several days with a face full of red bumps, yellow water, and a strange smell.
"You...... What nonsense are you stinking girl? How could I make such a ......, old man? Something that doesn't go on the table!"
Because of Xue Xiao's words, Zhai Lao finally reacted, quickly got up from the recliner, and snatched the secret recipe for beauty from Xue Xiao's hand.
Looking at the names of the medicinal herbs densely listed on the secret recipe, Zhai Lao's face became more and more ugly.
"What's going on, stinky old man? Is this crippled secret recipe from your old man's hand?"
Xue Xiao saw Zhai Lao's calm face, and guessed that this recipe must have something to do with him.
Just watching this stinky old man's face become more and more heavy, Xue Xiao couldn't help but gloat.
This old man did her revenge last time, and she hasn't had time to revenge it!
Now that she's unhappy, she's happy!
It's just that...... Xue Xiao thought of being hated by this old man, so he naturally thought of Gu Moxi.
At that time, it was Gu Moxi who accompanied her to find Zhai Lao.
I don't know, how is he doing now?
Did he take a minute out to think about her?
Xue Xiao, who was originally gloating because Zhai Lao's face had become ugly, suddenly became depressed.
"Girl, let me ask you, where did you get this recipe?" Zhai Lao suddenly asked with a serious face, pulling Xue Xiao, who was lost in his heart, back to his senses.
"This ...... Is there something wrong?" Xue Xiao saw Zhai Lao's serious face, and suddenly felt a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Tell me why you know it's a broken recipe. Elder Zhai asked Xue Xiao.
"Because...... Someone has made a beauty cream through this secret recipe, but the effect is not significant. ”
Xue Xiao saw Zhai Lao, who was an old naughty boy, with a rare serious look, thinking that things might not be simple, so he told Zhai Lao one by one:
"So I guess that either the people who developed the research and development are not skilled at home, or the prescription is incomplete. ”
After listening to Xue Xiao's words, Elder Zhai said thoughtfully:
"I did come up with such a beauty recipe based on the ancient palace secret recipe, but this ...... you brought here"
"What's wrong with this?" Xue Xiao asked anxiously.
"The recipe you brought over is completely inconsistent with the one I wrote. My recipe is a serious beauty secret recipe, and you're ...... But it's a poison prescription!"
"What...... What do you mean? You mean...... Isn't this a secret recipe for beauty?" Xue Xiao said in surprise.
"It seems to be a secret recipe for beauty, but in fact, some of the herbs in it are mixed together to form a toxin. ”
When Zhai Lao said this, his face became difficult again:
"When these things are applied to the surface of the skin, they will slowly penetrate into the bloodstream, thus changing parts of the structure of the human body, causing immeasurable consequences. ”
"What...... What?"
Changing the structure of parts of the human body?
Could it be that there really be such outrageous things in this world?
Zhai Lao's statement made Xue Xiao unconsciously think of the appearance of his father when he was ill in the Xue family's underground infirmary.
At that time, she seemed to hear her grandfather and Jairo say that the toxins in her father's body were about to be suppressed.
What happened to her father's body?
Also, why did her blood work wonders for suppressing the toxins in her father's body?
"Little girl, where did you get this recipe? Who else knows the existence of this recipe? What you have developed with this recipe must not flow out of the market, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Elder Zhai looked at Xue Xiao seriously.
"This recipe was begged for by Liu Huakang, the chairman of the Liu family, for a lot of money, and I don't know where it came from. ”
Xue Xiao looked at the secret recipe in Zhai Lao's hand with a complicated expression.
At the beginning, in order to recover the shares of Xue's in Liu Huakang's hands, she knew that there were people in the Liujia factory who replaced precious medicinal materials with some chemical products in order to get kickbacks, but she remained silent and allowed the situation to develop.
In the end, Tianzi No. 1 pretended to buy this batch of products of poor quality, and used the huge liquidated damages clause in the contract to force Liu Huakang to sell his Xue's shares to repay the debt.
She successfully recovered Xue's shares from Liu Huakang, and the Liujia factory was also seized, and now the batch of products with quality problems are still in the warehouse of Tianzi No. 1.
They all thought that the quality of that batch of products was not up to par, just because some people in the factory privately exchanged medicinal materials in order to make black money, and there was no problem with the formula and the research and development products themselves.
Now it seems that she is crooked, causing the Liujia factory to be closed early, thus preventing this batch of harmful products from flowing out of the market.
Because even if there is no factory director to make black money, these products produced by the Liu family are still a scourge.
Xue Xiao faintly noticed that someone seemed to be playing a big game of chess behind his back......
