DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 1068 Speaking Plainly
"Heather, what on earth do you mean by that? Initially, we agreed on an exclusive agency, but now it's available for everyone to buy?"
"Exactly, and what's the meaning behind this extra two hundred million you're asking for? Do you think we're fools? Would we just hand over two hundred million for a drug that hasn't even been approved?" Indeed, many of these wealthy merchants had already witnessed the effects of the D1 Life Pill.
They simply thought that the price offered by Heather at that time was quite reasonable.
Although the price was a bit steep, all they needed to do was mark it up, and they could resell it to others, recouping the cost.
However, things took a turn now. If they wanted to buy medicine, they'd first need to spend two hundred million to acquire agency rights. Moreover, the price of these pills was also determined by Heather and her team.
This essentially set a limit on the profit of each pill.
While it was possible to recoup this profit in the long run if they were to do business over a long period of time, there were many projects in this world where they could make quick money as long as they had cash on hand. So why would they waste their time on this D1 Life Pill?
Seeing the growing excitement among these wealthy merchants, Heather sighed and said, "What am I to do with you all? If you still haven't understood my point, then I'll explain it to you again in detail right now. You can interpret it this way. This two hundred million is not for buying pills but for buying your lives. Now that I've said this, does anyone still think that two hundred million is too much?"
Before that, Heather thought that everyone was a person of dignity, so she didn't fully express her intention, hoping to save face for both parties.
What she hadn't anticipated was that these wealthy businessmen were playing dumb despite knowing better.
If Heather hadn't made things clear, they might actually have thought this was a business deal open to negotiation and continued to discuss business ethics with her.
Now that they had done that, they'd completely ticked Heather off.
So, to put it bluntly, two hundred million was for buying their lives.
Would any of them feel their life wasn't worth two hundred million?
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Heather chuckled lightly and said, "Since none of you have any objections, I'd appreciate your cooperation."
With a wave of her hand, Heather immediately had someone bring over a payment terminal from afar, allowing these tycoons to swipe their cards one by one.
Two wealthy individuals merely hesitated for a moment, only to be shot dead on the spot and then discarded into the sea.
With those examples set, no one wanted to risk their life for a small amount of money.
After all, money was something one could always earn again. But if one were to risk one's life for it, it was simply not worth it.
Just as everything was going smoothly, a discordant sound echoed from afar.
"Ms. Jenner, I've noticed that you folks don't seem to keep your word. We agreed that only I would produce this D1 Life Pill, so why have you made it public now? Do you think I can't afford to pay the price?" Upon hearing that there were still fools asking such questions, Heather felt a surge of anger in her heart.
She was about to turn around to see who was so fearless, only to find out that it was Donald approaching her.
Heather was taken aback instantly. What's going on? Could it be that Black Dragon's dead?
"How did you get out? Where's Black Dragon?"
Donald shrugged dismissively. "Black Dragon? You mean that loser who wanted to kill me? He's nothing but a pile of mush now. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to check." The fact that Donald could appear there spoke volume.
Heather just couldn't believe it. Black Dragon, such a formidable figure, was actually taken care of by Donald.
"Ms. Jenner, step back. I'll handle him."
With the death of Black Dragon, the responsibility for Heather's safety now solely rested on Tito.
