Chapter 40 Taking Medicine

"Whether you drink it or not, you can pay me back if you don't drink it. This seems to be a product promoted by the senior management. If it were not a performance that must be completed, I would not bother to give you these things."

The bartender sneered. He really hated the current working environment. His lazy mental state was actually the result of long-term use of sedative drugs, which made it difficult for the brain to concentrate.

"Hehehe, of course you have to try the good stuff...how do you use this?"

"Drink it directly, inject it, use it however you want."

The addict thanked him, hunched over and asked the bartender for a glass of ale, and walked silently to the corner.

The bartender wiped his glass tiredly. He had been in the deafening environment of this ballroom for a day. To be honest, he was so tired that he wanted to die.

Suddenly, the crackling sound of broken glass attracted his attention, and the bartender turned his head instantly. The addict stood there blankly, with his back straight, tears streaming down his face for some reason, and only the wine glass in his hand was left on the ground.

fragments.

The bartender sighed, walked over with a broom, and said in an indifferent tone: "The wine glass costs 20 taels."

"Ah, thank you, I will compensate you properly."

The bartender raised his head in shock, only to see the addict squatting down silently, picking up the remains of the glass bit by bit, and carefully putting them into the bartender's dustpan, as gently as if he was holding a life in his hands.

"Are you... okay?"

The addict's eyes were crystal clear, "Mr. Bartender, what kind of ridiculous life have I been living so far? I have made a mess of my life. There are obviously so many opportunities to change the status quo, but I chose to

I am willing to let myself fall. There is obviously someone who loves me waiting for me, but I am here. I'm sorry, sir, I will not appear here again. I want to change my life!"

"Ha?"

The bartender would almost bite off his own tongue. How could a drug addict say such a thing? Shouldn't your end be swollen and rotting in a rotten and smelly garbage heap?

Standing in the dance hall with loud music, the bartender held a broom and messed up alone.

"What on earth is going on..."

On this day, the addict found his wife overnight, apologized to her with tears, sincerely repented, and swore that he would work hard and that his tears would not be lies.

His wife forgave him, and they found their parents together and explained what happened.

The parents didn't believe in the drug addict at first. This bad guy who was addicted to drugs tore up the family and even beat his mother to steal money to buy drugs. But their son's words, deeds and eyes finally made them believe in miracles. This man really has become a drug addict.

Reformed!

They have agreed that they will use their remaining savings to find a job at dawn tomorrow, and his wife will work hard to support the family with him. They will get married, have a child, have their own family and happiness, and everything will be fine.

"Father, please believe me, my life has just begun!"

The addict's bold and confident words made the corners of the old father's eyes wet. Holding the wine glass, the father and son put their arms around each other and regained their lost family affection.

On this day, the addict said many, many things. Before going to bed, he firmly believed that he could do it, because now he was omnipotent...

the next day.

After the addict got up, his gloomy and tired mood made him weak, his body became cold, and he trembled and wanted to lie back under the quilt.

At this moment, the wife walked in happily and said in a hoarse voice: "A friend of mine said you can go to him and get an interview... Hey, what are you doing?"

"..." The addict lay motionless.

"I'm talking to you." His wife kicked him gently.

The addict shouted: "It's so noisy, get out of here!"

The wife trembled with fright. She realized something, and her tone was no longer frustrated or angry, but filled with blood-curdling horror.

"Luo Gang, aren't you ready to go to work again?"

"What did you tell me last night! You loser! You're a loser! You're a lazy maggot! You obviously promised me, you obviously - ahh!"

The addict stood up and struck with his fist.

————

At night, he walked sullenly on the streets of the city that never sleeps, wrapped in shabby, dirty and smelly clothes. For the whole day, it was like falling from a dream back to reality, and he became that good-for-nothing useless man again.

There has never been a moment when addicts were so restless and longing for that drug. With it, they can regain their hope in life!

In every corner of the city that never sleeps, people are discussing this newly released medicine, but its high price is really a serious problem, and addicts seriously believe that the price will definitely rise in the future.

!

5,000 Taal is far from its limit. This thing is probably released just for the lower class people to experiment with, and eventually it will be supplied to the middle class people in small quantities and to the upper class people in unlimited quantities!

Isn’t it always like this in the past? It will become a luxury they can’t afford!

Just when the gangsters were sighing, new news came - the new medicine has been reduced in price!

"The price should be high at the beginning, because expensive means good, and only good things will be sought after and cherished. Once it has a reputation, people will naturally buy it. It is meaningless to talk about it too much. You can understand it yourself."

Chen Ke is giving lessons to his subordinates. He has completely broken away from the low taste of human beings. He has no so-called concept of good and evil, but is just a means to achieve his goal.

However, the rich people in Tianji Province are indeed astonishingly bad. The next day, they started selling the new medicine as a functional drink throughout the city. The advertisements were overwhelming, occupying almost every corner that people could see!

This made the residents of the Nightless City wonder. The last time there was such a terrifying offensive product, what was it?

Anyone who buys new medicines out of curiosity will be more energetic, their work efficiency will be doubled, they will be in a happy mood, and they will be enriched and capable once they taste it!

Everyone wants to embrace a better version of themselves, but hard work is painful. If you can do this by taking medicine, then why not?

Soon, Chen Ke's medicine became popular throughout the city, and countless people started a new life. They called this medicine a miracle medicine and a gift from God. They hoarded a large amount of it at home and drank a bottle every morning to feel more energetic!

The city that never sleeps seems to be busier than usual, and the rumbling factories are running more happily. Some people have discovered that the duration of the medicine is extremely long, but the effect will disappear as soon as you wake up from sleep.

Even if the price is reduced, the price of a bottle of medicine still costs 500 tal. In order to save costs, some people choose to work crazier, work overtime, and work for 18 hours in a row without sleeping!

Even the boss was alarmed. He rushed over from home in his pajamas, held the worker's hand and said, "Brother, your work efficiency is really great!"

"So I decided to reduce the price per unit, and the price of each finished product was reduced from 8 tals to 7 tals."
Chapter completed!
