Medical Sovereign Chapter 418

Roberts's blue eyes glittered with greed. He said in a proud tone, “I have to say it's a miracle. Even my country with advanced medicine failed to develop such an amazing antibiotic. Since it can work on animals, I believe it can work on human beings as well with a possibility of over 90 percent. So, I have to take action ahead of others to get the formula and patent as fast as I can. Otherwise, when the solution passed all the tests, it will be seized away by other companies, which will disgrace me, who is in charge of the business in Asia. I can't let such a thing happen.”

Huang Shukang was suddenly enlightened and nodded his head, but soon, he looked worried for Roberts and said in a worried tone, “I've investigated Ding Ning. He is just a postgraduate, yet he lives in a villa and has expensive cars. It seems that he won't be in need of money. I'm afraid…”

“There is nothing to worry about. He is just a student, and money can buy everything in the world. If we can't buy him over with 10 million dollars, then we'll try with 100 million dollars. If 100 million dollars are not enough, then we'll try with a billion dollars. Remember, there is no so-called loyalty in the world because when facing considerable temptation, one could betray everything.”

Roberts continued in a confident tone, “Though he lives in a villa and has expensive cars, seemingly in no need of money, it doesn't mean that he doesn't love money. I believe he will be satisfied with what we offer him.”

When Roberts spoke of this, a cold light flashed within his eyes. “I'm trying fair means before resorting to force. If he doesn't know how to appreciate favors, I don't mind perishing him as well as the Rice Bean Oral Solution. I believe other pharmaceutical companies would like to see such a situation as well. After all, the development of the solution threatened the interest of many people.”

Huang Shukang trembled in fear. He did not expect Roberts to be so ruthless. He felt a little uneasy and wondered whether it was the right thing to bring Roberts to Ding Ning's house or not.

However, when thinking of that Roberts had promised to have him as the sole agency of Mecab Pharmaceutical Group in Asia after the plan succeeded, he was relieved. If the plan succeeded, he would be able to make huge profits from the business.

Moreover, Roberts would resort to force only when the negotiation collapsed. It's possible that Ding Ning would come to terms with Roberts. After all, in Huang Shukang's eyes, Ding Ning developed new medicament just for money.

Thinking of this, Huang Shukang felt even more relieved. As the old saying went, every man for himself, and the devil took the hindmost. To make the Jiuzhou Pharmaceutical Group the top pharmaceutical group in his country, Huang Shukang decided to take a risk.

“Who are you? Why do you want to see me?”

Dressed in a white gym suit, Ding Ning walked downstairs with a cold expression.

When he saw that Hare and Wasp lay huddled in a corner of the living room and were in a coma, chilling light flashed within his eyes.

“Young Master, they are evil people. They wounded Hare and Wasp!”

The 12 maids, including Chunlan, gathered around Ding Ning when they saw him as if they had seen their savior.

Ding Ning suppress his anger and said to them in a gentle tone, “Go back to your rooms and take a rest. Leave it to me.”

“Young Master, be careful!”

The maids reminded him with tearful eyes.

“Don't worry!”

Ding Ning watched them go back to their rooms with a gentle smile. After that, he put on a cold expression and went to Hare and Wasp to check on them. Seeing that they were just knocked out, he let out a sigh of relief.

“Are you Mr. Ding, who developed Rice Bean Oral Solution? I didn't expect you to be so young. It's true that heroes rise among youngsters.”

Roberts stood up with a smile and bowed slightly and elegantly toward Ding Ning to greet him. If it were not for that there were 12 fierce-looking bodyguards standing behind him, others would have thought that he was a gentleman.

Ding Ning ignored Roberts and poked Wasp's and Hare's bodies several times casually. Then, Wasp and Hare opened their eyes slowly, and when they saw Ding Ning, they said in a tone of shame, “Sorry, Young Master. We're so useless.”

“It doesn't matter. It's not your fault. Listen, I won't let those who broke into my house and wounded my men off.”

Ding Ning comforted them. He then turned back and looked at Roberts, who smiled embarrassedly, and said, “I'll give three minutes to explain your attention, and after that, I'll have it out with you.”

“Mr. Ding, how dare you talk to Mr. Roberts like that? Do you know who he is?”

Roberts narrowed his eyes and looked sullen. Ever since he arrived in Shenzhou, the people he had met all flattered him affably, because of which, he became more and more arrogant. He had not met anyone who dared to treat him like Ding Ning did.

He wanted to vent his anger, but when he thought of his intention, he suppressed it.

Huang Shukang, Roberts's lackey, was so good at observing others' countenance. He stood out and rebuked Ding Ning harshly upon hearing Ding Ning's words.

“Is he your dad?”

Ding Ning glanced at Huang Shukang with barely suppressed sarcasm and disdain in his eyes.

Huang Shukang was so angry at the words that he almost fainted. He pointed at Ding Ning with one of his fat fingers and could not say a word.

“Now, you only have two and a half minutes left.”

Ding Ning looked at his watch and reminded in a casual tone.

“You…”

Huang Shukang was about to call Ding Ning names but was stopped by Roberts, who reached out his hand and said to Ding Ning with an arrogant smile, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Ding. I'm Roberts, the head of the Asian branch of Mecab Pharmaceutical Group from Mi Country, and he is Huang Shukang, one of my friends in Shenzhou…”

“You can continue talking, but you just have two minutes and twenty seconds left.”

Ding Ning said indifferently without looking at Roberts's hands.

A hint of anger and embarrassment flashed within Roberts's eyes. He suppressed his anger again and said in a low tone, “Mr. Ding, Shenzhou has always been a state of ceremonies. As a man from Shenzhou, you shouldn't treat your guest like this.”

“Two minutes and seven seconds, six seconds, five seconds…”

Ding Ning's indifferent voice echoed. Roberts's face turned green and red after he heard the words. He replied quickly, “I came here for the Rice Bean Oral Solution that you have developed, Mr. Ding. Mecab Pharmaceutical Group would like to pay you 50 million dollars in exchange for the formula and permanent monopoly right of the solution. What do you think about it, Mr. Ding?”

“You still have one minute and forty seconds left. Are you finished?”

Ding Ning showed a mocking smile and wondered if Roberts had lost his mind. He would not sell the monopoly right of the solution to anyone. Even if he would, it was impossible for him to sell it to Roberts, who also wanted the formula, at 50 million dollars.

It should be noted that Rice Bean Oral Solution could not only replace Abel Antibiotic but also replace all kinds of antibiotics. Besides, the solution had no side effects. In other words, as long as Rice Bean Oral Solution went on the market, it would bring a destructive strike to those leading companies in Western countries.

The profits yielded in antibiotic medications accounted for 80% of the total profits yielded in all kinds of medications. In other words, the main profits of those leading international medical companies came from antibiotics. From this, it could be told that once Rice Bean Oral Solution went on the market, it would bring a huge strike to the Western medical market.

The only reason why Roberts wanted to get the Rice Bean Oral Solution yet offered such a low price was that he did not realize how promising the future of the solution would be.

Of course, even if he offered a sky-high price, Ding Ning would not sell it to him because he developed Rice Bean Oral Solution only to fight against Mecab Pharmaceutical Group.

He believed that if he dared to sell the formula to Mecab, his country would arrest him and shoot him to death on charges of treason.

As a good youth who was born in Shenzhou and grew up under banners, Ding Ning was aware of this.

As a result, even though Roberts increased the price from 50 million dollars to a billion, Ding Ning was not to be swayed. He said indifferently, “Time is up.”

“Wait, apart from a billion dollars, I promise you on behalf of Mecab Pharmaceutical Group that we will apply a Green Card of Mi Country for you.”

Roberts showed the cards in his hand. He looked at Ding Ning with a reserved smile and was full of confidence. He could foresee that Ding Ning would shout and urge him to sign a contract on the spot with tears of joy.

He believed that nobody could resist the temptation of becoming a citizen of the great Mi Country; otherwise, there would not have been so many people of Shenzhou who tried every means to get a Green Card of Mi Country.

Thus, in Roberts's eyes, it was certain that Ding Ning would accept his request despite that the price, a billion dollars, was high beyond his expectation. However, he still thought it was worth it compared with the wealth that Rice Bean Oral Solution could produce.

Huang Shukang clicked his mouth in envy and looked at Ding Ning with greedy eyes. He said to himself with jealousy, “It's true that knowledge is wealth. If I can invent a medication like Rice Bean Oral Solution, I will be able to go anywhere I want.”

“Are you finished? If you're finished, it's time for us to settle the account.”

Ding Ning looked at Roberts calmly, which made Roberts's confident smile freeze. Roberts opened his mouth wide and showed an expression of disbelief, saying, “Oh my God, did I hear you wrong? Did you mean that you refused my proposal? No, it's impossible. How could you refuse me? No company could offer you a better price.”

“Yes, if I were you, I would accept it right away. Mr. Ding, waiting for a higher price to sell is beyond reproach in business, but going beyond the limit is as bad as falling short. Be careful that you will get nothing in the end.”

Huang Shukang kept nodding his head and tried to persuade Ding Ning with an expression of feeling angry at him and having pity for him.

Ding Ning stared at Huang Shukang with a cold expression in his eyes, and sharp lights started to flash in his eyes. He said with barely suppressed disdain and aversion, “I'm from the great Shenzhou. Why would I choose to become a fake foreign guy? If I do so, I'm afraid that my ancestors would climb out from their tombs and choke me to death. How could your country, a barbarian country with a history of only three hundred years, compare with my country, a nation with a history of five thousand years? Nobody would stop you from sucking the asses of those Mi Country guys, but don't drag me with you. You don't deserve being one of Shenzhou people. Shenzhou, and talking to you made me sick. Because there are so many people like you who betrayed our country, those foreigners become so arrogant and think so highly of themselves.”

Regardless of that Huang Shukang blushed with anger and shame and almost fainted after being scolded, Ding Ning turned to point at Roberts's nose and continued with cold lights in his eyes, “And you, you're just a superintendent of Mecab Pharmaceutical Group in Asia. How dare you break into my house and beat my men? Even in your country, where people claimed to be liberal and democratic but actually behaved shamelessly, it is a serious crime to break into other's house and you only have yourself to blame if you committed such a crime and was beaten to death by the owner. So, don't talk about etiquettes in Shenzhou with me. There is an old saying in Shenzhou, which is, treat friends with fine wine and wolves with guns.”

Before Roberts, who was dumbfounded by the words, could react, Ding Ning slapped him on the face and said, “This is for Uncle Zhang. It's inhuman of you to beat such an old man.”

“Slap!”

“This is for Wasp. You outnumbered us, but if it had not been for that we're not allowed to possess guns in Shenzhou, you would have already died.”
