C712 Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkeys
The situation was still alright, although it was a new wine. It was not very popular, but after those distributors tasted this wine, all of them had a very high evaluation of this wine, and these people were very optimistic about the future prospects of this wine. Huang Feng was also willing to invest in the advertisement, putting all his remaining funds into it. If he could not get back the funds, he might even have the risk of losing the capital chain.
However, Huang Feng was not very worried. Not to mention that one of the two companies in the real world had started to make money. The other one's prospects were also very good, just like in the parallel space. In those two spaces, his businesses were also helping him make money steadily. It was just that Huang Feng did not mention that money at the moment. So... That was why he seemed to be in need of money.
With Huang Feng's investment, his new wine had gained some reputation before it went public. Many people were looking forward to it, and Huang Feng was also looking forward to his new wine to become famous.
As for Manager Yuan and the others, they had been quiet during this period of time. After Manager Yuan obtained the formula, although the production had already begun. However, before the production, he had changed some things. After all, the Heaven'S Pride Group had applied for a patent for the formula for the diet medicine. It was impossible for him to take the exact same thing out and slightly change some of the components that did not affect him much. After that, it would be listed on the market.
This was not too difficult for Manager Yuan. After a few days of hard work, he had completed the last few steps of his work. Now, he was also starting to produce the diet medicine. The advertisement was also anxious to be released. It was about to go public and fight against the Heaven'S Pride Group.
Su Yumo and Xie Mengjiao were somewhat wary of Manager Yuan's actions. They knew that if they were not confident, Manager Yuan would not make a move so easily. They also did not know what kind of move this fellow was going to make this time.
The bosses of the other companies also had doubts in their hearts at this moment. When they had been in contact with Manager Yuan, they had not heard that Orchid Bean Group was going to be listed in the market soon. This Manager Yuan was hiding too much.
These people seemed to have vaguely understood something. However, they still had some kind of expectation. They hoped that the Orchid Bean Group and the Heaven'S Pride Group would fight until both sides were severely injured. If that happened, they would be able to reap the benefits.
"Drag him out!"
In another space-time, in a very ordinary woodshed, An Ziqing covered his nose with one hand and said to his servant.
"Yes!"
The two servants in the woodshed hurriedly stepped forward and took the corpse that had just died. The fresh blood that seeped out of the corpse drew a clear trail on the ground. The face of the corpse still had a look of fear and unwillingness. However, it was obvious that he could not do anything anymore.
When the corpse was dragged to the door, Yang Guan shone on its face. It reflected a very young face. If Ouyang Xingwen was here... He would definitely recognize this person as his former follower. Wang Er!
This man who had just died was indeed Wang Er. After being interrogated by An Ziqing for a long period of time, An Ziqing, who had completely lost his patience, finally decided to give up. He believed that Wang Er was not lying. He really didn't know where the Storage Ring was. Therefore... If he continued interrogating, it would be a complete waste of time.
Therefore, today, when his final interrogation with Wang Er was still fruitless... He had his subordinates whip him to death. For a useless piece of trash like him, who had no value at all, he had no sympathy at all.
However, at the moment, other than An Ziqing, there was no one else in the woodshed. At the same time, that person's hands and feet were also tied up. Because he had just witnessed the entire process of Wang Er's death. Therefore... At this moment, this man's face was filled with terror. His face was deathly pale, without a trace of blood.
"Shun Zi, let me tell you again. There is a limit to my patience. You have seen what happened to Wang Er just now. There is no need for me to say anything else. If you still refuse to cooperate... Your outcome won't be any better than his. " An Ziqing said to the other person in the woodshed.
This was also another reason why An Ziqing killed Wang Er. He wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. He wanted the remaining person to tell the truth. As for the remaining person... It was the same Shun Zi who had come to seek refuge with An Ziqing.
After Shun Zi framed Ouyang Xingwen in the wine tower, he took advantage of the chaos to come out. After that, he came to seek refuge with An Ziqing. Initially, he was thinking that he could get a better life in An Ziqing's place. At the beginning, it was the same. After knowing what he had done, An Ziqing was very happy. He even rewarded him with some silver and arranged a good seat for him.
However, this situation didn't last long. The Blood-Red Mercenary Regiment and the Ouyang Family had a falling out because of the Vermilion Fruit. In the end, it still spread out, but the Vermilion Fruit didn't appear in the end. The Blood-Red Mercenary Regiment insisted that the Ouyang Family had switched sides, but the Ouyang Family refused to admit it. However, the outside world thought that the Vermilion Fruit should be in the Ouyang Family. Otherwise, the Blood-Red Mercenary Regiment wouldn't have any reason to attack the Ouyang Family, as that would only cause trouble for themselves.
The one who was most likely to obtain the Vermilion Fruit was Ouyang Xingwen. Adding the fact that Shun Zi was trying to sow discord in the Ouyang Family, it made people even more suspicious.
An Ziqing had heard of the Vermilion Fruit before, so he understood the function of the Vermilion Fruit. As for Shun Zi's words, he had also heard them. Therefore, he shifted his attention to Shun Zi. Coincidentally, Shun Zi was in his house. Naturally, he would not let him go.
Thus, Shun Zi experienced a tragedy that came from his mouth. He had initially planned to frame Ouyang Xingwen, but now, it had become his life seeking talisman. This was something that he had never thought of before.
"Young Master An, please let me go. I really didn't lie to you. I really don't know where that Vermilion Fruit is. Please let me go! I said it casually earlier. Didn't you ask me to sow discord between the Ouyang Family and the Blood-Red Mercenary Regiment? You have to keep your word!" Shun Zi said with tears streaming down his face.
However, An Ziqing had a heart of steel. He was not moved at all. He looked at Shun Zi with a cold expression and said, "It seems that you haven't suffered enough. Men, keep hitting me!"
