Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Are Their Hearts Eaten by Dogs?
“It’s all settled.” Noting the puzzled looks from the three, Xia Liu nodded earnestly.
“Wow! Brother Xia Liu, what did you just say?” Liu Lanxin was baffled. It was settled just like that?
Liu Liguang and Liu Buyi were also puzzled. Was it really settled just like that?
Are you kidding?
Just one phone call, and Xia Liu’s tone was almost soaring to the skies.
If this could actually change the sales of the medicinal liquor, that would be absolutely amazing.
...
“You’ll see tonight.” Xia Liu didn’t explain right away, after all, it was something that no one would believe if he merely spoke about it.
Only when Huang Yilong and Yang Tian actually arrived, showing their Huaxia currency and taking the medicinal liquor back, would it become a reality.
“Alright, then we’ll just have to wait and see!” Liu Lanxin bit her lip slightly, Xia Liu, this guy, still keeping secrets.
If it doesn’t get settled, don’t blame me for not giving him face!
“Hehe, let’s not talk about that anymore. It’s not often Xia Liu comes here, Liguo, you go back and instruct them to prepare a few tables to whet the appetite,” Liu Buyi said with a smile.
Somehow, he had an intuition that Xia Liu could really handle this well.
How should I put it, the raw materials for the medicinal liquor came from him, and the price was so high too.
If he didn’t handle it with care, the orders from this side would definitely decrease more and more in the future.
Therefore, Liu Buyi believed that Xia Liu was indeed making a diligent effort.
In the next hour, Xia Liu and Liu Buyi chatted idly in the office.
Liu Liguang and Liu Lanxin went home to prepare the banquet.
Not exactly a banquet, just an ordinary arrangement with careful attention, hoping to make a good impression on Xia Liu.
After receiving a call, Xia Liu drove Liu Buyi to the Liu Family estate.
Unlike before, the people of the Liu Family were respectful on the surface when they saw Xia Liu, but as soon as they turned their backs, Xia Liu could hear many sarcastic remarks.
Xia Liu wasn’t finding it difficult to guess that he had raised the cost price of the medicinal liquor to the current price.
Definitely, that would provoke dissatisfaction among many people; even though they didn’t say it to his face, they would certainly discuss him behind his back.
Under the guidance of Liu Buyi, Xia Liu arrived at an artificial lake.
Under a pavilion ahead, a large table was quietly set.
Like Xia Liu, a few people were walking toward the pavilion from the opposite side of the secluded path.
Among them were Liu Liguang and Liu Lanxin.
Three other middle-aged men and an old man with white hair, who looked somewhat like Liu Buyi, were also present.
“Why is he here…” Seeing the elder, Liu Buyi’s brows gradually tightened.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Liu asked, puzzled.
“Nothing, there might be some trouble later, just keep quiet,” Liu Buyi said seriously.
“Hmm, I’ll listen to what the old man says.” Although Xia Liu didn’t quite understand, nothing had happened yet, so he could only agree to Liu Buyi.
“Grandfather! Brother Xia Liu, you’re finally back, I’m almost starved to death.”
“You girl, we have so much food at home, you could have just eaten anything, but you insisted on waiting for us,” Liu Buyi said with a shake of his head and a kind smile.
“Hmph! We might have food now, but that might not be the case soon enough.” Just as Liu Lanxin was about to speak, the elderly man with a head of white hair suddenly interjected.
Hmm? Smells a bit like ammunition.
Hearing the elderly man’s words filled with sarcasm, Xia Liu began to speculate.
“Bu’an, is that any way to speak?” Liu Buyi said, visibly displeased.
“Big brother, is there a problem with what I said?” Liu Bu’an asked emotionlessly in response.
At that moment, Xia Liu glanced between Liu Bu’an and Liu Buyi, realizing they were brothers, which explained their resemblance.
Looking at this, it seems like the younger brother does not respect the elder.
“How can there be no problem? If you have any grievances, we can discuss them when we get back home. Don’t act so offensively in front of our guest,” Liu Buyi said, somewhat helplessly. If it weren’t for Xia Liu’s presence, he would definitely take this opportunity to properly scold his ignorant brother.
“Guest? Don’t tell me he’s a guest!” Liu Bu’an said angrily, facing Xia Liu.

As Liu Bu’an spoke those words, the expressions of the three middle-aged men also changed.
In the past, they might have respected Xia Liu, but now, representing their interests here, they mainly came to confront Xia Liu!
“Uncle Buyi, anyone can be a guest of the Liu Family, but not him!”
“Exactly! If it weren’t for him, our group’s stock price wouldn’t have plummeted so badly.”
The three middle-aged men stared at Xia Liu, their eyes reflecting unfriendliness and even anger.
If it hadn’t been for Xia Liu raising the cost price of the medicinal liquor without changing the selling price, Tianluo Pharmaceutical could have become famous in Huaxia within a few years.
Now, however, the sales price of the medicinal liquor had increased, and the company’s stock price had almost fallen to its lowest level.
What’s worse is that there were people in the streets with banners, wanting to protest against the company.
All these issues were caused by Xia Liu.
“Have your hearts been eaten by dogs? Who contributed to the group’s development to this prosperous state today? Who is our benefactor?” Liu Buyi yelled angrily.
“It was Xia Liu! His Beauty Mud made our group famous overnight! His medicinal liquor drove people crazy! His arrival gave us the opportunity to collaborate with the medical troops! It was all because of him!”
As Liu Buyi spoke, the three middle-aged men immediately fell silent, as indeed Tianluo Pharmaceutical had been lukewarm before Xia Liu’s involvement.
But with Xia Liu’s arrival, Tianluo Pharmaceutical had experienced a qualitative leap and faintly had a chance to break through Huaxia and go international.
Xia Liu’s face was filled with bitterness; he had not expected that his small actions would cause so much difficulty for Liu Buyi at home.
“And now? What has the group become now? People are protesting with banners, the stock market has plummeted, and I think it won’t be long before we’ll have to file for bankruptcy!”
Though Liu Buyi spoke true principles, Liu Bu’an couldn’t appreciate them, only aware that the group was now in crisis.
If the problem is not resolved soon, Tianluo Pharmaceutical could return to its previous state, or even worse.
“You can’t talk like that. Xia Liu came to our house today to help the group solve problems.”
“Big brother! Face the facts. Even if we revert to the original price, Tianluo Pharmaceutical will still be tarnished with a reputation for being money-grubbers,” Liu Bu’an solemnly said. “In the end, it’s you who have aged, it’s you who have misplaced your trust. Following a kid like him, you won’t even know how you died.”
“Bu’an, that’s enough! You can criticize me, but don’t speak ill of Xia Liu!” Liu Buyi was truly angry now.
“What’s wrong with speaking the truth about him? If he was really capable and really smart, he wouldn’t have made such a decision. Such a kid might as well be remade in a woman’s womb!”
Liu Bu’an looked disdainfully at Xia Liu; he did not think Xia Liu had any ability, beyond making medicinal liquor, he was clueless about everything else.
