"Whoosh—"
With a faint, sharp whistle, the fruit knife Chen Xiao kicked out instantly embedded itself into Kang Wenxue's crotch like a bullet from a sniper rifle.
Even more terrifying was that, under the impact of the powerful force, Kang Wenxue slid several meters across the ground like a ball, leaving a trail of blood.
"This..."
Leng Shan felt a chill in his own crotch and instinctively retreated several steps, inwardly shocked:
"My God! This is too terrifying! Even I might not be able to do this. Is Chen Xiao's combat power even above mine? But... but he's only in his early twenties. Even if he started training in the womb, he shouldn't possess such terrifying internal energy cultivation!"
Before this, Leng Shan had always felt that his defeat by Chen Xiao was due to Chen Xiao's sneak attack. If he hadn't been controlled by the Five Poisons Demonic Needles, given his temper, he would have already sought out Chen Xiao for another fight.
But now, witnessing Chen Xiao kick the fruit knife and severely injure Kang Wenxue, he finally realized the vast difference between himself and Chen Xiao.
Amidst his shock, his gaze towards Chen Xiao became even more respectful, and his tone more humble:
"Dr. Chen, let me handle the dirty work. Besides, this kind of low-level trash doesn't even qualify for you to personally intervene."
Saying this, he made a move as if to bend down and drag Kang Wenxue away.
At this moment, Kang Wenxue was curled up on the ground, howling in pain, his hands tightly covering his bloody crotch, his face filled with agony.
Suddenly seeing Leng Shan reaching out to him, he knew his life was likely in danger, but at least it would end the torment he was currently enduring. He couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Leng Shan.
"Wait!"
Chen Xiao frowned and stopped Leng Shan:
"Mr. Kang hasn't signed the supply contract with me yet. Moreover, I've always believed that living in pain is far more torturous than dying painlessly!"
"I..."
Kang Wenxue was speechless, his face filled with despair.
He thought that just because he had set his sights on Chen Qing, Chen Xiao had ruthlessly severed his manhood. If Chen Xiao were to learn how bullying the supply contract with Lin Zhengyang was, the torment awaiting him would surely be even more brutal.
The more he thought about it, the more he feared, and he said with tears he couldn't shed:
"Boss Chen, the contract with Lin Zhengyang is truly unreasonable. Not only does it require you to use Jinfang Pharmaceutical as collateral, but the annual procurement volume must reach over twenty million yuan, and it even demands cash payment for every order. This is clearly an attempt to seize Jinfang Pharmaceutical. I advise you not to sign it..."
Chen Xiao impatiently interrupted Kang Wenxue:
"Are you telling me what to do? Stop the bullshit and read me the contract!"
"Okay... Okay."
Kang Wenxue's face was pale from the pain, and he was trembling all over. He truly wanted to close his eyes and sleep, but Chen Xiao's ruthlessness had completely shattered his courage. He didn't dare to hesitate and quickly took out his phone, opened the electronic version of the contract, and read it word for word.
"Heh heh."
After listening to the contract's contents once, Chen Xiao couldn't help but chuckle:
"Mr. Kang, your boss is not being fair. The entire contract is full of clauses that restrict me, but not a single word restricts him?"
He paused, and before the tearful Kang Wenxue could respond, Chen Xiao continued:
"Call him now and ask him, what compensation should he give me if my procurement volume becomes so large that he cannot supply it?"
A contract should bind both parties to the cooperation. Since Lin Zhengyang's clauses didn't bind him, Chen Xiao had to propose it himself.
"Okay... Okay... Okay, okay."
Kang Wenxue dared not hesitate for a moment and quickly fumbled to dial Lin Zhengyang's number.
At this moment, Lin Zhengyang was in the chairman's office of Jiuding Pharmaceutical, sipping tea with Ye Tiezhu. He never expected that Ye Tiezhu would agree to his decision to sign a supply contract with Jinfang Pharmaceutical without even thinking about it, and even proactively proposed the idea of Lin Meiqi marrying Ye Qingtian.
At this very moment, Lin Zhengyang felt like he had reached the pinnacle of his life, his mouth unable to stop smiling.
When he received Kang Wenxue's call, he was even more smug and directly put it on speakerphone:
"Xiao Kang, has Jinfang Pharmaceutical signed the supply contract? Well done!"
Thinking that his fate of becoming a eunuch was thanks to Lin Zhengyang, Kang Wenxue wished he could tear Lin Zhengyang apart and cursed fiercely:
"Lin, you big idiot, your contract terms are so domineering, so unreasonable, do you think Boss Chen would sign it? Damn it!"
Lin Zhengyang had always cared about his reputation, especially in front of Ye Tiezhu. His face instantly darkened, and he roared furiously:
"Kang Wenxue, are you crazy? How dare you speak to me like that?"
At this moment, Lin Zhengyang was not just angry, but more so fearful. After all, he had bragged to Ye Tiezhu that he would soon acquire Jinfang Pharmaceutical. If Chen Xiao didn't sign the contract, he would be in trouble.
Kang Wenxue completely ignored Lin Zhengyang's rage and continued to say fiercely:
"Boss Chen has already said that since he is using Jinfang Pharmaceutical as collateral, you should also use Zhengyang Chinese Herbal Medicine Wholesale Market as collateral. If his procurement volume exceeds your capacity, you must compensate with Zhengyang Chinese Herbal Medicine Wholesale Market..."
"Pfft—"
Before Kang Wenxue could finish speaking, Ye Tiezhu couldn't help but burst out laughing. He lowered his voice and said to Lin Zhengyang with a mocking expression:
"Brother Zhengyang, isn't the new owner of Jinfang Pharmaceutical a fool? With cash payment on delivery, can his procurement volume be larger than your Chinese herbal medicine inventory?"
Lin Zhengyang was also amused by Chen Xiao's request. For a moment, he even forgot to dwell on Kang Wenxue's attitude and eagerly said:
"Alright! No problem! I'll modify the contract and send it to you with the electronic contract stamp right away. Hurry up and have him sign it, or I'll take your life!"
Fearing that Chen Xiao would go back on his word, Lin Zhengyang immediately contacted his secretary after hanging up the phone.
Within minutes, Kang Wenxue's phone received the modified electronic contract.
Signing electronic contracts was very convenient, no printing was needed, only facial recognition.
After Chen Xiao personally reviewed the contract's contents, he quickly completed the signing process and said:
"Mr. Kang, the contract is now effective. Please arrange for the delivery as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he casually threw the procurement list he had previously written for Jin Yongping and Xia Qianqian onto Kang Wenxue.
Kang Wenxue was suffering from the pain and had been losing blood. His face was as pale as paper, and his mental state was becoming increasingly blurry. However, he still forced himself to quickly call Lin Zhengyang:
"Lin, you big idiot, I'm taking a photo of Boss Chen's procurement list and sending it to you now. Hurry up and arrange it!"
After saying this, he hung up the phone and sent the photo.
On the other end of the phone, Lin Zhengyang and Ye Tiezhu were no longer drinking tea but were playing golf surrounded by a dozen young girls.
When he received Kang Wenxue's call again, Lin Zhengyang's beaming smile instantly turned cold.
But then, upon seeing Chen Xiao's procurement list, he immediately burst into laughter. He quickly showed it to Ye Tiezhu, trying to take credit, and said with a laugh:
"Director Ye, Jinfang Pharmaceutical's procurement list has arrived. I did a rough calculation, and it's only about two hundred thousand yuan. Hahaha."
"Heh."
Ye Tiezhu chuckled and said:
"Quickly arrange for people to deliver the goods. The sooner the better, but the shipment volume must be increased to two million! If he can't even afford two million yuan worth of goods, Jinfang Pharmaceutical can change its name!"
