Chapter 343 Rubio's Request for Help
After talking with Commander Wu, Lu Chen sat there in deep thought for a moment, thinking to himself: "It seems that my affairs have been settled. As for the Yun family, I can only wait for the results of Xu Wenqiang's investigation before making any plans."
However, thinking of this, Lu Chen suddenly realized an important problem - he had almost no power in the country. Even if he finally found out the truth, he seemed powerless in the face of the Yun family. This reality made Lu Chen feel extremely helpless and painful.
He murmured to himself, "I hope the Yun family is involved in export trade. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will have to take extreme measures to solve this problem." After saying that, he sighed deeply, with a heavy expression on his face.
Thinking of physically eliminating the Yun family, Lu Chen immediately became conflicted. He frowned and said to himself, "If I really do this, we will become mortal enemies. In this case, my eldest brother and sister-in-law might get divorced. I really don't want to affect their marriage because of my own affairs."
Lu Chen felt very helpless. He sighed and said, "Oh! This is really a difficult problem!"
Until he returned home, Lu Chen still hadn't figured out a way to have the best of both worlds. So, he decided not to dwell on this issue anymore, since he couldn't take any action at the moment. If it really didn't work out, he could wait until thirty-seven years later to deal with the Huaxia Yun family's affairs.
Lu Chen believed that the Yun family was so close to Japan now that they would most likely follow Japan's footsteps thirty-seven years later. By then, his eldest brother would probably break off completely with the Yun family. In this way, he would not have to worry too much and could let go to deal with the Yun family's problems.
Seeing Lu Chen coming back, Lu Jiaming briefly asked Lu Chen about the situation and then took Lu Chen to have dinner together.
The next morning, Lu Chen rushed back to the company to ask Lu Yunting about the progress of the matter. When he learned that the matter was still under discussion, Lu Chen did not stay in the Magic City for too long. After he told Lu Yunting about William's return to China, he led Hans and others to leave the Magic City and go to the United States.
By the time Lu Chen returned to the United States, it was already October.
As soon as Lu Chen got home, Rubio, who had received the news, came to his door.
"Boss, you are finally back."
Lu Chen looked at Rubio with confusion.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with you?"
Rubio said a little embarrassedly: "Boss, I have something I want to ask you for help."
Lu Chen replied: "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Um... Boss, I heard you can buy a drug called penicillin."
Isn't this nonsense? He produced the medicine, so of course he could buy it. So he said:
"I can buy this medicine. What's wrong? Do you need this medicine?"
Rubio nodded quickly and said, "My parents are sick, and the doctor said that only this medicine can cure them. I went to the hospital to inquire and found that this medicine is very scarce. Ordinary people can't buy this medicine. So I would like to ask you, boss, to help me buy this medicine."
Penicillin is very scarce, but not so scarce that you can't buy it even if you have money. Lu Chen didn't understand what the Douglas family was doing. The pharmaceutical factory he built with them had already started producing penicillin. This was a large pharmaceutical factory. It was impossible that it couldn't even meet the needs of the United States.
"It seems that I need to find some time to talk to the Douglas family and ask them what the hell they are doing."
Lu Chen muttered to himself, then looked at Rubio and said:
"How much penicillin do you need?"
Rubio said respectfully, "I need a box of twelve."
Lu Chen nodded slightly to show that he understood, and then said gently: "I understand, you go back first, I will have someone send it to you in two days."
Rubio burst into tears of gratitude and thanked Lu Chen repeatedly. He then carefully took out more than two hundred dollars from his pocket and handed it to Lu Chen respectfully.
"Boss, I asked around, this penicillin costs 20 dollars a tube, and here it's dollars."
Lu Chen waved his hand and refused without hesitation: "Take the money back, it's only two hundred dollars. I can still afford this little money."
After saying this, Lu Chen secretly complained in his heart.
"This Douglas family is so wicked! They clearly agreed to sell it to me at two dollars a stick, but now they have raised the price twenty times! It's really too much! I have to have a good talk with them. I can't let them make a fortune while I can only earn a little hard-earned money."
Then Lu Chen turned his gaze to Rubio. He saw him folding his hands on the table, leaning forward slightly, and asked with a firm and expectant look, "By the way, how is the recruitment I asked you to do? Have you recruited all the people now?"
Rubio quickly responded: "I have already recruited all the personnel."
Lu Chen then asked, "How is the quality? After all, this is a warship, there must be no mistakes!"
Rubio answered confidently, "Boss, don't worry. The people I recruited this time are all outstanding talents who have served in the army. Especially for key technical arms such as chief engineers, mechanics, first mates and helmsmen, I found my former comrades-in-arms. With my understanding and trust in them, I firmly believe that they will be able to complete the task of receiving the ship excellently." As he said this, Rubio made a solemn promise to Lu Chen with a serious face.
Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since you are so confident, let's just settle this matter. If there is nothing else, you can go back first. I have other important matters to deal with."
Rubio responded respectfully: "Okay, I'll leave first then." Then he turned around and left Lu Chen's villa.
