Chapter 139: The Return of 100 Yuan
The plan was to get the bridal escorting done early in the morning, but due to car issues, the newlyweds weren’t brought to Chase White’s place until two o’clock. This made the schedule tight, but luckily with the wedding planning company handling things, everything unfolded orderly.
As the groom and bride went to change, the bosses and CEOs who had driven them were ushered into Charles Carter’s restaurant.
The place held ten tables of people. Peter Brown was somewhat surprised, but he was also very grateful. He greeted the crowd saying, "I’m very thankful to you all for your help."
Daniel Pangbourne laughed heartily and said, "Peter, don’t be too respectful to them, they’ll start asking for favors."
Everyone laughed heartily, one middle-aged man chimed in, "Pangbourne is right. If you give them respect, they won’t turn down a good deal. CEO Wang, we are not expecting anything for free; we are all chipping in here."
Even though it was all in jest, Peter Brown realized that these people were hinting that they wanted him to cut them in on some spoils.
"Peter, you don’t know. Last time, didn’t you give each person in Green Water Village a medicine pill? Guess what happened," someone said, before Peter could respond,
Reuben Taylor laughed and said, "At the time, some people really didn’t care about that pill. I heard a few people even discarded their pills in secret. Peter, the appearance of your pills is rather lacking. If they looked more refined, the people probably wouldn’t have thrown them away. What a waste!"
Peter Brown also couldn’t help but laugh. Those medicine pills really weren’t valuable. They were just ordinary herbs combined with ’Lingcao.’ He had made them when he was still testing out his skills. They were nothing compared to the Elixirs he was now able to produce. He still had a bunch of those rough looking pills in his ring. He was thinking he could give some to these guys as they seemed quite interested.
Hearing the story, a young man laughed and said, "Ignorance isn’t bliss, is it? Everyone at the time didn’t know the situation, so they brushed it aside. But a few individuals who were diagnosed with the ’three highs’ decided to take the medicine out of curiosity. No one expected them to drastically change afterwards. They were suddenly very spirited and their weight dropped significantly. People who previously weighed over 200 pounds now only weigh about 70. Their figure, so ideal!"
With that, he shook his head.
