Chapter 389: Wishing to Become a Slave to His Wife
"People? Human ... placentas?" Chen Anna stuttered.
"Ugh." Wu Yingfan frowned, disgusted, "No wonder this medicine has a limited production each year. So, they’re using human placentas? Isn’t that illegal?"
"There are specialized collectors for placentas. If a woman doesn’t keep her placenta, it’s treated as medical waste, and there are people who collect it. Of course, there’s also a market for this, sort of a gray area. You tell me, is it illegal or not?"
Jiang Man paused, then continued, "According to the ’Medical Waste Management Regulations,’ any unit or individual that transfers or trades medical waste will be ordered to immediately cease the illegal activity by the local environmental protection authority at the county level or above. They’ll be given a warning, and the illegal earnings will be confiscated; if the illegal earnings exceed 5,000 yuan, a fine of 2 to 5 times the illegal earnings may be imposed; if there are no illegal earnings or they’re less than 5,000 yuan, then a fine of no less than 5,000 yuan but no more than 20,000 yuan will be levied."
"The laws exist but they’re not perfect, and the fines are too small," Jiang Man concluded.
Chen Anna blinked in shock, impressed that Jiang Man could recite the regulations off the top of her head.
"Of course, that’s the law on the mainland. I’ve read some legal texts here in the city, but not much."
"My God, Manman, your knowledge is so broad!" Chen Anna couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up.
Her focus was a bit skewed.
However, Hu Xianyun, who came over upon hearing the conversation, and his classmate caught the key point immediately.
