Chapter 253 - The Most Pathetic Kidnapper (2/2)
”Not bad!”
Luo Jin answered cautiously, but then he heard Luo Chengming saying, ”My family is very well connected in the pharmaceutical industry. I promise you'll earn a large profit, as long as you can provide the formula and cooperate with us. You'll money will flow.”
Luo Jin was calling his son stupid in his mind. Qin Haodong already said that he had cooperated with the Lin Group. What was the use in bringing it up? He knew Qin Haodong must be implying something by saying that.
”Since the Luos are so powerful in the pharmaceutical industry. My quest shall be easy for you.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said to Luo Jin, ”Mr. Luo, you know how hard it is now to get the pills approved. The Lin Group has roots in the jewelry industry and only a few connections in the pharmaceutical industry. If you can help me get the approval letter for the oral liquid in five days, all that you owe me will be canceled totally. I'll just forget about it.”
”That... that's impossible.” It looked like Luo Jin was in a pickle. He continued, ”Mr. Qin, you know, the medicine has to go through the department of the city, of the province, and of the state before it's finally approved. How about you give me three months? I'll get it done for you.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, ”Three months is too long. Your son just said you can nail it in five days, given your connections in the industry.”
Luo Jin glared at Luo Chengming and said, ”Mr. Qin. That's too hard for us. Five days is too short a time. How about one month? That's the best we can do.”
Qin Haodong said with a light smile, ”Five days, period. Get it done in five days and your son will be immune to the ten years in jail; and if not, I'll ask someone else to help, then you'll son would have to spend a few years in jail.”
”This…”
Luo Jin's was bruised and swollen. He had been working in the pharmaceutical industry for long enough to know its every detail. They could get the approval within five days, but that would come with a big price.
However, given what had happened, his son would end up in jail if he didn't agree. Ten years' jail time would make him rubbish, and then there would be no way for him to take charge of the Luo Group.
The Luo Group's financial resources allowed them to deal with that in crooked ways, if someone else was on that case; however, now Nalan Wuxia was following up the case, and her family was too powerful for him to take advantage of.
Seeing Luo Jin remaining silent, Qin Haodong smiled and said, ”Just forget it if you feel it's too hard.”
He turned back and said to Nalan Wuxia, ”If they can't figure any way out, then call the police and get him arrested.”
”OK, I'll do it right now.”
Nalan Wuxia said as she took out her phone and was going to call the crime squad on shift.
Luo Chengming couldn't live with the fear anymore. He grabbed Luo Jin's arm and said, ”Dad, you have to save me. I don't want to go to jail.”
Luo Jin realized that it was the best solution. He then said to Nalan Wuxia, ”Captain Nalan, I agree.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, ”Mr. Luo, don't push yourself too much if this is too hard for you.”
”No, no at all!” Luo Jin grounded his teeth and said, ”I promise I'll get the approval for the Blood Revival Oral Liquid within five days!”
Qin Haodong said, ”Well then. Let's specify the deal and sign an agreement. If you fail to comply five days later, I'll do what I have to do.”
They were in Luo Jin's study, so there were enough pens and paper. Qin Haodong made himself at home. He grabbed paper and pen, and then wrote down an agreement by himself.
”Mr. Luo, please sign this.”
Qin Haodong said as he threw one of the two copies of the agreement to Luo Jin.
Luo Jin took it and checked. He found it to be more of a confession from Luo Chengming rather than an agreement. It clearly described how they kidnapped Qin Haodong and Nalan Wuxia, and how they tried to rob the formula of Blood Revival Oral Liquid. If the agreement stood, Luo Chengming would definitely end up in jail if he failed to get the approval of the oral liquid.
But after all they had agreed with, he had to sign it right then and there. He forced himself to sign, so did Luo Chengming. Qin Haodong then found the ink pad and let the two press their fingerprints on it.
”Okay, nice working with you! Mr. Luo, I will have the approval materials delivered to you tomorrow. I am looking forward to hearing your good news.”
Qin Haodong said as he took over his copy. Then he held Nalan Wuxia's slender waist, and both left the Luo's Villa happily.
Seeing the two out, Luo Jin became furious immediately. He yelled at Luo Mingcheng, ”Have you lost your mind? How dare you kidnap Nalan Wuxia? Are you trying to ruin your family?”
Luo Chengming replied fearfully, ”I... I heard Qin Haodong was with a woman, but I didn't know she was a lady from the Nalans. I would never do that if I had been aware of it.”
”You know nothing. I sent you to negotiate, and you offered one million for their formula which is worth billions. Were you try to take them as fools?
”And then you were kidnapping? That's your hostage? You've invited a demon in! Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a drug approval within five days? Do you know how much it will cost?”
Although Luo Chengming felt wronged, he felt guilty as well.
After all the swearing, Luo Jin took a deep breath and said, ”I'll go for the approval tomorrow by myself. You stay at home and behave yourself. Don't go out and make any other mess ever again. Stop thinking about how to get back on the guy. He has the evidence of our crime now. He can send you to jail by lifting just one finger.
”With the Nalan's watching, we won't be able to muddle through it even if we want to.”
Luo Chengming looked like he still couldn't get over with it. He said, ”Dad, are you going to just let it pass?”
Cold light flashed in Luo Jin's eyes. He said coldly, ”Nobody can mess with the Luos without paying the price. But for the sake of the whole picture, we'll have to put this aside and overcome the difficulty coming our way.”
