Chapter 524: Chapter 482: Are You Silent Because You Know You’re in the Wrong?

"The one who provided the medicine formula was still Jiang Zhe." Assistant Xu had just learned the news not long ago, had specifically found out it related to Jiang Zhe, and hastened to come and report.

Assistant Xu handed over the detailed information.

Zhuo Jinman flipped through it, her brows furrowing intensely.

Meanwhile, many pharmacies were strongly condemning Jiang Zhe, even going as far as buying trending searches to accuse her of profiting from medicine sales at a time like this.

Because in the past few days, the medicine introduced by Jiang Zhe had sold both quickly and well.

When people bought medicine from her, they naturally wouldn’t just buy one or two types, but would also purchase other common medications, leading to a significant impact on the business of other pharmacies.

These pharmacies had always been held in high esteem on Beicheng Continent, accustomed to their year-long business model. Suddenly, several other pharmacies emerged out of nowhere and stole their business, which naturally caused displeasure among the owners.

Several owners came together and realized that Jiang Zhe was the problem; they also found out that her medicine came from abroad.

Wasn’t this cutting off their source of income?

The Jiang Family was now a declining family, yet still daring to encroach on their turf, it naturally made them unhappy.

Since that was the case, it’s no wonder they weren’t being polite.

And so, trending searches dropped out of nowhere, and bought comments soared.

Photos were also included, with one being Jiang Zhe helping out at the pharmacy’s entrance.

And even one of her helping to treat someone’s illness.

"The medicine we used before was provided by Dr. Zhuo’s formula, which was very effective. It started over twenty years ago and has never changed until now. Jiang Zhe has just arrived, and she’s just profiting through such means!"

"Exactly, the products she brought are inferior, and they come from other places. How can she do this?"

"This is a matter of life and death; can we let her spout nonsense at will? I advise those who go after cheap medicine to weigh it carefully. This isn’t just some regular item! Mixing this up could cost lives!"

"Doesn’t Jiang Zhe have even a little conscience? How can she dare to sell and use these products carelessly?"

"We admit that Jiang Xi was indeed very impressive back in the day, but Jiang Xi is Jiang Xi, Jiang Zhe is Jiang Zhe. These medicines can’t just be used recklessly, can they?"

"I heard that Jiang Zhe has already dropped out of school, so now she’s essentially a high school dropout. Can she sell medicine and treat illnesses?"

"Didn’t she perform surgery on a lone wolf before?"

"That was in a desperate situation. Besides, can the injuries of a lone wolf compare to the current situation?"

These pharmacies were the old, established signage of Beicheng Continent, naturally displeased at having their business snatched.

So without any verification, they directly accused Jiang Zhe on trending searches.

After all, the Jiang Family affairs had been on trending searches several times before, receiving criticism was always directed at the Jiang Family and Jiang Zhe. This time, they also intended to use this to their advantage to drive Jiang Zhe away.

In the trending searches, righteous passersby commented that Jiang Zhe’s medicine was effective and not overpriced, but these were drowned out by a torrent of paid comments, making them hard to see.

As a result, many who were unaware of the truth also joined in the criticism of Jiang Zhe and the Jiang Family, bringing up previous trending search contents related to the Jiang Family.

Zhuo Jinman, seeing all this, felt rather overwhelmed.

Jiang Zhe, on the other hand, didn’t care too much about these opinions.

She was more interested to see how the people behind this would end up.

The elderly Mrs. Jiang, however, was somewhat worried.

The butler tried to reassure her, "I see the young miss can cure diseases, so the medicine must be fine. Madam, don’t you think that Xiaozhe is better at handling these matters than the young miss of those years?"

"I just fear that she’s too young and impetuous and, like Jiang Xi, attracts too much attention," Mrs. Jiang shook her head and said.

"That won’t happen..." The butler had just finished speaking when he heard a servant come in and exclaim, "Not good, madam!"

Pointing outside, the servant said, "There are a lot of reporters outside, saying they want a statement from Xiaozhe..."

The old Mrs. Jiang knew it was those large pharmacies behind this as soon as she heard.

Backed by the four major families, these people always acted arrogantly; they did business their own way, rarely offended by others, while everyone else conducted their business with their tails between their legs.

This time, Jiang Zhe’s high-profile move indeed annoyed them.

Although these businesses were not enough to cause them much harm, the fact that Jiang Zhe dared to do it made them fear that others might follow suit, so they felt they had to suppress Jiang Zhe decisively to set an example.

The journalists and media there today were invited by these people, deliberately creating trouble for Jiang Zhe in an attempt to define the incident from that year with Jiang Family and ultimately pressure the family out of business.

It was also a warning to others who were thinking of snatching the business to take Jiang Zhe as a cautionary tale.

A large group of journalists and media blocked the Jiang Family’s gate, which naturally compelled the servants to report the situation.

The old Mrs. Jiang said, "What, are they just journalists? Can they really turn the sky upside down? I will go out and see!"

The butler accompanied her outside.

"Grandma," said Jiang Zhe as he walked down the stairs, "I’ll go."

"Xiaozhe..."

Jiang Zhe slightly curved his lips, "Didn’t you also say, they’re just journalists?"

The old Mrs. Jiang revealed a smile, "Good, let’s go out together!"

Jiang Zhe and the old Mrs. Jiang went out together.

The reporters originally did not expect to see them come out in person to respond and were startled when they actually did, causing a stir.

Immediately, a journalist sharply asked, "Old Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Zhe, rumor has it that it was your family who created the flu virus back then, and now it’s your family selling medications indiscriminately. Isn’t this a bit too irresponsible for us?"

"Isn’t this too childish? How can you act like this?"

"Do you have anything to explain?"

"We heard the medications were even shipped from outside. Isn’t that too unreasonable?"

"Basically, can’t you be more cautious regarding matters of life and health?"

The journalists fired off questions consecutively.

Meanwhile, more people were broadcasting live.

Countless viewers were watching the live stream.

Zhuo Jinman was verifying the efficacy of Jiang Zhe’s medication and had no energy to pay attention to this.

The report brought by Assistant Xu suggested that the medication was effective, but she did not agree.

After all, she had been the expert in this field for years, how could some cheap medicines Jiang Zhe offered be so effective?

Fang Jun was inevitably watching the live broadcast too.

The entire fiasco with Jiang Zhe dropping out had already caused a stir, and even caused her a hidden loss.

She did indeed want to see what Jiang Zhe could do in the face of so much opposition.

Beicheng Continent was not an easy place to thrive.

Just Jiang Zhe?

Fang Jun secretly sneered.

The journalists kept asking questions, while Jiang Zhe watched them silently.

It wasn’t until the journalists realized that Jiang Zhe had not been responding that they continued, "Jiang Zhe, are you silent because you have a guilty conscience?"
