Chapter 139: 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.

Peter Brown sighed, it turns out that the medicine he made actually had a weight-loss effect. Perhaps the weight loss effect is the reason everyone found out about it.

Reuben Taylor also laughed and said, "To tell the truth, if it wasn’t because of the weight loss effect, who could have known the potency of that medicine? Those individuals who re-examined, their ’three highs’ had disappeared and they had fully recovered. When the news got out, a woman in the county gave her mother the pill, the same results occurred. Her mother’s ’three highs’ significantly reduced, and now she’s become much younger and in shape."

Upon saying this, he looked towards Peter Brown and said, "Peter, you are not aware, but your pills are now something money cannot buy!"

Daniel Pangbourne laughed and said, "When I was making phone calls earlier today to ask for a few cars, as the news spread, everyone showed up."

The people at each table, hearing Daniel Pangbourne’s sarcastic comment, didn’t show any signs of displeasure or awkwardness and turned their attention to Peter Brown.

Peter Brown looked at the young man and asked, "You don’t have the ’three highs’, do you?"

"This young man’s name is Hudson Cox. He owns a company. His father is the head of the county’s mobile company."

Peter Brown’s eyes lit up, "I want to pay to build a communication tower in Green Water Village to improve communication. Do you have any idea how to proceed with this?"

Hudson Cox laughed and said, "That’s not a big deal, Mr. Wang, don’t worry, I’ll take care of it."

Daniel Pangbourne chuckled and said, "Peter, you didn’t come here to take care of business, did you?"

"Actually, I did come here to take care of business. Green Water Village has no electricity and no communication. These two things are inhibiting its development, and I wanted to see how I can address them."

A middle-aged chubby man then said, "Mr. Wang, we can help with the power issue."

Reuben Taylor laughed and said, "Peter, he is the deputy head of the county power company, Julian Richardson. He’s the right man."

It was then that Peter Brown realized he was in the company of some very influential people. He was busy saying, "Julian, I’m counting on you for this!"

With a laugh, Julian Richardson said, "I’m honored to be friends with Mr. Wang, don’t worry. The county has a policy for rural electrification. It’s just a matter of when we’ll get to it. Don’t worry, I’ll arrange it, and we will send someone to take care of it tomorrow."

Julian Richardson was a straightforward man and immediately made clear his stand.

Peter Brown was delighted. He hadn’t expected to solve both of his concerns with such little effort.

Thinking about how everyone had come a long way, Peter Brown smiled and spoke, "To express gratitude for all your help with my old friend’s issues, I happened to bring some medicine with me. Unfortunately, they are not packed. I can gift two pills each to everyone. I appreciate it if you could show up at dinner time. Thank you from Peter Brown."

While speaking, he retrieved a backpack he purposely carried on him and picked out a large number of medicines wrapped in newspaper.

Actually, he was ostensibly taking it out of the bag, but in reality, he was retrieving it from within his ring; it just appeared otherwise.

"Darn it, Peter! You’re so casual with items that valuable!"

Reuben Taylor was unable to maintain his calm demeanor.

"It’s okay; I just didn’t have anything to put them in, so I had to place them casually. I apologize. Today, friends who have arrived, two pills each."

As he spoke, Peter Brown went to each table to distribute the medicine, saying his words of gratitude each time he handed out the two pills.

Once he finished distributing the pills and sat back down, Daniel Pangbourne asked, "Peter, do you know how valuable that medicine is?."

Peter Brown simply smiled and said, "As long as everyone is happy, that’s good."

Charles Carter sighed, "Peter, you are really squandering your fortune! Do you know, the liquor you sell now is worth about one hundred thousand a cup. Considering the effect of your pills, not to mention one hundred thousand, even if they were sold for two hundred thousand, there would still be people scrambling for them. You just handed out two per person; that’s four to five hundred thousand per person! There are over a hundred people here!"

Peter Brown simply smiled and said, "Making so many friends with two pills, it’s a good deal!"

Hearing Peter say this, everyone gave him a thumbs up, admiring him for being such a loyal friend.

Reuben Taylor looked at Peter Brown and asked, "Peter, what’s your relationship with this friend of yours that you’re going to so much trouble for?"

Feeling everyone’s eyes on him, Peter Brown earnestly said, "Back in high school, my family was very poor. When I was studying in town, there were times when my family couldn’t get the money to me in time for meals. I couldn’t even afford meal tickets. Of all my classmates, Chase White lent me money multiple times, especially right before I went to prison, he loaned me 100 dollars which I never had a chance to pay back. I have always held these things in my heart. Compared to what I’m doing now, what Chase White did for me back then makes me feel even more grateful.

So that’s what happened!

Reuben Taylor murmured to himself, "This is the return on a 100 dollar investment."
