chapter 24 Salary and dividends increased fivefold!

"My second uncle, who is also the director of this pharmaceutical factory, it was you who pushed him off the roof a year ago, right?" Ferrid Chu walked slowly in front of Caspian Chen, and the murderous intent in his clear eyes grew stronger. "That... that was what our family head told me to do! Since the factory belongs to our Chen family, the director from the Chu family naturally couldn't stay!" Caspian Chen explained in a panic. "Yes, it was all our family head's orders, we had no choice!" Neptune Chen quickly added, glancing nervously at the door. He was sweating profusely because there were over a dozen bodies lying in the corridor, all of them were their bodyguards! "Heh." Ferrid Chu let out a cold laugh and waved his hand. The woman in red immediately understood and, with a swift motion, her Tang sword rose and fell, cutting off Neptune Chen's head. Then, with another horizontal strike, she sliced his head in half. "Ah!" Seeing his own younger brother die so tragically, Caspian Chen trembled with heartache. He grabbed wildly with his hands, but he didn't dare to resist. After all, he had heard about Ferrid Chu killing three hundred assassins of the Hong Gang. "Brother Chu, Grandpa Chu, please don't kill me. I'm just an in-law of the Chen family, I'm just a dog. In my safe, there's a Grade Two Meridian Opening Pill worth a billion. This was originally a gift from Chen Tianan to the main branch of the Chen family in Spirit Realm, temporarily stored with me. I'll give it to you, would that be enough for sparing my life?" Caspian Chen knelt down with a thud, bowing his head to Ferrid Chu. "For killing your second uncle back then, I deserve to die a thousand times. I beg Grandpa Chu for forgiveness!" "Tell these words to my second uncle yourself," Ferrid Chu pressed down on Caspian Chen's head, slamming it into the ground with force. "Bang!" Caspian Chen's head shattered the floor tiles, creating a web-like pattern. His head also turned into a pool of blood! Caspian Chen's body remained in a kneeling posture, frozen stiff in place. His head seemed to have sunk into the ground, disappearing from sight. Ferrid Chu walked to the safe, delivered a powerful punch to it, and retrieved a box containing the pills. He promptly threw it to the woman in red. "Eat it!" "Thank you, Master!" The woman in red wanted to say 'Thank you, Master Chief,' but with Audrey Sun and the others present, she changed her wording. "Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" As soon as the woman in red took the Grade Two Meridian Opening Pill, Ferrid Chu shot three Dragon needles into three different acupuncture points on her body. "The Meridian Opening Pill will make the flow of your meridians smoother and more powerful when circulating your spiritual energy. Now, circulate your spiritual energy according to the acupuncture points I've needled, and you'll be able to break through!" Ferrid Chu stated calmly. The woman in red quickly followed his instructions. In just a dozen breaths, her body erupted, directly entering the Second Stage of the Qi Condensing Realm! Ferrid Chu approached Audrey Sun and inserted several Dragon needles into different acupuncture points on her body, neutralizing the effects of the medicine. Then he said, "If I remember correctly, you're Audrey Sun, the deputy manager of our Chu family's pharmaceutical factory, right?" "Young Master Chu, you're alive after all!" Audrey Sun, upon seeing Ferrid Chu, felt an inexplicable sense of unreality. "Yes, many media outlets reported me dead!" Ferrid Chu self-mockingly said. He stood up and revived the two female workers. Only then did he turn to Audrey Sun and say, "Starting today, this pharmaceutical factory is back in the hands of our Chu family. I don't know if you're willing to be the manager of this factory. As for salary and year-end bonuses, they will be five times the original amount." "I'm willing! It's not about the money. I, Audrey Sun, am willing to come back!" Audrey Sun said excitedly. "Thank you for supporting the Chu family!" Ferrid Chu said sincerely. He turned to the two female workers and said, "If you want to stay, you'll both be workshop supervisors. The salary will also be five times the original amount. Are you willing?" "Of course, we're willing! We'll work hard!" the two female workers said gratefully. After taking over the factory, Ferrid Chu called Clara Bai and asked her to handle the paperwork for the new ownership. Then, he left the woman in red at the factory to deal with the bodies. He called Chu Bai and asked him to take over the factory, while he headed straight for the Dragon Cloud Business School. He intended to return the Purple Phoenix Jade Bracelet to Hazel Tang. "Hmm?" Ferrid Chu hailed a taxi, but the driver didn't take him to the Dragon Cloud Business School. Instead, they arrived at a remote location. "What does this mean?" Ferrid Chu looked at the driver coldly. "What does this mean? You took our Dragon's Roar, now hand it over!" The taxi driver was actually the strategist of the Tiger Roar Villa, disguised as Tyrone Sun. He brandished a triangular dagger and thrust it towards Ferrid Chu's throat! "Bang!" The blood-coloured Dragon's Roar suddenly appeared in front of Ferrid Chu's neck, firmly blocking the dagger's swift strike. "So, the Dragon's Roar is really in your hands!" Tyrone Sun said in a low voice. "You're much stronger than that Tiger Roar Three Weaklings. You knew to check the pictures first and even disguised yourself as a taxi driver to lure me in." Ferrid Chu was calm, showing no signs of nervousness. "Those three wastes aren't worthy of comparing with me!" Tyrone Sun roared, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy entered the triangular dagger. Originally three inches long, the dagger, now enveloped in spiritual energy, solidified and suddenly grew an extra inch! Tyrone Sun pressed the pointed end down with force, and the sharp blade surged towards Ferrid Chu's heart! "You're only in the Qi Condensing Realm after all," Ferrid Chu said calmly. In the next moment, a powerful punch struck out. "Bang!" The next second, Tyrone Sun's body smashed through the front windshield, drawing an arc in the air before crashing heavily onto the ground. He clutched his chest tightly, and the triangular dagger was deeply embedded in his chest. Blood gushed out along the dagger like a fountain. "If you manage to survive and go back, consider yourself lucky. If not, it's just your time." Ferrid Chu approached, looking down at Tyrone Sun indifferently. "At your young age, you can easily defeat a Qi Condensing Realm expert like me. Your achievements are not small." Tyrone Sun's face turned ashen, struggling to speak due to a lack of breath. "I don't need you to validate my achievements." Ferrid Chu turned and left. "Ferrid Chu, you have no idea the power that emerges when the Dragon's Roar Sword and the Tiger's Roar Scabbard are combined. Such an unparalleled weapon will attract countless martial artists vying for it. Even if you have some accomplishments, you simply lack the ability to control it. It will only bring disaster upon you! These are words from the bottom of my heart. I'll be waiting for you in hell!" As Tyrone Sun finished speaking, he took his last breath. Ferrid Chu furrowed his brows slightly. Hearing Tyrone Sun's words, he became even more intrigued by the Tiger's Roar Scabbard. Ferrid Chu drove Tyrone Sun's taxi and headed straight for the Dragon Cloud Business School. Inside the Dragon Cloud Business School: "Why are you changing our dorm? We were perfectly fine here," Hazel Tang stood at the dormitory door, looking bewildered at the logistics director, Kairos Wu. She and her roommate, Maeve Lin, were originally staying in a double room and everything was fine. Today, they were informed they'd be moved to an old dormitory across the way, where ten people shared one room. Moreover, there were no students there, only the school's workers. Hazel Tang didn't have a problem with the workers, she just felt this was unfair! ..
