145: Come quick! The fifteenth floor is haunted!

Mirza Beg had already brought a group of executives and was waiting respectfully at the elevator entrance.

"Boss."

Mirza Beg bowed.

"Mhm."

David nodded and stepped into the elevator.

Top floor, the CEO's office.

Outside the massive floor-to-ceiling windows was a panoramic view of La Paz.

Mirza Beg personally brewed a cup of hot tea for David.

"Boss, everything with President Pedro has been settled."

"Exclusive rights for all industries—power, communications, water supply, and transportation—will be granted to us and the Wangshu Group in legal form."

Mirza Beg's tone was flat, as if he were reporting a trivial matter.

"Well done."

David took a sip of tea and gave a nonchalant comment.

This was all within his expectations.

A steady cash flow of billions of dollars every year was certainly enticing.

But this was far from enough.

He set down his teacup, looked at Mirza Beg, and said:

"Mirza, I plan to establish a new department."

"Yunhan Pharmaceuticals."

Mirza Beg froze for a moment, then quickly reacted.

"Boss, do you mean we are preparing to enter the biopharmaceutical field?"

"Exactly."

David's eyes were deep.

"The arms business is our Sharp Sword in the darkness, giving us the ability to protect ourselves and flip the table."

"Infrastructure monopolies are our purse, providing us with a steady stream of funds."

"But these things aren't presentable in polite society."

David stood up, walked to the window, and looked down at the city below.

"I need a business empire that can stand openly in the sunlight."

"An industry that can bring well-being to this country, and even the world."

He turned around and looked at Mirza Beg with burning eyes.

"Medicine is the best choice."

"It won't just bring unimaginable profits, but it will also win people's hearts and bring unparalleled prestige."

"In the future, if I want to sit in Pedro's position, this will be my greatest political capital."

Mirza Beg's heart skipped a beat.

Running for president!

The Boss's ambition was indeed far beyond being a mere puppet master behind the scenes!

He understood instantly.

Once you control healthcare, you control everyone's life, death, illness, and old age.

When that time comes, who would dare not support David?

This was more effective than pointing a gun at their heads!

"I understand, Boss!"

Mirza Beg's breathing became a bit rapid.

"I'll immediately look for suitable drug research labs and start acquiring several established pharmaceutical companies!"

"No need for all that trouble."

David waved his hand.

"I've already prepared the lab."

"Clear out the entire fifteenth floor of this building."

With that, David closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the system.

[great nation manufacturing system]

Host: David

[Points: 3.567 Billion (From Galaxy Electronics profit sharing)]

Looking at this string of numbers, the corners of David's mouth curled up slightly.

The feeling of having money was good.

He quickly browsed through the system mall.

[Epoch-making antibiotic "Terramycin" full formula and production process, Price: $50,000]

[Broad-spectrum targeted anti-cancer drug "Grafenib" full formula and production process, Price: $100,000]

[Specialized painkiller "Shutanning", non-addictive, three times more effective than morphine, Price: $80,000]

Rows of drug names shimmering with golden light dazzled David.

Every one of these drugs was enough to spark a world-shaking revolution in the current medical field.

And their prices in the system mall were practically dirt cheap.

David Without hesitation, exchanged for ten of the most practical and fastest-acting drug formulas in one go.

From antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs to specialized medications for cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, they had everything.

The total cost was less than $800,000.

Just pocket change.

Then, he began recruiting experts from the system's talent pool.

[Biopharmaceutical Experts (Elite Level), 30 people, bundle price: 1,000,000 points/month]

[Cutting-edge biopharmaceutical research equipment (Full Set), including molecular colliders, gene sequencers... bundle price: 1,000,000 points]

"Exchange!"

David didn't feel a hint of regret.

Only when money is spent can it turn into even greater power.

The next second.

Mirza Beg's phone rang.

It was the property manager calling.

"CEO... come quick! The fifteenth floor is haunted!"

"What nonsense!"

Mirza Beg frowned.

"It's true! Our people just went up to clear the floor."

"It was completely empty, but in the blink of an eye, the entire floor turned into a high-tech laboratory!"

Mirza Beg hung up the phone and looked at David with shock and suspicion.

David just gave a faint smile.

"Let's go take a look at our new research lab."

"And while we're at it, meet our chief scientist."

The moment Mirza Beg pushed open the fire door on the fifteenth floor, he was completely stunned.

The originally empty floor had now completely transformed.

Rows of precision instruments shimmering with a metallic luster were neatly arranged.

Many conceptual devices he had only seen in top scientific journals were now standing right before his eyes.

Dozens of researchers in white coats and with rigorous temperaments were methodically debugging the equipment.

The smell of disinfectant permeated the air.

All of this was filled with a surreal sense of science fiction.

A middle-aged man with a goatee, looking to be in his fifties, walked over quickly.

Seeing David, he bowed respectfully.

"Boss, Ibrahim reporting for duty."

All equipment has undergone preliminary debugging and is ready for work at any time.

David nodded and handed him a USB flash drive.

"Ibrahim, inside this are the formulas and process flows for ten new drugs."

"I require finished products within a month."

Ibrahim took the drive and plugged it into a computer.

When he saw the molecular formulas and technical paths displayed on the screen, his entire body froze.

His hands began to tremble.

"God... this is a miracle!"

"My Lord! This structure... this target design... this is technology that has leaped at least two eras ahead!"

He jerked his head up and looked at David as if looking at a true deity.

"Boss! Please rest assured!"

"Forget a month, give me half a month! I guarantee I can perfectly replicate the first batch of samples!"

Ibrahim's face flushed red with excitement.

As a scientist, being able to personally turn such epoch-making technology into reality was the honor of a lifetime!

David was very satisfied with his reaction.

He turned to look at Mirza Beg, who was still in shock, and his tone instantly became cold.

"Mirza."

"Yes, Boss!"

Mirza Beg shuddered and immediately snapped back to reality.

"From now on, this floor is classified at the highest level of secrecy."

"Mobilize the most reliable Death Sworn from Aiwa Security Company."

"Twenty-four-hour surveillance with no blind spots."

"Anyone who tries to steal data, whether they are internal employees or external spies..."

David looked at the fanatical scientist Ibrahim.

He glanced again at Mirza Beg, who was dazed with shock, and felt reasonably satisfied with this makeshift team.

He instructed: "In one month, I want to see finished products."

Having said that, he turned to leave the laboratory, which was filled with the scents of science fiction and money.

Mirza Beg quickly took two steps to follow and asked respectfully:

"Boss, then... about the acquisition of the pharmaceutical companies..."
