105: Chapter 105 The Effects of the Potion, A Swarm of People Entered
Under Jiang Chen's strong insistence, Jiang Xiaoran not only booked life no. 1 for her dad but also for her mom, grandparents, and herself.
"Uncle, I will definitely pay you back this 150,000 after I graduate."
Jiang Xiaoran promised Jiang Chen solemnly.
Jiang Chen smiled: "Study hard. If you want to come to Zhujiang City in the future, you can look for me. I'll take you fishing on the sea."
Jiang Xiaoran: "Okay! I'm going to class now, Uncle."
"Go ahead."
Jiang Chen put down his phone.
Xue Yao had already leaned over.
Taking advantage of the gap while Jiang Chen was typing, she pecked at his arm, which had been tanned to a bronze color by years of fishing at sea: "Jiang Xiaoran? Little niece?"
Jiang Chen nodded: "Yes, she's my cousin's daughter. I grew up in their house when I was a child."
"According to the seniority, wouldn't she call me Aunt?"
Thinking of this, Xue Yao suddenly fell into deep thought.
What is going on?
I just graduated from university.
I'm still at the age of a flower.
How did I suddenly become an aunt?
This seniority sounds really high!
"Haha, that's right."
Jiang Chen laughed.
"Wuwuwu, I don't want to be an aunt. I want to be an invincible beautiful girl and go out to sea with you to have fun!"
Xue Yao rubbed her head against Jiang Chen's chest like a kitten.
"Go to sea?"
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.
He had said before that he would take her to sea after she graduated.
Now, not only did he have the strength to protect her, but the small fishing boat had also undergone multiple upgrades and possessed enormous defensive and offensive capabilities.
If it were truly dangerous, he could activate the water-walking mode and slip away.
"When I finish my work during this period, I will find time to take you out to sea."
"How about it?"
Jiang Chen promised.
Now, at Longke Academy, life no. 1 and the N+ Gene were on the right track.
The only thing missing was the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device, which hadn't yet given birth to Controlled Nuclear Fusion.
If he could get Controlled Nuclear Fusion working, he would be mostly done and could go out to sea again.
"Really!"
"Ha!"
"That's just great."
"Actually, I've already prepared everything for going to sea."
Xue Yao said excitedly, pulling a large backpack out of the bedroom. She showed off the items one by one like a treasure trove: melon seeds, drinks, snacks, condoms, sunscreen, sunglasses, bikinis, sailor suits, gymnastics uniforms, and a whole bunch of other things.
Jiang Chen picked up one of the oversized boxes. Seeing that it said 100 pieces on it, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
"Honey, is this amount a little... too much?"
Going to sea for a month is only thirty days!
That means consuming 3 pieces a day!
The whales in the sea would be scared to tears if they knew.
"Just in case!"
"Who knows if you'll suddenly have increased interest while at sea!"
Xue Yao looked as if she was preparing for the worst.
"..."
Jiang Chen.
Impossible!
That won't happen!
Definitely not!
...
On the first day of the launch of life no. 1, there were less than 300,000 reservations.
A considerable portion of these were applications from the families of researchers at Longke Academy.
As for others, they basically didn't believe that this thing was really effective.
The second day: a cumulative total of 600,000 applications.
The third day: a cumulative total of 870,000 applications.
In other words, within three days, it did not reach one million reservations.
Therefore, the price was temporarily set at 30,000.
"Brothers, whoever has used it, can you go online and share, let's see if it's really effective."
On the internet, many people hadn't bought it, but they had been paying attention to the matter.
If it were really effective, let alone 30,000, even if it meant bankruptcy, they would still buy a bottle.
After all, living a long life is almost the instinctual pursuit of all living things.
Meanwhile, an eighty-something-year-old white man wearing glasses had just come out of a pharmacy under Tianshen Group.
He was holding a bottle of life no. 1 in his hand.
His name was Kaff. He had made significant contributions to gene pharmacology and was a recipient of the Nobel Prize in Biology ten years ago.
Now, it was his tenth year living in the Dragon Kingdom.
As someone with a Dragon Kingdom green card, he had successfully reserved a bottle of life no. 1.
However, his main purpose wasn't to drink it, but to study it.
In recent years, he had been in retirement and hadn't done much research.
But this bottle of life no. 1 launched by Longke Academy had aroused his keen interest.
"Is the research at Longke Academy progressing so rapidly?"
Kaff brought the life no. 1 back to his laboratory.
Although the laboratory wasn't big, it had everything it needed. He took out a hamster to perform a test.
Half a day later, he looked at the hamster, whose immune system had been destroyed and was already half-dead. The vital signs in its body were actually recovering slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"How is this possible!"
Kaff looked at the test indicators displayed on the computer, completely stunned.
It was like a miracle water, causing the hamster, whose immune system had been severely damaged, to actually recover.
Moreover, its brain activity and limb responses seemed to be much stronger than before.
"It seems this thing is really useful!"
"This is definitely epoch-making!"
In his excitement, Kaff quickly sent a message to his friends and family far away in Western Europe.
"Oh! My friends, I have discovered a great discovery in the Dragon Kingdom that is comparable to God!"
"Oh! My God, it's simply incredible!"
"My friends, do you want to live a long life like God!"
"Come to the Dragon Kingdom!"
"Hurry up and apply!"
"A major immigration trend towards the Dragon Kingdom might be about to emerge!"
"It will be too late if you wait!"
Kaff's influence in the Western world was not small.
Following his comments in his small circle, many scientists became interested and inquired about the situation.
At first, when they learned it was news about life no. 1, they didn't believe it.
Plus, only people with Dragon Kingdom green cards could reserve it, so almost no one in the West believed it.
However!
As some of Kaff's papers began to circulate in scientific circles, a large number of scientists began to pay attention.
Nykys, the largest pharmaceutical group in Western Europe, sent a reservation application to the Dragon Kingdom authorities.
After being rejected, they began to mobilize scalpers in the Dragon Kingdom, wanting to reserve life no. 1 as Dragon Kingdom citizens and then resell it abroad.
At first, the resale price was only 50,000 per bottle.
As the scalpers realized something was wrong, the price immediately skyrocketed to 100,000.
Almost every hour, the price went up.
200,000.
500,000.
It wasn't until the news spread that a bottle of life no. 1 worth one million was seized by customs during the resale process that netizens began to realize something was wrong.
"What's the situation, one million a bottle? Reselling abroad?"
"Holy crap, this thing wouldn't actually be useful, would it!"
"Forget it, I'm planning to apply!"
"It's really useful. I have a relative who was weak for years, but after drinking it, he's full of vitality. It's simply a miracle!"
With the news of the reselling and more and more netizens who had taken the potion testifying, the public finally realized the benefits of this potion.
A large number of people began to swarm into Tianshen Group.
"Damn! The official website of Tianshen Group has been crashed!"
