Chapter 363

"Anyway, I can\'t do it. Get rid of this idea."

Jiang Tao stood up and walked away. He had barely started eating and hadn\'t even picked up his chopsticks, but something told him he couldn\'t eat here anymore.

Over the next several days, his old friend kept pestering him.

Red Maple was developing rapidly. After just a few months, it had started becoming profitable. The down payments received in the second half of the year alone were enough to cover what Sister Zhang had spent on starting the factory.

Zhi Xia was formulating plans for the next step. The leaders she had cultivated so far, especially outstanding ones like Jiang Tao and the two others selected early on, could already hold their own.

Barring any accidents, she could hand management of this place entirely to Jiang Tao and go start a new factory.

Knock knock knock.

There was a knock at the door.

Without even lifting her head, Zhi Xia parted her red lips slightly. "Come in."

Jiang Tao came in carrying newly selected orders. "Boss, you\'re still working hard?"

"Mm," Zhi Xia nodded and temporarily set aside her work at hand.

After thinking it over left and right, Jiang Tao decided to tell Zhi Xia about the controller issue.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was off. His old friend\'s stubborn persistence made him feel this matter was not so simple. If he didn\'t cooperate, it was very possible the other party would look for someone else, so he had to give the boss a heads up.

If some shortsighted person got bought over and tampered with things, leading to subsequent product quality issues, the whole factory would be implicated.

After hearing about this, Zhi Xia instantly recalled the batch of controllers she had been blocked from buying last year.

She had found Boss Huang from a few months ago. According to his account, he had also been tricked. He said the other party had also wanted to collude with him to sabotage her factory and wait to profit from her downfall, but unexpectedly she had managed to get the factory running, ruining their scheme.

That batch of controllers had been quite valuable. Zhi Xia had kept an eye on the market since then. If a large quantity appeared, there was no way she wouldn\'t discover it or be able to keep such a sizable batch hidden without doing anything.

But it had been silent these past few months, so she assumed the other party had taken the goods elsewhere or disposed of them under her nose if they were capable enough.

Plus she had been so busy lately that she didn\'t have time to pay close attention to other matters, so she hadn\'t been too concerned.

Half a year later, that batch of controllers had finally surfaced in the market. She wondered if they were from the batch she had gotten blocked.

What a pity though, she didn\'t need them anymore.

"What\'s the name of that old friend of yours? Where does he live?" Zhi Xia asked.

The questions made Jiang Tao freeze up, unsure what Zhi Xia was planning.

She smiled and explained, "As a factory leader, as you know, our factory got blocked from a batch of controllers before. I just want to ask your friend some questions. What\'s with that expression? You\'re not worried I\'d secretly send someone to deal with him, are you?"

"No no." Hearing the boss came from a military family, she probably wouldn\'t do anything illegal. Jiang Tao thought about it and answered Zhi Xia\'s questions.

After Jiang Tao left, Zhi Xia summoned Yuan Bao and had him keep an eye on that man to see who he had been in contact with recently.

If it hadn\'t been for her batch getting intercepted, she could let it go. But now that she knew someone had sabotaged her from behind, she was going to make them taste bitter consequences.

Right after briefing Yuan Bao clearly on the matter, she also got off work and went home, where she heard from Sister Zhang that Third Brother had gotten into an accident at the hospital,

Sister Zhang said a man had inexplicably stabbed him with a knife and his status was currently unknown.

Zhi Xia\'s heart skipped a beat. After instructing Sister Zhang briefly, she hurried over to the hospital.

The whole family was already waiting outside the operating room, and Zhou Nan was sobbing uncontrollably.

Zhi Xia quickly went over to ask, "What happened? How is Third Brother?"

"He\'s still in surgery. We don\'t know the specifics yet."

Seeing her crying so hard and incoherently, Zhi Xia could only turn to An JingZhi. "How did Third Brother suddenly get stabbed? Was it a patient\'s family member..."

She could only think it was some medical dispute. An ZhiXian was currently a top doctor at the hospital and one of the few actively advocating integrated Chinese and Western medicine. Since returning from abroad, the cough and asthma Chinese medicine he had developed had passed review by the drug regulatory agency and was being mass produced at a pharmaceutical factory. Because of this, he had also been featured in People\'s Daily.

There were also the male oral contraceptives that were being rapidly popularized since the formal legislation of the family planning policy, sparing many women the pain of ligation while also achieving over 99% contraceptive rates, with both short-term and long-lasting versions up to three years.

At this thought, Zhi Xia flushed slightly. Fortunately this was her brother. Otherwise she suspected what would have been developed was female contraceptives instead of male ones.

But to Zhi Xia\'s surprise, this time An ZhiXian had been inexplicably stabbed over the contraceptives.

The assailant already had 5 daughters at home. Since family planning was promoted last year, he and his wife had been trying every way to conceive a son. His wife got pregnant after two months in hiding but unfortunately miscarried from a fall. The man got forced to take long-term contraceptives, and seeing no more hope for children, instead of blaming the people who caught him or coerced him, he blamed An ZhiXian as the contraceptive developer.

He found the newspaper that had covered An ZhiXian, then posed as a patient to surveil the hospital back and forth for several days before finally finding an opportunity to suddenly pull out a knife and stab An ZhiXian, who had just finished an exhausting surgery.

An ZhiXian\'s abdomen was stabbed once. He was immediately pulled into the ER, and the An family rushed over to await outside the operating room where his status remained unknown.

"What about the stabber? Was he arrested?" Zhi Xia asked again.

"The police took him away."

Just then, the operating room door opened and the surgeon came out.

"Doctor, how is my son?" Zhou Nan anxiously rushed to ask.

"The surgery was very successful. He will be fine now. The injury was to his abdomen. Doctor An will need ample rest and recuperation."

After being moved from the OR to a premium single room for his status, the An family finally got to see him.

But this had been an unforeseen disaster.
