Chapter 196
Five days passed.
Only two boxes of Elixir of Longevity were sold. One of which was bought by a friend of Theodore.
After all, most people thought it was bullshit that the elixir worth 200 million dollars could rejuvenate people and make them ten to 30 years younger.
This was the 21st century, and they couldn’t believe some people still tried to make a fortune out of a scam.
There were countless posts on the Internet analyzing the falsity of the Elixir of Longevity.
Even the world’s top biotechnology couldn’t do it. Santos Group, a company in Newden, had no news about life extension before. How could it be possible to research it quickly?
However, Leonard and all the shareholders of Santos Group weren’t anxious.
As long as the product was of excellent quality, they wouldn’t worry about no one buying it.
If Leonard hadn’t said that the products.
would be continuously produced, several shareholders would have wanted to buy one for themselves.
On the seventh day, the Elixir of Longevity finally had its third customer.
On the tenth day, sales suddenly started to rise.
Customers told others how magical the Elixir of Longevity was. As a result, its efficacy began to spread among small circles.
On the fifteenth day, all 50 boxes of the Elixir of Longevity were sold out.
At the same time, many wealthy people who got the news called and ordered the second batch of the elixir.
Within a few days, before the second batch of elixir could be produced, they were all booked.
The reputation of the Elixir of Longevity had officially spread.
Even people in Imperial City knew about Santos Group, a company in Newden.
Inside the Rodgers Villa, Philip snorted coldly, “Are these people crazy? The Elixir of Longevity is obviously fake. They actually booked it. It must be Santos
Group’s deliberate false advertising.”
While he talked, George walked in.
“How was the investigation?” Philip asked, “Did Santos Group find shills and do hunger marketing?”
George shook his head and said, “I sent people to investigate and found that some people had indeed bought the Elixir of Longevity released by Santos Group.
“Moreover, Issac was bedridden and might. die at any time. After taking the Elixir of Longevity, he has now driven his car to the Star Lake to fish.
“And Riley usually relied on a ventilator. The doctor asked the family to prepare for the funeral. After taking the Elixir of Longevity, he got up yesterday and beat his son who coveted his property…”
“What?”
The expression on Philip’s face suddenly froze.
Melanie thought it was impossible.
“How can this be true?”
She couldn’t believe it, nor did she want to believe it. If it were true, it meant that the Santos Group’s business would skyrocket.
At this moment, Philip’s phone rang.
It was a video call from an old friend.
