Upon hearing this, Ghost's expression hardened, and he quickly activated the anti-eavesdropping device!

With a soft "beep," the green indicator light on the device lit up, and he then reported to his superior in a deep voice: "BOSS, everything is arranged! Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, we will take a yacht from the nearby dock and set sail."

"A yacht going out to sea?" A hint of doubt flashed in Su Chen's eyes. If he remembered correctly, the Bai family's private island was nearly a hundred nautical miles from Hawaii. A typical yacht would only go about twenty knots. Wouldn't that take four hours?

Seemingly noticing the doubt in Su Chen's eyes, Ghost quickly explained, "BOSS, we're just going out to sea on the yacht. Once we get to the open ocean, our own boats are waiting for us!"

Hearing this, Su Chen nodded thoughtfully, thinking that Ghost and the others had already made the arrangements.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, then abruptly changed the subject to the private island, "Besides what you reported to me before, have you made any new discoveries on the island?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed across Ghost's face, and he nodded heavily to Su Chen, saying, "BOSS~ We did indeed discover something new up there - the Bai family's research base. If we hadn't put in some effort during the search, they might have actually escaped."

Ghost then recounted the entire story of the research base, and it became clear that Ghost and his team were able to discover it thanks to the road leading to the heart of the island.

They followed the clues and found the underground research base. At the time, there were more than a dozen medical researchers in the base. After Ghost dispersed and questioned the researchers, they learned that the project they were researching was called "Project Rejuvenation"!
The main research focuses on a hormone called "adrenaline red," which is said to have the same effect as the name of the project: to rejuvenate and restore youth!

According to researchers, just one injection of this hormone-based drug can make wrinkles disappear, making people in their fifties or sixties look like they are only in their thirties or forties.

"Adrenaline red?" Su Chen was instantly dumbfounded. This knowledge point stumped Su Chen, who only had a high school education. He could only turn his gaze to Chen Yao, the high-achieving student next to him.

But Su Chen noticed that Chen Yao's face had become somewhat gloomy, and a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes from time to time. Without even thinking, Su Chen knew that Chen Yao must know about the hormone, otherwise he wouldn't be acting like this.

"Brother Yao, is there anything wrong with this adrenaline red?" Su Chen asked with some curiosity.

Chen Yao took a deep breath, his knuckles turning white from clenching his fists, and his voice was so low it sounded like it was being squeezed out from between his teeth: "This isn't ordinary hormones. It's blood!"

The temperature in the room plummeted instantly after Chen Yao spoke.

"Blood?" Su Chen's pupils contracted sharply as he suddenly remembered the "rejuvenation" effect that the ghost had mentioned earlier. A bizarre guess suddenly surged up his spine, making Su Chen feel a chill run down his spine.

"Yes, it's blood!" Chen Yao nodded emphatically. "Everyone has this hormone in their body, but as we grow, the amount of this hormone decreases!"

"Only minors have a relatively high amount of adrenaline in their blood, especially children, whose blood adrenaline concentration is twenty times that of adults!"

“I’ve heard about this kind of research from others before. It’s mostly wealthy people in Europe and America who are investing in it. They say it has a restorative effect on the human body.” Chen Yao’s voice grew colder, and his eyes flashed with angry flames.

Even Su Chen was no exception; his face was so gloomy it was almost dripping water, and the gloom in his eyes was not concealed at all.

Su Chen took several deep breaths to suppress his anger, then turned to Ghost and asked, "Did you find anything in the research base?"

Su Chen didn't say the rest aloud, but Ghost naturally understood what his boss was asking. He gently shook his head and said, "BOSS, we didn't find anyone else in the research base."

"Nothing found? You mean the research base only has those researchers?" Su Chen's voice rose several decibels, and even his previously gloomy expression dissipated considerably.

Ghost nodded calmly and said, "Yes, BOSS! We searched the entire underground research base and found no trace of anyone other than the researchers."

"According to the researchers themselves, they had only started this project less than a month ago, and the blood samples in the lab were sent by the Bai family. There were only about ten samples in total, and they had already been used up!"

"Skull and I discussed it, and based on the information we obtained during our interrogation, we concluded that the Bai family had only just entered this field and hadn't even officially started before we shut them down!"

"Speaking of which, the Bai family deserved their fate!" As he said this, a hint of pride flashed across Ghost's face!
He seemed to be saying that he was doing a service to the people, but he didn't notice that Su Chen's gaze towards him had become somewhat unfriendly.

The ghost quickly noticed this, and seeing Su Chen's slightly narrowed eyes, it felt a chill run down its spine. Somewhat nervously, it asked, "BOSS~ Did I say something wrong!"

Su Chen glared at Ghost immediately. "One-third of the bonus for this operation will be deducted. If you leave things unfinished like this again, the entire bonus will be deducted."

When Ghost heard that his bonus would be deducted, he immediately became anxious. He hadn't forgotten how generous his boss had been last time in Miandian. Moreover, they had found a lot of good stuff this time, so the bonus would definitely be much more generous than before.

"Boss, could you please not deduct my bonus?" Ghost was no longer the tough guy he used to be; he looked at Su Chen with a pitiful expression.

After finishing speaking, Ghost thought of something and quickly said, "By the way, boss! We also found a lot of research reports at the research base, which are the medical research results of the Bai family in the field of medicine, including many medical patents!"

Su Chen had originally thought that the captain of the Ghost Squad, a cold-blooded figure who walked on the edge of life and death, was actually acting pitiful in front of him, so he decided to let it go and just give him a warning.

Unexpectedly, he was hit with another powerful move the next second, which made Su Chen so angry that he almost laughed out loud.

He squinted at the ghost and said, "You'd better explain things clearly from the start next time. If you do this again, hmph, it won't be as simple as just deducting your bonus. Consider this a lesson you'll learn!"

Upon hearing this, Ghost realized it was his fault. He jumped to his feet and solemnly assured them, "Yes, BOSS! There won't be another one! It will never happen again!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen calmly waved his hand, "Alright~ Sit down, just remember that next time!"

Once the ghost sat down, Su Chen continued, "Have you discovered anything else?"

The ghost thought for a moment, and after confirming that nothing had been missed, it shook its head slightly to indicate that nothing was missing.

Having recovered, Chen Yao, remembering the purpose of their trip, couldn't help but interject, "Um... Ghost Team Leader, may I ask what model of plane wreckage you found?"

When Ghost heard Chen Yao's question, he paused slightly and looked at Su Chen subconsciously. When Su Chen nodded slightly, Ghost immediately understood and thought for a moment before replying, "To be honest, it looks like a Bald Eagle's active B-2 bomber, but I feel like something is not right, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

"If it were tanks or cannons, I could tell what model they were just by looking at them, but this airplane is a real challenge for me!"

This isn't Ghost being modest. As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. Ghost is good at special operations and is familiar with things he frequently comes into contact with. He only has a general understanding of high-end things like bombers.

The speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart. Chen Yao's thoughts were instantly drawn to the ghost's words, which sounded like a B2 bomber, but with some differences.
Chen Yao immediately fell into deep thought, frantically searching his mind for any information he knew about the B-2 bomber.

Soon, an answer appeared in Chen Yao's mind, but he felt it was a bit unrealistic, completely unaware that his expression was also changing with his inner thoughts.

Su Chen and You Ling looked at Chen Yao, who was sometimes frowning and sometimes excited, and couldn't help but exchange a glance, but neither of them could find the answer in the other's eyes.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chen reached out and gently patted Chen Yao's shoulder, tentatively asking, "Brother Yao~ Did you think of something?"

Coming to his senses, Chen Yao was about to voice his guess, but he stopped himself, saying, "I'm not sure yet. I'll have to go to the site to see for myself before I know if I'm right!" Su Chen gave Chen Yao a meaningful look; he understood that there was definitely more to the story behind the plane wreckage on the island.

However, Su Chen did not press the matter further, knowing that he would naturally find out the answer once he arrived on the island the next day.

After chatting for a while, Su Chen realized it was already ten o'clock, so he looked at Chen Yao and said, "It's getting late. You've been on a plane for ten hours straight, you must be exhausted. Yao-ge, why don't you go wash up and rest?"

Chen Yao was taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly realized that there were some things he couldn't hear. He smiled and nodded, then randomly found a bedroom and pushed his suitcase inside.

After the door closed, Su Chen took out a white pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one for himself, threw the pack on the table, and lit the cigarette in his mouth.

Chen Fei and You Ling were quite self-aware; without Su Chen saying anything, they each took a cigarette and started smoking.

In an instant, wisps of smoke filled the living room.

After smoking half of his cigarette, Su Chen flicked the ash off his hand, his eyes flashing with a sharp edge. "Ghost, call Adam and tell him it's time to settle the mess we left behind!"

Ghost naturally understood what Su Chen meant by "tail." It was nothing more than the exorbitant bounty that Young Master Bai had set before he "left." After so long, it was time to give him an explanation.

"BOSS~ those dozen or so medical researchers on the island, are they also...?" The ghost raised his right hand and gestured twice at his neck, the meaning of which was very clear.

He knew why Su Chen had cleaned up the mess beforehand; it was because the things Su Chen had found on the island had displeased his boss.

"Phew~" Su Chen exhaled the last puff of smoke, stubbed out the cigarette butt in his hand in the ashtray, and then replied, "Let's leave them alone for now. Since these people were the Bai family's former medical researchers, it means that their abilities in medicine must be top-notch. Keeping them around will still be useful!"

Su Chen hadn't forgotten that one of the Bai family's pillar industries was a pharmaceutical company, which was very famous throughout Southeast Asia. Of course, it was still a bit inferior to Indian generic drugs.

Upon hearing Su Chen's instructions, Ghost immediately nodded in understanding. After turning off the jammer on the table, he took out his phone and dialed Adam's encrypted number. After only one ring, Adam's deep voice came from the other end of the line, "Ghost, what's the matter?"

"The boss says it's time to wrap things up!" Ghost said briefly.

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then Adam's voice was tinged with coldness as he said, "Understood. It will be done by tomorrow at the latest."

After hanging up the phone, Ghost looked at Su Chen and said, "BOSS, everything's been arranged with Adam!" After a pause, Ghost turned on the jammer on the table.

Seeing this, Su Chen raised an eyebrow and his gaze fell on the ghost. The ghost noticed Su Chen's gaze and immediately explained, "Boss, I have an idea."

"Speak up if you have any ideas. If you say something good, I won't deduct your bonus!" Su Chen teased, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

Ghost's eyes lit up, as if he could already see the third of his bonus that Su Chen had withheld beckoning to him!

Taking a deep breath and organizing his thoughts, he finally spoke: "Boss, if you're going to keep all those medical researchers, I suggest sending them all to Laos to set up a new pharmaceutical company there!"

"Hmm?" Su Chen looked at the ghost with some surprise, gesturing for him to continue.

"Boss~ Actually, Laos's medical environment is even better than India's. As one of the least developed countries in the WTO, it enjoys a special right, namely, the right to exemption from pharmaceutical patents!"

"In other words, it is legal to manufacture any patented drug in Laos, and the local government provides very strong support for the pharmaceutical industry. Lao pharmaceutical products have a great influence all over the world and are known as 'price killers'!"

"If we open a pharmaceutical company in Laos, with IPS's local influence and the support of the boss, I believe we can integrate the entire Lao pharmaceutical market in a short period of time!"

Ghost blurted out everything he knew in one breath, becoming more and more excited as he spoke, as if the blueprint for this plan had already been realized.

After listening to Ghost's suggestion, Su Chen tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, his eyes flashing with a thoughtful light. Ghost's suggestion was indeed very good and had great potential!
"This matter should be handled by you. After the issues on the private island are resolved, you will take those researchers to Laos. If you need any help, just contact Adam and say that I told him to!"

"Ah~" Ghost was completely dumbfounded. He never expected Su Chen to entrust this matter to him. "BOSS~ How about Adam takes charge of this? My brain is good for handling 'things', but I'd rather not manage a company!"

"Are you sure?" Su Chen's lips curled slightly, and he said with a hint of amusement, "You should know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so you'd better think it through!"

"Confirmed!" Ghost nodded emphatically!

"Boss~ Professional matters should be handled by professionals. I'm an amateur, so I'd better pass!" Ghost said righteously, without the slightest hesitation on his face!

Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately laughed, becoming increasingly satisfied with Ghost. It's important for a person to know their own limitations; if Ghost had actually taken on this task, Su Chen might have developed a different opinion of him.

"Alright~ This matter will be handled by Adam. Future Pharmaceuticals will allocate 10% of its profits as a reward for you, Adam, and Skull!"

Su Chen understood the principle that you have to feed a horse if you want it to run.

The pharmaceutical company hasn't even started yet. Whether it can succeed or grow into a large company is still unknown. Now, they're just making grand promises and putting them in Ghost's hands. Who knows, maybe some miracle will actually happen!

If what Ghost said is true, then opening a pharmaceutical company in Laos definitely has a future. Once you thoroughly research all the patented drugs on the market, it will be much simpler to use that foundation to research more advanced ones.

Then, relying on these newly developed drugs, they can enter the domestic market through legitimate pharmaceutical companies. As we all know, imported drugs are expensive in China, so I'll offer drugs with similar effects and halve their price, focusing on the principle that if you fail, I'll make less money.

Of course, all of this is just Su Chen's imagination, and when it will come to fruition is anyone's guess.

"Hiss~" Ghost's pupils suddenly contracted, and a breath of cold air entered his lungs through his nose, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.

She suddenly stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Su Chen, "Boss~ Don't worry, we will definitely achieve great things!"

It is said that a scholar will die for one who understands him, and isn't the same true for ghosts now? If pharmaceutical companies really grow big and strong, it will no longer be a dream for them to become billionaires.

They risk their lives to make money, and now that Su Chen has given them a broad road to success, how can they not be loyal to Su Chen to the death?
Su Chen chuckled and patted Ghost's arm. "I look forward to a big surprise from you guys in the future! Alright, that's about all we have to say. If there's nothing else, everyone should go back to their rooms and rest!"

As he spoke, Su Chen stood up, his gaze sweeping over Chen Fei and You Ling. Seeing that neither of them spoke, he walked straight towards his room.

As soon as Su Chen entered the room, he heard a cheer from outside. Hearing this, Su Chen smiled and shook his head, "It seems that I need to make more promises to them in the future to give them more motivation!"

After taking a quick shower, Su Chen lay down on the bed. He hadn't forgotten that he still had an important matter to attend to. He rubbed his hands together and silently recited in his mind...
"System!" (End of Chapter)
