Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 537: Chapter 535: Food Safety is More Important Than Everything 【2nd Update】

Qin Xunchang could clearly feel the imprint of a shoe on his face.

A savage fury erupted in his heart!

How good can the temper be of someone who can earn dirty money so openly?!

All he wanted now was to use money to settle problems without further effort!

But!

This Lu Xiaobu was so uncooperative, repeatedly disregarding his words as if they were nothing!

Now, to even raise a hand against him?!

This was a feud that could not share the same sky!

However, as he was pondering this, Zhang Meng grabbed him!

”What are you doing?! What do you want?!”

Qin Xunchang’s anger intensified!

These Lu Group people are all hooligans!

Would Zhang Meng even answer him?!

You’ve got to be kidding!

Zhang Meng, using his massive strength, dragged Qin Xunchang out and straight-up tossed him from Lu Group.

Yep, Qin Xunchang fell hard onto his butt!

Humiliation, rage, an endless turmoil of emotions churned within him!

Him, a high-profile figure on the Second Level Rich List, thrown out like that?!

This is freaking war!

So be it, let’s fight to the death then!

As he was thinking this, he noticed bursts of camera flashes!

Qin Xunchang’s pathetic state was recorded clearly by the reporters who had been following the struggle between Lu Group and the spicy snacks industry!

”What are you doing?!”

Qin Xunchang’s fury escalated further!

His years of self-cultivation and restraint went straight to the dogs in a split second!

”What are we doing?! This is going on the news!”

The reporters scurried away; those who dared to hunt for news near Lu Group were not afraid of trouble!

This news was absolutely front-page material!

Sure enough!

Just after Qin Xunchang got home, he saw the news!

His miserable figure sitting outside Lu Group’s entrance was spread all over the internet!

”Qin Xunchang Thrown Out of Lu Group”

”Is This the Beginning of Lu Group’s War with Qin Xunchang?”

”Does This Mean Lu Xiaobu Is Going for the Second Level Rich List?”

”Was Qin Xunchang’s Visit to Lu Xiaobu Related to the Recent Spicy Snacks Incident?”

”Lu Xiaobu Is Still the Reckless Lu Xiaobu”

”The Most Embarrassing Moment in Qin Xunchang’s History”

”...”

”Damn it!”

Watching one news item after another, Qin Xunchang, who was already furious, just exploded!

He swung a chair and smashed it onto the computer in front of him!

”Lu Xiaobu, this means war between us!”

Qin Xunchang really hadn’t expected to be humiliated by Lu Xiaobu like this without revealing his own true identity!

He immediately took out his phone and started making arrangements!

Damn it, I can’t speak for other industries, but you dare to fight with me in the spicy snacks industry?!

I’ll give you a good fight!

...

That very same evening,

A subtle recall campaign for spicy snacks began!

Qin Xunchang invested a huge sum of money, instructing people to buy back spicy snacks, not through standard manufacturer recalls, but by purchasing them!

And those merchants, already stressed about not being able to sell their spicy snacks due to the current scandal,

Now that someone was buying, naturally chose to sell off their entire stock even at a loss.

Under these mutually agreeable circumstances, the nation’s spicy snacks were bought back within a couple of days!

...

While Qin Xunchang was busy with the spicy snacks recall,

The system had also found the recipe Lu Xiaobu was looking for.

”Here, the formula you wanted.”

The system said languidly.

”Good. It meets the standard, right? None of that E. coli and whatnot!”

Lu Xiaobu nodded and took it.

”Of course, it’s not just up to standard, it’s completely absent! After all, those things are just what manufacturers do to cut costs. Making spicy strips with peace of mind isn’t supposed to involve any of that!”

The system explained casually, ”I’m off! You take your time dealing with it!”

”Okay.”

Lu Xiaobu bid farewell to the system, then called over Liang Lan: ”Sister Lan, let’s start building the factory, here’s the formula. It’s okay if it takes a little longer, think big, let’s completely take over the spicy strip market!”

”Sure, Young Master.”

Liang Lan nodded her head.

After Liang Lan left, Lu Xiaobu squinted his eyes: ”That bastard who deserves to eat shit, I’m waiting for you to show up!”

Once he dominated the spicy strip market, he didn’t believe that bastard wouldn’t pop out!

...

Lu Xiaobu and Qin Xunchang from both sides were pulling their tricks.

However, Qin Xunchang, who was exerting less effort, was moving a bit faster.

All the spicy strips had been completely recalled.

...

And on the internet at this moment.

The spicy strip controversy was continuing, but it was starting to slow down.

After all, if you don’t eat them, there’s no need to keep scrutinizing something barely distinguishable from shit!

But just then, the spicy strip controversy was brought up once again!

This time, it wasn’t Lu Xiaobu, but Qin Xunchang!

Qin Xunchang held a press conference!

Today, Qin Xunchang was dressed very formally, his face full of a serious expression!

”I want to talk about the spicy strip incident from before at today’s press conference.”

Qin Xunchang, with his hands propped on the podium, said to the dense crowd of journalists below:

”As a leader in the snack industry, especially in the noodle and bean snack sectors, Qin Group has an undeniable social responsibility when such issues arise.”

”It’s not just because I am on the Second Level Rich List, but also because of my duty as someone in the food industry!”

”So, after that day, we immediately began investigating the truth of the matter.”

”After all, food safety is more important than anything!”

As he said this, the journalists below broke into applause.

”Well said!”

”Right, food safety is more important than anything!”

”Nice job!”

”...”

After the applause and praise, Qin Xunchang pressed his hands down, signaling for everyone to be quiet.

”I know everyone is eager to hear the results, I understand.”

”In fact, we had the results a few days ago, but I had some doubts about them, so I went to seek evidence from Lu Xiaobu, and, well, you all know the outcome.”

Qin Xunchang’s words made the journalists furrow their brows.

What does this mean?

Something feels off!

Wasn’t it Lu Xiaobu who first noticed the problems with the spicy strips?

Why does it now seem like Qin Xunchang is mentioning something completely different from Lu Xiaobu?!

And that last encounter?!

That encounter wasn’t pleasant at all!

By linking this to the spicy strip controversy, what is Qin Xunchang implying?

Everyone’s curiosity was piqued!

”Don’t be hasty, let me show you a piece of news first!”

”I heard that Lu Group has been purchasing some equipment recently, and it just so happens that I have good relations with the manufacturer of that equipment. After all, it’s equipment for making snacks. Yes, for noodle-type, spicy strip-type snacks.”

Qin Xunchang continued.

This piqued even greater curiosity among the journalists, but also made the more perceptive ones perk up!

Could this be!

”Alright, let’s get back on topic. The news I have found out is that all the spicy strips meet the standard, so... where exactly did the problem arise?!”

Qin Xunchang spread his hands and slowly said.

A statement that caused a stormy reaction!

He was directly pointing at Lu Xiaobu!
