Mommy! How did You Lose Multiple Identities Again! - Chapter 33
Xuan Turtle was very efficient. He quickly sent Qiao Nian the latest targeted drug from Anna Pharmaceutical.
Qiao Nian’s laboratory was already set up in the Eleventh Building. She spent half the afternoon testing Anna Pharmaceutical’s new drug. As she expected, it was indeed her mother’s exclusive formula.
The new drug was used to treat cancer. Currently, most of the targeted drugs on the market were used to treat tissue organs or cancerous cells. Anna’s new drug had opened up a whole new field— directly targeting mutated genes.
The drug had not been launched yet because of the explosion of technological innovation in the industry, and Anna herself had been in the limelight recently.
Of course, Qiao Nian firmly believed that the developers of Anna’s drug, including the nominal inventor of the drug, Anna herself, did not know the real mechanism of the drug! Because this was a secret between her and her mother.
This secret dated back to six years ago, when her mother had mentioned this targeted drug to her. Her mother’s idea was to directly act on the cancer genes, causing the cancer cells to go extinct in their self-development, thus achieving the goal of completely eliminating them.
Back then, her mother had attempted to extract the gene fragments that led to the extinction of the extinct species. However, it was very difficult to carry out the research.
Her mother once took her to a museum and found her research sample, which was mammoth ivory.
Strictly speaking, mammoth ivory was not a fossil. It was only 10,000 years old. It would take about 40,000 years for a fossil to form. Mammoth ivory was not considered precious either. There was a lot of it in the world. Unlike modern ivory, mammoth ivory could be freely circulated on the market.
Mammoth ivory and modern ivory both had very characteristic revolving engine lines.
Back then, her mother had the formula and production technology for this medicine. However, her mother had said that although the stock of mammoth ivory was considerable, it was not a renewable resource after all. Large-scale production was impossible; therefore, her mother had finally given up on marketing this medicine.
Qiao Nian had not expected to see this medicine again six years later! Now, she could basically confirm that her mother was being held hostage by Anna Pharmaceutical!
Qiao Nian clenched her fists silently. Her mother was so smart. Although she was imprisoned, she must have learned something from the place she was in. This medicine was the distress signal her mother sent to her!
After researching the new medicine, Qiao Nian got Xuan Turtle to check Anna Pharmaceutical’s purchase history over the past few years.
Qiao Nian found out that Anna Pharmaceutical’s purchase of mammoth ivory happened in the past six years. On the one hand, the quantity of purchases was very small. On the other hand, the purchase list was mixed with other rare animal products!
This was her mother’s doing. In order to not be discovered by Anna Pharmaceutical’s people, she must have strategically ordered several other rare ingredients so as not to let Anna Pharmaceutical know that the most important ingredient for production was mammoth ivory!
From the looks of it, Anna Pharmaceutical’s new medicine had not been mass-produced at all! This was her mother’s delaying tactic. Qiao Nian knew that she had to save her mother very soon!
After coming up with a plan, Qiao Nian immediately contacted Claud and promised to call him to Eleventh Building for dinner.
When Claud came, he brought Qin Geng along. Qin Geng and Qiao Mo had not seen each other for a day and they acted like they had not seen each other for three years. As soon as they saw each other, the two children immediately got together and started chattering.
Qiao Nian and Claud had discussed her plan. She wanted to purchase all the mammoth tusks in stock!
“Oh my God! Qiao Nian!” Claud asked, “Isn’t this taking up too much money? Although the price is not very high, the stock of mammoth tusks is still very substantial.”
Qiao Nian also frowned. She had estimated that it was indeed difficult to complete the acquisition by one person. Mammoth ivory was mainly used for decoration, and some musical instruments would need mammoth ivory to function. The acquisition of it was not difficult, but it was hard to raise money to do so.
“You can ask Qin Yang!” Claude said, “Aren’t you two in a relationship?”
“Pfft—” Qiao Nian couldn’t stop herself from choking. “What nonsense are you talking about? I have nothing to do with him, okay?”
“Little Geng said that you two are in a relationship!” Claud was puzzled.
“How can you believe a child’s words? Little Geng keeps calling me mommy!” Qiao Nian was speechless.
“But Qin Yang keeps asking me about your hobbies. I thought you two were dating!” Claud scratched his head..
