Chapter 98: Purchasing The Formula
“Boohoo… I was in the wrong…”
Little Jin had no choice but to apologize to Qiu Tong and the three children.
The gazes of the kindergarten parents changed as they looked at the Qiu family. They turned away and kept silent. How could they dare to spout any more nonsense?
Song Yan lazily raised his finger and rubbed his forehead. He said casually, “Children have to be controlled when they make mistakes, but scolding alone is useless. You have to educate them.”
“What would happen if he bears a grudge against other children in the kindergarten in the future?”
Little Jin’s mother understood his hint and pulled Little Jin to his feet. She promised him, “Definitely not! Don’t worry… I will definitely educate him well!”
Qiu Tong stared at Song Yan. She had a nagging feeling that he was different today.
Furthermore, Chief Officer Fang had clearly said that the guest presenter for the award ceremony did not have the surname Song, but it was still Song Yan who came to the kindergarten. What went wrong?
Qiu Tong could sense an unfamiliar aura from the man before her. Was she being too sensitive?
Song Yan sensed Qiu Tong’s probing gaze. He immediately withdrew the mischievous smile on his face and switched to his indifferent expression. He tugged at his tie and pursed his thin lips into a straight line as he looked ahead…
Qiu Tong heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that familiar expression and mannerisms, dispelling her suspicions.
This was obviously the person she was familiar with.
Perhaps the strange environment in the kindergarten had caused him to behave abnormally. Qiu Tong found an explanation for Song Yan’s abnormal behavior.
However, Qiu Tong did not know that imitating Jin Yang was very simple for Song Yan. He had often used this trick to cheat his parents and gain more care and concern for him.
Even his biological parents could not differentiate between him and Jin Yang, much less Qiu Tong?
At the thought of this, Song Yan gritted his teeth in self-deprecation. Annoyance pricked his heart. As soon as the award ceremony ended, he looked at Qiu Tong and walked out of the kindergarten.
Mayor Shen personally escorted him out before returning to the auditorium. He looked at Qiu Tong and rubbed his hands together, speaking in an extremely genial tone.
“Miss Qiu, your son’s locust pesticide is very successful and we are very interested in it. Can you sell us the formula?”
“We will mass-produce it. If you want, we can pay you a patent fee.”
Qiu Tong was a little surprised, but she quickly lowered her eyes to look at Qiu Xingyuan and said, “He was the one who developed the locust pesticide. You should be asking Xingyuan for his opinion, not mine…”
Qiu Xingyuan looked up at Qiu Tong in astonishment.
She was giving him the authority?!
Qiu Tong smiled and nodded encouragingly. “Mommy respects your opinions.”
Even though they were young children, they also had the right to decide upon things that belonged to them!
Qiu Tong’s respect and support for Qiu Xingyuan made his heart tremble. He clenched his small fists and nodded in agreement.
Mayor Shen nodded and squatted down to say to Qiu Xingyuan, “We have a budget of $15,000 to purchase the locust pesticide formula. What do you think?”
“If you’re not satisfied, I can discuss with my superior about increasing the fee…”
The high budget amount exceeded Qiu Tong’s expectations. It also shocked the other parents who had stopped to watch the commotion.
They really did not expect the Qiu family children to be so capable. They were able to earn money even though they were still in kindergarten. And it was such a huge sum of money!
They suddenly felt that the certificates in their hands were not good enough!
“Look, compared to this kind of patent fee, what’s so great about a computer award?”
“Earlier, Little Jin’s family looked down on the children of the Qiu family. If we had children as obedient and adorable as those from the Qiu family, we would be able to smile even in our dreams. Little Jin usually only knows to brag and bully female classmates in kindergarten. He deserves to be scolded!”
Little Jin’s mother was utterly embarrassed by the whispers of the other parents. She felt very ashamed and lost all her earlier bluster.
Qiu Xingyuan looked at Qiu Tong hesitantly and saw that she had no objections or opinions. They had reached a verbal deal with Mayor Shen for $15,000.
Mayor Shen found his secretary and signed the check on the spot, before handing it to Qiu Xingyuan.
At the same time, he looked up at Qiu Tong and said, “After the locust pesticide is mass-produced, the Qiu family can also sell it on the market. The profits will be yours…”
“This is part of the official mandate. I’ll send you the business contract soon.”
As soon as these words were uttered, the surrounding people started discussing like crazy. They all knew how profitable pharmaceuticals were on the market, and how rare it was to have an official mandate to sell.
At the thought of this, the parents looked at Qiu Tong with admiration and envy.
