“Puff!”

Chen Xiaoxing is young, but he is at the age where he seems to understand things but not quite. Children of this age are not good at lying and they cannot hide their emotions.

Seeing Chen Xiaoxing smile, Murong Longfei naturally couldn't argue with him, but snorted coldly: "What do you know, a kid? That little bit of leftovers is enough to support you for a lifetime."

Lin Xiao also heard this news by chance when he was in Dark Star, but they had lost contact with the outside world for a long time and had no idea of the specific situation.

But when there are good things, he would naturally think of giving them to his son and these orphans.

"How expensive would that be?" Xu Junfei asked with envy.

"Let me put it this way, I just rely on eating a little bit of leftovers and I am far superior to people of my age. Just think about it." Murong Longfei showed a profound expression.

Everyone just thought that this guy was a bit pretentious, but since he was the strongest here, no one dared to say anything.

But Lin Xiao didn't buy his story, "Just tell me the specific price and how to get it!"

Seeing Lin Xiao speak, Murong Longfei stopped keeping the secret and said with a serious face: "This thing is called 'gene modification agent'. It is best used by minors. After taking it, it can greatly enhance a person's physique. It will be of great help in opening up the meridians and sensing the vital energy in the future. It can make future cultivation progress by leaps and bounds."

"Look at me. My original talent was decent, but not amazing. But after eating a dozen portions of other people's leftovers, I improved by leaps and bounds. Even I couldn't believe it. Later, the owner found out and kicked me out."

"As for the price, I remember they talked about it at the time. The price of one copy was about 100,000 yuan, and ordinary people couldn't buy it at all. You had to enter a special trading network, and only people with high status or noble status were qualified to enter."

After Murong Longfei finished speaking, everyone seemed to give up. With 100,000 yuan per person, it would be difficult to successfully train one person.

However, Lin Xiao was not moved at all, as if the high price did not surprise him. "How many servings does one person have to eat to reach the limit?"

Murong Longfei looked at Lin Xiao in surprise. He couldn't see through this person from the very beginning. Although his strength was average, his demeanor was that of a master.

"Ten servings are enough. If possible, it is best to take it for a long time. This medicine can replenish all the energy needed by the human body. In other words, it can be taken as a meal. It does not contain impurities and will not cause any side effects to the human body."

For a minimum of ten servings, one person would need at least one million yuan. If we assume there are fifty people, how much would that cost

If you take it for a long time, who can stand it

Lin Xiao clenched his fists. Although this thing was expensive, there were still many people who could afford one million. However, the news and channels were all blocked, which was really frustrating.

"I'll find a way to deal with this. Good things like this can't be enjoyed by the rich alone. They just want their descendants to always stay ahead. They release some Qi-boosting pills and let us be cannon fodder. What a sinister heart."

Lin Xiao's words attracted different opinions. Mo Yin said, "Letting us be cannon fodder, I don't think it's entirely true, maybe it's because it was developed not long ago."

Lin Xiao has reflected a lot in recent time, and he increasingly feels that the matter of Dark Star is not that simple.

"Hey, this Qi-boosting pill was shipped in large quantities right after it was developed. Although the price was driven up, it has started to drop again today. What does this mean? It means that the productivity is sufficient. With current biotechnology, as long as the formula is correct, mass production is the easiest thing. But the genetic modification agent has been out for many years, why is it not promoted vigorously? Even the news is not announced to ordinary people? The intention is obvious."

Lin Xiao's words made everyone fall into deep thought. That's right, with the current technology, it is not difficult to synthesize any medicine.

Almost all organisms can be cultivated on a large scale, and even vintages can be prepared using chemicals.

There have been several major events in human history, such as drug incidents similar to this one.

There used to be a special drug for treating cancer that was very expensive. People repeatedly asked for a price reduction, but the company was unmoved.

When they cried out in a hurry, they just said that the research and development was too expensive and the raw materials of the medicine were too high.

But after investigation, it was found that the material cost of this drug was only a few cents per pill, and even the research and development technology they had been advocating was seriously watered down.

It turns out that the key technology of this drug was the result of an old professor, but the old professor did not directly participate in the research and development of the drug, nor did he receive a penny in dividends.

Finally, the old professor could no longer stand the ugly face of the pharmaceutical company, so he fought back and announced that he would ban the company from using his patented technology.

At the same time, the ingredients of the drug were made public so that everyone could produce it. In the end, all the drugs of this company were made public by hackers. Some manufacturers made slight changes and then continued to produce them, forcing the company to go bankrupt.

After this incident, the development and production of drugs must be subject to strict supervision to prevent the emergence of high-priced drugs.

This incident also let people know that except for the first formula which is relatively difficult, the material cost of the medicine is not a problem at present.

After all, energy is cheap now, and biosynthesis technology is not comparable to what it used to be.

No matter how expensive the genetic modification agent is, it is impossible for it to cost 100,000 yuan per portion. In addition, after so many years, the production line and supply system have long been mature.

There is simply no other explanation other than that they want to monopolize resources.

Murong Longfei fully agreed, "Lin Xiao is right. Not only this gene modification agent, but even the advanced exercises are only circulated among the rich. There are also many more supplements and so on, which are simply not accessible to ordinary people."

He had lived in a wealthy area before, so there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Mo Yin's face looked a little unhappy. She was kind-hearted by nature. Although she had encountered some injustice, she remained calm and even wanted to contribute to Blue Star.

Xu Junfei is the same kind of person as her, with a kind heart, but the ironclad facts are right before his eyes and he can't help but believe it.

It turns out that they were not only abandoned on Blue Star by the rich, but were also abandoned thoroughly in other aspects.

Originally, they could barely accept the fact that they could not immigrate on the spacecraft. After all, their roots were on Blue Planet, and the number of places was limited.

But now the rich have restricted them in every aspect, and only give them a little sweetness to make them stay here and resist with their lives.

For a moment, their faith seemed to collapse.

Naturally, Lin Xiao saw all of this. Although he would go to Dark Star, if he did not expose these things, Mo Yin and Xu Junfei would definitely go to Dark Star to resist with all their strength.
