Chapter 71 Buying A Villa
In the days following the press conference, Wonderzac Refining Ointment and the Wonderzac Group became the word of mouth. The public became keen on purchasing their products.
With the support of big shots like Henric, many people believed in their product. Apart from personal buyers, many pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies were also interested in their products. As a result, all the stocks Wonderzac Group had saved were cleared out in a short amount of time. Lauren had to ask the factories to quicken their pace so that they could increase their production. When Zachary came face to face with Jimmy during the press conference and switched out his medication for chocolate, he managed to reveal to the public how Huang Group's medications were fake. This story was spread across the pharmaceutical industry like fire.
As a matter of fact, Huang Group and Ludington Medical College who were present as an opponent of Wonderzac Group were being scorned and torn down for their actions. The pharmaceutical companies under Huang Group were drastically affected and lost a huge chunk of profit.
Alan and Jimmy's status among the university students dropped as they committed fraud. Apart from that, they were also severely criticized by their superiors. In the end, Alan had to reach out to many of his connections to preserve his place as the principal.
With the increased sales of the refining ointment, Zachary could finally relax and not worry about the money. Especially with the support of big companies like the Ricardo Group, which would transfer the payment to Wonderzac Group immediately after signing the contract.
Even if all three hundred thousand boxes of refining ointment were sold at their lowest price and they took into account the additional resale price of two hundred, they would have a profit of sixty million yuan. This was definitely a huge number, especially for someone like Zachary.
Of course, he had to deduct the cost of the raw materials, workers' wages, factory rental, advertising, and designing. Their final profit would still be around forty million. For a newly established company like Wonderzac Group, this had eased their financial burden.
Although this amount was no match for bigger companies like Huang Group and Domino Pharma, which probably earned billions of yuan, Wonderzac Group was progressing at a very fast pace. The offline and online sales were increasing by the minute, and it looked like they were going to join the race in becoming a fierce competitor in the industry.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
If the profits were distributed according to the percentage of shares owned, Zachary now had forty-four million under his name, which would make him a wealthy man.
However, he never had a special attachment to money. He kept one million yuan personally and left the rest to Lauren.
After all, their company was developing rapidly. They needed more funds to increase their production and hire more manpower. Plus, Lauren didn't want to continue renting the factory any longer. She wanted to build their own Wonderzac Group factory, and this was evidently a huge investment. She couldn't feel completely assured if they didn't own a factory after all.
With all the money on his hands, Zachary thought that he should probably find a place of his own and move out.
First off, Maxwell's place was pretty far from Wonderzac Group's office, so it made traveling to his office everyday very inconvenient.
The other problem was that he needed a place with more greenery to improve his Shannon Herbal Skill. When he trains, something weird would usually occur, and he wasn't prepared to reveal his secret just yet. That night, Zachary told Maxwell and Vanessa about his plans. They were disappointed that he was going to leave, but they told him to come back and visit them often. Of course, he said yes.
Now that Zachary had the money, it was easy for him to find a place. Especially since he knew Henric, who was the boss of a real estate company, which made it all the more convenient.

Zachary gave Henric a call and told him about his plans of buying a house. He asked Henric to give him a few suggestions based on his needs.
Henric was very focused on fulfilling Zachary's wish. On that afternoon itself, Henric called Zachary back to tell him he had found the ideal place for him. He asked his son, Noah, to bring Zachary over to have a look.
Shortly, Zachary saw Noah's car pulling into the driveway. He was dressed in a simple yet elegant white suit. Unlike Fabian, who was also the second generation of a rich family, Noah was more laidback. There weren't any bodyguards who arrived with him, and the car he drove was just a regular Mercedes. To the normal eye, a Mercedes was a high-end car, but compared to Fabian's luxury sports cars, it was considered low-profile.
When Noah saw Zachary again, he greeted him with a polite but not overly-friendly smile. His expression gave off a warmth that made others around him feel comfortable.
Zachary got into the backseat as Noah drove him. It wasn't easy for anyone in Ludington City to experience this type of treatment.
But under Zachary's sharp eyes, he noticed there were a few cars in the traffic that were following them. Thankfully, these cars didn't seem to have any ill intentions, so they were probably Noah's bodyguards.
As both of them chatted, Noah seemed to treat Zachary as he normally would. However, if Zachary looked closer, he'd realize that Noah's attitude was slightly different from their last encounter.
Even though he had helped Zachary in the past, it was merely because Henric asked him to. But now, Wonderzac Group had grown from zero to a nationally renowned company. This piqued Noah's interest and made him see Zachary in a different light. After all, a person who could pull off something like that must be very skilled.
They didn't talk too much on their way there. After an hour's drive, they finally arrived at a residential area. Looking around, Zachary could see that there were many villas located between the mountains and rivers. The scenery was pretty amazing.

Seeing that the company's young boss was the one who personally brought the guest, the staff were astonished and puzzled at the same time. With a smile on their faces, they began to enthusiastically introduce Zachary about the villa. The villa covered an area of more than two hundred square meters and had two floors. The interior design was simple and spacious. In front of the villa was a small forest, and behind it was a clear river flowing through the whole neighborhood. The plus factor was the beautiful view it came with.
The highlight was that it also came with a small garden that had a few plants and trees. Zachary was very impressed, as this would be a good place for him to train his Shannon Herbal Skill.
In the end, Zachary immediately decided that he would buy this house. Noah smiled and asked the staff to take care of all the documents for Zachary. The final price of the villa was set at five hundred thousand dollars.
Zachary knew that the real price of this villa was definitely way above that. This was a token of friendship from Henric. Seeing how Henric and he were close and taking into account how Ricardo Pharma and Wonderzac Group were going to be business partners in the future, Zachary accepted his act of kindness.
After signing the deed, Noah asked the staff to note down all the furniture and decorations that Zachary needed. That way, they could buy everything and install it for him as soon as possible.
The thing that Zachary was most concerned about was the garden. There were only a few plants and flowers, and many of them had withered in the winter season. To prep for his cultivation, he had to plant a lot more herbs.
Of course, this could only be done by Zachary himself. The weather right now was unsuitable for any plants, so it had to be delayed until a later time.
