Richest Rag-picker

Time passed slowly. About an hour later, almost everyone had gotten back to their feet.

He took them out for a walk and then to the training grounds to spar for a bit. To his surprise, every single one of them was more than ten times stronger than before.

Furthermore, Fang Chenyi made another startling discovery: all of these men were even stronger than Han Licheng.

Not only that, but there was a pattern. The later someone woke up, the stronger they were compared to those who had woken up earlier.

'What on earth is going on?' Fang Chenyi was puzzled, but he couldn't figure it out right away.

He told them all to go rest, but they insisted they were brimming with energy and didn't need to rest at all.

At this, Fang Chenyi simply smiled and shook his head, then turned to Qi Xiaotian. "Let's continue, then."

With that, Qi Xiaotian ran out. About half an hour later, another 50 crew members were assembled outside.

The first batch of 50 awakened crew members now served as security.

Sitting back down behind the small table, Fang Chenyi thought for a moment. He decided to just pull out the woven sack, find a tray, and place all 50 Medicine Pills on it.

After all, taking them out of the sack one by one like before was inconvenient, and it might arouse suspicion.

With everything ready, he began the work of distributing the Medicine Pills and performing the Celestial Gods' brainwashing.

One person, two people, five people.

Time ticked by, and soon, ten people were lying on the cots in the training room.

Just as the eleventh person came in, a huge, black head suddenly poked furtively through the doorway.

Upon seeing Fang Chenyi inside, the owner of the big head broke into a wide grin. Before the security at the door could stop it, the creature barged right in.

It was none other than Vajra.

Fang Chenyi was both exasperated and amused by the creature's arrival. He poked Vajra on the head and said,

"Why aren't you staying put outside? What are you doing in here?"

Vajra, however, paid Fang Chenyi's words no mind. His eyes lit up, especially when he saw the many tasty treats laid out on the table in front of Fang Chenyi.

He propelled himself forward with his hands and rushed toward Fang Chenyi. The next moment, he grabbed a handful of chocolates from the table, stuffed them into his mouth, and began chewing loudly. CRUNCH, CRUNCH.

Watching Vajra enjoying the snack, Fang Chenyi was again left exasperated. It couldn't be helped; the creature was like a child, completely rooted to the spot at the sight of good food.

With a helpless wave of his hand, he pulled a handful of beef jerky from his pocket.

"Here, take this and eat it outside. I've still got work to do. Go play with Er Gouzi."

The moment Vajra saw the beef jerky, his big eyes filled with excitement.

Forgetting the chocolates in his hand, he snatched the beef jerky and started to run outside. But suddenly, his gaze drifted to a small tray on Fang Chenyi's right.

He saw a handful of small, round things on it. His mind worked fast. 'Something set aside like this must be even tastier than that big pile of stuff!'

And so, without a second thought, he grabbed a handful and shoved them into his mouth.

After stuffing them in his mouth, he turned and ran for the door, beef jerky still clutched in his other hand.

The creature was incredibly fast. By the time Fang Chenyi realized what was happening, it was too late to stop him. With a single GULP, Vajra swallowed the entire mouthful of Medicine Pills.

"Fuck! What are you doing?! Spit it out! Now!"

Fang Chenyi's heart leaped into his throat. 'Just one of those things is incredibly potent. After eating a whole handful, won't he just explode and die?!'

Truth be told, Fang Chenyi's bond with Vajra was incredibly deep. He had never thought of Vajra as a pet or an animal, but as a brother.

That was why, seeing Vajra stuff a handful of the pills into his mouth, Fang Chenyi's heart was in his throat, terrified that Vajra would explode and die at any second.

Vajra, however, thought nothing of it. Hearing Fang Chenyi's shouts, he thought the man regretted giving him the beef jerky and ran even faster. He reached the door in just a few steps, but before he could pull it open, he collapsed to the ground with a heavy THUD.

"Vajra!"

Seeing this, Fang Chenyi cried out and rushed toward him.

When he reached him, he saw Vajra lying face-down on the ground, his eyes shut tight. The beef jerky he'd been holding had been flung far away.

Now Fang Chenyi was truly panicking. He quickly shouted to the men at the door to come in and help.

But before they could respond, the door clicked open.

Qi Xiaotian ran in, a worried look on his face.

When he saw Vajra sprawled on the floor, he didn't assume anything was wrong, thinking the big ape was just being stubborn and refusing to leave.

However, when he saw that Vajra wasn't moving at all, he asked in confusion,

"Brother Fang, what's wrong with Vajra? The moment I went to the bathroom, he snuck in."

It was just as Qi Xiaotian said. Vajra had been loitering by the door for a while, but with Qi Xiaotian standing guard—and knowing he couldn't win a fight against him—he hadn't dared to get close. The moment Qi Xiaotian left, Vajra seized the opportunity to rush inside.

The guards at the door were no match for him, of course; he'd swatted them aside with a few quick moves.

Furthermore, both Fang Chenyi and Qi Xiaotian had given strict orders: no one was to enter this room unless summoned by Fang Chenyi.

That was why no one had chased after him. Instead, after Vajra forced his way in, they had run to get Qi Xiaotian.

Fang Chenyi was too frantic to care why Vajra had gotten in. Besides, knowing Vajra's mischievous nature, he couldn't blame anyone else.

He hurriedly called to Qi Xiaotian, "Quick, lend a hand! Get a few more guys in here to lift him onto one of the cots!"

Hearing their boss's summons, several security guards from the door rushed over.

With everyone pitching in, they finally managed to turn Vajra over. But when they got him to the side of a cot, they discovered to their dismay that it couldn't possibly support his weight.

With no other choice, someone had to quickly find some cushions to place on the floor before they could finally lay Vajra down flat.

Once Vajra was settled, Fang Chenyi quickly felt for his pulse.

THUMP-THUMP-THUMP-THUMP.

The moment Fang Chenyi's hand touched Vajra's wrist, he found that the creature's pulse was abnormally strong.
