Chapter 1245
"What's the matter with you guys? Why aren't you answering me?"
After entering the laboratory, Austin asked again, "You’re all professionals and have been in this
industry for decades. Why are you letting yourself get tangled up in a woman's web? Are you no better
than a woman?"
"Mr. Fike, it's not that we're underestimating ourselves. Ms. Christian has the capabilities we don't have
in this area. Sometimes we don’t even know why the experiments fail. However, Ms. Christian found
the crux immediately. Just a simple sentence from her can change the final results quite drastically,"
someone answered.
Everyone admired Lily for the skills she had. Her presence convinced them that this project could be a
success. Therefore, when they heard that she was pulling out, they took a blow to their morale.
"Hmph!" Austin snorted disapprovingly. ' You can't find the crux because you're incompetent. It's not
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbecause of how good she is. If the experiment fails, keep trying! It's not that hard to adjust the steps
accordingly. It's obvious you guys are just slackers."
"Mr. Fike, if that's the case, show US what adjustments we can make. After all, we're incompetent.
We're running out of options," another person called out with a hint of anger, putting his hands up in
surrender.
The people in charge had selected those working on this project to be here. They would feel upset if
anyone called them incompetent.
"I don't think any adjustments are needed at all!" Austin glanced lightly at the test tubes on the
experiment table and then at the computer screen.
"In my opinion, the unique scent of the medicinal herbs is representative of itself. Mixing it with all sorts
of commercial herbs would pollute it. We should keep the medicinal herbs as pure as possible." His
face was disdainful as he tried to throw the project out the window.
Hearing this, everyone exchanged blank glances in dismay.
At this time, Professor Thompson, who had been in the innermost part of the laboratory, came out. He
had probably heard Austin's last sentence. Professor Thompson looked at Austin and said, "Austin!
When did you arrive? Perfect timing. I was just about to look for you."
Then Thompson put his arms around Austin's shoulders, walked him to the door, turned around as if
remembering something, and called out, "What are you all doing just standing there? Hurry up and get
back to work. Even if it fails, record every failed data. Remember, failure is the mother of success!"
With him stepping in to smooth things over, the others turned around and returned to work.
"Professor Thompson, I feel like this experiment is meaningless. We should sell our medicinal herbs
authentically and not let the commercial perfumes oppress US instead of engaging in these elaborate
and dubious things!" Austin frowned as he complained.
My boy, science has no limits. Since it is scientific research, how can you say it's elaborate and
dubious?" Thompson patted Austin's shoulders. Thompson's hair was already graying, and his glasses
were extremely thick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a sigh, he continued, "I know you're passionate about medicinal herbs and want the world to know
about them. Since that’s the case, that’ll be our attempt to break into the public!
"Look, not many enjoy taking medicinal herbs. You may ask because the treatment takes too long, and
the effect is slow. Some just can't accept the smell of the herbs. However, everyone loves perfumes,
essential oils, and all sorts of other fragrances. Even men are using colognes. That’s because they
smell good and are more acceptable!
"We're now integrating our medicinal herbs into those products so more people can accept them. Then
as they spray these perfumes throughout the day, they would easily complete the treatment course
without realizing it. It'll be able to maintain the consumers' health as well. Wouldn't it be an epoch-
making product in human history?"
Austin frowned when he heard this and shook his head. "I don't think so, Professor Thompson. There
are so many different types of medicinal herbs. It'll be challenging to integrate every single one of them.
"On top of that, people are never satisfied. They may like it this once, but what about the next time?
We're wasting countless human resources, materials, and money on this project. It's all a huge waste!"
