Chapter 200: Chapter 116: Face Swollen from Being Slapped (Fourth Update)
Upon seeing the Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, the white-collar worker immediately got excited and hastily asked, “How much is this Tianyuan Shampoo, and is it authentic?”
“Five hundred US dollars, absolutely genuine. Smell this scent, it’s exactly like the original factory’s. There’s a special substance inside that fake products simply can’t replicate.”
Seeing there was a chance to make a sale, Chiou Russell eagerly opened a bottle and let the other party take a sniff.
“Give me three bottles, no, five bottles.”

Once he’d confirmed it was the real thing, the white-collar didn’t even discuss the price and agreed on the spot, despite it being three times the regular price.
Due to the Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid being taken off the shelves in the United States, the supply had become scarce and the price had risen sharply. You’d want to buy it for five hundred dollars but there was nowhere to get it, which is why the white-collar bought five bottles in one go, fearing he wouldn’t be able to find it later.
Chiou Russell himself couldn’t quite believe how easily he’d made the sale.
This TM seems easier than selling opium, they didn’t even haggle over the price.
After the deal was struck, Chiou Russell took the money and handed over five bottles of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, feeling that money was too easy to make for the first time.
“Could the market for this stuff really be that big?”
Not believing his luck, Chiou Russell went to find other customers.
He approached anyone with thinning hair, regardless of gender, and began to chat and pitch the product.
He was astounded by the outcome of the transactions; the success rate was as high as 70%. The remaining 30% weren’t disinterested buyers; they just didn’t have the money. Yet they still wanted to take his number to call him once they had saved enough to purchase.
By the end of one day of selling, and upon returning to his lodging, Chiou Russell took stock and found that he had sold a grand total of 126 bottles of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, making sixty-three thousand dollars.
His eyes nearly popped out of his head when he saw the number.
You see, his income was linked to the sales volume. Three percent commission was his wage, he made almost two thousand dollars in just one day, which could amount to fifty to sixty thousand dollars a month.
And in the United States, an average middle-class income was around seventy to one hundred and sixty-seventy thousand dollars per year.
If he could continue to sell at these prices and volumes, he’d make sixty to seventy thousand dollars a year, which would definitely put him in the affluent class.
Thinking this, Chiou Russell’s eyes reddened and his breathing grew heavy.
In the past, even though he sold opium, the lion’s share of the profits were devoured by the bosses and his life was only slightly better than average folks, with the risk of literally risking his neck.
But now, selling shampoo could bring such exorbitant profits, and he instantly felt his head heat up, his heart thumping wildly.
This was much quicker money than opium, and without the risks of opium trafficking. Making a fortune was effortlessly simple.
“No wonder the big boss Carter wants us to sell this, it’s practically a money tree!”
Chiou Russell, who had initially complained about Carter’s methods, now realized that selling Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid was basically like stealing money.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and Chiou Russell quickly took inventory of his stock, then called the organization inside Mexico to reserve the next batch of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
“Sell, I’m going to sell it out.”
Chiou Russell danced the samba in excitement in his room. The prospect of becoming wealthy had ignited his once restless heart, filling him with an overwhelming passion for entrepreneurship.
In the following days, Chiou Russell continued to roam the streets, peddling Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
Every day he sold a large amount of product, counting cash until his hands grew tired.
In just three days, he’d sold all the inventory he’d brought and joined some companions to head back to Mexico via the underground tunnel. After handing over the sales proceeds and receiving his commission, he acquired a new batch of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
The generous commissions greatly stimulated these people, who threw themselves into smuggling with even more passion.
Similar actions spread throughout the Tijuana Group, where batches of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid were transported to the United States through underground tunnels.
Then, through various middlemen, the liquid was distributed to the market and, because the quantity was so large, a further-reaching sales network developed.
The middlemen acted as distributors, selling the Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid for a lower price to the locals, who were responsible for the sales.
Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid had once sold up to twenty to thirty million a month in the United States, enough to prove how deeply its powerful effects resonated with people; only those who had lost hair could understand the value of such a product.
Therefore, when Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid re-entered the market, unless consumers were really strapped for cash, they found it hard to refuse the product.
Under these circumstances, the once stagnant market was stirred up once again.
In a short period, after the sales of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid were banned in the United States, it was reborn in an alternative form and found its way again into many households, helping them regain their once youthful hair.
On social media, while people were still debating whether the Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid was truly harmful to health, a new wave of comments flooded in.
‘The newly bought Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid is as good as ever.’
‘Those worried about health have already gone bald, while I’ve long since regained my youthful hair. Keep ranting all you want, just don’t buy it.’
‘Damn, where are you guys buying the Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid from? I want to buy it too, give me the deets!’
‘If you’re losing a lot of hair, just don’t wear a hat when you go out on the street, and you’ll be approached soon enough.’
‘You can add me; I can ship the product quickly.’
‘Go to the busy malls, there are many salespeople there.’
‘Are you all out of your mind? This product was taken off the shelves for a reason, there’s a danger it could harm your health as per government warnings.’
‘You actually support products made in Hua Country, a bunch of traitors who are a disgrace to our United States.’
‘The idiots at the Commerce Department have made fools of themselves already, I’ve been wanting to curse them out. They prohibited a perfectly good hair growth liquid, causing the price to double if I want to buy a bottle now. They should all just drop dead.’
‘Bullshit, you bunch of idiots. What Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid causing harm to health? That’s clearly just an interest group targeting Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, wanting to seize their good product, and deliberately spreading fake news. If it were really harmful, how come I haven’t had any problems after using it for so long?’
‘The miraculous medicine of Hua Country’s traditional medicine, I’m not afraid anyway, I’m going to keep using it, and if you don’t use it, mind your own business.’
The debate raged on the internet, and these conversations made even more people aware of the smuggled Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid on the market, further boosting its sales.
Batch after batch of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid showed up on the market through underground channels, and despite large quantities leading to a price drop, still costing as much as three hundred dollars per bottle, buyers kept streaming in.
As the market was roiled by the impact of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, the distress was widespread.
Major retailers and the tax authorities were the first to panic.
The former, who had made a killing from stocking and selling Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, could only watch as smugglers took their share of profits, causing them intense distress.
The tax authorities were even more furious; when Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid was a hot seller, the taxes paid were calculated in billions per month.
But now, with it being smuggled in, the tax authorities couldn’t collect a dime in taxes, and it was said that the head of the tax authorities was so angry, he couldn’t even eat.
The anger extended beyond just these entities; Tianyuan Daily completely disregarded the hearings requested by the United States Commerce Department and continued to sell Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid within the country through smuggling, effectively slapping them in the face.
Furthermore, the bragging by internet users on social platforms about obtaining Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid from the Black Market was like one slap after another on the face of the Commerce Department, drawing many onlookers who came with their popcorn to watch the Eagle being laughed at.
