Chapter 202: Chapter 118: Not Qualified to Interfere With Me (Second Update)
The statement from the United States floated across the ocean, and in today’s highly developed global information society, it quickly topped the trending searches on Weibo.
Facing the accusations and fines from the United States, Tianyuan Daily also released an announcement.
“Regarding the smuggling allegations made by the United States, we were completely unaware. Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid is only sold by our company, and where the buyers transport it to after the sale is entirely their own business.
Additionally, we would like to kindly remind you that smuggling is rampant within the United States and perhaps you should start by looking within, to see if there is something wrong on your end. Otherwise, why don’t other countries have smuggling issues?
As for the fine, we are a Hua Country enterprise, and you, the United States, have no jurisdiction over us.”
This tough announcement caused a sensation in Hua Country, and the netizens were overjoyed.
Prince Cookies: Tianyuan Daily is awesome, this is the first time I’ve seen such a tough Hua enterprise, and just for that, I support them.
Humans Don’t Deserve Luo Ji: The logic of the old robbers in the United States, claiming health hazards without a shred of evidence.
Mao Lian: Turns out there’s the smuggling route, all I can say is Tianyuan Daily did a beautiful job.
Drunken, Listening to Rain Tower: The announcement by Tianyuan Daily is so arrogant! It’s as if they’re saying, “I just love how you hate me but can’t do anything about it.”
Napoleon Loves Noodles: Even your American public is snapping up Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, which proves the product is genuinely good. Why not just open up the market? At least then you could collect some taxes.
Smiling Fish nn: To the comment above, do you think we in the United States are shameless? We just blocked and removed the product, and now you want us to lift restrictions under the pretext of smuggling. What will Europe think of us? What will Russia think of us? What will our allies think of us?
Qingshan Escapee: I support the United States in strictly punishing Tianyuan Daily, such an unscrupulous company should be banned sooner. Everyone should support the judgment of the United States Commerce Department, the beacon of freedom and democracy, can’t be wrong.
Momo’s Cat: The know-it-all above should get lost, if you like it so much, go wash dishes over there yourself.
Frenzy Chemistry Class Representative: So-called free trade is just a joke. The United States doesn’t even follow its own rules. When losing in business competition, just impose sanctions, number one in double standards.
The discussions continued online, with the majority of Hua Country people supporting Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
With over eighty million users in Hua Country, the product has a large fan base. Plus, it’s a fight against America, which really excites everyone, eager to watch the United States’ bustle.
However, these various discussions did not stop the actions of the United States, which has long been accustomed to being criticized by others.
Under pressure from the United States, particularly with the increase of tariffs on Mexican goods, within three days, Mexico was forced to declare a ban on Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
At the same time, at the US-Mexico border, US police also stepped up their search and patrol efforts against smuggling, working hard to crack down on the issue.
…
Ten days later.
In Mexico, Te Lu City.
Inside a villa, Su Jie sat on a sofa, flipping through a newspaper.
The newspaper had excerpts from the speech by the President of Mexico, which was about banning the circulation and importation of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid.
“Mr. Su, the day before yesterday one of our underground tunnels was discovered. The US police blew up the tunnel and seized a batch of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, capturing quite a few of our people.
Moreover, Mexico has enforced the ban, and now it’s very difficult for us to bring Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid into the country by sea. Several ships carrying the liquid have been seized.”
Next to the sofa, Carter bent down, cautiously reporting on the recent news from the Tijuana Group.
These developments were highly disadvantageous for the current situation in Tijuana, for with the opium business canceled, the group relied entirely on profits from Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid. In the short term, this blockade might have been inconsequential, but the longer it lasted, the more troublesome it would become.
Su Jie put down the newspaper and said, “Two things, go to Putu Logistics’ number eight warehouse. There, you will find a batch of hair growth original fluid for Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid. Follow the instructions and use some small factories for bottling. On Mexico’s side, spend some money on customs. We’ve made so much, it’s enough to shut their mouths.”
For the current predicament, Su Jie had long made preparations.
He had transported a batch of hair growth original fluid in advance with a Storage Bag, planning to produce and sell it directly in Mexico. After all, this substance didn’t require high production technology or conditions. As long as the hair growth original fluid was in place, any other Material could be processed in just about any small factory.
And there was no need to worry too much about Mexico’s blockade orders.
The somewhat chaotic system in Mexico, where bribery was rampant, proclaimed prohibitions. However, under the onslaught of money, the actual enforcement of these orders was questionable.
Through these two preparations, most of the blockade could be neutralized.
“Mr. Su, did you anticipate this all along?”
Carter was somewhat shocked. Su Jie’s words clearly indicated he had been prepared.
Su Jie smiled, took out another map, and said lightly, “The Americans want to take over my business. Naturally, I won’t just sit back and wait. Take this map. Everywhere marked on it represents a newly opened underground tunnel along the US-Mexico Border, enough for you to smuggle and counter the US police’s crackdown.”
“All of these… are?”
Carter’s eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing the dozens of marked underground tunnels on the map.
How was this achieved? The Tijuana Group had toiled for over a decade to establish only seven or eight smuggling tunnels, and discovering each one resulted in severe losses.
Because underground tunnels are difficult and time-consuming to construct, there was the risk of collapses besides the physical and labor-intensive work involved.
Underground tunnels had always been one of the most important assets for drug lords on the Mexico side.
Whoever controlled more tunnels commanded a larger share of the opium market.
“Keep these to yourself and don’t let me find you smuggling opium through them, or…”
Su Jie’s voice was cold. To him, creating underground tunnels with the thousand-hand centipede was easy, far more effective than any tunnel-boring machine.
Just one drilling operation was all it took to smoothly carve out an underground tunnel several meters wide. It was impossible for US police to block the smuggling routes completely.
“Absolutely not. Right now, selling Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid is more profitable than opium. No one will abandon the main pursuit for something less important,” Carter assured, his face pale. He knew all too well how ruthless Su Jie’s methods were. He had been working diligently for a while now, for he feared walking down the street might end with his head being blown off.
Because of his fear, he sometimes felt like he was developing a psychological shadow.
He always sensed that in the darkness, several pairs of eyes were watching him, no matter what he did.

In reality, Carter’s feeling was not misplaced. Only, the eyes watching him were not those of snipers, but insects controlled by the Insect Control Technique.
With Su Jie’s current Spiritual Power, he kept half of Te Lu City under surveillance, keeping an eye on the Tijuana Group’s every move. Carter couldn’t hide any small actions from him.
