evening.
Porter had already arranged for Ten Thousand Armies’ financial staff to complete the money transfer
immediately, and Sayid had personally started preparing for the release of the men, expecting to transport all
fifteen thousand men to Damascus as early as in the Porter planned to let the fifteen thousand soldiers from Ten
Thousand take a week's vacation first. So, they would be allowed to return to their respective countries of
permanent residence from Damascus by plane to take a good rest before he would then arrange their next tasks
after a week.
Charlie did not have any opinion on his arrangements and so, he allowed Porter to make his own full
arrangements.
Since then, all the important issues in the Middle East had been satisfactorily resolved. As for how high Porter
could lead Ten Thousand Armies, the future would mainly depend on himself.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Liam arrived in Washington with twenty boxes of the Apothecary
Restoration Pills.
Upon getting off the plane, he immediately contacted the public relations company responsible for pulling

the strings and made an appointment with the head of the FDA to have dinner.
The other party had only promised to cout for a meal without committing to solving any problems, and Liam
had paid fifty thousand US dollars for this.
Out of that fifty thousand US dollars, the public relations company would earn twenty thousand US dollars, and
the remaining thirty thousand US dollars would go into the pocket of the person in charge.
In the United States, this kind of thing was a very common gray operation. It was in an ambiguous area in
between the normal and illegal zone and so, it was also a means for the public officials in the United States to
generate income.
The first thing that Liam wanted to do was to push the Apothecary Restoration Pill to the other party as much as
he possibly could during the duration of this meal. He would then try to convince the other party to do a drug
test of the Apothecary Restoration Pill. If it was determined that there were no toxic side effects, they could then
do a small-scale clinical trial so that they would be able to see the effects of the Apothecary Restoration Pill soon.
Once they were sure that the Apothecary Restoration Pill really had a good therapeutic effect on cancer, they
would naturally realize the great value of this medicine, and this would also increase the awareness and
recognition of The Apothecary Pharmaceutical. In order to minimize the risk as much as possible, the public
relations company chose the place for the meal to be arranged in a small restaurant that they had opened
themselves.
This small restaurant was located in
the suburbs of Washington and was
advertised to the public as a full membership restaurant. Therefore, it only served its own members and had
permanently closed the
so-called new member registration channel just to facilitate the public relations company to organize and
arrange this special meeting.
When Liam arrived at the restaurant, the person in charge of the meeting with him had not arrived yet.
A public relations person dressed as a waiter said to him, "Mr. Weaver, Mr. Smith is a little delayed, and it will
probably take him another twenty minutes to arrive. So, please sit down and wait for a moment." Liam nodded
gently and sat down first under the other party's arrangement.
Twenty minutes passed, but the other party still did not appear.
The public relations officer then told him that the other party might take another twenty minutes or so.
Although Liam was a little anxious, he still agreed to it. However, he did not expect that even after waiting for an
hour and a half, the other party still had not arrived.
After waiting for two hours, the other party finally arrived.

The public relations officer brought him over to Liam and introduced, "Mr. Weaver, this is Mr. Jameson Smith."
The person called Jameson was a middle-aged American man in his forties, and when he saw Liam, he said with
sembarrassment, m sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Weaver. There was something at hthat |
needed to take care of."
Jameson looked rather embarrassed. His hair was a little messy, and the first button of his shirt had disappeared,
leaving only a short thread in its place. His tie also seemed to have been ripped open, twisted, and wrapped in
his suit. Liam was a little surprised.
He felt that a person of Smith's level was definitely a member of high society in the United States, and he was
probably also a member of stop circles. After all, he had a lot of power in his hands and held a high social
status.
People like this considered
themselves to be gentlemen and so,
they paid great attention to their
personal appearance, dressing and behavior. They would often be very elegant, and they would not allow even a
single strand of their hair to be out of place. On the contrary, Jameson looked like a
down-to-earth insurance salesman.
This made Liam speculate that Jameson must have encountered something complicated.
