999 Conspiracy Up in the North (1/2)
”Having some connections over there would make it easier to get over the related procedures,” Zheng Weijun said. ”Furthermore, with transportation being so convenient these days, getting there and back would be easy as well.”
He intended to get a base for cultivating wild herbs en masse in Qi Province, but he was not all that familiar with the place. Doing so in Qi Province would have been more costly than to just do it in Wannan. He did not have enough funds to do it the expensive way.
”I plan to continue building our own base for cultivating wild herbs near Qi Province, at the northeast side of the country.”
”Alright, I'll keep my hands off of this department,” Wang Yao said. ”The requirement stays the same—guaranteed quality of the herbs harvested.”
”No need to worry about that.” Zheng Weijun smiled and said, ”I guarantee that there will be no problem with that.”
Zheng Weijun stayed in the clinic for a bit longer before taking his leave.
In a mansion in Haiqu…
”Are you looking for me, Sir?” Xu Xinyuan asked.
”The things down in southern Yunnan have been taken care of,” Guo Zhenghe said as he poured a cup of tea for Xu Xinyuan. ”We can move on to the second phase.”
”That fast?”
”Sooner is better than later since things are getting unpredictable,” Guo Zhenghe said after taking a sip of tea.
”Alright, I'll get to it right away,” Xu Xinyuan said.
When Xu Xinyuan got to the door, Guo Zhenghe called out, ”Uncle Xu.”
”Is there anything else, Sir?”
”Just be careful out there,” Guo Zhenghe said. ”You don't need to do everything on your own.”
”Aye, you can rest assured about that,” Xu Xinyuan said as he walked out of the door.
It's beginning! Guo Zhenghe stood up and looked out the window at the sea far away.
He had not been back to He County in about two weeks.
Once we get a good grasp of things, everything should be settled over there.
On the southern mountain in the northern village…
Salvia, the fruit of Chinese Magnoliavine, Dendrobium, Cordyceps, Glossy Ganoderma, Panax Notoginseng...
Wang Yao was trying to produce a type of medicine capable of improving blood circulation and stabilizing the heart, mostly for tackling cardiovascular illnesses. The effects would have been better with magic herbs like Ziyu and Everlasting Grass added to the mix, but mass-producing such medicine required them in quantities too large for him to provide.
Oh right. He suddenly thought of something and picked up the phone to call Zheng Weijun.
”Please hold on. OK, yeah, right, I'll think about it and get back to you about that.” Zheng Weijun, who was on the other side of the phone, was apparently very interested about the matter as well.
Wang Yao wrote down the medicines he had picked, but the quantity was lacking.
It took Wang Yao the whole morning to categorize, bake, crush, or divide the herbs.
The clinic remained open to patients in the afternoon.
Several patients showed up that day. They were all suffering from common illnesses, such as back pain or fever.
As the evening approached, Zhong Liuchuan, Jia Zizai, and Hu Mei went to the clinic.
”Master.”
”How are you people feeling?” Wang Yao asked.
”Man, very good,” Jia Zizai said. ”In fact, I probably couldn't feel any better!”
The three people had been taking their medicines on alternating days. They had each taken seven doses of the solution made specifically to strengthen their bodies the past several days. They felt like their bodies were filled with energy. It enabled them to become tireless and always high-spirited.
”Come, let me have a look.”
Wang Yao checked their pulses.
”Well, the medicine is weakening,” he said.
The effects of the medicine weakened as they continued taking it. Besides, it was impossible for them to just kept being enhanced without a limit. If that happened, they would become supermen impervious to all forms of weaponry or energy fluctuations.
”Alright, we'll skip the medication for the time being.”
”OK, sure.”
The four of them drank tea and chatted in the clinic for a bit. Before long, Zheng Weijun rushed into the clinic. He seemed to like coming at such a time.
”Master, I've thought out the matter you spoke about,” he said. ”There were no problems with it.”
On the phone earlier that day, Wang Yao had talked about producing some higher-end medicines to serve as a branch of Nanshan Pharmaceutical Company, just like clients were categorized between common clients and VIP ones. Furthermore, the amount of new medicine to be produced would have to remain small. Their production required magic herbs, which were main ingredients found only in the herbal field on the southern mountain.
”Will there be any problem with the procedures?” Wang Yao asked.
”There won't be,” Zheng Weijun said. ”I got that part figured out when doing the registration.”
”Alright, that's good to hear,” Wang Yao said. ”In that case, keep Nanshan Pharmaceutical Company in the title, but add Nanshan Clinic to it on top. I'll let you handle the details with packaging. As for the medicine, I'll take care of that. I'll be crafting the first batch of medicine personally.”
”Good, good,” Zheng Weijun immediately said.
Zheng Weijun was very happy when he left the clinic.
Both the common medicines and specialized ones complemented each other. He was filled with hope and faith for the future of Nanshan Pharmaceutical Company.
In the Valley of Thousands of Medicines in southern Yunnan, thousands of miles away…
Miao Xihe quietly stared outside.
Several of his trusted people stood by his side. They were the people whose loyalty to him was absolute.
Another dire event happened in their village. One of their own found dead. It was a warrior and one who was armed with firearms.
”Was it someone from the narcotics division?” Miao Xihe asked.
