“I just arrived at Beijiang. If things are going well, it should be time.”

Fang Qiu responded and then added, “I’m on my way to the cultivation base. I’ll call you when I get to the base.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for your good news.”

Yang Ningyuan laughed with satisfaction.

He hung up.

Fang Qiu took a taxi and rushed to the cultivation base.

When he arrived at the base, he found that the staff of the cultivation base was harvesting the Desert Cistanche under the guidance of Zhao Shanlin.

“Are they mature?”

Fang Qiu felt overjoyed when he entered the base.

The cultivation base was located in a remote place, so there were very few cars or pedestrians. Therefore, as soon as the taxi arrived, it attracted Zhao Shanlin’s attention.

Catching sight of Fang Qiu, Zhao Shanlin immediately came up to him.

“Isn’t the school holiday just over? Why are you here all of a sudden?”

Zhao Shanlin asked.

“I calculated the time and figured that the first batch of Desert Cistanche should be mature, so I came to have a look.”

After saying that, Fang Qiu added, “Well, I just got off the plane and Yang Ningyuan has already called to ask about the supply time.”

“Haha.”

Zhao Shanlin laughed and said, “It’s just the right time. The first batch of Desert Cistanche is a great harvest!”

“Let me have a look.”

Fang Qiu nodded with a smile and stepped into the cultivation area.

“It is still a little small.”

Gazing at Desert Cistanche being picked by the workers, Fang Qiu said with some regret.

“This is not considered small.”

Zhao Shanlin shook his head and said, “These Desert Cistanches are already very big. Of course, the older they grow, the better their efficacy will be. However, there is no need to think about the efficacy of the Desert Cistanche we grow. Even those old plants that have been growing for 20 or 30 years may not be as good as our plants. Although they don’t look big, they are not small either. If they are wild Desert Cistanche, it is good that they were able to grow from seedlings in such a short time.”

“Mr. Zhao, what I mean is that if the Desert Cistanche is a bit bigger, our company’s profits will be a bit higher.”

Fang Qiu asked with a smile, “Is there any other chance to make it grow bigger without losing any of its property?”

“No.”

Zhao Shanlin immediately shook his head and said, “All the methods related to making it ripen faster will cause great harm to the medicine itself. Haste makes waste.”

“However, there are no absolute rules.”

Speaking of this, Zhao Shanlin grinned and added, “Although I don’t have the method now, let me study it for a while. Maybe I can find out more.”

“Thank you very much, Mr. Zhao.”

Fang Qiu nodded with a smile.

“That’s what I should do.”

Zhao Shanlin responded and said, “You can watch here. I have to supervise these workers. I can’t let them spoil my plants. And I also need to prepare for the preservation.”

“You don’t have to store it.”

Fang Qiu thought for a moment and said, “I’ll go to the warehouse to have a look. If it’s almost the same, I’ll call the truck directly and supply the first batch. After all, I’ve collected the deposit.”

“That will do. Desert Cistanche in the field can be collected in two hours at most. You can take them out when the time comes.”

As soon as Zhao Shanlin finished speaking, he immediately went to supervise the workers.

Looking at Zhao Shanlin’s back, Fang Qiu was glad that he had found such a good partner.

Not only was he skilled, but he was also extremely responsible for the Desert Cistanche that he cultivated. With such a partner, they were bound to succeed.

Fang Qiu believed that even if there was no terrain, with Zhao Shanlin’s strength and great responsibility, he would definitely be able to establish the company!

After Zhao Shanlin left, Fang Qiu immediately strode toward the warehouse.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the warehouse, a burst of anxious cries could be heard.

“Coo, coo…”

It was the Tianshan Rat Hare.

Hearing the little fellow’s cries, Fang Qiu quickly stepped into the warehouse, for fear that the little fellow would be brash enough to secretly eat Desert Cistanche in the warehouse.

When he walked into the warehouse, he found that the little fellow was running back and forth in front of the shelf where the Desert Cistanche was stored. It cried out anxiously as if its treasure had been taken away.

Fang Qiu could not help but chuckle when he saw that.

“Coo, coo, coo…”

Hearing Fang Qiu’s laughter, the Tianshan Rat Hare turned its head. When it saw Fang Qiu, it kicked its strong hind legs and immediately jumped in front of Fang Qiu. It stretched out its short forelimb, pointed at the Desert Cistanche being picked and cried out loudly.

“Okay, I know.”

Fang Qiu squatted down and looked at the little hare with a smile. Then he reached out to point at the harvested plants and said, “These things were originally planted to be sold, not for you.”

“Coo, coo, coo!”

Upon hearing this, the little hare immediately straightened up and put on a very domineering look. It pointed to the outside and cried out as if it were saying that if it weren’t for me, those poisonous insects would have eaten up all these Desert Cistanche!

“Don’t worry.”

Fang Qiu reached out and patted the hare’s head, saying, “These things can be planted again. We will have more after they are picked up. After we finish collecting it and send it away, the new batch will soon be planted. At that time, you can still eat it. And I will definitely keep some for you to ensure that you get to eat it every day for the next few days. What do you think?”

“Coo…”

The little hare nodded and then pointed to the ground outside.

“Don’t worry. The ones in the middle will not be picked. It will not affect your sleep.”

Fang Qiu said.

Hearing these words, the little hare turned his head and unwillingly glanced at the full shelves. After that, it jumped all the way out and went to sleep.

After he comforted the little hare, Fang Qiu glanced around the warehouse and then called Yang Ningyuan.

“Mr. Fang, how is it?”

Yang Ningyuan’s teasing voice came from the other end of the phone.

“We have harvested a lot from the cultivation base. It’s estimated that we can deliver them in two hours. You can prepare for it. I guess you can start work tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

Fang Qiu said.

“Okay.”

Yang Ningyuan said in surprise, “You should know that the pharmaceutical factory has been suspended for nearly a month and the workers can hardly wait any longer. Now there’s finally news. I’ll tell the news to the workers of the factory and ask them to make preparations first. They need to check the equipment and set up the production line!”

He hung up.

The two of them started their work.

Fang Qiu found a big truck and watched it carry away the Desert Cistanche. On the other side, Yang Ningyuan started informing the employees of the pharmaceutical factory to collect data about the factory, test the machines of the factory and so on.

The workers who had stopped their work for a month, were jubilant and excited when they heard that they could start working.

The company’s business had been in a mess for so long and they were worried that they would lose their jobs and would not be able to support their families. Now they were finally reassured. At least they were able to keep their jobs.

The trucks carrying the Desert Cistanche drove into the pharmaceutical factory.

All the departments in the factory also began operations and started to process the herbs.

That night, Fang Qiu came to the factory with Yang Ningyuan to have a look at the first batch of Trillium Root-Securing Pill that had just been produced.

Although since the beginning of the announcement, the pills had nothing to do with Fang Qiu.

But Fang Qiu was also well aware.

Sooner or later, his identity as the supplier would be made public.

Therefore, no matter what it took, he had to thoroughly examine the effects of this Trillium Root-Securing Pill to see if it would work.

They arrived at the pharmaceutical factory.

Fang Qiu accompanied Yang Ning to walk around the factory. When they arrived at the finished product package area, he picked up a box of the packed Trillium Root-Securing Pill and scrutinized it.

It turned out that the serial number on the package was not the number of the medicine.

“Why is this serial number for the health product but not for the medicine?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“Do you think it’s easy to get the serial number for the medicine?”

Yang Ningyuan shook his head and said, “It’s very troublesome to make the new medicine. It will take at least a few years and there will be a lot of clinical experiments. I spent quite a fortune to buy the serial number for this health product from others. If I follow the normal procedure, it will take at least two and a half years to get it.”

“Is it that difficult?”

Fang Qiu didn’t expect it either.

He had just learned about the serial numbers of medicine and the health products. He knew that it was very difficult to get the serial numbers of medicine, but he didn’t know that it would also be so hard to get the serial number for the health products.

“Of course.”

Yang Ningyuan sighed softly and said, “As for the serial number, in fact, the serial number for food is the simplest. Now there are a lot of health products that actually use the serial number of some foods, but they term them as health products. This method is just purely to fool customers. When I knew that the serial number of the medicine and health product was difficult to get, I originally wanted to turn it into food, but after thinking about it, I found it inappropriate. After all, this is a medicinal product and the advertisement has been made, so I simply bought a serial number of the health product.”

“Oh, I see.”

Fang Qiu nodded with understanding.

Although he wanted to start a company and intentionally wanted to learn something about the serial number, Fang Qiu didn’t expect that there were so many things behind it.

He had to keep these things in mind. In the future, he would have to apply them when he was developing medicine.

“This product is ready. Shall we find someone to have a try?”

Yang Ningyuan took the packed Trillium Root-Securing Pill from Fang Qiu’s hand and said with great expectation.

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu smiled faintly.

Just now, when he got the Trillium Root-Securing Pill, he clearly sensed that it contained the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Although it was rare, it did exist.

Since there was the Qi of Heaven and Earth, then he did not need to worry about the effect of the Trillium Root-Securing Pill.

It could be said that Fang Qiu had examined it, so there was no longer any sense of expectation.

Soon, Yang Ningyuan found someone to test the pill.

When he took it, Yang Ningyuan rubbed his hands and looked forward to the results.

Fang Qiu, on the other hand, was smiling faintly.

More than ten minutes later, Yang Ningyuan received a report and found that the effect of the Trillium Root-Securing Pill was very obvious!

Hearing the report, Yang Ningyuan could not help being excited because all of this was developing according to his and Fang Qiu’s plan.

The Trillium Root-Securing Pill, which would be their first step to shock the medicine industry, was launched!
