Pondering his future plans, Chen Erbao soon arrived at the factory on the outskirts of the city.

The security guards all recognized his Land Rover, saluting one by one as they let him through.

Chen Erbao parked his car and hurried to his office.

"Xiaoqing, I'm in my office. You can bring them over now!"

Chen Erbao straightened his clothes, put on his watch worth hundreds of thousands, and sat in his chair to wait.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!

"Come in."

As the office door opened, Bai Xiaoqing walked in, followed by two men and a woman.

One of the men wore gold-rimmed glasses; he had a slender build and sharp, lively eyes, looking quite clever at a glance.

The other man had a square face, a steady expression, thick eyebrows, and large eyes. He was tall and had a rather imposing build.

As for the woman, she was quite a beauty. She also wore glasses and a suit, and her hair was combed meticulously, giving her a very capable and professional air.

"President Chen, these are three of my former classmates. They are all professional managers in the industry with extensive experience."

Bai Xiaoqing poured tea for everyone and began the introductions.

"Hello, President Chen. My name is Hong Bin. I'm from Binhai University and was in the same graduating class as Manager Bai. I have a Master's in Management and two years of work experience. This is my resume!"

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses showed no shyness, introducing himself confidently before handing over his resume.

"Hello, President Chen. My name is Wu Wanjiang, and I also have a master's from Binhai University..."

"Hello, President Chen. I'm Song Qian..."

The other two also stood up to introduce themselves.

Chen Erbao took the three resumes, read through each one, and nodded to himself.

The three of them were indeed experienced. Moreover, the reasons Bai Xiaoqing had been able to recruit them were unrelated to their previous jobs. Hong Bin and Song Qian had chosen to return to Jiangnan Province because their former jobs were too far from home, while Wu Wanjiang had recently resigned for family reasons.

Chen Erbao put down the resumes, looked up at the three of them, and said at an unhurried pace, "You are all professionals in this industry, so you must have heard of the Dream Fantasia mud mask. I'm curious to know your thoughts on its future!"

He was testing their intentions. If they were truly committed to working for him long-term, he certainly wouldn't be stingy with positions. Once the corporation was established, he would promote anyone with real ability.

Hong Bin was the first to speak. He pushed up his glasses, rose to his feet, and said with a poised demeanor, "President Chen, although the Dream Fantasia mud mask was only recently launched, it has already had a huge impact on the cosmetics industry. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that its future is limitless..."

...

After a half-hour review, Chen Erbao finally decided to hire all three of them.

As their Hand Seals were pressed onto the contracts, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Erbao was very satisfied with the three of them, especially Hong Bin. He spoke logically and with good reason, and he had an excellent sense of propriety. Such a person, skilled in dealing with all sorts of people, would be very good at management and diplomacy.

The other two also had their own respective strengths.

After the contracts were signed, Chen Erbao smiled at the three of them and said, "Let's have lunch together. For the next week, you'll stay in Hongyuan City and follow Manager Bai to get familiar with the daily work. I have to go out of town for a bit. When I get back, the company will begin its expansion in Jiangnan Province. With Mr. Zhao Feng's help, you don't need to worry about establishing the new factory!"

"Zhao Feng? President Chen, do you mean Zhao Feng, the richest man in Jiangnan Province?"

"Yes. Mr. Zhao and I have a very good relationship."

Upon hearing this, Hong Bin and the other two were completely stunned!

The richest man in Jiangnan Province was a behemoth who ranked among the nation's elite!

They never imagined Chen Erbao actually had a connection with such a major figure!

'No wonder... no wonder the mask business is doing so well...'

The three of them had originally thought Chen Erbao had built up his company by leveraging his connection with Medicine King Hall, but they never expected he was also connected to Zhao Feng.

Of course, Chen Erbao had no idea what they were thinking. He and Bai Xiaoqing gave the three newcomers a tour of the factory. Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, he went to the cafeteria with the four of them to eat.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Chen Erbao had just returned to his office when his phone rang again.

"Hello?"

It was an unfamiliar number; he didn't know who was calling.

"Divine Doctor Chen, it's me! I've taken care of everything in the Capital City, and I've just arrived in Hongyuan City!"

An elderly voice came from the other end of the line.

Fang Yi!

Chen Erbao was surprised the old man had actually come.

He had previously invited Fang Yi to be the village doctor in Bailong Village, and Fang Yi had readily agreed. Chen Erbao had assumed it was just a momentary impulse and that he probably wouldn't come after returning home, but it turned out he was quite determined!

Bailong Village not having a doctor was indeed a troublesome issue, neither big nor small. Although the village's population wasn't large, people were bound to get minor ailments like headaches and fevers. Being without a doctor was not an option!

Just yesterday, Zhao Ruoying had also mentioned the matter of the village doctor to him.

He was so busy right now that his feet barely touched the ground; there was no way he could continue serving as the village doctor. Fang Yi's arrival had solved a small problem for Chen Erbao.

He said with a smile, "Divine Doctor Fang, where are you? I'll come pick you up right now!"

"Divine Doctor Chen, you're flattering this old man. How could I dare call myself a divine doctor in front of you... This old man is just a few years your senior. You can just call me Old Prescription!"

Fang Yi's attitude was very polite.

His medical skills were actually quite excellent. Though not on par with Chen Erbao's, he was still a renowned and masterful doctor throughout the country.

Chen Erbao gave a humble smile. "How could I do that... I'll call you Elder Fang!"

"Whatever you prefer... Divine Doctor Chen, I just got off the plane. I'm still at the airport!"

Chen Erbao nodded. "Please wait for me at the airport. I'll be there soon."

The factory was close to the airport, only about a twenty-minute drive away.

Chen Erbao hung up, grabbed his car keys, and headed out the door. He said a quick word to Bai Xiaoqing and then rushed to the airport.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Erbao arrived at the airport and immediately spotted the white-haired Fang Yi.

Although he was old, Fang Yi was full of vigor. He stood there with a straight back, his eyes focused, looking hale and hearty.

"Elder Fang!"

Chen Erbao walked over to greet him, his gaze falling on the two young people standing beside Fang Yi.

They were the same two medical Ph.D. students who had accompanied Fang Yi to the Zhao Family's home last time.

"Elder Fang, are they...?"

Chen Erbao hadn't expected them to come along as well.

Fang Yi gave a helpless smile and explained, "I had originally planned to resign from all my positions to focus on studying medicine under you, Divine Doctor Chen. However, the leadership at Jingcheng University's medical department stubbornly refused to let me. We went back and forth for a long time, and in the end, they insisted I retain my status as a Ph.D. supervisor and continue to mentor students. These two students also agreed to follow me to Bailong Village, so they came along!"

Chen Erbao was overjoyed. 'A buy-one-get-two-free deal!'

'Two medical Ph.D.s! I've really hit the jackpot!'

He smiled at the two students and said, "Bailong Village isn't like the city. The conditions might be a bit harsh and rudimentary, so I hope you are both mentally prepared!"
