Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 72: New Mission



Thinking it over, Xia Liu instructed the two women before driving off towards the town.

In front of Tianluo Chinese Medicine Pharmacy, just like usual, there weren't many people, and the huge signboard looked much dimmer than before.

The appearance of the BMW caught Liu Lanxin's attention, after all, there were not many cars in the town, let alone a luxury car of this level.

When she saw Xia Liu get out of the car, her expression suddenly changed, and she ran out from the front desk.

"Boss Liu, you look so pale, you're not actually on your period, are you?" Xia Liu wondered, seeing Liu Lanxin rushing towards him, fuming with anger.

"You're the one on your period!" Liu Lanxin struggled to suppress the urge to punch him.

"Come on, tell me, is there some trouble you've encountered? Maybe I can help out a bit." Xia Liu just smiled at Liu Lanxin's anger and let it pass.

This girl had helped him before, and he believed in repaying kindness. Even if it was mutual benefit, she had given him a hand, and now that she was in trouble, how could he remain indifferent?

"Boss Xia is also in the medicinal herb business, and now even drives a BMW, don't you know about the difficulties Tianluo Pharmaceutical is facing?"

In her heart, Liu Lanxin presumed Xia Liu came to mock her; how could she show him a friendly face?

"Girl, I really didn't know. If I had known, I would have helped directly. Why would I come to poke at your sore spot?" Xia Liu felt downright wronged. Was he being categorized as a rich tycoon just because of a car? This girl was really silly and cute.

"You really didn't know?"

"I really didn't know!"

Seeing Xia Liu's sincere face, Liu Lanxin allowed him to enter the shop.

After some discussion, Xia Liu finally learned the whole story.

It turned out that Tianluo Pharmaceutical had recently encountered a problem with a bidding process.

The region had organized a bidding process, and the winning traditional Chinese medicine enterprises would be able to collaborate with the regional medical teams.

But to win the bid, one must achieve certain results and build a strong reputation within a set time period.

All the competitors in the bidding process were roughly equal in strength, but in terms of results, Tianluo Pharmaceutical was at the bottom.

This so-called result was actually about who could achieve the highest sales and the best brand reputation within half a month, to emerge victorious.

"Do you want me to supply a large amount of wild herbs, just to boost sales?"

"Exactly. Tianluo Pharmaceutical produces many items, but if the raw materials are wild, there will be much fewer side effects. More people will buy them, and the good reputation will follow."

Liu Lanxin vaguely remembered that not long ago, Xia Liu supplied a thousand or even several thousand kilograms of Atractylodes every few days, because of its wide medicinal value. It could be made into capsules or pills, and there was no need to speak of its sales. As soon as 'wild' was flagged in the product description, it was snatched up like crazy.

But at a critical moment, Xia Liu suddenly ran out of stock, which was extremely awkward.

If they could collaborate with the medical team, it would not only bring honor but also provide endless development channels. For a pharmaceutical company, it was truly a stroke of great fortune.

"So, it's actually a matter of who makes more money in half a month, right?" Xia Liu understood clearly. After all this talk, it just came down to practical matters.

"That's right. In half a month's time, the bidding pharmaceutical companies who sell the most will win the bid," Liu Lanxin nodded. She really hoped she could help, and to do that, she needed the wild herbs provided by Xia Liu.

"When it comes to making money, women's money is the easiest to earn. Just create a few products that women would be willing to spend a lot of money on, and the sales will surely go up."

"Easy for you to say. Women aren't fools. Why should we set our sights on women?" Liu Lanxin disagreed with this point, after all, she was a woman herself.

"Don't misunderstand, let's stick to the facts. I'm talking about creating a few products for whitening or breast enhancement. The sales would definitely spike," Xia Liu hurriedly clarified when he saw her changing expressions again.

"Easier said than done. How could you achieve whitening or, you know, enlargement without prolonged care?" Liu Lanxin gave Xia Liu a disdainful glance, thinking he was making fun of her.

"So, your, uh, size is due to regular maintenance, huh."

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, nothing, I feel like I might be able to help you," Xia Liu said, waving his hand.

"Out with it. If it helps secure the contract, I'll make sure you're rewarded," Liu Lanxin said, rubbing her hands together and eyeing Xia Liu eagerly.

"Here's the deal. I make a product, and once it sells, I take the cost price and fifty percent of the sales. You secure the partnership with the medical unit."

Xia Liu suddenly remembered an old prescription book the old man had shown him while he was still alive. It contained a recipe for whitening and breast enlargement. Although he hadn't tried making it before, the effects wouldn't be bad, as it was what the old man had entrusted to him.

"Forget fifty, even eighty percent is yours," Liu Lanxin said, intrigued. This medicine would be made by Xia Liu, and as long as it could help Tianluo Pharmaceutical secure the contract, she was willing to pay out of pocket.

"Heh, I'll need your brand's promotion, so fifty percent of the sales revenue is fine by me." On such matters, Xia Liu wasn't greedy; he knew his fair share.

Maybe this venture could also solve his bothersome funding issues—a win-win situation indeed!

"Alright, it's settled then. Let me know what I need to do." For some reason, Liu Lanxin greatly trusted Xia Liu, even on the basis of just a few words.

"You don't need to do much, but if you're willing, help warm my bed tonight."

"You stop right there! I'm going to chase you down and beat you to death!" Liu Lanxin shouted, chasing after Xia Liu as he left.

But she was no match for Xia Liu's speedy moves; the moment the car door shut, he sped away.

Watching the distant BMW, a blush slowly crept across Liu Lanxin's face...

Once home, Xia Liu didn't delay. He strapped on his basket and headed into the mountains to collect several types of fresh herbs.

He had seen many during his previous trips into the mountains, but since he hadn't needed them then, he didn't pick them.

Now, about half an hour later, he had found the herbs he needed.

"Seven-Leaf Grass, Eustoma, Snow Spirit Flower..."

Looking at the herbs in the basket, Xia Liu cheerfully dashed out of the forest.

After getting home, Zhang Xiaoxue and Zhang Xiaoman gathered around him. After some explanation, the two women looked at Xia Liu with heated gazes: "Brother Xia Liu, you're not joking, right? Can it really beautify?"

"Beautify? It can enhance breasts too!"

...

"Make it quickly, I want to become bigger and prettier!"

"Xiaoman, be more reserved!"

"You two go make dinner, I'll call you when I'm ready. Don't be anxious." Watching Zhang Xiaoman's chest bounce, Xia Liu swallowed a few gulps of saliva. It was already terrifying, and she wanted to increase it further, frightening indeed...

After the two women left, Xia Liu washed the herbs clean, then boiled a pot of hot water, and tossed the roots and stems of the herbs into it.
