Urban Super Medical Saint

Inside the villa on the second floor, Ge Dongxu watched the black Cherokee disappear into the night, then returned to his room, read for a while, and, when it reached midnight, he sat cross-legged in the training room and practiced as usual.

Bits of Essence of the Moon were gathered by the Taiyin Spirit Gathering Formation and wrapped around Ge Dongxu, who absorbed them into his body. Like trickling water, they flowed through the Twelve Regular Meridians, nourishing his internal organs.

The True Qi became stronger and more refined during practice.

Soon midnight passed, and Ge Dongxu opened his eyes, his face showing a delighted expression.

The battle at Xiao Yuan Mountain, although it had brought Ge Dongxu to the attention of the Special Ability Management Bureau and he had reluctantly joined, also put him through a life-and-death test under the threat of guns for the first time, and let him see for the first time the complexity and malevolence of human nature.

Such an experience served as a spiritual baptism for eighteen-year-old Ge Dongxu, making his spiritual thoughts more refined and his Dao heart more perceptive.

After that, Ge Dongxu had found that the results of his practice had improved significantly. Only about three months had passed since the last time, and Ge Dongxu already faintly sensed that his next breakthrough was not far away.

...

Several days later, a sensational news story emerged from Jiangnan Province.

Li Bisheng, chairman of Qinglan Cosmetics Company, was arrested on charges including rape and bribery.

Afterward, banks reclaimed debts, and all assets under the Qinglan Cosmetics Company and Li Bisheng's ownership were auctioned off. Of course, before the auction, Fan Hong had already transferred the twenty million yuan Qinglan Cosmetics was owed to their account through a series of operations.

For the outside world, Li Bisheng's clangorous imprisonment was a bit unexpected, but that was about it. However, for the original shareholders of Qinglan Cosmetics, it was not only unexpected but also shocking. Especially those who knew more about the insider information such as Ren Chenle were scared nearly half to death by Li Bisheng's imprisonment, waking up from nightmares repeatedly for several days.

For someone worth several tens of millions and possessing special abilities to be imprisoned unexpectedly, Ren Chenle, unless foolish, would have realized that Ge Dongxu's power was far more terrifying than he had imagined.

As for others who did not have as much information as Ren Chenle, they were merely suspicious and dared not confirm that the matter was related to Ge Dongxu. However, when Liu Jiayao returned the compensation to them based on their former shares, these shareholders finally confirmed that the issue was related to Ge Dongxu, and they deeply regretted not having stood firm earlier, having missed a great opportunity.

Of course, as Ren Chenle had once wronged the shareholders of Qinglan Cosmetics, Liu Jiayao did not return his share of the compensation to him.

Beyond the shock and even fear of the original shareholders of Qinglan Cosmetics, several people from the provincial entertainment station were also quite frightened. They had all heard rumors of Li Bisheng's intentions to acquire Qinglan Cosmetics and could vaguely guess that the matter was related to Ge Dongxu.

Beyond the commotion caused by Li Bisheng, these days brought another piece of gradually sensational news. The provincial entertainment television station's first season of "Happy Female Voice" officially started selecting female singers nationwide, as well as the news of Qinghe Herbal Tea sponsoring "Happy Female Voice" with a huge amount.

...

Time flew by, and before long, it was already mid-April.

Spring was in full bloom, the sunshine was bright, and the temperature was mild; it was the best time of the year in Jiangnan Province, as well as a great time for excursions to enjoy the spring.

However, high school seniors could only bury their heads in their books every day. Forget about excursions, they scarcely had time to spend outside, practically studying either in the classroom or in their rooms all the time.

Ge Dongxu was an exception.

It was a weekend, the sunlight was pleasant, and while many high school seniors were cooped up at home rigorously studying, Ge Dongxu was far away in a tea house on Longxi Mountain in Linzhou City, chatting over tea with Tang Yiyuan and three other shareholders of Qinghe Herbal Tea, accompanied by Liu Jiayao.

"Given the current trend, I see that it's very likely the monthly sales will break through one hundred million by summer. If we exceed one hundred million, then our production will be overloaded," Cheng Yazhou said after taking a sip of tea, his face radiant with excitement.

Liu Jiayao's delicate body trembled slightly, and her look towards Ge Dongxu conveyed an indescribable complexity.

Qinglan Cosmetics had been developing for many years, and its annual sales had barely exceeded one hundred million; yet Qinghe Herbal Tea? It had been less than two years since its establishment, and its monthly sales could possibly break one hundred million in a few more months.

And all this was due to the young man in front of her, only eighteen years old, who shared an extraordinary friendship with her.

Unless one truly understood the man beside her, who would believe? A high school student had established a beverage company in just two short years that was set to achieve annual sales of over one billion.

From Qinghe Beverage, Liu Jiayao's thoughts once again turned to the "Flower Spirit" cosmetic series currently being developed by Qinglan Cosmetics Company according to Ge Dongxu's formula.

Originally, she had high hopes for this developmental "Flower Spirit", but she had always lacked some confidence. Now, however, she suddenly felt fully confident.

Since a herb tea formula could help a herb tea company grow to achieve annual sales of over one billion within two years, there was no reason his cosmetic formula couldn't make Qinglan Cosmetics renowned worldwide.

"If we add more production lines, do you think the staff and management can keep up with the growth? If they can't keep up, then let's slow down the pace of development. Haste makes waste; we would rather be stable than take risks just to make more money," Ge Dongxu pondered and said solemnly.

"No big issue. We have invested a lot in staff training over these two years, and Professor Tang has also helped us identify numerous technical and managerial talents," Cheng Yazhou replied.

"Then there's nothing to hesitate about, let's continue adding production lines. We can consider setting up branch factories in other cities, which could save quite a bit on transportation costs," Ge Dongxu said.

"We were thinking along the same lines, but for choosing locations, it's best if you oversee that," Cheng Yazhou nodded and said.

After more than two years of collaboration, Cheng Yazhou naturally understood that Ge Dongxu had some expertise in Feng Shui.

"No problem, you can start with adding production lines, and we will still place this one in Linzhou. Building branch factories will be a matter for later. For now, you can start scouting various places and pick some suitable ones. By then, I will have finished my college entrance examinations and should have plenty of time to make the final decisions," Ge Dongxu nodded and said.
