In the center of Yuhai, every inch of land is located, with an elegant courtyard. There are two four-story buildings in the courtyard. This is the location of Jicui Pharmaceutical Company. One of these two buildings is the company's administrative office building, most of which are empty and no corresponding departments have yet to move in. The other is the company's experimental building, with various instruments and equipment placed in each room. According to the memories of residents living nearby, they seem to have never seen the lights of this building turn off.

Luo Zhaoxue, president of Jicui Pharmaceutical, was sitting in a laboratory at this time, listening to the report of technical director Shi Yunsheng.

"We conducted an ingredient analysis of the original Jiuli San pills provided by Jicuitang. The ingredients that can be determined include Sumu, Wulingxie, Soap Bean Thorn, Willow Leaves, Cloves... and several unknown ingredients. We are comparing with the characteristics of the medicinal materials in the Chinese medicine bank, and I believe that it should be able to be identified in the end.

The biggest problem at present is that we cannot determine the proportional relationship of various medicinal materials, and the method of preparing medicinal materials in advance. We have guessed that there are about 47 combination methods. If each method needs to be conducted clinical experiments, there must be enough patients as volunteers. Yuhai Medical College is already contacting us volunteers, but the number of people is far from enough. According to the current progress, it is estimated that it will take 2 to 3 years to complete the experiment of these 47 combinations."

Shi Yunsheng, wearing a pair of myopic glasses as thick as a bottle, said to Luo Zhaoxue in a helpless tone.

"It's too long!" Luo Zhaoxue said without hesitation, "This progress is completely unacceptable."

"We have referenced all the past medical cases provided by Mr. Luo, and eliminated more than 20 solutions. The remaining 47 types can only be tested through experiments. Jiulisan is mainly used for heart failure symptoms, but there are not many patients with heart failure themselves. It is very difficult to collect enough experimental samples within the Yuhai City."

"What if the scope of the experiment can be expanded? For example, go to some specialized hospitals in Qihua to seek some volunteers."

"This is of course the best! However, the corresponding experimental personnel must be added. During the medication period, someone must monitor the patient's reaction at any time. If there are more hospitals involved, our existing experimental personnel will not be able to take care of them at all."

"You don't have to worry about this. I will go to Yunjiang Medical University to find some young teachers and graduate students to help."

"Mr. Luo, if this happens, the budget will be exceeded?" Shi Yunsheng asked timidly.

A trace of sorrow flashed across Luo Zhaoxue's beautiful face, and she said, "I'll find a way to solve the budget problem. Jiulisan is our expected core product. If the formula problem cannot be solved for a long time, the company will be really dragged down."

"Sister Luo, phone number..."

A girl with short hair with neat hair and appropriate professional attire walked over quickly and handed a cell phone to Luo Zhaoxue. She is Luo Zhaoxue's assistant named Sun Shu, 24 years old, 2 years younger than Luo Zhaoxue. Although she is young, she is a capable general under Luo Zhaoxue. She is best at sorting out a messy work in an orderly manner. Since the two of them are not very different in age and have quite speculative personalities, they have a good personal relationship and are both called sisters in informal occasions.

"Who came?" Luo Zhaoxue asked casually while taking the phone.

"It's the old man." Sun Shu whispered in a mysterious look.

"Hey, grandpa, is there anything wrong?" Luo Zhaoxue knew who Sun Shu was talking about, so she took the phone and asked directly.

"Girl, where are you busy?" What came from the receiver was indeed the voice of Luo Zhaoxue's grandfather Luo Weicheng.

"Where can I be, of course I'm in the company."

"Did you have supper?"

"Dinner? Is it time for supper now?"

"Look at the watch, what time is it now? But if you haven't had dinner, it's just right. I'm having dinner with a few friends on Wenyu Street. You can drive over quickly."

"Grandpa..." Luo Zhaoxue said in a coquettish tone, "I won't go to make trouble when you have dinner with your friends. I'm still busy here. I'll ask Sun Shu to order a takeaway for me later and I'll deal with it."

"I have an important thing here, you must come to discuss it in person. Don't delay it, Wenyu Street, Baicao Medicinal Food House, we are in the private room No. 7, come here quickly." Luo Weicheng said, and without waiting for Luo Zhaoxue to ask anything else, he hung up the phone directly.

"I'll go to talk in person?" Luo Zhaoxue looked at her phone, feeling inexplicably. She also knew that although her grandfather spoiled her on weekdays and often teased with her, she was very serious when it came to business. He said on the phone that there were important things and that Luo Zhaoxue had to talk in person, which was obviously not a joke. Thinking of this, she turned her head and asked Sun Shu, "Shu'er, do you know what a hundred herbal medicine meal shop is in Wenyu Street?"

"I know." Sun Shu nodded, "It only appeared two months ago. Now it is famous in Yuhai. You have been busy with Jiulisan for this period, and I dare not tell you. I was originally urging you to treat me to a meal."

"Okay, go with me. Grandpa has a dinner there, so let's go and have a free meal." Luo Zhaoxue said with a smile.

In Baicao Medicinal Food Floor, Luo Weicheng put down his cell phone and said with a chuckle: "I called my girl here. Now she is in charge of Jicui Pharmaceutical. Just let her talk directly with Li Yu. Li Yu, let me tell you that my granddaughter is a complete businessman. If you have any requirements, just ask her, don't worry about the affection of me, the old man. If you want to be polite to her, you will be cheated to death by her."

Li Yu smiled and said, "Is that true? If so, then I will speak to Sister Luo."

"It should be, it should be business." Luo Weicheng encouraged.

The formula for Jiuli San is a heart-wrenching problem for Luo Weicheng and a roadblock facing Luo Zhaoxue's Jicui Pharmaceutical Company. Luo Weicheng believes that Li Yu must know the real formula of Jiuli San, but without a suitable price, Li Yu will definitely not trade it.

Luo Weicheng wanted to negotiate with Li Yu, but then he thought that it would be more appropriate to let his granddaughter appear. First, it was quite embarrassing to bargain with Li Yu in his own identity; second, with Chen Ran, Gao Shixin and others' faces, Li Yu might be embarrassed to offer a real price to him, which was equivalent to being disrespectful to the old and taking advantage of the younger generation. After thinking about it, he finally chose to call Luo Zhaoxue and asked her to come to the medicinal food shop immediately, and negotiate with Li Yu.

The small courtyard of Jicui Pharmaceutical Company is not far from Wenyu Street. Luo Zhaoxue drove himself and drove a road with relatively small traffic. In less than 10 minutes, she arrived at the Medicinal Food Shop. When she walked into the private room No. 7, she saw several familiar faces and greeted him one by one: "Professor Chen, Professor Gao, Boss Cai, you are all here..."

"Oh, it's Zhaoxue. I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've grown into a big girl." Gao Shixin laughed and returned the favor to Luo Zhaoxue. In fact, he had only met Luo Zhaoxue once or twice, and the most recent time was 10 years ago. At that time, Luo Zhaoxue was still in middle school, and she was far from being able to look like a professional manager now.

"Come on, Zhaoxue, I heard from Mr. Luo that you haven't eaten yet, are you? The chair has been prepared for you, sit down and eat something first." Cai Meilin stood up and greeted.

Ge Jianyu and Duan Kaiyin quickly stepped forward, next to Luo Weicheng, arranged two seats for Luo Zhaoxue and Sun Shu, and told the waiter to deliver clean tableware and served a bowl of chicken soup for each of them.

"Hey, isn't this our ginseng and psychedelic chicken soup?"

When Luo Zhaoxue smelled the chicken soup, her reaction was exactly the same as before. This kind of ginseng and Poria chicken soup is her favorite. During her time in Beijing and studying for an MBA abroad, the place where she missed her hometown the most was the secret ginseng and Poria chicken soup from Jicuitang. Who would have thought that she actually had the same soup in this newly opened medicinal food shop.

"There are also cypress pig hearts, galacto and crucian carp... Grandpa, did you teach them these dishes?" Luo Zhaoxue looked at Luo Weicheng in surprise and asked.

"You try it first, see if it is authentic or not, and then talk about it." Luo Weicheng was not in a hurry. He heard that his granddaughter had not eaten dinner yet, so he didn't want to start talking about serious matters so soon. He knew that his granddaughter was a workaholic. Once he talked about serious matters, he might not be able to eat this supper.

"Um, it's delicious!" Luo Zhaoxue was really hungry, and these medicinal foods were indeed delicious. She didn't care about maintaining her ladylike demeanor, so she shook her cheeks and started eating in big mouthfuls.

Next to Luo Zhaoxue, Sun Shu's image was not very good. She had heard from her friends about the delicious dishes at Baicao Medicinal Feast, but she was helpless and was reluctant to spend thousands of dollars to enjoy her. Now she has an opportunity to eat without spending money, how could she let it go? As for whether it is appropriate to eat like this, isn't the president's example next to her? As the assistant to the president, what's wrong with following the president's rhythm?

The two girls were having fun, and the old men watched from the side and were also infected. Originally, everyone could not eat anything, but now they had an appetite and picked up the chopsticks again. Ge Jianyu was a little dull in other matters, but he was very meticulous about the matter at the dinner table. He secretly went out and told Xu Yingying to add a few more dishes to the private room so that everyone could enjoy the meal.

"Well!"

A burp made Taotie, who was burping his head to eat and drink at the table, finally came to his senses. Everyone looked up and saw that the little girl Sun Shu covered her mouth, her face flushed with shame. Obviously, the indecent sound came from her mouth. Luo Zhaoxue put down her chopsticks, looked at the empty plates and bowls on the table, and said incredible:
Chapter completed!
