The Medical Guru Chapter 1317

Chapter 1317 A Way Out, Indigenous Medicinal Herbs!

Zhao Shanlin finished sharing his experience.

Fang Qiu also fell silent.

He had thought the Chinese Medicine market should be healthy. Inevitably, there were always some people who liked playing tricks, but on the whole, the Chinese Medicine market was not bad.

But now…

Zhao Shanlin’s account of it shocked Fang Qiu to the core.

He didn’t expect the situation to be so serious. While Mr. Zhao described what happened in great detail, Fang Qiu imagined those scenes, and his heart was filled with sadness.

Chinese medicine herbs…

They formed the foundation of Chinese Medicine!

Without available Chinese medicinal herbs, what would be the use of Chinese Medicine?

If the situation continued to worsen, as Zhu Benzheng had said, Chinese Medicine would be doomed!

When traditional Chinese medicine was no longer effective, even the most outstanding Chinese medicine practitioner would be useless.

“Mr. Zhao.”

Fang Qiu looked at Zhao Shanlin solemnly and asked, “What do you think we should do?”

“Indigenous medicinal herbs!”

Zhao Shanlin expressed his thoughts. “We have to guarantee the quality of medicinal herbs. We need to make fundamental changes and standardize the cultivation techniques of indigenous medicinal herbs.”

“Indigenous medicinal herbs?”

After Fang Qiu heard what he said…

On the spot, he began to mull over his idea.

What were indigenous medicinal herbs?

It was a specific medicinal herb produced in a particular place. For thousands of years, countless Chinese Medicine doctors had proved it to have the best medicinal property.

For example, there was pseudo-ginseng in Yunnan.

Pseudo-ginseng in Yunnan had more of the authentic properties of medicine than pseudo-ginseng in other places throughout the country. Thus, pseudo-ginseng in Yunnan could be regarded as an indigenous medicinal herb!

The cultivation of indigenous medicinal herbs appeared simple. Predecessors in ancient times had marked out the sites where the best local medicinal herbs could be cultivated. Therefore, medicinal herbs would be planted in the areas most suitable for them to thrive. However, the reality was far more complicated.

The most appealing feature of indigenous medicinal herbs was their outstanding efficacy. Effective medicinal herbs were the most popular, which would certainly be favored by pharmaceutical merchants. Those preferred herbs by merchants would attract a large number of individual farmers.

This was a cycle. But indigenous medicinal herbs might be ruined at many turning points in the cycle.

For instance…

To make more money, individual agricultural households wouldn’t spend time creating a healthy growing environment for herbs. After the harvest, they didn’t know how to preserve herbs well and pay attention to sanitation. As a result, medicinal herbs might get damp and mildewed.

Later, when pharmaceutical companies collected these herbs, many other issues would emerge.

With this, there would be problems at each stage.

How could it be so simple to avoid all these problems?

“Give me some time. Let me think about it…”

Fang Qiu agreed with Zhao Shanlin’s proposed solution, but he had to carefully think about the specific details. He should know exactly what he would do.

At this time…

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Suddenly, Fang Qiu’s cell phone rang and pulled him back from his deep thoughts.

He took it out and had a look.

It was a call from He Xue.

“Hello?”

Fang Qiu answered it without delay.

“Where are you?”

He heard He Xue’s question.

“I’m in the conference room.”

Fang Qiu said.

“Great. Someone dispatched by these Chinese Medicine companies came to our base, saying he was here to negotiate with you. What’s going on?”

He Xue asked.

After there was a problem with the Foundation, He Xue was afraid that something bad would also happen to the Renyi Group. She helped Fang Qiu call the police and detain a few doctors who had escaped. After that, she devoted herself to the Renyi Group’s affairs and thoroughly checked all the group’s medicine. Meanwhile, she had to discuss the problems about the various drugs with major domestic pharmaceutical companies and some foreign companies. She had been so occupied that she was not clear about Fang Qiu’s business, so she had to ask him on the phone.

“Bring him to my office. After I receive him, let’s have a meeting. I’ll update everyone on the latest situation.”

Fang Qiu explained patiently.

“Okay.”

He Xue nodded in response.

Then she hung up.

“Mr. Zhao, please go and have a rest first. Let’s have a special meeting later.”

Fang Qiu said.

“Okay.”

…

Zhao Shanlin nodded in agreement.

He just returned in a hurry and did not have a good rest yet. Moreover, he had been too agitated by the current situation about the Chinese medicinal herbs and could not sleep well in the past few days and didn’t even have time to take a shower.

He could take this interval to take a shower and relax a little.

“You three can leave too.”

Fang Qiu said to Zhu Benzheng and the other two people.

“Mm.”

The three of them nodded in succession.

After that…

The five of them walked out of the conference room.

Fang Qiu walked toward his office while Zhao Shanlin, Zhu Benzheng, and the other two returned to their dormitories.

A minute later…

…

Fang Qiu arrived at his office.

At this time…

He Xue was waiting outside the door with the visitor.

“Hello, Mr. Fang Qiu.”

When he saw Fang Qiu, the man standing with He Xue came over immediately. He bowed to Fang Qiu and stretched out his hand, saying, “My surname is Qu. I’m Qu Tianneng.”

Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows.

He went straight into the office without shaking his hand or replying.

“I’ll go and prepare for the meeting first.”

Because Fang Qiu was not quite himself at this time, He Xue didn’t follow him into the office. Instead, she turned around and left.

Qu Tianneng, who had followed her here, walked into the office after Fang Qiu.

“Go ahead.”

Sitting down at his desk, Fang Qiu looked at the middle-aged man named Qu Tianneng before him and asked, “What do they want to do? Are they going to continue to threaten me?”

“No, no, no.”

Qu Tianneng hurriedly stepped forward with an obsequious smile. He sat at Fang Qiu’s desk, smiled, and said, “You misunderstood us. How could we threaten you? I’m here to talk with you. We’ll have a fair, just, and open negotiation.”

“So, you want to play in a fair, just, and open way?”

Fang Qiu laughed sarcastically.

“Here’s the thing.”

Qu Tianneng ignored the sneer on Fang Qiu’s face and said, “You must have been very clear about what they want, so I won’t explain too much. I don’t know what your last negotiation was with my clients, but I can assure you: I’m here to seek pleasant cooperation with you.”

“Let’s cut the crap.”

Qu Tianneng took a contract out of his briefcase, put it before Fang Qiu, and said, “One billion!”

“Your cultivation technique is superb. It has attracted my clients’ attention. Your cultivation technology can contribute a lot to the development of Chinese Medicine. Have you ever thought about that? You’ve been working hard to advance Chinese Medicine, haven’t you? Now there is such a great opportunity before you.”

“If you’re willing to share it, my clients can pay the money instantly. With the money, you can help the public. Meanwhile, your cultivation technique can be spread widely. Once my clients use this technique, they can produce many more potent Chinese medicinal herbs. We can sell Huaxia medicinal herbs all over the world if we join forces. In this way, not only can it benefit human beings, but it can also promote Chinese Medicine worldwide and it can gain international recognition.”

“You can achieve two things at one go. Why don’t you do it?”

Qu Tianneng looked at Fang Qiu with a smile.

“That’s a good consideration.”

Fang Qiu smiled scornfully and asked, “My cultivation methods and your clients’ patent technologies, which ones do you think are greater?”

“Hum?”

Qu Tianneng was stunned and didn’t know why Fang Qiu suddenly asked this question. He was a little confused.

“Well, I think my cultivation skills are more valuable.”

Fang Qiu continued, “In this case, I’d like to pay one billion to buy all your patents. Let me help you benefit all mankind. What do you think of it?”

“Anyway, I am devoted to promoting Chinese Medicine and benefitting human beings. It’s more appropriate for me to do this, isn’t it?”

As soon as he finished speaking…

Qu Tianneng was stupefied with amazement.

He did not expect Fang Qiu to suggest such a thing.

Fortunately, he came with other backup plans. Otherwise, Fang Qiu’s suggestion would have extinguished his hope!

“Just listen to me.”

Qu Tianneng quickly changed the topic and said, “As long as you agree to sell your cultivation technique, we can pay you more. After getting your cultivation technique through normal channels, we’ll fully support your Foundation to help more patients and even provide some free drugs.”

“Of course, we’ll also assist you in developing your business. With our strength, as long as we want to do it, we can rapidly make you one of the top ten cultivation giants in the country or even in the world. But first of all, you should sign this contract!”

Opposite him…

Fang Qiu listened, his face expressionless.

Looking at Fang Qiu’s poker face, Qu Tianneng frowned slightly and tried to persuade Fang Qiu from different aspects.

But no matter what he said, Fang Qiu remained unmoved.

Eventually…

After he spoke for a long time, Qu Tianneng couldn’t think of anything else to say.

He uttered the last sentence and was about to ask Fang Qiu again.

“Have you finished?”

Fang Qiu asked abruptly.

“Mm.”

Qu Tianneng quickly replied, “Then what do you think of it?”

“Get out!”

Fang Qiu gave him a blank stare.

“Ah?”

Qu Tianneng was taken aback.

“Wait.”

Qu Tianneng finally understood Fang Qiu’s intention and hastily added, “Tell me if you want anything more. We can agree to any terms if you agree to share your cultivation technique.”

“You can get lost now!”

Fang Qiu snorted coldly.

Fang Qiu couldn’t transfer his cultivation method. But even if he could, he would never share it with these despicable and black-hearted businessmen!

“How about you take some time to reconsider it?”

Qu Tianneng asked with a grin.

“Get out right now!”

Fang Qiu shouted out loud.

“Okay, okay, okay,”

Qu Tianneng seemed to be frightened. He shot up from his seat and said with a flattering smile, “Think twice about it. This is my business card. Call me at any time after you think it through.”

After that…

He left his card on Fang Qiu’s desk and turned to leave.

Qu Tianneng walked out of the cultivation base.

His face instantly changed.ReAd lat𝙚st chapters at n0v(𝒆)lbin.co/m Only

He took out his mobile phone and made a call.

“The negotiation is over. This guy refused point-blank to cooperate!”

At the other end of the phone…

Mr. Luo, who had received the news, narrowed his eyes and said, “I see.”

Then he ended the call.

Mr. Luo quickly clicked on his phone, opened a WeChat group, and quickly sent a message. “The first-best plan failed. Let’s prepare for the second-best plan!”

Here…

Fang Qiu returned to the conference room. He found all the people were there except for Jiang Mengjie.

After all, this was a meeting of shareholders. Although Jiang Mengjie was the Foundation’s senior executive, she was not a shareholder. Thus, she had no right to attend the meeting.

Fang Qiu walked to the conference table and sat on the host seat. He frowned and said seriously “I have to tell all of you the very stark reality!”
