Chapter 349: Chapter 349 Fainting en Masse

Rarely, Xia Bowen and Xia Xindong exchanged glances.

Both saw shock in the other’s eyes.

Xia Bowen thought of something and suddenly frowned, asking, "Little Nuan, can this strength disappear suddenly?"

Song Yunuan: "No, unless I’m gone."

Xia Bowen: "What do you mean ’gone’? Kids shouldn’t talk nonsense." Then, changing his tone to one of earnest seriousness, he said, "Even so, you mustn’t be careless. There’s a saying in this world: ’Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.’

You always like to go it alone when you’re set on doing something, but have you ever thought about what you’d do if you were in a dangerous situation and suddenly lost your strength?"

Song Yunuan said, "Old Master, you’re right, and your reminder is proper."

Turning her head to look at Xia Xindong, her eyes shining, she said, "Uncle, research a medicine for me. Just like the ones described in novels, a powder that can make a bunch of people faint at once. Then make me some pills that, after eating, cause intense itching all over, making people roll on the ground, crying and begging me for the antidote. You could even develop a liquid medicine that I can put in my water gun, one that can take down a whole group in one spray..."

Song Yunuan was getting more and more excited as she spoke.

Xia Bowen was simply speechless, but he had to admit, the idea didn’t seem bad.

Xia Xindong thought about it and actually nodded, "Alright, I’ll start researching it when I get back."

In the past, Xia Xindong had never researched these things.

He had truly never thought in this direction.

Now, spurred by Song Yunuan’s suggestion, he felt it was feasible and readily agreed.

Xia Bowen sighed helplessly.

He hoped that day would never come.

Still, he quietly cautioned, "Don’t spread word about this thing. It’s best if just the three of us know."

-----------------

The exchange of one million in cash went smoothly once again.

Of course, he didn’t withdraw it immediately but started transferring it right away.

It was transferred to the import-export trading company’s account, as before.

This time, the entire million was transferred in.

Xia Xindong told Song Yunuan she could arrange it as she wished.

Song Yunuan told her uncle that she would make plans after she arrived in Beidu.

Xia Xindong could not accompany her to Beidu.

He had to go back with Old Mr. Gong.

This time, they had successfully negotiated cooperation with two countries where infectious disease number 06 was rampant.

For our own people, the treatment with our medicine is basically free.

But for others, it’s normal to charge.

Now the new pharmaceutical factory is located in Nanshan County Town, and many people have criticisms, feeling that it’s like losing a watermelon to pick up sesame seeds.

Just because Xia Xindong and Song Yunuan are in Nanshan County Town, they placed the pharmaceutical factory there.

Such a decision was seen as utterly irrational and selfish.

Xia Xindong was becoming arrogant because of the favor he enjoyed.

Just because he had abilities that others didn’t.

Such comments were not few.

Old Mr. Gong didn’t care about this.

His youngest son’s condition had been controlled and was now actually improving.

No matter where this medicine was produced, it was a life-saving remedy that would benefit many.

Plus, there was a secret that very few people knew.

It was also the main reason why the higher-ups had readily agreed.

That was because the main ingredient for producing the medicine was located in Nanshan County Town.

In the fields and hills, traces of this medicinal ingredient could be found everywhere.

It really was just a coincidence.

After all, when he was simulating this medication, he had in mind the flora of Xia family village.

And Xia family village was in the next province over.

When it really comes down to it, it wasn’t very far away.

All of this was known to Old Mr. Gong, but there was no need to discuss it with outsiders.

Every time someone said that to him, he would sternly rebuke them to shut up, saying, "If you have the ability to produce, it wouldn’t be a problem to even set up the pharmaceutical factory in your living room."

The other party would also get angry.

"Are you cursing me?"

"Why on earth would I set up the pharmaceutical factory in my living room?"

Regardless, Old Mr. Gong and Xia Xindong returned fully loaded with success.

Then they had to go back right away.

As soon as they received the first installment of the deposit, they started to make arrangements.

Zhilan Garment Factory, although a small village-run factory, was quite a highlight at the trade fair.

They received five orders totaling 280,000 yuan.

One dealer gave an order for a storage box from the straw weaving section, totaling 10,000 yuan.

There were also straw-woven items like sun hats totaling 8,000 yuan.

Some were crafts, and others were practical items.

Nanshan County Town’s specialties were introduced to Uncle Lew by Song Yunuan.

Uncle Lew did not give the order just because of Zhong Shaoqing’s face, but genuinely because the specialties from Nanshan County Town were indeed good.

He also gave an order worth 10,000 yuan.

The wood factory was brought by Factory Manager Duan and included items such as folding tables, clothes racks, and desks.

With Song Yunuan’s help in making connections, they received an order worth 60,000 yuan.

It wasn’t that they weren’t capable, it’s just that they lacked experience and didn’t have Song Yunuan’s audacity to shout about their business.

Two days before the trade fair ended, Director Liu had Song Yunuan reassigned over.

Thus, Song Yunuan helped negotiate nearly 800,000 yuan worth of foreign exchange orders.

Many people were shocked, and some even suggested that Song Yunuan should study finance.

Essentially, Beiquan and Nanshan both returned loaded with success.

Others were okay, as they had large stocks whether it was for specialties or straw weaves.

As for the new product, the storage box, Song Yunuan even drew out a design for them.

Now that the autumn harvest had passed, many people had free time on their hands.

Fifty thousand storage boxes could be completed in a month.

Pickling cucumbers was done within their capacity.

Only Song Liang was constantly pondering over how many items needed to be made with the 280,000 yuan for the clothes?

He wondered how many people were needed and how many days it would take, especially since the order was time-sensitive.

Even though Song Yunuan had already planned everything for him in detail.

But Song Liang was still so anxious that he was on the verge of foaming at the mouth.

It’s like cooking rice, how much rice requires how much water, there’s a standard for it.

If you add too much water, you end up with a pot of porridge.

Song Yunuan had no choice but to go over everything with Song Liang again, "Dad, I’ve arranged the fabric with Grandpa Hu. The textile factories in the provincial city will supply us as a priority. Then, Old Master Xia has a batch of fabric that he will send to us after he gets back.

Also, during the signing of the orders, the delivery times for some were extended. The order with the shortest delivery time is 50,000 yuan’s worth, which our inventory can complete eighty percent of. The remaining twenty percent can easily be finished within a month.

Of the other four orders, two are for summer clothes which can be delivered by next April, and the remaining two are for spring wear, ordered by Xiangjiang customers, mainly little suit sets which are a bit more troublesome to produce.

But they didn’t order much, just a thousand sets. Chu Zizhou is arranging the recruitment, Old Mr. Lin has contacted for a batch of sewing machines, the youth workstations have plenty of space, and there is an empty warehouse currently being urgently renovated.

Kou County also said that we are contributing to the nation, and once the new workshop is ready, there will be master workers from the clothing factory to help and even bring apprentices..."

The clothing factory in the county town does not just process quilts but also clothing, including industrial uniforms and various labor protection items.

However, the masters are all highly skilled ones.

When Song Yunuan explained all this, Song Liang actually worried more.

He wondered how busy it must be at home.

But he could not let Little Nuan see that, "Little Nuan, you’ve already told Dad about these things the previous days, but since it’s my first time experiencing this, I always feel uncertain. I just worry that none of what you said will come true by the time, and we’ll be left scrambling. I’m also worried about how busy it must be at home now..."

Song Yunuan scratched her head.

She felt that her father’s concerns made sense, to anticipate danger in times of safety, right?

Only by thinking this way can one go far...
