Chapter 346: Chapter 346 Guh Tian’s Attitude (7)

Duan Jingning was carefully helped to his feet by Duan Shan. He waved his hand nonchalantly and said warmly to An Yiqing, "No rush, no rush. Xiao Qing, don’t hurry, take your time. This old man has plenty of time. My grandson is taking care of things at home, and Ah Shan is here to manage remotely whenever needed, so I’m not worried. Haha, girl, you just go ahead and treat me, whatever the consequences, I’ll take responsibility!"

The hearty words of Duan Jingning brightened An Yiqing’s heart. She was very fond of such sensible elders and held deep respect for them.

After chatting for a while longer, An Yiqing declined Duan Jingning’s kind invitation to stay for a meal on the pretext that there was business to attend to at Yuyuanzhai and left the villa by car.

In fact, she did have business to attend to, but it wasn’t at Yuyuanzhai; it was at the herb field.

It had taken nearly two hours to treat Duan Jingning, and including the travel time back and forth, by the time An Yiqing reached the herb field, it was already past one o’clock in the afternoon.

As she entered the office, Xing Bin was the first to receive the news.

"Miss! You’re here!" Xing Bin ran from the lab to the office, out of breath, and leaned against the doorway, gasping for air.

An Yiqing looked amusedly at the rugged-looking medical doctor and teased, "Xing Bin, your physical fitness really isn’t that good. Don’t always stay cooped up in the lab; you should go out and exercise like Brother Yusheng."

Xing Bin took a while to catch his breath and then waved his hand, shaking his head like a rattle-drum.

"No way, no way! Asking me to exercise is worse than asking me to die. I was born to stay in the lab. All that running and stuff is not for me."

An Yiqing almost facepalmed at Xing Bin’s attitude of treating exercise as an enemy. She deliberately put on a stern face and said seriously, "That’s not up to you! As my employee, naturally, I need to care for your health. As the general manager of Xuanjin Pharmaceuticals, if I don’t lead by example and take care of my own body, how can I manage an outstanding company? How can I develop astonishing formulas? I will call Brother Yusheng in a while and have him supervise you from tomorrow. Together, you will exercise!"

"Ah? Miss! You can’t do this to me!"

Xing Bin collapsed on the sofa with a wail as if foreseeing his miserable future days.

The teasing and idle chat over, they began to discuss official matters.

Xing Bin took a document from the desk and handed it to An Yiqing on the sofa.

"Miss, the first batch of herbs from the herb field has succeeded. After the research team’s tests, all components and medicinal properties are much higher than those currently on the market. And this is just from the ordinary fields. The premium fields, however, are already producing herbs with medicinal qualities nearing those of precious varieties. Although not yet rare, I believe it’s just a matter of time," Xing Bin reported in detail the cultivation status of the herb fields without any omissions.

An Yiqing was pleased with his attentiveness and nodded approvingly.

"Very good, the first batch of herbs from the ordinary fields can start processing. Let’s wait a bit longer with the premium ones and keep an eye on their condition."

"Yes, but, Miss, we’ve collected the herbs but we don’t have formulas to make medicine," Xing Bin scratched the back of his head, embarrassedly saying, "Although I’ve done some research in the past, it wasn’t really presentable. Using those formulas with common market herbs is fine, but it’d be a waste to use these field herbs on them."

An Yiqing couldn’t help smiling at Xing Bin’s sincere words and gently replied, "Don’t sell yourself short. When you were in the research institute, even your teacher wanted to copy your formulas, so naturally, that means your work had its unique merits. Don’t worry about the formulas, I have a plan. Our first product at Xuanjin Pharmaceuticals has to make a resounding and astonishing impact!"

Xing Bin looked puzzled, "Miss, what do you mean...?"

"Xing Bin, do you know whose money is the easiest to earn? Who spreads word the fastest in this world?" An Yiqing picked up a teacup from the coffee table and leisurely took a sip.

"Whose money is the easiest to earn?" Xing Bin thought about the various types of people he had encountered on the business field since childhood, then his eyes lit up, slapping his thigh, "I’ve got it! Women’s money is the easiest to earn! Gossip-loving women spread word the fastest! Especially those housewives with wealthy husbands, who have nothing better to do than shopping, beauty treatments, and chatty gatherings at home, they are the easiest to sway!"

An Yiqing smiled slightly at Xing Bin’s words and nodded, "Exactly. These days, anything related to women is sure to make money. Things like dieting, beauty, cosmetics, clothing... even male clothing stores are mostly spent on by women."

"Miss, you mean..." Xing Bin’s eyes gleamed, as if he began to grasp An Yiqing’s meaning.
