Chapter 153 Special Ingredients
Xu Liangguo, upon hearing his words, exclaimed with pleasant surprise, "Do you mean you can recover by next week?"
Qin Hao placed the medicine on the coffee table, "According to estimates, it should be so. If there is any situation, Mr. Xu can contact me again."
"Okay," Xu Liangguo tried to contain his excitement.
Sun Fang asked, "Can we brew the medicine now? Should we use warm water or hot water?"
Qin Hao replied, "Yes, brew it with hot water, but it doesn't need to be too hot."
Sun Fang, carrying a packet of medicinal herbs, went into the kitchen, with Xu Siyao following behind.
Qin Hao said to Xu Liangguo and the others, "Mr. Xu, I hope you can keep this matter confidential for me."
Xu Liangguo nodded slightly, "Um, okay."
Chen Shengjun said nothing. He knew what Qin Hao was thinking. A person dreads fame as a pig dreads fattening; too much fame would not be good for him at the moment.
Sun Fang and Xu Siyao soon came out of the kitchen, followed by a strong medicinal scent, very bitter.
Wang Ping furrowed her brows slightly after smelling it because the odor was quite unpleasant.
Qin Hao said with a smile, "Ms. Xu, drink it while it's hot. Good medicine tastes bitter."
A smile appeared on Wang Ping's face, "Alright, the thing I hate to drink the most in my life is herbal medicine, because I've had too much of it."
After finishing her words, she took the bowl and slowly drank it, finishing it all before long.
Xu Siyao quickly handed her grandmother a cup of water to rinse her mouth.
After drinking the water, Wang Ping exclaimed in surprise, "Why do I feel a warm sensation in both of my lower legs?"
Qin Hao explained, "Ms. Xu, this is the effect of the medicine working, stimulating the nerves in your legs to regenerate."
"So that's how it is." Wang Ping had a smile on her face as she spoke.
Xu Liangguo and the others could see her smile was much more relaxed than before.
Xu Jiekang's face was flushed with excitement. If his mother could truly stand up again, it would fulfill a great wish of his.
The ultimate goal of his management of Yuan Kang Pharmaceutical Group was to find the mythical Immortal Elixir to cure his mother's legs. Enjoy exclusive chapters from empiren/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Over the years, he had traveled to many places to purchase medicinal materials, but all in vain.
He asked Qin Hao, "Xiao Hao, do you think there really is an Immortal Elixir that can bring the dead back to life as in the legends?"
Upon hearing his question, Qin Hao shook his head, "Legends are just legends. Personally, I think the Immortal Elixir from mythical stories probably doesn't exist, but if science and technology advance to a certain degree, there will be no incurable diseases in the world."
"Well said, the development of science and technology is the key," Chen Shengjun agreed.
By almost three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Jiekang and the others left.
Xu Siyao said somewhat reluctantly, "Grandma, I'll come see you again next week during my holiday."
"Mm, go ahead," Wang Ping said with a smile.
Xu Jiejian's car slowly exited the neighborhood.
Xu Liangguo glanced at Chen Shengjun and asked, "What do you think of this young man?"
Chen Shengjun replied, "Not bad, he can score full marks on a unified examination, he's a genius. I hope he can bring glory to the country in the future. Our country is in great need of such top talents."
Xu Liangguo nodded slightly. He walked into the house and looked at the six packets of medicinal materials on the table, then picked up one.
"What are you doing?" Chen Shengjun was taken aback by his action and then seemed to realize something.
Xu Liangguo called over a guard, "Take this to Mr. Liu for an analysis of the medicine's composition."
...
About an hour later, a doctor dressed in white entered. He was an expert from the Gu Jing Military District General Hospital.
In the courtyard, Xu Liangguo was playing Go with Chen Shengjun.
"Mr. Liu has arrived," Chen Shengjun said, lifting his head when he saw him.
Xu Liangguo also looked towards Mr. Liu.
"Commander, the properties and ingredients of this medicine have been analyzed."
Xu Liangguo said, "Let's hear it."
Mr. Liu reported, "Most of the medicinal materials in this prescription are what you just had taken here. Their primary effect is to nourish the body and restore vitality, but there's one thing we haven't identified."
"Oh? What is it?" Xu Liangguo asked curiously.
Mr. Liu explained, "Among these herbs, we discovered an unfamiliar liquid. Upon examination, the liquid contains many microelements, including some unknown elements."
"Hmm, I understand," Xu Liangguo nodded slightly.
He almost guessed that his spouse's legs could respond probably because of this special liquid.
Curious, Mr. Liu asked, "Commander, is this the medicine for treating the madam's legs?"
Xu Liangguo affirmed, "Yes, that's right. Jiekang happened to come across an extraordinary person who took a look today."
Mr. Liu asked, "Commander, may I see the madam?"
"Go ahead. I was planning to have you do a check-up on her anyway."
Mr. Liu entered the villa and examined Wang Ping, showing a look of astonishment, "This... The madam's legs have already shown a reaction. Who could have treated this? What method did they use?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Shengjun inquired with curiosity, "Do you think Mrs. Xu's condition can be completely cured?"
After pondering, Mr. Liu said, "Since the person could provoke a reaction in madam's legs, that proves everything. It's likely that the madam can stand up again."
...
Qin Hao returned to Jianghai City around five o'clock in the afternoon. Xu Jiekang wanted to invite him for dinner, but Qin Hao insisted on leaving.
Xu Jiekang had Xu Siyao drive him to Xinshang Square.
Xu Siyao looked curiously at the square and asked, "Qin Hao, what are you doing here?"
Qin Hao said, "My shop is here. I came to check on it."
Xu Siyao followed him out of the car, "May I take a look?"
Qin Hao replied, "Of course, let's go in together."
The two walked from the parking lot to the Jiangshan Roasted Duck Restaurant in Xinshang Square.
The sign outside the store was already installed, and the interior decoration was exquisite. Liu Pengyun and several others were busy inside.
Noticing Qin Hao and a beautiful lady entering, he quickly stopped his work, "Mr. Qin, you're here."
Qin Hao nodded, "Is everything ready?"
Liu Pengyun replied, "Everything is ready. Yuan Kang Pharmaceutical contacted me today. The medicinal materials can be delivered at any time. There are still some equipment that hasn't arrived yet, but they should be here by tomorrow at the latest, and we can probably open the day after tomorrow."
Qin Hao affirmed, "Mm-hmm."
While they conversed, Nie Si entered from outside.
"Mr. Qin."
Qin Hao instructed, "Nie Si, expedite the recruitment process."
"Yes, Mr. Qin," Nie Si answered promptly.
Xu Siyao, after taking a tour, commented, "Qin Hao, your store looks pretty good. You're opening the day after tomorrow, right? I'll have my father send you a flower basket."
