While Qin Feng was just about to have a one-on-one chat with the HR manager, he was suddenly snatched by Hou Bao and pulled straight into the elevator. "Hou Brother, what's going on?" Qin, the young noble, asked in confusion. He had made it clear on numerous occasions that he had no interest in inventions or research. Hou Bao didn't hesitate: "Let's go to the pharmacy." In the span of a moment, Qin was already inside the elevator. "Why the pharmacy? I'm not ill at all. Oh—wait, you're the one who's unwell, aren't you? Are you experiencing back and knee weakness, or trouble with your erection? You're this age—surely it's time to start toning up... But you don't even have a woman in your life, so how could that be?" Hou Bao gave him a sharp jab, sighing impatiently. "You're the one who's kidney-deficient!" He almost blurted out: "Whether or not I'm kidney-deficient, your daughter has the final say. She even complained to me this morning that I'm too vigorous in bed!" Well, since they were already Qin Feng had assumed that Hou Bao would take him to a pharmacy under the company's umbrella for a work check-up. Who would want to go to a traditional Chinese medicine store with such a heritage? Before entering, the elderly man introduced, "This shop has a history no less than Tongren Tang in Beijing—though it's not as well known. Whenever you come here to shop, you can always be assured of genuine products." When Hou Bao said these words, he deliberately stepped away from him, pretending not to know him at all. How could I be blamed? The character "Chi" in traditional script already resembles "Zhai" quite closely; if written more casually, who could possibly recognize it? It's not that Qin Daxiao didn't want to admit his mistake—he simply kept seeing it as a "Chi" character, completely unrelated to "Zhai." The main hall of the pharmacy was elegant and ancient, even the modern glass elements appeared quite vintage under the surrounding decorative touches. The pharmacy manager was a man in his fifties, wearing glasses on his nose and a light-colored Tang-style robe, exuding a strong scholarly air. Upon seeing Hou Bao enter, the manager quickly greeted him, "Mr. Hou has arrived! Please come in—we haven't had you visit us for a while now. Xiao Zhang has just prepared tea for you." The manager's respect was genuine, and Qin Feng couldn't help but glance at Hou Bao, thinking to himself: this old man certainly has some real skills. The old man didn't wait for the other to ask, but stepped forward to introduce, "This is Qin Feng, son of Awai. Young Feng, this is Mr. Liu." "Ah, son of Awai—my apologies for not recognizing you earlier. I'm Liu Pengyuan. Please sit down, both of you." Mr. Liu invited them to the tea lounge, where a cup of fragrant tea was soon served. Once seated, Hou Bao got straight to the point: "Is there any good medicine?" By asking directly about good medicine without mentioning specific names, he showed he was a regular visitor here. Mr. Liu nodded and said, "Indeed, there are excellent medicines—century-old ginseng and wild reishi mushrooms the size of a pot lid. However, Mr. Hou, you probably know that the prices of traditional Chinese medicines have risen sharply lately. I'd like to inform you in advance, so that when you see something you like, you won't be surprised by the price I quote." Hou Bao waved his hand, unconcerned: "Good medicine doesn't have to be cheap. That's always been my belief. I'm aware of the price increases—some of Li manager called in a staff member to give them a few instructions. In no time, dozens of beautifully packaged boxes arrived, each containing precious herbs such as ginseng, reishi, bear bile, rhinoceros horn, snow lotus, and musk. Hou Bao glanced at each one and offered comments, while several people, including Liu Pengyuan, listened attentively and nodded in agreement. Qin Feng was completely unaware of what was going on and found it extremely boring—still not understanding why the old man had brought him here. "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take them back—don't want to embarrass yourself in front of Professor Hou." Liu Pengyuan explained. Artificially cultivated lingzhi had a fresh, vibrant color, while wild ones were dull and lifeless, and in the presence of experts, there was no hiding it. "Wait a moment, let me take a look," Qin Feng said, taking the piece of lingzhi from the store clerk. He furrowed his brows slightly and said, "How many more do you have? I'll take all of them." Liu Pengyuan was puzzled, but Hou Baoxian smiled mysteriously and added, "Although the appearance of these artificially cultivated lingzhi isn't quite up to par, they're perfectly suitable for use in health-enhancing tea. In fact, we're just about to prepare a batch to send out as gifts—Mr. Liu, you shouldn't find it strange at all." So what's the delay? Bring them all over. In no time, several boxes of lingzhi were brought over. Since Mr. Liu had other customers to attend to, he asked Hou Baoxian and Qin Feng to select their own, and then they would settle the bill together Qin Feng nodded. "I never thought it possible, actually—these days, finding good things in a pharmacy is something I never could have imagined." The type of reishi he was particularly interested in was called "Huo Zhi," a variant of ordinary reishi. Though unremarkable in appearance, it carried immense energy and was highly beneficial for cultivators. Of course, it offered little advantage to ordinary people. As a result, this vibrant-colored reishi usually went unsold, only being marketed as powdered extract. As a cultivator, Qin Feng could easily sense the latent qi within the Huo Zhi. After some searching, the two found six or seven pieces of it—quite a solid haul. Finally, they took a symbolic amount of two old mountain ginseng roots as well, and then left the pharmacy. As soon as they got into the car, the old man began dancing and clapping with delight, "I always said we'd find treasures at Rui Xiang Zhai—well, I'm absolutely right!" Xiao Feng, I have an idea. Since our Qin Group is involved in pharmaceuticals, why not lease a piece of land to cultivate medicinal herbs? Tell me the names of herbs that can enhance cultivation levels, and I’ll handle the rest. That’s a great idea! Qin’s inheritance includes a dedicated section on medicinal herbs. Even if these herbs are difficult to grow, a farm-scale approach will make it feasible. For instance, with thousands of acres of Lingzhi cultivated, some will inevitably mutate into Huo Zhi. Even if none do, selling them as medicine to ordinary people will still be worthwhile.
