Chapter 1315 The Real Purpose, the Cultivation Skills!!!
A few days later…
“Rumble…”
The vibration of an engine could be heard outside the cultivation base.
After some detailed inquiries from several soldiers, a car quickly drove into the cultivation base.
A young man, who looked like a business elite, got out of the car with a briefcase. Then, led by a staff member, he came to Fang Qiu’s office.
In the office…
Fang Qiu sat at his desk as he searched for something on the Internet with his computer.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
There was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Fang Qiu replied casually.
“Mr. Fang, someone wants to see you.”
The staff member came in and informed Fang Qiu. Then he asked the young man to enter the office. Everything he had on was branded, from his suit, and sunglasses to his briefcase.
As soon as the young elite was inside Fang Qiu’s office…
Fang Qiu’s eyebrows immediately shot up.
“Hello, Mr. Fang Qiu.”
The man approached Fang Qiu’s desk with a smile and introduced himself, “My name is Yang Wenjun. I’m here on behalf of the major Chinese Medicine companies that cooperated with your Foundation.
“You can go now.”
When he heard that, Fang Qiu turned to the staff and said.
When the staff member left…
The man named Yang Wenjun had already sat down before Fang Qiu’s office desk.
“What can I do for you?”
Fang Qiu looked at Yang Wenjun indifferently and asked.
“Sure enough…”
Yang Wenjun put on a professional smile and said, “I’m here to negotiate with you on behalf of the pharmaceutical companies. Of course, I believe you know which specific pharmaceutical companies I represent. I’ll skip the usual preliminaries and come straight to the point.”
“These companies entrusted me with the task of negotiating with you. They are willing to continue to provide your Foundation with the same amount of medicinal herbs as before. We can absolutely guarantee that there will never be any fake or inferior medicine.”
Fang Qiu heard his promise.
Yet, he remained indifferent and silent as he waited for him to state their request.
He knew…
Those evil pharmaceutical companies finally couldn’t help but have a showdown.
Great. It just so happened that Fang Qiu could take this opportunity to see their real purpose.
Yang Wenjun saw that Fang Qiu did not give him any reply.
He shrugged carelessly and continued as he looked at Fang Qiu confidently, “Well, in return, my clients need something from you: the cultivation technique of planting Desert Cistanche, Tianshan Snow Lotus, and Dendrobe.”
“Do take note that the cultivation technique they want isn’t for ordinary medicinal herbs but for top-notch herb medicinal herbs!”
After he said that…
Yang Wenjun looked at Fang Qiu avidly as he waited for his response.
After Fang Qiu heard his words…
He finally realized that the ultimate purpose of these black-hearted pharmaceutical companies turned out to be this!
Abruptly…
He cracked a smile.
He laughed happily in a fury of grief!
He was happy because he had figured out the wishful thinking of these heartless pharmaceutical companies. Meanwhile, his heart was filled with grief and indignation. To make more money, these pharmaceutical companies were gambling with the doctors working in the countryside and villagers’ lives!
These merciless merchants…
They shamelessly sought personal gain like greedy wolves!
On the opposite side of the desk…
When Fang Qiu burst out laughing, Yang Wenjun’s expression changed slightly, and he instantly looked less confident. Meanwhile, a trace of displeasure appeared on his face.
He seemed to be very dissatisfied with Fang Qiu’s reaction.
People like him were always full of confidence and they always thought they could easily handle all kinds of situations. But once he encountered setbacks, he would start to be impatient.
“You don’t need to ask.”
Though Yang Wenjun still didn’t get a reply from Fang Qiu, he said, “We have confirmed that you provide the potential wonder medicinal herbs for Renyi Group, so you don’t have to deny it.”
“What if I turn you down?”
Fang Qiu asked indifferently.
“Seriously?”
Yang Wenjun immediately laughed and said, “You should know the consequences. If you choose not to share the technique, you won’t get any medicine. I believe you’ve seen the rumors on the Internet. Not merely you but all the clinics under Three Billion Foundation can’t get any medicine. At the same time, in all areas covered by Three Billion Foundation, the medicine prices will be back to normal or even be raised above the normal prices.”
“Then what?”
Fang Qiu sneered.
“I hate to be blunt, Mr. Fang.”
Yang Wenjun stood up and said to Fang Qiu, “But my clients have carefully discussed it. Since you established a Foundation for public interests, you should take people’s well-being as your duty. I suggest you think about your doctors and all their patients and reconsider our offer.”
“Of course, as a Chinese Medicine practitioner, you have always been focused on promoting and developing Chinese Medicine. So, for Chinese Medicine, you should give some serious consideration to our offer. Since you have such a good cultivation technique, shouldn’t you spread it and benefit the whole world?”
At this point…
Yang Wenjun, full of confidence, waited for Fang Qiu’s answer.
In his opinion, Fang Qiu had been forced into a desperate situation. In any case, he would win the negotiation!
But the next moment…
Fang Qiu said.
“Scram!”
Fang Qiu’s reply was an unequivocal ‘scram’.
“Okay.”
Yang Wenjun nodded with a smile and reached out to get the contract in his briefcase. Suddenly, he stopped groping around in the briefcase and froze there. Then, with a blank expression, he looked up at Fang Qiu and asked, “What did you say?”
“I told you to get lost!!”
Fang Qiu ordered, stressing each word.
As soon as he said that…
Yang Wenjun’s face instantly turned extremely ugly. He immediately pulled his hand out of his briefcase and stared at Fang Qiu. He threatened through gritted teeth, “I advise you not to cause damage to your own interest!
“You’re the ones who brought disgrace upon yourselves!”
Fang Qiu snapped.
“Humph!”
“You’ll regret it!”
Yang Wenjun snorted angrily, shot up, and stormed out with his briefcase.
Just after he left…
Jiang Mengjie rushed in.
“I heard that the pharmaceutical companies have sent someone to negotiate with you?”
Walking into the office, Jiang Mengjie glanced at the departing back of Yang Wenjun, who flounced angrily out of the office. Then, she asked Fang Qiu with a puzzled face.
“Mm.”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Next, to suppress us, these Chinese Medicine merchants will increase the overall price of Chinese Medicine herbs.
“What?”
Jiang Mengjie frowned and said, “The current price of traditional Chinese medicine is high enough. If they go on raising the price, how can patients afford it?
“Send out a notice: once these pharmaceutical companies raise the price officially, we will offer full subsidies. No matter how much they raise the price, we’ll fill the gap!”
Fang Qiu ordered coldly with a gloomy face.
“But…”
Jiang Mengjie’s frown grew deeper.
If that were the case, how much would they have to spend?
“There is no other option in this.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “Just do it!”
Outside…
As Yang Wenjun left the Beijiang cultivation base, he immediately called the others and spread the news of Fang Qiu’s refusal to the drug makers.
As soon as they received the message…
These pharmaceutical companies immediately held a video conference.
“How could he turn our suggestion down?”
“More than that, he even refused to negotiate with us!”
“Humph, I didn’t expect Fang Qiu to be so bold and resolute in his actions.”
“Fang Qiu is not a fool. He has pulled off impressive achievements, so he has brains. I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to subdue him.”
In the video conference room, the executives of major pharmaceutical companies were all looking at each other in dismay.
Little did they foresee that Fang Qiu would refuse them so straightforwardly. According to their original plan, as long as Fang Qiu was willing to negotiate, they could get the cultivation method for one medicine first. As for the planting skills for other drugs, they could take their time and get them one by one.
Unexpectedly…
Fang Qiu didn’t even give them a chance to talk and rudely drove out the negotiator.
He took no notice of the considerable pressure they put on him!
“At this point, we have to find a way.”
Amid the depressing atmosphere, Mr. Luo, the gray-haired man from Qiming Pharmaceutical Company, said, “We have all underestimated Fang Qiu. Now I believe you all feel the same way as I do. This guy has started a mini crisis here. According to the latest information, his cultivation technology can greatly shorten the growth cycle of herbs. For example, Tianshan Snow Lotus can be harvested and made into medicine in only one month. If he cultivates all the other medicinal herbs with this technique, all of us will be doomed. Without the advanced cultivation skill, the potency of medicine produced by us is far inferior to Fang Qiu’s!”
“We’ve gathered to plan something big because we were worried about this. Am I right?”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Indeed…
They had united to fight against Fang Qiu and the Foundation because they feared Fang Qiu would plant other medicinal herbs with the magic cultivation technique of growing Desert Cistanche. In the end, there would be no way out for their companies.
“It can be seen that Fang Qiu is already preparing to fight back, so we can’t give him a chance to develop. We must get his cultivation technique when he is not so strong. It’s a matter of life and death!”
Mr. Luo’s voice was heard.
In the conference room, everyone’s faces gradually became solemn.
At first, they thought that they could easily thwart Fang Qiu by framing the Foundation. In this way, they could easily take the planting technique from Fang Qiu.
But now, it was apparent that their initial plan wouldn’t work!
Soon…
This group of people got down to a serious discussion.
“Let me give my suggestion first.”
Mr. Luo said, “Firstly, we should try negotiating with Fang Qiu. After all, we are not locked in mortal combat yet. Fang Qiu refused us once but might agree with us the second time. When we can’t force him to give in, we can resort to inducements. We can spend some money to get the cultivation technique. This is the first-best plan.”
“Secondly, if Fang Qiu is determined to have a life-and-death struggle with us, we can only launch a public opinion attack. We’ll target the Renyi Group first, by cooperating with the Honggang media and foreign media. Do you remember the failure of Bawang Anti-falling Shampoo that year? We can do the same trick. We can ruin Fang Qiu’s reputation by linking Desert Cistanche products with cancer. Afterward, we’ll find a way to get the cultivation technique. It’s our second-best plan.”
“Thirdly, keep Three Billion Foundation as our target. We can join forces and accuse them of creating suspicious accounts and not conscientiously implementing policies. It’s our third-best plan!”
After Mr. Luo finished speaking…
He looked at everyone and asked, “What do you guys think?”
