Xue Meiqin was instructed by Long Xiao to bandage the young man's external wounds and also gave him a pill for internal injuries.
The young man was somewhat displeased by Long Xiao's casual demeanor but refrained from showing it out of respect for Lu Tianxing.
Xue Meiqin took the young man to tend to his wounds, while Long Xiao and Lu Tianxing sat by a tea table under a tree and began to carefully read the documents.
The information was detailed. The Saber Tower was an industry of the Island Nation's Daiwa Overseas Development Company. It was built five years ago, completed two years ago, and now served as the Daiwa Overseas Development Company's East Sea headquarters.
The Daiwa Overseas Development Company, on the surface, was an ordinary joint-stock company, but behind the scenes, it had close ties with all strata of the Island Nation.
This company had stakes in numerous Chinese companies, its presence extending from food and agricultural products to manufacturing, shipping, finance, and the pharmaceutical industry.
The actual controlling shareholder of the enterprise was the Kameyama family, and the president of the East Sea headquarters was named Kameyama Kyuji.
Kameyama Kyuji had a talented subordinate, including martial arts masters, medical experts, and even Onmyoji from the Nine Chrysanthemum School.
After reviewing the documents, Long Xiao asked curiously, "Director Lu, when did this Kameyama family enter China?"
Lu Tianxing sighed and said, "The Kameyama family entered China very early. As soon as diplomatic relations between the two countries were established, they sent people to accompany the diplomatic team into China and made substantial donations. Now, the Kameyama family is deeply entrenched in China, making them very difficult to deal with."
Directly uprooting the Kameyama family was practically impossible. Even if Long Xiao had the current strength, his influence was insufficient, and the resistance would be too great.
"Director Lu, while we cannot eradicate this tumor in a short period, we can start by targeting various industries and gradually reduce their influence in the East Sea."
Lu Tianxing sighed again and said, "That's the only way. Suppressing them through administrative means is basically impossible. To reduce their influence in the East Sea, we can only rely on the power of the people."
Long Xiao picked up the documents on the table and rubbed them with his hands, turning the papers instantly into powder.
"Director Lu, when dealing with the Island Nation people, I will act, and you will clean up. Don't worry, I won't make things too difficult for you."
A smile appeared on Lu Tianxing's face. "Good, Long Xiao, I've been waiting for you to say that. You just go ahead and do whatever you need to. Just give me a call when you need my help."
Long Xiao brewed some tea, and as he and Lu Tianxing chatted and drank tea, they waited for Xue Meiqin to finish bandaging the young man's wounds.
Half an hour later, the young man walked over with a smile on his face.
"Divine Doctor Long, it's truly strange. I've used all sorts of medicine, and my wound just wouldn't heal. After you treated it and applied the ointment you made, the wound scabbed over in a few minutes."
Long Xiao chuckled and said, "You call me a divine doctor, so of course my medicine is miraculous."
The young man glanced at Lu Tianxing, then shifted his gaze back to Long Xiao. "Divine Doctor Long, can I order a batch of the ointment you just used on me?"
The young man was a soldier, and Long Xiao believed the military had plenty of money. He feigned a bit of difficulty. "My medicine is very costly, so the price will be a bit higher for mass production."
"The price is not an issue. As for production, how about ten thousand boxes a month?"
The young man didn't ask the price, and just blurted out ten thousand boxes a month. Long Xiao was already ecstatic.
"Ten thousand boxes would cost seven to eight million in raw materials alone."
"That's fine. I'll give you ten million, as long as you can guarantee the supply."
Long Xiao nodded. "As long as there's money to buy raw materials, supply will be absolutely no problem."
The wound medicine used by Xinglin Grass Hall was refined by Long Xiao some days ago. Although it was the most ordinary wound medicine in the "Dragon Repository" medical text, its effectiveness surpassed high-end wound medicines on the market.
After the young man and Long Xiao agreed on ten thousand boxes of wound medicine per month, he, worried that Long Xiao might not have the funds to purchase raw materials, directly asked for his bank account number and prepaid him ten million.
"Today is the twenty-fifth. From now on, I'll send someone to pick up the medicine on the twenty-fifth of each month. What do you think, Divine Doctor Long?" the young man asked with a smile.
Long Xiao nodded. "Of course, no problem."
Long Xiao escorted Lu Tianxing and the young man out of Xinglin Grass Hall. As Lu Tianxing was about to get into the car, he said in a low voice, "Long Xiao, I only just realized today how well-suited you are for business."
Long Xiao gave an awkward smile. "I desperately need money, what else can I do?"
After seeing off Lu Tianxing and the young man, Long Xiao took Tong Hui to the medicine warehouse and opened the box that Lu Bonian had given him.
Seeing the old ginseng in the box, Long Xiao was so happy he almost jumped.
This old ginseng was over eight hundred years old, and could refine at least six "Longevity Pills."
There were six days until the monthly gathering of the East Sea Metaphysical community. Long Xiao had absorbed a lot of life force from everyone at the last gathering, and he wanted to refine a batch of "Longevity Pills" to compensate everyone.
When Jiang Ming delivered the medicine, he also brought three Polygonum multiflorum plants, only about five hundred years old, which could barely refine nine "Longevity Pills."
There were sixteen people at the last gathering in total. Excluding the two metaphysical masters from Hong Kong, there were fourteen locals.
The medicinal ingredients he had on hand could refine fifteen "Longevity Pills." After giving some away, he would have one left for himself.
Taking out the Polygonum multiflorum given by Jiang Ming, Long Xiao stated the names and dosages of the auxiliary medicines and asked Tong Hui to help him select them.
Soon, with Long Xiao's help, Tong Hui prepared the auxiliary medicines Long Xiao needed.
"Let's go, Tong Hui, I'll take you to refine medicine," Long Xiao said happily.
He didn't dare tell Tong Hui that he was refining "Longevity Pills," fearing that if others found out, it would bring trouble to Tong Hui.
The two went to the abandoned warehouse. Long Xiao directly lit the special gas stove for refining medicine, crushed the auxiliary medicines with his hands, and put them into the pressure cooker.
After adjusting the heat, Long Xiao began to explain the principles of refining medicine to Tong Hui. He told him that refining medicine didn't require rigid adherence to form, as long as the life force within the medicines could be extracted and incorporated into the refined pills.
The method of refining medicine was an external form; as long as the medicine could be refined to be rich in life force, nothing else mattered.
As time passed, the auxiliary medicines turned black and emitted a puff of smoke. Only then did Long Xiao crush the old ginseng and Polygonum multiflorum with his hands and add them to the pot.
Tong Hui watched, dumbfounded, as the entire refining process unfolded. Tong Hui had witnessed Long Xiao refine medicine once before, and Long Xiao had also taught him to refine medicine using traditional methods. He never expected that Long Xiao's refining method this time would be completely different from the last time.
When Long Xiao held the steaming hot pressure cooker with both hands and spun it at high speed, Tong Hui stared intently, trying to see exactly how Long Xiao was refining the medicine.
The light in the warehouse was not very good, but he soon saw a pale green aura flowing from Long Xiao's hands into the pressure cooker.
When the medicinal fragrance emanated, Long Xiao poured out the refined medicine, separating the medicine from the dregs. Tong Hui then asked, "Master, is the aura flowing from your hands the life force?"
This time, it was Long Xiao's turn to be surprised. Tong Hui's progress was too fast. He had only been cultivating "Xing Long Guan Qi" for a short time, and he could already see the life force between his hands.
"Tong Hui, your cultivation speed is truly incredible. You can see the life force in such a short time."
Receiving Long Xiao's affirmation, Tong Hui was also very pleased.
The two put the refined medicine into a small bottle. Long Xiao said, "Let's go to Mingyue's clinic. I'll teach you the method of observing qi for diagnosis."
