After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 131

Chapter 131: Selling Medicinal Formula
A lucrative business opportunity!

Upon hearing about money, Zhouzhou immediately turned her head and nodded vigorously, saying, “Yes, yes, yes!”

She was most interested in money!

Seeing her reaction, the corner of Ye Lingfeng’s lips curled up, and he took a step towards the exit. “Then let’s find a cafe to discuss in detail.”

Zhouzhou shook her head and said seriously, “No need to go to a cafe, it’s expensive. I’ll have my dad make coffee for you at home, and it’s free.”

Zhouzhou had been to a cafe once with Qin Lie when she accompanied him to the company. She had a sip and found that the bitter stuff was quite expensive. She thought medicine tasted better than that. The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was a waste.

Seeing her acting like a miser, Qin Lie couldn’t help but smile and looked at her with gentle eyes.

Ye Lingfeng also chuckled and said to Qin Lie, “Then I’ll trouble CEO Qin.”

The smile on Qin Lie’s face instantly vanished, and he glanced at Ye Lingfeng expressionlessly, pursing his lips. He then bent down, picked up Zhouzhou, and walked briskly towards the exit.

Ye Lingfeng followed a few steps behind and gestured to Chen Tuo, indicating for him to take Jonathan away first. Then he caught up with them.

By the roadside, Qin Lie sat in the car, watching their figures with a pensive expression.

Why did Ye Lingfeng arrest Jonathan? And where did those handcuffs come from?

While thinking about it, Ye Lingfeng opened the car door and climbed in. “I didn’t drive here, do you mind if I hitch a ride back with you?”

“Whatever.” Qin Lie withdrew his gaze indifferently, started the car, and soon arrived home.

Zhouzhou wore her little slippers and fetched coffee cups. She dragged a small stool and sat down by the coffee table, looking curiously at Ye Lingfeng. “Sharp Tongue Uncle, what big opportunity do you want to discuss with me? Is it a big business?”

“Yes.” Ye Lingfeng nodded. “Can your Hemostatic Pill be produced in large quantities?”

“Yes, Sharp Tongue Uncle, how many do you want?” Zhouzhou replied.

“How about starting with 5,000 pills? Is that okay?” Ye Lingfeng suggested.

5,000 pills? That’s a lot!

Zhouzhou looked down at her small arms and hands. She thought she would be exhausted after making that many.

But it’s all money.

Thinking about it, she nodded. “Okay.”

Noticing her movement, Ye Lingfeng pondered for a moment. “Alternatively, if you’re willing to sell the formula, you can set the price however you like.”

Sell the medicinal formula? Zhouzhou had never done that before.

Zhouzhou looked up at Qin Lie, seeking his help.

Qin Lie had just finished brewing coffee and poured a cup for Ye Lingfeng. He also brought a cup of fruit tea for Zhouzhou, filled with colorful dried fruits that looked attractive and tasted sour and sweet. Zhouzhou loved it.

Instead of directly saying if it was okay or not, Qin Lie asked, “What does Mr. Ye want to do with this? Sell it for money or help people?”

Ye Lingfeng looked at him and pondered for a moment. Then he spoke, “Help people, and make money too.”

“What kind of people do you want to help?”

“Not bad people.” Ye Lingfeng could only say that.

“Like Mr. Ye?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow and leaned back on the sofa, smiling nonchalantly. “Who in Jing City doesn’t know that I’m a murderer? Does CEO Qin think I’m a good person?”

Qin Lie remained silent, his gaze fixed on Ye Lingfeng.

As if he had been seen through, Ye Lingfeng’s expression didn’t change, but he became alert inside.

Qin Lie was never someone easily fooled.

Ye Lingfeng sat up slightly straighter. “Fine, let me be straightforward. It’s mainly for making money. Zhouzhou’s medicine is very effective, so there will always be people who want it. It can earn a lot of money. The medicine is good for stopping bleeding, so it’s also helping people.”

Zhouzhou had been listening to their conversation in a daze. Only when she heard this sentence did she finally understand. Curiously, she asked, “Sharp Tongue Uncle, do you also want to be a middleman and make a profit from the price difference?”

Upon hearing the term, Ye Lingfeng burst into laughter. “Something like that.”

“You can make the medicine, and I’ll wholesale it. Or you can sell me the medicinal formula directly. It’s up to you to decide.”

Zhouzhou couldn’t decide either, so she asked Qin Lie, “What does Dad say?”

“Do you want money or merit?” Qin Lie asked.

“Merit!” Zhouzhou didn’t hesitate. She had enough money, and with more merit, her lack of money would be resolved. Besides, it was all money in the end.

“Okay.” Qin Lie nodded, understanding what he meant. He said, “We’ll sell the medicinal formula, and as for the price, Zhouzhou, you can set it yourself.”

Zhouzhou nodded and said, “Sharp Tongue Uncle, can you guarantee that your medicine will only be sold to good people? No matter how much money the bad people offer, you won’t sell it to them.”

“I promise.” Ye Lingfeng raised his hand and solemnly swore.

“Then it’s settled.” Zhouzhou confirmed.

She ran to the study, took out pen and paper, and handed them to Qin Lie. She said, “You talk, I’ll write.” Then she handed the prescription to Ye Lingfeng and said, “Here you go, Sharp Tongue Uncle. This prescription was taught to me by my master, and my master didn’t ask for money from me, so I won’t accept yours. If you want to give something, you can donate it to our Taoist temple. Remember, our temple is called Sanqing Temple, don’t get it wrong.”

He didn’t expect her to say that.

Ye Lingfeng was slightly surprised and solemnly took it from her, saying, “Thank you, I will visit the temple.”

“That’s good.” Zhouzhou grinned and, after finishing her task, lowered her head to drink her fruit tea.

Suddenly, she remembered something and looked up. “Sharp Tongue Uncle, if you want to thank me, you can give me one of those golden handcuffs from your place.”

She liked everything made of gold!

Ye Lingfeng: “…That might require some effort on your part.”

“How can I do that?” Zhouzhou curiously asked.

Before Ye Lingfeng could respond, Qin Lie suddenly picked up Zhouzhou, patted her head, and sighed internally. Sometimes she was clever, and other times she was clueless.

If she wanted handcuffs, what else could she do but strive to do something bad?

He looked at Ye Lingfeng and spoke calmly, “Is there anything else, Mr. Ye?”

If there was nothing, he should leave quickly so as not to corrupt Zhouzhou.

Hearing the dismissal in Qin Lie’s words, Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, but he didn’t intentionally provoke him. He stood up properly and said, “Then I’ll take my leave. Zhouzhou, thank you.”

“You’re welcome. I also benefit from this.” She was a businesswoman and didn’t engage in losing deals. If she saved one more good person, she would accumulate more merits. It was a win-win situation.

After Ye Lingfeng left, Zhouzhou went to draw talismans and refine medicine.

Business was going well now, so she had to work hard.

Qin Lie also came to the study. His pen moved slightly on the paper, and in no time, something appeared on it.

It was the golden handcuffs he had seen today.

He took a photo and sent it to Qin Xu.

[Qin Lie: Second Elder Brother, do you recognize this?]

Qin Xu was free at the moment. When he saw what was on the photo, he was shocked and immediately called Qin Lie.

“Why are you suddenly asking about this? Is something wrong?”

Hearing the urgency and concern in his tone, Qin Lie said, “I’m fine. I just saw it by chance today. What’s wrong, Second Elder Brother? Does this handcuff have any other significance?”

He casually asked, but his brows were filled with curiosity.

“It’s not enough to just put it on your hand. Even I wouldn’t be able to save you then.” Qin Xu breathed a sigh of relief. “I don’t know much about it either, and even if I did, I can’t say much. Don’t ask too many questions.”

They had their own requirements. Some things could be said, while others couldn’t, and it was very strict. Even though he was his family, he couldn’t talk about everything.

Hearing this, Qin Lie’s eyes deepened. “If someone has this thing, are they a good person or a bad person?”

“A’lie, since when did you start categorizing people as simply good or bad?” Qin Xu didn’t directly answer, but he reminded, “Just stay away from them. But how did you come across them? Weren’t they in…”

He abruptly stopped and didn’t continue. “Anyway, just don’t conflict with them.”

Is that so? Perhaps this warning came too late.

Qin Xu had other matters to attend to and quickly hung up the phone.

Leaving Qin Lie alone in the study, the coffee on the table slowly cooled down.

He didn’t expect that his Second Elder Brother’s level was already an international criminal police officer, and there were things he couldn’t fully know. It showed a high level of confidentiality regarding this matter.

What kind of situation and what kind of people could it be?

What had happened to Ye Lingfeng over the past few years?
