Master of Ten Thousand Foxes

Chapter 723: Chapter 387: Separating Immortal Grass with Pill Fire (2)

"So this is the so-called Immortal Grass separation?

"There is no Immortal Grass industry chain in the present world.

"I’ll have to use a clumsy method to personally separate each type of Immortal Grass.

"I wonder how long this will take."

Just then, he heard the footsteps of his apprentices.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Aow aow aow!"

"Ying ying ying!"

Then Bai Liandan’Er appeared, bringing along Small and Big Eyes and Butterfly Knot. The three foxes were carrying three bamboo baskets filled with various herbs Bai Mo had specified!

The three baskets were placed on the table, and the three foxes "swish swish swish" jumped into their master’s arms, nuzzling their heads against Bai Mo’s chest.

Bai Mo stroked the chubby necks of his three apprentices.

"Alright, all fifty types of Immortal Grass are here.

"You rest a bit, don’t worry about me, go organize the warehouse together.

"This cultivation... it’s hard to say how long exactly it will take."

If a pattern can be found in the subsequent separation and cultivation, perhaps this separation cultivation can end early.

But it’s also possible that the separation of different Immortal Grass really has no commonality or pattern, and can only be learned stubbornly, one by one.

Bai Mo was mentally prepared.

The three foxes were not worried.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Aow aow aow!"

They were confident that their master wouldn’t take too long with this.

Bai Liandan’Er felt slightly downhearted.

It pondered a little more and realized it wasn’t realistic for their master to stay in this warehouse for over nine hundred days.

It decided to work more efficiently every day while the master was around to save more time and come to find him!

Thinking of this, it was impressed with its wit and cunning, tilting its head and grinning slyly.

...

A day passed in a hurry.

In the dormitory hall, the foxes were developing a new chocolate Autumn Pear Paste, bubbling away in the Alchemy Furnace.

"This taste... is too weird!"

Bai Mo certainly never imagined chocolate could one day pair with pears!

But seeing his apprentices surrounding the Alchemy Furnace in multiple layers, each sniffing the aroma with evident enjoyment, Bai Mo decided to ignore it.

He sat at the bedside, accompanied by Boba Tea and Pudding Tea, and lowered his head, holding a tablet, "swish swish swish" writing furiously.

"Today, separated fifty types of herbs in one day.

"So far, no pattern has been found.

"But researching the transformation of ordinary herbs in high-temperature environments is really meaningful."

Bai Mo had an intuition... that studying the changes of ordinary herbs in high temperatures might provide some insight?

In any case, the experimental center at the current world’s pharmaceutical factory focusing on the study of ordinary herbs under high temperature needs to be established quickly, and experiments must begin soon!

...

Whew...

Amidst the brisk autumn wind, the Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory was bustling with preparation.

This place was originally an abandoned factory, but the workshops, office buildings, and such were all well-preserved.

"Workshops Three and Four need to be temperature and humidity controlled; the existing airtightness isn’t sufficient and the renovations are underway.

"The drying production line in Workshop Five is in place, and the engineers sent by the manufacturer are debugging based on our requirements.

"I’ll make sure to hand them one-third of the final payment once I conduct the acceptance inspection.

"After official production for one month, I’ll give them another third of the final payment.

"After half a year of official production, I’ll settle the payment completely."

Chen Yuanlin, with his bald head shining, was dressed in suit and leather, walking in the office building’s hallway, reporting the work to Bai Mo.

They stopped at a hallway window, gazing over the bustling factory area through the glass.

Bai Mo didn’t quite understand all this chaos, but listened a bit, felt there was no issue, and agreed.

After Chen Yuanlin left, Professor Hong approached.

"Expert Bai Mo, that project you mentioned before, researching the transformation of plants under high temperature, may be challenging...

"Among the companies capable of handling this in the Jiuzhou Region, there are only three.

"But after talking to them, I found these three companies are not willing to take this on.

"For one thing, what you’re developing isn’t universal; once created, only we would buy it, and it wouldn’t sell elsewhere.

"Moreover, all three companies are quite busy, with their schedules packed, full of orders.

"This..."

Bai Mo frowned.

The fox apprentice Lemon Tea under Bai Mo’s arm also furrowed its brows with its master.

"Maybe adding more money would work?"

Lemon Tea puffed out its chest, spreading its fox claws in an unconcerned, carefree gesture!

"Aow aow aow!"

The master said that all expenses from this factory could be reimbursed by the Immortal Committee, no shortage of funds!

Professor Hong frowned.

"Um... adding funds... is actually quite tricky.

"The first batch of our factory’s goods hasn’t been produced yet.

"The allocated funds are pretty much spent.

"If we want to apply again... well... the overall fund pool for Shangjing this month has nearly bottomed out..."

Bai Mo understood that the factory and the North Suburb Base were peer units, directly managed by Shangjing, getting funds directly from it.

The key problem was...

Bai Mo checked his phone, looking at the date.

"Isn’t it only the 5th?

"Right at the start of the month, Shangjing’s fund pool is already empty?"

Professor Hong mumbled with a downcast face.

"This... has always been the case... the fund pool goes bankrupt every month.

"Moreover, it goes bankrupt at the beginning of every month.

"If we want to apply again, we can only wait till next month’s start and scramble quickly."

Bai Mo rested his hand on the windowsill, sighing.

The fox apprentice Lemon Tea mimicked its master’s sigh.

Reality is always heavier than ideals.

Difficulties are always more than anticipated.

"How about spending the bonus on my card?"

Bai Mo previously received substantial bonuses for several projects, and as the projects ran smoothly, bonuses continued to be credited to his card, steadily increasing.

In fact, Bai Mo rarely checked that card and didn’t even know how much was left on it.

While hesitating, he suddenly noticed downstairs, outside, a black Benz wanting to drive in, stopped by security.

He saw the Benz door open, and an elderly man in colorful casual attire, wearing sunglasses, got out, looked around, saw Bai Mo upstairs, and waved suddenly! Shouting from afar!

"Expert Bai Mo!"

The newcomer was Master Chong!

...

In the office.

Master Chong sat beside an old table, feeling the rough lacquer surface.

"Hey, Expert Bai Mo, it seems you’re not living a spacious life here, hahaha.

"I heard you’re building a factory, so I came right away!

"I heard you’re producing something, a Snow Lotus Qi Boosting Soup that can extend human lifespan?"

Bai Mo sat next to him, smiling and also feeling the rough tabletop.

Upon hearing Master Chong’s words, he was slightly surprised.

"How did you know that?"

The news about Snow Lotus Qi Boosting Soup was quite confidential, even within the Immortal Committee, not many knew.

Master Chong grinned.

"I didn’t know originally. A few customers came asking me, that’s how I knew. Hehe.

"How about it, do you need my help in shipping this?"

Bai Mo had great faith in Master Chong’s abilities!

In previous projects, collaborating with Master Chong led to substantial profits!

Everyone involved in the projects, researchers, workers, etc., received considerable bonuses!

The Snow Lotus Qi Boosting Soup though... Bai Mo took out his phone and messaged Fang Xiaoyu, busy in the office.

[Do we have the right to sell this Snow Lotus Qi Boosting Soup in the market?]

Not long after, he received a reply.

[The prior document from the Immortal Committee stated that every thousand units of raw materials provided to us required 600 units of finished product, a 60% yield rate to qualify, allowing for partial material loss.]

[If from every thousand units of raw material, more than 600 units are produced while maintaining compliance, it can be sold externally.]

Bai Mo smiled broadly.

"Well, that’s pretty good.

"Finances should be easier."

He looked up at Master Chong.

"Just a wait of... half a month, then when the finished products roll off the line, I’ll hand it to you."

Master Chong nodded, not really excited, as if he had anticipated this.

"Well, that’s great, hehe."

He smiled, took a sip of tea, and then fished out a card from his pocket, placing it on the table and pushing it towards Bai Mo.

"With the new factory built, I don’t know if Expert Bai Mo is financially tight.

"Our company doesn’t hold fixed assets, all we have are liquid funds.

"Use this for the factory first."

Bai Mo glanced at the card, accepted it without refusal, and took a card out of his wallet, stacking the two cards together.

The two cards feel light but the numbers inside are lengthy!

The funds for buying experimental equipment should be sufficient!
