The Rogue Villager Chen Erbao

Lin Zhiqing wrote down all the contact information and hugged Chen Erbao's arm.

"Er Bao, my brother gets things done, doesn't he?"

"Not bad, not bad at all. My big brother-in-law is definitely efficient!"

Chen Erbao complimented.

Lin Zhiqing lightly patted the back of his hand.

"Who's your big brother-in-law... I haven't agreed to that yet!"

"Hehe, it's too late even if you don't agree. You're already on my pirate ship!"

"In your dreams..."

After laughing and joking for a bit, the two of them stopped by a small roadside stir-fry restaurant for a quick bite, then drove the Land Rover to the factory in the suburbs.

The factory's facilities and machinery were all in place, forming a complete assembly line from production to packaging.

Things went smoothly. Chen Erbao signed his name directly on the contract, then took Lin Zhiqing to the pharmaceutical bureau.

Chen Erbao decided to invest three million for the initial registered capital.

In fact, according to the records in the Joyful Technique, the beauty ointment only required some common Chinese medicinal herbs that weren't very old. The cost was pitifully low, but most importantly, the effects were outstanding!

So, that much capital wasn't really necessary.

Chen Erbao was the company's legal representative and its sole owner.

With that, everything was pretty much settled.

Chen Erbao gave Lin Zhiqing a list of the medicinal herbs he needed. The total value was only a few hundred thousand, and with Medicine King Hall's resources, they could be gathered by the next day.

'I have the product, the company, and the factory. What else am I missing?'

Chen Erbao thought for a moment and realized what was missing!

He still needed a professional manager!

He couldn't stay in Hongyuan City forever. He had to find a reliable director to oversee the factory here, and he also had to figure out a sales strategy.

But there was no rush for that.

Chen Erbao told Lin Zhiqing his thoughts, and she suggested,

"I actually have someone in mind for a professional manager."

"Who?"

"A senior of mine from university. She graduated many years ago and has been a professional manager ever since. She can not only manage the factory but also contribute ideas for sales. If we can get her to come, it would be a huge win!"

When Chen Erbao heard she was from Binhai University, he nodded immediately.

"She'd be willing to come to a small, newly established company like ours?"

Lin Zhiqing grinned.

"Before, she definitely might not have come. But I heard a while ago that her boss tried to pressure her into sleeping with him. She refused and quit, so she's just idling at home now. She should be willing to consider it."

Chen Erbao had no objections and quietly watched Lin Zhiqing make the call.

He didn't really care whether she came or not; he was just a little curious.

'If someone tried to force her, she must be really pretty...'

Of course, he didn't mean anything by it. It was purely out of curiosity!

"Hello, Sister Xiaoqing..."

The call connected, and Lin Zhiqing cradled her phone, chattering away.

The two of them talked for a full twenty minutes. Chen Erbao was getting sleepy waiting in the car by the time Lin Zhiqing finally hung up, a smile on her face.

"It's a done deal! She's coming over from Binhai tomorrow!"

"Great. I need to go back and fine-tune the ointment. If all goes well, I can have the finished product ready within ten days."

Chen Erbao planned to make a dozen or so trial samples first and then let the higher-ups at Medicine King Hall take a look.

That's right, he wanted to ride on Medicine King Hall's coattails for his pharmaceutical company's business.

Only by letting the people from Medicine King Hall see for themselves that the cosmetic was truly effective could he invite them to co-brand it. Then, by leveraging Medicine King Hall's reputation, it would definitely sell.

Lin Zhiqing's expression was a bit hesitant.

"My senior is very pretty. If you dare to get any funny ideas, I'll..."

She made a scissor gesture with her fingers and threateningly moved it toward Chen Erbao's crotch.

A shiver went down Chen Erbao's spine, and he quickly shook his head.

"Even a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its own burrow. I would never do something like that."

"You can't eat the grass outside the burrow either!"

"Then who's going to give me grass?"

"Me..."

Only after saying it did Lin Zhiqing realize the implication. Her face turned beet red, and she raised a small fist as if to hit him.

Chen Erbao grabbed her slender wrist and placed it on his chest, chuckling.

"Don't worry. Your senior is my senior. I'll definitely respect her and offer her the highest possible salary!"

"That's not necessary. Just a normal salary is fine."

Lin Zhiqing lifted her hand and brushed her hair to one side.

Chen Erbao answered a phone call and learned that Medicine King Hall had already prepared all the medicinal herbs.

Since everything was ready, Chen Erbao decided not to spend the night in the city. He would take the herbs back to Bailong Village tonight, create a few samples of the cosmetic tomorrow, and then let the people from Medicine King Hall take a look.

Lin Zhiqing had to stay in the city tonight; she needed to go to the airport tomorrow to pick up her senior.

"I'll take you back to your hotel first."

Chen Erbao took Lin Zhiqing back to her hotel, made another trip to Medicine King Hall, and then drove home with the herbs that same night.

It wasn't until after eleven at night that Chen Erbao got home. He parked the car, took the herbs to his room, and fell straight asleep.

He got up early the next morning. First, he went through his daily set of boxing forms to warm up. Then he laid out all the medicinal herbs he had brought back last night in the courtyard and began to prepare them.

"Er Bao, breakfast is ready."

Fang Yun had made breakfast and came over to call him.

"What are all these herbs in the courtyard for?"

Fang Yun asked, looking at the courtyard full of herbs.

Chen Erbao washed his hands.

"I'm planning to open a cosmetics company. These are for formulating the cosmetics."

"You even know how to make cosmetics!"

Fang Yun was very surprised. She felt that this college student, Chen Erbao, was truly capable and knew how to do everything.

'Are all college students this amazing?'

"I read about it in a medical text. I'm just giving it a try. The main reason is that the back mountain project will take at least half a year to show results, so I need to get some other business going."

Fang Yun didn't understand any of this, so she could only show her concern for Chen Erbao in his daily life.

"Brother Da Bao, please keep a close eye on the back mountain project for the next few days. I have other things to take care of."

Chen Erbao said to Chen Dabao.

"Leave it to me, don't you worry. I'll go check on it every day."

Chen Dabao said in his gruff voice.

He wasn't great at using his head, but he had no problem handling simple tasks.

After breakfast, Chen Erbao went to the backyard, recalled the formulation chart from the Joyful Technique, and began to work.

First, he ground the various required herbs into a powder. Then he added fresh water and mixed it. The final and most crucial step was to infuse it with Spiritual Qi.

As a brilliant light bloomed, a thick, mud-like substance appeared in the bowl.

"Brother Er Bao, it smells so good! What are you making?"

Just as he finished, Lin Rui pushed the door open and came in. She sniffed the fragrance in the air and asked with a curious look on her face.

Chen Erbao was just looking for someone to test it on, and Lin Rui had arrived at the perfect time.

"Xiaorui, come here. Big bro has something good to show you!"

Chen Erbao pulled Lin Rui into the room with a mysterious expression on his face.

Lin Rui thought Chen Erbao wanted to get active in broad daylight again and was feeling a bit shy, but then she saw him pick up the bowl and lean in close.
