Chapter 910: Nothing
“Yes, it is him,” Lu Xiufeng said. “At the banquet just now, I realized that whenever Miao Xihe spoke, his right hand would move a few times very regularly.”
“Maybe there are other reasons,” Yang Guanfeng said.
“Well, I analyzed it,” Lu Xiufeng said. “That aspect is the most likely. I’m about 90 percent certain. Some small details of a person’s activities best reflect a person’s inner world. Believe me, I am a professional in this respect.”
“Don’t be such a jerk,” Yang Guanfeng said. “Someone’s coming.”
“Ah, the taste is great!” Lu Xiufeng loudly exclaimed.
“Are my acting skills great?”
“Great, five stars,” Yang Guanfeng said.
“To be honest, the food here is really very delicious, and the rice wine was also delicious,” Lu Xiufeng said. “I have never had such good wine before. Even Maotai and Five Grains Liquid can’t be compared to it. Hey, did you drink it last time you came?”
“Yes, I had a little,” Yang Guanfeng said. “It is indeed very delicious.”
“Tell me the truth, can this wine really strengthen the loins?”
Several lines of irritation immediately appeared on Yang Guanfeng’s forehead.
“Why are almost all your words related to that topic?”
“Ah, you are not humorous at all. It is getting late. Let’s go to sleep. We have to do some sightseeing tomorrow.”
With that, Lu Xiufeng fell on the bed with a thump. Before long, he was snoring.
“Seriously?” Yang Guanfeng helplessly sighed. He shook his head and fell into bed with him, but he didn’t fall asleep for a long time.
Would they be able to find something this time? Would there be more accidents? There were many things to consider. Being in a foreign place, the other party’s attitude was not as friendly and peaceful as it appeared. How can he sleep so easily?
In a wooden house in the middle of the Valley of Thousands of Medicine…

“Master.”
“What are Lu Xiufeng’s origins?”
“He is a criminal investigation expert in the province. He is known as the best partner Yang Guanfeng has had. He has a high rate of solving cases. He is a talent who is registered in Jing.”
“Cooperate with their investigation. Let them investigate whatever they want,” Miao Xihe said. “How is the situation there?”
“Very well. Everything went smoothly.”
“That’s good.”
The night was quiet.
On Nanshan hill, thousands of miles away, a few flowers quietly bloomed in the herbal field.
The chants of scriptures sounded from the little hut.
The large dog, goshawk, the black snake quietly listened to the chanting and only rested when it stopped.
The next morning, the sky was not very clear.
In the town, the first batch of medicinal materials produced was loaded on a truck and on the road. It would be sold in southern areas.
Phew! The first batch of medicine has finally sold! The pharmaceutical company’s head of production breathed a sigh of relief.
He was from the south. He had been following the Zheng family for many years. Naturally, he knew of some internal news, including the fight between two Zheng brothers. Mr. Zheng was the loser. He had given up most of his family business and only kept the pharmaceutical factory. The young man also held the majority of the shares. If Mr. Zheng were to fail, it would mean that he would utterly fail. It would be hard for him to turn things around. Because he had followed him for such a long time ago and had been labeled, even if he had stayed in the original place, he would not be accepted. Therefore, he decided to follow Mr. Zheng.
To be honest, he did not like Lianshan’s town center. It was a small city in the north. The climate was relatively dry, and they mainly ate noodles. Be it the climate, environment or living habits, he needed to adapt again. These were secondary issues. The key problem was that the pharmaceutical factory was newly established. They had broken away from the huge system of the Zheng family and started a new enterprise. They needed to produce the medicines and sell them from scratch. The research and development of the medicine was already a difficult thing. But Mr. Zheng was indeed an extraordinary man. He was acquainted with the exceptional young doctor, hence, the first medicine was quickly developed. It was simply too easy. The first step was to sell it. Next came a more important step. They had to sell all the medicine that had been made. Otherwise, even if they could produce medicines with great efficacy, which were akin to an elixir of life, it would all be for naught. For these people, to put it bluntly, it was to make money.

The first batch of medicine had been produced days ago, but it had been piled up in the warehouse. He felt that something was not right. For a company to operate, they had to pay the workers and purchase raw materials. Furthermore, the medicinal materials they purchased were the best and purely wild grown. Their cost price was much higher than that of large-scale artificial breeding products. The equipment also was expensive, and they had to pay the workers. The factory was burning money. It would be fine if the products yielded profits in time. Otherwise, they could only wait for the doors to close.
I wonder how long it will take this medicine to be recognized by the market, and how goods its efficacy is.
This was a new medicine, and it was produced by an unknown pharmaceutical factory. There was bound to be a process for it to be accepted by users. If the efficacy was good and public relations had appropriate publicity for it, the time required would be shorter. If the efficacy was poor and publicity was not good enough, the medicine would be suspended.
Efficacy was the main thing, but it also depended on the advertising.
Fortunately, although Mr. Zheng had fallen out with his eldest brother, he still had some friends and channels, so the first batch of medicine had been sent out.
I hope it’s going to work on the first try!
In the morning, Wang Yao took the time to visit the factory in town. The production tasks there were not particularly heavy. Some of the equipment had already been stopped for cleaning and maintenance because there was a lot of medicine that had been produced and was being stored in the warehouse.
“Hello, Mr. Wang.” Upon hearing that Wang Yao had arrived, the person in charge hurriedly came in for fear of neglecting him.
“Don’t call me that in the future. I’m not used to it,” Wang Yao said.
He did not want too many people to know that he had such an identity.
“Then…”
“Call me Xiao Wang or just call me by my name,” Wang Yao said.
“How can I do that?” The person in charge hurriedly asked, “What are you talking about? If I called you that, even if you’re alright with it and don’t take it to heart, if Mr. Zheng were to know about it, I would probably have to pack my things and leave for good.”
“Can I call you Sir?” Wang Yao asked.
“Sir?”
“Yes, I’ll call you Dr. Wang.”
“Alright, it’s up to you,” Wang Yao said.
“We have just shipped a batch of medicine to the south,” the head of production said.
“New medicines are not easy to promote, are they?” Wang Yao asked. He knew a little bit about the market.
“Correct, it’s not easy to promote. Mr. Zheng’s family used to be experts in this field, but their relationship now is…”
“About that…” Wang Yao was in deep thought for a while. He could help a little with that.
“I’m leaving,” he said. “You go on with your work.”
“Alright, I’ll see you off.”
“No need.” Wang Yao waved with a smile. He went out the door, got his car, and returned to the mountain village.

The Elemental Arena
*A Rational-Adjacent litRPG Survival Series.* The time for the trials has come, pitting the mortal species of the galaxy against one another. By completing challenges, clearing dungeons, and defeating rival species, the players may forge themselves stronger and smarter. But only one species will be declared the winner. Earth has finally qualified... ...and participation is mandatory. A twenty-nine year old data entry clerk works together with a group of internationally diverse players to survive. Learning synergistic skills and using teamwork, can humanity achieve an upset? If they don't, their lives are forfeit. Author's note: Chapters will be anywhere from 6k to 10k in words, varying based on the plot beats instead of specific word counts. Realistic actions and teamwork will be important aspects of my story. I'm trying something a little different in writing a realism focused litRPG, hoping to capture the essence of how real people would react to their situation. People are complex and don't always get along. I don't recommend starting the series expecting wish fulfillment tropes just because it's tagged litRPG. It's a survival story with the game settings on Hell difficulty. The plot hasn't gotten there yet, but in the future of the series I want to recreate my nostalgia of forty person raids on Ragnaros, but with the high stakes of boss battles in Sword Art Online. I also love puzzle rooms so expect one of those each book. Warnings: mild PG-rated language, graphic violence and gore, and graphic medical content.

Project G00
|Nanopunk |Crafting | Detailed Science and experiments | Inner thoughts | Bio-Robots | Evolution | Infodumps | Tell not Show | Insane to Sane | Slow and Detailed Pace | Puddle to Unknown | Artificial Intelligence | Trans-humanism | Bad Jokes | Moving 'Dungeon' Core | Hi! I am G00. I am a project made by some weirdo. Some may refer to me as the wobbly thing in the fridge or the slimy thing in the ceiling. Others might tell you about that sticky thing inside your nose. In the end, they called me the Seed of Life, yet didn’t tell me what I was supposed to become. Furthermore, it just happens that this stage was the most miserable place to reincarnate... Reincarnate as in… What the hell did I become?! (Whispers) You are a puddle. A puddle? (Whispers) Yes. C’mon little guy, say your lines! You’re live right now! Welcome to puddle-springs aka the afterlife of a puddle. CUT! Eh? Why?! No edition or photoshop needed?! We’re short on puddle-staff. The camera is broken, I am broken, and you are broken. Wait! How can a puddle be broken? You are not a puddle, you are frozen yogurt. NOOOOOOOOOO! Additional summary: Spoiler: Spoiler Humanity has finally made the second step towards space. Many developments were taking place at the time this happened. All of them accomplished thanks to nanotechnology. Inventions regarding Artificial Intelligence and nanorobotics created the opportunity, a way to terraform planets by sending nanorobots to space. Their orders? Colonizing and preparing the new worlds before humanity's arrival, aka terraforming. Meet G00, a weird agglomeration of nanomachines. A bit stupid, but it's not because he was like that. The little guy... 'He' is really broken. The hardest start of a story is when language is oddly misunderstood, when you know nothing of the place you just arrived; when your companion is a buggy system, and when you have to repair yourself with whatever trash you can scavenge from your surroundings. All of this while you fight your worst enemy: potatoes? What will you do in an unfamiliar circumstance where nothing is what it seems and where you won't even understand the boring ramblings of a confused main character? Well, patience will... probably have a reward? Additional tags and disclaimers: Read before starting the story: Harem: Not included for the moment, depends on characters added, votes by readers, and things that happen on the go. Magic: Far away chapters maybe... as part of high level or non-understandable things by science. Slice of life: Probably some parts will include it. Disclaimer #1: Crazy amount of content about high-tech info-dumps, slow pace, starts with biology and nanotechnology. Might have some weird jokes and puns. Game bugs are also possible. Disclaimer #2: No puddles were harmed during the making of this story. No character is real, no real puddle was used as part of the cast. Character is stupid at the start on purpose but he will get beta and beta. All written content follows a logical approach no matter how stupid it appears to be, maybe… Because it’s just a raccoon splashing some cotton-candy over a puddle after it was thrown. Yup, a bully raccoon with rabies or so it seems.
