Supreme Grandpa Chapter 31
Advertisement
In Southern International Commodity Co., Ltd., in the office of the president, a strong medicinal scent drifted around gently.
"Husband, dad is too weird recently. He suddenly became a martial artist without a specific reason, what do you think about this?"
Gong Xueqing was talking while sorting the piles of medicinal materials. The last time she bought medicinal materials, she bought many of them. At this moment, those materials were piled up in this office.
"I think it has something to do with Third Brother," Yang Haonan said silently after a while of quiet. He was fiddle with an induction cooker at the moment, and there was a pressure cooker on it. The smell of medicine in the air was exactly what came out of this cooker.
"Third Brother?" Gong Xueqing paused her action. "It's really possible. He did not even come to dad's birthday. From the beginning to the end, dad was not unhappy, and he became a martial artist at that. He also gave all those old friends a shock. Except for the help of Third Brother, this situation couldn't be explained clearly at all."
"Forget it, let's not care about this for the time being. How are the medicinal materials sorted?"
Yang Haonan opened the lid of the pressure cooker, and the fragrance became more intense instantly.
Gong Xueqing: "I have combined a few more medicinal materials. Do you want to try again?"
Yang Haonan nodded, "Okay, this pot is almost ready. When the temperature cools down, we can roll it into a small ball. After that, we can find some small animals to experiment with it."
Gong Xueqing suddenly felt that it was weird, "Is alchemy really done like this? Isn't it too random and casual?"
"What? If you don't do it like this, could it be that you want to go to the wilderness, find a pile of firewood, find a big cauldron, and endure the heat while stirring it? That is too boring and takes too much time."
"Alchemy is to fully mix the properties of the medicines so that they can produce unique chemical reactions when they come into contact with each other, and then combine the newly formed substances into small balls. Of course, molding them into squares is also not a problem. Obviously, science and technology have improved significantly, so why bother with the primitive methods?"
Yang Haonan said earnestly to his wife, "Besides, I feel the smell of this medicine is really comfortable. I really did not know this before, it turns out that alchemy is really fun, vast, and magical!"

"It's also very interesting to combine medicinal materials. Combining different medicinal materials together will change the medicinal properties. These have to be recorded at that time. Whoever offends us in the future, if they come to eat in our restaurant, we can deliberately mix medicinal properties with the dishes for them to eat for free. After those properties clash with the dish, I bet those people will be poisoned to death," Gong Xueqing nodded seriously and thought about countermeasure against her potential enemies.
When Yang Haonan heard this, his heart trembled involuntarily, and he glanced at Gong Xueqing vigilantly.
He then thought to himself, "I peeped at the little secretary before, so I absolutely can't let her discover it. Otherwise, I will not feel at ease when eating at home in the future!"
…
"Hmm, this guy Haonan is really talented in alchemy. Finished products have already appeared gradually. Next, he only needs to guide his company to reform and develop towards the pills, elixirs, and such. By then, his influence value will inevitably rise greatly."
Yang Song was very pleased with his second son. He was no longer optimistic about the business of daily necessities.
With the continuous exploration of the abyss, the number of martial artists was rapidly increasing every year. And once a person practiced martial arts, his demand for many daily necessities will drop rapidly.
In addition, as long as a powerful martial artist appears in Yang Family, the Yang Family behind him would begin to rely on his power and expand the business to all walks of life.
Daily necessities were a profiteering industry without much technical content. As long as people bought some production equipment, they could start doing it. So more and more companies had joined in. It was also normal for Yang Haonan's company to fail to compete in this situation.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, speeding up the transformation, selling medicinal pills that were useful for martial artists, was the only way to get rich! After all, it was really easy for warriors to make money.
"But I have to find a time to talk to Haonan. Many production lines at home have stopped, and it would be more appropriate to use them to make alchemy. In addition, the patent protection of the pills must also be done well. The Yang Family is currently very strong in Tong City, but looking at the entire country, it is still so small and weak like a bug. Once we gain too much profit, it may cause jealousy to appear, and thereby, creating unnecessary troubles."

Yang Song quickly made a general plan in his heart. With Tong City as the cornerstone, he first had to steadily develop and stabilize, and wait for his third son to return as a Grandmaster before starting to expand.
…
After inspecting the situation of Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan, Yang Song reviewed the situation of some other members of the family. Yang Mei'er now held a martial technique boon every day and read with gusto, and from time to time, she made a few gestures.
As for the study and analysis of the technique, she had done a great job. In the future, she could be cultivated as a master of techniques.
Once a technique was created and discovered by the country, and its function was recognized, if it was popularized throughout the country and even the world, the influence it would bring was self-evident.
The rest of the family members, although generally had mediocre qualifications, still had some outstanding talents. It was just that they had not used their talents yet.
"I can't let them go on like this. I have to find an opportunity to hold a family meeting. After I figure out the talents of each junior, I will let them work towards their own talents. Otherwise, the current efforts will be in vain."
After more than an hour, after learning all about the family members, Yang Song made a decision in his heart.
Since his body turned weak previously, he had never convened a family meeting again. Now that his body had recovered, the system had issued the main task and came along with the mysterious rewards at that, family assembly was an imperative thing to gradually accomplish the task.
"But, what reason should I use so that everyone won't doubt my ability and can develop in the direction of their corresponding talents according to my requirements?"
This made Yang Song distressed.
However, when he turned his head inadvertently and saw Xiao Laoxu whose whole body had undergone a transformation, a light bulb lit up above his head immediately, "There is a way! Little Laoxu has a talent for treasure hunting. When the time comes, I will let him help and I will say to everyone that his mouse can see everyone's talent!"
"Lord, Lord… squeak!"
Seeing Yang Song smiling at him, Xiao Laoxu waved his paws and made such sounds out of blue.
"Huh?" Yang Song's pupils shrank and he was surprised, "After an advancement, you can start speaking?"
"Squeak! Lord, squeak!" Xiao Laoxu's voice was intermittent, and he was not so proficient.
Yang Song raised his brows, "Call me Master."
"Lord, Master… squeak!" Xiao Laoxu's voice shook slightly as if he tried too hard to speak.
Yang Song was shocked again after hearing this.
In fact, abyssal beasts were also classified!
Ordinary rank abyssal beasts could not speak the human language at all. Only the Beast King could break the racial restrictions and speak the human language. And this level beast was a dominant-level existence in the abyss. But they generally only sat on one side to command a domain, and they rarely appeared.
Now, Xiao Laoxu, who had just become a Soldier rank beast, could speak human language. This was completely a world away from common sense!
If this spread out, it would cause a huge sensation on an international scale.
If the country had a sudden whim and asked Xiao Laoxu to be turned over for research purposes, wouldn't Yang Song suffer a lamentable loss?
So Yang Song quickly recovered his calmness. After looking at Xiao Laoxu, he said, "Great, as a reward for your ability to speak, I will now ask someone to buy some kindergarten and elementary school textbooks and workbooks for you. If you have time, you can read more and do more exercises."
"Also, that fact that you can talk, except in front of me, don't disclose it to other people. Otherwise, it will cause major trouble for both you and me, remember?"
"Squeak, yes, Master!" Xiao Laoxu nodded repeatedly. His two eyeballs were turning like that of a thief.
He looked forward to the so-called "textbooks" that Yang Song said, thinking it might be a treasure in the human world.
As long as he finished studying, he could talk and read like humans. If this was not a treasure, then what was?
And Yang Song did not delay either. He quickly made a call to his grandson, Yang Mingfei.
