Fang Qiu was also quite impressed when he saw He Xue’s competence.
He also silently gave himself a pat on the back for the way he managed to poach her from afar.
As shareholders of the company, Zhu Benzheng and the other two could not remain idle even though they were incredibly rich after receiving their dividends. Having such a huge fortune to squander, they would become useless if they merely sat there doing nothing.
Fang Qiu managed to satisfy the three boys’ wishes. He sent them to follow He Xue to gain experience and learn how to manage the company. They could master how to deal with various kinds of situations so as to lay a foundation for their future development.
Although He Xue was older than the three of them, she was good-looking and had a perfect figure. The three of them admired her greatly. They could barely take their eyes off her when they first met her.
In this case, after being instructed by Fang Qiu, the three of them were overjoyed and accompanied He Xue cheerfully, longing to stay with her every day.
Today, it was time for the preselling of Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill.
On this day, there were far more people than before on the official website of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation.
That was because today was not only the preselling day of Trillium Root-Securing Pill which was all the rage, but also the first day of preselling of Hua Yuan’s new product—Life-prolonging Earth Pill.
Everyone was incredibly curious about Life-prolonging Earth Pill. They were eager to see whether it had a better effect than Trillium Root-Securing Pill.
An hour before the start of the preselling, the official Weibo account of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation announced in advance. “The preselling quantity for both Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill is 37,500 each. I hope that all of you will be able to get it.”
At 12 midnight, the preselling officially began!
Everyone was on a wild buying spree!
However, before some people could even get to the purchase page of the website, the number of products had already been reduced to zero.
In only five seconds, all 37,500 sets of Trillium Root-Securing Pill and 37,500 sets of Life-prolonging Earth Pill were sold out. Not a single one was left.
The speed of purchase was amazingly fast.
Countless people waited in front of their computers for a whole day but failed to purchase even one pack. They were so annoyed that they almost smashed their computers.
“What the fu*k! I failed again!”
“What kind of damn server is this? Every time I open it, they are sold out!”
“F*ck, why can’t you try your best to produce more? Release more for sale. If I fail to preorder all the time, how am I supposed to buy it?”
On the Internet, numerous people were furious because of this.
People sent all kinds of posts and on Weibo in order to vent their dissatisfaction and anger.
When Yang Ningyuan saw this outcome, he smiled delightedly.
“Just as I expected.”
Seeing another large sum of money coming in, Yang Ningyuan said happily, “As expected, the Life-prolonging Earth Pill did not affect the sales of Trillium Root-Securing Pill. Instead, it made these two products even more popular.”
Yang Ningyuan immediately took out his mobile phone and called Fang Qiu.
“Hello?” Fang Qiu was about to meditate. In the past few days, because of the expansion of the cultivation base, he had been busy, and he had forgotten about the first preselling of Life-prolonging Earth Pill.
“It was crazy!”
On the other side of the phone, Yang Ningyuan laughed and said, “Life-prolonging Earth Pill sold out crazily. Guess what happened to the first preselling tonight. Together with Trillium Root-Securing Pill, the two products were sold out in five seconds. Not a single pack was left.”
“Really?” Fang Qiu was also shocked.
Five seconds? What kind of speed was this?
In the blink of an eye, they had sold 75,000 sets.
Yang Ningyuan asked with a smile, “How about this? I’ll buy another piece of land for you, okay?”
“Things will reverse if you go to the extremes.”
Fang Qiu was speechless and said, “Only by keeping people in suspense can you stay fresh.”
“You’re right.” Yang Ningyuan nodded and said, “Next, we just need to maintain this trend to prevent the market from being saturated. After all, the harder it is to get, the more popular it will be.”
The next day, the news that Trillium Root-Securing Pill and the Life-prolonging Earth Pill were sold out in five seconds was released. The official Weibo of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation also reposted it.
On Weibo, there was the same piece of news everywhere.
There was no doubt that everyone was astounded when they saw this news.
75,000 sets of health products were sold out in five seconds. In this way, it only took Yang Ningyuan five seconds to gain 100 million.
Life-prolonging Earth Pill was more expensive than Trillium Root-Securing Pill. That was to say, Yang Ningyuan had earned more than 100 million yuan in five seconds!
“What the f*ck! This is simply daylight robbery!”
“Oh my God, based on this rate, if Yang Ningyuan earns 100 million each day, he will be able to become the richest man in Huaxia in six or seven years!”
“What the f*ck. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have sold the shares of Taikang and Siqi. If I had kept them until now, I would have become a millionaire.”
“Siqi and Taikang have merged. When will Hua Yuan’s stock be listed? I’m waiting to buy it!”
For a moment, the investors were anxious.
In this situation, there was no need to analyze the stock at all. As long as Hua Yuan opened for trading, there would definitely be several upward trends limits. So long as the stock was open for purchasing, they would buy it instantly.
Moreover, with Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation’s news, the stock of other pharmaceutical companies that cooperated with them also rose. Especially those companies that specialized in the production of auxiliary medicinal materials, their stock prices soared all the way.
Those pharmaceutical companies which did not cooperate with Hua Yuan were both envious and speechless!
“Should we sell medicinal materials only instead of producing drugs?”
In the office of the cultivation base of Beijiang, looking at the news that Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill were all the rage, on her mobile phone, He Xue felt a little reluctant and said, “What we have is the core competitiveness. Why don’t we do it instead of letting them make the money?”
Fang Qiu said with a faint smile, “Actually, I gave him those two medicine formulas.”
“What?” He Xue was shocked and hurriedly asked, “How much did you sell them for?”
“For free,” Fang Qiu replied.
Staring at Fang Qiu as if she was looking at either a monster or a fool, He Xue was silent for a long while. Then she opened her mouth, “I’ve met a lot of prodigals, but I’ve never met such a prodigal like you!”
“Relax.” Fang Qiu smiled blandly and said, “Only when the predecessors plant a tree can the later generations take advantage of the shade.”
He Xue’s eyes lit up when she heard that and she immediately asked, “Do you mean that you have a better formula than Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill?”
“More than that.”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “There is another type of medicine.”
“Wow.” He Xue stared at Fang Qiu with her beautiful eyes and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so sophisticated at such a young age. Since that’s the case, I can rest assured. It seems that I’m really going to make a fortune with my 5% of shares.”
Fang Qiu grinned.
“Beep, beep, beep…”
However, hardly had he laughed out loud when his phone rang.
He took out his phone and saw that it was from Zhu Benzheng.
Fang Qiu answered the phone.
“Fang Qiu, we’re in trouble. The cultivation area has been besieged.”
Zhu Benzheng’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
“I’ll be right there!” Fang Qiu answered and hastily hung up. He stood up and walked out of the room.
“What happened?” He Xue asked.
“There’s a problem at the cultivation area.” Fang Qiu replied, “Someone seems to be making trouble.”
As they were talking, Fang Qiu rushed out of the office and headed for the cultivation base.
He Xue followed closely behind.
Soon, they went out of the office, bypassed the cultivation warehouse and saw the situation at the cultivation area.
Fang Qiu took a closer look.
At this time, there were already a lot of people gathering outside the cultivation area.
Judging from their clothes, they were all locals.
“What’s going on?” He Xue frowned.
“Let’s take a look.” Fang Qiu took out the mask from his trouser pocket and walked toward the crowd, while putting on the mask.
Beside him, He Xue nodded.
She knew that the reason why Fang Qiu wore the mask was that he didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Since these people dared to come here to make trouble, they must be fearless. Once they saw that the boss here was Fang Qiu, they would definitely try their best to make a scene. They would probably claim that Fang Qiu bullied people and things like that. In that case, it would create a scandal. Therefore, it was indeed a good decision for Fang Qiu to conceal his identity.
“What’s going on?” Coming to the crowd, Fang Qiu, who was wearing a mask, went straight to Zhao Shanlin who was in the front.
“These people are the local riffraff!”
Mr. Zhao was so irritated that he pointed at the group of people and said, “They are simply making trouble for no reason.”
Zhu Benzheng added, “These people said that this is the land of their hometown and they claim that our cultivation base encroached on their land and they are here to make trouble.”
Before Zhu Benzheng could finish his explanation about the situation, the leader of those people immediately stood up and shouted, “This is our land. Get out of our territory. We won’t allow you to take up our land, not a single spot!”
“Get out, get out…”
A large group of people behind him immediately raised their arms and shouted loudly. All of them were holding sticks and hammers in their hands as if they were going to fight.
“Do you think this is your land?” Fang Qiu understood that these people were here to blackmail them, so he said directly, “If it’s your land, please take out your land deeds. Then I’ll move out immediately. If you can’t show me the deeds, get out of here!”
“What land deed? We don’t know anything about that.” The leader glared at Fang Qiu with a fierce look and said, “We grew up here. We all know that this land belongs to us. Don’t use any talk about deeds to intimidate me. I have endless ways to stop you from working here. Now you have two choices. You can either return our land or pay us rent!”
“Blackmailing me?” Fang Qiu sneered.
“So what if I am?”
The leader sneered and said, “If you want to work here, just do as I say. Otherwise, I will not let you continue working here!”
“You’re so bold. Have you called the police?” Fang Qiu took out his phone from his pocket, ready to call the police directly.
Unexpectedly, this group of people had no intention of stopping him. On the contrary, they sneered and waited, seemingly not afraid at all.
Soon, the police arrived. There were only two or three of them. After all, this was a remote desert area. There were only five or six people in the whole police station. It was already good that two or three of them could turn up.
But there were at least 30 ruffians here, all of whom were armed with deadly weapons. It was obvious at a glance that they could not be suppressed by the police.
