I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"I asked, but he won't give it to me!"

Zheng Qiuyi looked at Zheng Shaoqing expectantly, "Brother, Qin Ge said I should ask you for money. He said if you don't give it to him, he'll beat you up!"

Zheng Shaoqing: "..."

Zheng Hongye, standing to the side, was speechless. What kind of nonsense was this? Was this some kind of childish talk?

But thinking about it carefully, it seems like we still have to pay this money!

It was rare for the father and son to think on the same page.

Zheng Hongye said, "Qiuyi, I can give you the money, but you have to tell us what kind of company you want to start and what it will do, right?"

"Biotechnology, making vaccines!" Zheng Qiuyi didn't quite understand Qin Ge's idea either, and she knew nothing about this field.

But she felt that Qin Ge must have a reason for saying that, otherwise how could Qingcheng Beauty have been established?

That guy is pretty serious when he's not acting crazy. He can be a bit cheeky, but he never hesitates to do things properly.

"Vaccines?" Zheng Hongye asked thoughtfully. "You didn't start researching and producing vaccines because you saw Beidu was under lockdown, did you?"

"Isn't this ridiculous!"

Do you know how long the shortest research cycle for a vaccine can take?

Do you know how many researchers and how much research funding are needed?

"By the time you figure it out and can mass-produce it, it'll be too late!"

"Most importantly, the Zhao family has already developed a targeted vaccine for this outbreak in Beidu, and it's already in mass production!"

He suddenly changed the subject, "Qiuyi, could you contact Qin Ge and tell him I'd like to invite him to dinner, to meet him?"

"This..." Zheng Qiuyi stammered, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"Don't be so embarrassed!" Zheng Hongye said sternly. "What, they're about to kidnap my daughter, and I can't even see them?"

"Is Qin Ge really that unworthy?"

"No, that's not it..." Zheng Qiuyi's voice trailed off, her eyes darting around, "Dad, you're so pretentious, I'm afraid he'll hit you..."

Zheng Hongye: "..."

"I'm not joking." If her father dared to put on airs in front of Qin Ge, Zheng Qiuyi really didn't think Qin Ge would hesitate to make a move out of consideration for her.

No matter what your status is, it's useless in front of Qin Ge if you're in the wrong!

No, being right doesn't necessarily mean you'll be useful.

Zheng Qiuyi had breakfast at home and then returned to Yunqiju.

Watching his sister's figure disappear, Zheng Shaoqing put down his chopsticks and asked, "Dad, what do you want to see Qin Ge about?"

"Is it just to talk to him about Qiu Yi? That doesn't make any sense, does it?"

"Look at Qiu Yi's expression, what's the use of objecting? Can you lock her up?"

"I've dealt with Qin Ge before. He's completely unpredictable and seems to act entirely on a whim. He's not easy to deal with."

He does indeed have a psychological trauma related to Qin Ge; Qin Ge gives him the feeling of contempt.

That indifferent attitude towards whether he lived or died was very hurtful to his self-esteem.

It's like a person looking down at an ant. No matter how much you jump around, they might tease you if they're in a good mood, but they might just crush you if they're in a bad mood!

"I did it for this family!"

Zheng Hongye put down his chopsticks and slammed them heavily on the table. "You knew about Qin Ge and your sister a long time ago, why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"I have seen them, but I didn't know they had that kind of relationship!" Zheng Shaoqing was very frustrated. Was he adopted?

The old man was all smiles just a moment ago, but his expression changed instantly as soon as his sister left.

Zheng Hongye continued, "If Qin Ge agrees to meet, you have to come with me!"

"He's no simple man, and with Qiu Yi acting as a go-between, we can't miss this golden opportunity!"

"Dad, are you trying to curry favor with Qin Ge?!" Zheng Shaoqing's feelings were even more complicated. Didn't he disagree?

Something flashed through his mind, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up; it didn't all seem like a bad thing.

If Qin Ge and Qiu Yi get together, wouldn't Qin Ge become his brother-in-law?

But the joy on his face quickly faded; his brother-in-law was useless, and he still got beaten up.

Perhaps in order to please Qin Ge, Dad will have to sacrifice him first.

My life is miserable!

......

"We got the money, three hundred million!"

Zheng Qiuyi, with a smug look on her face, boasted, "I've also arranged for the factory to be ready. Once the contract is signed, the handover can begin, and the production line will be up and running very soon!"

"What exactly do you want me to produce? My dad said making vaccines is very difficult!"

It took Qin Ge a while to get back to Zheng Qiuyi's train of thought. "You came home so early this morning just for this?"

"The vaccine can't be made anymore; the Zhao family acted too fast!"

Zheng Qiuyi seemed a little downcast. "So you really are planning to make a vaccine for the current flu?"

"Fine, if you don't want to do it, then don't. I'll keep those three hundred million for myself!"

Qin Ge beckoned to him, "How about you do something else?"

"Think it over carefully. I can find a way as long as it's not cosmetics."

"Caiwei has her own plans for Qingcheng Beauty, so don't disrupt her schedule."

"Anything is fine?" Zheng Qiuyi's dimmed eyes lit up again, and she leaned into Qin Ge's arms. "Just how many resources do you have?"

She began to think about it seriously.

After a moment, Zheng Qiuyi had an idea. "What was that medicine you gave me last time? The one for stomach aches?"

"That's the stomach!" Qin Ge understood Zheng Qiuyi's meaning. "You want to sell stomach medicine?"

"Can't I?" Zheng Qiuyi asked expectantly. "I used to have stomach problems... uh, I mean stomach pain. I tried all sorts of medicine but nothing cured it."

"I went to the hospital and sought out folk healers, but all sorts of treatments were ineffective and actually made my condition worse."

"After taking your medicine, I haven't felt any pain lately!"

Qin Ge smiled slightly, "It's not impossible. I can adjust the formula and make it into pills directly. Even if you're bad at business, you shouldn't be unable to sell them all before they expire, right?"

"The R&D cost is almost zero. If you continue to lose money on this, you might as well buy a pig and raise it instead."

"One is enough; I'm afraid you won't know how to raise more."

Zheng Qiuyi rolled her eyes. "Who do you think you are!"

"I've said it so many times, my previous company was just unlucky and had some backstabbing people; otherwise, it wouldn't have lost money!"

"This is the inevitable path for geniuses!"

"You're getting more and more shameless!" Qin Ge patted her on the shoulder, then stood up. "Let's settle on that then. I'll write down the recipe for you."

"Then you find a professional and trustworthy consultant to adjust the production line as needed."

"Great!" Zheng Qiuyi was very excited, rubbing her hands together, ready to show her skills.

"Oh right, I almost forgot!"

She was a little embarrassed. "My dad wants to meet you and invites you to dinner. Do you have time?"

"Your dad?" Qin Ge asked in surprise. "Why does he want to see me? What did you say to him?"

"That's not very kind of you. We're all adults; we can take responsibility for our own actions. Why would we go back and complain to our parents?"
