"Zhizhi! Zhizhi!"

On the other end, Shi Yue noticed that Shen Zhi was not by her side and called out anxiously.

The little girl immediately stood up, waved her little hand, and shouted at the top of her lungs:

"Mom! I'm here!"

"Zhizhi, what are you doing here?" Shi Yue hugged Zhizhi in fear.

The medicinal herb field has already been damaged; we can't afford to have any more problems with Zhizhi.

Shen Zhi pointed to the water source, wrinkling her little nose:

"Mom, I just smelled a stench and tried to find out what it was. Then I realized it was this liquid, and it smells awful!"

Shen Zhi made up an excuse on the spot, as long as they realized there was something wrong with the water.

"How could that be... Mom didn't smell anything bad."

Shi Yue obediently leaned closer and sniffed a few times, but couldn't smell any strange odor.

Fearing they wouldn't believe her, Shen Zhi added:

"It just stinks! Not only does Zhizhi hate the smell, but these seedlings definitely hate it too. They all fainted from the stench when Zhizhi watered it!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi sensed something was wrong and stepped forward with a stern expression to investigate.

He dipped his finger in water, brought it to his nose to smell, and then licked it with the tip of his tongue.

Jiang Yi's eyes lit up, and he said with certainty, "There are pesticide residues."

"Mr. Shi, are there any other farmers near this medicinal herb field? It seems someone upstream used pesticides improperly, or washed pesticide equipment, and the wastewater seeped down the irrigation canal."

Shi Yue's expression changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice:

"This medicinal herb field was jointly purchased by the Shen and Lu families many years ago. Back then, Lu Zhenhua did not have the assets he has now, and only purchased a few acres of medicinal herb field upstream, which is still preserved today."

"It's the Lu family again," Jiang Yi murmured meaningfully.

Before today, he thought the Lu family was a very good employer, but now... haha.

Shi Yue had no time to investigate whether the Lu family acted intentionally or unintentionally; the most important thing right now was to save the batch of seedlings.

"Dr. Jiang, is it too late to deal with this now?"

Jiang Yi nodded firmly, reassuring Shi Yue:

"Water pollution is not difficult to deal with; just cut off the source of pollution and change the water for cleaning."

"But these seedlings have already absorbed some of it. I'll come and collect soil and water samples in a bit to determine which pesticide it is, and then we can treat it accordingly."

"If it's a common pesticide, our research institute recently developed a new type of agent that is very effective in solving this type of problem."

Shi Yue was overjoyed and excitedly grasped Jiang Yi's hand, saying gratefully:

"Thanks to Dr. Jiang's help! Shen's Pharmaceutical will always remember this kindness!"

Jiang Yi waved his hand and declined, saying:

"Mr. Shi, you're too kind. If anyone should thank someone, it's Mr. Shi and me who should thank Zhizhi."

"If Zhizhi hadn't just discovered the problem with the water source, it would have taken us at least a week to investigate and test it according to our standard procedures."

"Not to mention that Zhizhi saved the Jiang family's life, what I did is nothing."

"Mr. Shi, your Zhizhi is so lucky!"

Shen Zhi chuckled, mimicking Shen Xingye's haughty pose, crossing her arms and nodding, saying:

"That's right, that's right, Zhizhi is a little lucky star!"

Shi Yue looked at Shen Zhi with a face full of doting affection, her eyes softening terribly.

Jiang Yi was taking samples on site, Shi Yue and Shen Mobai were on the phone exchanging information about the medicinal field, and Shen Zhi was able to act alone again.

She remembered that in her previous life, the Shen family sold this medicinal herb farm to make up for their financial losses.

The Lu family took over.

It was precisely because Shen Zhi noticed that there were rare medicinal herbs in this base!

Later research, breeding, and cultivation led to the development of new drugs with higher efficacy than those on the market, directly making the Lu family a pharmaceutical tycoon in Jiangcheng and standing at the pinnacle of success.

after that.

With Lu's Pharmaceuticals taking the lead and Lu Yufeng, known as a "miracle doctor," the Lu family quickly established a special medicine research laboratory.

Shen Zhi never expected that her respected second brother, Lu Yufeng, would use her as a test subject for drugs...

Shen Zhi suppressed the hatred in her eyes, sucked on a lollipop, and panted as she climbed up a large rock to look down.

The little girl squinted at it for a while, hehe!

Target found! ៷>ᴗ This time, the pharmaceutical tycoon will belong to the Shen family!

Shen Zhi approached and discovered that the herb was right behind Jiang Yi, but he was so focused on taking samples that he didn't notice it.

"Zhizhi's here? Then you stay here obediently next to your uncle. It's getting dark, and your mother will worry if you get lost."

"Yes! Zhizhi isn't going anywhere, Zhizhi is staying with Uncle."

Shen Zhi smiled, revealing deep dimples at the corners of her mouth, making her look incredibly sweet.

Tell me, what father could resist such an adorable little creature?

If his hands hadn't been covered in mud, Jiang Yi would have loved to touch the little girl's face.

So cute!

Shen Zhi hugged her knees and squatted obediently next to Jiang Yi, without making a fuss.

"Uncle, why is this medicinal seedling different from the others? Its leaves are purple."

Shen Zhi seized the opportunity and pointed to the medicinal seedling that only she could see the golden light.

Jiang Yi glanced up casually, and that one glance made his eyes widen instantly.

He quickly put down the test tubes he had collected, wiped his hands with his clothes, carefully touched the blades, and repeatedly checked them with his flashlight.

Even someone as experienced as him as he was could not remain calm when he saw this medicinal seedling.

"This is...this is actually...!"

Shen Zhi suppressed a laugh, knowing full well what was going on, and asked, "Uncle Jiang, what is this? Tell Zhizhi quickly!"

Jiang Yi stood up excitedly and immediately called Shi Yue over.

Shi Yue looked a little off after making the call, but she still listened patiently to what Jiang Yi had to say.

The woman's tired eyes flickered with confusion, then were enveloped in immense joy.

"Dr. Jiang, are you... are you sure? This really is an endangered herb!?"

"But I remember this herb only grows in extremely harsh environments. How could it be growing in this nursery?"

Jiang Yi shook his head:

"I don't know how to explain this, but it is indeed a rare herb!"

"And I just checked its condition, it's growing very well. Maybe it's just a coincidence because the environment was so bad before?"

"But this actually proves that this herb can be cultivated artificially! Mr. Shi! Congratulations!"

Overwhelmed with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow, Shi Yue was unsure what expression to wear.

"Mom, are you unhappy? Uncle Jiang said these medicinal seedlings are very effective."

Shen Zhi hugged Shi Yue's leg and tilted her head back to ask.

Shi Yue gave a bitter laugh:

"It's true that this medicine is very powerful, but there's only one plant. Propagating and cultivating it requires very, very skilled researchers. We don't have any more Zhizhi at home."

"Why! How could it be gone?" Shen Zhi asked repeatedly.

Even Jiang Yi looked at him curiously.

Shenjia Pharmaceutical is one of the top companies in Jiangcheng, so it's impossible for them not to have their own research team.

"Mr. Shi, is something wrong?"

Shi Yue forced a smile, sighed softly, and even her voice sounded exceptionally weak:

"We've definitely run into big trouble..."

"The base's original consultant suddenly resigned a couple of days ago. No matter what conditions I offered to retain him, he insisted on leaving."
