The minister of the Ministry of Commerce asked, “President, shall I contact the Egypttian side now?”
“Go ahead. Be sure to tell them we’ve patented it,” said the president.
“Got it.” The minister of the Ministry of Commerce nodded, turned around, and was about to leave.
At this moment, Fang Qiu suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Wait a sec. There’s one more thing.”
“What is it?”
The minister of the Ministry of Commerce and the president were both confused.
Fang Qiu said, “Here’s the thing. When I went there to look for herbs this time, I encountered a primitive tribe. This prescription that can cure malaria came from that tribe. And someone from the tribe led me to pick these herbs. So I hope you can take special care of that tribe.”

When the president heard this, he immediately asked, “A primitive tribe? Does such a tribe still exist?”
Fang Qiu nodded with certainty and said, “Yes. I told them in advance how to process medicinal herbs and that someone from the government would be there to buy the medicine. The tribe is located at the junction of the Africon Savannah and the Sahhara, which is very barren. Besides, they now have the idea of taking the initiative to contact and integrate with modern civilization. So I hope that you can give them more care.”
The president nodded and said, “Yes, sure. Since the prescription came from this primitive tribe, it has made a great contribution to the treatment of malaria. It’s reasonable to give them some special care.”
The minister of the Ministry of Commerce also nodded immediately and said, “Okay. I will also focus on mentioning it to the Egypttian government.”
“All right, thank you.” Fang Qiu thanked them.
This was actually his request, so it was natural for him to express his gratitude.
After that, the minister of the Ministry of Commerce immediately turned to leave and hurried to contact the Egypttian side.
“This time, not only did you help us, but you also saved Africo.”
After the minister of the Ministry of Commerce left, the president turned to look at Fang Qiu with a smile and asked, “Your contribution is enough for me to give you all that I can. Just tell me what you want.”
Fang Qiu smiled.
He shook his head with a smile and said, “I’m a doctor, a Chinese Medicine doctor from Huaxia, not a businessman.”
The president was slightly stunned by Fang Qiu’s words and immediately gave him a thumbs-up.
His eyes were full of respect for Fang Qiu.
Later, Fang Qiu left the Presidential Palace and returned to the medical assistance base.
Under the arrangement of the president, the authorities of Comores quickly sent a letter to Huaxia in the name of the country.
“To Huaxia.
“First of all, thanks to Huaxia Chinese Medicine doctor, Mr. Fang Qiu, for his contribution to us, the Union of the Comores, and the whole of Africo. Mr. Fang Qiu’s contribution is of great help in treating malaria.
“Second of all, on the advice of Mr. Fang Qiu, we hope to hire a batch of Huaxia Chinese Medicine pharmaceutical talents and get official support and help from Huaxia. We promise that we will give the hired talents the best salary and care. At the same time, we hope that Huaxia can select the most suitable talents for us and strengthen the friendship between the two countries. Thank you very much!”
It was a short letter.
With the seal of the Union of the Comores on it, it was no longer as ordinary as before.
Soon, the letter was sent to the authorities of Huaxia.
They received the letter and were puzzled.
“The Union of the Comores?
“It has never had any contact with us. Why would its government suddenly send a letter and want to hire a group of Chinese Medicine pharmaceutical talents?
“What happened?”
Confused, the authorities of Huaxia immediately sent the letter to the Ministry of Public Health when they saw the gratitude of the Union of the Comores for Fang Qiu in it. After all, everything about medicine was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Public Health.
After receiving the letter, the leader of the Ministry of Public Health was very happy.
Although the Union of the Comores was relatively small and its economy was not developed, it was still a country.
Most importantly, this was a great thing. At least it could help Huaxia improve its reputation internationally.
Without any hesitation, the leader of the Ministry of Public Health immediately contacted Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu had just returned to his room in the medical assistance base. He planned to take a short break before going to help Jiang Miaoyu and others treat patients for free.
“Beep, beep, beep…”
However, he had just sat down for a moment when his cell phone rang in his trouser pocket.
“Hello?” Fang Qiu answered the phone.
A particularly formal and standard accent came from the other end of the line. “Is it Fang Qiu? I’m the minister of the Ministry of Public Health of Huaxia.”
“Yes, this is Fang Qiu,” Fang Qiu answered and nodded at once.
The man on the other end of the line said, “I called you to confirm something with you. We just received a letter from the Union of the Comores, asking Huaxia to help it find a batch of Chinese Medicine pharmaceutical talents. You were also mentioned in the letter. Did you suggest this to the president of Comores?”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Yes, it was indeed my suggestion. Here’s the thing. I found some herbs in Africo that could cure malaria, but there was no Chinese Medicine doctor who knew how to process medicinal herbs in Africo. To cure malaria, the president of Comores consulted me about this and decided to ask my country for help. He planned to hire some Chinese Medicine pharmaceutical experts to teach his men in Africo how to process medicinal herbs, so as to cure malaria that has plagued Africo for hundreds of years!”
From the other end of the line came the praise of the leader. “Good. You did a great job, but it will take a long time for us, the Ministry of Public Health, to recruit Chinese Medicine pharmaceutical talents for the Union of the Comores because we don’t specialize in this. Therefore, I’ve decided to hand over this matter to your ‘Three Billion Foundation’. Recently, your ‘Three Billion Foundation’ has done a good job. There are a lot of Chinese Medicine talents there and your personnel has a comprehensive understanding of pharmaceutical talents. So, I’ll leave it to you. I believe that you can make a great contribution to the country’s diplomatic affairs. I have faith in you!”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Thank you for your trust. I’ll try my best!”
Actually, he had thought that he should be the one to do it.
However, this matter concerned foreign affairs, and he couldn’t just snatch it away. Hence, he could only act according to the situation and see what the country would do.
Now it seemed that the Ministry of Public Health really trusted the “Three Billion Foundation”, which made him gratified.
For him, there was no need for any reward. To be trusted by the country was already the greatest encouragement.
Moreover, this could not only send Huaxia Chinese Medicine doctors to Africo but also help the country build diplomatic relations. It was something that could kill two birds with one stone. Fang Qiu, of course, was willing to do it.
He hung up the phone and immediately dialed He Xue’s number.
“Hello?” He Xue picked up the phone.
“Comores needs 1,000 Chinese Medicine talents to help it process medicinal herbs. Its government has sent a letter to the authorities of Huaxia. In the end, the Ministry of Public Health handed over this task to us, the ‘Three Billion Foundation’. You should immediately ask the foundation to start recruiting. The work period is one year,” said Fang Qiu bluntly.
After hearing that, He Xue asked curiously, “Do you still need Desert Cistanche?”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “No, I’ve found a cheaper substitute here, and it’s also very effective in treating malaria.”
He Xue’s tone immediately changed when she heard that. “Oh? Can we have a share?” She asked.
“This is Africo.” Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and continued, “It’s so far away. Do you think it’s possible?”
“Well…”
He Xue pondered for a while.
“Africo is indeed a little far away, and it seems unrealistic to have a finger in the pie.”
Thinking of this, He Xue suddenly burst out laughing and said, “Why do I feel like you’re a spider spirit?”
“Huh?” Fang Qiu was confused and then asked, “Spider Spirit? What are you talking about?”
“I think you’re spinning a web right now.”
He Xue smiled and explained, “A spider silk is a relationship. Our group’s business will be better when you have connections all over the world, won’t it?”
“Umm.” Fang Qiu immediately understood what she meant and said with a wry smile, “I didn’t think about that at all.”
“You didn’t think about it, but you did that, didn’t you?”
He Xue chuckled and added, “I don’t believe you won’t be taken care of when you do business there later after helping Comores.”
“It can be seen as something good in that.” Fang Qiu nodded.
“The most important thing is that our foundation has been selected by the Ministry of Public Health to complete this task, which means that it is completely acknowledged by the Ministry of Public Health. As long as this news is made public, no one will dare to touch our foundation again.
“Not only will no one dare to do so, but its future path will be smooth,” He Xue added.
Fang Qiu sighed with emotion and said, “You think too much. I really didn’t think about it that much. I thought I was helping people. But now, after hearing what you said, why do I feel that I have made a fortune?”
Soon, the official website and official Weibo account of the “Three Billion Foundation” issued a notice at the same time.
“Our foundation is entrusted by the Ministry of Public Health to recruit 1,000 talents who are skilled in processing traditional Chinese medicinal herbs from all over the country to work in Africo. The work period is one year, and high payment is available for this position!”
As soon as the notice was issued, it drew wide attention.
Seeing the content of the notice, the netizens were immediately dumbfounded.
“1,000 Chinese Medicine talents in processing medicinal herbs?”
“First, Chinese Medicine doctors went to the country, and now they want pharmacists to go abroad?”
“Not bad. Those who will be recruited will go abroad in the name of the country to win glory.”
“Africo? The Union of the Comores, where Fang Qiu is supposed to treat malaria, is located in Africo. I heard that malaria was very common and rampant there. Now so many pharmaceutical talents are suddenly wanted. Has malaria been cured?”
“I think a treatment method instead of a cure has been found. Otherwise, how could so many pharmacists be wanted?”
“No way?! It’s only been more than a week since Fang Qiu set off. Malaria has been giving Africo a hard time. How could he find a cure for it in seven or eight days?”
