“Does it really have that kind of effect?”
Yang Ningyuan could not believe it. This was simply satisfying the desire of most men.
“How can a small pill have such magical qualities?”
Li Qihua was also shocked.
“Yes!”
Fang Qiu nodded with certainty.
“The medicine is good, but…”
Yang Ningyuan suddenly frowned and said, “Some people are not allowed to take it. With this limitation, it will not be extremely popular in the market.”
“All drugs have contraindications. There is no medicine in the world that can be taken randomly without any contraindications.”
Fang Qiu shook his head.
Yang Ningyuan really did not know much about the qualities of Chinese medicines.
However, Fang Qiu seemed to have anticipated Yang Ningyuan’s concern. He immediately said, “Although there is a contraindication, you can use the first prescription first. The first prescription can regulate the five internal organs and stomach. As long as you use the first prescription to regulate your body, then you can use the second prescription.”
Both Li Qihua and Yang Ningyuan’s eyes lit up as several methods of bundling sales occured to them in an instant.
Thinking of this, the two of them exchanged glances and smiled as if they reached a mutual understanding.
But right at this moment,
Fang Qiu suddenly said, “But…”
“What?”
Yang Ningyuan paused.
Li Qihua also looked at Fang Qiu in puzzlement.
Both of them thought, “Are there any other side effects or conditions to this medicine?”
“However, in order to achieve these effects, the conditions required are usually very strict.”
Fang Qiu pursed his lips and said, “There is a record in the ancient medical book ‘Bao Pu Zi’. Any doctor who desires to make fine medicine can’t be seen by livestock, juvenile and women when they are making it. Anyone who violates this will fail to achieve the effect.”
“There is also a record in the other ancient medical book ‘Thousand Gold Pieces Formulary’: Don’t let women, children, pregnant women, people who are in mourning, people with intractable diseases, people with disabilities and livestock see you when you are decocting the medicine. Be careful when you are making it. Small decoction, such as life-prolonging decoction and ephedra, need not be limited.”
When they heard what Fang Qiu said, Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua could not help raising their eyebrows.
They were businessmen. Although they had learned classical Chinese before, they had not read it for a long time. Therefore, they did not know what Fang Qiu meant by those words. They only understood the meaning of contraindication.
“It means that the processing of this medicine should be kept away from women, children, disabled people, pregnant women, people who are in mourning, sick people and livestock.”
Seeing that the two of them were still confused, Fang Qiu immediately explained and then added, “So you have to choose healthy men to help build the factory and process the medicine.”
After listening to Fang Qiu’s explanation, both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time and then could not help laughing.
“Are we a little tense?”
Li Qihua asked.
“Not just a little. I’m very nervous.”
Yang Ningyuan laughed and said, “I feel like I’ve returned to the stage when I first started my business. I’m dealing with an industry that I don’t know anything at all. I just started from the bottom and tried so hard to make progress, step by step.”
“That’s right. It’s like crossing a mountain when dealing with a completely different field. To cross this hurdle, courage and perseverance aren’t the only things required.”
Li Qihua also smiled.
While they were talking, Yang Ningyuan turned to look at Fang Qiu and said, “It won’t be a problem to get a factory with healthy males in it. But people might say that there is sexual discrimination in the recruitment process. And we also need to find a way to handle the female employees who are already working in the factory.”
“There’s nothing I can do about it.”
Fang Qiu spread out his hands helplessly and said, “This is the record for the ancient prescription. To achieve the full effects of the medicine, let’s just do it this way.”
“Yeah. We should give priority to the quality.”
Yang Ningyuan nodded in agreement.
“By the way.”
As if he had thought of something, Fang Qiu suddenly laughed and said, “Do you need Chinese Medicine doctors to help conduct the physical examination? To process medicine in such a huge factory, you’ll need Chinese Medicine doctors for guidance. I can introduce a group of people to you without any charge.”
The two of them immediately thought of the ten advertisement companies and the three video websites companies, which announced the establishment of their health management departments before.
Then they looked at each other and could not help laughing out loud at the same time.
“Kid, you are always thinking about promoting Chinese Medicine.”
Yang Ningyuan said, “Of course.”
Fang Qiu nodded naturally and replied, “I’m a Chinese Medicine doctor. Of course, I have to do my best to contribute to Chinese Medicine.”
The two of them expressed their admiration.
Then, the three of them discussed the details.
After the discussion, Fang Qiu also personally processed the drugs for the two formulas so that they could take them back to test and try it out. Of course, after Fang Qiu finished making the pills, he signed a contract with them.
The contents of the contract included the conditions that Fang Qiu had mentioned when they arrived earlier.
If the acquisition was completed and Fang Qiu failed to provide sufficient medicine or achieve the effect that Fang Qiu had mentioned before, then he would have to stand in and be the specialist consultant for the two pharmaceutical companies. But once the production of Desert Cistanche was achieved and the effect of the medicine was just like what Fang Qiu had promised, the contract would naturally be terminated.
After signing the contract, the three of them talked for a while. Then Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua left with the contract and medicine. They were going to have a good discussion about how to carry out the plan when they returned.
Fang Qiu continued to stay in Beijiang to help.
Actually, there was nothing important to do next. All he needed to do was to wait and see the show.
Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua got on the plane.
“I can’t see through Fang Qiu now.”
In the business class area of the plane, Yang Ningyuan was lying on the sofa bed. He looked at Li Qihua beside him and said, “Mr. Li, what do you think of Fang Qiu?”
“Impressive.”
Li Qihua directly gave a thumbs-up and exclaimed, “Before I knew him, I did not expect that he could make two listed companies bankrupt. His means are really incredible!”
“Yeah.”
Yang Ningyuan nodded and said, “It’s better to be friends with this kind of person.”
“Aren’t the three of us friends now?”
Li Qihua said with a smile.
“Yes.”
Yang Ningyuan laughed and said, “We are friends!”
“When we get back, we should hurry and prepare the money.”
Li Qihua smiled and said, “When trading starts the day after tomorrow, it will be the best time for us to buy it.”
“Yeah, but before that, we have to contact the shareholders of Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and Taikang Pharmaceutical Company.”
Yang Ningyuan nodded and said, “Now the staff of Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical are panicking. Although many people don’t care or dare to take over these two companies in such a situation, the shareholders of these two companies must have been frightened by the current situation. They might want to sell off their shares as soon as possible to stop the loss.”
“However, what I’m worried about is that other pharmaceutical companies might have a different opinion. Maybe they are trying to take the opportunity to buy it when the price goes down.”
“That’s possible. After all, the core technology of the two companies is worth a little money.”
Li Qihua nodded and said, “However, this matter became so serious, so it won’t be so hard for us to do this.”
At the capital airport.
Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua parted.
Li Qihua went back to his company while Yang Ningyuan got on the plane to Jiangnan.
After they went back to their own companies, it took Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua a whole day to thoroughly check the composition of the two kinds of pills that Fang Qiu gave them. They had to ensure that there were no harmful substances, stimulants, or other drugs in the medicine.
After confirming that there was no problem with the medicine, Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua contacted each other. Then they started to work on their plans. They sent people to secretly buy the stocks of the two major companies.
There was no doubt that the shareholders of Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical had been terrified by this incident. All of them sold their shares to Li Qihua and Yang Ningyuan at a low price.
During this period, they also encountered a little problem.
When the two of them secretly sent people to buy the shares of the two companies, they did encounter some issues. The shareholders of Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical had suffered strong pressure due to the low price.
Because the price was too low, the shareholders of the two companies were unwilling to sell it.
In this case, they happened to meet Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua, who had come to purchase the stocks. Although they also lowered the price, they did not make it too low. When the shareholders heard that the price was fair, they immediately signed the transfer agreement.
As shareholders, they really could not see any hope of turning the tables.
Soon, Yang Ningyuan bought 33% shares of Siqi Pharmaceutical Company, while Li Qihua bought 31% shares of Taikang Pharmaceutical Company.
According to Article 84 of the Administration of the Takeover of Listed Companies Procedures, if the investors could acquire more than 30% of the shares of the listed company, they would be able to take charge of the listed company.
Because it was a listed company, besides the shareholders, there were still a lot of tradable stocks outside that had not been gathered together. Therefore, getting 30% would currently make them the biggest single shareholder.
Yang Ningyuan and Li Qihua received the transfer agreements, one after another.
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday.
In Siqi Pharmaceutical Company,
In the face of the great pressure of public opinion and the continuous drop in their stock price, Commander Zuo and the executives of the company were both helpless.
They had no choice.
But they had to find a way even if there was nothing they could do about it.
The board meeting was held.
There were only a few people in the office.
“Where are all the people?”
Sitting in the chairman’s seat, Commander Zuo looked at the empty meeting room and asked in frustration.
At this moment, most of Commander Zuo’s hair had turned gray. His face, which was always so serious and dignified, was now wreathed in wrinkles. He seemed much older and no longer looked so dignified.
“Coming.”
Just as all the leaders in the office were confused, someone came into the office.
Everyone turned their heads to look.
A strange and familiar man was leading a few people straight into the meeting room.
“Yang Ningyuan?”
Seeing the man coming in, Commander Zuo raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Mr. Yang is here to inform everyone that he has completed the purchase of 30% of the shares. From today on, the Siqi Pharmaceutical Company will be merged into Mr. Yang’s Zhiyuan Group.”
The lawyer brought by Yang Ningyuan directly announced this to everyone in the office.
All the leaders of Siqi Pharmaceutical Company were dumbfounded.
As the chairman, Commander Zuo looked devastated. His whole body went limp and he collapsed on the chair powerlessly, as if he had lost his soul.
