"Brother, can you do me a little favor?" Chu Xue suddenly asked in a low voice when she was halfway through eating.
"hehe--"
Chu Feng suddenly smiled, knowing that it was not that simple.
"Tell me about it?"
"Well, can you promise me first?"
"No." Chu Feng refused without even thinking about it.
“Brother——” Chu Xue didn’t expect that her brother would be so ‘determined’.
"If you have something to say, just say it and don't make all these meanderings. As long as I can do it, will I refuse you?" Chu Feng continued to eat, completely ignoring the other person's coquettish behavior.
"Then... okay, I'll say it." Chu Xue paused slightly before continuing,
"It's like this. It's summer vacation in more than ten days. My classmates and I have made an appointment to climb Fulong Ridge together. Can you go with us?"
"That's it?" Chu Feng was immediately surprised, he was hesitating about such a trivial matter.
"I still want to camp in the mountains, but we are all girls, so we need someone we can trust to protect us." Chu Xue nodded and said again.
"How many people?"
"Four of them are all my good friends."
"You are quite courageous."
Chu Feng smiled. He didn't expect that girls nowadays play so wildly. He knew very well that Fulong Ridge was a continuous mountain range at the northern end of Lan County. It covered a very large area, and the terrain was extremely complicated, especially deep in the mountains.
When I was young, I and my friends often went to play, and we were very familiar with it. However, at that time, Fulongling had become bare due to deforestation, and there was no scenery to speak of. But these years have been different.
Lan County has vigorously developed tourism, and some of the original barren mountains have been protected. Now, the originally earthy barren mountains have become green again.
"Why do you think you're going to camp?"
"Originally, we didn't think about it, just go to Fulong Ridge for a day. However, Ai Le said that camping in the wild is very popular in Eagle Country and is very interesting. I suggest everyone give it a try."
"Huh? You mean, Aile?"
When he suddenly heard this name, Chu Feng couldn't help but look slightly startled. It couldn't be such a coincidence.
"She is the granddaughter of Grandpa Ai's family in the community. She has just transferred to our school and is in our class. Besides, we are good friends now?"
Sure enough, just as he guessed, it was the little sister of the Ai family who he had seen in the photos of the Ai family.
"Transfer to another school? How can you go to a small county like Lan County if you don't study in so many good schools in Linhai?"
"I heard from Lele that Grandpa Ai and Grandma are getting older and need someone to keep them company. So, she was sent to study here."
This reason makes sense, but the Ai family is not worried about the quality of teaching here and delaying their daughter's study? Lan County No. 1 Middle School is actually good, but it cannot be compared with Linhai.
"Camping in the wild is not easy. You need to prepare a lot of things. Have you considered it? Also, you need to buy some necessary equipment. Do you have the money?"
"Brother, you don't have to worry about this. Lele is very experienced in this area. Leave it to her to prepare. In addition, I have saved some pocket money to cover the expenses this time."
"So thoughtful?" Chu Feng couldn't help but be surprised. In this way, it didn't have anything to do with him.
"Remember to remind me before setting off."
Chu Xue was very happy when she got the affirmative answer, and she had a smile on her face until she left at the end of lunch.
Chu Feng couldn't help but shake his head. His sister had been well-behaved since she was a child. This was probably her first time participating in such outdoor activities. She was excited but also a little nervous, so she asked him to follow her.
These were just small things that had no impact on him, so he just forgot about them.
It was still early, and at this time, he had already come to the kitchen again and took out the hundreds of packages of medicinal materials he bought in the morning.
Develop a drug to treat diabetes?
This was his original plan. However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was not appropriate. Firstly, the causes of this disease are very complicated and not easy to cure. Furthermore, this method of treating a headache and treating a sore foot was inconsistent with his approach.
The diagnosis idea is not consistent.
Instead of thinking about how to treat a certain disease, it is better to change the way of thinking. He can completely prepare a medicine that can comprehensively maintain the body and internal organs after taking it, thus promoting the improvement of each person's physical quality.
In contrast, this method is most suitable for him and can solve many diseases from the source.
However, what is formulated in this way can no longer be regarded as a pure medicine, but rather like a health supplement. It is simple and safe, and you don't have to worry about some evil tricks, so why not use it.
Chu Feng kept thinking in his mind. He had countless prescriptions, but most of them required extremely precious medicinal materials, and there were even some rare elixirs, which was absolutely impossible. Not to mention elixirs, they were just ordinary medicinal materials.
, in today’s era, farming is the mainstay, and the medicinal properties are no longer what they used to be.
Therefore, in order to be truly successful, it is particularly important that the drugs developed must be cheap.
The afternoon passed slowly.
Chu Feng stayed alone in the kitchen and was busy, almost forgetting the time, until the sky turned dark and his cell phone suddenly rang, waking him up.
"Hey, handsome boy Chu, have you set off? Where are you now?"
The voice on the phone was very familiar. It was Xiaoling who he had met at the fitness retreat in the morning. Only then did Chu Feng remember that there seemed to be a date tonight.
"Just getting ready to go out, I'll be there in a minute."
"Okay then, see you Ming Yuexuan."
…
On the other end of the phone, on a street somewhere. Xiaoling looked at the disconnected phone and couldn't help but marvel.
"This handsome boy from Chu really has a character. He hasn't gone out yet. Could it be that he forgot about it?"
"The appointment is at seven o'clock, it's not too late to go out now." Zheng Qingqing said with a smile.
"Hey, Beauty Zheng, why are you so excused for him? When dating a beautiful woman, it's okay if you don't go in advance, or even later than us. Is this appropriate?"
"It's not a date, it's just a normal dinner party with colleagues."
"Isn't that even worse? Judging from this person's attitude, it's obvious that he doesn't care much about you."
"You damn girl, you can't be more normal if your three sentences are about men and women?" Zheng Qingqing looked at her best friend and couldn't help being speechless.
"What other things can there be between men and women?"
"Okay, stop guessing and leave quickly." Hearing the other person's words getting more and more outrageous, Zheng Qingqing couldn't stand it anymore, so she picked up the other person and moved forward quickly.
Xiaoling didn't react for a while, don't drag her, she complained from time to time,
"Why are you in such a hurry? You have to let him get there first. Yeah, please slow down -"
…
Facts have proved that Chu Feng really didn't care much about this date. In other words, in his mind, it was just an ordinary gathering of colleagues and a social entertainment.
Therefore, he was not so anxious and packed up everything in the kitchen before setting off.
Lan County is not a big place, so it is not too far from my neighborhood to my destination, Mingyue Xuan. If I choose to walk, it only takes more than thirty minutes to arrive.
Mingyuexuan is an antique teahouse. It is not located in a bustling commercial street, but is close to the edge of the city. It has a wide view and not many pedestrians, so the environment is very good and it is a good place to rest.
This model is actually not unusual. It can be found everywhere in big cities. However, it is the only one in Lan County, so it seems a bit unique.
However, because the consumption here is really high, not many people come to visit. This is also the most intuitive feeling when Chu Feng walks into the store.
"Hello sir, welcome to Mingyue Xuan."
"How is consumption here?" Chu Feng nodded, looked at the waiter and asked.
"Our store offers a variety of teas and special foods. You can choose a location in the lobby below, or you can choose a private room upstairs..."
After listening to the waiter's introduction, Chu Feng had a brief understanding of the situation here. At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, are you here?"
The person who spoke was Zheng Qingqing, her tone was very calm.
"We're in the lobby, where are you?"
"Already arrived! Just in time, we are in room A, number 1, you can just come up."
Turning off the phone, Chu Feng looked at the waiter and asked for the location of No. 1.
"No. 1, it's on the third floor. I'll take you there." The waiter seemed to be very sensitive to the room number. After hearing it, he couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then quickly reacted.
The interior decoration of Mingyue Xuan all imitates the ancient style. Unfortunately, perhaps the decorator is not good enough, or the designer has insufficient historical background, which makes the final result somewhat unsatisfactory.
Of course, there is no problem if you don't meet overly picky guests, but if it were Chu Feng, it wouldn't be very attractive. Along the way upstairs, he only took one look and stopped paying attention.
"Handsome Chu, you are finally here. We have waited so long that all the flowers have withered."
Arriving at No. 1, I heard Xiaoling complaining as soon as I walked in. Apparently, she was quite resentful of being "late".
"Sorry, I had some personal matters this afternoon and I got busy and forgot the time." Chu Feng didn't hide anything and apologized directly. After saying that, he found a place to sit down.
I originally thought that the other party would shirk or defend, but I didn't expect to be so frank and directly admit her mistake. This made Xiaoling unable to accept it.
"It's a pity that there is no wine here, otherwise I will punish you with three drinks." He muttered in a low voice to vent his small dissatisfaction.
"Okay, don't talk about these trivial things. I ordered a pot of Biluochun, let's drink it and see how it tastes?" Zheng Qingqing smoothed things over.
Making tea is a science with many details, which ordinary customers know little about. Therefore, Mingyue Xuan will send a dedicated tea worker to take charge.
However, there are also special circumstances. At this time, the person in charge of making tea is Zheng Qingqing. He obviously has a deep study of this method, and his every move shows quite a lot of skill.
“The soup is bright in color and has a refreshing fragrance. It’s good.”
Chu Feng took the white porcelain tea bowl and didn't drink it. He just smiled and praised it.
"Is it that good?" Xiaoling was different. She picked up the tea bowl and took a sip as if drinking water. She pursed her lips, but she didn't quite believe it.
"Isn't it any different from what you make at home?"
"Haha, you."
Zheng Qingqing covered her mouth and chuckled, but she didn't know how to explain it. Although they are best friends, they grew up in different environments since they were young, so they are very different in some aspects. However, this does not affect their relationship.
"Do you also study tea ceremony?"
"Know something." Chu Feng smiled, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and the fragrance filled the air instantly.
"This tea is pretty good. It's expensive, don't you think?"
"The boss here and my grandfather are old acquaintances, so I can get some items that are not for sale." Zheng Qingqing said directly without hiding anything.
"Are you talking about the enthusiastic middle-aged uncle from before? He is the boss here?" Xiaoling suddenly interjected.
"Why, it doesn't look like it?"
"Not only does it look different, I thought he was a diamond prince who fell in love with your beauty and planned to pursue you?"
"What a mess." Zheng Qingqing was speechless and rolled her eyes at the other party.
"Drink more tea today to relieve the anger, so as not to talk crazy words all the time."
Chu Feng sat there quietly without disturbing the two of them. However, this Xiaoling was indeed a lively treasure, with a cheerful and lively personality, which was not annoying. In contrast, Zheng Qingqing was much more dignified and quiet, and she didn't know
How did the two people's incompatible personalities come together?
"I heard that you used to work in Linhai, will you go back in the future?" Zheng Qingqing poured herself a cup of tea, but asked instead of picking it up.
"I have quit my job. If nothing else happens, I will stay in Lan County from now on."
"That's it." Zheng Qingqing's bright eyes blinked slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
"What should I do in the future? Find a job locally?"
She did not continue to ask the reason. It involved privacy, so it would be inappropriate to ask. Instead, she was very curious about her future plans. Naturally, the health retreat meeting was not included. It was just a place where a group of old people, including grandpa, took care of themselves.
, it is not suitable for young people to stay for a long time, even for herself, it can only be regarded as part-time help, purely semi-public welfare.
"Perhaps I will do some health care medicine business." Chu Feng thought for a while and replied truthfully.
"Health products? It's not easy to work in this direction. Are you an agent?" Zheng Qingqing frowned, obviously not optimistic. She stood at a high position and had a different vision. She knew how deep the water was here.
"The dividend period for health care products is long gone. The market is becoming more rational. It is too late to enter the industry now."
"Things have to be done step by step. If you don't give it a try, how can you be sure it's not suitable? There may be accidents."
Chu Feng shook his head slightly, but thought secretly in his heart. Of course he knew everything the other party said, but that was a normal situation. The health care medicines he presented were naturally different, and the market potential was definitely not small.
However, doing business is not that simple. Once huge interests are involved, various obstacles will follow. Without some background and means, if you just throw your arms away and act recklessly, you will definitely end up with a bloody head.
Of course, it's not the best time to talk about this now. Everything has to wait until the preparation of his medicine is completed and the effect is confirmed.
"Actually, you don't need to take such risks. Although the Jianxiu Club looks ordinary, the opportunities contained in it are not small. If you have a good relationship with these old people, it will be easy to find a more comfortable job."
"It's time for a health break"
Chu Feng's heart moved slightly. This is indeed a force that cannot be ignored. If it is not used, wouldn't it be a waste?
