Zhou Pinjuan was excited for a long time before she finally managed to stabilize her emotions. She quickly held onto the wall and walked out to hug Ding Yun, expressing her happiness and inner turmoil, and thanking Ding Yun for her efforts.
After talking for quite a while, she curiously asked:
"By the way, Ayun, where did you get this medicine?
This is simply a miracle drug. How can this be a health supplement? Did you know this medicine might be effective early on but were afraid it wouldn't work, so you specifically changed the packaging and put it in a health supplement box!
What medicine did you give me? I want to recommend it to my friends I met online too!"
At this moment, Zhou Pinjuan no longer felt she was taking a health supplement. She only felt that her daughter might have found some special medicine, but was afraid it wouldn't work and would leave her disappointed, so she disguised the special medicine as a health supplement for her to take. If it was effective, everyone would be happy.
If it wasn't effective, she wouldn't be too disappointed.
Now that it was effective, of course she had to recommend it to her friends and friends she met online who discussed rehabilitation methods.
"Mom, this oral liquid is something I concocted myself.
However, I did not apply for patents and licenses as a drug. Instead, I applied for it as a health supplement. Please remember this clearly: Pei Yuan Oral Liquid has no medicinal effect; it only strengthens the body, consolidates the foundation, and replenishes qi and blood. It is an ordinary health supplement.
Your recovery is entirely due to your body's self-healing.
It's because your immunity has improved, your regenerative ability has strengthened, your qi and blood have become more vigorous, and your body has healed itself!"
Facing her mother's inquiry, Ding Yun was very firm and resolute, emphasizing again that what she gave her mother was a health supplement and had nothing to do with medicine.
Health supplements and medicine cannot be confused.
The standards for these two are also different.
Ding Yun's current strength is weak, and she does not want to get involved in the murky waters of the pharmaceutical industry. Selling health supplements is enough for her.
Although Zhou Pinjuan has not yet become a seasoned doctor through prolonged illness over the years, she still has some understanding of the difference between medicine and health supplements. Coupled with Ding Yun's strong emphasis, she immediately understood and continued to ask:
"Then does this oral liquid have any side effects?"
"No, this oral liquid has passed the inspection standards for health foods. If there were any harmful ingredients exceeding the limit, it would not have passed."
Ding Yun continued to answer with great understanding:
"If there were any problems, would I give it to you? I wouldn't harm my own mother before harming others, would I!"
"Mom, for the next two days, please exercise at home. Once you can move freely, you can go out and play with your other old friends. I might be a bit busy in the next few days. This oral liquid hasn't been mass-produced yet.
Also, I want to mortgage our house to get a loan to set up a production line for mass production."
Considering how much assets her family had, her original mother was well aware. Ding Yun found it difficult to materialize any treasures from the game to sell, so she had to find other ways to obtain funds for mass production.
Compared to her son who wanted the house for business without any preparation, her daughter who had cured herself from being paralyzed from the waist down and now wanted to mortgage her property to produce oral liquid was undoubtedly more trustworthy.
Therefore, Zhou Pinjuan immediately agreed with a smile, saying it was no problem and that the house under her name could also be mortgaged.
With her mother's consent, Ding Yun quickly mortgaged her own house and her mother's house to the bank. She then used this money to rent a dilapidated warehouse in the suburbs as a factory and purchased raw materials, preparing to start mass-producing the oral liquid.
As for the production line, she couldn't afford to buy one.
She had directly materialized it from the game.
Their house was not in a first-tier city, and a house was valued at less than two million. Mortgaging it would only yield sixty to seventy percent. The two houses combined only yielded over two million yuan. After renting the warehouse and buying raw materials, there was barely anything left. How could there be money to buy a production line, and she couldn't even afford employee salaries.
Ding Yun had already thought of this. While experimenting with the formula and improving the ratio, she had also used her spare time to create a simple game using some open-source frameworks online.
It was named the Universal Technology Laboratory.
Its main function was to allow the self-creation of game items. Ding Yun used this game she created to compile a complete set of highly functional, fully automated oral liquid production lines within the game.
This way, she saved the cost of buying a production line!
Furthermore, since the production line was fully automated, it could save a lot on employee salaries. This way, the money obtained from mortgaging the two houses would be just enough.
Overall, everything was proceeding according to Ding Yun's plan.
In less than half a month, her Pei Yuan Oral Liquid factory was successfully built. After hiring a few employees to handle packaging, mass production officially began.
As for sales channels, there were none, absolutely none.
Ding Yun had no budget for this. So, she could only open an online store and rely on her mother's personal promotion to bring her the first batch of customers.
There was no other way. Without sufficient capital.
The early stages of entrepreneurship were bound to be difficult.
While Ding Yun was busy building the factory and mass-producing the oral liquid, Zhou Pinjuan, after spending the first few days re-learning to walk and staying at home, went out for a stroll every day thereafter.
She would go to places where she knew people or where people knew she had been paralyzed from the waist down. When asked, she would say she hadn't taken any medicine, just some health supplements.
Of course, when promoting, she would specifically emphasize that health supplements were not medicine and could not cure diseases, but could only improve resistance and immunity, and help with post-operative recovery.
It might have a certain promoting effect on injury recovery.
If strangers who didn't know each other heard her say this, they certainly wouldn't believe her and might even think she was a scammer promoting health supplements. However, Zhou Pinjuan specifically talked to people she knew. If they didn't know each other, people wouldn't ask her how she recovered after seeing her.
Given that everyone knew she had indeed been paralyzed from the waist down for over ten years and had now recovered, they naturally wanted to try the health supplements she mentioned.
The most crucial point was that the price Ding Yun set was not expensive.
A box of eighteen bottles of oral liquid cost only ninety-nine yuan, which was a six-day supply. The cost per day was only sixteen yuan and fifty cents.
Almost no one could afford not to. Even a mediocre boxed meal outside cost fifteen to sixteen yuan now.
Therefore, many acquaintances, regardless of whether they were sick or not, or felt unwell, enthusiastically placed orders upon learning of this situation.
Moreover, most people bought five boxes at a time, which was a month's supply, planning to try the effects first.
