"Young Master, I've bought all the nearby farms!"
Li Tao grinned, "I've calculated it. A total of three hundred and twenty-nine farms. This entire area is now ours! You are now the person with the most land in this area. Even Paul, the small lord who governs this place, only has over a hundred farms. Your farms are two to three times his."
"These farms need someone to manage them. How about this? Go and hire some people with high salaries to help manage these farms!"
"From now on, all matters concerning these farms will be handled by you!"
Jiang Yi said.
"Okay, I'll go do it now!"
Li Tao nodded.
"Also, hire some workers to dig up some of the Jerusalem artichokes from the ground and put them into Tian Sheng Group's medicinal warehouse. Once I've developed new medicines, we can start production directly!"
Jiang Yi said.
"Mmm!"
Li Tao responded, then couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, when will your new medicine be developed?"
"I don't know!"
Jiang Yi shrugged.
Upon hearing this, Li Tao didn't press further. He trusted Jiang Yi's ability to develop new medicines.
"You go and get busy,"
Jiang Yi said.
"Yes!"
Li Tao responded and then withdrew.
After taking a sip of tea, Jiang Yi continued his research. The development of new medicines could not be delayed.
The Jerusalem artichokes in the manor also had seasons. Once the season passed, they would rot in the ground.
Although it wouldn't cause much loss to Tian Sheng Group, it would cause them to miss a great opportunity to make a lot of money.
In short, the most pressing matter now was to speed up the research and development of new medicines.
In the evening, Jiang Yi walked out of the research laboratory holding a bottle.
As soon as he reached the courtyard, he encountered Dong Rui, Xu Yun, and Jiang Xiaomei.
"Boss!"
The three greeted Jiang Yi in unison.
"Mmm!"
Jiang Yi responded and then asked, "How has the company been doing these past few days?"
"The company is doing great! Our products are very popular, and most of them are in short supply. Our company has already captured a large market in Eagle Country. Our sales have been consistently high during this period, and we've made a lot of money!"
Dong Rui said with a smile.
"Well done!"
Jiang Yi nodded with satisfaction.
"However, Jiang Wanli's Jiang Shi Pharmaceutical Group in Ximeng State has been working against us. Although their methods are trivial and haven't caused any losses to our company, it's really annoying,"
Xu Yun said.
"I will destroy the Jiang Shi Pharmaceutical Group sooner or later!"
Jiang Yi sneered.
Afterward, Jiang Yi called them all into the main hall.
"I have developed the new medicine!"
Jiang Yi placed the bottle on the table and said, "This new medicine is not exactly a medicine, but a very effective beauty product. I will give you the formula later, and you can produce some for the market to see if it's popular!"
"Okay!"
Dong Rui and the others nodded.
Jiang Yi had already decided to conduct an experiment first to see if it could be successful.
If it wasn't successful, he would continue to research. With his ability, he would eventually develop a popular product.
"Can I open it and take a look?"
Dong Rui asked.
"You can!"
Jiang Yi nodded.
Seeing Jiang Yi's agreement, Dong Rui immediately opened the bottle.
Instantly, the fragrance from inside wafted out and began to diffuse throughout the hall!
This stunned everyone!
"This is simply amazing!"
Xu Yun couldn't help but exclaim, "This fragrance is simply enchanting. Even the most top-tier perfumes cannot emit such a captivating aroma, and it has already filled the entire hall just by opening the cap!"
"This product will definitely be very popular!"
Jiang Xiaomei also stated with certainty.
Jiang Yi hadn't had high expectations initially, but after hearing their words, he gained confidence.
"Was this developed from Jerusalem artichokes?"
Dong Rui asked.
"Mmm!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly, "Jerusalem artichokes are rich in a very rare substance. When this substance volatilizes, it emits a magical fragrance, which is the fragrance you just smelled."
"Moreover, this substance has a very good refreshing effect, which can relieve fatigue, and it can also treat many diseases!"
"That's wonderful!"
"This product will definitely be very popular. Not only can it be used to treat diseases, but it can also be used as a perfume! Tomorrow, we will start discussing the production plan for this product and then proceed directly with production and sales!"
Dong Rui said.
Xu Yun and Jiang Xiaomei also stated that this product could be produced in large quantities, and a patent must be applied for before that.
Jiang Yi smiled. It seemed he had already succeeded halfway!
Jiang Yi planned to continue developing new medicines using Jerusalem artichokes.
To many people, Jerusalem artichokes were a rampant invasive species, but in Jiang Yi's hands, they would surely become a treasure trove for making money.
It wasn't until very late that everyone went to rest one after another.
Jiang Yi also returned to his room.
Tired from the day, Jiang Yi lay on the bed and fell asleep directly.
The next morning, as soon as Jiang Yi got up and went to the hall, Dongfang Mei handed him an invitation.
"What is this?"
Jiang Yi asked.
"It's an invitation from the Pharmaceutical Association. I just looked at it. It says the association has invited Tian Sheng Group to attend the Pharmaceutical Expo tomorrow!"
"Since you've just developed a new medicine, take it and try it out tomorrow!"
Dongfang Mei said.
"Pharmaceutical Expo?"
Jiang Yi blinked.
"That's right, the Pharmaceutical Expo!"
Dongfang Mei said, "Many well-known pharmaceutical companies will bring their best products to participate. The association will score the drugs based on their various performances and select the most popular ones, awarding trophies."
"If your new medicine can achieve a ranking at tomorrow's expo, it will be equivalent to free advertising!"
"Okay, then I'll go tomorrow!"
Jiang Yi grinned. He wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
"You should find an opportunity to properly thank Mr. Stephen."
"Many people still strongly resist Traditional Chinese Medicine. The association wouldn't be so kind as to give you an invitation. If I'm not mistaken, it must have been Stephen who helped you secure this spot!"
Dongfang Mei said.
"I should indeed go and thank him properly. I have nothing to do today. After lunch, I'll go find Stephen!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
After lunch, Jiang Yi started his car and headed to Stephen's castle.
Stephen's castle was located in the city center, a very luxurious area, surrounded by many magnificent castles.
Basically, many wealthy people owned a castle in this location.
