At 10 o'clock in the morning, he heard Jiang Qiuyun calling: "A Cheng, the capsules you ordered have arrived."
He walked out of the basement and saw several large cardboard boxes in the living room!
Open the carton and find a sealed plastic bag with blank capsules inside.
In the following days, he locked himself in the basement and made bear bile powder by himself. In order to reduce the impact of the spiritual energy in bear bile, he added a lot of starch to it.
It doesn't matter if you can't cure the disease, don't kill people all at once.
He used a semi-automatic powder filling machine to fill the capsules, ultimately producing 390,000 small capsules.
On the morning of May 10, Chen Fengmei came to Qingquan Villa.
She brought over the sales ledger from the last few months.
Lu Cheng looked through it briefly and found that "Xianshentang" had finally started to make money! Among them, elixirs and spiritual ginseng were sold in small quantities. The most sold were bear bile powder capsules. A total of 2,300 capsules were sold, each costing 100,000 yuan, which is 230 million. Mink coats and snow leopard skin clothes were also sold. Several pieces were produced, and even one dragon skin coat was sold.
Chen Fengmei said: "The sales of bear bile powder are gradually accelerating. At the beginning, online orders were only two pills per piece, and in recent days they have been ten or eight pills."
Lu Cheng asked: "Have you done any advertising?"
Chen Fengmei shook her head: "According to your request, we didn't do any advertising at all. We relied entirely on word of mouth."
"Are there any relevant posts on the Internet?"
"Not yet. Because only 2,300 pills have been sold. Those buyers were diagnosed through our network and all were stage three liver cancer patients. Each patient had a complete medical record and signed an informed consent form. Generally, their family members also Don’t want to reveal your information.”
"Have you checked the information on how many liver cancer patients there are in China?"
"In 2030, more than 430,000 people will be newly diagnosed with liver cancer, and more than 410,000 people will die from liver cancer."
"So much? I made another batch of capsules, but it's still a drop in the bucket."
"Boss, the families of patients who buy medicines complain that our medicines are too expensive."
"We are 'Xianshentang', the premier 'spiritual store', not a charity."
"Some patients are so pitiful that they ask us if they can use medical insurance?"
"What do you think?"
"That's impossible. Not to mention homemade capsules like ours, even rare drugs from abroad will be completely destroyed by 'centralized buying'."
Lu Cheng was silent for a moment and said: "The medicines we have are limited, and we can't reduce the price yet. We will talk about it in the future." In fact, for him, it doesn't matter if he makes less money, but these bear bile powder was brought from another world. , does not belong to this world, and is worthy of the word "miracle medicine". If such a rare elixir is sold at a low price, it must be criticized by patients, condemned by relevant departments, and risk breaking the law. This kind of thing cannot be done!
Human beings are born to suffer, and their lifespan is very short. Who can transcend death? Since everyone is going to die, what difference does it make if you die one day earlier or one day later?
This sounds cruel, but it is true if you think about it carefully.
Some people are alive, but they are dead; some people are dead, but they are still alive.
As long as a person is alive, he can live happily every day, even if he only lives for twenty or thirty years, there is nothing to regret.
Many times, you will reap melons if you sow melons, and you will reap beans if you sow beans. Some cancers are related to dietary environment. Some people overeat or drink excessively will be taken away by God in advance.
Because of this, traditional Chinese medicine says “don’t treat the disease, treat the disease before it’s over.” Health care is much more important than treating the disease. Only by adjusting your heart well and being an upright, cheerful and self-disciplined person can you receive the gift from God.
Lu Cheng wanted to sell bear bile powder to those with a good attitude, but who was he qualified to judge other people's moral character?
Chen Fengmei didn't quite understand Lu Cheng's thoughts and felt that the wealthy boss was a bit cold. She put the newly made capsule into the storage jade pendant and left Qingquan Villa.
In the afternoon, Lu Cheng had nothing to do and came to Quancheng No. 13 Middle School.
He put an invisibility charm on himself and walked around the school for more than an hour. He looked at Yang Zheng and saw that his eyes were clear and his behavior was upright. The teacher also respected him very much, so he nodded secretly: "Looks okay, he is not an arrogant and domineering young man."
Of course, understanding a person cannot be based on one interview alone.
Lu Cheng felt that there was no need to hire a private detective to conduct a comprehensive investigation. After all, Yang Zheng was still a young man and the investigation would not reveal much evil.
The next morning was Saturday.
Jiang Qiuyun held a literary salon at home and invited some friends to come over and chat.
Lu Cheng went out for a walk, walked slowly up Qianfo Mountain, and went down from the east foothills, where he saw Yang Zheng practicing boxing there.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Yang Zheng's Mantis Fist became more and more solid, and his strength increased a lot between advances and retreats.
Lu Cheng looked at it from a distance for a while, then slowly walked over.
Yang Zheng looked around and suddenly saw him, with a look of surprise on his face: "Master, are you here?"
Lu Cheng said: "Don't call me master, I haven't taken you as my disciple yet. You can call me sir."
"Yes, sir."
In fact, according to "The Analects of Confucius for Politics": "He who is sired is the father and elder brother." According to "Quli", sir means teacher.
Lu Cheng said: "I came here today to teach you a secret."
Yang Zheng was overjoyed: "Sir, do you want to teach me the skills?"
"It's just a basic exercise that will help you temper your body. People have innate Qi and acquired Qi. Innate Qi comes from parents and blessings from God, and acquired Qi comes from diet and self-nurturing. There are four seas in the human body. , respectively, are the Sea of Qi, the Sea of Blood, the Sea of Marrow and the Sea of Water and Valley. The technique I teach you today is called the 'Water Valley Technique', which allows you to eat more, draw energy from your diet, and fill your muscles, bones and internal organs. among.”
"Please sir, teach me the Dharma!" Yang Zheng felt so blessed that he knelt down on his knees!
Lu Cheng didn't let him get up, and directly explained the "Water Valley Jue". He talked for about ten minutes before saying, "Get up, go back and try to practice."
Yang Zheng stood up and said, "Thank you sir. I want to ask a question, is that okay?"
"If you have any questions, just ask. I'll add you on WeChat. If you have any questions, just leave me a message. If nothing happens, don't disturb me!"
"Excellent. Sir, I heard the teacher who taught Mantis Boxing say: 'Innate Qi is vitality. As soon as a person is born, vitality is a fixed amount. As a person grows and grows older, it is constantly being consumed. When the vitality is exhausted, Time is the day you leave this world. Vitality is like gas. If your parents give you a lot of gas, and you keep the fire door open all day long, you will be exposed to wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness, etc. Fire can be affected by joy, anger, worry, thoughts, sorrow, fear, and shock internally, and it will be burned internally and externally. No matter how much vitality is given to you, you will not live long. On the contrary, if what is given to you is not too much, but you use it sparingly every day, Then your life will be longer. Sir, do you think that teacher was right?"
Lu Cheng said slowly: "This is both right and wrong. If you are an ordinary person and have not opened the heavenly acupoints, your innate energy is a given. So at your age, you must control yourself, don't stay up late, and don't watch pornographic movies. The video should not be obscene or pornographic. As the saying goes, one drop of semen and ten drops of blood..."
There were no outsiders around anyway, so he said it bluntly.
"If you practice to a certain level and open the heavenly orifice on the top of your head, you can sense the spiritual energy from the outside world, and you can breathe in and out to replenish your own innate energy. So in my opinion, a person's vitality is not a fixed number."
Yang Zheng added: "Sir, some people say that 'when the essence is full, it overflows'. What do you think of this sentence?"
Lu Cheng said: "That is a phenomenon experienced by ordinary people. As long as you practice the 'Water Valley Jue' every day, you will convert the Qi and essence of the Water Valley into energy and use it to transform your own muscles, bones and internal organs. Only in this way can you improve your skills. , quickly become a master of Ming Jin, or even a master of Dark Jin!"
"Thank you sir."
"Practice hard! It's actually not difficult to become a master of Ming Jin. However, it's not that easy to open the heavenly aperture."
Many people have been unable to open the heavenly aperture after practicing for a lifetime, but if a famous teacher is nearby and pats the top of their head, it is very likely that they will be able to open it. The problem is that there are too few famous teachers of that level! Although Lu Cheng can do it, he will not encourage others to succeed. Yang Zheng still needs more efforts. Only when he reaches the threshold of "entering the Tao" can he help.
What is the threshold of "entering the Tao"? There are different performances in different industries. Some people, such as Jiang Qiuyun, can enter Taoism when writing with concentration or lifting the talisman pen to write. For people who practice martial arts, there is Ming Jin first, then Dark Jin, and then Transformation, the so-called "transformation" means entering the Tao.
Lu Cheng came again: "I teach you Kung Fu, but don't tell anyone else. I don't want to cause a fuss!"
Yang Zheng nodded quickly: "Sir, I understand."
Yang Zheng returned home that day and began to practice "Water Valley Jue". His appetite began to increase and he ate one more bowl of rice than usual.
Her mother, Zhang Yuzhen, usually makes a little extra, but unexpectedly she ate them all this time. She thought her son was growing, so she was happy about it.
But in the following days, Yang Zheng's appetite increased day by day, more than doubling the previous amount! As a result, she began to worry.
Yang Zheng remembered Lu Cheng's advice and did not say the "Water Valley Jue". He just smiled and said: "Mom, I will eat two more bowls of rice. What do you have to worry about? Don't worry, I'm fine!"
Yang Zheng practiced the "Water Valley Jue", and his teeth and appetite became very good. He wanted to take a bite when he saw the bark of a tree. He felt that his strength was increasing day by day, and his punches were more powerful than before.
Lu Cheng returned home and logged into the "Kunlun Jue" website to watch the "Monument Opener" competition.
Starting from May 1st, every Saturday, the "Kunlun Show" live competition will start at 8 a.m., take a one-hour break at noon, and end at 5 p.m. First there are auditions in various places, then there are the semi-finals and finals. All competitions will be completed within one month. It is said to be a month, but it is actually 4 Saturdays.
Because it was the first time, there were not many people participating in the competition. There were five competition areas in total, with two to three hundred people coming to each area, which was incomparable to the tens of thousands in the singer competition.
Although there were not many participants, it attracted a lot of spectators!
These people can either watch all the auditions online or watch selected TV programs compressed into one hour.
"What kind of game is this? Why is it called 'Monument Opener'?"
"Hehe, it's just cracking a stone slab with bare hands! It's just that kind of bluestone slab, with different thicknesses from one inch to one foot."
"In my opinion, it's difficult to crack a one-inch slate. Who can crack a one-foot-thick slate? Isn't that nonsense?"
"There is a saying here. If you break a one-inch-thick bluestone slab with one palm without hanging it in the air, it is considered the early stage of Mingjin; if you break a 2-inch-thick bluestone slab with one palm, it is considered the middle stage of Mingjin; A thick stone slab is considered to be in the late stage of Ming Jin; 4 inches is considered to be the peak of Ming Jin; one who can break a 5-inch thick bluestone is considered to have entered the dark stage; 6 inches is considered to be in the middle stage of dark strength, 7 inches is considered to be in the late stage of dark strength, and 8 inches is considered to be in the late stage of dark strength. It is considered the peak of dark strength; if it exceeds one foot, it is considered to have entered the realm of transformation!"
"Haha, this game is interesting! I can watch it all day without moving!"
"Have you heard? This competition launched by Kunlun Jue has a very high bonus! Not only will the champion receive a bonus of 1 million yuan provided by the company, but he can also have dinner with Chairman Lu Cheng and receive additional bonuses. 5000000!"
"Lu Cheng is so generous! Why would he do this?"
"He is the chairman of Kunlun Jue, and he is trying his best to hype up his company, attract more attention, and thereby increase the stock price."
"What I want to ask is, why did he want to have dinner with the champion? Is there any ulterior motive?"
"He wants to make friends, can you control that?"
"I'm afraid that he will bribe experts, organize a private guard, and then plot evil."
"You are worrying too much! These days, the state machine is extremely powerful. Which lunatic can make waves?"
Lu Cheng watched the competition for a while and found that many people could crack open slates of one to three inches, but few people could crack open slates of more than four inches. It seemed that there were many Ming Jin masters, but not many An Jin masters. Or maybe there are some dark masters hiding in the preliminaries, hoping to wait until the finals to make a splash.
In the afternoon, he suddenly remembered that there were some tiger bones and vulture bones in the jade ring, so he took out the high-temperature furnace and refined the "tiger and dove pill".
This time, the "Tiger Dove Pill" he refined was still not big, because the small pill was more suitable for him to take, and it was also suitable for Qingmei. After Jiang Qiuyun advanced to the innate level, he could also take a little bit. If the pill is too big, it will have a strong impact and is only suitable for people with high power.
"Why make such big pills? If you feel the medicine is not powerful enough, just take two more pills."
***
That night, in the middle of the night, Lu Cheng rubbed his jade ring, and his soul drifted away to a different world.
Although it has passed the beginning of spring in another world, the weather is still very cold and the snow outside has not melted.
Lu Cheng took out the newly refined small "Tiger Dove Pill" and gave twenty pills to Qingmei: "Take these pills and take one every seven days."
Qingmei was very happy: "This is the precious 'Tiger Dove Pill'? One pill can be sold for 1,000 jade coins. Brother, when did you refine it?"
Lu Cheng said: "I can make elixirs in my dreams. These are the ones I just made."
"I heard that you can only take one pill a month. Why do you say you should take one pill every seven days?"
"Our pill is small, so we don't need to wait that long."
"Brother, I haven't learned any runes for 18 days."
"I'll teach you later. How many runes have you learned?"
"2,500. I'm almost finished learning "Little Wu Wen"."
Lu Cheng looked at her slender and petite figure, and saw that her face was still that of a cardamom girl, and asked: "After the New Year, are you 9 years old?"
Qingmei smiled happily: "Yes, brother, I am 9 years old!"
"Have your skills improved these days?"
"I have taken so many elixirs, of course I have improved! I am already at the third level of congenital level, and half of my second fox tail has grown."
"Have all your little sisters advanced to the innate level?"
"Only green grass is the first level of Xiantian. Qingxing and Qingling have not yet entered Xiantian."
"Then your skill is much higher than theirs!"
"Yes, my grandma gave me elixirs in the early years, and my foundation is better than theirs. Since I followed my brother, I have taken mulberry from the hibiscus tree, as well as Shenglong Pill and Tiger Dove Pill, so I have made faster progress. "
