Chapter 68

The turmoil over the forced sale of medicinal herbs ultimately ended with Jia Wenjing and her gang being driven away.

Ye Fei didn’t focus much on these matters. He kept an eye on the renovation progress while finding time to treat Zhang Daqiang.

After several treatments, Zhang Daqiang recovered his fertility, and he became even more grateful to Ye Fei.

Sun Bufan also actively saw patients.

After Ye Fei’s guidance, Sun Bufan’s medical skills improved significantly, and he could handle the neighborhood patients on his own.

He was extremely enthusiastic towards Ye Fei, calling him "Little Master" and frequently serving him tea and water.

Knowing that even Lian Ye and Gongsun Yuan wanted to be his disciples, Sun Bufan naturally understood Ye Fei’s value.

Ye Fei taught him some experience and treated over ten patients as a demonstration, which greatly benefited Sun Bufan.

When he finished with the last patient and was about to have lunch, he saw Liu Fugui running over: "Brother Fei, Baihua Pharmaceutical has a problem..."

Not long after, Qian Shenghuo and Shen Yan also appeared.

Ye Fei welcomed the three into the unrenovated backyard and brewed a pot of fat sea dates to calm them down: "Why do you look so terrible? What happened?"

Liu Fugui fell to his knees with a thud: "Brother Fei, I’ve let you down."

Ye Fei quickly helped him up: "What exactly happened?"

"This isn’t Fugui’s fault; it’s my sister’s mistake in choosing the wrong person."

Shen Yan, as always, was dignified and elegant, but she smiled bitterly: "After Baihua Pharmaceutical fired Xu Xin, she sold all the procurement data to our competitors."

"A few competitors adjusted their pricing strategies, squeezing the profit margin of our main product, Baihua Beauty Cream, to an awkward level."

"Of course, this isn’t fatal."

"The most outrageous thing is that Xu Xin also colluded with a key member of the R&D department, obtaining the high-priced palace secret formula I bought."

Shen Yan looked at Ye Fei: "Now, all three of Baihua Pharmaceutical’s products—beauty, health, and scar removal—have been sold to Wangba Pharmaceutical by Xu Xin."

Qian Shenghuo added: "Wangba Pharmaceutical is our biggest competitor at the same price level, and its head, Chen Liyang, is the son of Chen Guangrong from Bao Hai Bank."

"Chen Liyang has always wanted to吞并我们，但每次都被你姐压得死死的。"

"他曾经还玩阴的算计过百花药业，被我识破警告后才安分一点。"

"可没想到，他这次通过徐欣直接釜底抽薪。"

他眼里跳动着一抹光芒：“你姐梳理了一下过程，判定他早就处心积虑偷秘方。”

Ye Fei noted the name: "Chen Liyang..." Shen Yan looked at Ye Fei: "据说霸王药业正在加班加点生产，还准备用一半的价格销售，想一举击垮我们。"

"虽然百花银行可以运作，也能打官司，但百花药业如果没有新产品突破，下季度一定会元气大伤。"

"不仅产品卖不出去，客户也会全被霸王药业抢走。"

Qian Shenghuo teased: "你姐为此烦恼得饭都吃不下，她说很对不起你，把一个烂摊子交给你了。"

他和沈嫣不差这点钱，但不想输这口气，多年的恩怨，注定了钱胜火不希望看到陈厉阳压过妻子。

Ye Fei narrowed his eyes slightly: "看来我还是太仁慈了。"

"飞哥，我去找徐欣，我挖地三尺也要把她揪出来给大家交代。"

Liu Fugui stood up abruptly: "只要拿下她，我们就有证人，就能终止霸王药业生产。"

Ye Fei shook his head: "她拿了钱，肯定早跑远了，而且这事不用你去干，我让沈云峰帮忙就是。"

"再说，就算霸王药业不能生产，它也可以泄露出去给小作坊，然后从侧面捅我们一刀。"

He picked up a cup of tea and sipped it: "我现在想知道的是，怎样才能解决危机，挽救百花药业？"

虽然这公司是赠送的，但也是自己的产业，Ye Fei可不想没捂热就倒闭了。

"一是霸王药业停止生产，销毁秘方，同时聘请法律团队紧盯市场，严厉打击小作坊山寨。"

Shen Yan rubbed her fingers on the teacup: "但这条路几乎不可能，陈厉阳不会放过机会，我们的时间和精力也不允许。"

"二是下个季度，全部下架原产品，换上更有效更高端的产品，让对手打击扑空，还损失一把。"

"比如现在美容产品的效果是年轻三岁，只要我们换上年轻五岁以上的，就能扭转公司未来的困境。"

"这第二条路看似简单，但也很难。"

"研发根本来不及了，购买古秘方更是异想天开，谁会送我们生金蛋的鸡？"

"我当初能弄到三张秘方，纯粹就是一个意外。"

她很是头疼：“也可以代理国外大牌产品，但那真的是为对方打工，他们的要求都是利润九一分。”

"新产品？"

Ye Fei mused: "美容？"

"养生？"

"祛疤？"

"是啊，随便一个新产品，只要效果胜于以前的产品，百花药业就能撑过去。"

Shen Yan crossed her long legs: "可惜它无法像开药方一样开出来，不然你就可以直接开几张方子。"

"开药方？"

Ye Fei squinted his eyes, and suddenly a light bulb went off: "或许我真能开一个……" He suddenly remembered that his vast mind contained many ancient secret formulas, and perhaps some of them could be for beauty.

Thinking about this, Ye Fei quickly searched his mind, and soon his eyes lit up.

"富贵，给我一支笔。"

Ye Fei waved for Liu Fugui to bring a pen, then grabbed a tissue and started writing quickly.

Soon, a beauty secret formula was written out. Ye Fei thought for a moment and added the name: "羞花."

"姐，这是一个美容秘方，你拿回去给研发部看看。"

Ye Fei handed the secret formula to Shen Yan: "它的效果胜过市面上所有美容产品，比公司年轻三岁的好不少。"

看着秘方，Qian Shenghuo smiled, though he didn’t think Ye Fei’s medical skills would translate into success with secret formulas.

隔行如隔山，美容更是如此，里面水深着呢！但这种话，Qian Shenghuo没办法说得太直白。

他稍微委婉开口：“横扫市面上产品啊？”

Ye Fei nodded lightly: "可以年轻十岁左右。"

年轻十岁？

Qian Shenghuo smiled bitterly, knowing that the secret formula was completely unreliable.

年轻三岁的宫廷秘方已经是尘世珍宝，年轻十岁，那是神仙产品，市面上根本没见过。

"羞花？"

名字不错……" Shen Yan was slightly taken aback, then smiled dismissively.

She, like her husband, thought Ye Fei was talking nonsense.

国外最顶尖的产品，不过年轻六岁左右效果，Ye Fei却说羞花能年轻十岁，这水分也太大了。

Shen Yan was somewhat disappointed. She had come to discuss the matter with Ye Fei, hoping he could use his connections with the Han family, but instead, he gave her a secret formula as a敷衍.

当然，Shen Yan didn’t want to discourage Ye Fei, so she said gently: "好，我晚点去问问药老。"

She folded the tissue and put it in her pocket...
