Jimi's room was a VIP suite on the third floor of the VIP building, while Chen Yuan had arranged a standard double room on the second floor for Yang Jie. Yang Jie followed Wang Yue'e to the room and saw that Liu Daxing was already waiting inside.
"Xiao Jie, there wasn't time to ask you earlier, what exactly happened today?" Liu Daxing sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Yang Jie seriously.
"Uncle, it was a coincidence today. I left home to come to the guesthouse and just happened to run into Secretary Zhou and the others who were accompanying foreign businessmen to Fuxin..." Yang Jie recounted the important parts of what had happened to Liu Daxing and Wang Yue'e.
After hearing that Yang Jie was a bit hungry, Wang Yue'e hurried back to the restaurant to prepare food for him. Once she left, Liu Daxing's face darkened, and he stared at Yang Jie for a long time without speaking.
"Uncle, did I do anything wrong?" Yang Jie's heart skipped a beat, realizing that his sudden increase in alcohol tolerance had aroused Liu Daxing's suspicion.
Liu Daxing looked at Yang Jie and asked in a stern voice, "When did your alcohol tolerance become so good? You drank nearly ten kilograms of 56-degree Wuheliang liquor in one go and didn't even show any signs of being drunk. When did my brother-in-law's liquor turn into a beverage?"
Yang Jie knew Liu Daxing would be suspicious. He chuckled and said, "Uncle, when I was in Yanjing, I met an old doctor from Northeast China. I got a hangover cure recipe from him. If you take the small pills made from this recipe before drinking, you won't get drunk even if you drink twenty kilograms."
"You're telling a story!" Liu Daxing scoffed, not believing such a thing could exist.
Before making up the lie, Yang Jie had secretly asked Xiao Wu, who confirmed that such a potent hangover cure existed in the future. The recipe was available and not difficult to make, requiring only basic equipment from a high school chemistry lab once the ingredients were prepared.
"Uncle, you don't believe me? I'll show you the proof one day! You'll see for yourself!" Yang Jie said confidently, showing no signs of lying. Since he rarely lied to Liu Daxing, Liu Daxing began to take interest in the hangover cure.
"Are you telling the truth? Do you really have the recipe? Can you make it?" Liu Daxing's eyes sparkled as he asked seriously.
"Of course! When have I ever lied to you? If I have all the ingredients, I can make it today!" Yang Jie nodded confidently, exciting Liu Daxing.
Liu Daxing was one of the earliest private mine owners in Fuxin Tungsten Mine, who had contracted and operated his own mining area. He had a good relationship with the mine manager Li Mingsheng, and his wife managed the mine guesthouse. He was well-known and respected in Fuxin Tungsten Mine.
With a growing reputation and expanding social circle, Liu Daxing had to deal with all sorts of people, and drinking was an inevitable part of his social life. Although his alcohol tolerance was decent, his body couldn't handle constant drinking.
Hearing that Yang Jie had a hangover cure recipe, Liu Daxing's eyes couldn't help but sparkle. Moreover, with his business acumen, he realized that if Yang Jie's recipe worked, the demand for such a hangover cure in China alone would be enormous.
Possessing such a recipe would be like sitting on a gold mine, a gold mine with limitless potential.
"Xiao Jie, tell me, how many people besides you know about this recipe?" Liu Daxing's eyes flashed with a keen look as he asked in a low voice.
Yang Jie, being a smart and high-achieving economics student, immediately understood Liu Daxing's intentions. "Besides me, only the old doctor from Northeast China knows. He went to Yanjing, and I helped him by chance, so he gave me the recipe and said he wouldn't pass it on to anyone else. He was already in poor health at the time, and I think he has already passed away. So, I believe I'm the only one who knows this recipe now."
Liu Daxing, hearing this, stood up excitedly and paced around the room a few times before making a decision. He looked at Yang Jie seriously and said, "Xiao Jie, what ingredients does this recipe need? I'll get them for you right away. Can you make the pills immediately?"
"No problem, as long as I have all the ingredients, I can make them quickly." Yang Jie confirmed after checking with Xiao Wu.
"Great! Write down the ingredients you need, and I'll go get them right away. We'll try to make them before you leave Fuxin Tungsten Mine. If it works, we'll be rich!" Liu Daxing hurriedly took a ballpoint pen from his shirt pocket and handed it to Yang Jie.
Yang Jie, a high-achieving economics student with Xiao Wu as his intelligent light brain, had already guessed that Liu Daxing had plans for the hangover cure. He took the pen and sat in front of the TV cabinet, writing down the ingredients listed by Xiao Wu on a piece of paper.
"Uncle, are you planning to stop mining and start this hangover cure project? The investment for a pharmaceutical factory is not small. Do you have that much money?" Yang Jie asked jokingly as he wrote.
"Xiao Jie, you're a high-achieving economics student from Yanjing University. Can't you see the value of this hangover cure? Mining can only help me accumulate initial capital and earn my first pot of gold, but it won't make me a tycoon. This hangover cure could be the turning point in my future career. This is a big deal. I need to discuss it with your father. If the hangover cure works and the production cost isn't too high, I want to do this project with him. You provide the recipe and take 40% of the shares, which will be counted under your father's name. We'll handle the financial matters."
"Alright! You decide!" Yang Jie handed the list of ingredients to Liu Daxing, who had been waiting by the side.
Liu Daxing took the paper and looked at it. Yang Jie's cursive handwriting was beautiful, listing over a dozen ingredients, including Chinese herbs, chemical agents, and the roots of two common plants.
"The Chinese herbs can be bought at any clinic. The chemical agents might not be available in Fuxin Tungsten Mine, but you can buy Western medicines containing these agents. I'll figure out how to extract the relevant components, but the effectiveness might not be as good as the pills I took." Yang Jie pointed to several chemical agents on the list and explained to Liu Daxing.
"No problem, I'll go buy these things right away. Once I get them, we'll go to the high school across from the guesthouse. They have a chemistry lab where we can make the pills!" Liu Daxing noted down the names of the Western medicines and hurriedly left the room.
After Liu Daxing left, Yang Jie plopped down on the bed, lying flat and closing his eyes, pretending to rest while talking to Xiao Wu in his mind.
"Xiao Wu, are you sure you can make the hangover cure? If there's a problem, I won't have an excuse to fool Uncle."
Yang Jie stared at Xiao Wu's sexy figure, dressed in a well-fitted short dress, revealing her long, white legs. Her fair arms were crossed in front of her, accentuating her firm and alluring breasts.
"Brother Jie, rest assured! Although it's just a simple hangover cure, it still has the necessary effects. If we had all the ingredients and a professional sterile lab, we could make a more famous hangover cure from the future, which would make drinking as easy as drinking water." Xiao Wu's regretful expression made Yang Jie feel more confident about the hangover cure.
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, weren't you originally a crystal? After merging with me, where did you hide?" Yang Jie stopped asking about the hangover cure and looked at the sexy and alluring Xiao Wu, asking seriously.
"I have the ability to change form. After extracting your DNA, I entered your body and transformed into your cells. Part of me is integrated into your body, and part is directly integrated into your brain. I will only fully revert if you completely lose all life signs."
As Xiao Wu explained, she virtually outlined a four-dimensional image of Yang Jie's body in his mind, marking the area where the intelligent light brain was located.
Hearing that Xiao Wu would only leave his body if he died, Yang Jie no longer worried about having an intelligent light brain inside him.
