Aunt Niu knew that Zhang Zhaodi wanted to drink the medicine, so she sent her out of the kitchen and washed the dishes by herself.

In Zhang Zhaodi’s room, looking at the bowl of bitter soup in Zhang Dong’s hands, her pretty face was filled with reluctance.
“Dongzi, do you really have to drink it? Anemia isn’t that serious. I even asked the doctor at the village clinic, and he said eating more red dates and drinking more red sugar water would be fine.”
Hearing this, Zhang Dong was speechless.
Then he shook his head seriously: “They are all quacks! I, your little brother, am the real master physician. Sister, are you going to listen to the quacks or to me, the master physician?”
Zhang Zhaodi had no choice but to obediently take the bowl.
Zhou Zheng’s illness, which the county hospital said couldn’t be cured and required treatment in a big city costing millions, was immediately healed by her brother Zhang Dong. This had spread throughout the village.
Zhang Zhaodi wasn’t doubting her brother; she just didn’t want to drink the bitter soup.
She pinched her nose and forced herself to take a sip, then put the bowl on the table with a pained expression.
“It’s too bitter! I can’t drink it!”
Zhang Dong didn’t believe it: “Really that bitter? Let me try!”
He picked up the bowl and took a sip, also showing a bitter face.
“So bitter! Really bitter! Could it be because of the Blood Spirit Grass?”
Suddenly, Zhang Dong noticed that his sister’s face was red, looking very shy.
Just as he was puzzled, he found the reason.
It turned out that where Zhang Dong had just drunk, there was a faint lipstick mark left by his sister!
In other words, the two of them had indirectly kissed!
Zhang Dong suddenly understood why his sister was so shy.
“I, I’ll drink it, Dongzi, you go out quickly!” The shy Zhang Zhaodi was stuttering.
Zhang Dong also felt awkward and quickly found an excuse to leave his sister’s room.
He really didn’t mean to; it was just a coincidence that they drank from the same spot.
Speaking of which, the two of them had experienced various coincidences recently. If they weren’t so close, they might have had some misunderstandings long ago.
After Zhang Dong left, Zhang Zhaodi let out a sigh of relief, wiping her still burning cheeks with the back of her hand.
Really, they were just siblings. Even if they accidentally kissed indirectly, it shouldn’t matter!
But why did she care so much? Could it be…
Zhang Zhaodi suddenly froze, sitting there in a daze for a long time.
The next morning, Zhang Dong was still in bed when a hurried phone call woke him up.
Lazily answering the call, Zhang Dong asked, “Who is it? What do you want?”
“Ha! Little Brother Zhang, it’s me, your Brother Ma!” The phone rang with Ma Deputy General’s joyful voice.
“I’m here to report good news! Your Yangjing wine is simply amazing! After I drank it yesterday, I couldn’t resist and tried it with my wife!”
“Guess what? I completely conquered her! Ha, when my wife begged for mercy, you can’t imagine how accomplished I felt!”
“And this Yangjing wine doesn’t harm the body at all. We played until late last night, several times, but this morning I woke up early and didn’t feel tired at all, even feeling several times more energetic than usual!”
Hearing Ma Deputy General’s report, Zhang Dong immediately perked up.
He didn’t expect the Yangjing wine to be so effective for others. It seems that using Spirit Rain to brew the medicinal wine really works!
“Little Brother Zhang, the reason I called you so early is not only to report the good news but also to ask you something. Can this Yangjing wine be mass-produced?” Ma Deputy General suddenly asked seriously.
Mentioning this, Zhang Dong instinctively shook his head: “Mass-produced? Of course not! I don’t even know how to brew wine.”
Indeed, brewing wine with Spirit Rain is too labor-intensive and time-consuming!
To mass-produce the Yangjing wine, ordinary brewed wine would have to be used, and then the Spirit Rain generated by the Spirit Rain Technique would be used to dissolve the medicinal properties. This would not only be easier but also allow for mass production.
Unexpectedly, Ma Deputy General was very excited: “Little Brother, if I can find a brewery, can we mass-produce the Yangjing wine?”
“Brewery? If there’s a brewery, it should be possible. But Brother Ma, where is this brewery?” Zhang Dong asked.
Ma Deputy General was even happier: “Do you know Xishan Village? My wife has a distant relative who married there. Their village has a brewery that’s about to go bankrupt and is urgently looking for someone to take it over!”
“Xishan Village brewery? Could it be the Xishan Brewery?” Zhang Dong was somewhat surprised.
Ma Deputy General nodded eagerly: “Yes, yes, it’s called Xishan Brewery. Have you heard of it, Little Brother Zhang?”
“What a coincidence!” Zhang Dong couldn’t believe it. “Xishan Village is right next to our village and was originally part of our village!”
Dongshan Village was originally a large village with over a thousand households.
But later, due to certain events, Dongshan Village split!
With the small bridge at the village entrance as the boundary, the eastern part remained Dongshan Village, while the western part became Xishan Village.
Xishan Village had a large population, nearly a thousand households.
In comparison, Dongshan Village, with only about fifty households, seemed sparsely populated.
Moreover, Xishan Village not only had a large population but also a thriving economy, with the Xishan Brewery being a significant source of income for the village.
However, it was recently heard that the Xishan Brewery was poorly managed and was about to go bankrupt.
At the time, Zhang Dong thought it was just a rumor, but now he knew it was true!
But then he frowned: “Brother Ma, I know the Xishan Brewery. It’s a pillar industry of Xishan Village. To acquire it, it will definitely cost a lot of money!”
Mentioning this, Ma Deputy General was unconcerned.
“I’ve asked. The village chief said that if we can come up with one million, they are willing to sell the brewery, including the factory! It has a mature production line, ready to start production!”
“One million…” Zhang Dong was speechless.
“Brother Ma, you must have forgotten that I recently borrowed ten thousand from your boss Yang. Where am I supposed to find one million?”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Ma Deputy General’s mischievous laugh came from the other end of the line.
“Little Brother Zhang, you’re too honest! We may not have the money, but we can have Boss Yang invest! She can put in one million and take a 40% share, while you take a 60% share!”
“Have Boss Yang put in one million? And only take a 40% share?” Zhang Dong was stunned.
This sounded like a fairy tale.
Ma Deputy General sensed Zhang Dong’s thoughts and continued to laugh: “Little Brother Zhang, let me tell you, the effects of this Yangjing wine are almost miraculous! I’ve been around for many years and know very well the situation of those big bosses in the city.
They spend all day in the company of women, and their bodies are already in bad shape! Once this wine is out, they’ll be fighting to buy it at five thousand per bottle!”
“With that in mind, isn’t it reasonable for Boss Yang to take a 40% share?”
