"Mr. Ling, please don't rush off just yet, I have one more favor to ask of you."

Ling Zhenfei paused and said, "What is it? Go ahead."

Watanabe Nagayumi said, "Well, as I mentioned earlier, I want to acquire this Phoenix Elixir Furnace to heal someone. But I think even if I got this furnace, it might not be able to heal the person."

"However, since your medical expertise is astounding, would you be willing to come to Japan to help me treat a patient?"

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. Going to Japan was fine, as long as the price was right. More importantly, there was another piece of yellow cloth at Watanabe's place. If he could get that piece, he would have four pieces, enough to piece together another cultivation technique.

The thought of the cultivation technique on the piece of yellow cloth excited Ling Zhenfei immensely. He couldn't wait to get his hands on it.

"I'm sorry, but I don't like traveling to other places to treat people."

Although Ling Zhenfei really wanted to go, he couldn't admit it out loud right now. Only this way could he get the price he wanted.

Watanabe Nagayumi said, "Mr. Ling, I truly ask for your help. I know your medical arts are very well-known. If you can treat him, I will be immensely grateful."

Ling Zhenfei pretended to hesitate and said, "I'm really sorry, but you know, the cost of treating someone away from home is very high."

Watanabe Nagayumi laughed at Ling Zhenfei's words: "Divine Doctor Ling, we can negotiate the price. How much do you think is appropriate?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "I'm not particularly concerned about money. You know, for someone at my level, money is just a number."

"Then what do you want?" Watanabe Nagayumi seemed to think of something and asked.

Ling Zhenfei smiled: "Well, treasures like the Phoenix Elixir Furnace are, of course, more the better."

Watanabe Nagayumi's face changed: "Divine Doctor Ling, you must be joking. Treasures like the Phoenix Elixir Furnace and the Dragon Tooth Dagger are rare and hard to come by. How could there be many of them?"

Ling Zhenfei said helplessly, "Then what price can you offer? Are you going to give me the piece of yellow cloth from your home?"

Watanabe Nagayumi said, "Of course, if Mr. Ling likes it, that piece of yellow cloth is yours."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That piece of yellow cloth alone is not enough."

Watanabe Nagayumi thought for a moment and said: "How about this, the piece of yellow cloth plus one million, including round-trip expenses. Would that be acceptable?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and felt the price was about right. Actually, just the piece of yellow cloth was already very appealing to him.

"Alright then, but I need some time before I can go. Also, I don't know yet, what exactly is the condition of the patient you want me to treat?"

Watanabe Nagayumi sighed and said, "It's a very strange illness. There's gangrene on the leg. Although one leg has been amputated, the other leg is now also getting gangrene."

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and couldn't figure out what the situation was. Could someone really get gangrene for no reason?

"Alright, I'm also very curious about what kind of disease this is."

Watanabe Nagayumi was very happy and said, "When could you come to Japan? I hope you can go as soon as possible; the situation over there is very urgent."

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "In a few days. I'll go to Japan after I take care of things here."

Watanabe Nagayumi was very pleased: "Then I'll wait for your news, thank you."

After exchanging contact information, Watanabe Nagayumi got into his car and left.

After Watanabe Nagayumi left, Jiang Hui emerged from the nearby woods.

"That was impressive! You knocked that guy into the water just now."

Jiang Hui had seen from afar that Ling Zhenfei had knocked Watanabe Nagayumi into the water, and was very happy.

"Let's go home quickly."

Jiang Hui asked, "Who was that person just now? He seemed pretty formidable too."

Ling Zhenfei didn't want to answer this question. Pretending not to hear, he asked Jiang Hui, "Can we catch a cab here?"

Jiang Hui looked around and said, "I should've stopped the taxi earlier."

After waiting for a long time without seeing a taxi pass by, Ling Zhenfei had no choice but to call Luo Juan and ask her to send a car to pick them up.

In no time, Luo Juan arrived in her car and drove them straight to their office.

There weren't many people in the office now. Luo Juan was in charge of the marketing department, and most of the staff there were out in the field, so there weren't many people.

"Boss Ling, what were you doing there? How did you end up in that place?" Luo Juan asked curiously.

"Nothing much. The driver got lost. How's the company's situation now?"

Luo Juan laughed: "Everything is going very well. Over 130 restaurants in the Provincial City are now using our vegetables, which is the maximum supply capacity of our manor."

Ling Zhenfei knew that it was very easy to find restaurants that wanted their vegetables from Xishan Manor, but the supply was limited, so expansion wasn't possible.

Ling Zhenfei was fully aware of this situation and was trying to find a solution.

Right now, the greenhouses in Xishan Manor were under full construction. They were almost hiring daily, with new batches of employees being trained every day.

But the employees now were different from those hired before. The current contracts were very restrictive, giving Xishan Manor the right to dismiss employees at any time.

Initially, it cost a lot to get rid of lazy villagers from Qinghe Village who were hired. Now Xishan Manor adhered to the principle of "better none than subpar". If an employee was unsuitable for their position, they would be reassigned immediately. If they still didn't fit after a few reassignments, they would be dismissed.

This was crucial for the healthy development of the company. Even if they transformed Qinghe Village entirely into greenhouses, it would be impossible to supply vegetables to restaurants nationwide.

Going forward, they would have to decrease the quantity of vegetables used, ensuring that high quality would yield the highest profit.

Ling Zhenfei planned not to massively promote Xishan Manor's vegetables but to focus on Xi Shan Restaurant.

By opening branches of Xi Shan Restaurant in every city nationwide, Xishan Manor's vegetables could be exclusively supplied to Xi Shan Restaurant, ensuring sufficient quantity.

More importantly, if only Xi Shan Restaurant used Xishan Manor's vegetables, there would be no competition. Xi Shan Restaurant could outshine ordinary restaurants.

However, this was just a thought; opening branches nationwide would be extremely difficult, almost an impossible task.

At this time, Jiang Hui was hungry. Coincidentally, Luo Juan hadn't eaten either, so Luo Juan took Ling Zhenfei and Jiang Hui to a restaurant.
