Chapter 745 - A Crisis of Snakes and Insects!

Chapter 745 A Crisis of Snakes and Insects!

“It’s not easy for you to be a big boss, but being a farmer is also not easy for me.”

Fang Qiu pointed at the Desert Cistanche growing on the ground outside the window and said with a sigh.

Fang Qiu did not grow Desert Cistanche for the purpose of making a profit at all. If he wanted to make money, it was quicker to earn the money by casting swords. Moreover, he could put all the money made from casting swords into his pocket, but now he was under close scrutiny by the public as he was growing the Desert Cistanche. However, Fang Qiu felt obliged to do this because he knew that the medicinal materials market was too chaotic at the moment. Therefore, from the beginning, his purpose was to clean up the present medicinal materials market and use this opportunity to tell everyone that really good medicine could be sold for a high price!

“Since we’ve reached an agreement, let’s sign the contract now.”

Yang Ningyuan urged, “By the way, when can you give me the first batch of Desert Cistanche?”

“In half a month.”

Fang Qiu answered.

Going by the amount of the Qi of Heaven and Earth on the current terrain, Fang Qiu estimated that the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the terrain should be sufficient in half a month.

Although the Desert Cistanche that was planted during this period was still far from being fully mature, the effect of this batch of Desert Cistanche would definitely be fine, as long as there was enough Qi of Heaven and Earth!

“Okay, I’ll wait for you for half a month.”

After he nodded, Yang Ningyuan said, “I don’t think you’ve prepared a contract, have you?”

“Okay, I’ll get someone to draw up a contract and send it to me.”

After looking around the office, Yang Ningyuan found that there was not even a computer in the office, except for a printer.

“Sure.”

Fang Qiu did not feel embarrassed at all.

Yang Ningyuan did not hesitate and immediately called someone to draft a contract and send it directly to his email.

After making the call, the two of them continued chatting.

“Oh, by the way.”

While chatting with him, Fang Qiu suddenly said, “For the contract, I have a few requirements.”

“What?”

Yang Ningyuan paused.

“Just one thing.”

Fang Qiu said, “All the medicines must be of the best quality and must undergo stringent testing. No matter what happens, you must not allow any standard issues or quality problems to happen to the medicine. Once there is such a problem, we will immediately stop the supply of Desert Cistanche. This must be written clearly in the contract.”

“Okay.”

Yang Ningyuan was a businessman, so he was not worried about this matter at all. He nodded and agreed directly. Then he called the people who drafted the contract and asked them to add this requirement into the contract.

Fang Qiu continued, “And don’t involve me when the medicine is being promoted.”

“Why?”

Yang Ningyuan gazed at Fang Qiu with a puzzled look.

He had already thought it through. With the help of Fang Qiu’s fame, this medicine would definitely amaze the whole country as soon as it came out and increase sales, which would save him a lot of money and effort.

But now Fang Qiu said that he could not do that.

Fang Qiu replied, “One can’t be too famous. One should try to keep a low profile if one can. When a thing reaches its extreme, it reverses its course.”

“We can’t mention your name in the promotion?”

Yang Ningyuan asked.

“It’s best if you don’t.”

Fang Qiu answered and nodded seriously.

“Okay, I got it.”

Yang Ningyuan nodded. Compared with the short-term interests, he was more interested in Fang Qiu. It would be fine even if they had to spend lots of effort to promote the medicine. As long as Fang Qiu was there, he believed that there would be a lot of opportunity for him to make money.

After a while, Yang Ningyuan received the contract.

After using the printer in the office to print it out, the two of them went through the contract. After making sure that there were no issues, they signed it.

“Since the contract has been settled, I have to give you the deposit first.”

After signing the contract, Yang Ningyuan directly asked Fang Qiu for his bank account and transferred 100 million to it. Then he put away the contract, stood up and said to Fang Qiu with a mysterious smile, “Nice to work with you. In order to celebrate the success of our cooperation this time, I will send you a great gift.”

“Then I’ll thank you first.”

Fang Qiu replied with a smile.

After that, Yang Ningyuan left.

The next day.

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Just as Fang Qiu was about to join the planting of a new batch of Desert Cistanche seedlings, his cell phone suddenly rang.

He took it out and looked at it.

It was from Yang Ningyuan.

“Hello?”

Fang Qiu answered the call.

“Fang Qiu, please come over to the Beijiang Provincial Government office now.”

Yang Ningyuan’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Why?”

Fang Qiu was confused.

“Come over right away. I’ll wait for you here.”

After saying that, Yang Ningyuan hung up.

Fang Qiu did not think much about it.

Having informed Zhao Shanlin, he drove to the Beijiang Provincial Government office by himself.

Fang Qiu had asked Li Ji to help him buy the car because he always felt that the quality of cars bought by the people in the army would be better.

The reason why he bought a car was naturally to make it convenient for everyone to commute in daily life. After all, there were a large number of people in the cultivation base now and the base was at the edge of the desert, which was quite far from the city. With a car, everyone’s life would be more comfortable.

Soon, he arrived at the Provincial Government office.

As expected, Fang Qiu saw Yang Ningyuan in the office.

“You’re here.”

When he saw Fang Qiu, Yang Ning came up to him with a broad smile.

Fang Qiu asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing.”

Yang Ningyuan took out a contract from his bag and handed it to Fang Qiu, saying, “Just sign this.”

Fang Qiu took it and had a look.

It turned out to be a land transfer contract.

The land outlined in the contract was the area surrounding Fang Qiu’s cultivation base, which was suitable for planting Desert Cistanche.

These pieces of land were not cheap. They were worth at least hundreds of millions!

“Hurry and sign it.”

Yang Ningyuan chuckled and said, “This is the gift from me. You did not expect this, did you?”

“I’m sorry to make you spend so much money.”

Fang Qiu replied.

“The government gave it to me.”

Yang Ningyuan immediately whispered in Fang Qiu’s ear and said, “The authorities heard that I was going to build a pharmaceutical factory here, so they offered me an extra piece of land. I asked for this piece of land for you.”

“Thank you.”

Hearing that, Fang Qiu immediately nodded with a smile and then took the pen.

He signed it!

“Beep, beep, beep…”

As soon as Fang Qiu signed the contract, his cell phone rang.

Fang Qiu took out his phone and answered immediately when he found that it was from Zhou Xiaotian.

“Bro, come back quickly. Something has happened!”

On the other side of the phone, Zhou Xiaotian’s tone was urgent and he sounded nervous.

“What’s wrong?”

Fang Qiu asked hurriedly.

“I can’t explain it clearly on the phone. Anyway, you should come back soon.”

Zhou Xiaotian urged.

Fang Qiu covered his phone, turned to Yang Ningyuan and said, “Something happened at the cultivation base. I need to get there now.”

“Okay.”

Yang Ningyuan nodded.

After saying goodbye to Yang Ningyuan, Fang Qiu immediately got into the car. His phone call to Zhou Xiaotian connected automatically with the Bluetooth in the car. Fang Qiu then stuffed the phone into his pocket and asked directly, “What happened? Tell me clearly.”

“Snake, snake…”

Zhou Xiaotian’s panicked voice could be heard saying, “And scorpions and lizards!”

“Are there many of those?”

Fang Qiu frowned.

“What do you mean are there many? It’s as dense as a swarm of locusts. Everyone is terrified. What should we do now?”

Zhou Xiaotian’s tone became more anxious.

Fang Qiu could hear people shouting panickedly at the other end of the phone.

In the car.

As soon as Fang Qiu heard that, he knew that it was a disaster caused by the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

All these animals had spirits. Humans might not be sensitive to this, but these animals were sensitive by nature. For example, a lizard could change its skin color and sense the moisture and humidity in the air. Naturally, it could also sense the density of the Qi of Heaven and Earth. The same principle applied to the other animals.

Under the attraction of the terrain, the Qi of Heaven and Earth was increasing. After absorbing the Qi of Heaven and Earth, Desert Cistanche would definitely become the food for these animals.

Now the Desert Cistanche was still growing.

If he did not handle this well, they would suffer heavy losses.

Fang Qiu was anxious.

He had no time to think about anything else. He stepped on the accelerator and raced back.

When Mr. Zhao found out that this place was close to the desert, he knew there would be a lot of snakes and insects, so he bought a lot of pesticides. He sprinkled it around the cultivation area and that kept all the snakes, scorpions and lizards that were attracted to the Qi of Heaven and Earth, outside.

Even so…

Looking at the mass of cold-blooded animals, people were scared. Everyone in the whole base was frightened.

With the help of the pesticides, the base managed to keep them out until Fang Qiu arrived.

Fang Qiu entered the base.

As soon as he saw the snakes and insects around the cultivation area, he immediately strode forward.

“Fang Qiu.”

Sun Hao grabbed Fang Qiu and said, “Are you crazy? There are so many venomous snakes and scorpions. If you get closer to them, you will die. Don’t go!”

“Yeah, why don’t we call the fire brigade?”

Zhou Xiaotian echoed immediately.

“Don’t call them!”

Fang Qiu immediately stopped him and said, “Firemen are really busy. Let’s not bother them with this.”

Fang Qiu was afraid that if they called the fire brigade, they would get the firemen into trouble. After all, these things were poisonous vermin. Moreover, under the attraction of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, it was impossible to kill them all. He did not want the firemen to get hurt.

“Then what should we do?”

Zhu Benzheng frowned, hid behind the crowd and said, “I’m particularly afraid of snakes. I don’t even dare to look at them.”

“Haha.”

Fang Qiu laughed and said, “Let me go. I’m the nemesis of insects. There won’t be any problem. Don’t worry.”

Sun Hao still did not dare to let go.

Fang Qiu exerted some strength and slipped out of Sun Hao’s grip. And then, while everyone was still exclaiming, he headed straight toward the snakes and insects.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”

Although the sound of a poisonous snake spitting and hissing was soft, the sounds from thousands of poisonous snakes gathered together were particularly ominous and loud.

Besides that, the sounds of the scorpions and lizards also made people shiver with fear!

When Fang Qiu went out, no one dared to look, so they closed their eyes.

Fang Qiu stood outside the cultivation area and released his Qi.

The moment these snakes and insects felt Fang Qiu’s power, they were so frightened that they immediately scattered. Soon, they all disappeared without a trace.

This scene amazed everyone.

“Damn!”

Seeing the sight of so many the snakes and insects retreating, Zhou Xiaotian immediately exclaimed and said to Fang Qiu, “Bro, are you really the nemesis of these poisonous insects?”

“Were you the king of insects in your previous life? You are awesome!”

Sun Hao also said in shock and then asked, “Can you call them out again and let me have a look?”

Fang Qiu chose to ignore these two fools directly.
