Huo Qianli bought Gu Haitao a bottle of drink to help him relax a little, told him to keep an eye on his backpack, and then walked into a public telephone booth nearby.

Although he has a mobile phone, Huo Qianli still tries to save money wherever possible because of the existence of long-distance calls and roaming between cities.

Huo Qianli called Zhang Chi and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Zhang, I'm in Jincheng now. How do you think we can meet and get there?"

"Oh, Brother Huo, I was just waiting for your call!" Zhang Chi said apologetically, "Professor He has a very important meeting today, and he specifically asked me to tell you that he has sent a text message to the chairman of the pharmaceutical company. You can just go there, and he will contact you after the meeting. I will send you the information about the company right away."

"Okay, okay!" Huo Qianli nodded quickly, said a few simple polite words, and hung up the phone.

Before I finished the call, Zhang Chi received a text message. It was a long paragraph, which was indeed a draft that had been prepared in advance.

Huo Qianli clicked on it and, apart from the useless descriptions, there were mainly a few key words: [Wenxing Pharmaceutical, Address: XXXX, Chairman: Xia Wanqing, Office Phone: XXXX]

After saying thank you to Zhang Chi, Huo Qianli looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon, so he simply found a shopping mall near Wenxing Pharmaceutical and took Gu Haitao to eat something delicious while tidying up his appearance.

Gu Haitao's temperament is indeed wild. Being in a completely unfamiliar place, he was reserved for only a short while and soon became generous.

At 1:40 in the afternoon, Huo Qianli and Gu Haitao appeared at the door of Wenxing Pharmaceutical Company.

Looking at the magnificent building in front of him, with the help of Professor He's relationship, Huo Qianli turned on his mobile phone and directly dialed the number of the owner of the building.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Huo Qianli put down his phone helplessly.

Gu Haitao hesitated and asked, "You still haven't answered?"

Huo Qianli, who had made several calls in a row, hummed, "He's probably still having lunch."

It was a scorching hot day as the two of them squatted under a tree by the road. Every passing car created a wave of heat.

Gu Haitao chuckled, "Fortunately there is no dust on the road to the provincial capital, otherwise we wouldn't have to eat dinner tonight."

Huo Qianli turned his head to look at him and smiled, "You have a good attitude."

At 2:30 in the afternoon, the call was still not connected, so Huo Qianli had to get up and walk to the gate.

"Stop! What are you doing?!"

A head popped out of the small house at the gate and shouted at Huo Qianli.

Huo Qianli smiled and said, "Hello, comrade. I'm here to visit President Xia."

The security guard, who was reluctant to leave the fan's sphere of influence behind him, leaned back in his chair, squinting his mouth and looking at the side, "Which Mr. Xia? There are many Mr. Xias here."

"Xia Wanqing, President Xia."

The security guard paused for a moment and sat up straight, "Do you have an appointment?"

Huo Qianli nodded, "Yes."

"Hold on."

The security guard reached out and picked up the landline in front of him, dialed a few numbers, and then stood up involuntarily the moment the call was connected, "Director Tang, there are two people here who want to see President Xia. They said they have an appointment. Um, um, hello, which unit are you two from?"

Seeing the security guard looking at him again, Huo Qianli smiled and said, "I'm from Hushan Village, Dongjiang County. My name is Huo Qianli."

The security guard relayed the words to the other end, who then nodded with "um" and "ah".

After hanging up the phone, the security guard tore off a piece of paper, copied a phone number and handed it to Huo Qianli, "This is Director Tang's phone number in the office. If you want to see President Xia, just contact him. Call him now. He's waiting over there."

Gu Haitao said speechlessly: "Why didn't you just ask us to pick up the phone..."

Huo Qianli patted him silently, took it with a smile, thanked him, walked to the side and dialed, "Director Tang, hello."

On the other end of the phone, a middle-aged man's calm voice with a hint of arrogance said lightly, "What do you want to talk to Mr. Xia about?"

"It's like this. We are from Hushan Village, Dongjiang County. We produce some traditional Chinese medicines there. We have several hundred acres of land now. We want to talk to Mr. Xia about whether we can build a point-to-point medicinal material base."

Huo Qianli did not reveal Professor He's relationship. This is a very basic principle.

Director Tang hesitated for a moment, "How did President Xia arrange it?"

"We just made an appointment to meet in advance. We haven't talked about the main topic yet!" Huo Qianli couldn't say anything casually, so he could only answer truthfully.

"Actually, this matter is of little use to us." The middle-aged man groaned for a moment, "Forget it, since Ms. Xia has already considered it, we can't say much. But she is quite busy today, as a leader is coming to inspect. How about this, I will try to arrange a meeting for you tomorrow."

Huo Qianli frowned immediately, but still smiled and thanked him.

"Why are you being so polite? It's not easy for you to come here. But Mr. Xia manages such a large company, and he really doesn't have enough time. You have to understand."

Huo Qianli naturally said something like it didn't matter.

Director Tang smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to come here for business in medicinal materials. How about this, I will introduce you to a few medicinal materials owners tonight, and you can sit together. More friends mean more opportunities."

"You're welcome." Huo Qianli thanked him, and then said with embarrassment: "It's a coincidence. I do have something to do tonight. Thank you Director Tang for your kindness."

Director Tang said in a slightly cold tone, "Then leave your phone number. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Qianli sneered and looked at Gu Haitao, "Is there any place you want to go? We should have two or three hours of free time now."

Gu Haitao was surprised and asked, "You won't even let me see you?"

Huo Qian turned his head to look at the building and said with a smile: "It's a big company, so there are indeed a lot of tricks."
