Chapter 125 That Bottle of Medicine



At this moment, all the servants were summoned to a meeting in the garden by Butler Cao.

Zhou Yi went directly to the underground parking garage and found Aunt Zhou's car.

He quickly found the bottle of medicine in Aunt Zhou's car. This stuff was contraband! If it was found, it would be illegal! It was hidden in the leather cushion of the passenger seat.

The black leather cushion was slit open with a knife, and the medicine was stuffed inside.

People like Aunt Zhou either drive themselves or have a chauffeur.

No one will sit in the passenger seat, so no one will check for any changes in the passenger seat.

Zhou Yi put on white gloves and took the medicine out of it.

At this moment, all the servants were still in a meeting. Zhou Yi walked to the storage room where Su and her daughter lived, turned the doorknob, and the door opened.

He stuffed the poison under the only bed in the storage room, in a dark corner where no light could reach.

After finishing everything, Zhou Yi took off his white gloves, went back upstairs to the kitchen, and then threw them into the trash can.

Only after the chef had prepared the food did Zhou Yi ask Butler Cao to go upstairs and call Aunt Zhou down to eat.

"Alright, everyone should remember what I said this time."

"Disband."

Butler Cao went upstairs to call Aunt Zhou.

Finally freed from Butler Cao's nagging, the group rubbed their aching calves and complained.

"Why is Butler Cao holding such a long meeting today?"

"I never thought Butler Cao was so long-winded before."

Another servant heard this and quickly shushed.

"Shh, do you dare say that Butler Cao is long-winded?"

"What's wrong with Butler Cao holding our meeting a little longer? She's a nice person."

No one knew that this meeting was arranged by Cao, the housekeeper, at Zhou Yi's request. The purpose was to find evidence that Su Qingjiao had hidden in Aunt Zhou's car, and then secretly put the items back into the hands of Su and her daughter.

If they want to harm me, then I'll just play along.

The shareholders are wary of Aunt Zhou. Only if they themselves have problems and are truly poisoned will the shareholders dare to target Aunt Zhou.

This time, Zhou Yi will let the shareholders have their way for now.

In a couple of days, he planned to fake a cough, break out in a cold sweat from time to time, and pretend to continue being hospitalized to lower the shareholders' guard and make them believe that he had really been infected.

After a short nap, Aunt Zhou felt much better.

After finishing their meal downstairs, the two went up to the study on the second floor to talk.

Despite her exhaustion, Aunt Zhou couldn't hide her joy as she showed Zhou Yi the company's products: "Xiao Yi, thanks to the continuous research and development by those research teams, we've finally succeeded!"

"Moreover, we have already had someone try it, and it does have a hair growth and maintenance effect."

"I believe that once this product is launched, it will definitely be the first to seize the market."

It's clear that Aunt Zhou has put a lot of effort into developing new products; the bottle design gives off a grand, ancient feel.

Zhou Yi touched the ingredient list on the bottle with his fingertip. It showed that traditional Chinese medicine made up the majority of the ingredients, and these herbs could indeed nourish the hair and were harmless to the body.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yi opened the product, took a slight sniff, and immediately understood what was going on.

The product description is accurate; these are indeed the traditional Chinese medicine ingredients.

As long as the production process is strictly controlled, there shouldn't be any problems.

Zhou Yi nodded: "Okay!"

"Auntie, you did a great job."

Hearing Zhou Yi say this, Aunt Zhou sighed and said anxiously, "Alas, it's actually a little bit different from what I imagined."

"When you smell this product, do you feel it's lacking a certain fragrance?"

"This product is great in every way, except it lacks fragrance; the herbal smell is too strong."

"After washing my hair, the smell of Chinese medicine can linger on my hair for several hours."

“I was thinking of asking them to add some essential oils or fragrances, but they said that would cause the medicine to lose its efficacy.”

"Actually, this product was developed two months ago. In order to change the taste of Chinese medicine, the researchers worked day and night, but they were not satisfied with the results no matter what they did."

"So I plan to change my strategy and focus on promoting hair care with traditional Chinese medicine."

Zhou Yi was puzzled, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.

Everyone around me has fragrant hair when they go out, but I only smell of Chinese medicine. Just the smell of medicine makes people think of hospitals and sickness, which are unpleasant things.

Not only does it affect my mood, but even if someone buys it, they wouldn't dare use it, afraid that someone would be able to smell it immediately.

If the product development is just for a short-term novelty and doesn't have long-term customers, then it can be considered a failure!

Because she was facing Zhou Yi, Aunt Zhou revealed all her emotions on her face, nine parts worry and one part joy.

Zhou Yi took out paper and pen from the drawer and began to write down some medicinal herbs on them.

"Auntie, try adding these herbs. They will not only have a wonderful aroma, but they also won't neutralize the properties of other herbs."

Aunt Zhou took the paper from Zhou Yi with suspicion. She had never heard of the first few medicinal herbs, but the last one was ylang-ylang.

Aunt Zhou pursed her lips, not wanting to dampen Zhou Yi's enthusiasm.

Zhou Yi closed the pen and put it back. Seeing that Aunt Zhou's brows were furrowed, he said:

"Auntie, just say what you want to say."

Aunt Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Yi, I had them try adding ylang-ylang before, but after adding ylang-ylang, the medicinal properties of these Chinese herbs changed."

"Products with added ylang-ylang have a rotten, plant-like odor."

Zhou Yi crossed his arms on the table and looked at Aunt Zhou with a determined gaze.

"That's why I added a few Chinese herbs at the beginning. These herbs will neutralize the medicinal properties of the herbs, so that the fragrance of the ylang-ylang will not only not be altered, but will also make the fragrance of the ylang-ylang last longer."

After a pause, Zhou Yi suddenly remembered something.

He picked up his pen and quickly wrote down a whole page of Chinese medicine ingredients and dosages on the paper.

“I suddenly remembered, you can take this piece of paper to them and get them to change.”

"In this way, although the amount of Chinese medicine increases, the cost remains the same, so there is no need to worry about the profit."

Aunt Zhou took the paper from Zhou Yi with a skeptical attitude, and after just one glance, she exclaimed in surprise.

She asked incredulously, "Xiao Yi, how do you know the dosage of each Chinese herbal ingredient in the products we developed?"

Zhou Yi wrote down the required dosages of all the Chinese herbal ingredients in the product on a piece of paper, and then wrote down the improved dosages at the end.

The original product contained a relatively expensive Chinese herbal medicine, which was used in large quantities. However, after Zhou Yi's improvement, the amount of this expensive herbal medicine needed was greatly reduced.

As an investor in this product, Aunt Zhou naturally needs to know its ingredients and control costs.

How could Zhou Yi, who hadn't even joined the company, know the required dosage of ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine?

Although the product description is included, the quantity is not clearly stated.
