After returning home, Chen Jia took out 10 bottles of 666 Weitai, a total of 100 pills, from his magical big backpack.
Chen Shuqin picked it up and took a look. She felt that the packaging was very simple, and even the shape and size of the pills were not very regular, which made her even more unsure about the efficacy of the medicine.
But this nephew from the mainland can be seen to be a very opinionated person. Since he dared to make a guarantee, there must be something extraordinary about this medicine. Chen Shuqin decided to trust him this time.
However, Chen Xia was very confident and explained to her in detail the magic of this stomach pill.
"Aunt, this stomach pill is mainly suitable for stomach problems such as gastric ulcers, duodenal ulcers, reflux esophagitis, chronic gastritis, etc., especially stomach pain caused by excessive gastric acid secretion. One pill will be effective."
"Is this true? One pill works?"
Chen Shuqin looked at the glass bottle in her hand with a little surprise. The dark brown pills inside seemed to have some magical power.
"Then I'm going to try it myself to see if you're bragging. I've been working in the workplace for so many years, and my diet has been irregular, so I've had chronic stomach problems. And your great-grandfather and great-aunt, they had a hard time in the past, they didn't have enough to eat, and their stomach problems were quite serious.
I'll let my family try it first, and if it works, I'll let my friends try it. If it's really as miraculous as you say, I'll talk to the owner of Longfeng Pharmacy. He's an old comrade of your great-grandfather's, so he might give him some face."
"Haha, little aunt, you really are a strong and decisive woman. I'll be waiting for your good news. Oh, by the way, the work of registering the company, recruiting employees, and finding a designer will be left to you.
When the time comes, give me the design and I'll find someone in the mainland to help with the processing. After all, it's probably difficult to find jade craftsmen in Hong Kong, and the wages are high, so it's not cost-effective."
Chen Shuqin nodded in agreement:
"It's easy to find regular employees, but jewelry designers and jade craftsmen are quite difficult to find. They all work for large jewelry companies, and poaching them is the most offensive. I think we could start by looking at designs from other jewelry companies. You can have jade craftsmen in China design some designs themselves, and then have them crafted and shipped to Hong Kong for sale. How do you think that would be?"
"That's all I can do. If the designer's level is too low, it's useless. If the designer's level is too high, I can't hire him. I can only try it myself. Anyway, our jadeite is all high-grade ice or glass. I can use the quality to make up for the design flaws. It shouldn't be a big problem."
The aunt and nephew discussed some details, and the next step was preparation.
The shop on Nathan Road that Chen Defa mentioned is currently rented by a jewelry store, and the rent is due at the end of the year. Chen Shuqin has six months to prepare, and she herself must first resign from Zhou's Jewelry Company.
As for pharmaceutical companies, she is an outsider, but she is an insider about how companies operate and import and export procedures, so Chen Xia doesn't need to worry too much about this.
His main preparations now are two-fold. One is to open a jade processing workshop in Yuezhou, referring to the jewelry design drawings that his aunt brought back from the company, and using half a year to produce as much jade jewelry as possible.
Another goal was to improve the packaging of 666 Weitai pills, standardizing the weight, size, and shape of the pills. Product packaging is crucial; while it might seem sloppy for domestic sales, it's crucial for Hong Kong and international sales.
And appearance often represents justice.
Finally, Chen Xia took out $500,000 in cash, which really scared Chen Shuqin.
It's not that she had never seen a woman who had never seen money, but she had never seen a poor boy from the mainland actually spend 500,000 US dollars in cash.
"Xiao Xia, where did you get so much money? How did you get past the inspection?"
"Hehe, our ancestors have their own clever plan. You don't have to worry, little aunt. I have my own channels, and it's absolutely foolproof."
Chen Shuqin didn't ask any more questions. At that time, there were countless smuggling channels between the mainland and Hong Kong. It was no secret. She naturally thought that her eldest nephew had also taken this route.
"This money is for you to register your company, renovate the store, and hire employees. I don't know if it's enough. If it's not, there's more."
"That's enough, your great-grandfather said he wanted to invest in us. Actually, you don't have to take out this money at all."
"That won't do," Chen Xia shook his head. "Grandpa has worked so hard for so many years, it's not easy for me to rely on him."
Chen Shuqin chuckled. "I didn't expect our personalities to be so similar. I also didn't want to rely on my family, so I kept clamoring for his property. Many times, he got so angry that he said he would give it to his brothers back home in Yuezhou and not leave me a penny. Hahaha."
Everything in Hong Kong is ready, and the Yuezhou inspection team is ready to return to the mainland.
Chen Defa was very reluctant to leave Chen Xia and Chen Dong. "Xiao Xia, are you really not considering settling in Hong Kong? Wouldn't it be more convenient for you and your aunt to start a company that way?"
Chen Xia also supported the old man and said patiently:
"Grandpa, I have a family and a career in the mainland, so I can't give them up all at once. But now that you're here, it's much more convenient for me to travel back and forth. Don't worry, I'll definitely come to Hong Kong often."
The eldest lady held Gu Lin and Chen Qiu's hands, repeatedly telling them to have a safe journey. Especially Gu Lin, the eldest grandson of the Chen family depended entirely on her.
Chen Shuqin looked impatient: "Okay, okay, it's not a life-and-death separation. This kid will be here in a few months."
Chen De rolled his eyes at his little daughter with an unhappy look on his face. Now that he had an older grandson, the more he looked at his daughter, the more he disliked her. The power of intergenerational affection was too great.
"Grandpa, I have a suggestion. Now that the mainland has opened up, you can come and visit when you have time, or come back during the Chinese New Year. Our family can reunite in Qingfeng Village and pay our respects to our great-grandparents."
Chen Xia's proposal made Chen Defa and the old lady quite interested.
Yes, they are already over 70 years old and have not lived long. If they don’t go back, they will probably die in a foreign land for the rest of their lives.
After all, Hong Kong is not their hometown, even if they have lived there for half their lives.
Before leaving, the old man and the old woman gave each of them a red envelope. In total, Chen Xia and the other three received a total of 50,000 Hong Kong dollars in red envelopes each, not including Chen Chun's share.
I have to say that our fellow Hong Kong people are really generous, giving away five millionaires at once.
After all, all good things must come to an end. This separation is for a better reunion next time, so we have to say goodbye.
The car drove out for fun, but the old man and the old woman were still standing there, waving from afar and wiping away tears quietly.
Outside the Wulin Gate, I send off the boat, myriad feelings of parting follow the water...
After joining the main force, the Yuezhou inspection team crossed the border to Shenzhen City on the same day. Half a month after leaving, they finally returned to Yuezhou.
