Chapter 319: Chapter 316 Immortal Rhyme (One more, asking for recommendation!)_1

Within Ren Feifan’s mind, there’s a prescription that could cure cancer!

However, one particular medicine in the prescription may prove fairly troublesome.

It’s the Immortal Rhyme.

Immortal Rhyme also goes by the names of Immortal Grass and Soul Resurrection Grass. Its stem is upright, flesh is thick, somewhat flat-round shaped, length of 10-60cm, and a thickness of up to 1.3cm. It is slightly sweet, bland, and salty, with cold properties. It is said to benefit the stomach, kidneys, and lungs, generating fluids and nourishing the yin, and clearing heat.

It’s not that Huaxia doesn’t have this medicine, rather it’s scarce in quantity, expensive, and extremely difficult to survive in the natural environment.

But now Ren Feifan only needs one plant of this Immortal Rhyme to solve his immediate problem.

At least it can treat a hundred thousand people.

But where could he get a plant like this?

Just as Ren Feifan was puzzled, Old Huang hurriedly came to Jiangnan Provincial Chinese Medicine Hospital, and found Ren Feifan after asking a few people.

When he saw Ren Feifan, he didn’t dare to breath heavily, he had understood the absurd thing that Cai Chongshen did on the road, he even planned to kill Cai Chongshen.

In the past, this guy ate the kickbacks from the imported equipment at Jiangnan Provincial Chinese Medicine Hospital, and he didn’t plan to investigate it, because most of the hospital leaders were doing so. He wasn’t an unreasonable person, so in light of Cai Chongshen’s achievements over the years, he chose to turn a blind eye.

But thinking of how absurd Cai Chongshen had acted, offending a person he himself did not dare to, he practically felt the urge to kill him.

In ward 1103, Old Huang saw Ren Feifan deep in thought.

He adjusted his emotions, walked over, and said apologetically, "Master Ren, I’m really sorry for being late. Rest assured, I will handle that bastard Cai Chongshen efficiently! Guarantee to make you satisfied."

Ren Feifan didn’t care in the least about Cai Chongshen’s fate, the other party was just a clown after all. Could he really create any major troubles?

His most pressing concern at the moment was how to increase the output of the prescription and ensure there was enough raw material.

He wasn’t worried about the other raw materials. Only the Immortal Rhyme troubled him.

Seeing that Ren Feifan remained silent, Old Huang quickly assumed he was still upset. He quickly huffed and said, "Master Ren, let me call some folks right now to handle this. Give me just a couple of hours, and I will personally bring you the culprit!"

Ren Feifan shook his head, and said, "No need, I won’t concern myself with the matter of those two anymore. I have something I want to ask you about right now."

"What is it?" Old Huang asked, releasing a long sigh of relief upon hearing that Ren Feifan was no longer vindictive.

"Do you know about the Immortal Rhyme?"

"Oh, you’re referring to the Soul Resurrection Grass? I know a bit about it. It’s a good item, but the amount available in the market is very limited. Immortal Rhyme thrives in warm, humid environments with semi-shaded conditions, and people usually find it deep in the mountains and old forests.

It has extremely strict requirements for soil fertility. It generally grows on the loose and thick bark or tree trunks. Some also grow in crevices in rocks. I know of two places where this may be in abundance, one is Mount Changbai, and the other is Hui’an Province."

To hear Huang speak so explicitly, joy sprang up within Ren Feifan.

Ren Feifan finally understood why Old Huang was the President of the Jiangnan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, and the Dean of Jiangnan Provincial Chinese Medicine Hospital. Instead of having a bit of skill, his understanding was deeply insightful.

But why was it Mount Changbai again?

Could it be that Mount Changbai was laden with treasure? It seemed he needed to make plans to visit Mount Changbai.

At the moment, Old Huang was trying to guess the thoughts of Ren Feifan.

Why was Master Ren always asking for some strange and precious items?

First, it was the Frost Spirit Stone from Mount Changbai, and now it was the Immortal Rhyme.

Either of these items is not something an ordinary person can gain possession of. Could it be that Master Ren was trying to concoct some special medicine?

That is indeed possible.

"Old Huang, are you able to help me get a few plants of Immortal Rhyme? I can offer an equivalent exchange. But if you still want me to help the Chen Family with their treatment, please forget I ever asked this question."

As Ren Feifan spoke, his voice turned colder and colder.

Ren Feifan didn’t have any connections to acquire Immortal Rhyme, so asking Old Huang was the best option.

Old Huang frowned at his words. Although disappointed, the thought of the gifts Ren Feifan gave him made him shiver - it was a real treasure! After half a day of study, he had come to the conclusion: he not just made a bargain, but a profitable one!

Just the thought of that treasure made Old Huang feel short of breath. He adjusted his breath and then said, "I was wondering whether Master Ren is in a hurry? I have some old friends who are in the business of rare medicinal herbs. I can help you get in touch with them."

Elated, Ren Feifan quickly said, "There’s no urgency at the moment. As long as Old Huang can find a way to get me a few of them, that would be great. I appreciate it, Old Huang. There will be a generous reward once we succeed!"

Old Huang waved his hands modestly, and said, "Master Ren, such words are not needed. No matter what commands you have, I will do my best to comply. In the Medical Path, you are my teacher."

"Very well, I have another question for you," Ren Feifan said straightforwardly.

The next second, Old Huang felt his mouth twitching.

His mouth deserved some beating, as all the things Master Ren needed were rare items.

If another valuable spirit herb was to be mentioned then, he would definitely not dare to agree.

However, when he heard Ren Feifan’s next question, Old Huang sighed in relief and let go of the heavy stone in his heart.

Ren Feifan asked, "Do you know if there are strict requirements to make medicine in Huaxia?"

Old Huang’s pupils contracted. Considering all the signs from Ren Feifan, it seemed that he was planning to enter the pharmaceutical industry?

The pharmaceutical industry is deep water. Without financial and actual strength, one absolutely couldn’t pass the requirements.

"Master Ren, please think twice before proceeding. The pharmaceutical industry is extremely expensive! Although approval is not too much of a hassle, many problems can occur during the development and production process. If one part has a problem, the entire chain will be affected!"

"At the most basic level, you need to have a production license, business license, drug GMP certificate, drug approval number, environmental protection certificate, trademark, packaging records, price approval, national tax registration, local tax registration, etc. These are somewhat similar to running a business, most of them can be done by specialized people."

"After these are completed, you need to invest in pharmaceutical research and development. The developed drugs must be registered with the National Drug Administration and given a pharmaceutical production certificate before they can produce drugs. Then it’s about setting up a factory production line, and finally, propagation, packaging, and selling. Every link is very important. If one link has a problem, your entire pharmaceutical venture will fail."

Ren Feifan nodded his understanding. As for the most difficult part, research and development, Ren Feifan didn’t have any issues. He had a heaven-defying medical inheritance. If he couldn’t even do the research and development, it would be a total disgrace.

It seemed that the most important thing now was to find someone to handle all these tasks. Ren Feifan didn’t know anything about this and obviously wouldn’t be able to do everything himself, so he had to find the right person for it.

The first person who came to mind was Xu Shihan. Xu Shihan, with her business acumen, ran more than a dozen large and small companies, and must definitely understand this area.

However, Xu Shihan had stated several times that she wouldn’t get involved in the company affairs anymore and focus solely on her studies. If he asked her to step forward at this time, she would definitely refuse.

Aside from Xu Shihan, there was simply no other suitable candidate around Ren Feifan.

"Nevermind, I’ll go home and ask my wife later, if it really isn’t possible, let her recommend a couple of talented people!"
