CHAPTER 1131: CHAPTER 1127: FERTILIZING

Chen Yang smiled bitterly inside, but outwardly could only smile and nod in agreement, unable to say anything else.

"Hmm... alright then, I’ll head back alone. You all take care, if you notice anything unusual, call me anytime," Chen Yang said with a bitter smile.

"Okay, don’t worry, everything’s very safe here. Gu Xuanyu wouldn’t dare act recklessly," Wu Kexin nodded seriously.

Seeing this, Chen Yang couldn’t say much more, so after a few simple words, he left the office and returned to the medical center alone.

On his way back, Chen Yang paid more attention to the happenings at the Gu Family building.

He noticed that tonight the Gu Family building was exceptionally bright, with many rooms lit.

If this had happened around seven or eight in the evening, Chen Yang naturally wouldn’t think much of it.

But now it was already eleven o’clock at night, almost midnight.

So many lights were still on, making Chen Yang suspect something was amiss.

"Should I ask Gao Ya about it?"

Chen Yang thought for a moment but ultimately decided not to ask Gao Ya.

Because he knew that if it was related to him, Gao Ya would definitely inform him immediately. Since he hadn’t received any news, it indicated it probably had nothing to do with him.

Since it was unrelated, Chen Yang wasn’t inclined to investigate. They could do whatever they pleased.

Chen Yang withdrew his gaze, turned, and walked back inside, directly washed up, and went to sleep.

That night, Chen Yang had anticipated some unrest.

But unexpectedly, nothing happened at all.

Chen Yang had a restful sleep, waking up only when the day was bright, around eight o’clock.

Upon waking, he didn’t delay, going straight to wash up, and then to the kitchen to prepare himself some breakfast.

After eating, Chen Yang figured that Dai Annie might linger a while longer at Wu Kexin’s village office, so he decided to seize this leisure time to go out for a walk.

Morning air is the best, beneficial for health, and it also revitalizes one’s spirit.

Chen Yang headed out with Wangcai, stopping first at the pharmaceutical factory.

Noticing it was only half-past eight, he found that many workers had already started their shifts at the factory.

Meanwhile, the security team organized by Hei Pi was fully equipped, gathered at the factory gate.

Seeing the orderly team, Chen Yang felt good.

With these professional mountain rangers, the safety of the herbal picking workers was surely guaranteed!

"Yang Zi, why are you suddenly here?"

Chen Yang observed for a while from afar until Hei Pi noticed him. He immediately smiled and greeted him.

Responding to the call, Chen Yang walked over.

"Woke up early with nothing to do, just decided to go for a walk." Chen Yang replied casually, and then began chatting: "Hei Pi, how’s it been lately? Good harvests in the mountains?"

Hei Pi beamed: "Quite a lot, recently I’ve been sweeping clean the wolves around here! Now when we encounter wolves, it’s hard for us to shoot. We have to drive them away, afraid they’ll become extinct."

"Haha, restraint is necessary. Maintaining ecological balance is important," Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Mm-hmm, though I haven’t studied much, I understand this. Rest assured, I’ve issued instructions – unless absolutely necessary, we avoid killing, just drive them away." Hei Pi said.

Hearing this, Chen Yang felt relieved.

"Alright, I won’t disturb you at work, so carry on. If you need anything or have advice, you can always come to me," Chen Yang smiled, patting Hei Pi on the shoulder.

Hei Pi chuckled, acknowledged, and then turned around, carrying his hunting gun, leading the team into the mountains.

As the security squad, they needed to clear the way in the mountains in advance to perfectly ensure the safety of the herbal picking workers.

Watching Hei Pi and his group enter the mountains, Chen Yang also went into the factory premises for a stroll.

Although he’s the factory director, truth be told, most of the operations and pharmaceutical activities are handled by the Liu Family.

Nonetheless, these people were quite tactful, not exceeding their bounds with Chen Yang, treating him as a nominal director.

Whenever they saw Chen Yang, they treated him with respect, and seriously considered suggestions he made.

If feasible, they acted on his recommendations immediately.

If any issue arose, they communicated well with Chen Yang.

This manner of interaction made Chen Yang feel quite favorable toward the Liu Family.

Though he hadn’t formally dealt with the Liu Family members, insights about them could be gleaned from those dispatched by their family.

With personnel accompanying his tour around the plant, Chen Yang was consistently informed.

The concerns he expressed, line production data they candidly reported.

Recently, Chen Yang hadn’t focused much on the pharmaceutical factory, but after some inquiries, he quickly grasped the factory’s situation.

After a complete understanding, by nine o’clock, the factory workers had all commenced their shifts.

Seeing this, Chen Yang didn’t linger much, uttered some brief remarks, and left.

Just as Chen Yang stepped out of the factory premises, he received a call from Dai Annie.

Dai Annie had returned from the village office, not finding Chen Yang at the medical center. So she called asking for his whereabouts.

Chen Yang informed her of his location, and within three minutes, he saw Dai Annie approaching from afar.

"Chen Yang, why are you here so early, not seeing the orchard?" Dai Annie asked as she drew near.

Hearing this, Chen Yang laughed immediately.

"Wasn’t I waiting for you? I know you well, little foodie! Surely you’re thinking of eating oranges again."

Seeing her intention exposed, Dai Annie also laughed unreservedly.

Chen Yang affectionately tousled her hair, saying, "Let’s head back first; I’ll prepare some more fertilizer so the fruit trees can grow even faster."

"Alright."

Dai Annie nodded promptly, accompanying Chen Yang as they returned from the pharmaceutical factory to the medical center.

Back at the medical center, Chen Yang continued his usual routine, having Dai Annie fetch water while he prepared the fertilizer in the storage room.

These herbal fertilizer formulas, all originating from the Medicine King Sutra, had Chen Yang’s unwavering trust, knowing he’d definitely implement them without hesitation.

However, while trust was there, understanding the formulas was still limited for Chen Yang.

The Medicine King Sutra didn’t specify the effective timeframe; Chen Yang could only rely on his instincts.

But with no prior use, Chen Yang couldn’t gauge intuitively, leaving him to observe as he applied them.

In the storage room, after matching the required herbs together, Chen Yang proceeded to the backyard.

In the backyard, Dai Annie had already filled six buckets with water.

Executing as before, Chen Yang divided the herbs into six portions, placing them in each bucket, then started stirring.

He continued stirring until the water changed color, then stopped.

Repeatedly doing this six times, ensured all buckets had changed color, and Chen Yang took the buckets and led Dai Annie to the orchard.
