After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person Chapter 286 Heading South to Sell Medicine

After successfully taking over all the factories, Chen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He really hadn't anticipated that Wu Zhonghe would leave such a ss for him.

One of the food factories hadn't paid wages for an entire half year.

It was a wonder how the workers there had managed to hold on.

Though these factories had been completely taken over, their layout was too scattered, and it was sowhat troubleso to want to operate them systemically.

Chen Yu frowned, realizing that if he truly wanted to produce custom drugs on a large scale, he would probably have to take over other factories as well, forming a specialized pharmaceutical industrial park.

This was indeed a huge project. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have to buy up the surrounding factories one by one.

However, for the ti being, the most pressing matter was to find the original source of the dicinal materials.

"Old Chen, all the workers have been pacified, but having so many people here is a huge expense for food and lodging. Do you think we should figure out a way to weed so of them out?"

Hou Jianchang's face showed difficulty, as an experienced factory manager, he understood the operation's key.

Moreover, they had unconditionally kept all the workers and even paid their back wages, fulfilling a moral obligation.

But with so many workers, it was inevitable that so were just skiving off, and there was simply no need to keep people like that around.

Chen Yu stroked his chin and pondered.

"For now, let's not dismiss anyone. We've just taken over these factories, and what's most important is the workers' morale. If we cause any disturbances, the consequences would be unthinkable."

Hou Jianchang heaved a helpless sigh. This was indeed a troubling matter.

"Then when do we arrange for them to start working? We can't just let this big crowd sit idle."

Chen Yu patted Hou Jianchang's shoulder, "Old Hou, you keep an eye on these people for for now, and make sure nothing goes wrong. I need to go out and find the source of the dicinal materials during this ti!"

"Don't worry, I'll arrange everything here."

Hou Jianchang replied and imdiately made a phone call.

During this ti, he had already cultivated a group of practical workers in the factory, and these individuals could serve as factory managers anywhere.

Temporarily putting them in charge of so of the workers was an easy task.

After settling the matters in Suzhou City, Chen Yu went directly to Nanyun.

It could be said to be the center of dicinal materials in the entire East, with more than seventy percent of the world's dicinal materials originating from there.

Chen Yu traveled without any rest, almost rushing nonstop to Nanyun.

But as soon as he left the airport, he was astounded by everything he saw.

The bustling airport periter was filled with many vendors, each stall laden with various dicinal materials.

The rich scent of herbs perated outside the airport, and just a whiff was enough to feel refreshing and clear-headed.

Just as Chen Yu was about to approach and inquire about the prices of the herbs, he suddenly stopped in his tracks as he detected an odd scent among them.

Not far away, a small stall displayed a large number of Paris polyphylla, a common dicinal herb in Nanyun.

Most Paris polyphylla had seven leaves and one flower, but the ones in front of him had nine leaves and two flowers.

This item, at a glance, was obviously mutated, and, moreover, the flowers of these Paris polyphylla were a vivid red.

Chen Yu couldn't help but frown. If it were soone else, they probably would have treasured it and bought it on the spot.

"Brother, looking at herbs? This is the most precious nine-leaf Paris polyphylla, our local specialty. If you take it to another place, its value could increase a hundredfold."

The small vendor called out, then looked at Chen Yu with a hopeful gaze.

If it were anyone else, they likely would have made the purchase, but that just wasn't possible with Chen Yu.

Not to ntion that he could see at a glance whether this Paris polyphylla was real or fake, the system had already clearly analyzed the components of this thing and projected them in his mind.

Chen Yu didn't say much, just glanced away and continued on his way, but unexpectedly, just as he had gone a few steps, those vendors that were selling herbs suddenly stopped him.

"Kid, you're from out of town, aren't you? Don't you know the rules here? If you don't buy so herbs after getting off the plane, that's showing us disrespect."

Chen Yu wanted to laugh imdiately; it seed these guys were the local bullies.

No wonder so many people headed straight here to buy herbs the mont they got off the plane, and many of them appeared quite reluctant.

Chen Yu didn't want to make a big deal out of it with these guys. After all, he was here to trade herbs and didn't need to get involved with them.

Without saying much more, he walked over to a small stall, threw down ten thousand yuan, casually picked up a herb, and then turned around to leave.

This ti, those vendors didn't stop him but rely took the money and remarked that he was understanding.

Nanyun was situated at the junction of subtropical and tropical zones, where natural resources were abundant. Aside from the copious amount of herbs, there were nurous fruits and various subtropical cash crops.

Chen Yu admired the scenery along the way as he quickly made his way toward the herb market.

Before long, he arrived at a rather bustling small town.

The town, backed by a large mountain, had generations of residents who lived by gathering herbs and hunting.

In modern society, with the enactnt of hunting bans, the main livelihood of the locals had shifted to growing and trading dicinal herbs.

At the foot of the mountain lay a large trading market, where a wide variety of herbs were available. It was the first stop for every rchant who dealt in herbs.

Chen Yu also eagerly joined the crowd and entered.

But as he stepped through the gate, he froze in place.

This was indeed a large herb market with a complete range of dicinal plants, but the air was mixed with many strange scents, just like the odors at the airport entrance.

It seed not all the herbs here were authentic.

Chen Yu sighed in resignation, and just as he was about to leave, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"Young man, you seem to know your stuff, huh? Running around here to exchange herbs. Co on, my family still has lots of valuable herbs. I'll give you a good deal."

Chen Yu turned around and saw that the speaker was the sa person who had previously forced him to buy Paris polyphylla at the train station.

The guy was quick; he had arrived here before Chen Yu.

However, Chen Yu had practically been sightseeing along the way, so naturally, his pace was slower.

"I wouldn't dare buy your herbs. There are many I haven't even seen before, and I don't even know their effects. If I bought the wrong ones, that could spell serious trouble,"

Chen Yu responded dismissively and prepared to leave.
