She sat quietly beside Si Lisao, listening as her parents and Si Lisao’s parents discussed the engagent date and specific details.
The engagent date was set for the third weekend two months later, with the engagent banquet to be held in Atlantis. The wedding was scheduled for the following year, to be held on Mu Continent.
Ye Xinguang arranged a state banquet, where everyone had lunch in the banquet hall. In the afternoon, Ye Xinguang, acting as host, invited Si Lisao’s parents to tour the Imperial Capital of Atlantis. He had planned several attractions, and everyone had a very enjoyable ti. In the evening, another dinner was arranged.
After the evening banquet, Si Lisao’s entourage left Atlantis to return to Mu Continent. Except for Si Lisao, who did not leave; he openly followed Ye Siyuan to the Yecheng Palace. As the fiancé-to-be, Si Lisao was given a guest room. He also wanted to use this opportunity to make a good impression on his future in-laws.
So, after sleeping in the palace for one night, Si Lisao asked Ye Siyuan the next day to take him to et her paternal and maternal grandparents. Si Lisao bought many health supplents suitable for the elderly and accompanied Ye Siyuan to et the family. He even seized an opportunity to play chess with Grandfather Ye, which took up the entire morning.
He lost with great skill. In the beginning, he didn’t give an inch, forcing Grandfather Ye to remain intensely focused and not dare to slack off in the slightest. Then, at the critical mont, he lost in a way that seed perfectly plausible, as if he were genuinely outmatched. This left Grandfather Ye invigorated and full of praise for Si Lisao, calling him a rare talent. Ye Siyuan, sitting nearby, found it very interesting to watch.
Ye Shen also ca over to watch for a while before leaving. Afterward, he called Mo Yinhe and said, "He’s too scheming! He had Grandfather smiling from ear to ear!"
Mo Yinhe replied, "What are you angry about? No matter how calculating he is, he has to behave himself in our family until he marries Siyuan, pleasing everyone, young and old. You, on the other hand, need to work harder, or Uncle will call off the engagent and refuse to let Tangtang marry you!"
Ye Shen imdiately bristled. "When have I not worked hard? Which task you entrusted to haven’t I accomplished? Big Brother, you’re wronging !"
So, Mo Yinhe assigned Ye Shen another task to prevent him from being too idle and finding fault with everyone and everything all day.
Ye Shen said, "Why is it that Tangtang and I were engaged first, yet our wedding is still so far off, while my second sister isn’t even engaged yet, but her wedding date is already set? Big Brother, could you please urge Father on my behalf? I also want to marry Tangtang and bring her ho soon."
Song Tangtang had already returned to S Country, leaving Ye Shen to endure the hardships of a long-distance relationship.
Mo Yinhe said, "Because you’re still young, Uncle wants to evaluate you for three years. After three years, depending on your capabilities, he will decide whether to let you have the wedding. Young man, if you want to win the fair lady’s hand, work hard!"
Alarm bells rang in Ye Shen’s head, and he genuinely started working hard. How could he have any inclination to give Si Lisao a hard ti?
Mo Yinhe was also busy. Just yesterday, his wife, Si Mingjing, had promised the public on Bokewei that he would procure her newly developed traditional Chinese dicine and distribute several boxes to each citizen. This was a huge expense, and Mo Yinhe needed to hold a eting to discuss it. After a half-hour eting, Mo Yinhe decided to include the traditional Chinese dicine developed by Si Mingjing in the governnt procurent list.
Although Atlantis had no epidemic, Mo Yinhe had witnessed the horrors of one and did not wish for it to spread in his own country. So senior officials argued it was unnecessary and a waste of finances, berating Mo Yinhe for a full ten minutes. Mo Yinhe displayed the pandemic photos and videos he had taken in Shendu at the eting. The scenes were so shocking that everyone eventually fell silent.
Ye Junqing’s pharmaceutical factory, even with overti, couldn’t possibly produce enough traditional dicine to prevent the S-virus in a short ti. So, Si Mingjing also held a eting with Lun Bobing. In the end, they decided to share the formula with several large pharmaceutical factories on Mu Continent and in Atlantis to distribute the production burden. She personally went to inspect the pharmaceutical factories.
Although Ye Junqing’s pharmaceutical factory was large, it could no longer et Si Mingjing’s production requirents; Si Mingjing felt it wasn’t big enough. Traditional dicines for treating cancer and type 1 diabetes, along with the new one for preventing the S-virus, all required mass production. Ye Junqing’s pharmaceutical factory had to expand by establishing several more branches; otherwise, it couldn’t et the demand.
After returning ho, Si Mingjing went to Ye Junqing’s study. Ye Junqing was attending to matters in his study. Hearing that she had co specifically to see him, he gestured for her to sit down. "Mingjing, what’s the matter?"
After Si Mingjing sat down, she stated her intentions, "Dad, I’m thinking of establishing several more branches."
Ye Junqing pulled out several pharmaceutical factory profiles from his desk drawer and laid them on the table. "Take a look."
Si Mingjing was sowhat surprised. She picked up the pharmaceutical factory profiles, read them carefully, and said with excitent, "Dad, have you acquired all these pharmaceutical factories? From the profiles, these factories are quite large and rank among the top in terms of pharmaceutical capabilities. Were you being prescient?"
Ye Junqing smiled, took a sip from his teacup, and said, "That’s called planning ahead. It’s because I have such an impressive daughter-in-law."
Ye Junqing was unabashed in his pride. So ti ago, he had realized that his daughter-in-law was very capable, and the current pharmaceutical factory might struggle to et her needs. Therefore, Ye Junqing had instructed his people to find reputable pharmaceutical factories. After finalizing a few, he acquired them all. The power of capital was undeniable; those pharmaceutical factories couldn’t resist.
These pharmaceutical factories were located in various places: so in A Country, so in the Undersea World of Atlantis, and two on Mu Continent. Ye Junqing’s financial reach had long infiltrated both the terrestrial and undersea worlds; there was nothing he set his sights on that he couldn’t obtain.
Ye Junqing wanted to be a strong pillar of support for his daughter-in-law. "Mingjing, don’t worry about the pharmaceutical factories not eting demand. Just go ahead and do what is beneficial for the people. The only contribution I can make to dicine is to acquire more pharmaceutical factories. Your capabilities, however, can take you much further in the field. Feel free to pursue your goals."
Si Mingjing was deeply moved. "Thank you, Dad." This instantly alleviated all her worries.
Ye Junqing laughed heartily. "Thank for what? You’ve already made incredibly wealthy."
The pharmaceutical factories belonged to Ye Junqing, and he earned a commission for every box of dicine Si Mingjing sold. His original intention in establishing the pharmaceutical factory was to develop a dicine for the Vampire Clan that would eliminate their need to drink blood. In truth, it wasn’t intended to be profitable. However, in the past few months, Mingjing had developed several traditional dicines that consistently sold out worldwide. Now, they were included in the governnt procurent lists of both Mu Continent and Atlantis. The profits generated were unimaginably vast, making others green with envy. His daughter-in-law was truly a genius at making money.
