LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 384: Bring More People
Two people had never been so excited in all these years.
Near dusk, Lin Yi made a phone call to Hei Lang.
"Hello, how's the preparation on your side?"
"Brother, rest assured, everything is already prepared, and there are also some equipments that should arrive tomorrow morning. Probably before tomorrow noon, all things should be complete. It's just up to you to decide when you're ready to set off."
"How many people are you planning to bring this time into the mountains?"
"How many people? I haven't planned to bring anyone along, Brother. Aren't they just a few fierce beasts? With my current ability, there should be no problem. I alone should be enough to protect you."
"That won't do. It won't just be me; Ling'er will be there as well. Moreover, the two of us going in wouldn't make any sense. We wouldn't be able to recognize those precious medicinal herbs."
"Oh right, Ling'er will be there too, no worries. I'll find another brother who's good with his hands, and then let him tag along. Wouldn't that be more secure?"
"I think one person is too few. If it won't work, could you arrange for some more brothers?"
"Arrange for more? But, but I haven't prepared that much stuff."
"If you haven't prepared, then go prepare again. At the very least, you must bring five people, plus you that makes six."
"Alright, there definitely won't be any issue with manpower."
"Remember, you must pick some with good skills, understand?"
"Alright, don't worry. By the way, Brother, when are you planning to set off?"
"That, I haven't decided the specifics yet. Be ready at any time. I will contact you before we set off."
"Okay, let's leave it at that."
After that, the call was disconnected.
Lin Yi looked up at the wall clock; it was already 7:00 PM.
He was unclear about how things were being handled at the company, and he also hadn't been in contact with Ling'er.
Suddenly, Lin Yi thought of Dean Lin.
After all, Dean Lin had shown him a human body meridian chart, but he himself couldn't understand it. He guessed that Ling'er might understand some of it.
Thereupon, Lin Yi took out his phone and dialed Ling'er's mobile number.
"Ling'er, where are you now?"
"Oh, I've just come out from the company. I've settled all the company matters and finished all the procedures. From now on, we have nothing to do with that place."
"Great, are you busy with anything right now?"
"Me? I'm not busy with anything. What's wrong, President Lin?"
"Come over to my place. There's something I want to talk to you about."
"Oh, okay, I understand. I'll head over now. By the way, have you eaten, President Lin?"
"Not yet. When you're on your way, could you pick up something? We can eat a little at my place and chat while we eat."
"Alright, I got it. By the way, how about your wife and child? Are they at home? If they are, I'll buy more to take over."
"No, my wife is at school, and she probably won't come back tonight. The child is still over at my parents'."
"Okay, got it."
After that, Ling'er hung up the phone.
About 20 minutes later, Ling'er arrived.
She had simply bought some takeout, and then the two of them sat at the dining table and began to eat.
"When you finished with the company this afternoon, did everything go smoothly? And the compensation money, has it all been transferred?"
"Don't worry, I've arranged everything. And the staff members below are basically content; they are quite satisfied with the compensation amount."
"Good, I've done my best. I never thought the company would encounter such a big issue so suddenly, all of it beyond my expectation."
Even now, mentioning it, Lin Yi still felt a sense of regret, but there was nothing he could do. After all, what had happened had happened, and what could he do about it now?
"President Lin."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi suddenly gestured with his hand.
Now, he wasn't running any company, and he always felt that the title was like an insult to himself.
"Stop, I'm telling you, the company is gone. Don't call me that anymore. I'm not a president any longer."
"Then, what should I...?"
"How about this, just call me Brother Lin. That sounds more cordial."
"Alright, Brother Lin. What I mean is, since it's all happened, don't dwell on it anymore. Look forward, and besides, don't you have a new goal for development now?"
"Right, there is indeed a new goal. This afternoon, I contacted the pharmaceutical factory. Look at me, getting used to old habits. It's not a pharmaceutical factory anymore; it should be called a toy factory."
"Oh? How are things going over there now?"
"They have started organizing. I estimate that in about three or four days, things should proceed as planned. Also, Manager Liu has already started to explore the market."
"That's good. Then everything from now on should go more smoothly, right? So, I think you don't need to worry so much."
"By the way, Ling'er, there's something I've never asked you. Are you familiar with the human body meridian chart?"
"The human body meridian chart? Of course, I'm very familiar with it. It was part of my basic skills course. Also, my master started me off with the human body meridian chart."
"Then, is there any essential connection between the human body meridian chart and the human skeletal system?"
"Of course, there is. Moreover, they complement each other. Each point is interconnected. What's the matter, Brother Lin, do you want to learn it?"
"Not to learn it. This afternoon, darn, I can't recall all of a sudden. Let me find it for you."
While speaking, Lin Yi took his laptop and began to search for the human body meridian chart.
However, after searching through all the charts he could find, he still couldn't locate the one he'd seen at Dean Lin's that afternoon.
"Brother Lin, what exactly are you looking for?"
Ling'er, who had waited for quite some time and had seemingly not seen the result she'd anticipated, asked anxiously.
"I, I can't quite put my finger on it, but I've flipped through all the human body meridian charts here, and none of them match the chart I saw. That one was completely hand-drawn."
