The second matter discussed was the specific division of labor and cooperation.
Firstly, Yifan Beauty’s production facility would be relocated to a prime location, temporarily set up on a piece of property owned by Lu Chennong in the southern suburbs. The geographic location was good and most of the basic infrastructure was in place.
Secondly, Lin Yaoshi was responsible for contacting suppliers for raw materials, ensuring the quality and quantity of the herbs as well as the price fluctuation range. If possible, he also needed to network with more herb merchants.
Cui Fului then dispatched personnel to handle the loading and unloading of materials, in-factory transportation, and the production, processing, and packaging of products.
The Lu family continued to manage operations and promotions as well as handle public relations, while Night Castle and Qingyun Sect took charge of security and distribution. Xinghai Media Company was responsible for producing advertisements, endorsement deals, and early-stage publicity.
This discussion alone lasted nearly an hour, and it was only after concluding that everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to drink with smiles on their faces.
Xu Fan also relaxed, happy that the complete production chain was established and he could now focus on his economical apprentice.
“Dongzi, come here for a second,” Xu Fan called out to Cui Dong with a wave of his hand.
“Master, did you need me for something?”
Cui Dong quickly got up and ran over, shamelessly pleading with a grin, “Master, look at this face of your disciple, it’s too horrendous to bear. How about letting me use that super-strength version of the Miraculous Skin Cream?”
Xu Fan glanced at him, tapped his head lightly three times, then waved him away.
Cui Dong was startled. That’s it? No explanation of what it was all about?
He instantly felt like a monk at a loss, his face full of confusion and bewilderment.
Did I say something wrong, or am I just too ugly that even though there was something he originally wanted to discuss, he now doesn’t want to say it anymore?
But being ugly isn’t my fault; I can only blame the manufacturer for not maintaining quality control. Besides, you have the skin cream, right? Just give it to me, and within minutes I’ll transform into a handsome young man.
“Master, I didn’t understand what you meant,” Cui Dong said, looking woeful and plaintive.
“I’ve given you a hint; it’s up to you to figure it out,” Xu Fan said, waving his hand impatiently to send him away.
“Big brother, you better catch on quickly,” Tongtong chimed in with a giggle and a wave of her hand.
Cui Dong shook his head speechlessly and returned to his seat, lost in deep thought.
What on earth did Xu Fan say to him?
He was so engrossed in thought that he didn’t even hear his own father speaking to him.
His heart sank with a thud, feeling as if he had fallen from a cliff into the sea, cold with fear, he couldn’t help but shiver.
Being struck by lightning? Household electricity at just 220V can kill a person. How terrifying must the countless volts of lightning from the sky be?
The more Cui Dong thought about it, the more scared he became, but as the moment approached, there was no use in running away.
He had to think differently, that if he could just get through this ordeal, everything would get better, and he would step onto the path to heaven; with this thought, his mindset became determined, and he was no longer as frightened.
Humph, I, Cui Dong, how brave and heroic I am, am I not? What is there to fear from a mere lightning strike!
Cui Fului had been keeping an eye on his son all along, and seeing him adjust and brighten up, he nodded in approval.
At that moment, Lu Chennong suddenly remembered something and chuckled to Xu Fan, “Elder Xu, that villa has been tidied up in the past two days, you can move in anytime, and as for the transfer contract and other formalities, everything’s ready, we can finalize the ownership transfer soon.”
“That’s great, Elder Lu, you’re so efficient. Let’s transfer the ownership tomorrow morning then, so I can start arranging things sooner,” Xu Fan smiled and nodded.
“Then it’s settled,” Lu Chennong said, glancing at Tongtong and Xu Yixue, a mysterious smile playing at the corner of his mouth.
“Daddy, are we really moving?” Tongtong asked in surprise, promptly seeking confirmation.
“Yes, indeed. I mentioned this to Tongtong before,” Xu Fan said with a laugh, playfully tapping the little guy’s nose.
“But then, I won’t be able to play with those buddies anymore,” Tongtong looked a bit downcast; she was quite fond of her playmates.
Seeing that Tongtong had made new friends and cared so much about them, Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning were taken aback, but also felt reassured; indeed, it was the right decision to return to their home country.
The environment for Tongtong’s growth was very important; as long as the little one was happy, it was worth it.
“Don’t worry, Tongtong, it’s not far. You can invite them to visit, and then they’ll see all your toys. Toys are more fun when shared, and they’ll surely envy Tongtong for having so many fun toys,” Xu Fan reassured her with a smile.
Suddenly, Tongtong’s eyes lit up. She had plenty of toys, and they were so much fun; she was more than willing to share them with her friends. Delightedly, she nodded and said, “Yes! Tongtong has been wanting to let them play with my toys.”
“That’s a deal, then. Daddy will cook himself, and you’ll all have your fill,” he promised.
“Mmm, Daddy’s cooking is delicious. They’ll surely enjoy it so much, they’ll come again after one visit,” Tongtong’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Zhang Lijuan had been watching Tongtong all through the meal, her eyes sometimes showing a hint of envy.
After so many years, she and Elder Lu had not had a child of their own. Each time she saw someone else’s children, her maternal instincts overflowed, especially with Tongtong, who was so pretty and adorable, a veritable little angel.
Lu Chennong noticed the change in Zhang Lijuan and silently took her hand, giving her a look of firm confidence.
After Xu Fan’s treatment, they both were now physically fit, and the Elixir they consumed could increase the chances of conception...
