Ma Zheng also rushed over quickly and grabbed Gu Chan's arm, "Boss, let's run!"

"Why are you running? Are you sick?" Gu Chan scolded angrily.

"No! Look, her eyes are wide open and she's not moving." Ma Zheng was extremely anxious.

The point is that the old woman is so scary right now!

She just slumped in the chair, her eyes wide open, not moving at all.

If you know her, you would think she had just taken medicine. If you don’t know her, you would think she died due to burping!

Gu Chan clenched his fists tightly, but remained calm.

"call……"

At this moment, the old woman suddenly opened her mouth and exhaled a long breath of foul air. Then she immediately came back to her senses, sat up straight, wiped the sweat off her face with her hands, and sighed with relief, "Ah! It feels so good to sweat like this! I feel so comfortable all over my body, and I feel so much lighter!"

"Oh, grandma, you scared us to death just now." Gu Chan patted her chest and also let out a long sigh of relief.

The old lady laughed, "I really couldn't stand it just now, but I'll be fine after I calm down. I think! For someone as old as me, I can only eat half a bag at a time, not a whole bag."

"Yes! You're right. This medicine is too strong. The dosage should be controlled according to age. For example, for the elderly and children, half a bag is enough at a time, while young and middle-aged people can take a whole bag at a time." Gu Chan nodded, agreeing with the old lady's point of view.

The anxiety that had been hanging in Zhou Dachuan's chest finally settled down at this moment.

When he discovered that the new medicine developed by Gu Chan was more effective than ordinary cold medicines, a smile instantly appeared on his face, as if he had seen huge amounts of money being delivered to his door.

Gu Chan ignored him and politely said to the old woman, "Grandma, you should go back and rest first! In the next two or three days, you must be careful not to catch a cold again. Otherwise, if the disease recurs after you have just recovered, you will be the one to suffer."

"Got it, little brother, don't worry. I will definitely help your Kaiyuan Pharmacy promote this new drug when I return. By the way, what is the name of this new drug?"

"It's called Sanjiu Cold Remedy." Gu Chan replied with a smile.

The old woman recited it several times, and after making sure she had remembered it, she stood up and said goodbye to Gu Chan, leaving in great spirits without even the help of a cane.

Zhou Dachuan quickly grabbed Gu Chan and said, "It's settled then. From now on, you will be the one to develop this new medicine, and I will sell it. We'll share the profits."

"What about Sanjiu Weitai?"

"Yes, those are two kinds of medicines. I will give you half of the profits. As for how you want to give it to others, that's your business. I don't care." In order to win over Gu Chan, Zhou Dachuan did not hesitate to give you half of the profits.

Gu Chan immediately looked up to him.

It is obvious that Zhou Dachuan is a man with a vision. He does not care about the small profit in front of him, but looks to the future.

There is no doubt that as long as they cooperate, Gu Chan can continue to help him develop new drugs in the future, which will make more money, so he doesn't care about the 50% profit from these two simple drugs at all.

After understanding this, Gu Chan didn't waste any words and agreed directly, "Okay, deal."

"That's settled then. Let's not talk about this for now and talk about something else."

"Anything else?" Gu Chan asked.

Zhou Dachuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Don't forget, tomorrow is the three-day deadline. You have to go and deliver the second spiritual herb to the county magistrate. This is a big deal. Could it be that you forgot?"

"I haven't forgotten. I'm also troubled by this matter. Do you know where I can find the spiritual herbs?" Gu Chan stroked her forehead with her hand, looking embarrassed.

Anyway, she didn't want to go to the forest again. Even if she could find spiritual herbs there, she couldn't defeat those spiritual beasts. It would be better for her to think of ways to deal with humans.

People are always easier to deal with than spiritual beasts!

Zhou Dachuan shook his head. "There are only a few spiritual herbs in the whole Wuheng County. Where else can you find others? You'd better think of a way quickly. Otherwise, you will be in trouble if you can't deliver the spiritual herbs tomorrow."

"Hmph! There's no point in keeping doing this. I still have to find a way to resolve this matter. Otherwise, if I keep letting the county magistrate take advantage of me, I'll be fleeced one day." Gu Chan's face darkened, and she made up her mind to fight the county magistrate.

Zhou Dachuan quickly reached out and covered her mouth with his hand. "Don't say that. The county magistrate is the highest official here. You can't offend him, or you will definitely not end well."

"You are afraid of him, but I am not. Forget it. I will go back and think of a solution and talk about it tomorrow." Gu Chan waved Zhou Dachuan's hand away and replied unhappily.

Zhou Dachuan smiled helplessly and began to worry about her again.

Gu Chan, however, left with Ma Zheng with a calm expression.

After coming out of Kaiyuan Medicine Shop, the two of them strolled around the market for a while, bought a lot of food and daily necessities, and then returned to Jiuyang Village together.

On the way back, Gu Chan kept frowning and remained silent.

Ma Zheng knew that she was having trouble with the spiritual herbs at the moment, so he didn't dare nag her. He could only quietly accompany her to the village.

It was not until dusk in the afternoon that the two returned to Jiuyang Village.

When they stopped at the door of Gu Chan's house, Ma Zheng said seriously, "Don't worry, Boss. I will be with you no matter what."

"If I fail to deliver the spiritual herbs tomorrow and the county magistrate kills me, will you accompany me?" Gu Chan tested him intentionally.

"I'll accompany you if you want. Life is so hard anyway, I might as well die." Ma Zheng patted his chest to show his loyalty.

Gu Chan immediately scolded him, "I will not allow you to say such things again, and I will not allow you to despise your own life again. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your grandmother. If you die, what will happen to her?"

"This……"

"Okay, go back and help your grandma with her work! Come see me tomorrow at noon." Gu Chan waved her hand and ordered.

Ma Zheng nodded obediently and left.

After he left, Gu Chan carried the things she bought into the yard.

Zhang Wanshan had been sitting in the yard waiting for her. When he saw her finally come back, he immediately put the food on the table and said, "You must be starving! Come and eat."

"Grandpa, I've eaten in the county. These are the new clothes I bought for you, as well as some snacks like biscuits." Gu Chan said as she handed the things in her hand to Zhang Wanshan.

Zhang Wanshan took these gifts and was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

Fighting back tears, he said lovingly, "Don't buy anything for grandpa in the future. I don't lack anything. Just buy more for yourself. As long as you eat well and dress well, grandpa will be happy."

"What are you talking about, Grandpa? Of course you have to eat well and dress well!" Gu Chan said softly with a smile.

Zhang Wanshan nodded quietly, with the word "happiness" written all over his old face.

After that, the grandfather and grandson didn't say anything more, but sat together to eat dinner. The scene was warm.
