Du Ruo couldn't wait to take Wen Xinya's hand and go to Grandpa Du's study to find him. Grandpa Du was holding a medical book and writing with a brush. Wen Xinya smiled and greeted him, "Grandpa Du."
"Sit down!" Du Shinan put down the brush in his hand and gently closed the medical book.
Du Ruo pulled Wen Xinya to sit on the sofa in the study. Wen Xinya looked at the set of small blue and white porcelain tea bowls on the coffee table and couldn't help but start to make tea.
Du Shinan watched her make tea and her movements were smooth and beautiful. It was obvious that she was putting her heart into it, but her tea-making skills seemed a little clumsy. However, it was still amazing that she could achieve such results in such a short period of time.
Soon, Wen Xinya made tea and poured a cup for Grandpa Du: "Grandpa Du, please have some tea."
Watching her brewing the tea, Du Shinan already knew the taste of the tea, but he still tasted it: "It tastes a little bitter, because the fire is not controlled well. The water is a little hard, and the water temperature is not controlled well. The tea soup is not bright enough, because the timing of adding tea leaves is not controlled well. The leaves are different in shape, because the time is not controlled well. But overall it is still good."
Wen Xinya listened attentively: "Thank you, Grandpa Du. I will pay attention to it next time."
Du Ruo drank the tea in the porcelain bowl in one gulp: "Tea, tea, isn't it just for quenching thirst? Why do you have to drink it in a fancy way? Aren't you tired?"
Du Shinan scolded this unintelligent granddaughter: "This is the best Biluochun, which was given to me by Old Man Mo. There is only this small jar, and you have ruined it like this."
Du Ruo stuck out her tongue and made a face at her grandfather.
Seeing Du Ruo's expression, Wen Xinya couldn't help but think of her grandfather who had made tea for her in her previous life. At that time, her thoughts were similar to Ruoruo's. Her grandfather scolded her for wasting good tea like a cow chewing on a peony. In fact, only people who understand tea can appreciate its personal pleasure.
Du Shinan didn't bother to pay attention to her. He looked at her and then at Wen Xinya. He was filled with envy and hatred towards Old Man Mo. "Did you memorize all the medical books I asked you to memorize before?"
Wen Xinya quickly said, "I have memorized all of them."
Du Shinan believed this, because he had long understood the child's photographic memory. As long as it was something the child wanted to learn, he believed that nothing would be difficult for her.
Du Shinan asked: "After you went to school, the time you spent studying music, chess, calligraphy and painting was shortened a lot. How are you doing recently?"
Wen Xinya replied, "Grandpa said it's OK!"
Du Shinan almost vomited blood. It's okay... He deliberately asked casually, and she actually answered that it was okay. You know, her arrogant grandfather called her every day to brag about how smart his granddaughter was. He would call him every day to tell him about her learning progress and show off that his mantle had a successor.
He couldn't help but look at his granddaughter Du Ruo who was standing next to Wen Xinya. She was not doing her job properly and actually liked Chinese medicine health preservation and beauty care. These were side branches in Chinese medicine, but the granddaughter still argued: "Health preservation is the ancestor of Chinese medicine. If you take good care of your body, you will cut off the root of all diseases!"
Du Ruo, who felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by her grandfather, hurried to sit next to Du Shinan and took Du Shinan's arm: "Grandpa, Xinya and I have something to tell you."
Du Shinan asked unhappily, "What's the matter?"
"Xinya plans to do business with me. I will provide the formula, and Xinya will be responsible for turning my formula into a top luxury brand. I don't need to be involved in store management, medicinal materials, and preparation. We will split the profits 50-50. Xinya said that we are still minors, and some legal procedures still require the consent of our guardians."
Du Shinan understood the key point from just one sentence. He looked at Wen Xinya in surprise. He didn't expect that she had such a business mind. Although many people have studied Chinese medicine cosmetics, only Ruoruo has a mature one. If these formulas can be turned into luxury brands, the profits will be considerable.
He couldn't help but look up at her. She was only fifteen years old this year! Why did he feel like he was facing an adult when he was with her, but there was no sense of disobedience, as if her maturity was natural.
Wen Xinya saw that Grandpa Du was very interested in her proposal: "Grandpa Du, I will sort out a plan for the specific matters when I go back. I will also consult a lawyer about the legal issues. I will convince you with my actions."
Du Shinan looked at the glittering light in the girl's eyes. He had misjudged her. Lao Mo's granddaughter was not only intelligent, but also courageous, visionary, intelligent, and resourceful. "I want to hear your true thoughts."
In fact, he did not object to his granddaughter's involvement in the business field, but Wen Xinya was only fifteen years old, still too young. Her age left an intuitive impression on him. He felt that although they had ideas, they were not mature and the feasibility was unknown.
Wen Xinya took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa Du, the luxury brand of traditional Chinese medicine skin care is just my first step. I want to use the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine care to bind Ruoruo to me and form a profit link between us. But my real focus is actually on the health care formula developed by Ruoruo."
Du Shinan heaved a sigh, such a young girl actually had such a scheming mind. The utilitarianism she showed made Du Shinan a little unhappy. His granddaughter had a simple mind and she could not handle anything too complicated.
Du Ruo was very perceptive and quickly pulled his grandfather's arm: "Grandpa, I believe Xinya will never disregard my interests and ideas at any time."
Seeing Du Ruo's trusting eyes, Wen Xinya nodded at her: "Grandpa Du, I believe you also know that with the rapid development of the world economy, people's living standards have improved, and people's pursuit of quality of life and material things has become higher, and some luxury brands and health care products have emerged, so luxury goods and health care products are a huge business opportunity."
As a master in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, how could Du Shinan not understand people's pursuit of health care? Everyone is willing to spend a little time to take care of their body, and no one wants to see a doctor when they are sick. This mentality has also directly led to the huge profits of several health products in the world today.
Wen Xinya continued, "Luxury brands are already quite mature, but what they lack is innovation. Chinese medicine for skin care is already a precious culture that ancient Z country has left to future generations. Many years ago, senior Chinese medicine experts admitted that ancient Z country had a very complete system for Chinese medicine for skin care, and the results were amazing. Many people are researching related cosmetics, but they are quite immature. Ruoruo's research is already quite mature and can be put on the market directly."
Du Shinan nodded. Every time his granddaughter researched a new formula, he would check its ingredients. They were indeed quite mature and there would be no problem in putting it on the market.
