My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 376 - 13 Disgust_2

"How could this happen?" Ren Wenwen said with disappointment in her voice.

"That’s the result of not doing the groundwork properly," Lin Xiaoguai replied indifferently.

Of course, that wasn’t the case, but Li Chengxue and the others couldn’t extract the medicinal properties with spiritual power like she could, so the outcome was bound to be just this.

The four pharmacists exchanged helpless glances. It was not that they couldn’t achieve what Lin Xiaoguai did, but attaining her level would require copious practice, and the energy expended would hardly be worth the gains.

Considering the situation today, it was clear that the healing medicine wouldn’t be widely distributed for military use.

After sending the four pharmacists away, Lin Xiaoguai sighed and said, "I have no idea what the outcome will be." After all, who knew if the Military Department would want to recruit her to make medicine for the military all day because she was capable of producing it.

"Don’t worry, nothing will happen," Shen Chi said, knowing what she was worried about.

There might be uncertainties regarding other matters, but Shen Chi was always confident that he could keep Wanwan safe.

Amid Lin Xiaoguai’s anxiety, the result finally arrived.

"Supply medicine for the military?" Lin Xiaoguai blinked her eyes.

Shen Chi nodded, "The old man said it, the price will be the same as in your store, only there has to be a fixed quota every month that can’t be less."

The healing medicine Lin Xiaoguai made was too effective. Even though it couldn’t be widely used, the higher-ups couldn’t bear to let it go, so it was designated as a medication for special needs, only to be provided to soldiers for high-risk missions.

"What’s the fixed quota?"

"Two thousand doses." After a pause, he added, "The higher-ups mean that your store should no longer sell that kind of healing medicine; it should be exclusively supplied to the military."

Lin Xiaoguai thought about it and didn’t find the proposition unacceptable. After all, she had other healing medicines on hand, though not as fast-acting as that one, but they were still much better than the healing medicines sold elsewhere.

As for the two thousand doses of healing medicine, it wasn’t a problem for her. She liked to DIY, but for something like pharmacy, a workshop could handle it too. Besides, she now had five master titles hanging over her head, and using the workshop wouldn’t cost her any Gold Coins.

"Has the military ever thought about mass production?"

"They tried, but it was useless," Shen Chi replied, his arm around her waist. "However, they found that ointments made from that kind of failed medicine, though not as effective as the successful ones, were still somewhat better than the Western medicine originally available to the troops. They’re estimating that this failed product will be widely used in the military."

Lin Xiaoguai was surprised to hear this, but she realized that every recipe from the system was a masterpiece, improved upon by an Alien Civilization over thousands of years, and was naturally superior to local medicines.

"There’s also this." Shen Chi pulled out a check for sixty thousand yuan, "The old man got this for you, keep it."

When dealing with Han Kuang, Shen Chi never knew the meaning of courtesy. At first, the other party would get hopping mad, but gradually, he came to accept it as normal.

It seemed that the word was out about Lin Xiaoguai supplying medicine to the army, and the medicine in her store suddenly became a hot seller. Before, if customers didn’t have a need — and typically it was a need not satisfied by other pharmacies — they would never inquire about her medicines.

Life seemed to have calmed down again. After the start of summer, Shen Yinian was on summer vacation. Lin Xiaoguai was considering spending some time living in Zhi Xin Garden as a vacation with her family since Shen Chi wasn’t busy with work recently. That’s when she received a call from Yang Xiaoli saying she was pregnant.

"How did it happen so quickly?" Lin Xiaoguai was taken aback but then laughed, "That’s wonderful news. Be careful and let the auntie run the store. Don’t overwork yourself, or you’ll regret it later..."

She went on about her own experiences and Yang Xiaoli, on the other end of the phone, didn’t find it annoying at all and listened carefully, even taking notes.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaoguai still had the smile on her face that she hadn’t had the chance to shed.

However, her good mood didn’t last long. Seeing Hu Fangfang standing at the entrance of the courtyard, she hesitated about whether to turn back and use a different door to get home.

But in the next moment, she didn’t have to decide; Hu Fangfang had already seen her, her eyes lit up, and she hurried over excitedly, "Xiao Guai, I’ve finally found you. I begged at the gate, but the guards refused to let me in."

Hearing the latter part, Lin Xiaoguai inwardly praised the duty soldiers at the gate for a job well done, then asked, "Is there something you need from me?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Hu Fangfang paused, looked around uncertainly, and stammered, "Can we talk at your place?"

"Let’s talk here." Lin Xiaoguai did not want her following her home. If the guards thought she had a close relationship with Hu Fangfang and let her in next time, Lin Xiaoguai would be disgusted.

Hu Fangfang looked troubled but seeing her resolve, whispered, "Xiao Guai, could you lend me one thousand yuan?"

Lin Xiaoguai almost burst out laughing. She was asking her for money?

"No." She had to be cautious in the store, but not now.

"How can you not have it?" Hu Fangfang became anxious, "Didn’t you donate fifty thousand yuan the other time? I only need one thousand. Lend it to me, and I’ll pay you back two thousand later."

Tearfully, she said, "Xiao Guai, I’m begging you, help me. My son is sick. I need that one thousand yuan urgently. Any further delay, and the specialist who can cure him is going back to his country, and my son’s life will be ruined!"

This was the first time Lin Xiaoguai had heard such sincere words from her, but... she shook her head and said, "I’m sorry."

If she hadn’t heard about Hu Fangfang from Yu Xiaomiao, considering the child’s innocence, she probably would have agreed to lend the money after hearing these words, even knowing that it was highly likely she wouldn’t see that money again.

But the behavior of Hu Fangfang, who hadn’t cared about her son early on and only began to do what a mother should do in an attempt to salvage her marriage after her son had already become an idiot, was despicable to Lin Xiaoguai.
