As soon as Liam finished speaking, a trace of astonishment flashed across Morgan's face. He looked at Liam and asked, "Is it really that simple? Are you saying you can decide on the profit distribution after the drug goes into production?""Naturally," Liam nodded casually.Morgan chuckled disdainfully at Liam, looking at him as if he were a fool. "Hah! You're really asking for trouble!"Then, he turned to Callum as he cupped his hands and added confidently, "Master Ferguson, I'll leave you to it!"Callum stroked his beard with a self-satisfied look. "It's no trouble. Since this youngster wants to see me concoct the medicine firsthand, I won't hide anything."As he spoke, he looked at Liam with mockery in his eyes. "However, the price for me to handle this isn't small!"They all thought Liam's actions were simply foolish.Lucy's face flashed with anxiety upon hearing Liam's decision. "Grandmaster Burrey..."She knew Liam had their best interests at heart. He wanted to use Callu
The decoction process involved understanding the nature of the herbs. Raw herbs were sharp and acted quickly, while processed ones had a more refined and gentle effect. When Callum began preparing the medicine, it was evident that he was indeed a renowned traditional Hestian medicine master.Based on the prescription, Callum leveraged his extensive experience to bring out the best qualities of each herb. His control over the heat during the decoction process was precise and masterful. Moreover, perhaps motivated by his bet with Liam, Callum's performance was exceptional.As time passed, a faint bitterness filled the air. When Callum added the final ingredient, two ounces of roasted licorice, and saw it dissolve, he swiftly removed the pot from the heat.The tonic was complete.Turning to Morgan, Callum nodded. "Are the contract documents ready?"Morgan sneered at Liam. "You won't back out of the deal, will you?"Liam raised an eyebrow, glancing at the dark tonic in the pot. "
Morgan collapsed to the ground, his face twisted in pain as he pointed at Liam and shouted, "Despicable scoundrel, you poisoned us! You shameless creature! The Denzel family will not let you get away with this—"However, before he could finish speaking, Liam interrupted him."Poisoned?"Liam shook his head, a mocking expression flashing across his handsome face. "Do you think you're worthy of being poisoned by me?"Morgan's face contorted with rage. "If it weren't for you, you wretched thing, how else would we end up like this?""The Compendium of Ancient Tincture states that the Spring Dawn Tincture is highly nourishing and has the effect of restoring and boosting vitality. However, if the medicine isn't properly prepared and the efficacy is not fully realized, it'll cause a surge in vitality."A young person might withstand it, but someone weak will suffer a backlash from the excessive nourishment. The first person who tried the medicine was probably young enough to resist the
Callum never imagined in his wildest dreams that the young man actually possessed such astonishing medical skills. Just the technique Liam had demonstrated earlier had already exceeded his expectations.Recalling the words Liam had once spoken, Callum's body trembled. If the miraculous formula for the Spring Dawn Tincture indeed came from the ancient Compendium of Ancient Tincture, did that mean the young man in front of him actually knew the long-lost medical treatise?How had the ancient Hestian medical community not heard of the young man? Who was he?Lucy was also stunned. Initially, she thought Liam's acupuncture skills were unparalleled, but he might not be familiar with herbal medicine. However, everything that had just happened shattered her understanding of Liam once again.Lucy gazed at Liam's tall figure, her expression dazed as she muttered, "Liam... What other secrets are you hiding from me?"Suddenly, a foolish voice jolted Lucy back to reality.Morgan plastered a f
Liam was momentarily stunned. "What's wrong?"A trace of helplessness flickered across Lucy's charming face. "I thought this prescription was a rare and precious formula. Who knew, Grandmaster Burrey, that you'd understand the prescription better than us? Given the difficulty in preparing the Spring Dawn Tincture, we simply can't scale it up for the market."Liam nodded. "That's true. The preparation method of the Spring Dawn Tincture indeed can't be mass-produced."The final step required a vast amount of inner energy, something an average person couldn't achieve.Seeing that even Liam could not find a way, a look of complete disappointment flashed on Lucy's face as she sighed. But soon, she lifted her head to look at Liam. "Don't worry, Grandmaster Burrey. Even though our charity foundation's pharmaceutical project can't continue, I can find other new projects to improve our foundation!""Why can't the pharmaceutical project continue?" Liam asked in surprise.Lucy looked up in
"Grandmaster Burrey..."Thinking about those things made Lucy suddenly look up, a flicker of confusion in her eyes as she gazed at him.At that moment, she began to understand why Julian was always respectful toward Liam. The upright figure in front of her seemed capable of anything.The realization quickened her heartbeat.Liam's voice interrupted her thoughts. "Note down the recipe for the Vitality Aid Powder.""Yes, Grandmaster Burrey," Lucy responded quickly, grabbing paper and a pen."Three ounces of Atractylodes, one ounce each of Poria and dried tangerine peel, one and a half ounces of lotus seeds, half an ounce of malt. Ground them into a powder before adding two ounces of white sugar..."As Liam calmly listed the ingredients, Lucy diligently recorded the recipe."The decoction method for the Vitality Aid Powder is straightforward and simple," Liam continued once she had finished writing.Suddenly, as if remembering something, Liam looked at her and said, "However, sin
Lucy sensed the sudden shift in Liam's emotions as she looked up at him. At that moment, she suddenly felt that the omnipotent Liam seemed a bit melancholic."Grandmaster Burrey? What's wrong?"However, Liam quickly adjusted his emotions and looked down at Lucy. "Nothing. I just think the name you chose is exceptionally beautiful."Lucy shook her head, a charming smile appearing on her face. "It's a good thing you were here this time, Grandmaster Burrey."She looked up at Liam, her eyes like autumn waters, and added seriously, "If it weren't for you, we really wouldn't have known what to do!"Liam smiled. "It's nothing. After all, the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation is a project we established together.""Together?" Lucy murmured.She had already decided to make the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, which she and Liam established, the best foundation in the world!However, Lucy did not reveal her inner thoughts.She looked up at Liam and smiled. "Liam, the matter has been
The secretary gave Serena a once-over and asked, "You're looking for Mister Lloyd? Do you have an appointment?"Serena grew slightly annoyed. "I'm Serena Lloyd! Do I need an appointment to see Etchen?"The secretary scowled in disdain. "No matter who you are, you need an appointment to see Mister Lloyd. Besides, Mister Lloyd is out for a meeting and hasn't returned yet."Serena was momentarily taken aback. "Out for a meeting and hasn't returned? What kind of meeting begins so early in the morning?"The secretary rolled her eyes even more exaggeratedly. "How would I know?"Serena's eyes flashed with a trace of anger. However, she knew it was not the time to argue with the secretary.Ignoring the secretary blocking the door, she turned around, took out her phone, and dialed Etchen's number.As soon as the call connected, Etchen's arrogant voice came through. "Serena! Calling me so early, what's wrong with you? Don't bother me if there's nothing important! I'm very busy!"Serena t
