Chapter 1146: Perhaps I can find a new business path
Master Cao, Cao Yueyue's younger brother, runs the "Old Fisherman" herbal restaurant with all his heart. By the end of last month, "Old Fisherman" herbal restaurant had opened 5 branches in the urban area of ​​Lijin. They are both chain stores and directly operated by the Cao family. With the influence of the Cao family behind the scenes and Master Cao's special care, business in all the stores has been booming.

Lijin City is a metropolis with a population of tens of millions, and the market for herbal medicine business has always been good. If you really do it well, you can make a lot of money after working hard for a year. In comparison, the business operation environment in Lishi County is much worse. According to Nana, so far, she has not heard of anyone opening a similar store in the county.

Normally, medicinal food is also one of Bian Mu's responsibilities, but... technically, this is not Bian Mu's strong point.

According to Bian Mu's usual observations, Huang Boxi never got involved in the city's medicinal food business. It was heard that... a large company once hired the old man as a senior consultant with a high salary, promising a very good consultant allowance per year. It was legal and compliant, and he made money in the process.

At the beginning, Huang Boxi earned similar consulting allowances in many Chinese medicine pharmaceutical companies such as "Liushunrong", and Bian Mu saw it several times with his own eyes.

None of Huang Boxi's children are successful. All of them are just "living off their parents". Bian Mu has even heard the old man complain many times, saying that the Huang family's feng shui is bad. Now even the grandchildren show signs of being proud of "living off their parents". Huang Boxi has been quite hurt deep down because of this.

Anyone with real ability would feel the pain of having no successor if they see their children and grandchildren have no future. It is far beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

Bian Mu believes that he has some real skills, and he may be able to "achieve success" in the future and truly grow into the founder of the "Digital Medicine" school that will open up a new trend for a new generation of Chinese medicine. However, today, as his savings are increasing day by day, what major life events have he actually done for his parents? !

Limited to the extreme!

Whenever he thought of this, Bian Mu would feel deeply ashamed and anxious.

It is not difficult to draw a conclusion from his own experience. Seeing that there was no decent child in the Huang family for two generations, how could Huang Boxi not be anxious? Therefore, whenever he had the chance, Huang Boxi would try to make more money for his children and grandchildren, and the more the better, hoping that his children and grandchildren would have some money in their hands so that they could use the money when they encountered difficulties in the future.

Money is something that can be spent anywhere! This is a common pathology, and Huang Boxi naturally understands it more deeply.

However, Huang Boxi never hesitated to make a penny from the medicinal food.

Bian Mu never quite understood this.

Cao Yueyue is good at manipulating people, and has been urging Bian Muyouqing to join the herbal medicine business circle, invest in technology, and share dividends every six months.

Bian Mu thought that his energy and time were limited, and he could not take care of many pure TCM business matters. With the opening of the Chinese Medicine Clinic imminent, how could he have the time to earn this money? ! Bian Mu always declined the offer politely.

However, Bian Mu was kind-hearted, and whenever Mr. Cao encountered technical difficulties, he would always give him guidance without reservation, whether through telephone communication or face-to-face interviews. The Cao family would give him some consulting fees from time to time, but he had never accepted it once.

It's not that Bian Mu is being aloof, it's just that he doesn't think that kind of money is meaningful. In fact, Bian Mu didn't have much hope for the Cao family. From childhood to adulthood, influenced by his mother, Bian Mu has always been a self-reliant and self-reliant person. He never had the idea of ​​"holding a thick leg", "borrowing chickens to lay eggs", "taking the shortcut to Zhongnan"... In his mind, it would be fine to open a "fisherman" in the city. It's not for anything else, just to give Mr. Cao a practical job, and a job that he is more interested in, so that he can gradually feel at ease and finally get a complete recovery.

For Bian Mu, it was enough to completely cure an important patient.

Sometimes people should not be too greedy.

However, Cao Yueyue was not willing to stop there at all. She was too obsessed with money, and Bian Mu had always been at odds with her in this regard.

Gradually, Bian Mu became estranged from the Cao family.

Now, based on various opportunities, Bian Mu is actually once again trapped in the business dilemma of the "Psychotherapy Room" run by the Cao family: if he participates, the concepts of everyone in all aspects are still quite different, and in some aspects, they are even completely contradictory; if he does not participate, his relationship with the Cao family will be completely severed, then... if he seeks further development in the research and development, production and sales of traditional Chinese medicines in the future, he will completely lose the help of the Cao family or offend the Cao family, and perhaps many things will not be accomplished at all.

Bian Mu has always been quite conflicted.

Not only that, in terms of personal feelings, Bian Mu always felt that it was somewhat difficult to deal with people of this level, such as Cao Yueyue, Chen Yueqing, Qi Yuewei's father, etc. He felt uncomfortable staying with them anyway...

Bian Mu is a person with very developed intuitive thinking. In his opinion, from Mr. Shao, Fang Yiqun, to Luo Jiaming, Chen Yueqing, to Cao Yueyue, Qi's father, and even... to Zhong Xiangxin, some of the things they reveal seem to be somewhat contrary to the authentic business ethics to varying degrees. Bian Mu has always vaguely believed that business, especially big business, does not seem to be done that way!
Deep down, Bian Mu has always found it difficult to get too close to Cao Yueyue.

Bian Mu privately believed that he was born in such a good era. After his medical skills became more mature, he might be able to find a new way to do business, a new business path that bigwigs like Cao Yueyue rarely experienced, or perhaps had never walked on at all.

Today, seeing with his own eyes how Cao Yueyue treated her employees in a simple, crude, and casual way, Bian Mu was completely convinced of one thing: if you are on different paths, you cannot work together! From now on, in principle, he does not plan to have any dealings with the Cao family.

"No matter how poor my family is, I must hold my head high and keep my cervical vertebrae and spine straight. Even if I don't achieve anything in business in the future, I must never behave like Cao Yueyue." Thinking of this, Bian Mu decided to sit for a while and then told Xiaojing's mother to leave.

"Mr. Cao! According to the pulse, both you and Mr. Sun have symptoms of anxiety. Your pulse has been showing symptoms for at least ten years. Fortunately, you have had a very good physique since childhood, and your living conditions are so superior. Layer by layer, rolling, coming and going, over the years, your pulse has shown a tendency to move in the direction of a strange pulse. For example, the pulse on your right hand has some meaning of sedimentary rocks in geology. Based on reasoning, you two might as well use your intuition to imagine to what extent it will develop in the long run?!" Bian Mu explained with a smile.

Although Xiaojing's mother was shocked after hearing this, her expression was still relatively calm.

Cao Yueyue was quite shrewd. She was really shocked when she heard this. Although her face was calm, the little finger of her left hand trembled slightly a few times involuntarily. Maybe she didn't even notice it herself, but Bian Mu, who had sharp eyes, saw it inadvertently.
