So Coincidental?

Li Yao was knowledgeable about women's madness.

The evil dragons in the Western world were definitely modeled after women—they were strong, enslaved men's hearts, had mood swings, and loved golden, sparkling objects. No wonder so many warriors wanted to be the "Dragon Rider".

After ending this topic, Li Yao picked up Li Shishi's report and read it.

The report emphasized the location and construction of the cultivation base. The focal point would be the isolated greenhouse with adjustable humidity and temperature. They would adopt automated cultivation management as much as possible, which was a high-end cultivation method. This was also a stunt that allowed them to use it to promote the products after they had been released into the market. Li Yao did not have anything to add on for the construction of the cultivation base. After all, they were the professionals.

He only asked Li Shishi to leave an 80cm wide circular ditch in the middle of the greenhouse.

He did not explain to Li Shishi the reason why.

Afterward, the report talked about using the original liquid to develop some facial products, as well as the future sales model.

These were things that were more or less settled. The plan was also the most suitable within the changing market conditions. Hence, he had nothing to criticize.

Li Shishi gave these to Li Yao to read because she was responsible for her business partners.

After reading the information, Li Yao was not worried about the report. He asked, "It's mostly fine. Let me ask you, when can we start profiting?"

Li Shishi already had the answer. "The construction of the cultivation base can be accelerated. After two months, the construction will be definitely completed. Regarding the cultivation of the original materials, according to what you said, we might need at least half a year's time to hoard the medicinal herbs. Of course, during the construction of the greenhouse, we will cultivate some herbs to create samples and explore its development. For the real profits to come, we might have to wait until the latter half of next year."

Li Yao nodded his head.

In other words, he would not have any income in this period of time.

This was reality…

When other main characters did things, money would fall into their pockets every minute as if it was directly delivered to their houses.

The main characters in those rebirth novels could earn a bucket of gold from the stock market. They could earn a fortune by making some jewelry accessories. They could even monopolize the market by frying some spicy snacks. In the end, they would enter the property market… It was simply bliss.

They were not like him!

Despite possessing unique recipes from an alternative world, he had to wait for more than half a year to truly reap the profits…

Li Yao was calculating when Li Shishi saw him and asked, "You lack money?"

Li Yao said, "That's not it. I'm just scared that there's no money to earn now."

He did not have any feelings of security!

Li Shishi laughed. "You refused 25% of my company's stocks that I offered to you earlier. Otherwise, you could've earned an income worth more than a hundred thousand dollars without doing anything."

Li Yao pouted. She still added injury to his wound by talking about the initial stocks?

This was no longer a problem with earning more than a hundred thousand dollars daily.

He calculated for a while and said, "I'm not too familiar with the provincial city. Can you help me find a shop? I'll invest in other areas for this period of time.

Li Shishi became serious. "Li Yao, your original liquid has immense market value! I think that it's better for you to focus your energy on that and see if you can develop a more impressive medicine."

Li Yao pursed his lips.

I do have more impressive medicine!

Do you want the longevity elixir?

For the powerful and wealthy, this is heavenly medicine that could not be bought with millions of gold. Even Emperor Qin would lower his head and call me big brother.

But I don't dare to take it out!

Perhaps he would present this elixir when he was powerful enough. It might even spread amongst the people and cause humanity to sprint towards an unknown direction. All sorts of societal problems would arise from this… It was deathly.

The detoxification medicine he had could also be used in conjunction with the vitality elixir.

The modern man actually had a lot of toxins suppressed within his or her body.

He could take this medicine out in the future.

Hence, Li Yao waved his hands. "Don't worry about this. For now, just do a good job with the original solution's business. Help me think about the storefront."

Li Shishi was a bit unwilling. However, she nodded and said, "What requests do you have?"

Li Yao thought about it and said, "There should be relatively a lot of space. It should be a loft, and it would be best to have three levels and to have the entire compound renovated. A vintage-style place would be good."

Li Shishi asked, "What industry do you want to work in?"

Li Yao said, "Something like a bar."

Almost every man had thought of opening a bar at some stage of his life. It should be convenient to travel to while also being relatively quiet. It would have a little courtyard, a balcony, and lush greenery. The tables and chairs should be comfortable and clean, and the dishes should be simple, fresh, and never tiring…

Feng Tang was the one who talked about this.

Although it was a bit cheesy, it was quite pleasant.

It was a life that Li Yao wanted.

However, Li Shishi frowned. After calculating a bit, she said straightforwardly, "How much money would you earn like this?"

In comparison to the huge profits in the cosmetics industry, opening a bar was like earning some allowance for Li Shishi.

—It might not even be enough.

Li Yao held onto the thermo-flask and laid backward. His entire body sank into the sofa, and he said comfortably, "It's not that profitable. but it's still an industry. It's fine as long as it can earn a bit of money. Anyway, I won't be concerned about money when the business with the original solution becomes successful."

Li Shishi's pretty frown deepened.

Li Yao's current condition stank strongly like an expired salty fish. The immense laziness made Li Shishi, the strong and independent woman, extremely uncomfortable.

She really wanted to beat him up!

Li Shishi's hand, which was hidden under the table, secretly clenched into a fist.

This was how being unambitious looked like, right?

He was so lucky to develop an original solution like that…

He was even luckier to find a business partner like her.

How maddening!

Why did she feel like she was working for him?

Li Shishi was unhappy, and her pretty face was frosty. She picked up her Coach bag, turned around, and left. "I understand, I'll help you take note."

Looking at Li Shishi's leaving figure, Li Yao sipped the Vitality Elixir pleasantly. "How comfortable~"

So what if he was a salted fish king?

A salted fish king could get others to earn money for himself.

He could earn money without doing anything!

Was that not so blissful?

It was not wrong to be a salted fish.

It was wrong to be a salted fish if you were poor…

After laying down for a while, Li Yao returned to his apartment in the college town.

His confidence as a salted fish was based on the knowledge and information he possessed. While Li Yao looked like a salted fish at places where people could see him, he was super hard-working at places where people could not see him!

This was a common disease amongst the top students.

Yeah.

I, Li Yao, am a top student!

Lin Xiaowei, who was now far away in the alternate world, could only be forcefully considered as a "study god" in the past, right? Unfortunately, she had died young and proceeded to bring woe upon the alternate world.

What a pity!

Li Shishi acted quickly. After a few days, she called him to say that a store was changing owners, and it fulfilled Li Yao's requests. It was spacious and had a good location. About the renovation… If he did not like it, he could just do it himself. Li Shishi said, "Are you free in the afternoon? If you are free, come over to take a look. It's at Gu Lou Road."
