Chapter 130: Five Requirements for Cooperation

As for the matter of getting the marriage certificate, it still depends on the man; although she is open and honest and speaks her mind when she likes someone, she still has to consider some worldly things.

"Yes, he will arrange it. Such a good girl must not be let off so easily by him." Mo Kun strongly supported this, even putting down his teacup.

Chen Xun sat to the side, looking at the few people with a helpless expression, "I am requesting leave this autumn to go back with my wife to take care of things."

Mo Kun and the Secretary exchanged a glance, "We'll see."

They really couldn't guarantee the time; who knows if there will be a mission in the autumn? Let alone getting married, even if a wife were giving birth, if there were a mission, one would have to return to the unit immediately.

They are soldiers; this is their sacred duty!

"I'm just giving you a heads-up; try your best to arrange the time." Chen Xun didn't expect too much either.

Since coming to the army, he had only been home once. One reason was that home was too far away; a round trip would take half a month, and they would never get such a long vacation.

"Nan Nan, I came here this time for another matter," Mo Kun said.

He had thought it over carefully and realized in the past few days that it was impossible to talk sense into that kid Chen Xun; he hadn't noticed it before, but the man was a total wife-slave.

If this matter was to be resolved, he still had to come find An Yinan.

For the past few days, the two of them had been so anxious about this matter that they had developed blisters on their lips.

"That Small Silver Pill is a Hemostatic Pill." An Yinan raised her head, the corners of her lips curling into a smile, giving off a professional air.

"The medicinal herbs used are very complex and cumbersome, and when refining the Pill, temperature control is very important. There are also requirements for the medicinal powder used to finally refine the Honey Pill." Before Mo Kun and the Secretary could speak, An Yinan stated bluntly that this pill came from her hands.

Mo Kun's eyes narrowed slightly, "How about our Northern Camp cooperates with you?"

An Yinan, however, shook her head. In the past few days, not only were Mo Kun and the Secretary worried, but the Military District Hospital was in an uproar, and the headquarters had also been calling frequently to inquire.

"The Northern Camp? I'm afraid that won't work." An Yinan refused.

She intended to let go of the prescription, but she had no intention of being a pushover.

"Tell us, what are your requirements? I will try my best to apply for them for you." The Secretary pondered for a moment; there was no point in talking about personal favors now. The prescription was in her hands, and she was a military spouse. It was said she had an even more significant status; the people he sent to investigate her identity had already been turned away.

Her identity was a level-two secret, and he did not have the clearance to view it.

So what could he do? Apply to the higher-ups, of course.

Mo Kun also nodded, "Whatever your requirements are, we will find a way."

"First, the Hemostatic Pill should not only be used in the military but also for the people, though the timing can be a year later, once the medicine can be mass-produced."

"Second, for use by our country's military, I will not charge any money or profit."

"Third, for use by our country's people, I require 20 percent of the net profit."

"Fourth, if sold abroad, I require 40 percent of the net profit."

"This prescription is not just for use within the country. I believe that once the hemostatic effect passes clinical tests, it will surely shock the whole world. Then there will be foreign capital. The resulting economic and trade relations will not just be about monetary sales; we could even exchange for things—weapons, technology, scientific research, and so on."

"For these exchanged items, I will charge a fee based on 20 percent."

Mo Kun and the Secretary looked at each other. Even though they had experienced war and had struggled through blood and corpses, at this moment, they felt the thrill of a different kind of battlefield.

"I understand. I will apply to the higher-ups, but whether it will pass, no one knows right now." Mo Kun nodded.

Since before, he had treated An Yinan as a peer, although sometimes he couldn't help but treat her like a child.

But her wisdom was truly astonishing.

She not only had the prescription but also had a complete plan surrounding it.

An Yinan nodded and agreed.

Before, she had thought about hiding it as long as she could; she wanted to stabilize her foundation more.

But now that she couldn't hide it, she would take a different path; reaching a cooperation was the best method.

After seeing Mo Kun and the Secretary off, An Yinan gave each of them a bag of tea leaves. Although it was still wrapped in new newspaper, it was a full half-jin.

The Secretary took it and smelled it, "Good tea. I really don't want other things, but this tea has truly touched my heart."

Mo Kun smiled, "I won't stand on ceremony with you two; I'll take it directly."

"You've taken quite a lot already." Chen Xun chuckled, looking at Mo Kun, unable to resist teasing him.

The Secretary laughed heartily, "You got told off, didn't you? That's what you get for having a loose tongue."

"This kid is just a wife-slave," Mo Kun couldn't help but grumble.

After seeing the two off, Chen Xun did not ask about An Yinan's specific thoughts or why she had proposed such conditions.

He only stoked the stove to make it burn brighter, the crackling sound in the stove constant, "Wife, this environment is too cold."

Although he wanted An Yinan to accompany him and stay by his side, this environment was too harsh, and he couldn't bear to see An Yinan suffer here.

An Yinan was still thinking about things, and upon hearing him say this, she came back to her senses.

"What's wrong? I'm going back to Quanshui Village in a few days." An Yinan looked at the man with amusement; his hesitant expression made her want to tease him.

"Oh, then I'll see you off." The air pressure around Chen Xun was a bit low, but his tone was calm.

How could he bear to make his wife angry?

An Yinan looked the man over—in his military uniform, over one meter ninety tall, perhaps due to his habits as a soldier, he always stood straight like a white poplar tree. The upright aura coming from him and his sharp eyes—how could he look so pleasing no matter how she looked at him!

If someone asked her now, "Do you believe in light?"

An Yinan thought she would definitely nod without hesitation.

She didn't believe in stories from cartoons, but she believed in these people who walked against the light, constantly watering the land they guarded with their sweat and blood.

Every drop of sweat they shed was forging the safety of the people and adding bricks and tiles to the protection of the nation.

"What are you thinking about?" Chen Xun looked at his distracted little wife, sat down beside her, and carefully studied her expression.

These days, his little wife had lost so much weight; although she had started to nourish herself these past two days, it would ultimately take time.

"Thinking of you." An Yinan hadn't fully returned to her senses and said it offhandedly.

And as soon as Chen Xun heard this, his cold, hard brows and eyes instantly softened. His straight nose bridge seemed to lose its sharpness, his lips relaxed, his hands rubbed together unconsciously, and his body leaned forward slightly.

After An Yinan said it, she came to her senses. Seeing the man like this, she was a bit surprised, as it was a look she had never seen before, "I mean, I haven't even reached Quanshui Village yet, and I'm already missing you more and more~"
