While hiding, he was also quietly waiting for an opportunity to rise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Xiao Weiwei spoke to Wei Changming: \"Honey, it’s not worth getting angry with a piece of trash and a bastard. Let’s go in quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Changming nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, this piece of trash, and Wei Liang, this bastard, were both garbage in his eyes. Even though he had suffered a big loss under Ye Chen’s hands once, he still didn't think Ye Chen was a remarkable person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, he was still waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on Ye Chen to relieve his hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was too lazy to argue with these people. The reason he came to the expo was for that 300-year-old top-grade purple ginseng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Xiao Yiqian and Wei Changming, if they dared to continue showing off in front of him, he had plenty of opportunities to clean them up slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xiao Yiqian, Wei Changming, and others leave, Shi Tianqi shook his head and sighed: \"This Xiao Yiqian is really self-inflicted and cannot live!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Gang said: \"Master Ye, Divine Physician Shi, let’s go in too, don't let these villains affect our mood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled and said: \"A group of clowns, of course I won't take it to heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people walked into the center of the exhibition hall. There were various TCM medicinal material exhibition counters here, and each family displayed many kinds of medicinal materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Gang first invited Ye Chen to inspect his own booth. The Qin family was worthy of being a medicinal material merchant with a century-old history. They had more than a dozen display cabinets, and all kinds of rare medicinal materials filled the counters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Gang said to Ye Chen: \"Master Ye, if there are any medicinal materials you need in here, just speak up, and I will take them out for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded and said: \"After I get the 300-year-old top-grade purple ginseng, I might refine a new medicine. When the time comes, I will tell you what I need.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Gang hurriedly said to Ye Chen: \"Master Ye, if you have any requirements, just give orders, Qin Gang will definitely fulfill them for you with all his strength!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked around at the expo and didn't find any medicinal materials worth his attention, which made him somewhat disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems that most of the medicinal materials are actually just ordinary goods, with nothing special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After strolling for a while, it was almost time for the auction, so Ye Chen went to the auction hall with Qin Gang and Shi Tianqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire auction hall could accommodate hundreds of people, and the area was very large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Directly in front of the auction hall, a transparent display stand with glass on four sides was built, and in the center was the 300-year-old top-grade purple ginseng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after Ye Chen saw this purple ginseng, he was happy in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could perceive that the medicinal power of this purple ginseng was rich. According to his vision, this purple ginseng was said to be 300 years old, but it was actually approaching 400 years old, and the quality was even better than imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ginseng comes in many types, ordinary ginseng, American ginseng, red ginseng, purple ginseng, wild mountain ginseng. Among them, purple ginseng is the rarest and most expensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And ginseng itself has a lifespan. Most of them cannot live past a hundred years. Therefore, it is not that a ginseng has not been picked, it can become a hundred-year-old ginseng or a several-hundred-year-old ginseng. Most ginseng, even if not picked, will die of old age after living for a hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ginseng that can live for more than two or three hundred years is the best among ginseng, and ginseng that can live for more than five hundred years is almost extremely rare. Some people pick ginseng all their lives and never have the chance to see it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for thousand-year-old ginseng, it is even more of a priceless treasure, almost only existing in legends, and it is very rare to see anyone take it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, this 300-year-old top-grade purple ginseng is extremely precious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the auction hall was crowded with people. Most of the people who came were big shots famous in the TCM, pharmaceutical, and medicinal material circles across the country, as well as many old TCM doctors who could be called national medical sages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, many were quite familiar with Shi Tianqi. After seeing Shi Tianqi come in, they stepped forward to congratulate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The congratulations were for his successful cure of high paraplegia, creating a miracle in medical history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shi Tianqi felt extremely ashamed in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone thought the credit for curing high paraplegia was his, but only he knew that the credit was entirely Ye Chen’s. It was Master Ye Chen who liked to keep a low profile, so he let him take the credit on his behalf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people surrounded Shi Tianqi and asked about his method of curing high paraplegia. Shi Tianqi said: \"Actually, treating high paraplegia is not my own ability, but a divine medicine I accidentally obtained that exerted a huge therapeutic effect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone asked: \"Old Shi, can you publish the prescription of this divine medicine? If it is published, it will benefit all mankind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" Someone echoed, saying: \"Divine Physician Shi, if you publish this prescription, you might be able to win the Nobel Prize in Medicine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tianqi said awkwardly: \"Let’s forget about this, there are indeed some hidden feelings that are inconvenient to talk about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, a young man in a suit and leather shoes came to Shi Tianqi, bowed slightly, and said in not-so-fluent Chinese: \"Hello, Divine Physician Shi, my name is Ichiro Kobayashi, and I am the vice chairman of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical in Japan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tianqi nodded and said: \"I know your Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, I don't know what you are looking for me for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ichiro Kobayashi said earnestly: \"Divine Physician Shi, our Kobayashi Pharmaceutical is the most powerful pharmaceutical company in Asia. There are many best-selling classic drugs that are developed and produced by our Kobayashi Pharmaceutical. With such strong strength as support, we have the ability to carry forward your prescription for treating high paraplegia and make it sell globally to more than 200 countries. Therefore, I sincerely hope that you can sell this prescription to us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the other party’s words, Shi Tianqi couldn't help but frown and said: \"I remember, many of your drugs are not developed by yourselves. Those drugs use our Han prescriptions!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called Han prescription is actually the ancient prescription of Chinese TCM.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Japan and South Korea were deeply influenced by Chinese culture in ancient times, and their medicine naturally inherited TCM. Now, pharmaceutical companies in these two countries are making a big fuss about Han prescription drugs, which is to say, plagiarizing the things of Chinese ancestors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because ancient Han prescriptions are recorded in some pharmacopoeia works, and there is no clear patent copyright protection, these Japanese and Korean pharmaceutical companies have plagiarized various prescriptions from TCM pharmacopoeia one after another, and then produced various drugs to sell globally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they made it clear that these drugs originated from ancient Han prescriptions, it would be fine, but they insisted on promoting to the outside world that those prescriptions were researched by themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some even more shameless ones would say that Han prescriptions were medical prescriptions passed down by their own country’s ancestors, making global consumers think that these drugs were really the historical inheritance of Japan and South Korea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of public plagiarism has long made Shi Tianqi and a large group of TCM scholars indignant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ichiro Kobayashi said proudly at this time: \"Divine Physician Shi, I want to correct your mistake. None of our Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s drugs use Han prescriptions. They are all improved by ourselves based on the essence of our Japanese national medicine!\" \u003C\u002Fp>",1411,"2026-06-17T16:51:27.253Z","2026-06-18T03:30:09.135Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","bb97b652fcad6b84d8ad902a989aa501befe58342975c2e96a6c57b30bee326c","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-231","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-229",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
