Professor Ke first weighed and separated each precious medicinal ingredient, then, in order, placed them into the centrifuge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Ke was a relatively capable expert in the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the country. Traditional Chinese medicine used decoction methods, which resulted in significant waste of effective ingredients and insufficient purity, so by combining equipment like reactors and centrifuges used for preparing Western medicine, the effective ingredients in the Chinese medicinal materials could be well preserved and purified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng, seeing Xiao Yiqian's nervous expression, smiled and said to Xiao Yiqian, \"Chairman Xiao, this is a new generation formula improved on the basis of our Wei family's top-secret prescription. According to Professor Ke's calculations and deductions, all toxic side effects have been completely eliminated. It is a genuine miracle medicine. I can guarantee that after you take it, the medicine will surely cure the disease!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Xiao Yiqian couldn't help but look excited and said, \"That's truly great. I hope the efficacy of this medicine won't disappoint me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng hurriedly patted his chest and said, \"Chairman Xiao, please rest assured, this medicine will definitely cure your stubborn ailment. Before the formula was improved, I traveled the world relying on this miracle medicine; serving ten women a day was not a problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yiqian was somewhat moved by the scene he described and said, \"Is it really that magical?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng said with extreme seriousness, \"Chairman Xiao, the efficacy of our Wei family's miracle medicine is three or four times that of Viagra, and the improved formula has even better efficacy, potentially reaching ten times!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yiqian was instantly overjoyed. With such magical effects, it seemed that his root ailment could most likely be completely cured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Wei Changming asked curiously, \"Dad, if this medicine is mass-produced, wouldn't it be able to be sold overseas and suppress foreign Viagra?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng waved his hand and said, \"Of course. Once mass production is achieved, men all over the world will use my Wei family's miracle medicine. There will be no such thing as so-called Viagra, and there will only be one male miracle medicine on the market, and that will be my Wei family's miracle medicine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Wei Yongzheng said to Xiao Yiqian, \"I wonder if Chairman Xiao has any intention of investing in the Wei family's pharmaceutical factory? If Chairman Xiao is willing, you only need to invest two or three billion, and you can get back ten billion in revenue within a year!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yiqian was also very tempted. Businessmen value profit, and he was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Wei family's miracle medicine was truly that powerful, they would definitely make a fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Xiao Yiqian smiled and said, \"If the efficacy is true, an investment of one billion is nothing; I can take it out easily, but I must see the efficacy first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng was waiting for these words. He immediately laughed loudly and hurriedly said, \"Chairman Xiao, let you experience the effect of the first batch of medicine yourself. If you think it's good, we can talk about the investment!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Wei Yongzheng did not know that Xiao Yiqian's illness was not something that could be treated by ordinary medicine at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, whether the Wei family's so-called \"miracle medicine,\" although improved, was truly effective and truly free of toxic side effects, remained an unknown...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, Xiao Yiqian's mind was filled with thoughts of regaining his virility, and he couldn't care less about what the consequences would be if this medicine failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a bit dry-mouthed and was eager to take the Wei family's miracle medicine immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Professor Ke had finished formulating the miracle medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the action of the centrifuge, all the medicinal components were separated, and finally, Professor Ke purified them into a bowl of deep purple medicinal soup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Manager Wei, the new medicine has been formulated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Ke carried the medicinal soup and placed it in front of everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint medicinal fragrance immediately emerged in the air, making people feel hot and dry-mouthed just by smelling it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that the potency of this medicine was truly fierce!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yongzheng looked at Xiao Yiqian and smiled, \"Chairman Xiao, please have this bowl of medicine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yiqian was already impatient. He looked at the medicinal soup with fiery eyes and swallowed his saliva.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These days, enduring the torture of being a living eunuch was truly too hard to bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only was it physical pain, but the psychological blow also made Xiao Yiqian suffer greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, heaven had pity on him and let him catch up with the Wei family's miracle medicine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that today he would finally be able to regain his virility!\u003C\u002Fp>",1433,"2026-06-17T16:51:27.253Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","7472544c0f7b6b5976692c6ac39b6927a74608bdd9bfeb5aa374358834a5005e","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-243","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-241",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
