After all, in her opinion, this guy was really a bit ignorant.
Chapter 171: A Business Worth Billions!
After leaving the hospital, Rhode fell into thought.
There were two problems in front of him now. The first problem was how to expand the production of the Youth Restoration Potion.
Concocting potions wasn't just a matter of having the materials.
In addition to the necessary materials, the most crucial element was magic power.
Magic power was essential as a neutralizing agent to perfectly fuse all the potion ingredients together.
The proportion control had to be precise to the extreme. Even the slightest deviation could cause the potion concoction to fail.
If he wanted to produce enough potions to supply the whole world, materials would certainly be a tricky problem.
But the most important thing was where to find so many wizards to produce potions for him.
However, he had already thought of a solution, which was to solve it through alchemical means.
Using alchemy, he could create a unique magic power culture dish, which could autonomously generate magic power.
Then, according to a pre-set fixed ratio, he could accurately mix the magic power into each step of the production line, eventually successfully producing a qualified potion.
If his idea could be realized, mass production of potions would not be a problem.
However, this method had a major flaw: alchemical instruments could only use a fixed template to produce one kind of potion.
Once used to configure other more complex potions, the instrument's magic power ratio would become chaotic.
However, compared to the benefits to be gained, this small defect was almost negligible.
Different potion production required different instruments, so he could instead earn secondary profits by selling the instruments.
A carefully crafted instrument would cost at least tens of thousands of dollars.
As for the second problem, it was naturally the material problem.
Although the materials needed to refine basic potions like the Youth Restoration Potion were relatively common, collecting them was also a troublesome matter.
But he didn't need to worry about this.
Since he had already given it to Liang Shiqin, Liang Shiqin would definitely find a way to solve this problem.
Rhode carefully recalled everything in his mind, and after confirming that there were no omissions, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The next thing he had to do was to create a production line instrument that could mass-produce potions, and then become a hands-off shopkeeper.
As for other problems, Liang Shiqin's background was unusual, and her ability was also outstanding.
She would naturally find professional personnel to solve the problem.
If she couldn't even solve this little problem, then she wouldn't get a piece of this 30% cake.
On the other side, not long after Rhode left, Liang Shiqin unhesitatingly began to contact the family and forces behind her.
She disclosed the situation of the Youth Restoration Potion in detail to the elders of her family.
The Liang family's homeland was in Dragon Country, but in the last century, due to suppression from the upper echelons, they had no choice but to relocate to the Lighthouse Country.
After decades of ups and downs, the Liang family had grown and become one of the giants in the pharmaceutical field of the Lighthouse Country.
Not only was its strength strong, but it also held a pivotal position in the industry.
Moreover, it had also made friends with many allies, weaving a complex and vast network of relationships.
Although the potion that could make people stay young forever contained huge benefits, with the Liang family's powerful forces, it was not difficult to get a share of the pie.
No one could withstand this kind of pressure, even the top ten consortia of the Lighthouse Country would be helpless.
After all, this was a cake worth trillions of dollars, which no one had ever touched before.
Even the ten famous consortia of the Lighthouse Country would probably be powerless in the face of this situation.
A pack of wolves can bite a tiger to death, and what's more, these capital giants are not wolves.
Liang Shiqin's statement was naturally questioned by many members of the Liang family, after all, a potion that could make people stay young forever sounded a bit like a fantasy.
If there really was such a thing, then those skin care products circulating on the market, one by one, the stock market would at least be cut in half.
Liang Shiqin naturally knew that what she said was a bit unbelievable.
After all, even she hadn't believed that the effect of this potion would be so powerful before the experimental results came out.
However, the facts were right in front of her, and even if she didn't want to believe it, she had to believe it.
Liang Shiqin directly sent the records of several experiments, as well as several samples of Youth Restoration Potion left by Rhode before he left, back to the family.
As a giant in the pharmaceutical industry, the elders of the Liang family naturally had a way to determine whether what she said was true.
As long as her words were confirmed, the rest would be simple.
Faced with such huge benefits, the family would definitely support it without reservation.
The only problem now is that Rhode is holding the formula and core of the potion, and he's insisting on taking 51% of the profits.
Not to mention other capital giants, even her own elders at home probably wouldn't agree to this.
With a 20% profit distribution, she could work hard and still have a chance to persuade her family to agree.
But for one person to swallow more than 50% of the profits, that's a bit much.
Isn't that just treating the other capital giants like dogs?
Once these capital giants confirm the effectiveness of the potion, they will definitely try to force the core formula of the anti-aging potion out of Rhode's mouth.
After all, this is something worth trillions of dollars.
Who can resist such temptation?
It all depends on whether this guy can withstand this wave of pressure.
If he can withstand this pressure, even if these capital giants are unhappy, they can only grit their teeth and accept this profit distribution.
But if he can't withstand this pressure, the outcome will be that he loses everything.
Even the Liang family will be affected by this.
After all, if the anti-aging potion formula falls into the hands of others, even if the Liang family is unwilling, they will definitely have to give up a piece of the pie to win over the person who obtained the formula.
To avoid the leakage of the potion formula, the loss at that time will be far more than just a small amount.
"Such an uncooperative fellow."
Liang Shiqin's eyes showed helplessness. This guy really knows how to make trouble for her.
If Rhode really can't withstand the pressure from those capitals, she will have to find a way to bail this guy out.
After all, the problem she has is still inseparable from Rhode.
Moreover, even if she doesn't want to admit it, she does have a kind of indescribable special feeling for Rhode now.
Instinctively, she doesn't want this guy to die inexplicably like this. Just thinking about this happening makes her feel a little indescribably uncomfortable.
"Why would I feel uncomfortable if this guy died?"
Liang Shiqin tossed and turned with a puzzled expression, covering her body with the quilt.
She squeezed the quilt between her legs, rubbing them slightly.
Her face was flushed and hot.
Thinking about what happened before, she felt a burst of inexplicable throbbing in her heart, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to touch her chest.
Is this the feeling of love?
"Such a harmful bastard."
Arriving at the car, Rhode saw that Liu Yan had already fallen asleep, exhausted.
Glancing at her, he didn't feel strange.
After all, after experiencing so many shocks before, with the physique of an ordinary woman, she would have been exhausted long ago.
The fact that she could hold on until now was probably because she was too mentally excited, otherwise she would have fallen asleep long ago.
Rhode started the car, and Liu Yan woke up instantly upon hearing the movement.
Looking at Rhode next to her, she breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the time, and realized that two or three hours had passed.
What was this guy doing in the hospital for so long?
Thinking of this, Liu Yan couldn't help but curiously asked, "What were you doing just now?"
Rhode glanced at her upon hearing this and casually replied, "I went to discuss two deals worth hundreds of millions."
He wasn't lying to Liu Yan about this. After all, he did discuss two deals worth hundreds of millions with Liang Shiqin, except that they weren't in US dollars.
Of course, he also discussed an additional deal worth trillions.
Liu Yan's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Going out once and making hundreds of millions, as expected, she wasn't wrong. This guy is definitely a rich second-generation with a lot of money at home.
Thinking of this, Liu Yan immediately perked up, feeling as if the faintly painful parts of her body suddenly didn't hurt anymore.
In fact, if her body hadn't reached its limit, she would have squeezed him dry again, completely conquering this guy.
Rhode looked at Liu Yan's excited expression, didn't explain too much, and directly asked, "Where is your home?"
Liu Yan looked out the window upon hearing this and casually said, "I used to live at a friend's house. I don't have a home in the Lighthouse Country."
Rhode frowned upon hearing this, turned the car directly, and brought Liu Yan to a high-end hotel.
Liu Yan looked at the high-end hotel outside the car window and couldn't help but curiously asked, "What are you bringing me here for?"
Could it be that this guy is feeling it again?
Thinking of this, Liu Yan's face turned slightly pale.
She hasn't recovered yet. If it happens again, she doesn't know if she can handle it.
However, she couldn't refuse either.
What if she let go of this cash cow because of this?
Liu Yan hardened her heart. For the dream life of a wealthy lady, even if she was so swollen today that she couldn't get out of bed, she had to hold on.
Biting her lip and holding onto the bed... the pain is still better than going to work.
Looking at Liu Yan's expression as if she was facing death, Rhode next to her was a little baffled, but he still explained.
"You stay here for now. I bought a few houses, and they will be handed over in a while. I'll give you one then."
Liu Yan was stunned upon hearing this, and then her face was instantly filled with surprise.
Giving her a house as soon as they met, is this the treatment of a mistress in high society?
As expected, breaking up with Zhou Min, that poor loser, was the right thing to do. Following that loser, she wouldn't be able to afford a house in the Lighthouse Country for the rest of her life.
Looking at Liu Yan's excited expression, Rhode poured another bucket of cold water on her, saying faintly.
"It's not just for you alone. There's another mistress of mine, and she should be living there too when the time comes. You two have to get along well."
Another mistress?
Liu Yan was stunned upon hearing this. The house wasn't just for her alone, that's fine.
This guy actually has another mistress?
She thought she was this guy's only mistress.
