Chen Sisi smiled and said, "Uncle, I came to see you."
Old Xu replied, "I'm working here. You go home first, your aunt and grandmother are there."
Chen Sisi said with a smile, "Okay..." Then she saw Ye Tian not far away.
Ye Tian smiled at her. Chen Sisi's eyes lit up, and she quickly waved at him, "So you work here too!"
Old Xu quickly said, "Sisi, you know Boss Ye?"
Chen Sisi was stunned, "He's the boss?"
Old Xu said, "Yes. The medicinal field of my former boss was leased by Boss Ye. Boss Ye also gave me a raise, and my current income is higher than your cousin's."
Chen Sisi said, "Uncle, I'm going to talk to Boss Ye."
Old Xu smiled, "Sure, go ahead."
She trotted to the edge of the field and said with a smile, "Boss Ye, thank you!" Da Feng Novel Network
Ye Tian said, "You're welcome. So you're Old Xu's relative, I should help you even more."
Chen Sisi smiled, "Boss Ye, why are you growing so many herbs, are you selling them wholesale?"
Ye Tian replied, "I have my own pharmaceutical factory, and these are all raw materials."
Chen Sisi asked, "Do you need help?"
"Thanks, there's too much mud in the field, you shouldn't come in," Ye Tian waved his hand.
However, Chen Sisi had already taken off her shoes and walked in barefoot, smiling, "It's okay, I often work in the fields."
Seeing that she had already come in, Ye Tian said, "Alright then, I'll mark the medicinal plants, and you just need to pull out the weeds around them, leaving a radius of thirty-five centimeters clear."
Chen Sisi nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Ye Tian held a handful of red short ropes. When he found a mutated medicinal material, he tied the rope to it, and Chen Sisi was responsible for clearing the plants.
After working for an hour, Ye Tian saw that Chen Sisi's forehead was already sweating and said, "Let's take a break. I have food in my car."
Chen Sisi smiled upon hearing this, "Okay."
Old Xu saw this scene and smiled, saying, "Boss Ye, Sisi, wash your hands first."
He brought water and placed it in front of the car, and the two washed their hands.
Ye Tian had brought a lot of food in his car, all prepared by Lin Ziyi, including seven or eight kinds of fruits and some appetizing snacks.
Chen Sisi had driven from Zhonghai to Haicheng and then worked in the fields for another hour. She was already hungry. Without being polite, she grabbed an apple and started eating.
Ye Tian brewed a pot of tea and chatted with Chen Sisi while drinking. Chen Sisi worked in Zhonghai as a senior white-collar worker, earning twenty to thirty thousand yuan a month, with a fast-paced life. She lost her parents when she was young and was raised by her grandmother. Her uncle and aunt also doted on her. Now that she was working, she visited her grandmother and uncle's family whenever she had time.
"Boss Ye, your medicinal materials must be quite precious."
Ye Tian's heart stirred, and he asked, "Why do you think so?"
Chen Sisi said, "When I came here just now, I met a few people. They were speaking Japanese and asking me what kind of medicinal materials were planted in the medicinal fields here."
Ye Tian narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure they were Japanese?"
Chen Sisi replied, "I'm sure."
Ye Tian asked, "What did you tell them?"
Chen Sisi said, "I said there are many medicinal fields here, and they grow a lot of medicinal materials."
Ye Tian asked, "What else did they ask?"
Chen Sisi replied, "They didn't ask anything further. Instead, they communicated in Japanese, thinking I wouldn't understand. Actually, I took Japanese as an elective in college and know what they were saying."
Ye Tian became interested, "What did they say?"
Chen Sisi explained, "One of the Japanese men with a mustache said he had reliable information that a patch of medicinal fields nearby belonged to Baozhi Company, and that the extraordinary efficacy of Baozhi Company's products might be related to the medicinal materials here. Then another person said that the medicinal fields should be nearby, and they just needed to inquire from house to house to find out."
Ye Tian remained calm and continued to ask, "Which direction did they go?"
Chen Sisi replied, "They went in the other direction. It will probably take a long time for them to reach our place."
Regarding Baozhi Company, Ye Tian had not even told Old Xu, and had also asked Luo Gensheng to keep it confidential. The fact that the Japanese could investigate to this extent strongly suggested that the information was leaked by someone from within Baozhi Company's pharmaceutical factory.
