"The last research project has been stopped due to lack of financial support," Liu Kai said helplessly.

Afterwards, Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu looked at each other and nodded to each other.

Then He Yuzhu said, "Mr. Liu, I have an idea for you. I have set up a special laboratory for you to do research. I wonder if you can work for our company."

"You mean to let me go into the sea?"

"Yes, please do research on beverages for our company",

"I need to think about it. This news is too sudden." Although Liu Kai was somewhat tempted, he did not want to give up his job in the system.

“You can think about it slowly,”

"By the way, I've tried the drink you researched before, and it tastes pretty good."

"I wonder what's inside?" He Yuzhu really liked the fruity scent mixed with the smell of tea.

"That's a drink I made with oolong tea and fruit," Liu Kai said proudly.

"I don't know whether the patent belongs to the country or to you personally," He Yuzhu nodded when he heard that the drink was called Oolong Tea, and then asked about the patent issue.

"That was something I researched when I was bored, and it has nothing to do with the country," Liu Kai looked at He Yuzhu with some confusion.

"Our company has decided to purchase your drink. How much do you want?" He Yuzhu asked.

This question stumped Liu Kai. As a researcher who only focused on research work, he had no knowledge of patent acquisition, so he didn't know how much it would cost. So he threw the question to He Yuzhu.

"Mr. He, this drink is the product of my research. Please give it to me as you like."

He Yuzhu was speechless when he saw the scholar-looking man in front of him. Even if he tried to bargain down the price sincerely, he probably wouldn't get much. After all, it was something developed by someone else, and the taste was quite good to He Yuzhu's taste. If it was made into a beverage and sold, it would definitely be very popular.

"20. We will buy the patent of your beverage for 20," He Yuzhu said a number.

"How much? 20." Liu Kai was shocked by the number and gestured with two fingers.

"Yes, it's 20. I think your research results are worth this price," He Yuzhu nodded.

"I've sold it, Mr. He. I've decided to work for your laboratory," Liu Kai thought for a moment and said seriously.

"Why did you agree so readily? Don't you want to think about it?" Lou Xiao'e, who had been silent for a long time, asked curiously.

"To be honest, I was short of 20 yuan for my research, but there was no funding from above. Now you've given me yuan for just one patent."

"Then why should I hesitate? After all, research is research no matter where you are."

"And with this 20 yuan, I can settle my family down and concentrate on my research work," Liu Kai said with some emotion.

"I don't know how Mr. Liu got into the beverage research industry," After agreeing on the acquisition of the beverage patent, several people began chatting.

"I just look at the beverages on the market. Although there are many varieties, the best-selling ones are foreign brands such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi."

"I was a little bit dissatisfied, so I planned to develop a drink for our country. In addition, I loved drinking soda when I was a child, but my family was poor and couldn't afford it."

"I often tinker with things like soda, and gradually I went further and further down this path. The drink you bought was my first finished product, but unfortunately no one was interested in it until I met you."

"Mr. Liu, cooperate with our company. You will definitely develop a beverage that can compete with Pepsi and Coca-Cola and prevent them from acting recklessly in China," He Yuzhu encouraged him.

"Thank you, Mr. He. I wonder when I can report to your company." I don't know if it's because of the 20 yuan, but Liu Hai now looks a little excited.

"How about this, our company's address is here. You can report in after you have finished all your work," Lou Xiao'e said as she handed Liu Kai a business card and told him that he could report in at any time.

Watching Liu Kai's receding back, He Yuzhu felt a little emotional and thought about how many talents were buried in this era. If he hadn't come, he didn't know when this drink would be available on the market.

"It seems that Brother He likes that drink very much, otherwise why would he pay 20 yuan to buy the patent," said Lou Xiao'e.

"You are wrong. The price of 20 is not high. It can generate 200 million or even hundreds of millions of profits for us," He Yuzhu said, shaking his head.

Lou Xiao'e didn't expect that He Yuzhu said he could sell a beverage for hundreds of millions. However, judging from the performance of the things He Yuzhu sold on a daily basis, he was not bragging about anything.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. How is the water source being handled?"

"Brother He, our people went to the water source you gave us and tested the water quality. It fully meets the standards for drinking water,"

"I have started negotiations with the local government to build a modern plant there to produce natural water,"

"I just don't know what it's called,"

"Let's call it Hurricane, named after our company. I've even thought of the slogan: We don't produce water, we're just nature's porters," He Yuzhu decided to borrow the slogan of a water plant.

"What about packaging? Even though our factory hasn't been built yet, we have to begin the advance preparations," Lou Xiao'e asked curiously. He Yuzhu had actually thought of an advertising slogan for a brand that didn't even have a company.

"How about we take Transformers, our most popular cartoon at the moment, and the Digimon series, and package them into a series. After all, they are our own companies, so we should keep the wealth within the family," Lou Xiao'e continued.

"No, we have to make the water packaging into the most common pattern, simple, but the quality of the mineral water bottle must be good, and it shouldn't be easily deflated by a pinch," He Yuzhu recalled. Some of the mineral water bottles in his previous life were like a layer of plastic paper, which greatly affected the appearance quality of the product.

"Okay, I'll contact Hong Kong right away to get the equipment done."

"I'll leave the construction of the factory to you. After all, I don't have any acquaintances in the mainland," Lou Xiao'e quickly made arrangements.

"No, you are not planning to return to Hong Kong. What will happen to Hurricane Group's Hong Kong company?" He Yuzhu asked when he saw that Lou Xiao'e had no plans to return to Hong Kong for several days.

"Yes, I will be back in a while. I have to go back to preside over the relocation of the company."

"But once the new company is built, I plan to stay in the mainland permanently and set up a Hong Kong branch to handle Hong Kong issues," Lou Xiao'e said nonchalantly. It seemed that she had planned it long ago.
