Mi Wei nodded and said, “I belong to a rural village in the South.”
Chairman w.a.n.g felt that Mi Wei’s accent did not sound very southern. Since it was normal for villages to have their own dialects, Chairman w.a.n.g was completely unsuspecting of his accent. “Have you always been in the business of cultivating herbs?”
Mi Wei pondered briefly with a sentimental look on his face. Then, he gathered his thoughts and answered. “Yes, I have. I have been doing Chinese herb cultivation all my life.”
Chairman w.a.n.g’s eyes lit up. “From the looks of it, you have no problem cultivating mi orchid.”
“Uh huh.” Mi Wei smiled slightly with a confident look on his face.
Mi Wei was not the bragging sort, but he was able to cultivate any Chinese herbs he wanted.
a.s.sistant w.a.n.g came back and placed a small box on the table in front of Mi Wei.
“This is to help soothe your throat. You just have to suck it. I am sure it will help with your cough,” explained Chairman w.a.n.g.
Mi Wei looked at the box for two seconds before opening it and placing the tablet in his mouth.
“How do you feel? Does your throat feel better?” asked Chairman w.a.n.g moments later.
Mi Wei cleared his throat. He had a straightforward personality. Since Chairman w.a.n.g was so kind as to offer him medication, he went quiet briefly before he said, “It’s not bad.”
a.s.sistant w.a.n.g glanced at him secretly.
Not bad?
Did he not know this medication was produced by a member of the a.s.sociation? It was far higher end than any other cough medication in the market.
Chairman w.a.n.g paid no attention to Mi Wei’s words. All he could think about was Mi Wei’s ability to cultivate mi orchid. He promptly told his a.s.sistant to fetch an employment contract.
After the a.s.sistant came back with the employment contract, Chairman w.a.n.g told Mi Wei to take a look at it. “I don’t mind giving you a 0.001% bonus. I just need you to ensure that certain rare herbs can be cultivated regularly.
Mi Wei looked at the first page of the doc.u.ment and quickly put it down. He raised his head and looked at Chairman w.a.n.g and responded. “I think you are mistaken. I don’t mind helping you cultivate rare herbs, but it does not mean I am going to sell myself and work on your farm.”
Chairman w.a.n.g was stunned. He clarified immediately. “You are not selling yourself. It is just a normal employment contract.”
Mi Wei shook his head as he waved his tobacco pipe and said, “I do not like taking orders from people.”
He did not like following rules.
Chairman w.a.n.g caught what Mi Wei meant. He pondered over it and replied. “How about this? We will determine your fees based on the rarity of the herbs cultivated. You will also teach my men how to cultivate herbs. I will pay you the same bonuses you asked for. Is it a deal?”
“Let me think.” Mi Wei rubbed his tobacco pipe. He automatically retrieved more tobacco from his pocket. Soon, the smell of the tobacco wafted in the air. A slight hint of herbs could be smelled as well.
Chairman w.a.n.g glanced at the tobacco in his hand.
Before long, Mi Wei stopped adding tobacco to his pipe and suppressed his urge to smoke. He placed the tobacco back inside his pocket and nodded to Chairman w.a.n.g. “Fine. It’s a deal then.”
Since it would not affect his manhunt, he did not mind making some money from the deal.
Now that Mi Wei had agreed to work for the a.s.sociation, Chairman w.a.n.g said, “Our Chinese herb farm is located in City Huai. The earth and climate there is perfect for planting Chinese herbs. When can you go over, Mi Wei?”
“Anytime.” Mi Wei spoke without hesitation.
“In that case, I will make arrangements soon,” said Chairman w.a.n.g.
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Mi Wei. Then, he remembered something and asked. “Is there internet connectivity at that place?”.
