This chapter opens with a conversation between a former soldier and his son. The soldier, named Liu xiqi, tells his son, named yiyun, that he was discharged three years ago from the army and that he is happy to see his son alive. He also tells the boy that his father, named Mr. Guozhong, saved him from being killed by enemy soldiers during a battle in the mountains. The two men are now brothers in arms. Liu and his wife have recently set up a medical products company and have tried a new product called "guyuan wine," but it has been blocked from the market. They have tried another product, which they believe to be the same product, but the product has not been approved by the company's boss. The pharmacist of the company has also tried the new product, and has found that one of the ingredients in the product is a "element honing pill." The brothers are confident that they can defeat the young master of the family.
