It was almost evening when he arrived at Binzhou Pharmaceutical Factory No. 1, just in time for the workers of the pharmaceutical factory to get off work. But looking at the group of aunts chatting animatedly and the dilapidated factory area, Wang Yue couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Now , I guess few people remember that Binzhou has its own pharmaceutical factory, right? Once upon a time, this was also a star foreign exchange-earning enterprise.
A deputy chief of the technical department received Wang Yue and Chen Xi with some reluctance. If it weren't for the trial production fee, they wouldn't have accepted such an inexplicable order. Penicillin for bullshit beasts, and from an "umbrella company". Aren't they just movie props? How many can be used? Why make it so complicated? If I just give you some expired medicines, can't you label them yourself?
And that first aid kit, do you know movies or technology? The first aid kit from the "Umbrella Company" sounds like a high-tech product. But the first aid kit you ordered is not of high quality at all. It’s just a piece of junk that even the black uncles in the third world don’t know how to use.
Especially the Siret morphine hypodermic syringe in the first aid kit? Just kidding, who uses that in the 21st century? Besides, can you buy morphine on a large scale in China?
When he saw the penicillin samples prepared by the pharmaceutical factory, Wang Yue was disappointed at the first moment, because no matter whether it was 20,000 units or 50,000 units, he could not carry it. What was going on? Unwilling to give up, he soon discovered The problem is that the aluminum skin of the bottle cap is too thin, only 0.006 mm in diameter. It couldn't be made in 1940.
Sure enough, after tearing off the aluminum skin, the 20,000 units of penicillin can be brought over. It seems that with the technical level of 1940, even the laboratory cannot purify 100,000 units of penicillin. If you want to bring it with you, It will take several years before 100,000 units of penicillin are available.
"Why not use 0.02 aluminum foil? Chen Xi, didn't you ask for it?" Wang Yue asked with some displeasure. Of course, he was more blaming the pharmaceutical company.
"The 0.02mm aluminum skin is not available on the market now. It needs to be customized. There may not be enough time, so I used the off-the-shelf 0.006mm aluminum skin." The deputy section chief explained with some embarrassment. Although the other party gave a lot of money, but They really don't pay enough attention to it and are a little confused. As for what is not on the market, it is nonsense. This is not a high-tech product and can be made by any small factory.
"It's not filled with salt, right?" Wang Yue naturally sensed this guy's guilty conscience, so he stared at the medicinal powder in the bottle playfully.
"No, no, it's definitely 20,000 units of penicillin potassium salt. We made it with laboratory equipment and tested it." The other party replied quickly. At this time, he was really worried that the other party would take advantage of them and demand a refund. Really In that case, the matter would be serious and the money would have been spent long ago. What would you do to get rid of it?
"How much does this 20,000-unit unit cost?" Wang Yue ignored the deputy section chief. Through brain wave examination, he knew that he was telling the truth and saved the patient.
"It's the same as the 4 million units we produce, and they cost 6 cents each, but you have to buy at least 100 boxes." The deputy section chief replied quickly, obviously wanting Wang Yue to stop worrying about the aluminum foil protective cover.
"Penicillin, Umbrella Company, 20,000 units, don't tell me that the packaging is quite retro." Wang Yue looked at the simple label on the bottle. Wang Yue was also amazed. The label was still a little yellowed.
"According to the order requirements, we use second-class newsprint, printed with a mimeograph machine. If you smell it, there is still the smell of ink!" This tone was already a bit flattering. Chen Xi looked aside with a look of disdain. This deputy section chief, when he came to the pharmaceutical factory, I felt that he was a bit unreliable, and sure enough, he was a bit unreliable.
"Then I'll bring you a thousand boxes, but you have to do it as required. You can't fool around with it, and there can't be any other messy things." Wang Yue nodded and said casually, even 20,000 units of penicillin over there in 1940 was not worth it. It must be effective. If possible, just use more. You must know that the bald eagle could only produce 100,000 units of penicillin at the beginning, and it would have to wait until 1943.
"One thousand, box?" The deputy section chief was stunned. For this thing, you still want a million? What are you coming for? Beat the chicken? Isn’t a bucket of penicillin powder that costs several hundred yuan delicious?
"One thousand boxes, but what must be written into the contract is that the product must meet the specifications, otherwise ten times the compensation will be required!" Wang Yue actually said this to Chen Xi. He was really worried that these guys were fooling him.
"Okay, Wang Chu." Chen Xi responded immediately.
"Aren't you from the Umbrella Company?" The deputy section chief was so excited at that time, director? Are you kidding me, such a young director?
"This is Comrade Wang Yue, the director of our Libby Country Office of Binzhou Rural Commercial Bank. As for the 'umbrella company', it is also Comrade Wang's company. It is inconvenient to disclose the details here." Chen Xi briefly explained mysteriously, and He also handed his work permit to the other party.
"It turns out it's Director Wang and Director Chen. It's really a pleasure to meet you. I was blind and neglected just now. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The deputy section chief looked at Chen Xi's After getting the work permit, I quickly apologized. In general, the director of an enterprise is not a big deal, but the bank is different, and the one who can give you an order is even more different.
"Our customer is in a hurry. How long will it take to deliver the goods?" Wang Yue changed the topic. He understood what Chen Xi meant. He was just worried that the other party would not pay attention to his order.
"Three days, at most three days will be enough." The deputy section chief quickly replied, for an order of hundreds of thousands, even if the profit is lower, it will still be at least half of the net profit.
"Okay, this is the first aid kit you developed?" Wang Yue nodded, then picked up a small canvas bag next to him and opened it. Inside was an aluminum box, which is used to prevent pressure. Medicines in glass bottles are easy to carry. If it was crushed, first aid kits usually have such a box. During World War II, they used copper and brass. Wang Yue thought it was unnecessary, so he asked them to use aluminum directly. It is cheap and light, and it is a consumable. Don't tell me. This box is quite beautifully made.
"This is a military-grade first aid kit that we produced in strict accordance with the contract requirements. Although it doesn't look big, it contains sterile gauze, elastic bandages, quick-acting hemostatic powder, iodine, sulfonamide powder, and two hypodermic syringes of Siret Morphine. This The Siret morphine hypodermic syringe is specially customized by us. It contains 32ml of morphine, which is almost the same as the original one, and the medicine bottles are all made of glass bottles, which are quick-acting hemostatic powder. We did not get the formula of Bald Eagle in the 1940s, so we used it directly. The 'Yunnan Baiyao Powder' produced by our factory, don't worry, it is definitely not expired. "It's embarrassing again, but since the other party is really likely to place an order, you have to explain it clearly. The deputy section chief's face turned red at this time .
"Morphine, if you want to export it, is there no problem with the procedure?" Wang Yue scanned it and found that it could be taken to 1940. There is no big problem.
"No problem, no problem, we are a formal enterprise with complete procedures."
"How much does one cost?" Wang Yue asked next.
"Fifteen, no, twelve. If it's more than 100,000, it's ten yuan each." The deputy section chief felt that he was a bit worthless. What's going on? It's just an order. It's not like there were no glory days when the factory was brilliant. As for the price, Everything here is actually in stock, just the price of packaging materials and labor. You can make money no matter how much you sell. If we don't sell it, the inventory will probably expire.
"Just one million of this quality!" Wang Yue said nothing nonsense. This thing is a consumable. If you get one million over there in 1940, it will be used up in a short time. If you pay ten yuan each, it will be enough. Maybe save a life.
"Okay, no problem. Don't worry, Chief Wang, there is absolutely no problem!" The deputy section chief was trembling when he spoke. He has been producing raw materials and veterinary drugs for many years, and he can finally make something serious. What happened to the "Umbrella Company"? , that is also a regular export product.
"How much does your factory's sulfa powder cost now?" Wang Yue thought about the recognition of penicillin there in 1940, so he wanted to buy some more sulfa powder. The market for this stuff is still very big there, and there are The price is unmarketable, and you can’t even buy it if you want to. The veterinary medicines I bought in Libya several times before are actually produced domestically. Instead of doing that, I might as well buy more at once.
"27 yuan per kilogram. They are all polyethylene vacuum-packed and placed in aluminum barrels. Each barrel is 10 kilograms and has a shelf life of three years. If it needs to be divided into small bottles, we can also do it." The deputy section chief quickly reported one The lowest price within my authority. The price of raw materials for this thing has increased in the past few years. If it were before, it would be cheaper.
"Ten thousand barrels!" Wang Yue placed the order readily. He had system space, and the flow of time there was stationary. There was no risk of expiration if the medicines were stored in it. If he hadn't been worried about scaring the other party, he would have I plan to buy more. This is hard currency, something more expensive than gold. 33
"No problem, this can be delivered tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow!" the deputy section chief said hurriedly, but in his heart he was thinking about thanking his section chief. If that guy hadn't been in the hospital all year round, this would be such a good thing. It's not my turn, just one hour, there are only so many orders.
"Does your factory also produce surgical equipment? I remember hearing someone say that when I was a child." Zhang Wanhe mentioned it when Wang Yue went to northwest Shanxi last time, hoping that he could produce some medical equipment. The base area is really in short supply, not to mention surgical equipment, even syringes and stethoscopes are in short supply. Wang Yue also tried to find it in Libi Country before, but couldn't find it. The process, materials, and design had been iterated many times. However, Chen Xi helped him find a batch of syringes, needles, etc. in stock, but he just had that. The stuff doesn’t work either.
"We have the production qualifications, but the equipment and technology are from the 1940s, a legacy from the Japanese occupation period. The workshops have been out of production for almost 40 years." The deputy section chief hesitated. He really wanted to comply, but he couldn't. Ah, as for those equipments, even if they can be started after maintenance, they don't need workers. His father is from the equipment workshop. He is almost 80 this year. We can't let a group of old men organize production.
"Chen Xi, check the situation of that workshop and see if it can be produced again. I will provide samples at that time. If not, look for other factories to see if they can produce it." Wang Yue is still alive. Heart, medical equipment was also at sky-high prices there in 1940, and he was really unwilling to let precious metals and foreign exchange flow to the hands of foreign devils in vain.
"Okay, Chief Wang." Chen Xi responded, yes, he has to buy medical equipment again. It seems that he needs to recruit a few more helpers. The current number of people in the company is really not enough.
Some people died, but not completely...
