Everyone couldn't help being surprised when they saw that Li Qiang just sniffed his nose gently and then accurately named the medicine. Even Dong Jianchang, who was always looking like an old monk in trance, couldn't help but look sideways at him.
After a long while, Kong Xiangxi nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is indeed very knowledgeable. Yes, it is the special miracle medicine produced in Yunnan, the Wanying Baibao Dan."
Fan Shaozeng stared with a pair of bull's eyes and said with disbelief: "How do you know the name of this medicine? I clearly..."
Before he finished speaking, Du Yuesheng on the side snorted and scolded with a smile: "You bastard, do you know what kind of business Mr. Li's family does? He started out in the pharmaceutical business! You use this to test him.
Aren’t you just playing tricks on your class!”
"Ah? That's it, I'm telling you!"
In fact, how did they know that even if they did not have this level of background, they would never guess wrong, because Li Qiang was so familiar with the magical medicine called Wanying Baibao Dan, and it was widely circulated by later generations.
It is a miracle drug used to treat injuries caused by falls, debridement and reduce inflammation. Of course, it also has a more well-known name - Yunnan Baiyao!
The reason why this medicine is praised as a well-deserved miracle medicine by later generations is that in addition to its miraculous effects of removing blood stasis and stopping bleeding, activating blood circulation and relieving pain, detoxifying and reducing swelling, the more important point is that this medicine is made from a large number of precious medicinal materials.
The price of the medicine is very close to the people, and it is the kind of good medicine that ordinary people can afford.
Of course, this is all a story for later.
However, at this moment, Dong Jianchang suddenly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth, and said lightly: "Minister Kong is indeed the richest man in the Republic of China. This Wanying Baibao Dan is sold at Qushi Pharmacy
The price per bottle is 20 French currency, which is six Hong Kong dollars when shipped to Hong Kong. But on the black market, it costs five pounds. Nowadays, one pound is equivalent to 4.3 US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 3,000 French currency. That is to say
, even if the cost of transportation labor and other factors are taken into account, if you transport a bottle of medicine to Hong Kong, you will get nearly 500 times the profit. In other words, as soon as Minister Kong opens his mouth, you can enjoy 500 times the profit without doing anything.
The profit return, even as the display becomes more and more intense, these drugs will naturally increase, and the profits by then will most likely be far more than this, and this money is too good to make!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed. Fan Shaozeng and Du Yuesheng's faces were full of surprise. Perhaps they had never thought that Dong Jianchang would know so much about medicines before.
Li Qiang and Haitang were more in disbelief that Kong Xiangxi, who was also the President of the Executive Yuan and Minister of Finance, could so openly join forces with the military and gangs for smuggling, taking advantage of the war to make a fortune in the country.
As for Wu Fangzhi, he had never seen such a scene before, and he was immediately frightened.
Only Kong Xiangxi still smiled and said to Dong Jianchang: "Old Dong, there are some things that can be tacitly understood, why do you need to put them all in the open?"
Dong Jianchang snorted, "Really? I think it's better to make it clear in the open, so as not to argue with each other in the future and cause trouble!"
"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll be the master once and share an extra 10% of your profits, how about that?"
However, before he finished speaking, Fan Shaozeng couldn't help but interjected: "What? Give them an extra 10%? Then we..."
"Old Fan! You can't be too greedy when doing business. Without Chief Dong's nod, no matter how good the business is, you can't do it, right?" Fan Shaozeng wanted to say something else, but Du Yuesheng stopped him in time, and then he noticed Kong Xiangxi's face.
He had lost his smile in the morning and could not help but shrink his neck and stopped talking.
However, Dong Jianchang did not speak. After being silent for a long time, he slowly picked up the wine glass and toasted Kong Xiangxi with a glass of wine, which was regarded as his acquiescence.
Kong Xiangxi's face looked better now, and then he turned to look at Li Qiang, his eyes eagerly waiting for his final answer.
Li Qiang had already made up his mind. He picked up the small porcelain vase and replied with a half-smile: "Master Kong, if you stand from a personal standpoint, I will naturally agree without hesitation, but if... you have to talk about the conditions.
Already."
"You brat, you..."
"Old Fan!" Fan Shaozeng had just started, but was stopped by Du Yuesheng again. He didn't know the reason, but Du Yuesheng knew it very well. Although on the surface, Li Qiang was trying to raise the price, which was very unkind.
, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that his condition is actually for Zhou Fohai.
"What conditions? Mr. Li just says it's okay!" Kong Xiangxi replied calmly.
Li Qiang immediately asked, "Simple, just give me as much as you give to Chief Dong."
"No, two people want to take away 60% of the profits. How do you want us to divide the rest?"
This time, Du Yuesheng did not stop him. At the same time, he frowned somewhat displeasedly and glanced at Kong Xiangxi.
The latter did not express his position immediately, but after pondering for a long time, he said: "Mr. Li, look at this, how about I share 20% of your profits?"
"sure!"
As soon as these words came out, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Li Qiang suddenly changed the subject, "But Mr. Kong, I believe you also know that the higher the profit, the greater the risk. In the first half of this journey,
Commander Fan and Chief Dong are still there to take care of you, but don’t forget, if you want to send this batch of medicines to Hong Kong, you still have to go through a hellish gate! As long as Mr. Kong promises that even if something goes wrong, he will not pursue it, then don’t
It's a 20% profit, even if you only share 10% of my profit, it won't make any sense."
Threat! Naked threat!
You must know that the reason why Kong Xiangxi wanted to bring Li Qiang in was to ensure the safety of this last hurdle, but in the end, it became his capital to threaten himself. What's more terrible is that he can't bargain with him, otherwise the batch of
10,000% of the goods will go wrong. Let alone 30% profit by then, I'm afraid I won't even see 10%!
Even Fan Shaozeng could hear this and almost fell out on the spot.
In fact, not only him, but also Du Yuesheng and Kong Xiangxi on the side felt a little angry in their hearts. Only Dong Jianchang was still immersed in eating and drinking, but the corners of his mouth were raised unconsciously without any expression.
, as if everything has nothing to do with him.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time, and then Kong Xiangxi turned to look at Dong Jianchang and discussed it very politely: "Mr. Dong, for the sake of our colleagues and fellow countrymen, and besides, we are also supporting the Anti-Japanese War,
So this time, how about sharing 25% of your profits?"
Kong Xiangxi was indeed a veteran politician and businessman, and his calculations were shrewd. Seeing that there was no room for turning around on Li Qiang's side, he immediately turned around and started making trouble on Dong Jianchang's side.
Don't you insist on sharing the same amount as Dong Jianchang? Well, I will find a way to lower his share and see what you have to say then.
On the other side, Dong Jianchang saw that Kong Xiangxi not only brought out the friendship between colleagues and fellow villagers in order to convince him, but even involved the situation of the Anti-Japanese War, he knew that Li Qiang's condition had already touched his bottom line, otherwise he would not be so complacent.
Talking to yourself like this in a demeaning manner.
Thinking of this, Dong Jianchang pondered for a moment, and then nodded as if he had to do something for the sake of the overall situation.
Kong Xiangxi was naturally relieved when he saw this, and then quickly looked at Li Qiang, "Mr. Li?"
Li Qiang was naturally worried that he would push them too hard and break up unhappy, so he nodded his head and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Kong, what a man says is like water thrown out, there is no possibility of changing it.
Even if Mr. Dong voluntarily reduces the share, my words will not change at all."
"Okay! If that's the case, it's settled! Come on, come on..." Kong Xiangxi called on everyone to pick up their wine glasses and said, "Let's do it!"
"Dry!"
After talking about the business, the atmosphere in the room returned to the peaceful atmosphere at the beginning, and the meal lasted from noon to evening.
When Li Qiang and Haitang returned to the guest house, they found a familiar figure waiting there for a long time.
"Brother Six? Why are you here?" Li Qiang couldn't help but said in surprise and joy when he saw the visitor.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Haitang beside him couldn't help laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" Li Qiang asked in confusion.
"It's nothing. I just saw you calling me Sixth Brother as soon as you opened your mouth. I subconsciously thought of that Xu Baichuan. If he knew about it, the expression on his face would be particularly interesting."
In fact, at the beginning, Li Qiang was very cold towards this sixth brother, who had a high reputation within the military. After all, in his opinion, Zheng Yaoxian was indeed capable and his adaptability was first-rate, but he was still an excellent agent.
It was not until the incident that he and Xu Baichuan were forced to hide in the sewer and rely on an apple to escape death in order to avoid being hunted by the Japanese and puppet spies that their views on him had a thorough understanding.
After a change of perspective, I also understood the reason why his reputation within the military system was so high.
However, Zheng Yaoxian was not in a hurry to explain his purpose. It was not until he entered the room and sat down that he asked thoughtfully: "Brother Aqiang, how are you? The farewell wine given by Minister Kong must be extraordinary, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang subconsciously narrowed his eyes and replied word by word: "Brother Six, we are all so familiar with each other. Please just say what you want to say. There is no need to go around in such a big circle."
"Okay, since Brother Aqiang is so quick to speak, I will say it directly." At this point, Zheng Yao paused for a moment, then cautiously glanced at the door to confirm that no one was eavesdropping, then lowered his voice and continued.
He said, "I want you to give me a portion of the batch of Baibao Dan that you plan to smuggle into Hong Kong. I wonder, Brother Aqiang, would you be willing?"
"I didn't expect you, Brother Six, to be quite well-informed. Why, do you want to get a share of the pie? Or..."
To be honest, in Li Qiang's impression, Zheng Yaoxian was by no means a guy who was jealous of money, so when he made his request, Li Qiang's first reaction was Dai Li. Could it be that Dai Li was jealous after seeing this deal, but
Due to the bad relationship with the Kong family, you went through such a big circle and secretly sent Zheng Yao over first?
Zheng Yaoxian listened and quickly explained: "Brother Aqiang, this is completely my personal idea. You... you must not think about it in other ways!"
However, the more Zheng Yaoxian said this, the more Li Qiang became sure that Dai Li wanted him to come over, so he didn't say anything and lowered his voice and replied: "How much do you want to share?"
"Twenty boxes."
"Twenty boxes? That's a total of 40,000 bottles! What do you need so much medicine for?"
Not wanting to hear this, Zheng Yaoxian's face turned slightly red and he asked nonchalantly: "Brother Aqiang, do you believe in love at first sight?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Li Qiang, but also Haitang opened his eyes with a gossipy look and looked over curiously.
"Brother Six, don't forget, Boss Dai has clearly stipulated that during the Anti-Japanese War, marriage within the military is strictly prohibited unless there are special circumstances. If you violate it, you will be subject to family law!"
However, Zheng Yaoxian curled his lips, "Rules? Aren't rules also made by people? Apart from other things, wasn't the marriage of you two specially approved by Boss Dai?"
With just one sentence, Li Qiang was speechless. After all, what he said was right and it was a fact. There was really nothing to argue with.
Just when the atmosphere in the room gradually fell into an awkward silence, Haitang took the initiative and asked: "Brother Six, what is the name of our future sister-in-law? Is she beautiful? What does she do?"
The word "sister-in-law" immediately made Zheng Yaoxian's expression return to normal, and he introduced her with almost no concealment, "Your future sister-in-law is called Cheng Zhen'er. As for appearance, I think it is no longer a question of whether she is beautiful or not.
She is really that kind of... that rare kind, with picturesque features, lively personality, and loves to laugh. In short... in short, she is very cute. Although she is only a small reporter
Member, but from the first moment I saw her, I knew that I, Mr. Zheng Yao, would never marry her in my life."
"Hey! Brother Six, I can't tell you're quite infatuated!" Haitang couldn't help but joked, "Then what's the attitude of the other party?"
"What other attitude could it be? Women are not all the same. They are obviously very happy in their hearts, but they act very cold."
"We've been making trouble for a long time. Sixth Brother, you haven't even finished your horoscope, and you're already making the best plans for marriage?"
"Then what's going on? Do you believe that I can catch her with just one more month?"
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang once again said with concern: "We all know about Sixth Brother's tricks, but the problem lies with Boss Dai."
"Brother Aqiang, you don't have to worry about this anymore."
"So Boss Dai nodded?"
"Of course, otherwise why do you think I was sent to Xifeng Xingyuan to reflect on my past?"
"That's right! After hearing what you said, I remembered, why did you come out of Xifeng Xingyuan?"
Zheng Yaoxian chuckled, "Of course Boss Dai discovered the back-up plan I had left. Let me tell you the truth! That Cheng Zhen'er is not the radio operator of the Military Command, but the operator of the Central Command!"
