Liu Guoshou waved his hand and said: "There is no need to worry about this matter. Nowadays, we are the largest pharmaceutical factory in Beijing. With the current inventory, we can still build momentum and sell it at a high price. When it is out of stock, people will chase after it and buy it.
I’m even more thinking about buying it. When we re-list it and the price goes up again, I won’t let the losses in these three months go to waste.”
Princess Huiping laughed evilly, "Yes, those common people are just being cheap and swallowing and selling. They don't care about it. When the goods are gone, they will know that it is precious. It's my father's foresight."
Liu Guoshou smiled slightly, "When doing business, you have to make far-reaching plans. We are businessmen, and our interests are the most important. As for other things..." His eyes were cold, "It is not within our scope of consideration."
Huiping agrees very much. What does the life and death of those people have to do with her?
Businessmen value profits, this is the essence of business.
At the same time, Fourth Master Leng's pharmaceutical factory is already in full swing, and rich people can do things very fast.
However, pharmaceutical refining requires formulating prescriptions, and refining medicine also takes time. It is difficult to quickly market and seize the market. In other words, it may not be possible to do it within three months, but they cannot control the medicinal materials market for too long.
.
After all, he is the Fourth Master. From a purely business perspective, no one can surpass him.
In addition to his own pharmaceutical factory, he also spent money to purchase a pharmaceutical factory in Zhili, using their time-honored brand Hexingtang, and then promoted it to the outside world, saying that the prescriptions for these patent medicines were written by the old lady of Daxing.
In the next few days, the princes, nobles and ladies in the capital were all discussing a medicine, which was Xiaoyao Pills refined by Hexingtang. They said that the princess had been taking these medicines over the years, and that the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine in the palace were all discussing.
Princess Huai is also taking it. This medicine has miraculous effects on women.
The fact that the Crown Princess gave birth to five sons in a row has long been known to the world. The Imperial Concubine gave birth to pearls from old clams, and the Princess had not been pregnant for many years. In order to get pregnant, she tried all kinds of methods. Many people in the capital knew this, but I heard
It is said that she has been taking Hexingtang's Xiaoyao Pills for the past few months, so is it because of the Xiaoyao Pills that she was able to get pregnant this time?
In this way, Hexingtang's Xiaoyao Pills were already widely known in the streets before they were widely sold in Beijing.
The fourth master agreed very much with Liu Guoshou's strategy of stocking up goods for sale. In fact, Liu Guoshou copied his old business methods. Although Hexingtang Xiaoyao Pills have not yet been launched on the market, news has spread.
The refining method of this medicine is different, so not many finished products are released every month. If you want to buy it, you have to order it first. If it is in stock, you can buy it. If it is not in stock, you have to wait. As for how long you have to wait, it is about three months.
.
After the new pharmaceutical factory was put into production, the old lady did change the prescription and called it Danzhi Xiaoyao Wan, adding paeonol bark and gardenia. It has the effect of clearing away heat and cooling blood, and is suitable for patients with qi stagnation and symptoms of internal heat, especially those with symptoms of internal heat.
For patients with liver qi stagnation, the curative effect is the best.
Xiaoyao Pill is mostly taken by women to treat women's yin deficiency, cold palace, and insufficiency of qi and blood. Anyone with these diseases usually suffers from blood stasis and strong liver fire, so this medicine is safer and more effective.
Naturally, this recipe was strictly kept secret to prevent Huiping from learning it.
At this time, the price of Xiaoyao Pills sold by Huiping Pharmaceutical Factory increased, so naturally no one bought it.
Huiping was very angry when she learned that a new pharmaceutical factory had been opened in Beijing. She ordered people to investigate who was the boss behind it.
I looked at the people in Prince Chu's palace, but found that no one went to the pharmaceutical factory.
As a last resort, she bribed the general judge of Jingzhao Mansion and asked him to investigate the information about the pharmaceutical factory. In the end, the boss behind the scenes came to light, and it turned out to be Princess Anfeng Luoman.
She was shocked, she didn't expect it was her.
Originally, she had planned to send people to destroy it after the investigation was completed, but if the pharmaceutical factory belonged to Princess Anfeng, she would absolutely not be able to do anything.
But she wondered, would Prince and Princess Anfeng open a pharmaceutical factory in Beijing?
If she doesn't come back all year round, who will manage this pharmaceutical factory?
She ordered people to investigate again and found that the person in charge of this pharmaceutical factory was called Miedi. Her identity and origin were completely unknown. However, this pharmaceutical factory had multiple offices in Beijing. If you want to order medicine, just go to the office and you have to pay half of the money.
For the money, write a receipt back and put a big seal on it. When the goods arrive, take the receipt to make up the balance.
She almost died when she heard this. Isn't this just a waste of money?
After taking half of the money from so many orders to make medicine, how much more does the boss need to pay?
She knows the cost of these patent medicines best, and the profits are huge. Half of the deposit has already been earned, not to mention the other half will be replenished when the time comes.
She was extremely anxious. At this time, she could not leave three months blank as she had thought before. She must refine the medicine, even if she did not have those few medicines, she still had to do it.
She quickly summoned the drug dealers and asked them to supply a large amount of medicinal materials. These drug dealers had previously stocked up a lot of medicines, and they would definitely not be able to sell them for the time being, so she asked the manager to negotiate and the price must be lowered. This batch of medicines was refined.
After the product was produced, she did not raise the price, but lowered the price and started a price war with them, so she had to strictly control the cost.
People are all greedy for small gains. As long as the price is lower than the other party's, they will definitely be able to retain customers.
Lowering prices is a waste of money, and she doesn't believe it can't be done by Hexingtang.
However, she didn't even have the chance to consume it. The housekeeper came back and told her that the medicine dealer's medicine had been distributed.
Huiping is not in a hurry, after all, the medicinal materials market is still within her control. Drug dealers cannot buy them here. At most, they are a little more expensive, so they purchase large quantities in the medicinal materials market.
The price of medicinal materials was previously driven up by the hoarding of medicinal farmers and some people deliberately pushed up the prices. As a result, the prices in the medicinal material market were also extremely high. And some people behind the scenes leaked out that Hexingtang was going to buy medicines on a large scale, and the prices became more favorable and even stabilized.
It has the tendency to grow taller and taller.
Huiping hated He Xingtang deeply. When she heard that they wanted to buy medicine in large quantities, she gritted her teeth and ordered, "Buy, buy them all. Scan as many as there are on the market. These medicines are moths."
Even if it becomes trendy, we can’t let them buy it.”
But she was also cautious in doing things, and asked someone to investigate who had sold the drugs to those drug dealers before. If Hexingtang took over, she would definitely not be able to sweep the goods again.
The manager went out to inquire about it, and came back to report that the medicine dealer had sold all the medicines to Hu Qingyun, the shopkeeper of the Dingfeng in Dazhou. Hu Qingyun had already transported the medicinal materials back to Dazhou, and the team had set off a few days ago.
Hu Qingyun was involved in all kinds of business in Beitang, but he was not involved in the medicinal materials business. Huiping was naturally more cautious. Fortunately, it was not difficult to find out this information. Since Beitang opened up for business with Zhou Dynasty, there have been many big names.
Zhou's caravan came over. Recently, the caravans were talking about the severe shortage of medicinal materials in Zhou Dynasty. It turned out that there was an epidemic during Qiuhu, and a large amount of medicinal materials was consumed, so they had to buy back from Beitang.
At this point, Huiping lost all vigilance and ordered people to sweep away drugs.
