45. Cooperation

"What's wrong?" Zuo Lin asked, "There's something wrong with that ointment?"

Samples of the ointment handed over to the military and national security were about two liters in total, and they were packed in dozens of tiny jars with antioxidant-lined aluminum shells and antioxidant linings, like cosmetics. The outer ring of the metal can is simply sprayed with a barcode, which looks aesthetically pleasing. Usually, the dosage of a jar of ointment is enough for a relatively large wound, and it is simply a matter of suturing it with a thread and applying the ointment. As for those small wounds, you can just pick a little ointment with your fingernails.

The ointment was sent by Yan Hokusai through a few of his friends to test the effect, only saying that Zuo Lin provided the planting method and formula, and was trying to produce it, hoping that the military and national security could give some advice. The ointments didn't get much attention at first, piled up in the refrigerator along with the other medicines that had been brought in for examination. Later, a researcher's dog in the laboratory was hit by a bicycle, and the researcher took a jar of ointment to use it, only to find that the ointment was extraordinary. Only then did the laboratory conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the functionality of these ointments. After using up about 10 jars of ointment for various tests, and then handing over the rest of the ointment to the commanders and fighters of the army for trial, the evaluation results of Tianxin Lotus ointment were finally settled. This result is quite surprising, experts generally believe that the effectiveness of this ointment is several times that of the same weight of Yunnan Baiyao, from the speed of the effect of the drug to exceed the army at the beginning of the installation of the quick-acting wound spray, not only that, Tianxin Lotus ointment also has a very good function of promoting body growth, repairing the damaged body, and the wound recovery speed is several times that of other drugs. These reports sort of removed the ointment from entering the equipment lists of military and intelligence field personnel, but the problem also arises: production.

Tsubame Hokusai has no bottom on the yield. The fully enclosed Tianxin lotus planting base is still under construction, and now it can only be cultivated in small quantities in the special greenhouse of the Agricultural Science Research Institute under the Shennong Group. Even if the construction of the planting base is completed, there is no regulation for the production process and the like, and a large production capacity will not be formed in a short time. In the end, Yan Hokusai gave a very conservative estimate, which is expected to supply 5,000 to 8,000 cans of Tianxin lotus ointment next year, and the purchase of relevant state parties will be supplied at a price of 550 yuan per can.

This figure can not satisfy anyone, Yan Hokusai in the old friend of the military on the phone shouted to Yan Hokusai to hand over 100,000 cans, 500 yuan a can at a fixed price, in order to speed up the construction of the planting base process, the military can even pay 40% of the money in advance. For the safety of field personnel, the national security side also threw out an order for 20,000 cans. Both parties promised that as long as Tsubame Hokusai made every effort to promote this matter, they would assist in matters such as land acquisition and construction. All of a sudden, Tsubame Hokusai was roasted on a fire. In desperation, Yan Hokusai had no choice but to kick the ball to Zuo Lin, let Zuo Lin deal with them directly, how to say that this is also Zuo Lin's own business, although Yan Hokusai is the operator, but Yan Hokusai is only willing to occupy 3 percent of the shares in it.

"Yan Lao refused to let go and said where the bottom line of production capacity is, so we had to ask you. Lin Dong said briskly.

"It's useless to ask me, I only know what conditions are needed to plant Tianxin Lotus, as for how to use large-scale production methods to achieve these conditions, I am even more bottomless than Yan Lao's heart," Zuo Lin is more refreshing. "Clean air and water, proper mineral nutrients, conditions are harsh. Now that you have the know, you should know that the small-scale trial planting is now in the very perverted shed of the Agricultural Research Institute. The water and air filtration there are much more sophisticated than where I live. ”

Lin Dong understands how big the difference is between the improvement of the environment on a small scale and the improvement of the environment on a large scale. Even if it can form an annual output of 120,000 cans of ointment, according to the price proposed by Yan Hokusai, it will only have a turnover of more than 60 million, deducting the high production costs, and the profit may not even be a percent, which is really dispensable for a rich person like Yan Lao. The construction of such a planting and production base is particularly risky, with serious depreciation and loss of equipment and complex personnel management. In particular, the cost of secrecy and security will not be small in terms of supply to the military and national security.

Guo Xiaoling suddenly interjected and said, "What if we come forward to help?" Guo Xiaoling gently pulled Lin Dong's sleeve and winked. As soon as you get into the state of talking about business, the crampedness caused by wearing clothes that you are not used to immediately disappears.

Lin Dong immediately understood what Guo Xiaoling meant, and said: "It is indeed very uneconomical in terms of energy consumption and other aspects for civilian equipment to achieve such cleanliness in a glass conservatory, and to filter a large amount of clean water. I think we can help a little bit in that regard. The aerospace special production base in Minhang District just installed a new air filter unit for the plant last month, and the original things have been replaced, and they are all very reliable products that are produced in a targeted manner. What do you think?"

At this time, Zhang Ling, who looked at Zuo Lin frowning as if he was thinking about some complicated issue, appeared at the right time. "Zuo Lin, can you introduce me to your friends?"

Zuo Lin grabbed Zhang Ling in surprise and said, "It just so happens that these two are friends of the National Security Bureau. Let's talk about the production of medicines. You can consult on it, I don't know anything about the specific production aspects. ”

It is not a good choice for four people to pestle in the banquet hall, and from time to time there will be people who don't want to do it to come up and talk to them, hand out business cards or something, which is very annoying. Zuo Lin told Zhang Ling about the general situation, and at the same time beckoned everyone to leave the venue and go to the café next to the banquet hall.

When Zhang Ling heard that he was going to lead the negotiation this time that he didn't understand the situation, he was not anxious and apprehensive, but seized the time to ask what kind of thing Tianxin Lotus was, what conditions were needed for cultivation, and what the other party's requirements were. When she learned that Tianxin Lotus could be used to make a series of medicines and other things, and now it was almost the military and the national security side that forced Zuo Lin to agree to greatly increase the output, Zhang Ling couldn't help but smile slightly, and said: "Stupid, such a good thing, why don't you agree? Isn't it about five years for Yan Lao to build a vegetable and agricultural and sideline products production base before he can recover his investment? With an order in hand and a guarantee from the military and national security, just ask the bank for a loan to build a planting base." In addition to being able to produce 120,000 cans next year, I think we must have at least 200,000 cans. In addition to satisfying the military and national security, can't such useful things open up a larger and more profitable market......? Cosmetics?"

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Ling depicted the grand prospect of such a special product.

"Cosmetics?" this is an area that Zuo Lin never knew about. Although the women he knew would have some skin care products and cosmetics around them, even Jin Xiaohua, who paid the least attention to appearance, had skin care products and sunscreen with him, but Zuo Lin never wanted to ask what these things were for. There is no shortage of women in the druid's ranks, and strangely enough, women who are gifted as druids are often beautiful women, but they are too favored by nature to decorate themselves with any cosmetics. There has never been anything like this in the druid's drug system that does little other than maintain appearance.

"The profits are high, it's like grabbing money. Zhang Ling didn't bother to explain to Zuo Lin. She doesn't feel like it makes any sense to explain to any man what cosmetics mean for women.

Although they did not know much information, Zhang Ling's negotiators also lacked the preparation for this kind of homework, and after Zhang Ling, on behalf of Zuo Lin, agreed to take over the order for a total of 120,000 cans of ointment next year, they accepted almost all of Zhang Ling's conditions. Zhang Ling's requests for price discounts and maintenance of imported equipment, as well as guarantees for bank loans, were not excessive, but she also rejected the military's proposal to pay 40 percent of the purchase price in advance. The time to build the production base is so tight, and there is a huge amount of equipment installation and personnel training work, and it is worth the pressure to take the order because compared to the profit, but if the payment is received in advance, it will be troublesome if you can't hand over the things at that time. What's more, Zhang Ling knows very well that with the progress of the work in his hands, the securities in Zuo Lin's hands will be gradually realized by the beginning of next year. She carefully selects a few valuable shares to gain a say on the board, but the vast majority of them are sold. Zuo Lin is just short of money for the time being, and tens of millions are not a big problem.

"Looks like there's a lot more you didn't tell me. Zhang Ling has a habit of constantly discovering surprises from Zuo Lin, and she did not express any dissatisfaction, which may be a better way for the two of them to get along. Although not necessarily the way she likes.

When Zuo Lin and Zhang Ling said goodbye to Lin Dong and Guo Xiaoling and returned to the banquet hall, the whole banquet had come to an end, and many people left one after another without waiting for the end, and most of the people who remained in the venue were their own people from the club. The buffet was originally a fairly free way to gather, more to provide opportunities for everyone to meet new people and chat. Compared to the league championship celebration that will be coming in a few weeks, this banquet is not too important.

"Come here, everyone," Cheng Yi, the general manager, beckoned all the team members to gather together. Thick envelopes with names written on them were handed to each person. There was a deep cheer in everyone's voices, and the moment of the bonus was always so exciting. "Everyone disbanded, and gathered at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow to train. ”

Looking at the envelope in Zuo Lin's hand, Zhang Ling asked with interest: "It's the first time I've seen the scene of the bonus being paid on the spot." How much can you take?"

Zuo Lin smiled and said: "I don't know, the goalkeeper takes money according to the number of consecutive defensive games, I don't remember how many FA Cup games I played." He handed the envelope to Zhang Ling nonchalantly, since Zhang Ling was so curious, then let her find the answer to this question herself.

Zhang Ling happily took out a small Swiss Army knife from the small bag in his hand and cut open the envelope. A check for 300,000 yuan came into view, and there was a whole stack of renminbi behind the check. Shenbao Football Club is one of the few clubs that has maintained the habit of paying bonuses with a part of cash. The tactile sense of a banknote is more likely to inspire loyalty than a check.

Zhang Ling smiled lightly and picked up the stack of banknotes, and the moment her slender fingers were inserted into the envelope, her originally smug smile became a little astringent. With a slight twist of her fingers, a golden room card appeared in her hand. The club is very thoughtful.

A touch of shyness climbed up Zhang Ling's face, but what came out of her mouth was still unrelenting, and there was some resentment on the bar: "It is said that you used to attend the club's banquet and asked the club to arrange a female companion for you?"

Zuo Lin, who was used to dealing with Zhang Ling, had the best reaction at this time - he looked at Zhang Ling's eyes tenderly and never spoke.
