Chapter 650: The Zuo family is also crazy
Besides, they can't even think about it.
What about the Zheng family in Fujian, which is very good in the whole country, because it offended, the entire family was almost extinct, which had a huge impact, and the Zuo family also heard about it.
Because the Zuo family wants to import some overseas medicinal materials, they have always been in contact with the Zheng family and other eight pirate families, so they naturally know what happened to the Zheng family.
This time they wanted to snatch the prescription from Zuo Ling's hands, of course, it was a risky move, but they decided that Zuo Ling's relationship with Zuo Ling was not ordinary, and there was a lure of lure, Zuo Ling gave up the prescription to share with the family, and it would not be excessive.
Besides, if you want to take revenge on them, the first to bear the brunt is Zuo Wenxiang's father and son, and the Zuo family also knows that the relationship between the Zuo family father and son and Zuo Ling is extraordinary, and they will definitely not attack them.
Seeing his daughter answer everyone like this, Zuo Wenxiang breathed a sigh of relief. The family forces forced the palace, Zuo Wenxiang didn't care about it originally, the big deal was that this thankless patriarch was, but after Zuo Kun came forward, he had a big head, no matter what, this is the only remaining older generation in the family, and the words of the ancestors still have to be listened to.
Of course he refused to force his daughter to hand over the prescription, the source of the prescription is self-evident, except that no one else is willing to come up with this top-secret prescription, each one has immeasurable value, even if it is exchanged for rare treasures, no one is willing to exchange it.
"But Ling'er leads people to make medicine every day, don't you know what kind of medicine is dispensed?" Zuo Wenzeng still didn't give up.
"How can this be known. I've been supplying medicine to the clan for so long, can you crack the prescription?" Zuo Ling asked rhetorically.
Of course, this is impossible, otherwise there would be no such thing as top secret.
Some of the medicines are relatively simple, and they can be cracked after careful study, but the vast majority of secret Chinese patent medicines cannot be cracked, otherwise no one will make money with the secret recipe of medicine.
It's actually quite simple, Coca-Cola sells well all over the world, but no one can imitate a bottle that tastes exactly the same.
Most of the Chinese patent medicines on the market are made with public prescriptions that have been gradually decrypted by various generations, and anyone can do it, but the precision and quality of each production are different, and the natural efficacy of conscience medicine is good, and the efficacy of large road goods is much worse, and inferior products not only cannot cure diseases, but will harm people's lives.
Later generations imitated drugs that were basically chemical preparations, which were relatively easy to crack, and could be accurately imitated, and the efficacy was almost the same, so patent protection had to be adopted to protect the rights and interests of inventors. No further ado.
Zuo Wenxiang knew that his daughter was lying, he understood that he was a person, and he would never hide anything from Zuo Ling. But at this time, Zuo Ling's approach was the most appropriate, although he told a lie, he avoided confrontation with the entire family.
Zuo Dongge's hanging heart finally let go, he knew his sister's temper, and if he wanted to force her to do something, she must rather break the jade than break it. As for the prescription, he was also confused, and he didn't know whether what his sister said was true or not. But he certainly wouldn't ask the question.
"Well, let's disperse, Ling'er has no prescription in his hand, so we've all worked in vain. The head of a small branch raised his voice.
This person did not approve of this kind of behavior in the first place, but he was dragged in, and if he did not attend the meeting in the council hall, it would be a violation of the clan rules, and that would be a big deal.
The reason why he was not enthusiastic about forcibly taking the prescription was because even if he succeeded in getting the prescription, the bulk of the benefits would still be obtained by the seven main veins, and it would be good to have a little soup in the mouths of these small branches. It stands to reason that a little soup is better than nothing, but doing so will inevitably offend besides, besides, the forces behind are not vegetarians, and God knows what the final result will be.
Therefore, he believes that the risks and benefits of this matter are too disproportionate, and it is pure madness.
There are still a few family members like him who think like this, and two of them are still in the main vein, they usually get close to Zuo Wenxiang and Zuo Dongge, and they don't approve of persecuting Changfang like this.
"Yes, I thought that the prescription was in Ling'er's hands, and she could be persuaded to take it out and share it with the family, and the benefits would be shared, but she didn't have a prescription in her hand, so let's not think about it. ”
"That is, put aside the prescription for the time being, should we check how the fake drugs in our brand name came from, whether they were brought in from the outside, or whether they were faked by our own people. Zuo Wendou, the head of the seventh room, spoke.
He was implicated in the counterfeit drug incident, and several patients who had toxic side effects took the medicine in his store. There is a rule in the family that if there is a problem with the medicine sold in the store, the cost and responsibility incurred will be borne by the person who will incur it later.
He has never made counterfeit medicines, but he has caused these troubles for no reason, although now it is only a few patients, God knows what will happen in the future, he counted it after the incident and found that hundreds of people bought the fake drugs in his store, but the cost of treating the patient and compensation has made him feel pain, in case there is any major incident, but he will have to suffer a lawsuit.
Zuo Wenxiang hurriedly interjected: "That is, since our brothers have gathered here, the ancestor has finally come out once, so he simply found out about the appearance of fake medicine here." According to me, most of these fake drugs are made by our own people, and it is not difficult to find out who they are, but I don't want to hurt the harmony of the brothers and the rooms, so I think it is better to say it myself, as for the cost and responsibility issues can be borne by my long room this time, not as an example. ”
He was very grateful to Zuo Wendou, and suddenly shifted his focus from Zuo Ling's prescription to fake medicine, which was actually something that could not be delayed and must be solved immediately.
He didn't want to make trouble, he just wanted to solve the counterfeit drug incident cleanly, so he simply took it all and took everything on his head, as long as the person who made the fake medicine took the initiative to admit it.
If this kind of thing is outside, naturally no one will take the initiative to admit it, but this is the location of the ancestral ancestral temple, and most people still have a sense of awe for the heroic spirits of the ancestors, and it is easier to tell the truth.
Besides, it is not difficult for brothers to show their hearts and minds, greed for money is the true color of businessmen, not a shortcoming, if they are not greedy for money, what is the need to use this to make profits, and even risk breaking the law and discipline.
There are people who do the business of killing heads, but no one does the business of losing money. This is the motto of businessmen of all generations, starting from Qin Shi Huang.
This point is summed up precisely by a famous quote by the later philosopher Marx:
When the profit reaches 50 percent, the capitalist will do whatever it takes; when the profit reaches 100 percent, the capitalist will take a risk; and when the profit reaches 200 percent, the capitalist will dare to trample on all the laws, dignity, and morality of the world and sacrifice himself for money. When the profit reached 300 percent, he dared to commit any crime, and did not hesitate to risk hanging his head.
It seems that the words here are about capital and capitalists, and it has nothing to do with the merchants of ancient times, but it is not. As long as you do business, it is nothing more than the relationship between capital and profit, which is the same from the period of Goujian, Fan Li is in business, three years of accumulation of thousands of gold, nothing more than money to fight money, borrowing to make profits, is the relationship between capital and profit.
Besides, what is the prescription for Zuo Ling, it is beyond the scope of capital and profit, every prescription can be called a cornucopia, the golden rooster that will lay golden eggs, the profit is not a few hundred, but between 10,000 or even 1 million, it depends on how big you are.
Again, how much profit does Coca-Cola's formula generate, and can it be calculated as a percentage?
This top-secret recipe has spawned a world-class financial business empire, and it is said that even the designer who designed the Coca-Cola bottle in the first place became a billionaire.
In order to save money, Coca-Cola asked a college student to design a bottle and promised to pay a penny for a bottle sold to him, but it didn't expect to pay a sky-high price in the end: billions of dollars. And this cost has to continue to be paid every year as Coca-Cola continues to sell well, which can be said to be the most expensive design fee in the world.
It was precisely this that the Zuo family was driven crazy by this, desperate to seek it, and even did not hesitate to offend the forces behind him, and did not hesitate to do so at the risk of being exterminated, it is not too much to call it madness.
Seeing that the topic had been successfully transferred, Zuo Wenfu smiled lightly: "What Niece Xian said just now is not true, as far as I know, every time I dispense medicine, it is Niece Xian who gives the medicine herself, and Gongzi Guo did not go, and as far as I know, Gongzi has only been to your residence once, and has never been to the place where you make medicines." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
"What, second brother, who did you listen to when you said this, is it reliable?" Zuo Wenzeng shouted first.
"Is it reliable? I have done many unreliable things in my life, but have I said anything unreliable?" Zuo Wenfu said proudly.
"Second brother, you can't just say this, if you make a mistake, there will be a big problem. Zuo Wensheng couldn't help but scream.
These three people are the most enthusiastic to get the prescription, and although Zuo Wenfu is the leader of this plan, the two of them are the most enthusiastic accomplices.
"If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that Ling'er has a prescription in his hand?" Zuo Wendou's head was really big, and he realized the seriousness of the problem.
Zuo Wenxiang's heart sank, things were developing in the direction he was most worried about, and it seemed that his brothers would definitely not let go of their family today.
"The second uncle knows quite in detail, but no matter who you listen to, I can tell you that you heard it wrong, or the person you bought was unreliable and deceived you. Zuo Ling laughed.
"Ling'er, I grew up watching you, and I can see if you're lying. Zuo Wenfu said with a smile.
"Why did Ling'er tell a lie, and Ling'er didn't dare to say that the second uncle lied, but the person who told you about it lied. Zuo Ling smiled indifferently.
"Okay, in that case, let's find a reliable person to confirm it. After Zuo Wenfu finished speaking, he clapped his hands.
A moment later, Zuo Ping led a middle-aged woman in.
The middle-aged woman suddenly saw the head of the whole family, and the ancestor was still sitting on it, and her legs couldn't help but feel a little weak, and after she came in, she kept saying hello to both sides and upwards, but no one paid attention to her.
When Zuo Ling saw this person, he was cold all over his body for a moment.
This middle-aged woman is none other than her chief housekeeper Fu Rong.
