I'm sorry, I forgot to update it yesterday. Make it up today.

"Report, Director Lin of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Factory asks to see me."

"Xuan." Guangxu suddenly put down his chopsticks and stood up. What is the result? Is it success or failure? Guangxu's heart became nervous.

Lin Lianhui's first words when he entered the door were: "Congratulations to the emperor." ”

When Guangxu heard this, a smile bloomed on his face: "Get up." Sit down and speak slowly, not in a hurry. ”

Lin Lianhui didn't sit down, but took out three stacks of materials and three bottles of medicinal powder. I talked about it in detail.

Since the change of the new pharmaceutical method, the results have actually been available in a week. It can be mass-produced. But there is a problem here, the surname of the drug can be tested and found to be unstable, although it can stop bleeding, but the effect is fast and slow, which makes everyone puzzled for a while, and they dare not report to Guangxu to know. Later, Lin Lianhui took everyone to check the research and development materials, and found that there were differences in the basic medicinal materials used in the development. It seems that the quality and age of the medicinal materials have an impact on the surname of the finished medicinal powder. Therefore, after more than half a month of testing, the basic formula and mass production process can finally be determined after recombining different medicinal materials, increasing or decreasing the amount or adding other medicinal materials according to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Your Majesty, please look at the first one." Lin Lianhui took out a bottle of medicine labeled with the word "Shang": "The medicinal powder in this bottle is processed from medicinal materials that are more than 100 years old, and its effect is the fastest and the best. And it has a significant effect on anti-inflammatory. ”

"This bottle is labeled 'medium', which is made from ten-year-old medicinal herbs, and its effect is slightly worse than that of 'Shang'. The last bottle is labeled 'Down', and the herbs used are made by five-year-olds, and the effect is the worst. ”

In addition, the ministers also found that in addition to the age of the medicinal material, its origin also has an impact on the efficacy. Yunnan is the best. ”

“……”

After listening to Lin Lianhui's explanation, Guangxu looked down at the three bottles of medicinal powder and nodded, and said to himself: "It's good if it can be developed, it's good if it can be developed." Now I am finally relieved. After speaking, he raised his head and asked, "I don't know how much each of these three bottles cost?" ”

Since the opening of the Four Seas Hotel, the refreshments with the flavors of various countries and the essence of Chinese cuisine have been very tempting just by looking at them. British Minister Ogner once commented on the vivid and delicate food: "Where is this dim sum, this is simply a work of art." "The unique food, the post-modern decoration with a unique flavor, and the bands from different countries play local music every day, which makes the ministers who have been stationed in China for a long time feel the taste of their hometown that they have not seen for a long time. Not to mention the waiters in the hotel, they are all first-class beauties in China, warm greetings, slightly reserved smiles, polite, and generous, if the ministers of various countries do not come one day, they will make him feel that there is something missing in life. Ministers from various countries have numbered each week according to the music of different countries played every day. For example, if you play a British piece on Monday, then the day is called the British one, Tuesday is the German one, Wednesday is the French one, and then the United States, Russia, and Italy are the same. On Sundays, the performance is not fixed, and you can order songs. Weekly cycles, although they are expensive, they have fallen in love with this place.

Today is Germany, and the German music played on stage is as rigorous and passionate as the Germans. Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Russia, Italy, Austria, including Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and other ten countries of the seven countries of the envoys gathered together, although it was not yet tea time, they had long given up the habit of discussing affairs in the legations, and chose to do so in the Four Seas Hotel, while tasting exquisite refreshments, while discussing affairs.

"Ministers and gentlemen, for this drug, which was personally named Yunnan Baiyao by the Qing Emperor, its efficacy is certain, and it can minimize the probability of death of wounded soldiers on the battlefield. This is extremely beneficial for any country. Although the Qing Kingdom is backward in various science and technology, it must be a country with a 5,000-year-old civilization, and there are still things that people admire. It has to be said that this drug is also the most advanced in the world. In this regard, our parliament is determined to win. Speaking of this, the French minister Shi Alan took a sip of tea, and then said: "Regarding the Qing Emperor's resolute refusal to sell the formula of Yunnan Baiyao, I believe that you have already read my country's proposal, and you can put forward any opinions to discuss together." Regarding the purchase of Yunnan Baiyao formula, I personally hope that you can maintain the same attitude towards China. ”

After Shi Alan finished speaking, Ogna said slowly: "I personally agree with Your Excellency's proposal to maintain unity with China on this matter, and I also hope that the ministers of other countries can also be unanimous to exert pressure on the Qing State to force the Qing Emperor to agree to sell the formula of Yunnan Baiyao." However, our parliament disagrees with your country's proposal to share the formula. China believes that the method of public auction should be adopted, and the highest price should be awarded. "The profit brought by the unique Yunnan Baiyao formula is not something that can be calculated with pen and paper. The British Parliament demanded that Ogner have a recipe at all costs, and the British Empire has always been the world's largest power.

How to distribute the profits brought by the Yunnan Baiyao formula has long been a common place in the Sihai Hotel. On the one hand, all countries wanted to have their own formula, and on the other hand, in view of the resolute attitude of the Qing emperor and the hope that all countries could put pressure on the Qing state at the same time, an agreement was never reached. At this moment, the lieutenant of the German minister, Barland, stepped forward and whispered a few words to him. Barand got up: "Apologize, I need to leave for something." ”

The person who came to the German minister was known to everyone else, it was Major General Michael invited by the Qing State, and they sat at a distance and talked in a low voice. After a while, Major General Michael left. Barland stepped forward with an apologetic face and said, "I'm very sorry, I have to leave because of an emergency." With that, he turned and left.

Ogner noticed that the waitress who had been talking to the Germans had been the one who had often served Barland, and that she had spoken very good German, and that she had just stood aside as if nothing had happened, believing that she had heard the Germans. Ogner walked away for a while, pulled the waiter with his back to the others, and quietly asked, "Beautiful lady, can you tell me what they just said?" ”

The waiter's face flushed: "My lord, this is not good. ”

"We've just been talking about something very important, very important. The sudden departure of the German Minister necessitated the suspension of what we were discussing. Ogener quietly took out a silver ticket worth one hundred taels of silver and handed it forward: "I'm just curious." ”

"My lord, that's not appropriate." The waiter said this with his eyes fixed on the silver ticket. In Ogner's opinion, the waiter's eyes showed a greedy gaze. Ogna smiled and took out another silver ticket of one hundred taels of silver, felt that the waiter's heart was struggling to take out a silver ticket of one hundred taels of silver again, and then asked with a smile, "I wonder if this can satisfy my curiosity?" ”

The waiter quickly put the three hundred taels of silver tickets into his sleeve, and then whispered: "The general who came just now told the German minister that the drug called Yunnan Baiyao has been successfully developed." It was also said that Germany needed to obtain this drug. The general also said that he asked Mr. Minister to conclude a procurement agreement with Qing as soon as possible. Oh yes. What else do you say that a bottle of such medicine costs hundreds of taels of silver? That's the idea, I don't understand a lot of the terms they say. ”

"Thank you very much, beautiful lady." Suffice it to have these words from her. Now that the Qing Dynasty has developed a method that can be mass-produced, it is useless to put pressure on all countries together. As long as the Qing agreed to sell to any of the countries in the union, the alliance would collapse. Ogner could conclude that Barand must have entered the palace. Ogena hurriedly called the adjutant, and after a few words of discussion in a whisper, he returned to his seat and said, "Everyone, I also need to leave." How about we'll talk about it tomorrow? Before anyone else could understand what he meant, Ogna turned and left.

What happened? The first person here to react was US Minister Tian Bei. He followed the example of Ogner, and after asking the reason for four hundred taels of silver, he also left immediately, which was regarded as a stab at the hornet's nest. The ministers of the other countries immediately called the waiter to ask what had happened.

"Mr. Tian Bei just gave me four hundred taels of silver! If you don't believe me, you can ask him if he has given it. The experienced waiter was a little unhappy with the minister's questioning.

Russian Minister Cassiny immediately took out four hundred taels of silver tickets: "Can you tell us?" ”

The waiter only glanced at it and said something that made everyone collapse: "Four hundred taels is the price of one person, but there are seven of you here." ”

On the stairs on the second floor, Zhou Qin quietly watched what was happening on the first floor. A knowing smile.

"Your Excellency." After hearing the reason for the incident, the ministers of the seven countries all left, and the waiter stepped forward to report: "Except for the British minister Ogner, who is three hundred taels of silver, the other ninety-four ministers are all four hundred taels. A total of 3,900 taels, please accept it. ”

Zhou Qin didn't even look at the stack of silver tickets. Smiled lightly: "It's easy to buy and sell information to get money, right?" Without waiting for the others to smile, Zhou Qin immediately lowered his face, revealing a hideous face: "If you let me know who betrayed your country's intelligence, don't let Lao Tzu hack and harm his family." ”

"Yes, I respect your lordship."

Zhou Qin's face instantly became amiable again: "Selling information about other countries that have nothing to do with our country to other countries is another matter." Hand in half of it, and the rest of the money will be your own. But ......" Zhou Qin raised his finger at the waiter a little, and smiled: "Remember to treat you at night." ”

How to price Yunnan Baiyao for Guangxu headache. I'm afraid that the price is too high to sell, and the price is low, it doesn't seem to be cost-effective. I can't think of just putting it aside. "I'll meet the inventor first."

"The grass name Yao Lianjun, long live my emperor, long live, long live." An old man with a gray beard knelt on the ground.

"Mr. Yao, please get up and give me a seat. First of all, I would like to thank you for inventing such a miracle medicine. This is all you have, and now I have no choice but to ask for it. I don't go around in circles, I need to use this medicine to do some business with other countries. ”

"Under the world, it is not the king's land. On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. Everything in the world is owned by the emperor, so the medicine can contribute to the country in the hands of the emperor, and it is also the blessing of the grass people. Although Yao Lianjun has already been instilled with various etiquettes and precautions for the prelude, it is inevitable that he will be nervous when he is really facing the saint.

"Mr. Yao doesn't need to be nervous, just sit down and talk. This Yunnan Baiyao is also the brainchild of Yao Laoxian, although I forcibly ask for it, but your things are yours. So I don't want it in vain. Come. ”

Kou Liancai came in with a wooden plate and placed it beside Yao Lianjun.

"Mr. Yao, please take a look." Guangxu recently explained: "There are two options here. First, I bought your recipe for two million taels of silver; Second, I signed a contract with you. Based on the formula of Yunnan Baiyao, I invested 10 million taels of silver to set up a Zhonghua Pharmaceutical Factory. You own 10% of it. That is to say, as long as you sign the contract, you will own the assets of Zhonghua Pharmaceutical Factory worth 1 million silver, and in the future, for every 100 taels of silver that Zhonghua Pharmaceutical Factory earns, you will get 10 taels. Of course, nothing is absolute. If the Chinese Pharmaceutical Factory closes down at a loss, then we will all lose all our money. So you think about which one to choose. ”

While he was talking, the little eunuch who had delivered the word came to report, and the German minister Barand asked to see him. Guangxu and Lin Lianhui looked at each other, thinking that it was so fast.

"Take the German minister to the Hanyuan Hall to wait. Lin Lianhui walked along. "How much is it going to sell? It's a problem. Guangxu secretly guessed.
