Chapter 21: Selling Equipment (I)
Chen Shao didn't say anything more, but looked at the two people who were deep in thought. After a long time, Chen Shao spoke again. Two of you, you can go back at night and think about it slowly, there is a question below, I don't know if you can answer it."" Please say."" I heard that both of them were in the north before, so why did they come to Guangzhou now?" Chen Shao asked his own question. Alas! Here's the thing,......" Jiang Baili and Cai Ye glanced at each other and slowly told the truth of the matter.
It turned out that due to the appearance of Chen Shao, Yuan Shikai bought a lot of weapons in Chen Shao's hands, and the heart of the emperor became more and more inflated, and he called people long live after a drink. At that time, Cai Ye was transferred to Beiping by Yuan Shikai, and in order to win over Cai Ye, Cai Ye was also relatively clear about some things.
Originally, these two wanted to contact warlords from all over the country to crusade against Yuan Shikai together, but no one responded, and they came to Guangzhou to lobby Sun Yat-sen, but now Sun Yat-sen's strength is not strong, so he did not agree. The two of them sighed for a long time in the hostel where they lived.
According to the original history, Cai Ye fought against Yuan's army in Sichuan in 1916, and later served as the Sichuan overseer, and Jiang Baili went directly to Sichuan to assist Cai Yi.
After sorting out his thoughts, Chen Shao spoke again: "That's it!" Either of you, let's take a look around in the next few days, and then go back to Qinghe Village with me in a few days to see our new look there. I think it's worth it for both of you."
Cai Ye doesn't care, anyway, if you go to YN Province, you have to go through GX Province, Jiang Baili really wants to go and see, I heard that there is now the largest industrial base in China. So I casually agreed. The three of them chatted until dinner, and when they returned to the hostel, they talked at night. Until the end, all three are equal and commensurate. Chen Shao's insights convinced Cai Ye and Jiang Baili completely.
The next day, Chen Shao took Cai Ye and Jiang Baili into Guangzhou Hospital together, specifically for Cai Ye to check his body, at first Cai Ye didn't want to come, and then Jiang Baili also followed the persuasion, so he agreed to come and see. Jiang Baili knows a little bit about Cai Yi's body, and he has a little problem with his lungs and has been coughing.
The results of the examination were that Cai Ye's lungs were habitually inflamed, and if he was not treated for a long time, he would be life-threatening. Seeing the cause of the disease, Chen Shao breathed a sigh of relief, he was most afraid of what Cai Ye had is an incurable disease, then Chen Shao has no choice, if it is just pneumonia, it will be much simpler, the advent of penicillin also saved Cai Ye's life, and also saved an outstanding military strategist for China.
Looking at Cai Yi, who was on a drip, Jiang Baili couldn't help but ask Chen Shao: "Brother Chen, Brother Songpo is really fine, does that medicine really work?" Brother Baili, rest assured, taking the medicine will definitely work." Chen Shao replied confidently. Seeing Chen Shao's confident face, Jiang Baili also let go of a hanging heart.
Sure enough, Cai Yi, who finished the drip, did not cough again for a day, which made the two more convinced of Chen Shao.
On the third day, the whole world knew the news that a new drug was formally interviewed, which was an epoch-making invention. A drug called penicillin has been developed that will completely resolve inflammation. For the countries that are far away in Europe and are caught in the war, penicillin is the ultimate medicine that the soldiers should die of inflammation, so they have contacted James in the United States, hoping to buy penicillin immediately, and James directly transferred those people to Chen Shao and told them Chen Shao's contact information.
-----------------
Although the business of the hostel where Chen Shao lives today is not very good, the owner of the inn is honestly afraid, nothing else, the very stylish young man who lived in the inn two days ago has chartered the inn and brought a group of servants and bodyguards over. Then many foreigners came to look for the young man.
Chen Shao was wearing a suit brought from the wardrobe of the base, full of energy, a year of military training, the whole person inexplicably had a more heroic spirit, looked much tougher, and at a glance people could see that they were not idle. Cai Ye and Jiang Baili were also curious about why so many foreigners came to him, so the two sat next to Chen Shao.
"You are all guests from afar, and letting everyone come today is also in line with the idea of doing business together and making money together." Chen Shao said unhurriedly, pointed to the third room next to him, and said: "If you want to buy penicillin, you can find him, but let me say first, the production of penicillin is not high, we can't take care of everyone, and I just need gold trading."
Portuguese Ambassador: "Chen, you must sell us penicillin, I will give you a reasonable price, and we Portuguese will remember your friendship."
France: "Chen, you say, how can you sell penicillin to us France."
Tsarist Russia: "Chen, as long as you sell penicillin to our great Tsarist Russia, our great Tsar will definitely remember your friendship."
“……”
"But Chen, how are you going to sell it, and what is the price?" A British sentence asks the questions of foreigners.
"As for the price, you are looking for the person I just mentioned!" Chen Shao left the room after speaking.
Jiang Baili and Cai Ye were still shocked why those foreigners would come to Chen Shao to buy penicillin, penicillin and the two of them knew, it had been spread in the past two days, and it was reported in the newspapers, but why did they come to Chen Shao to buy it. When they saw Chen Shao walking out, the two looked at each other and walked out, catching up with Chen Shao and Jiang Baili and then spoke: "Brother Chen, why did those foreigners ask you to buy penicillin, could it be that you invented it?" No, to be precise, it was researched by my scientists, and they are Chinese." After Chen Shao finished speaking, he didn't care about the two who were shocked, and said: "If you are shocked in this way, then I suggest that you better not go to Qinghe Village with me, because I am afraid that the hearts of the two of you will not be able to bear it, if the two of you have anything long and two short, then I can't afford to bear it." I couldn't help but laugh after saying that. For Chen Shao's teasing, the two didn't smile much, and in just one sentence, a lot of news was conveyed, and the two of them became more and more curious about Chen Shao.
Chen Shao stopped talking, but pulled the two of them and walked directly to another room. When Chen Shao, Jiang Baili, and Cai Ye entered another room, Wang Xiaoshan also walked in with two foreigners. Which two foreigners are the German ambassador to China, Dr Rio, and the military attache, Don Ogga. Chen Shao didn't say a word, and directly took out a box and put it on the table.
"There's two things in there." Chen Shao asked himself that his style of doing things was a little different from others, maybe if another person had the opportunity to cross, he would be more sleek and cunning, but Chen Shao would only take the simplest way, and continued: "The first thing is the design drawings of the tank. The second is a submarine. ”
Del Rio asked a little inexplicably: "Chen, we are here to buy penicillin..."
Chen Shao directly waved his hand to interrupt Del Rio's words and said: "The matter of penicillin is not important, you can say it at any time, now please take a look at the information in the box, we will go out and wait first, and then we will talk after you finish reading the information." After opening the box and pushing it in front of the two Germans, Chen Shao and Jiang Baili walked out.
After reading the information in the house, Don Oga said to Del Rio: "If you look at it purely from a technical point of view, this is indeed a real drawing, the mechanical principle is completely in accordance with it, if I guess correctly, this is a mechanical drawing of a transmission device, which seems to be used on some large vehicle." I think that such a big iron lump with weapons on land, there should be no easy way to destroy it except for an artillery hit. "So, the above explanation is also true," "Yes, it's hard to imagine that there is such advanced equipment in backward China, it seems that Chen Shao's energy is not small!" In that case, this submarine is also real." After all, Del Rio is a civilian and is not very familiar with these military equipment. As a military attaché, Tang Aojia is not difficult to understand these two documents." Well, it seems that we need to have a good talk with this amazing Chinese Chen."
