Chapter One Two Three Greatness

  Xu Silai and Ma Shaopeng negotiated a deal with the factory owner from another region.

  The other party was very happy and immediately paid half of the funds, which is 7.5 million cash, to the account of Siyuan Company, and the other half will be paid upon delivery.

  Just as the transaction was settled on this side, the phone rang again.

  "Hello, is this Siyuan Company?" This time the other party's Mandarin was very good.

  "This is Siyuan Company."

  "I'm looking for your boss, I want to talk to her about some business." he said directly.

  "I am, and you are......" Xǔ Sī asked.

  "Oh, it's President Xu, right? I'm a director of Wenzhou Red Flag Real Estate Company. I'd like to cooperate with you on some projects related to sachets." The other party immediately replied upon hearing that it was Xu Si.

  "After being bought out by Jiaduobao for 10 million yuan, Xu Si has already become calm."

  "It's like this," the other party thought for a moment and said: "May I ask how much stock of sachets you have? We need it urgently here, so we want to buy more at one time."

  "We were just..." Xǔ Sīyī started to say, but immediately stopped. She quickly realized the other person's intention. "Sorry, how many sachets do you need?"

  "Mr. Xu, we've said it before, all of them are required, no negotiations, 15 yuan each..." The other party spoke in a very arrogant tone, daring to say so without even knowing how many sachets the Sifang Group had.

  "It's like this, we won't let it all go empty, how much more do you need, just give me a number." said Xu Si Dao.

  "The other party hastened to say, 'Mr. Xu, we're all business people, and we've all come for the benefit. I won't play dumb with you anymore. If your company sells all the sachets to us, we're willing to pay 18 yuan each. Whether they sell or not, we'll pay the money. However, within three days, your Sifang Group cannot sell a large quantity of sachets to others.'"

  Producing sachets is not easy, especially during the interview, Zhou Tong even deliberately exposed the "Si Yuantang" logo on the sachet. In this way, if you want to produce a counterfeit sachet similar to Si Yuantang, you must first produce fabric with the "Si Yuantang" logo, and then make it into a sachet after producing the fabric. The fastest batch can only be produced three days later.

  But in the face of the plague, which buyer will wait for three days? Those who see this news will definitely take immediate action to buy sachets.

  Xu Si said coldly: "This is a lifesaving sachet, not a money-making tool. I'm telling you, our inventory is sufficient and won't be emptied out. If you want to speculate on the price of sachets like housing prices, let me tell you, it's impossible."

  "You" Haha... The other person was initially very angry, then burst out laughing "Alright, alright, I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be such a good person after all. Mr. Xu must not be very old, right? Thirty years old or so? Little girl, let me tell you a truth: no business without cheating, no cheating without business. If you can't even do these eight words, then you definitely won't achieve anything in business."

  "Thanks for your advice," said Xu Si lightly.

  "Alright, since your company doesn't want to make money, I have no choice. We need one million sachets, and we need to close the deal now. The goods must be delivered by 7 pm tonight. For every hour delayed, you will pay a penalty of 10% of the amount." The other party, seeing that Xu Si was not cooperating, did not haggle much and only asked for one million sachets.

  In the eyes of those Wenzhou house-flipping speculators, this small sachet is a big business opportunity. In the face of the plague, everyone is in danger, but the sachets from Siyuantang have already been on the news and advertised on the front pages of major websites. Even if they sell for 30 yuan each, they will still be in short supply.

  Moreover, since the sachets also come with anti-counterfeit labels, it can be guaranteed that no counterfeit goods will appear on the market within three days. Within these three days, let alone one million sachets, even three million can be easily sold out.

  Hanging up the phone, Xu Si couldn't help but pinch her own face. Just half an hour ago, she was still worried about this month's employee salary, but half an hour later, the company's account had already increased by tens of millions of funds.

  "Is making money really that easy?" Xǔ Sī patted her own head, she had been running Sī Yuǎn Natural Technology Co., Ltd. for three years, with a net profit of just over 10 million, how did Sòng Jiàn manage to make so much in just half an hour?

  "It seems that 50 million sachets can be sold out in three days." Xǔ Sī counted on her fingers and then a smile broke out on her face. "The net profit of one sachet is 10 yuan, 50 million... oh, what should I eat for dinner tonight?"

  Xu Si leaned against her head thinking about dinner.

  At this time, there were already over thirty patients crowded inside Siyuantang Pharmacy.

  The medicine in the bucket had been used up, and at this time, the first batch of patients who had taken it had a slight sweat on their bodies and immediately felt refreshed.

  More than ten patients came, eight of whom felt much better. Song Jian asked them to take another bottle home. The other three patients did not see any effect, so Song Jian gave them a separate examination and prescribed two doses of medicine for them to drink at home.

  Everyone is thirty yuan for treatment, and the thirty yuan includes a quilt, a mask. Thirty yuan, as long as it's the beginning of the plague, guaranteed to be cured.

  Song Jian furrowed his brow, took stock of the patient's recovery situation, and then called Liu Dachun over. He modified the previous prescription: changing 10 grams of Cyperus rotundus to 15 grams, replacing 10 grams of raw Atractylodes macrocephala with 10 grams of stir-fried Atractylodes macrocephala, and increasing the amount of Prunella vulgaris to 20 grams.

  "This time increase it by a hundredfold, boil it into a medicinal liquid, transport it over, and find an insulated bucket to hold the medicinal liquid," Song Jian instructed. Liu Dachun nodded, his body now covered in medicinal liquid - there were even medicine dregs on his hair, it was clear that Liu Dachun was very busy.

  Just an hour after the first batch of patients left, hundreds of patients rushed into Siyuantang.

  Xia Lin, who was maintaining order inside, was startled. She looked around the pharmacy's hall and had no choice but to find a few people to help her set up a shed outside the door of Siyuantang.

  Song Jian had anticipated a surge in the number of patients, but he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly. He first called Liu Dachun and asked him to prepare ten large pots for decocting medicine at the same time. Meanwhile, Song Jian also called Zhou Tong and told her that the medicine was ready, asking her to come again for an interview.

  Zhou Tong and Ye Chen arrived very quickly.

  Lights, backdrop, camera, and of course, that huge background billboard are all ready.

  Zhou Tong didn't drag on this time and directly got to the point. "Master Song, I heard you created a medical prescription for treating plagues. How's its effect?"

  "I didn't create it from scratch, but based on the specific characteristics of this epidemic's dampness and warmth, I modified the Silver Flower Powder formula by adding some ingredients. Here, I'd like to discuss with fellow TCM practitioners nationwide that this epidemic has a strong damp evil, so we need to increase the dosage of Cyperus rotundus and White Poria cocos to strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness. Among them, Cyperus rotundus is crucial as it can not only eliminate internal dampness but also help eliminate external dampness with its medicinal properties.

  Additionally, the dosages of Lonicera japonica and Forsythia suspensa should be increased. As the warm evil invades from above, it first affects the lungs, causing lung qi stagnation, leading to coughing, expectoration, and even difficulty breathing. The two herbs can suppress this reaction.

  Below is the formula for everyone to see. Fellow TCM practitioners who are treating epidemic patients can try this formula: Lonicera japonica 20g, Forsythia suspensa 10g..."

  Song Jian's expression was very serious, he read Fang Zi's words one by one, and then explained a few key points and flexible methods.

  Zhou Tong stared blankly at Song Jian, anyway she didn't understand these traditional Chinese medicine knowledge, she just felt that Song Jian was very different, if in the past Song Jian gave her a feeling of being very steady and safe, then at this moment Song Jian gave her a feeling of - great. Yes, it's exactly that word.

  Zhou Tong himself was also puzzled, how did this word suddenly surge up in his heart. In modern society, only a fool like Lei Feng would be described as great.

  Zhou Tong's mouth corners floated with a smile, she looked at Song Jian's opening and closing lips, feeling so attractive.

  "Zhou journalist, Zhou journalist?" Song Jian waved the medical record in his hand.

  "Ah? Ah?" Zhou Tong's face turned red for a moment, thinking to himself how he could be so infatuated. But his words were: "Master Song, you're absolutely right! I was completely absorbed in your words. Alright, we'll submit this medical record to the authoritative experts for review and then announce it nationwide. Master Song, your merits are boundless."

  Song Jian nodded slightly.

  After this news was broadcast, as usual, it appeared on the homepage of various portal websites. This made Baidu and Sohu's technical staff very puzzled, but no matter how they checked, they couldn't find out who replaced the link code. However, after checking several times without finding any results, they stopped investigating, since this video was the post with the highest click-through rate, and they didn't need to argue with their own website traffic.

  Inside the Jiangnan Provincial Department of Health building, seven or eight elderly people surrounded a computer, watching videos on it. The three videos were all about interviews with Song Jian.

  After finishing, an old man turned his head and looked at the old comrades beside him "What do you think?"

  Several old men fell silent for a moment.

  "This is an acute infectious disease," said one of the elderly men. "The danger level may not be inferior to that of the current epidemic when it first broke out. I suggest we follow the usual practice of previous years and immediately send suspected cases to designated hospitals for isolation and treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine cannot intervene in this kind of disease, and if it gets out of control, it will be catastrophic."

  In the past epidemic control, traditional Chinese medicine was not allowed to diagnose suspected patients. Once a suspected patient is found, it must be reported immediately and isolated treatment must be carried out in designated hospitals.

  "But what if this kid is telling the truth? What if Chinese medicine can really effectively prevent this plague? Do you still remember that year when SARS broke out, the most effective medicine wasn't Tamiflu, but rather those traditional Chinese medicines like Lianhua Qingwen capsules." The old man at the front sighed and said.

  "...". The rest of the people fell silent. They were the most powerful people in the Jiangnan Provincial Health Department and also the authorities on infectious diseases in Jiangnan Province. Their decision would affect the entire province's defense resolution.

  "This time, let's just let traditional Chinese medicine join in. For those who enter Western hospitals, we'll use the treatment methods from previous years. For those who enter traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, let them handle it themselves. However, for severe cases, we must provide timely diagnosis and treatment. As for these traditional Chinese medicine practitioners participating in the treatment, our attitude is neither opposed nor supportive - just let them develop on their own and see how things go before making a decision." The elderly person at the front spoke up.

  "Alright, Director Lao, I'll do as you say."

  Soon, a document was issued to the health and epidemic prevention bureaus of various cities, and a war against the plague officially began.
