Chapter 154 Kong Li is doomed
Manager Wan is right. These five gold bars are not just worth the money, they are simply a great value.
A military truck, one hundred sets of cotton-padded clothes, and two soldiers on board, who served as drivers and escorts, and also helped with loading and directing the stacking of the goods.
After the car is loaded, cover it with a large piece of canvas and tie it up with ropes.
Su Bai asked Adjutant Feng to go with the truck and only transport the goods to Linhua.
It is no exaggeration to say that the goods being transported back to Longxing this time are extremely important to Su Bai.
In addition to vials and vial filling equipment, there are also many other equipment and raw materials. After returning, we can replace and supplement the existing facilities and increase productivity exponentially.
In addition, Su Bai thinks that what is equally important are laboratory instruments, utensils, test reagents, chemical reaction catalysts, and hundreds of laboratory reagents. These are in small quantities and cannot be used for mass production, but this is the beginning of Su Bai's experimentation with new drugs.
Under the current environmental conditions, it is impossible for Su Bai to establish a large pharmaceutical group on her own to produce hundreds of drugs. There are only a few months left before the start of the full-scale war of resistance, and she has to concentrate her limited energy on the most needed drugs.
During her last few days in Shanghai, she had already made preliminary plans for her next step in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Needless to say, penicillin will still be the main product of our own pharmaceutical production.
In addition to penicillin, she also plans to develop two types of drugs, macrolides and quinolones.
Speaking of research and development, I find it a bit ridiculous.
In fact, it is just to redo the experiments done by predecessors once, twice, and repeatedly until it is finalized for production.
A typical representative of the first generation of macrolide drugs is erythromycin. Under current conditions, it is not difficult to produce erythromycin.
As for the second and third generation drugs of this type, such as azithromycin and roxithromycin, Su Bai has no plans to do so.
The need of the hour is speed.
There is no need to worry about the effectiveness. Currently, humans have almost no resistance to various types of antibiotics. Every time a new one is produced, as long as the doctor uses it properly, it is equivalent to the birth of a miracle drug.
Due to the broad spectrum of the drug, it is equally effective even if it is not used very accurately, but it cannot be called a miracle drug.
Quinolone drugs may require some effort. Nearly half of the laboratory reagents purchased by Su Bai this time are in preparation for the development of this type of drug.
Quinolones have a broader spectrum, are rapidly absorbed orally, and are easy to carry and use. In a battlefield environment, they are simply plug-and-play.
In fact, Su Bai’s drug production plan only focuses on these three types of drugs, with only one variety in each type, in other words, there are three types of drugs.
As for drugs like morphine and ether, they are only produced as a side job and are not included in their mass production plan.
After loading the car, Su Bai gave Adjutant Feng and the two officers some money for food and accommodation on the way. Manager Wan also brought them some dry food for the journey.
Su Bai, Zi Yan, Gao Hu and Xu Tianyi took a boat back to Qingdao, and then took a bus back to Linhua from Qingdao.
On January 1937, 1, Su Bai and four others returned to the backyard of the Confucius Mansion at around three in the morning and stayed in an inn in Linhua for most of the day, just to choose to come back during this surveillance window.
The trip to Shanghai actually took nearly half a month.
This return alarmed everyone in the Li Mansion and the backyard of the Kong Mansion. In order not to dampen everyone's enthusiasm and also not to be noticed by the people of the Kong Mansion, Su Bai asked everyone to gather at the Li Mansion.
Only Kong Dai and Xiao Wei didn't come.
Kong Dai asked them to pass a message to Su Bai that someone had to guard the backyard, and he would come to meet the young lady after she returned to the backyard of the Kong Mansion.
Everyone sat together and listened to Zi Yan telling them about what she had seen and heard in Qingdao over the past half month. It was indeed Qingdao, not Shanghai.
This was what Su Bai instructed everyone to do after completing the loading of the military vehicle in Shanghai. They should have a unified story after returning. He has been in Qingdao for the past half month, opening up channels and contacting for purchases for the upcoming business.
In this case, apart from the people who went to Shanghai with Su Bai, the only one who knew that Su Bai went to Shanghai was Kong Dai.
Kong Dai is a very tight-lipped person. He keeps secrets from Su Bai, let alone these people.
Zi Yan was really talking nonsense. She told everyone what she saw and heard in Shanghai by changing the place names, and a lot of it was just her imagination.
Fortunately, I didn't take her to the Paramount, otherwise it would have been a big joke.
The topic that everyone was most interested in was Qingdao women showing their thighs. Zi Yan was asked to gesture the extent of the slits on her cheongsam three times in a row and even turned around several times.
"I won't tell you anymore, it's as if I exposed my thighs!" Zi Yan finally realized that everyone had bad intentions.
In order to make everyone believe it, Zi Yan pasted some posters she had picked up from the streets of Shanghai at some point on the wall.
Now, everyone gathered around the woman in the painting and looked at her for a long time. Finally, someone noticed something: "Isn't this Shanghai? Why did you say it was Qingdao?"
"You know nothing. This thing is made in Shanghai and sold in Qingdao, don't you understand?"
Su Bai went through the tunnel and came to the backyard of the Kong Mansion. Kong Dai was already sitting in the yard waiting for her.
Judging from Kong Dai’s expression, something must have happened during the half month he was away.
The war had already started on the front line, and Su Bai heard the news as soon as he returned to Linhua.
What Kong Dai wanted to tell Su Bai was that Kong Li already knew that Su Bai had left the Kong Mansion.
About seven or eight days ago, Captain Zhao of the garrison battalion sent someone to look for Gao Hu. When he came for the first time, Kong Dai did not open the door for him and made excuses to get away with it. But the guy sent people to look for Gao Hu for two consecutive days, and the matter could no longer be hidden.
He had no choice but to tell the other party half the truth that the young lady had gone out, and Gao Hu, her personal bodyguard, had also followed her out.
Unexpectedly, Captain Zhao did not let this matter go and sent people every day. In this way, he knew that Su Bai was not temporarily out of the house for business, but had been away from the Confucius Mansion for a few days.
When he knew the news, Kong Li naturally knew it too.
If the war situation at the front had not been tense, Kong Li would have come to call for punishment long ago.
"How is the battle going on the front line?" Su Bai already had a plan for dealing with the possibility that Kong Li would know that she was out. Since it had happened, there was no need to be afraid. She was now very concerned about the progress of the war.
Kong Dai received news that Marshal Yang's troops had been surrounded. The two sides began a formal exchange of fire five days ago. During these five days, the fighting became more and more intense. It is said that more than 8000 of the more than soldiers of Kong Li'an's division have been deployed to the battlefield.
Captain Zhao's Longxing Garrison Battalion has five companies. Two of them were transferred to the front line before the war. Just yesterday, Captain Zhao personally led the other two companies to reinforce. Now there is only one company left in Longxing City.
In fact, it is just a company in name, but in reality there are only dozens of people.
"Is Marshal Yang's army so strong?" Su Bai heard from Xu Tianyi that the provincial government had sent two divisions and an elite reinforced regiment of the Central Army to participate in the war. Was it necessary for Kong Li to spend so much money?
Before Kong Dai could answer, Su Bai realized that Kong Li might be doomed this time.
