"No need. With our relationship, how can I not trust you?”
Cai Chun waved his hand and only had someone count the number of aluminum alloy accessories. It was easy to calculate the money. He did not check the quality or authenticity.
Regardless of whether he would check the quality and authenticity later, at least he was magnanimous and comfortable in front of Gu Zhou.
Ever since they had tested out the efficacy of penicillin, the higher-ups of the De Sheng Trading Company knew that mere watches and accessories were nothing compared to the huge benefits of penicillin.
If news of the potency of the penicillin spread, the Desheng Trading Company would only be able to reap one percent of the profits. What was the Thirteen Branches of Guangzhou? It's nothing!
"I haven't seen you for many days, but Mr. Gu is still in high spirits.”
He got someone to bring two cups of good tea and the two of them sat down. Cai Chun first flattered them a little.
Hmm…Actually, it wasn't flattery. He was just telling the truth.
Was telling the truth flattery?
Probably not.
"Good tea!"
Gu Zhouxuan looked at the tea in his hand and saw that in the white jade porcelain bowl, pieces of tender tea were like the tongue of a sparrow. The color was dark green, and the green liquid emitted waves of fragrance.
"This is the best Longjing tea, and there are rules to it. A cup of tea is divided into three sips. The first sip is to test the tea's warmth, the second sip is to taste the tea's fragrance, and the third sip is to drink the tea.”
"Is that so? I'll give it a try."
Gu Zhou followed Cai Chun's method and sipped the tea. The tea swirled in his mouth and he immediately felt a fragrance in his mouth and nose. Maofeng's fresh and refreshing taste, Biluochun's clear and fresh sweetness, Yunwu's fragrance and mellow taste, Longjing's fragrance and sweet taste, all of them were described without words.
Cai Chun also took a small sip and shook his head."The green waves ripple with a touch of fragrance. If it weren't for Mr. Gu, it wouldn't have been easy for me to drink this tea. I'm only able to drink it because of Mr. Gu's blessing.”
"Oh? What do you mean?"
"The De Sheng Trading Company doesn't have a lot of Longjing tea. They only get a few catties of it every year, and the remaining is only about one catty. This time, when we came to Daxiang County, the president specially brought out half a catty of tea just to entertain Mr. Gu.”
"Mr. Gu, do you like it?"
"Of course I like good tea."
Cai Chun lightly slapped the table." Good tea goes with a wonderful person. I'll get someone to pack the rest of the tea."”
After chatting for a while, the two of them got down to business. Cai Chun's expression turned serious."Mr. Gu, I won't beat around the bush. How much of this penicillin do you have?”
"It can be produced continuously."
Cai Chun heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that there wasn't a lot of penicillin. It was a one-time deal, but it could be produced continuously, which meant that the profits would be endless.
"How much can you produce in a year?"
Cai Chun didn't ask about the production method or the production location.
"Mister Cai, how much do you think we need to satisfy our needs?”
Cai Chun instantly came up with an answer." It depends on how many people know about it. If all the countries in the world know about the efficacy of penicillin, I'm afraid that even ten or a hundred tons won't be enough."”
"Don't worry about the efficacy of the penicillin. The market size is determined by how many people know about it.”
"Mr. Gu, you don't have to worry about the size of the market. There are people from all over the country and even all over the world in Guangzhou. With the ability of our Desheng Trading Company, it won't be difficult for us to make a name for ourselves.”Cai Chun patted his bulging chest, his fat trembling.
Gu Zhou raised a finger." I can give you 100 kilograms of penicillin first. It's enough to open up the market."”
One hundred kilograms…
Cai Chun read the instruction manual and did some mental calculations. Ten thousand units of penicillin should be equivalent to 0.006 grams. One injection of penicillin was about 100,000 units, which was about 0.06 grams.
100 kilograms of penicillin could be injected with 1.6 million injections.
Of course, each patient would receive more than one injection, and the number of injections would be different for different diseases.
But no matter how he calculated, 100 kilograms of penicillin was enough for now.
After half a minute, Cai Chun calculated and nodded slightly."It's enough to open up the market. The problem now was how to cooperate? Would it be a share, or would Mr. Gu sell the penicillin directly to Desheng Trading Company?”
"Can you afford it?"
Gu Zhou's one-word attack stunned Cai Chun. The value of penicillin far exceeded the value of gold of the same weight. According to the internal estimates of the Desheng Trading Company, it was at least a hundred times more.
100 kilograms of penicillin, according to the price of 100 times gold, would require 10 tons of gold. It would take half of the entire De Sheng Trading Company to gather so much money, and it was obviously impossible for the De Sheng Trading Company to empty out half of the company to buy penicillin.
They did not dare to take such a huge risk.
"De Sheng Trading Company indeed can't afford it."
Cai Chun said dejectedly. This was the first time he felt that the Desheng Trading Company was so poor that they couldn't even afford 100 kilograms of things.
What he didn't know was that Gu Zhou had set the price of penicillin a hundred times higher than gold.
During World War II, one ton of penicillin was equivalent to more than 600 tons of gold. Of course, that was in the context of the global war, and there was a great demand for penicillin.
Although the world was in chaos now, there had never been a global war. The demand for penicillin was not as strong as during World War II.
The price that Gu Zhou had set in his heart had been halved. He thought that this price was very reasonable.
Although there was no global war, global wars continued.
Under certain circumstances, Penicillins were just needed.
Moreover, the First World War had only started a few years ago.
"I'll give 10% to De Sheng Trading Company."
"Impossible!"
Cai Chun immediately stomped his feet and glared at him."The De Sheng Trading Company was the one who promoted the name of the penicillin and opened up the market. We were the ones who faced the pressure from all sides. Mr. Gu only needed to sit and collect the money. 10% was too little.”
Gu Zhou smiled." But as long as we open up the market, the De Sheng Trading Company will still be collecting money. Moreover, my partner doesn't have to be the De Sheng Trading Company.”
"Mr. Gu, didn't you choose us? We must have gotten Mr. Gu's approval. If he wanted horses, he couldn't just not feed them with grass. De Sheng Trading Company wanted 20%!”
"Mister Cai, 10% of the 'grass' can feed the horses until the end of time.”
…………
The benefits involved in penicillin were too great. One percent of its value far exceeded the entire Desheng Trading Company. Cai Chun was calculative. His saliva flew everywhere. He tore off his buttons and was like a hooligan who was scolding Gu Zhou.
Gu Zhou refuted them one by one. The two of them played with each other. The air was filled with saliva. After an hour, both sides took a step back.
Desheng Trading Company will take 1.5%!
1.5 Success was Gu Zhou's bottom line and also the goal of the De Sheng Trading Company.
After reaching an agreement, the two of them returned to their friendly state. They looked at each other and smiled, and the tense atmosphere disappeared.
Cai Chun frowned and hesitated as he moved on to the next topic.""Mr. Gu, I agree with the Dexing Trading Company's bid price for penicillin, but is it too high to bid three hundred times the price of gold of the same weight?”
