Sun Simiao was inspired by the various new "factories" in Chang'an that were different from the previous workshops, and started the large-scale production of penicillin. After all, the output was guaranteed, and the people were not completely unable to buy the medicine.
It's because the people's financial resources are limited, and their energy is also limited. After all, they are still busy making a living. Under such circumstances, there are a large number of wealthy households rushing to grab penicillin. It is too difficult for ordinary people to grab this opportunity if they want to buy it.
.
Affordable original sources of goods are difficult to obtain. If people need medical treatment, they can only go to the private black market or the secondary market to buy third-party goods. And in this way...
It is understandable that the price has skyrocketed and ordinary people are miserable. Even under such circumstances, the penicillin on the black market is often sold with an extra pill broken into two pills or mixed with flour.
Fake sales... These are still relatively conscientious and relatively shameless scalpers, while those who are not too conscientious and shameless will even mix mud into the medicine.
As for how effective this medicine mixed with soil or flour can be, Sun Simiao couldn't answer it - in fact, it can be answered, but it will definitely be greatly reduced, but it is too difficult to bear.
However, there is such serious hoarding and speculation...
After the second batch of drugs came out, Sun Simiao immediately exposed them all as soon as the price increased!
Of course, Sun Simiao didn't understand at that time...
The principle behind this is actually the bubble and the bursting of bubbles in later generations.
The so-called hoarding and speculation is, in the final analysis, a kind of bubble. After such a bubble, once expectations are shaken, the original bubble will suddenly collapse. And this expectation of penicillin...
The expectations of penicillin itself are of course well-known and have a bright future.
But the expectations for penicillin prices are actually lower!
After all, the Tang Dynasty was ancient times. On the other hand...it is absolutely conceivable what the ingredients of those who can get money to speculate on medicines are. They are all people who have no bottom line and do anything. But...
From a certain point of view, although these do-it-all people are brave enough to take action, they are often not very smart. What's more, the "prospects of penicillin" are not equal to the prospects of "unit price of penicillin".
Li Er, even Wei Zheng, even Fang Xuanling, the top old foxes in China, may not be able to distinguish clearly.
It would be damning if these drug speculators could tell the difference clearly. So... not long after, as expected, as soon as the price of the factory affiliated with Chengxi Medical College increased, the true colors of the various drug speculators were revealed, and they couldn't hold back on the spot.
Of course... To be precise, it wasn't Sun Simiao who raised the price of penicillin that made them unable to hold back.
It's the huge output of penicillin that forces them to continue to consume large amounts of penicillin. Only by maintaining their monopoly can market profits be guaranteed. But it is conceivable that to consume such a large amount of penicillin, they will need absolutely no funds.
It's a heavenly level.
And at this juncture, when it was already very difficult and the penicillin monopoly needed to be sold to continue to maintain, Sun Simiao suddenly raised the price with a sudden stroke of genius... This group of people suddenly couldn't stand it any longer, and they began to sell off the penicillin in their hands to prepare for recovery.
The reason is also very simple. The weaker hoarders are still short of funds, and this kind of players... often have a stronger desire to get rich, and will directly borrow money from everywhere to carry out speculation and hoarding.
And if you do things like this, of course... you will be the first to run away and become the first domino when you can no longer keep the money.
As for speculation, no matter whether there is a loan to speculate, in fact, as long as additional funds flow in without real demand, it is a bubble - and since it is a bubble, of course it is a domino. So what happens next
It is conceivable...
Originally, on the black market in Chang'an, it took hundreds of coins to get a piece of goods from various unscrupulous traders, and it was often mixed with flour, mud, or other strange things. But in this second
During the past three months, the price of penicillin has plummeted like a waterfall, from hundreds of cents to more than ten cents in the blink of an eye. And more importantly, this penicillin has not been mixed with soil or flour.
The situation - no one knows where the flour, mud and mud medicines that are circulating everywhere have gone. This has directly become an annual urban legend in Chang'an this year, an unsolved mystery for the ages...
Under such circumstances, Sun Simiao was naturally finally satisfied, as if the sullenness he had been feeling for many years was finally released in one breath.
After all... As a doctor, what is your biggest wish? Of course, it is to treat the richest people and make you rich.
But for a top doctor, this wish can be imagined. Of course, it is to benefit the world and let his name be passed down forever in the field of medicine.
Although Sun Simiao worked hard to study many medicinal prescriptions, after all...these prescriptions are still far from truly benefiting the world. Most people do not have the conditions to visit reliable doctors and take serious medicinal materials to treat diseases.
Of course... Even so, being able to write a medical book and pass it on to future generations is already very rare. For most doctors in China, this is already an elusive achievement.
But Sun Simiao, like many great people and strong men in other fields in China, always hopes to do more things. Although Qin Shihuang was criticized by Confucian scholars for countless years, when he looked at the vast sea outside Qinhuang Island, the second grade student exclaimed,
In the end, it became a tourist attraction and will be remembered forever by the young people of later generations.
What ordinary people can do when they are sick is often to go to the village's third-rate Taoist priests or ragged monks to ask for a bowl of talisman water or a bowl of Guanyin soil, which is considered to be cured. In this case...
From ancient times to the present, there has never been a generation, a hero, or an Apricot Grove sage who has changed this common phenomenon...or rather the situation.
But this time... Sun Simiao knew for sure that the situation had really changed.
Normally... it is impossible for talisman water to cure diseases after all. The ashes of burning talisman paper are not any kind of medicinal materials, and I originally thought that there was a high probability that I would not be able to exchange these talisman water for reliable medical assistance in this life.
. But since the penicillin was combined with the factory, the output...
They really replaced the talisman water in the hands of the people with really reliable medical resources...
Although there are various processes, the final result is... a small and medium-sized news broke out in Chang'an City.
Miracle doctor Sun Simiao didn't know why, but one day he suddenly had an idea and became a monk!
It is said that in addition to researching medicine and medicine, today's miracle doctors also burn incense and pray every night...
