Chapter 1077 Become a female knight who controls the dragon!
The three characters "antibiotics" were clearly written on the white paper.
It is no secret that fungal antibiotics were discovered by Dr. Fleming in 1928. Over the years, not only the Empire has been researching, but the United States has also not fallen behind. This naturally includes in the fields of medical and education.
The Rockefeller consortium invested huge amounts of money.
During World War I, many soldiers died not from fatal wounds caused by bullets, but from bacterial infections in their wounds.
Fleming, who once went to the German and French front lines to study the prevention of wound infections, was not an unknown person. He and his mentor Wright confirmed that the antiseptics used on the battlefield at that time actually had no effect on the disinfection of traumatic wounds.
The bacteria were not really killed, but instead killed the phagocytes of the human body, making the wound more susceptible to malignant infection. Dr. Fleming put forward the famous constructive suggestion of using concentrated salt water to flush the wound. Unfortunately, this suggestion
It was not widely adopted until World War II.
Of course, in this era of lack of 'antibiotics', Tang Dao had early adopted the suggestions put forward by the doctor who eventually won the Nobel Prize in Medicine more than ten years ago. The health soldiers attached to the company and platoon were giving soldiers
Before bandaging the wound, the wound will be rinsed with concentrated salt water. Although it is very painful, it indirectly reduces the chance of bacterial infection, thus saving the lives of many soldiers.
In Si Xing Tuan, the mortality rate due to bacterial infection was 20 percentage points lower than the normal mortality rate, which is enough to prove the effect of this suggestion that has not been widely adopted so far.
Although research in European and American countries has not made significant progress so far, ‘antibiotics’ that can inhibit wound infection are the key to saving the lives of tens of millions of soldiers. For the past ten years, there has been no interruption in financial investment.
Laura, who is at the core of Rockefeller, naturally knows that her great-grandfather was determined to this kind of 'antibiotics' that only existed due to the accidental discovery of experimental results. In five years, the Rockefeller family invested at least more than 5 million.
A US dollar is almost equivalent to investing in a medium-sized enterprise.
However, the research that invested huge amounts of money did not see the light of day. Until Laura left the United States, the extracted 'antibiotics' poisoned a large area of the experimental mice. That thing could not only save people, but also kill people.
It is first-class strong.
As a result, in China, whose civilization is at least two dimensions behind the West, someone actually told her that there were samples of 'antibiotics'. Isn't this funny? If it were someone else who said it.
But the person who wrote these three words was Tang Dao.
If Tang Dao had written these three words an hour ago, Laura would have regarded him as a lunatic. But after seeing more of this man’s magic during the entire negotiation process, Laura knew that Tang Dao would definitely not be a psychopath.
The kind of person who talks nonsense.
He would basically do what he said, including the design drawings he had drawn in front of her before and the various performance parameters that were so detailed that it made her scalp numb. He said that he was an extremely outstanding mechanical engineer, and I guarantee that no one would doubt it.
But these miracles are nothing compared to ‘antibiotics’.
"Colonel Tang, do you know what these three words you wrote mean?" Laura tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart and looked at Tang Dao with some expectation.
"Of course I know that once this fungal antibiotic discovered by Dr. Fleming is successfully developed, it can save thousands of patients with wound infections and sepsis, and human medical civilization will take a big step forward." Tang Dao said with a smile.
Smile, be confident and determined. "And, money will be rolling in!"
At this point, Laura finally understood why Tang Dao said that the cooperation was happy.
The so-called cooperation does not only mean that Tang Dao provides funds. The Rockefeller Consortium purchases materials and transports them to China. In fact, most of the initiative does not lie with Tang Dao. The Rockefeller Consortium can delay the goods for various reasons such as bad weather and rampant piracy.
deliver.
In the war years, supplies were king, and no matter how rich the donor dad was, he might not be able to buy everything.
But now, when Tang Dao comes up with the so-called "antibiotics", as long as he does not lie, he will truly have the capital to negotiate on an equal footing with the Rockefeller Group.
Because Laura understands very well the value that "antibiotics" can create. As long as the war starts, "antibiotics" will become a type of strategic material reserve in all countries, and there will be crazy sales of hundreds of millions or even billions, even if
The profit of one antibiotic is only US$1, which will be a profit of more than one billion US dollars.
Laura was still too cautious. With the outbreak of the war in the future, the price of penicillin skyrocketed, and even the market for penicillin was even more exaggerated. In China, it was even more exaggerated. Take 1949 as an example. Due to extreme scarcity, the price of one penicillin was
Big yellow croaker has completely become a life-saving medicine that only the rich can afford.
Such a huge and terrifying figure made even the daughter of the Rockefeller Foundation feel a little confused at that moment.
This wealth will not only have a huge impact on the Rockefeller Foundation, but it will also be of great significance to her personally.
If there were cruel fights within the family before, even the leaders of the consortium who strongly controlled the consortium, such as her great-grandfather and grandfather, had to send her to the Far East to stay away from the whirlpool of struggle to protect her, then when she got it for the consortium,
The moment Antibiotics' returns with billions of dollars in profits, all obstacles will be wiped out.
"How can it be proved?" Laura could no longer maintain her usual composure, and asked with an almost trembling voice.
"I came to Jincheng this time and brought 5 samples with me. With Miss Laura's ability, I think one week is enough to prove it! I will stay in Jincheng for another ten days." Tang Dao smiled and took it from his pocket.
He took out five tightly wrapped glass bottles from his briefcase and placed them one by one in front of Laura.
"As long as we have enough special equipment for medical production, I can prove to Miss Laura that we have enough capabilities to mass produce it."
"Okay, give me a week. As long as you don't lie, Colonel Tang, I can agree to all the requests you made previously on behalf of my family. Moreover, if you have transportation difficulties, we can also provide relevant assistance."
Looking at the five inconspicuous small bottles, Laura's sea-blue eyes flashed with determination.
For this medicine that is about to change an era, Laura is determined to get it.
At the same time, her promise also shows that the Rockefeller family will help China only on the basis that both parties can cooperate on an equal footing. If Tang Dao lies or the medicine fails to achieve the expected effect, the previous negotiations will be nothing more than manipulation. Talkative.
In the eyes of capital, everything is just a deal. No matter how strong Tang Dao's negotiation skills are, everything is in vain until capital is impressed.
Of course, this young man and woman are both smart people.
Laura was not stupid enough to ask Tang Dao if the drug was effective, what if she secretly took it back to China to reverse engineer it and copy it?
Tang Dao gave her a week and actually told her the answer in disguise. There were not only Americans in the Western Concession, but also Germans, Romans, people from the Empire, the French, and Americans. Tang The knife can smash the pot, and no one can have a full meal.
Medicinal powder is not flour, and mold purification does not take a day or two. Reverse research and imitation require enough time. If you want to take advantage of this fat, you must obtain the technology and register a patent in the United States. Even if other countries imitate in the future, they will still need to submit a patent. usage fee.
Tang Dao did not ask for any contracts or agreements to be written down first, because he believed that with Laura's wisdom, she would not be so short-sighted.
Moreover, penicillin technology is not too important to Tang Dao. In just two years, penicillin will be available in the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. Tang Dao’s biggest purpose in taking out this thing at this moment is still to collect American imperialism’s wool, and the ability to achieve penicillin freedom in the Taihang Mountains.
"Okay, Miss Laura, see you in a week!" Tang Dao saw that the foundation for cooperation between the two parties had been laid, and he simply stood up and left.
"Colonel Tang, let me see you off!" Laura put the five bottles of medicine on the table into her handbag and stood up to see them off.
As a result, the employees of the Citibank China Jincheng Branch saw such a strange scene. Ms. Laura, the shareholder representative who was unattainable in their eyes, actually sent a Chinese man out of the door without saying a word, and stood at the door looking at the man. The figure walking away stood frozen for a long time, looking "sad and lost".
Of course they didn't know the last conversation between the young man and woman before they parted.
"As we were about to part ways, I suddenly remembered that Colonel Tang, you said before that you first believed in the integrity of my Rockefeller family, but the second reason seemed not to be mentioned. Can you tell me about this second reason? I'm very curious." Laura was saying goodbye. Before, I suddenly asked Tang Dao this question.
"The second reason?" Tang Dao showed a bright smile again, and glanced at the heavily armed black muscular man who was only five or six meters away from Laura. He didn't answer directly, but turned around and waited outside the door. Mingxin left together.
"Miss Laura is so smart, so just guess, and you'll win a prize if you guess right!" Tang Dao's voice came from far away, having already walked more than 20 meters away.
I guess DER! At that moment Laura really wanted to hit someone.
Even though Tang Dao has a tall and slender figure, a good-looking face, and a sunny smile, which is in line with the aesthetics of most women, especially Western women with strong personalities, when she sincerely wanted to get an answer, she only got a "guess" But Laura really wanted to punch someone in the face with an 80-point punch.
It's just too much pretense.
Really, even if they are ugly, Laura can accept someone showing off for the sake of money, but someone’s almost arrogant self-confidence is really infuriating.
But the key is that his arrogance and confidence are never groundless. Facts have proved that he has enough confidence, and not just because he has tens of millions of dollars.
He was a type of man that Laura had never seen before, handsome and cunning, arrogant and confident.
Fortunately, the future person in charge of the Rockefeller family not only had super self-control, but also had wisdom far beyond ordinary people. Soon, she began to think about the meaning behind it.
The back of the Chinese man striding away was still tall and straight.
"Miss, that man is very dangerous. Try to have as little contact with him as possible in the future." The black guard suddenly warned the foreign girl in an extremely cautious and serious voice.
"Why, he is alone. Is it possible that James, with your skills and your team members, are still afraid of him?" Laura's eyelids trembled slightly, her sea-blue eyes continued to stare at Tang Dao's retreating back, and she whispered softly
replied.
Since the Rockefeller Foundation dared to place the fourth-generation first heir of the family in war-torn China, it was naturally well prepared.
Laura is not only protected by a retired Marine Corps lieutenant, but also a fully armed team of 16 people, divided into 4 groups of 4 people each group on a 6-hour rotation system, not far from Laura
Warning within 50 meters.
This group of security guards, all of whom are retired soldiers and have received strict security training, earns a monthly salary of up to US$1,000 per person. If compared with the future based on purchasing power, this is equivalent to an annual salary of up to US$300,000 per person.
In addition to the high military quality of its personnel and the sophisticated equipment, the U.S. Army has not yet made the popular Garand semi-automatic rifle the standard equipment for individual soldiers. In addition, individual soldiers are also equipped with Colt 1911 pistols and even two light machine guns.
and rifle grenades.
Not to mention protecting a Lara Croft, with this equipment, it can engage in an offensive and defensive battle with a Japanese infantry squadron.
This is only the one closest to Laura. In addition, there is an armed team scattered in the concession in the name of the Rockefeller family's industrial escorts, with a total of 200 people and the heavy firepower of 3 heavy machine guns and 3 mortars.
Once there is a crisis, everything will fall under the command of James Bond, and Laura will be escorted as quickly as possible to an armed freighter equipped with artillery and machine guns at the port of Jincheng.
The troops stationed in the concession also received military orders and will do their best to ensure Laura's safety. If they want to endanger Laura's life, unless Japan and Western countries go to war and heavy troops attack the concession, Laura's life will be safe.
"My commander once told me not to provoke a wounded beast. It is even more dangerous than provoking a lion." Fear flashed in the eyes of the big black muscular man. "The blood flowing from that man's hands is enough to fill the body
That trench."
The glance that Tang Dao glanced at him just now was unremarkable, but to this Marine Corps lieutenant who had received special training in the military for several years, it was like being stared at by a prehistoric beast. At that moment, he could even clearly understand
The hair on his face was cold and the cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.
That's not the malice in Tang Dao's eyes, but purely the instinctive fear that arises when lower creatures face higher creatures. To put it bluntly, there is a gap similar to the dimension.
"He is that strong?" Laura said it was hard to believe.
"Yes, I even feel that there is a sharpshooter watching us from a distance. If we make any move, I will be the first to die." The dark muscular man glanced into the distance and used his broad body without revealing any traces. Stop Laura.
It wasn't for Tang Dao's glance that completely inspired his fighting instinct. He really didn't feel that he was being stared at by a gun from a few hundred meters away, but he felt it at that moment.
"This big black charcoal is great! You can actually feel my presence." In the attic of a restaurant 280 meters away, Shen Laoliu looked away from the quadruple scope, grinning and praising his tactics. Black escort in action.
"However, the reaction is still a little slow? If I want to kill that little girl, I have many opportunities." Shen Laoliu skillfully disassembled the Czech semi-automatic rifle, and then put all the disassembled parts into a black bag .
After all, this was in the concession. Although he had a pass specially issued by the concession commander, walking around with a gun on his shoulder was still too conspicuous. He really thought that there were no Japanese spies in the concession!
"To use an old Chinese proverb, you are called a snake shadow. James, relax. This is not a battlefield. There are more than 3,000 soldiers and hundreds of police stationed here. It is very safe. That guy is a soldier, and he has a high military rank. For a high-ranking soldier, it is normal for him to have armed guards around him." Laura frowned slightly, slightly dissatisfied with how nervous her personal guard was.
After all, this is Citibank and her territory. It turns out that the arrogant man is so lucky. A look in his eyes caused cold sweat to break out on the nervous forehead of his most trusted guard.
If she hadn't seen with her own eyes that James had knocked down a strong family guard with his bare hands in a one-on-eight battle, and had the ability to accurately hit a whiskey bottle from 400 meters away, she would have really considered whether to change her guard captain. .
"Miss..." The swarthy muscular man actually wanted to say, not to mention Tang Dao, but the young man waiting for Tang Dao outside the door was not simple. Regardless of firearms, he was probably no match.
James Bond just wanted to remind his lady out of the instinct of a soldier that it is best not to use too strong methods against people like Tang Dao.
God, did his old man say: Anything that can be solved with money is no big deal to the Rockefeller family.
"Okay, I know what to do." Laura waved her hands a little depressed, stopping her guard captain from making any further suggestions.
Until she walked into the office alone and glanced at the wooden chair where Tang Dao sat, her eyes suddenly became dull.
On the armrest of the wooden chair, which was made of fine oak, there were five clearly distinguishable fingerprints, as if there was heavy dust floating on it and the fingers had inadvertently left it there.
But the foreign girl knew that was impossible. Professionals would come in to clean this office every four hours.
Needless to say, it was left by that arrogant but well-capitalized Chinese man, who pressed it on the hard oak wood with his fingers.
"Oh! You bought it, what kind of monster is this!" Laura finally figured out Tang Dao's second reason in the flash of lightning.
If Rockefeller or Citibank dared to default on their debts, they would touch the heads of all Americans here like tender oak.
Business may not be his strong suit, but killing is!
Lieutenant James' feeling was right, that man was very dangerous.
However, no matter how dangerous it is, if he hopes to win this war with the Japanese, doesn't he have to ask her to help import various goods?
"I really have an intuition this time. More than 90% of what you said, dangerous man, is true." He reached out and placed the five small glass bottles containing white powder on the table, horrified.
After that, the fear in the sea-blue eyes disappeared, replaced by full of eagerness, muttering softly to himself.
"No wonder my great-grandfather said, 'Being a dragon slayer is easy, all you need is a gun. Only when you learn to control the dragon can you be a true warrior!', this is really exciting and interesting!"
The future controller of Rockefeller, his favorite quote is none other than the words of Julius Caesar: I come, I see, I conquer!
