Section 135: A Trip to Foshan (1)

 Chapter 135: Trip to Foshan (1)

"One thousand doses of Zhuge Xingjun Powder and 3,000 doses of Biwen Powder. All are underwritten." Liu San had already thought about it. He would mainly use this batch of medicine for himself - after all, summer heatstroke prevention and epidemic prevention are a big deal - Minister Shi had been interfering.

The matter of anti-stroke medicines.

The second step is to use it as a sample and sell it to surrounding cities and mainland cities to see how well it is accepted by the indigenous people of this time and space. Medicine is a thing that saves people and saves the world. It is far more powerful and penetrating in expanding the influence of travelers.

For luxury goods such as glass.

Yang Shixiang was shocked: "Is it too much?"

"Not much, how much summer medicine is used in Bairen City alone. There are tens of thousands of people there now. Committee member Wu inside said that there are as many such medicines as you need..." Liu San hinted to him, don't forget.

Chuan Chuan Group is also a huge consumer group. Yang Shixiang's business sense is too slow. By the way, he will brag about his so-called "relationship" - of course, in fact, there is no need for any relationship. Wu De and Liu San are just acquaintances.

That's all, but Chinese people have always attached great importance to personal relationships, so this can be considered a reassurance for him.

"In this case, we have to go to the subcontinent." Yang Shixiang made up his mind. "Although some medicinal materials are available in Qiongshan County, they are not enough for the quantity. We have to go to the big herbal medicine store in Guangzhou to purchase them. But-" He hesitated.

Liu San guessed that he must not have enough capital. Although medicines such as musk and bezoar are not as good as ginseng antler, rhino horn and the like, making so many medicines still requires a lot of expenses.

"I can advance part of the medicine payment..."

"No, no, no, how can this be done!" Yang Shixiang quickly stopped, "There is no such rule! The business has not started yet, and I want you to advance money first."

"Why is there no such rule?" Liu San said with a smile, "In this way, it counts as me buying a share! It can be used as capital."

"This -" Yang Shixiang hesitated, but the temptation of this deal and the two prescriptions was too great. Although he had some habits of a playboy, in fact he still hoped to make something famous out of his family business. He thought about it.

He thought and nodded.

Liu San secretly laughed in his heart, and now he was halfway done with "buying shares". In fact, you still have to thank me, he thought to himself: Now that Chuanchuan Group is a super potential stock, if you let me buy shares, you will be waiting for yourself to buy shares.

——The cost will be much cheaper than buying shares ten years later. By then, not only you, your descendants, but also your associates and their descendants will all be grateful for your wisdom today.

Decide.

"Okay, Manager Liu." He greeted, "Calculate how many medicinal materials we need to buy based on the number of doses, and how much stock our store has. Check it out. There is no need to unpack my luggage. You can send someone to Bo's shop to order some.

A boat ticket."

Gaoguang Shipping Company, which transports cargo on the Lingao-Guangzhou route, uses the extra space on the ship to open regular flights to carry passengers and cargo between Guangzhou and Lingao. The fare is very cheap, although the environment is simple.

It has also attracted some business travelers between Lingao and Guangzhou - but this business is not big, and the number of guests traveling between the two places is quite limited.

Seeing that he acted vigorously and resolutely without being sloppy, this was a good sign. Liu San took the opportunity to suggest: "Since we are going to Guangzhou, how about a trip to Foshan?"

"Why are you going to Foshan? These snobs!"

"The so-called one and the other. In the past, Runshitang's performance was not good, and you came to them to ask for help. The so-called world is so cold, and the attitude is naturally cold. But now you have a big deal in your hands, and you are buying them with real money. It’s not like we don’t want to do business with the medicinal materials delivered to our door, right? Besides, we are still close relatives.”

"To say that the types of medicinal materials are complete and authentic, the goods of my uncles and uncles are also very good. However," Yang Shixiang had a look of dissatisfaction on his face. He probably went over and saw many people's faces and cold eyes, "for this money, I I really don’t want them to earn it.”

"It's better to let them make money." Liu San followed suit, "How big is Lingaocai and how many people are there? Even if the medicine can be sold to the entire Qiongzhou Prefecture, how many households can there be? To sell medicine, you still have to go there. mainland!"

This kind of summer-repellent medicine has a huge market in Guangdong and Guangdong. Runshitang is trapped in a corner of Lingao and has not had contact with mainland pharmaceutical companies and colleagues for a long time. It is equivalent to being out of touch with the market of medicinal materials in mainland China. If you want to enter the Guangdong market, you have to He had to rely on the help of local drug stores. Yang Shixiang naturally understood what he meant - he wanted to use his relatives in Foshan to expand the market.

Thinking this way, he felt relieved. Yang Shixiang nodded deeply: "Thank you, Doctor Liu, for teaching me!" He then asked, "I don't know if Doctor Liu can walk far away from here. If it's convenient, come with me." How about a trip to Foshan?”

Liu San had originally wanted to propose that he go to Foshan with him, and was just thinking about how to say it. Now he took the initiative to propose, which was a wish he wanted, and he immediately agreed.

Liu San wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the inside of the Chinese medicine companies in this time and space and observe their business models and methods. He had heard many past stories about century-old pharmacies from pharmacists of the older generation, but they were basically from the Qing Dynasty. The information after the middle period is more than a hundred years behind the present, so it is of little reference value.

Liu San returned to his residence, quickly rode his bicycle to Bairen City, and reported to Shi Niaoren first. Shi Niaoren praised him greatly, saying that his work efficiency was really high, but it was a little too high - His report requesting funding has not yet been approved. If he sets out tomorrow, he may not have anywhere to get the money. In addition, it was learned that this matter will be discussed with the Foreign Affairs and Trade Committee in charge of trade. In theory, this is their scope of authority.

Shi Niaoren made phone calls and sent documents everywhere. Liu San sat alone in the office, staring boredly at the nurses walking back and forth in the corridor. An hour later, Shi Niaoren came back.

"Everything is done." Shi Niaoren excitedly put the document bag in his hand on the table, "Both the Executive Committee and the Foreign Trade Committee support your plan. In addition to allocating you four hundred taels of silver according to your application, An additional one hundred taels will be allocated. In addition, you asked for some medicines as samples, and the Planning Committee agreed - ten boxes of each."

"Thank you for your leadership support..."

"Don't worry, you are not going alone, there is a team."

"ah?"

"Well, Foshan is a big town. The ceramics and textile industries are very developed. The Work Energy Commission wants to send someone to Foshan to take a look at the local industrial conditions and see if they can recruit some craftsmen. The current demand for ceramics

It’s getting bigger and bigger.”

"Okay, let's go together. But what is his identity?"

"Just say they are your friends. The Intelligence Committee will assign a servant to each of you - this is the intern of the first intelligence training class. You should pay more attention to them!"

"Here, isn't this team too luxurious?" Liu San originally planned to go alone and follow Yang Shixiang in a relaxed manner, but now it seems that he has mobilized a large number of people.

"This is a good infiltration opportunity, and the executive committee will naturally seize it." Shi Niaoren said, "There are not many people, so hurry up and get ready. Meet at Bopu tomorrow." He handed over an envelope.

Give him, "This is the fee allocated to you, please sign for it."

Liu San signed. Inside the envelope were several mulberry paper notes, which were beautifully printed. The format and pattern imitated modern bank checks. They were payable to Delong Bank, and the denominations were written in capital letters below. They were all fifty taels each.

, a brand new ticket.

"This is a note from Delong Bank. It was just issued in Guangzhou not long ago." Shi Niaoren said, "There are not many places where it can be exchanged. Here are the names and addresses of various banks that agree to accept the note." He gave him a

Zhang Danzi said, "What a coincidence, Delong's acceptance shop in Foshan town is exactly a medicine store."

"If anything, it was Yang Shixiang's relatives who drove it."

"I don't know. But with this banknote, it will be very convenient to go out to do errands. Otherwise, you would have to go to Guangzhou Station to get money first."

After the executive committee came up with the idea of ​​opening a bank during the Leizhou Sugar War, Cheng Dong and Yan Ming acted quickly. It didn't take long to come up with a complete set of bank organizational management systems, fund allocation, and exchange systems. For this purpose

In response to this incident, several main persons in charge of the Guangzhou Station were recalled to Lingao in turn to hold a meeting to discuss the matter.

After discussion, the final decision was:

Delong Bank was established separately in Guangzhou. It was an independent enterprise on the surface - because Meng Xian did not look like a Ming Dynasty person, it was not easy to pretend to be a local. Therefore, the nominal owner was a relative of Shen Fan.

Tong Sheng, his writing skills are not bad, and he can also manage copywriting in addition to his name. The actual manager is naturally Meng Xian.

The business of Delong Bank is more similar to that of later generations of banks, rather than a modern bank. First of all, it does not engage in loan business, but only deposits and exchanges. Of course, it was difficult for Delong Bank in Guangzhou to accept deposits when it opened - it

There is no reputation and credit yet. Therefore, the deposit customers are actually only three commercial banks under the Guangzhou Station. In addition to the principal, operating funds, profits and other funds of these three companies, there are also deposits absorbed through Zizhenzhai and Zichengji

.

Delong Bank effectively supervises the flow of funds in Guangzhou Station through the management of public accounts, and also eliminates the need to transport large sums of money between Guangzhou and Lingao - just transfer the money to the bank account, and then use

Just telegraph the notification.

Delong's exchange business, in order to start the business as quickly as possible, Meng Xian first conducted a simple and primitive joint-number exchange business in the Pearl River Delta region. This was also a common business method used by Shanxi bank accounts in the Qing Dynasty: in places where there was a lot of money flow,

Find large-name merchants with strong strength and frequent trade activities as acceptance joint numbers. The money orders issued by Delong can be redeemed according to the code on these joint numbers. On the contrary, the money orders issued by these joint numbers will be accepted by Delong in Guangzhou.

Between accounts, the accounts are cleaned up once a month, and the transactions between the two parties are settled through remittances.
