Chapter 594: Using delicious canned beef as a reward is a good deal
After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands again. Heihu, who had been waiting outside, came in with two boxes in his arms. He ordered his men to put the boxes on the table, take out the contents, and place them in front of Mr. Cui Si, then left.
Mr. Cui picked up the item in front of him and introduced it in detail: "I think both of you are familiar with the contents of this bottle. They are sulfa tablets brought back from abroad. Their efficacy is top-notch even abroad."
After hearing this, Young Master Li immediately asked excitedly, "Master Cui, is this the sulfa tablet that your Dafengtang sells in small quantities on the black market?"
It's no wonder that he became so excited after hearing about this matter. The main reason is that ever since this miraculous healing medicine with amazing efficacy appeared on the black market in Tianjin, it immediately caused a sensation among everyone. Anyone who has a little money on them wants to buy a few pills for self-defense.
After all, in this world, no one knows whether they will get injured one day, so carrying some anti-inflammatory drugs on you is a precautionary measure, and sulfa tablets are undoubtedly the best choice.
It’s a pity that Dafengtang uses hunger marketing, selling a fixed number of 500 pills every month. Since everyone wants them, only the highest bidder can win.
The Li family also bought a lot of it, and the effect was really great. Young Master Li even gave some of it as a gift to the Consul of the Niu Niu Country, who was on good terms with him. After testing the efficacy of the medicine, he was also amazed.
Consul William obtained the test effect data of sulfa tablets from his subordinates and found that they were far superior to those sulfa tablets produced in their country, and even far superior to those produced by Sandezi's family. This was a bit exaggerated.
Therefore, this astute foreigner asked Mr. Li to buy a large amount of this top-grade sulfonamide, and their Niu Niu country would pay a high price. It is self-evident what he was thinking.
However, what Kong Hao created through the system is not so easy to imitate. At least with the current technology, it will take one or two years. Otherwise, we would not be selling it on such a large scale.
As for two years later, the penicillin in our base will have already mastered all the technologies for large-scale mass production. When faced with this dimensionality reduction attack, Kong Hao will only want to say: "Haha".
Young Master Li also discovered a great business opportunity, but unfortunately the amount of sulfa tablets on the black market was limited, and even if one had money, one might not be able to buy large quantities.
After hearing this, Mr. Cui Si continued, "Yes, that's the kind. And in the future, if you help transport supplies, you can use sulfa tablets to settle the bill. The price will be half of the black market price."
In fact, this was also something Kong Hao specifically instructed. As the production of sulfa tablets in our base increases, in addition to meeting our own needs, we can also sell large quantities to the outside world.
Of course, this is only limited to the people in the base area and the Kuomintang-controlled areas. Tianjin is still occupied by the Japanese. If we sell them in large quantities at low prices, it will only benefit the Japanese, which is not what we want to see.
At most, it is circulated privately, first sold at high prices to wealthy customers, and then provided to the people in urgent need through our internal staff.
When Young Master Li heard about this good thing, he couldn't wait to say, "Don't talk about the second one, we want the first one. From now on, all your supplies will be covered by our Li family."
"Me too!"
However, when Captain Wang said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly continued to make amends:
"Young Master Li, you can't take advantage of this opportunity alone. In terms of logistics alone, our Sihailou ranks second in Tianjin, and no one dares to rank first. Moreover, we have a large number of branches throughout China, and we can transport the materials to the destination provided by the employer at the fastest speed."
Young Master Li also understood at this time that when it comes to material transportation, their Li family really cannot compete with Sihailou, so he asked tentatively:
"Then we two families will each take half."
"Okay, half for each family."
Master Cui was extremely happy to see that the two families had reached an agreement, and that it was pretty much what he had expected. In his opinion, the matter was halfway done.
"I say, you two should listen to my second payment plan, which will also be of great benefit to you."
"The second option we offer is to pay with various materials. Depending on the length of the journey, the payment is between 50% and 10% of the materials transported."
"This time our cargo includes a large amount of canned meat. Today we would like to invite you two to try some. You can make a decision after you have tasted them."
After saying that, he pushed two cans and two pairs of chopsticks in front of Young Master Li and Captain Wang. Then he picked up one, opened it and started eating.
Given the status and position of Young Master Li and his companion, they seldom ate canned food. After all, such food was too scarce in China and was mostly available in the army. Moreover, they were heard to not taste very good.
But it was hard to refuse such a kind invitation, and they would have to do business with Dafengtang in the future, so they tried it with reluctance. Even if it didn't taste good later, they still forced themselves to swallow it, so as not to let others down.
But when Young Master Li opened the can, he found that it was actually canned beef, so he said in surprise:
"This is actually canned beef, and the chunks are this big. This is really rare. I wonder how it tastes?"
Although with his status, it is not a big deal for him to eat beef, but the price is not low, and he can't eat it whenever he wants. At least he has to prepare in advance.
Then he picked up the beef with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, slowly tasting it. He had to say that the taste of this canned food was quite good. The beef was handled very cleanly without any peculiar smell, and a lot of seasonings were added. All in all it was very delicious, especially since it was his first time to eat this kind of canned meat. It had a unique flavor with a rich meaty aroma and clear soup.
Of course, the taste is definitely incomparable to the delicacies carefully cooked by those chefs, but it is truly rare for a canned food that can be mass-produced to achieve this level.
After eating one piece, Mr. Li couldn't help but pick up a few more pieces. He didn't put down his chopsticks until he had eaten four or five pieces. He also took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth. This was a habit he developed when he usually dined with foreigners.
However, Captain Wang on the side did not have such particularities. He was a rough man and practiced martial arts regularly. He could eat several bowls of rice and a pound of meat in one meal, so this small can was no problem at all.
In just a short while, he ate the entire can, even the soup. After finishing, he wiped his mouth with his palm and exclaimed loudly:
"Great! I haven't eaten something this delicious in a long time. I've also eaten the Japanese canned food before. Compared to this, the canned food sold at such a high price on the black market is just like pig food."
"By the way, Master Cui, you just said that if we take on the job of transporting supplies, we can get this kind of canned food as a reward."
