- The headquarters of Changfeng Business Group is located on a skyscraper more than 300 meters high in a prosperous area of ????Yiyang City. The entire building is shaped like a sailing boat. The outside of the building is covered with shiny fiberglass walls. The whole building is very stylish and is a landmark building in this area.
The Changfeng Merchant Group is a business group directly affiliated with the Zhang family. This business group not only extends its business tentacles to every place in Huaiyuan County, but also throughout the Hawaii subcontinent, the Changfeng Merchant Group is famous enough to qualify. Occupying a place among the top twenty largest business groups in the Hawaiian subcontinent.
The total assets of the Changfeng Merchant Group are 3.8 billion gold coins. The business group's operations involve banking, insurance, real estate, industry and mining, shipping, manufacturing, ports, overseas trade, arms, department stores, medicine, transportation, shipping, armed employment and many other fields. .
The business group has 870,000 direct employees. It has the largest armed fleet of the business group in the Hawaiian subcontinent. It is also the largest arms dealer in the Hawaiian subcontinent. The rune weapons sold by the Changfeng Merchant Group occupy the entire high-end military product market in the Hawaiian subcontinent. One-eighth of the total, and the war bows produced by Huaiyuantang Zhang sold by Changfeng Merchant Group monopolized more than 70% of the high-end war bow market in the entire Hawaiian subcontinent.
Huaiyuantang Zhang's war bows are famous all over the world. As long as they are warriors who use war bows as weapons, almost everyone does not know about Huaiyuantang's war bows. Many people also know that they own a high-end war bow produced by Huaiyuantang. Be proud of it.
From a certain perspective, Changfeng Merchant Group is a microcosm and a tentacle of the Zhang family in Huaiyuantang on the outside.
To manage such a huge business empire, as the headquarters of the Changfeng Merchant Group, one of its most important functions is to collect and analyze information sent from various places.
The headquarters of Changfeng Business Group has the largest crystal remote sensing communication center in Yiyang City. The number of people working in this crystal remote sensing communication center alone exceeds 1,000, using crystal remote sensing communication technology every moment. Information from various places in the Hawaiian subcontinent is gathered here through the various communication nodes of the Changfeng Business Group, like an invisible network, allowing the business group's headquarters to grasp all aspects of developments at any time.
The information gathered here is all-encompassing, including commodity price dynamics in various places, various business opportunities, special events happening in various places, and news about changes in the current situation in various places. In short, all the economies where the Changfeng Merchant Group is located, politics. News about culture, social dynamics and other aspects are all gathered here.
The information that Zhang Tie ordered 10,000 medicine bottles from Qianlongtang was also transmitted from Qianlongtang to the headquarters of Changfeng Merchant Group later on May 23.
The information transmitted through crystal remote sensing communication is just a series of remote sensing communication codes composed of signals of different durations. This information is first transmitted to the headquarters communication center of the Changfeng Business Group. In the lobby of the communication center, a remote sensing information transceiver at a communication station completely recorded the long and short signals on the recording paper. Sent a receipt message over there. Then he handed the recording paper to the auditor next to him.
Although it was already evening, the Crystal Remote Sensing Communication Center at the headquarters of Changfeng Business Group was still very busy with people coming and going. The auditor reviewed the communication code for a few seconds and found that there was no problem, so he came quickly with the recording paper. Arrive at the decoding office of the communication center.
"The information from Qianlong Island is sent using Fengxin B level three encryption code. Please translate it as soon as possible!"
After the staff at the decoding office got the communication record paper, they didn't waste much time and had already translated the message. The message contained only a very ordinary sentence.
"Zhang Tie, a student from Lingtian Academy, registered his own private pharmacy logo and ordered 10,000 pharmaceutical bottles at one time. He said that a large number of pharmaceutical bottles will be ordered in the short term, and the preliminary estimate is that the number will be no less than 100,000!" The quantity of medicine bottles ordered is abnormal, please pay attention to the business group! ¡±
After the people at the decoding office translated this sentence, they did not delay for half a minute. Instead, they quickly passed the information to the information center according to the process. After receiving the information, the staff of the information center immediately Time tells the information to be stored in the super brain in the information center.
The brain of the Changfeng Shangtuan Information Center is a Xuanyuan 7 large-scale steam computer from the Eastern Continent. The computer has 154,000 ultra-high-precision computing gears and parts, with a total weight of 513 tons. The cumulative circumference of its computing gears can circle Yiyang City twice. The entire steam computer uses three items: calculation, storage, and I/O. The separate design can also realize multiple output methods such as printing, drawing, punching, etc. In this era, this steam computer can undoubtedly symbolize the pinnacle of human achievements in the field of mechanical manufacturing.
Just a few minutes after the information about Zhang Tie was input into the storage device of the steam computer, an information analyst at the Changfeng Business Group Information Center immediately retrieved the information from the steam computer.In the intelligence correlation feedback output by the computer, three intelligence information links related to "Zhang Tie" and "Full Potion" received by the Changfeng Business Group in the past few days were discovered.
The earliest of these three intelligence information chains is the information sent by Zhang Guanshi from the Changfeng Pearl Farm of the Changfeng Merchant Group on Qianlong Island - Zhang Tieneng, a student of Lingtian Academy, has produced a special solution that is effective for rheumatism and arthritis. It has miraculous effects on many diseases such as gastric ulcers, and has great medicinal and promotional value. Manager Zhang suggested that the business group send people to contact Zhang Tie. They could acquire Zhang Tie's secret method of brewing that special solution or directly cooperate with him. , develop together, mass-produce that solution and then bring it to the market through business groups, achieving win-win cooperation.
The second information was two days later than the first. It was sent from Qianlong Hall - Zhang Tie, a student of Lingtian Academy, created a full-effect potion. It has been evaluated by Master Suyun. The effect of the potion has been evaluated. The results are as follows (omitted)
The third piece of information is the one I just received - Zhang Tie, a student from Lingtian Academy, registered his own private pharmaceutical ID and ordered 10,000 pharmaceutical bottles at one time. He said that there will be orders for a large number of pharmaceutical bottles in the short term. , the preliminary estimate is that the number is no less than 100,000! The quantity of medicine bottles ordered is abnormal. Please pay attention to the business group!
When Manager Zhang's first information came, he didn't know that the solution made by Zhang Tie was a super enzyme and a fully effective medicine. However, the second information from Qianlong Hall confirmed it. As for the true identity and efficacy of Zhang Tie's solution, the information coming out today indicates that Zhang Tie will later introduce his full-effect medicine to the market.
If there is no endorsement of the number of potion bottles. The value of these three pieces of information is not very great to the Changfeng Merchant Group. Of course, the value is relative to the size of the Changfeng Merchant Group.
For a superpower like the Changfeng Merchant Group, there is no shortage of alchemists to cooperate with it. Even the Changfeng Merchant Group and the Zhang family have trained many alchemists themselves, and these alchemists are capable of making various potions. With their abilities, many people can even make advanced potions.
Although the full-effect potions made by Zhang Tie have various magical effects, these effects are all based on the physiological functions of the human body. If measured according to the most stringent potion classification standards of the Alchemist Union, the full-effect potions made by Zhang Tie are Effective medicine. Its level is only between E-level potions and D-level potions. It is better than the first-level detoxification potion and has many functions, but those effects are slightly insufficient compared with other professional potions. This also determines that the price of this medicine is at most seven gold coins and less than ten gold coins. It cannot be sold more expensively.
For a medicine at this price level. In the eyes of many alchemists, they look down upon them. They usually don't even bother to spend time refining such "cheap" things. Take first-level detoxification potions as an example. Those who like to make money by refining such potions. They are Xuanhu Dan pharmacists who are not very high-level. The higher the level, after reaching the level of girdle elixir pharmacist, you can refine more valuable things.
But when the quantity of anything or anything accumulates to a certain level. It can lead to a leap from quantitative change to qualitative change.
If an ordinary Xuanhu Dan pharmacist can devote all his energy and time to refining first-level antidote potions in a year, the number of first-level antidote potions he can refine is estimated to be between 300 and 500. between branches.
Even if a higher-level alchemist refines these first-level antidote potions, even if Master Suyun comes in person, the number of first-level antidote potions he can refine in a year will not exceed 1,000. This is also This is the reason why many high-level alchemists are unwilling to refine low-level potions - even if they spend the same time and cost, the benefits are not as high as refining high-level potions.
¡°It¡¯s like using an advanced machine tool that can process the precision gears of a steam computer to process a few hoes and hammers. The same time and the same effort are used, but the processed items cannot be sold at a high price.
But how many medicine bottles did Zhang Tie order in the first batch?
Ten thousand, and there will be more later, possibly reaching one hundred thousand!
What is the concept? If this is the speed at which Zhang Tie can make full-effect potions, even if the full-effect potions refined by Zhang Tie are only used as first-order antidote potions, Zhang Tie's ability and speed to make first-order detoxification potions will be enough. It exceeded the efficiency of hundreds of Xuanhu Dan pharmacists working overtime to create first-order antidote potions.
Although the first-level detoxification potion is not expensive among various potions, it is a very important strategic material just like crystal, rice, flour and steel, and it is also one of the necessary combat materials for the army of all human nations.
In the past six months, as the situation on the mainland has become increasingly tense, the market prices of various pharmaceuticals, including first-order antidote pharmaceuticals, especially the prices of some basic strategic materials, have increased by at least 50%, and many forcesWe have been increasing and accelerating the reserve of "winter supplies".
Not to mention Huaiyuantang, but the entire Jinyun Kingdom, although it has increased its efforts to acquire various strategic materials, the number of first-level antidote medicines it stores is probably less than 100,000.
The information analyst who saw the last of the three intelligences almost doubted whether he had seen it wrong at first. How could someone need so many medicine bottles? After the information analyst confirmed that he had not seen it wrong. , the man's expression immediately changed, he stood up and rushed into his supervisor's office.
Only two minutes later, the director of the information center hurriedly left his office.
The director of the information center who left the office did not go to find other managers of the business group. Instead, he took the elevator directly and went directly to the office of the duty director of the business group on the 99th floor of the building as quickly as possible.
¡¡
"You are saying that the young man named Zhang Tie in Lingtian Academy is very likely to have mastered a method of manufacturing full-effect potions on a large scale. The speed at which he can make full-effect potions is not like that of other pharmacists. One-piece or small-batch manufacturing, and possibly large-scale production?¡±
In the nearly 1,000-square-meter office of the duty director of the business group, a man in his 50s, fair-skinned, but extremely temperamental and dignified stared at the director of the information center and asked seriously.
"It's like this. According to the information originally sent by our business group's manager of the Changfeng Pearl Farm on Qianlong Island, Zhang Tie generously gave large amounts of this medicine to several sick patrolmen at the pearl farm. Yasha and the staff at the bead field have at least more than ten kilograms, which is at least more than a hundred if converted into potions. If he could not easily make such potions, he would not give away so many things at once! "
"Only this?"
"Also, before this potion was confirmed to be a fully effective potion, Zhang Tie once regarded this kind of thing as a drink and drank a large amount of this kind of potion every day for a long period of time. Considering all aspects of the situation, plus With Zhang Tie ordering such a large number of potion bottles this time, it is almost certain that Zhang Tie is at least 80% likely to have mastered the method of mass-producing this potion! "
The director of the information center stood in front of the man's desk, bent slightly and answered respectfully.
The man in his fifties squinted his eyes slightly and tapped the bits of information on the table with his fingers. His eyes were fixed on Master Suyun's evaluation data of Zhang Tie's school-wide potions. He slowly He became solemn.
"Large scale" The duty director of Changfeng Business Group said the word softly, and it was like a flash of lightning flashed in his eyes.
Massive steel manufacturing capabilities¡massive food production capabilities¡massive armies¡massive funding¡massive slaughter¡massive human populations¡even massive ants¡ªanything , anything, as long as it can be connected with the three words "large scale", anything added after these three words will have a shocking power.
At this moment, what may be added after the three words "large scale" is E-level and above pharmaceuticals that no one has ever thought of - large-scale full-effect pharmaceutical production capabilities
"It seems that I have to go to Qianlong Island in person tomorrow!" The director of the Changfeng Merchant Group said calmly, "As for Zhang Tie's ordering so many medicine bottles, the matter of Zhang Tie's ordering of so many medicine bottles will be kept secret for now. There is no director of the business group. Approved, no one is allowed to access the intelligence information related to this!¡±
"Yes!" After answering, the director of the information center seemed to have thought of something, "Qianlong Island has sent the information on Zhang Tie's registered private label and ordering the first batch of 10,000 medicine bottles to the Jinyun Kingdom Pharmacy The teachers¡¯ union is here!¡±
Hearing this, the director of Changfeng Business Group frowned slightly
¡¡
At the same time, in a place outside Huaiyuan County, in a deep basement, two people were having a conversation. The voices of the two interlocutors were very cold, and the content of the conversation was very simple.
¡°Suddenly someone from Huaiyuantang Zhang¡¯s Qianlong Island ordered 10,000 uniformly labeled medicine bottles!¡±
"Ten thousand? Are they the people we know?"
"No, the medicine bottle uses a new logo - Manjushahua!"
"check!"
"yes!"
