1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

After the training, Lu Chen brought Qin Jian and his team to the factory.

Fu Mingzhuo was very unhappy when he saw Lu Chen. For two months, Lu Chen did not even show up, leaving all the factory affairs to him. This made him very busy during this period. As soon as they met, he complained to Lu Chen:

"Boss, even though you paid me, you can't just send someone to notify me and then disappear for two months without a word. You don't know how much work there is to do in the factory these two months, right?"

"Alright, alright, you're a bitch, you keep nagging here. I'll just give you a raise, no need to rush. You're just going to keep talking here, aren't you?"

Lu Chen interrupted Fu Mingzhuo's complaints impatiently. He said:

"Comrade, I'm handing the factory over to you, which means I trust you. If I don't interfere with your management of the factory, won't it be better for you to show your talents? Don't complain here. I see that the new factory building has been built. Tell me how the factory is going."

Fu Mingzhuo was still a little indignant, and he said to Lu Chen: "You don't know how to look at it yourself. Let me tell you, Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu have a lot of opinions about you. Let's see how you explain it later."

"It's none of your business how I explain it later. I don't want to look at those financial reports. You'd better just tell me directly."

Fu Mingzhuo felt that he had been unlucky for eight lifetimes by following his boss Lu Chen. But after all, it was the Lu family who saved his life. He could only accept his fate and reported:

"The factory has been expanded and the nylon production equipment has been moved to the new factory. The textile factory and laboratory have also been built. The equipment was purchased from the bankrupt factory and laboratory."

"The police station's order has been delivered, but there are problems with the sales of the tricycles. A large number of workers in the United States are now unemployed, and other countries have also increased tariffs on American goods, which makes it difficult to sell tricycles."

Lu Chen continued to ask:

"What about Professor Qian's research? How is it going?"

Fu Mingzhuo said, "We in the Commonwealth have invited Professor Fleming, who has agreed to come and help for a year. Now he and Professor Qian En have produced the finished product. The experiments on animals have been successful, and now all that's left is clinical trials. I can't solve this, so you need to figure it out on your own."

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll discuss this with someone. You don't have to worry about it."

Fu Mingzhuo continued, "There is another problem, which is the problem of manpower. My uncle and aunt learned in the past two months that the Chinese people here are not living a happy life, so they want to hire more Chinese people in the factory. But for some reason, the Chinese people don't seem to be willing to come to work here. We only hired a small number of Americans, and the factory is now very short of manpower."

When Lu Chen heard that the Chinese were unwilling to come, he knew that the Tiandihui was behind this. Lu Chen cursed in his heart, "Damn you Sun Yuanlin, I just couldn't find anyone to practice with and you showed up. I'll teach you a lesson this time."

Lu Chen said to Fu Mingzhuo, "Don't worry about the manpower issue. We don't need to use full capacity right now anyway. We will recruit people after a while."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Ming Zhuo, send all the tricycles to my eldest brother. Let them try them out. Then stop the production of tricycles and wait for news from my eldest brother."

Fu Mingzhuo said:

“If we don’t produce tricycles, then what do we produce?”

Lu Chen said, "Arrange everyone to work in the textile factory, and then produce the kind of socks (stockings) I told you about. After the socks are produced, find a few women with long legs to wear the stockings to promote them, and they will definitely be popular."

Fu Mingzhuo was somewhat suspicious of Lu Chen. He had said the same thing last time about his tricycles, but now few people came to buy them, and he only sold more than ten a month. At this time, he said the same thing again. Fu Mingzhuo said:

"I said, are those stockings you mentioned okay? Don't make them look like a tricycle again."

"After you give birth, find some beautiful women to wear them. After you have seen them yourself, tell me this. By the way, I will keep Qin Jian and the others here. They will be responsible for the safety here from now on."

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he prepared to return to the manor. He didn't dare to see the two elders now. He hadn't been there for such a long time, and they were probably very dissatisfied with him. If he went there, he would definitely be scolded.

Lu Chen had just walked out of Fu Mingzhuo's office when he was caught by Lu's father, who looked at Lu Chen with a gloomy face.

"Where have you been these past two months? I can't see you anywhere."

Lu Chen said quickly:

"I have something to do. Dad, you know I need to travel frequently. The place I'm on this trip is quite far away. So it will take a little longer."

Father Lu thought that Lu Chen was going to discuss the arms business. He said to Lu Chen:

"Now that you have a legitimate business here, you'd better not touch the harmful things like arms."

Seeing that his father did not blame him, Lu Chen immediately agreed:

"Okay, Dad, I'll try not to touch this stuff anymore."

Seeing that Lu Chen was being cunning, Mr. Lu snorted and ignored Lu Chen, and went straight to the office to discuss things with Fu Mingzhuo.

After Lu Chen realized that he had fooled the company, he quickly left the company.

Penicillin needed clinical trials, which he had no connection with. He thought that he had not contacted Adams for a long time. This was a good opportunity to contact him and see what he was doing.

Lu Chen picked up the phone and called Adams.

After a while, the call was connected, and then Lu Chen heard Adams' furious voice.

"No matter who you are, if you have no legitimate reason to come to me, you will accept the wrath of the Korlia family."

"Adams, you are so angry, is it because something good was disturbed?"

Adams calmed down when he heard Lu Chen's voice.

"It's you, Lu Chen. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Lu Chen joked, "Do you want me to call you after you're done? I see you're really mad, you need to go and vent your anger."

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm really upset recently. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll really get angry."

"Tell me what's bothering you."

Adams said impatiently: "Don't worry about my business. Tell me what you want to talk to me about. You won't call me if you have nothing to do."

Lu Chen said, "I want to ask if you have any connections in the hospital. I have a new drug that needs clinical trials."

Adams said, "Why are you looking for me for this matter? Let me tell you, Mr. Jess's family owns many hospitals. You can just go to him directly."

Lu Chen had never expected that the Jess family was actually in the medical field. He confirmed:

"Really? Their family is really in the medical field?"

"It's true. You should go find Mr. Jace. I have something else to do here."

Adams hung up the phone after saying that. Lu Chen picked up the phone again and called Jace.

"Hello, I'm Jace, what can I do for you?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Jess, I'm Lu Chen, I have something to talk to you about."

Perhaps it was because they hadn't been in touch for a long time, so Jace didn't reply immediately. After a while, Jace smiled and said:

"Excuse me, Mr. Lu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Jess's family is in the medical business. They even run several hospitals. I wonder if it's true."

"Yes, my family owns several hospitals in New York. Mr. Lu, do you want to see a doctor? I can help you contact a hospital with good medical standards."

"No, no, no, Mr. Jess, you're wrong. I'm looking for you because I have a new drug that needs clinical trials. I wonder if you can contact a hospital to help me do the experiment."

Jess thought for a moment and said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Lu, it's like this. Clinical trials are too risky. If something goes wrong with the patient, this hospital will be in trouble. Mr. Lu, please forgive me, I can't help you here."

Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "Mr. Jess, don't rush to refuse. Let's find a time to talk in person."

"Then let's meet at the cafe next to the city hall at noon today."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Chen went out. He drove to the coffee shop and booked a seat that was more suitable for discussing things. At 12:, Jess walked into the coffee shop from outside.

Seeing Jace coming in, Lu Chen quickly waved his hand to indicate his position.

After seeing this, Jess quickly walked over to the seat. Seeing Jess coming, Lu Chen quickly ordered a cup of coffee for Jess.

Lu Chen looked at Jess and said:

"Mr. Jess, I really need your help this time. My new medicine is a special medicine and it is not dangerous to humans."

Jess frowned and said, "Mr. Lu, you know that the most important thing for a hospital is its reputation. If a medical accident occurs, it will be a big blow to a hospital, so a hospital generally won't do things like clinical trials."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Jess, generally speaking, no. What are the special cases?"

Jace smiled and said, "Hospitals usually make their own medicines."

Damn it, you want penicillin, what are you dreaming about? Lu Chen cursed in his heart, isn't it just a clinical experiment? Lu Chen shook his head:

"Our company will not sell this drug. Mr. Jess, is there any other way?"

Jace shook his head and said:

"Then I have no choice."

Lu Chen thought that some pharmaceutical companies in the future would recruit a large number of volunteers for clinical trials. So he said to Jess, "What if the patients themselves are willing to use our medicine? We only need to use the hospital's equipment."

Jace thought for a moment and said, "There is no precedent for this. I don't know if it's possible."

Lu Chen immediately said, "Mr. Jess, how about this? I'll pay 10 yuan and rent some wards in your hospital for a month. What do you think?"

When Jace heard the price Lu Chen offered, he was a little tempted. Just renting the equipment and the wards would earn him 100,000 yuan a month. This was a huge income. He thought about it and said:

"Okay, I agree. Send your experimental personnel to St. Adair's Hospital in New York. I will ask the hospital to give you 10 wards and the corresponding equipment."

Seeing that Jess agreed, Lu Chen immediately wrote a check for 10,000 yuan. Then he stood up and handed it to Jess.

"Mr. Jess, this 10,000 yuan is a deposit. After the contract is signed, the rest will be paid to you immediately."

Jace took the check and shook hands with Lu Chen before leaving the cafe.

Seeing Jace accept the check, Lu Chen also left the cafe with a happy face.

After Lu Chen returned home, he called Fu Mingzhuo to tell him the news. He then asked Fu Mingzhuo to recruit volunteers in the newspaper. He then asked Fu Mingzhuo to find a few doctors to go to St. Yad's Hospital to sign a contract with Jess.

After giving the instructions, Lu Chen left home without taking a rest, drove to Fei Fuli's home with gifts.
