Cross the Songhu battlefield and rise to become the most powerful warlord

75 Making Penicillin, Goodbye Alice

After leaving Special Envoy Chen's residence, Ye Qingshan was in a good mood.

On the one hand, his new position was actually promoted to brigade commander, even though it was the commander of a ragtag army.

However, Ye Qingshan was still satisfied.

At his age, there are probably not many people in the National Army who can become a colonel brigade commander based on his military achievements.

In addition, Ye Qingshan knew the situation of Zhou Pingkou, Lu Dahai and others.

The situation of the Third Battalion is good, with not many casualties, and it has safely retreated to Zhabei.

Ye Qingshan prepared to go to Zhabei to meet up with the Third Battalion after he completed his own layout.

At that time, Ye Qingshan will bring his old subordinates from the Third Battalion, as well as Zhou Xinghai and others, to serve in the temporary 36th Brigade.

Two days later, it was late October.

That afternoon, Ye Qingshan was in the factory checking the machinery and equipment when Uncle Lin ran in excitedly: "Second Young Master, Ah Ping is back."

After hearing this, Ye Qingshan immediately jumped off a device.

"Is Ping coming?

Have you brought back all the equipment?"

"They've all been delivered, and Ah Ping is guarding the truck at the back.

It will be here soon. ”

"Great."

Ye Qingshan was overjoyed.

“Quick, get everyone ready, wait for Ah Ping to deliver the final equipment, and install it immediately.

All raw materials are ready.

We will start work tonight.”

Ye Qingshan couldn't wait any longer, mainly because there wasn't much time left for him.

"Second Young Master, I'm back."

An hour later, Aping followed two trucks and arrived at the factory.

"A Ping, thank you for your hard work."

“Second Master, it’s not hard.

Everything is in the car.”

"Okay, move to the factory."

That night, the factory was brightly lit. Ye Qingshan personally led Uncle Lin, A Ping, and more than 30 workers to debug and operate the machines.

What Ye Qingshan had been trying to produce for so long was the famous penicillin.

This thing is as valuable as gold.

Especially in times of war, it is more expensive than gold.

At this time, Western scientists had already discovered penicillin, but unfortunately it was not taken seriously.

Until now, the research on penicillin still remains in the laboratory.

Still no one has solved the problem of large-scale industrial manufacturing and production of penicillin.

It was not until 1942 that American businessmen, sensing huge business opportunities in the war, invested heavily and developed a process for industrial-scale large-scale production of penicillin.

Ye Qingshan can easily find technical information in this area through his mobile phone.

Ye Qingshan naturally wanted to intercept this technology in advance. This was also one of the trump cards Ye Qingshan prepared for himself.

Now, the machinery and equipment have been purchased, and the raw materials have also been purchased.

The factory workshops and workers are all here.

Ye Qingshan stayed here overnight and began to debug the machine, trying to produce penicillin.

Even if we had the technical drawings and copied the machinery and equipment, it would be difficult to successfully produce penicillin.

Ye Qingshan still brought Uncle Lin and a group of workers to work all night long.

It was not until dawn that Ye Qingshan finally saw the first batch of penicillin produced.

Ye Qingshan's eyes were red, but he was very excited.

Ye Qingshan picked up a small bottle of penicillin and examined it using professional methods.

"Yes, that's right.

We succeeded. ”

Ye Qingshan shouted excitedly.

Ye Qingshan excitedly hugged Uncle Lin, A Ping and others.

"Second Young Master, can this potion really be worth more than gold?"

Uncle Lin stared at the small bottles of penicillin, still a little unconvinced.

"Haha, Uncle Lin.

The price I said is still conservative compared to gold.

Of equal weight, they are much more valuable than gold.

Because, at this time, we are the only company in the world that can produce this penicillin on a large scale."

"Tell the workers to take turns on duty. Production here will continue 24 hours a day."

Ye Qingshan gave the order.

Ye Qingshan wanted to stock up a batch of penicillin and take it with him when he left the concession and went to Zhabei.

“Second Young Master, we don’t have a lot of raw materials prepared this time.

I'm afraid we can't make too much of this...penicillin."

A Ping said from the side.

"It's okay, someone will take the initiative to prepare more raw materials for you soon.

You can first use the existing raw materials and produce as much as you can."

After Ye Qingshan finished speaking, he took away a small box of penicillin and left the factory.

"Black Bear, just drive with me.

Xiao Wusheng and others, stay here and don't let anyone get close to the factory.

It won’t work even if the King of Heaven comes.

Anyone who dares to enter will be shot dead."

Now, this factory is Ye Qingshan’s favorite, and it must be foolproof.

Then, according to the original plan, Ye Qingshan asked Black Bear to drive him to the mansion of American Minister Joseph.

Ye Qingshan wants to use the manufacturing technology of penicillin to find the American Minister Joseph to make a deal.

The technology for large-scale production of penicillin is what Ye Qingshan used to impress the Americans.

Ye Qingshan believed that the Americans knew much more about how much profit this thing could bring than he did.

Therefore, Ye Qingshan is very confident about this deal.

Anyway, this is the technology that the Americans were going to develop in two years.

Now it was just intercepted by Ye Qingshan in advance and then sold to the Americans at a high price.

Not only can Ye Qingshan make a fortune, but the American minister can also provide assistance to Ye Qingshan for his subsequent plans.

"Sorry, you don't have a reservation, so you can't come in?"

Ye Qingshan's car was stopped in front of the American ambassador's door.

Ye Qingshan couldn't do anything about this.

Even with his current status, he was not qualified to contact someone at the level of the American minister.

Ye Qingshan came to meet the American minister this time without telling Special Envoy Chen and Ning Yongchen.

He could only come here in person and find a way to meet the American minister.

As expected, he was stopped at the gate.

For a moment, Ye Qingshan didn't know who to find to introduce him to the American minister.

"Damn it, Captain, if we can't get in, we'll just force our way in."

Black Bear said irritably.

"No."

Ye Qingshan stopped him.

"Hello, Colonel Ye,

I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Just when Ye Qingshan was stopped at the door of the American mansion and was worried.

A blonde woman wearing a floral dress happened to pass by. When she saw Ye Qingshan, she greeted him with a smile.

Ye Qingshan recognized her immediately. This was the American female reporter who had asked him questions at the press conference.

"Reporter Alice, why are you here?"

Ye Qingshan tried his best to recall the name of this American girl.

“Oh, I come here often.”

The other person speaks fluent Chinese, but his accent is a bit strange.

"You want to go in?"

"Yes, I want to meet Mr. Joseph, the American Minister, to discuss something."

"Unfortunately, the Minister is not at the residence at the moment."

"Really."

Ye Qingshan was a little disappointed.

“However, there is a ball tonight on Broadway, and the Minister will be attending it.

It just so happens that I want to go too, but I’m short of a dance partner.

If you have time, Colonel Ye, would you mind going with me? "
