Chapter 1840: Selling Everything You Have to Do It

Hua Keyi spoke up, but Yang Xiaotao didn't take it to heart.

It’s normal that you can’t do it!
Now he just wanted to know if anyone could convert this molecular formula into a structural formula.

So he asked, "Do you know who has the best chemistry skills?"

"Or, is there such a capable person in your circle?"

Yang Xiaotao pointed to the structural formula on the paper.

"Unlock it!"

The two thought about it for a while and shook their heads.

At least in their pharmaceutical factory and in their social circles, they have never heard of such a person.

"But, Mr. Yang."

Ni Jinbao finally spoke up, "I think this kind of question can be asked at the university."

"The teachers and professors there should be able to figure it out."

This remark awakened Yang Xiaotao from his dream, and he immediately realized that he had come to the wrong place, coming to the chemical plant.

The most professional people with theoretical knowledge still have to go to school.

"How could I have forgotten this!"

Yang Xiaotao murmured. Xu Yuanshan asked the two to leave and then came over to ask, "What is this thing for?"

Yang Xiaotao came back to his senses, looked at the two and explained, "The molecular formula of a chemical synthetic product. If you can find its structural formula, you can get this product."

"And this item is a medicine!"

"medicine?"

Bai Jingshu covered his mouth and screamed.

Xu Yuanshan's breathing became rapid. He had heard of chemical synthetic drugs before.

But I have never thought about it, and I don’t even dare to have this idea.

In his impression, a chemical plant is about researching reagents, such as acids, alkalis, various salts, and so on.

Previously, helping steel mills produce tinplate was considered a special use.

But when it comes to producing medicines, he feels that this is a bit magical.

It’s not that no one is doing it, because chemical synthesis has indeed been achieved abroad.

But they never thought that this day would come for their chemical plant.

But he never doubted what Yang Xiaotao said.

At this moment, Yang Xiaotao was just like when he was in the steel mill before, facing the rolling mill and confidently saying "I can fix it", leaving no room for doubt!
"Yes, the last time I went to the northwest to perform a mission, a comrade was injured. During my treatment, I discovered that the anti-inflammatory drugs they used were not available in our country!"

"There just happens to be an instruction manual inside!"

"I was curious, so I took a glance and then wrote it down!"

Yang Xiaotao made up an excuse to cover it up, but the two believed it. Otherwise, who would use a difficult chemistry problem to embarrass others for no reason?
Bai Jingshu suddenly exclaimed, "Boss Yang, you mean, you mean, if this thing is made, we, our pharmaceutical factory can produce this kind of medicine?"

Xu Yuanshan also looked over. If that was the case, their chemical plant and pharmaceutical factory would be the biggest winners!

In the past, I was so envious when I saw steel mills and research institutes coming up with inventions from time to time, which were the first of their kind in the country!
Now, this good thing has finally happened to them.

While he was excited, Xu Yuanshan also understood that it would be extremely difficult to accomplish the task with the current technology and machines in the chemical plant.

However, as long as there is a goal, he believes that the chemical plant can overcome any difficulties!

"Yes, it should be no problem, but it requires a lot of research, involving various chemical reactions, and some reactions even require overcoming difficult problems..."

Yang Xiaotao did not explain it in detail, and even if he told Xu Yuanshan, he might not understand it.

They just need to know that there are benefits to making this thing.

To achieve this goal, they will unleash unparalleled motivation!

And this is the characteristic of this era.

"Okay, Mr. Yang, don't worry, isn't it just a chemical reaction?"

"If we can't do it, then the teachers and experts in the school can't do it either?"

"If it doesn't work, I'll look for someone all over the country!"

"In a word, we will do it even if it means selling everything we have!"

Xu Yuanshan spoke without fear and with great heroism.

"Correct!"

Bai Jingshu was also infected by Xu Yuanshan's words, and his eyes were shining.

If I can accomplish this, I can stand up straight at home!

As for the current situation, their pharmaceutical factory cannot just sit there and watch, otherwise all the credit will go to the chemical plant.

Thinking of this, Bai Jingshu sat aside and smiled softly, "Boss Yang, we also wanted to learn from the main factory and set up a research and development department."

"But later on, the product was too single and the investment was too large. As time went by, no one joined and it eventually became a truly idle department."

"Then let's do it now."

Yang Xiaotao said it with certainty, and added that the sooner the better for research and development work, the better.

“Not only do we need to run it, but we also need to attract talent, at least people who can solve this problem.”

"Besides, your two families can work together."

Xu Yuanshan smiled after hearing this. He had had this idea a long time ago!

However, he was not in a hurry to express his opinion. This still needed to be discussed with the leadership of the chemical plant. In addition, he also needed to fight for who would lead the research team.

"Also, we need talented people here. If you hear of anyone who has the ability, you must try to get him over. Don't be afraid of trouble."

“We are in need of such talents now.”

The two nodded, knowing that this was Yang Xiaotao's usual style!
"understand!"

"Also, the school you just mentioned is pretty good. Go to the school more often. They have a lot of people there."

Yang Xiaotao gave some more instructions, then sat in a chair, thinking about how to use the instructions for these medicines.

If he took out this information and handed it over to professionals, with the help of molecular formula, structural formula and molecular weight, it should be possible to save a lot of detours.

As for whether the ingredients in the instructions are wrong, it depends on the conscience of the manufacturer.

Yang Xiaotao thought to himself that when he had time, he would take out the instruction manuals of the same product from different manufacturers and compare them.

As for foreign instruments and equipment, we have to find a way. Now because of the epidemic, there has been communication in Haojing, and perhaps some pharmaceutical equipment can be introduced.

If it really doesn't work, exchange it for technology.

If this medicinal wine is handled well, it may have unexpected effects.

Last but not least, it is talent.

Nowadays, apart from attracting students studying abroad, we can only train them ourselves.

Of course, this cannot be accomplished in a day or two, even a year or two will be enough, but it is better to set up the framework first than to miss the opportunity when it comes.

Moreover, given the current situation, if he could provide a safe haven and an opportunity for research and experimentation, I believe many people would come to the machinery factory like Liu Xiangdong.

Therefore, we need to have a team right now, and it would be best if we could cooperate with university research institutes.

There are so many chemical formulas, it would be a waste of money if you could figure out even one.

Since the chemical plant could no longer provide any help, Yang Xiaotao and Bai Jingshu left the plant.

Along the way, Yang Xiaotao was still thinking about how to use the information in the instruction manual.

Obviously, the above information alone is not enough.

A chemical synthesis requires not only theoretical knowledge guidance, but also sufficient tools.

Just like the temperature requirements commonly found in chemical reactions, if the machine fails to meet the requirements, it will only backfire.

Therefore, he needs a strong R&D team that can turn what he wrote in the manual into reality.

And now this work can only be handed over to pharmaceutical factories and chemical plants!

Bai Jingshu followed Yang Xiaotao, his mood ups and downs, but he soon focused his energy on the audit of the pharmaceutical factory.

The two of them walked around casually in the pharmaceutical factory.

While walking, I often encountered internal auditors conducting audits in the workshop. The pharmaceutical factory staff accompanying them were either running in a hurry or had grim expressions, and their clothes were even sweating through.

Yang Xiaotao did not disturb the review. After taking a walk around, when it was almost time to get off work, he got into Xu Yuanshan's car and headed towards the courtyard.

Back in the courtyard, Yan Fugui approached Yang Xiaotao with a smile on his face, "Xiaotao, have you told them?"

Yang Xiaotao glanced at it and then nodded, "Don't worry, I've said everything I need to say. I won't make it difficult for Yan Jiecheng."

After saying that, he walked towards the middle courtyard.

Xu Yuanshan followed behind, and Yan Fugui smiled when he saw them. Then he returned home happily, closed the door with the third aunt, and celebrated with a smile.

"What did you promise him?"

Yang Xiaotao briefly explained the story, of course this was an updated version, which meant that he supported Yan Jiecheng in his pursuit of love.

Xu Yuanshan was too lazy to pay attention to such things. He just wanted to take his things and go find Zhan Lei as soon as possible to persuade him.

Yang Xiaotao returned home, took out a jar, and under the gaze of Xu Yuanshan, filled two empty wine bottles.

This is what Xu Yuanshan asked for on the way here, of course one of the bottles is for Zhao Chuanjun.

Although the two didn't say it, Yang Xiaotao understood.

It's all about the man's face.

However, Yang Xiaotao still reminded him that the side effects of this medicinal wine are not 100% effective.

Otherwise, Old Yu from the back yard wouldn't have been silent for so long.

Xu Yuanshan naturally understood the reason, but he was still very happy. He held the two bottles of wine in his hands tightly, for fear that they would fall to the ground and break.

Asking Xu Yuanshan to wait at home for a while, Yang Xiaotao ran to the backyard with the written recipe and the ancient recipe in the space. The old Taoist was preparing food at home. When he heard the whimpering of a puppy outside, he knew who was coming.

The old Taoist said without even looking up, "The noodles will be ready in a while."

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and took a look at the pot. "Oh, there are quite a lot this time. So many, did you know I was coming to eat?"

"How do you know you're coming? I'm sending this to Lao Yu."

"Lao Yu? Are you back?"

Yang Xiaotao took a few steps back to the door and looked at the house next door.

Before Yang Xiaotao could open his mouth to shout, the old Taoist stopped him and said, "Clear the sound and let him rest for a while."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Old Yu is injured."

"injured?"

"Yes, I just came back from the hospital this morning. I found out when I got home from get off work!"

"I'll go take a look."

Yang Xiaotao was about to go out, but the Taoist priest stopped him and said, "Bring the food back later."

"Okay. Oh, by the way, I need your help with something."

After a moment, Yang Xiaotao told the story of the pharmaceutical factory.

The old Taoist said indifferently, "When the ancient recipe was given to you, it is up to you to decide how to use it. You don't need to ask for my opinion."

"As for what you said about making money abroad, I agree with that."

"When we were fighting, a box of aspirin was worth a small piece of gold. All our money was taken away by the foreigners."

"This is a good opportunity to earn back some interest."

Since the Taoist priest said so, Yang Xiaotao naturally wanted to help him achieve his wish.

The two of them adjusted the earlier prescription, selecting a few herbs from the ancient recipe and adding them to it, and then the recipe was completed.

After leaving the old Taoist, Yang Xiaotao glanced at the little stones playing outside and quickly walked back to the central courtyard.

"Uncle Xu, this is the recipe for the medicinal wine. Give it to Director Bai tomorrow."

"Tell her to keep it a secret and not let anyone know."

Xu Yuanshan took the prescription and took a look at it. Many of the herbs on it were new to him.

However, this is not a problem for Bai Jingshu, who comes from a traditional Chinese medicine family.

"Don't worry, I understand."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and looked at the two bottles of wine in his arms. He estimated that the two people who had tried the properties of the medicinal wine would also become firm supporters.

Of course, this matter is the machinery factory's business after all, and he also needs to report it to his superiors, especially when it involves "wine" and a large-scale purchase, which requires approval from above.

Taking the medicinal wine and prescription sent by Yang Xiaotao, Xu Yuanshan did not stay long and drove away from the courtyard. He still had to have a good discussion with Zhan Lei today.
