Chapter 258 Huge Investment
Chu Lingyun had captured so many Japanese spies, and the Japanese hated him deeply. If they found out where his parents were, it would definitely provoke their revenge.

Fortunately, the telegram was not sent by his parents. The Japanese are now watching him. The more times his parents contact him, the higher the risk of exposure.

"Sulfa, Smith?"

After reading the contents of the telegram, Chu Lingyun fell into deep thought. Seeing that the telegram was from the United States, Chu Lingyun thought it was Smith.

He didn't know other Americans, and he wouldn't send him telegrams for no reason.

The content of the telegram was very short, telling him that the drug sulfa was in short supply, and Smith hoped to borrow a sum of money from him, and he would pay high interest after making money.

No matter what kind of medicine, the domestic profit is very high, especially the medicine that can treat trauma, it can definitely make money.

Su Lingyun is a bit unfamiliar with Sulfonamides, he was not a doctor in his previous life, and his knowledge of medicines is limited to those commonly used by ordinary people, such as Ganmaoling, anti-inflammatory drugs and so on.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, as long as someone understands.

After tidying up, Chu Lingyun called Zhao Dong, took a few people and went straight to the hospital.

Jinling Hospital is a well-known public hospital in Nanjing. Chu Lingyun came here to inquire. On the wall of the hospital, he saw the introduction of famous doctors in the hospital.

"Go to Dr. Liang's number."

Chu Lingyun saw Dr. Liang, Dr. Liang is the surgeon here, and Chu Lingyun wanted to ask about Sulfonamide, so it was appropriate to call him.

The registration fee is not high. Although the hospitals of this era do not have as many high-tech equipment as later generations, the overall structure is very similar to that of later generations.

After a while, Chu Lingyun brought the two of them into the consultation room and saw Dr. Liang.

Dr. Liang was in his fifties, his hair was a little white, he looked very kind, and he was wearing glasses. When Chu Lingyun entered, he was looking at the list with his head down, and he raised his head after Chu Lingyun sat down.

"What's wrong with you?" Doctor Liang asked with a smile.

"Doctor Liang, I don't see a doctor, but I want to ask you about a medicine called sulfonamide. I don't know if you know it."

Chu Lingyun smiled slightly, this is also the Red Party, his servant is, someone has come to him and Lao Wu, the possibility that he is the Red Party is extremely high.

Sitting and talking with his comrades face to face, without any pretense, Chu Lingyun's heart was a little agitated.

"Sulfa, do you have this medicine?"

Dr. Liang's heart skipped a beat. He is a doctor, so he naturally knows the value of sulfonamide.

As the only anti-inflammatory drug in this era, it is no exaggeration to say that sulfa is a life-saving drug.

Before there was no sulfonamide, the only way to reduce inflammation was alcohol and iodine for external use. Once inflammation occurred, you had to carry it yourself.

If the physique is good, minor injuries are fine, but if serious injuries affect the physique, many people will not be able to survive and eventually die.

The demand for sulfonamide in my hometown is very high, but this drug is difficult to buy. Dr. Liang only got two boxes with the help of his work before, and sent them all back to his hometown.

"Not now, but there will be in the future, I don't know much about this medicine, can you introduce it to me?"

Chu Lingyun nodded, Dr. Liang did not doubt his purpose, and slowly explained the effect of sulfonamide.

Someone explained that Chu Lingyun immediately understood the role of sulfonamide.

The efficacy of sulfonamide and penicillin is similar, and penicillin is also called penicillin. In the future World War II, the price of penicillin was comparable to gold, or even higher than gold.

Sulfa is not as effective as penicillin, but in the absence of other anti-inflammatory drugs, sulfa is precious.

Chu Lingyun was well aware of the role and value of this drug during wartime. In the absence of penicillin, sulfa was penicillin during wartime, and it was no less expensive than gold.

"I see, thank you Dr. Liang.

Seeing Chu Lingyun get up, Dr. Liang hurriedly asked, "Sir, what is your surname, where do you work, can you leave your contact information, and you can inform me when you have sulfa in the future, our hospital also needs this medicine."

The young man in front of him looked extraordinary, and he was surrounded by obvious bodyguards. I'm afraid he wasn't lying, and it was really possible that he got this medicine.

If he could obtain a stable source of sulfonamide, even if it was more expensive, he would try his best to buy a batch.

The reason is simple, this drug can save lives at critical moments.

"My surname is Chu, and I work for the Military Intelligence Department. If you need it, I will contact you in the future."

Chu Lingyun took a deep look at him, then turned and left.

In the Military Intelligence Department, Dr. Liang's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect this young man to be a spy.

Dr. Liang is Secretary Liang. They don't have much contact with the Military Intelligence Department. Currently, the Military Intelligence Department is mainly for the outside world, unlike the Party Affairs Investigation Department, which is their old rival.

But after all, it was a secret service agency, and Secretary Liang regretted it a little. Why did he ask these words? It would be troublesome if he was caught by the secret service agency.

He has a special status. Once he is suspected of being in danger, he has to evacuate even if there is no evidence. He can't have an accident, otherwise it will have too much impact on the Nanjing underground organization.

Back at the Military Intelligence Department, Chu Lingyun immediately picked up the telegram Smith had given him.

Smith wanted to borrow ten thousand dollars, which was indeed a lot.

He does have foresight. The price of sulfonamide will increase several times after it is shipped to China. When the all-out war breaks out next year, the price of sulfonamide will skyrocket.

This business can be done.

However, Chu Lingyun did not intend to only lend money to Smith. He wanted to directly participate in this business, and he had to take the majority of it. But Smith was also very important. Only through Smith could he get the source of goods and safely transport them to China.

It is not easy for Chinese to do business directly in the United States, and it is easy to be robbed of goods. Until now, the United States still has the notorious Chinese Exclusion Act.

"Call your captain."

Chu Lingyun called a member of the small team and asked him to call Chu Yuan.

What Chu Lingyun wants to do is not a small business, and he has no time, and it is impossible to go to the United States on purpose, so he must find someone who is absolutely trustworthy and reliable to help him.

Among his confidants, Chu Yuan was the most loyal to him and listened to him the most.

Chu Yuan was brought out by him, and he followed him when he was in the army, unlike Ni Qian and Shen Hanwen, who were later accepted by Chu Lingyun as his confidants.

Another point is that Chu Yuan is very simple, strictly obeys his orders, and doesn't value money that much, so it's more reassuring to entrust this matter to him for Chu Lingyun.

"Team leader, look for me."

Chu Yuan soon came to Chu Lingyun's office. He was at the monitoring point just now, monitoring Zheng Guowei. Zheng Guowei, the brother of Zheng's family, was the key. Watching him might lead to the spy.

"There is a very important matter. I need someone worthy of entrustment to help me. Chu Yuan, would you like to help me with this matter?"

Looking at him, Chu Lingyun asked slowly, Chu Yuan immediately stood up straight, and replied loudly: "Team leader, you can go through fire and water, and you will do whatever you want."

"I don't need to jump through hoops and waters. I found a profitable business and I need someone to help me travel to the United States. You can help me."

Chu Lingyun shook his head lightly, and Chu Principle's eyes widened: "Ah, to America?"

He thought it was an important task, but he didn't expect it to be a business, and he had to travel as far as the United States.

"That's right, go to the United States, I will give you an assistant, and then you will go together."

Chu Lingyun nodded. This time it was for business and personal use, but sulfa is very important. It can not only make money, but also save people, especially after the war, it can save many people.

"Team leader, can someone else do it? You know, I'm marking people here."

Chu Yuan had a bitter face, it wasn't that he didn't want to help Chu Lingyun, but it took a long time to go back and forth to such a faraway place in the United States, and the case was delayed.

"If someone else can, I won't look for you. The case on your side can be handed over to Zhang Acheng. When you come back this time, you won't need to go again in the future."

Chu Lingyun shook his head. The first trip to the United States is very important, and Smith can be responsible for it later, but this time he must be someone.

"Okay, then I'll go."

Chu Yuan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded heavily. The team leader asked him to handle his private affairs, which was obviously against the rules, but everything he got was given by the team leader. Without the team leader, there would be no him.

Now he is not the stunned young man at the beginning, and he understands that this kind of thing is very common.

"You go back and prepare, leave for Shanghai tomorrow, and then buy a boat ticket to the United States."

Chu Lingyun was relieved, it would be best if Chu Yuan was willing to go, and if it was handed over to Nixie, Niqiu would definitely be happy, but the task on Nixie's side is also very important.

"Yes."

It's good to go early, go early and return early, this time he is not going alone, the team leader will arrange other people, he is only responsible for helping the team leader run this trip.

"Wang Sheng, bring your uncle to visit me."

After Chu Yuan left, Chu Lingyun immediately called Wang Sheng. Chu Yuan was too straightforward and didn't understand business matters, so Chu Lingyun was relieved to give the money to him, but business matters still needed to be handled by more professional people.

Now he doesn't have so many available people on hand, so he can only let Liu Chengzhu make this trip.

As for the rickshaw company, it can be handed over to other people for the time being. If Liu Chengzhu helps him with the sulfa business, the benefits in the future will definitely be more than that of the rickshaw company.

Wang Sheng came very quickly, and took Liu Chengzhu to the office after a while.

Liu Chengzhu kept his head down. Every time he came to the Military Intelligence Department, he felt uncomfortable. This is a department with great power. In the eyes of the common people, the police, who are very powerful, dare not breathe in front of these people.

"Liu Chengzhu, I have a business here and need someone to help me, would you like it?"

Chu Lingyun cut to the chase and asked directly.

"Mr. Chu, from what you said, it's my luck that you like me, just give me orders."

Liu Chengzhu hurriedly responded, he dared not listen to what Chief Chu said, let alone business, if he was really asked to do something illegal, he had to do it.

"Very well, I have someone I know in the United States. There is a very good business over there. I need you to help me negotiate and bring the goods back."

Chu Lingyun explained much more to Liu Chengzhu than Chu Yuan did. Chu Yuan was only responsible for sending money and depositing goods, while Liu Chengzhu was responsible for everything in the business.

Including negotiations with Smith.

Smith is a shrewd businessman, this time Chu Lingyun wants to do the business by himself, Smith can only be his partner, not the leader.

In terms of shares, Chu Lingyun planned to give Smith a [-]% dividend. If it wasn't for the need for Smith and the telegram he sent to him, he would not have given him [-]% of the shares.

[-]% is not much. In order to motivate Smith, he will be given a dividend growth incentive.

If the business reaches a certain level and the profit is stable, then he can be given a maximum of [-]% of the dividend, but it is only [-]% in the early stage. If there is too much in the early stage, it will not be easy to increase later.

Liu Chengzhu must grasp this point. Smith is very tactful, and he must not be led by the nose. Liu Chengzhu has the right to find another agent when necessary.

For such a business, Chu Lingyun did not have to rely on Smith.

It’s really impossible to do it alone, but the risk is higher, but as long as you can make money, I believe there are a lot of Americans who are willing to rely on it.

"Don't worry, I'll help you get it done."

After Liu Chengzhu heard this, he immediately confirmed that traveling to the United States was nothing to him, and he was even a little excited. This was his first trip to the United States.

"My people will go with me to protect your safety. In addition, you should find an interpreter immediately. Don't go to Jinling University, look for it elsewhere."

Chu Lingyun instructed that if he hadn't known about Sima Lin's situation, he might have asked for his interpreter.

It would be bad if one's own business was infiltrated by the Japanese.

"Understood, I'll go right away."

Liu Chengzhu knew that the time was urgent, and it was okay to go to the United States. There are many English-speaking people in Nanjing, so it is really impossible to go to Shanghai to find another urgently.

The rickshaw company can be handed over to his deputy first. This company belongs to Chu Lingyun. He can help Chu Lingyun with more important things, and his future achievements will definitely be better than being a manager.

Liu Chengzhu is not stupid, he knows his position very well.

After returning home from get off work at night, Chu Lingyun dug out his belongings in the secret compartment.

For this trip to the United States, he planned to use a lot of money. Smith only borrowed 15 US dollars, but he had to prepare [-] US dollars.

This was most of his possessions, and it was a bit risky to spend so much money for the first time, but he couldn't help it.

The war will start next year, and it will take several months to go back and forth to the United States. In addition, in the United States, we need to establish relationships, purchase supplies, etc., and it will take about half a year to go back and forth.

There is not so much time for Chu Lingyun to prepare, so he can only buy more goods at a time, and save as much as possible before the war starts.

After returning home from get off work, Secretary Liang washed his face, and then sat in the study. There was a book in front of him, but unfortunately he didn't read a single word.

He was still thinking about the young man who went to the hospital during the day. As a doctor, he knew better about the importance of sulfa.

Young people have a source of sulfa, which is a drug they are in urgent need of. If they can establish a stable supply channel with him, it will be of great help to them in the future.

But the background of the young man's military intelligence department made him hesitate again.

The last thing they wanted was to deal with the secret service, which would increase the risk of exposure, but sulfa was so important that he didn't know how to choose.

"Go and send a meeting signal to Director Yang."

After a while, Secretary Liang called the guard Feng Ruoxi, who was the Red Party in his house pretending to be a servant, and asked him to send a signal to meet him.

These two days are not the days when Director Yang comes to report on his work. If he wants to see Director Yang, he must notify him in advance.

In the end, Secretary Liang decided to take the risk. If it was feasible, he would be able to buy a steady stream of sulfonamides in the future. Unlike now, even if he is a famous doctor, it is very difficult to get sulfonamides.
