As a fallen master of the Republic of China, there is a Taoist priest named Ninth Uncle

“Does Mr. Cai know how soldiers on the battlefield generally die?”

Gu Zhou asked a question that made Cai Chun inexplicable, and he thought for a while: “On the battlefield, the direct death is a minority, the most deadly is still bacterial infection, and the majority die after being injured, and there is currently no immediate method and medicine to deal with wounds.” ”

“Mr. Cai is very knowledgeable!”

Gu Zhou originally thought that he still needed to explain it himself, but he didn’t expect Cai Chun to understand this aspect.

Cai Chun stroked his beard and said smugly: “Don’t hide from you, I also studied in the West when I was young, and I know a lot of things in the West.” ”

Gu Zhou shook penicillin: “This thing is called penicillin, the effect of sterilization and disinfection is very strong, with this thing, the mortality rate of battlefield soldiers can be reduced by at least more than fifty percent.” ”

“Impossible!”

Cai Chun’s conditioned opposition, what he learned and what he saw, told him that this miracle medicine did not exist in the world.

Gu Zhou smiled faintly: “Mr. Cai, don’t worry about denying, penicillin, in some cases, is a panacea, what syphilis, gonorrhea, bacteremia…”

Gu Zhou said more than a dozen diseases in a row, after the emergence of penicillin, the once incurable scarlet disease, purulent sore throat, diphtheria, syphilis, gonorrhea, all kinds of tuberculosis soldiers, sepsis, typhoid fever can all be data, a small wound can cause death The era has passed.

Gu Zhou said that penicillin is the universal miracle medicine of this era is not exaggerated, because people in this era have not used penicillin, there is no resistance, because penicillin is too widely used, many diseases can have obvious effects with a shot of penicillin.

Gu Zhou once played the game “Civilization 5”, in which one of the technologies in the technology tree is “penicillin”.

Compare what is the same level, pre-stage and post-level technology.

Class-leading technologies: plastics, electronics, radar and nuclear theory

Pre-important technologies: refrigeration technology, radio, internal combustion engine and flight

Post-important technologies: computers, nuclear fission, ecology and rockets

Technology, which one is not a big hit? Penicillin is so noodles.

Cai Chun smiled hehe, with a look of ‘you are teasing me’: “If I didn’t know that Mr. Gu is not a person who likes to joke, I would have thought that Mr. Gu and I were telling jokes.” ”

“It’s normal for Mr. Cai not to believe it.”

Cai Chun’s reaction was expected by Gu Zhou, and he was not annoyed: “Mr. Cai also knows that I am not a person who likes to joke, so why would I tell you a fantastical thing?” ”

Cai Chun frowned and did not speak.

“These penicillins, Mr. Cai can bring back for experiments, this is a detailed manual, with the ability of German commercial banks, it should not be difficult to test whether the effect of penicillin is true or false.”

Gu Zhou followed the good and clear persuasion:

“With Mr. Cai’s insight, you should understand how precious this medicine should be if what I said is true.”

He lowered his voice, like a demon tempting mankind into depravity.

“It will be ten times more expensive than the same weight of gold, more than a hundred times!”

Historically, in 1943, a ton of penicillin was worth $830 million, and 675 tons of gold could be bought at the same price, which means that a ton of penicillin is equal to more than 600 tons of gold, and a ton of penicillin can buy 5,000 main battle tanks or 4,000 B-17 bombers, which is equivalent to the armament of a military power.

So as long as you have 100 pounds of penicillin you have $42 million, an aircraft carrier in the United States at that time is worth $8 million, which is equivalent to driving back 5 aircraft carriers, and the rest of the money can be filled with fuel.

And Gu Zhou bought a barrel of penicillin, thirty-five kilograms, the price of a thousand.

Despite being a veterinary penicillin, the effect is much stronger than in 1943.

Cai Chun looked at Gu Zhou with a struggling expression, and reason told him that this miracle medicine did not exist in the world, but Gu Zhou told him that if his authenticity was verified, its benefits would be incredible.

“Mr. Cai, am I not clear enough?”

Gu Zhou said leisurely: “A certain sage in the West said that if capital has 20% profit, it becomes active; With a fifty percent profit, it takes risks; For the sake of one hundred percent profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a profit of three hundred percent, it dares to commit any crime, even risking hanging. ”

“If everything I say is true, no, I don’t need everything to be true, but only ten percent true, and the profit is much greater than three hundred percent. What’s more, the cost and risk of experimentation is low, so why not? ”

Cai Chun let out a long sigh and looked at Gu Zhou deeply: “Mr. Gu, I understand what you said, I am afraid that the profits are too big and too big for Desunmet Commercial Bank to afford.” ”

“German commercial companies are just middlemen, what are they afraid of?” Gu Zhou asked rhetorically.

“Mr. Gu, you are very bold.”

“Pass the prize.”

Gu Zhou knew that Cai Chun was persuaded by himself, and his words changed: “Mr. Cai, I want you to help me buy some weapons.” ”

Cai Chun was very cheerful: “This is easy to do, whether it is made in Hanyang in China, or in the United States, German, the sun never sets, Dongying weapons and equipment, I can help you buy it.” ”

“German armament.”

“How much?”

“Standard equipment for a battalion.”

“How much!”

Cai Chun was taken aback, and his eyes widened: “Are you going to fight?” ”

At this moment, Cai Chun was really frightened, his mind turned wildly, guessing Gu Zhou’s origin, suspecting that he was a revolutionary party.

Now that the domestic revolutionary party is making a big fuss, Cai Chun certainly knows how bold this group of revolutionary parties is.

Gu Zhou seemed to see through his thoughts, and said with a smile: “Mr. Cai, don’t worry, I’m not a revolutionary party, I just want to get some weapons and equipment to protect myself.” ”

Cai Chun complained in his heart, to protect himself to a battalion of standard equipment? Do you protect yourself, or do you hit others?

“In addition to weapons and equipment such as pistols, rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, and artillery, you also helped me hire several training consultants.”

Gu Zhou continued.

“Yes, but if you think clearly, the price of weapons and equipment for a battalion of five hundred people is not low for the training consultants of the German army.”

Cai Chun didn’t believe what Gu Zhou said to protect himself, but the German commercial house was only doing business, and they couldn’t control what customers took it, and the arms business of the great powers occupied a large proportion in the dialogue trade, and they could buy and sell arms and arms in a dignified manner, and the imperial court did not dare to care.
