Chapter 391 New Business Opportunities and Brother-in-law's Fate

Guanganmen.

In the Wang family's living room.

When Liang Mancang carefully took the gift out of the bag, Wang Mengde's eyes were immediately attracted.

These are several pieces of animal fur with amber tones, emitting an intoxicating golden color.

Although it is indoors, it seems as if the sunlight is frozen on these furs, emitting a warm and charming luster.

Wang Mengde recognized it at a glance; it was the fur of a golden sable.

The golden sable is also a variant of the sable. Its fur is the most noble and most sought after in the sable family.

This unique golden hue is extremely rare in nature, making golden mink fur a coveted treasure for fur lovers.

Not only is its color unique, its hair is also light, long and narrow, and each strand of hair is very soft and smooth, as delicate as silk.

Usually, the fur of a golden mink is evenly mixed with a small amount of silvery-white needle hairs, which makes it show unique luster changes under different light, further highlighting its nobility and luxury.

Most importantly, golden minks are extremely rare and are only found in the country of polar bears.

Previously an exclusive item that belonged only to the Tsar.

Now, even if there are exports, the quantity is restricted.

In Western countries, countless noble ladies are fascinated by it, and everyone is proud to own this fur.

"Brother Liang, where did you get these golden mink furs?"

After a while, Wang Mengde reluctantly withdrew his gaze and asked with concern.

This thing is not available in the country because it is not produced and the country will not spend precious foreign exchange to import such a luxury item.

Therefore, he even felt a little nervous, fearing that the big brother in front of him would make a mistake.

"Meng De, this is a long story."

Liang Mancang smiled complacently, then solved the mystery:
"I'm reclaiming wasteland in the northeast, which is not far from the Far East of the polar bear country.

Although the relations between the two countries have been tense in recent years, privately, the reclamation groups of both sides often interact and exchange some supplies with each other.

When I went back to Northeast China last fall, didn't you give me several hundred bottles of 'Palace Emperor Pills' and a lot of antifreeze ointment?

At that time, we were exchanging supplies with those people in the north, and I took a small amount to try it out.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, some leaders of their reclamation group sent someone to tell me that they wanted to exchange the rare materials for the 'Palace Emperor Pills' and antifreeze cream in my hands."

"Originally, I didn't want to agree. The supplies you gave me are limited, especially the antifreeze cream. Even if the reclamation team can't use it all, I need to keep it just in case.

Besides, the heavy snow blocked the road for several months. If something happened, there would be no place to replenish supplies."

“Who would have thought that they would actually exchange it for the fur of a golden mink? It really makes me envious.

Finally, I gritted my teeth and decided to exchange all the 'Palace Emperor Pills' you gave me, leaving not a single one behind. As for the antifreeze cream, I only squeezed out a small portion for them."

“Unfortunately, I couldn’t give much away, and in the end they only gave me five golden sable pelts.

If the weather is good, I will send you a message and ask you to provide me with more antifreeze cream, so that I can take down the few remaining ones they have."

As he spoke, a look of regret appeared on his face.

I missed it last time, and I don’t know if I will have the chance to get the golden sable fur in the future.

This is a rare opportunity. After all, even in their hands, they don't often have such good things.

Wang Mengde did not feel any regret about this.

Only a few hundred bottles of "Palace Emperor Pills" and a small amount of antifreeze cream were used to exchange for five golden mink furs. This was a big profit.

At the same time, he felt relieved and was glad that Liang Mancang did not make any mistake.

As for privately exchanging supplies with the reclamation group from the polar bear country, it is totally not worth mentioning.

“Brother Liang, you have been in the Northeast for many years, and you are relatively close to the Far East of the country of the polar bear, so you should be very familiar with the situation there.

As far as I know, their country imports a large amount of 'Palace Emperor Pills' from our country every year. How come the leaders of the reclamation group are still short of this?"

Wang Mengde asked, puzzled.

When the "Palace Emperor Maru" was first released, Chekovsky, who was a polar bear diplomat at the time, was one of the first people to experience it.

Then he saw how effective this medicine was and decisively bought a batch and brought it back to China, giving it as gifts to his superiors or colleagues.

Before long, a "medication trend" emerged in their country.

Due to its powerful efficacy, it soon attracted the attention of the upper class. Then, Chekovsky, as a representative, signed a contract with China to pay off debts with drugs.

This contract was signed for a period of twenty years, and all the upper-class people in the country of Polar Bear praised Chekovsky's outstanding abilities in unison.

Three consecutive promotions is the greatest reward for him.

Because of the constraints of this contract, even though the relationship between the two countries has continued to deteriorate in recent years, it has not affected the continuous flow of this medicine into the north, and the quantity increases significantly every year.

Based on that number, ordinary people may lack the 'Palace Emperor Pill', but the leaders of the reclamation group also have levels.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any shortage.

"Well, I have asked about this matter and know some secrets.

The "Palace Emperor Pills" were exported to the polar bear country, and because the medicine was used to pay off debts, it was considered a fiscal expenditure to purchase it.

Then they are distributed from top to bottom, one level at a time, and the amount each person gets is determined based on their level.”

Liang Mancang lowered his voice and said mysteriously:
“But because it doesn’t cost money to buy, some people see business opportunities.

During the distribution process, a portion of it is intercepted and then shipped to European countries to be sold in exchange for money.

Since this is a no-cost business, all the money except the shipping cost is profit, which leads to the formation of a huge interest group in a very short period of time.

It can be said that there are countless people sucking blood from this profit chain.”

"As more and more people suck blood, the demand for money will become greater and greater, and as a result, the number of 'Palace Emperor Pills' issued will decrease every year.

This medicine is a high-frequency consumable. It's okay for the top management who can guarantee the quantity, but it's different for some people below them, as it's simply not enough.

It is said that in some black markets in polar bear countries, the price of this drug remains high all year round, and there is still no demand for it. "

As Liang Mancang told the story, Wang Mengde suddenly understood what was going on.

He thought about it and found a new business opportunity.

This business opportunity still requires the cooperation of Liang Mancang, so he smiled and said:

"Brother Liang, if you have a large amount of 'Palace Emperor Pills' and antifreeze cream, can you exchange them with the reclamation group of the polar bear country in the northeast?"

Wang Mengde had the memories of his previous life and knew deeply that although the polar bears of this period looked very prosperous from the outside, they had already begun to decay gradually from the inside.

Moreover, the Far East is a remote and remote region with abundant resources of all kinds.

If there were really a few channels to exchange these materials for the "Palace Emperor Pills" back to China, it would be of great benefit to China. The current Northeast region is different from what it will be a few decades later. It is currently the most important industrial base in China.

Once a large amount of resources are transported from the Far East, it will be like having an additional major artery for those huge heavy industrial clusters.

I believe that after a few years of development, the energy that can be unleashed will be beyond imagination.

"Meng De, are there really a large number of 'Palace Emperor Pills' available for exchange?"

Liang Mancang said in surprise.

This drug is hard currency, especially in the polar bear country, where it is even stronger and more valuable than the ruble and is comparable to the US dollar.

Before, when he first went to the Northeast, he was also very envious of the resources and industrial products in the Polar Bear Far East.

But China cannot offer any goods other than agricultural products for exchange.

Agricultural products are in short supply in the country, and we will never export them unless we have to.

But now it’s different. If there are a large number of ‘Palace Emperor Pills’, he has 100% confidence that he can exchange them for a large amount of supplies.

But he still had some doubts in his heart. According to his level, he had learned in the past two years that this medicine has always been China's flagship product for export and foreign exchange earnings.

Even though a small amount of it is gradually being sold domestically, there won't be much left.

"Brother Liang, don't worry about this. I will take care of the 'Palace Emperor Pills'. As long as you ask, I can provide you with a quantity worth 10 million US dollars in a month.

And every month, the quantity will only increase, not decrease. Will these be enough?"

Wang Mengde said confidently.

He is not bragging.

Thanks to the continuous growth in the export of medicines in recent years, many regions producing Chinese medicinal materials have developed a large number of "business farmers".

This has also significantly increased the output of Chinese medicinal materials.

In addition, Wang Mengde had inadvertently promoted the formation of a "trust" in the traditional Chinese medicine industry, and a large number of pharmaceutical factories could allocate production capacity at will.

This allows the production of a drug to be increased in a short period of time.

"It's more than enough. We may not need so much at the beginning. Both sides will be more cautious when exchanging materials in advance.

When it’s ripe, I think we’ll be able to use this much.”

Liang Mancang was overjoyed.

He had been reclaiming wasteland in the Northeast for several years. Recently, he heard from his old leader that his superiors were planning to transfer him to other areas to take on important tasks in two years.

If this is done before leaving, trading channels with the Polar Bear's Far East region can be opened up, bringing a large amount of resources and industrial products to China.

In this way, not only will the country benefit, but he himself can also get a better position.

"Brother Liang, I will report this to my superiors after I get to work tomorrow. You should also report this to your superiors and make this happen as soon as possible.

It will snow in the Northeast in a few months. Once it snows heavily, it will be very expensive to transport supplies there. We need to hurry up.”

Wang Mengde said in a deep voice.

“No problem, I’ll be back in about half a month.

When I return, prepare some 'Palace Emperor Pills' for me, and I will see if I can exchange them for the remaining golden sable furs."

Liang Mancang rubbed his hands eagerly.

He was so impatient that he wanted to fly back and do a great job right away.

As long as we transport the 'Palace Emperor Pill' over and place it on the other side of the border, those big-nosed people on the other side will definitely jump up in shock.

"Hahaha, Brother Liang, in half a month, when you go back, I can't say how many there will be, but there will still be hundreds of thousands of bottles."

Wang Mengde laughed.

He was also very happy.

A new business opportunity has been found today. As long as we grasp it firmly, the industrial clusters in the Northeast region will have a constant supply of blood and power in the future.

Next to them, although Dai Botao didn't say anything, he was also happy for his two good friends.

They talked for a while, mainly Liang Mancang telling some interesting things that happened when he was reclaiming wasteland in Northeast China.

“To be honest, the resources in the Northeast are so abundant. If it weren’t for the harsh natural environment, it would definitely be a good place to go.

There are just too few people. In the past few years, some progressive young people have formed youth teams and rushed to the Northeast with great enthusiasm to join the reclamation group.

But in the past two years, fewer and fewer people are willing to go, and the development of the reclamation group has entered a bottleneck period.

If a large number of educated young people can join us, and if we can exchange materials with the north, I am confident that within two years, we can double the size of the reclamation group."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Now everyone knows that it's too cold in the Northeast."

Dai Botao shook his head.

After all, the passionate young people who voluntarily join farms and reclamation groups are still a minority. A large number of young people would rather spend their days in the capital, beating up women, fighting, and doing nothing, than leaving the capital.

Only Wang Mengde knew that by the end of this year, the country would call on a large number of young people to go to the countryside and the mountains.

By then, the number of people in the reclamation team will definitely increase dramatically.

However, under the current circumstances, Wang Mengde would naturally not reveal the "secret".

noon.

Ran Xiaomei prepared eight dishes to entertain Liang Mancang and Dai Botao, six of which were meat dishes.

Wang Mengde took out two bottles of Fenjiu that had been stored in the cupboard for several years.

Seeing the sumptuous meal on the table, the two were filled with emotion.

The two of them were both in high positions, and they didn't usually get to eat such good food. During the Chinese New Year or other festivals, or when the company entertained them, they might have a few meals similar to this.

Including Wang Hao, the four of them gathered around the table, eating and chatting.

In the bedroom, Ran Xiaomei and He Shengnan led their four children and sat around a simple table to eat lunch.

Their meal was the same as the one on the living room table, there was no difference.

The two bottles of wine were soon finished, and Wang Mengde took out two bottles of Wheel Moutai that he had collected for about ten years.

When Dai Botao saw the two bottles of wine, his eyes lit up. He was a fan of Moutai.

This meal lasted nearly two hours.

In the end, except for Wang Mengde, the other three were a little drunk.

Dai Botao held an enamel pot in his hand, took a sip of tea, and then said:
"Meng De, there's something I forgot to tell you. I want your brother-in-law He Shengwu to stop driving. There's an opportunity next month for him to be directly employed in a certain department. What do you think?"
