Chapter 67: Resettlement of Veterans
Yunxi is from their military region, and is directly led by the military region in the hemostatic drug project. Although he may not have much experience, he can at least give her the greatest freedom.
And based on his understanding of Lin Yunxi, she would definitely hand over the prescription to the state.
Finally, after Shao Qingliang's constant persuasion, Zhou Guoan promised him that he could participate in the subsequent clinical trials of hemostatic drugs.
At this point, the old man was so happy that he didn't know what to do. After all, he personally participated in the clinical trial and witnessed the miraculous effect of the hemostatic drug with his own eyes. How could he not be excited.
"Yunxi, what do you think about the formula?" Zhou Guoan asked directly.
He is a soldier and has participated in several important wars that concerned the country. He knows better than anyone the importance of medicines on the battlefield.
Although he knew Lin Yunxi's character, he still felt a little nervous.
Lin Yunxi took a sip of hot tea, and under Zhou Guoan's expectant eyes, she opened her red lips slightly and said, "Uncle Zhou, I have decided to donate the formula of the hemostatic powder to the country."
"Good, good, good." Zhou Guoan clapped his hands and said several good words excitedly.
He said that he had never misjudged anyone, and that Xiaozheng and Yunxi were both great people.
A man who joined the army at the age of eighteen not only had outstanding military achievements and made many contributions, but also established many heroic feats.
A person who is selfless, dedicated, and patriotic, and is unambiguous on major issues.
Zhou Guoan calmed down his excited mood and continued to ask.
"Yunxi, we definitely won't take this prescription for free. If you have any requests, just let me know. I can help you report it to the higher-ups."
He believed that as long as the request was not illegal or excessive, the higher-ups would agree to it.
Hearing this, Lin Yunxi shook her head. To be honest, she handed over the prescription only to provide as much protection as possible to the soldiers fighting on the front lines, not for money or fame.
Besides, she still has space and a clear direction for the country in the next few decades, which are the greatest treasures for her.
In modern times, compared with developed countries, my country's new drug research and development capabilities are weaker, the level of innovative drugs is lower, and there is a big gap in drug research and development investment.
Even more than 95% of patented drugs and medical devices are monopolized by developed countries, and the price of imported drugs in my country is often as high as tens of thousands of yuan per bottle.
As a Chinese, Lin Yunxi naturally hopes that his country's medical level and comprehensive national strength can be greatly improved so that ordinary people can afford medicine.
Now she has the opportunity to open a factory, accumulate capital, build a team of talents, and establish a specialized laboratory.
"Uncle Zhou, I don't care about the rewards. I only have one request, which is to set up the pharmaceutical factory in Province Z."
After listening to Lin Yunxi's request, Zhou Guoan fell into deep thought.
After all, he was only a division commander of a military district under Province Z. The prescription he submitted would certainly go through a series of tests, discussions, site selection, etc. It was difficult for him to control these.
The hemostatic powder project is a hot commodity. Whoever takes it over will have the best material to enrich their resume, and high-ranking official positions and generous salaries are just around the corner.
To put it bluntly, there are many people who hold higher positions than him, and Zhou Guoan cannot guarantee that this request can be met.
Lin Yunxi saw his dilemma and struck while the iron was hot, telling him all the benefits of setting up a factory here.
To run a pharmaceutical factory successfully, in addition to formulas and production lines, a large amount of raw materials and workers are also needed.
The geographical conditions and climate of Z are very suitable. First of all, there is sufficient rain and heat, which can provide the basic material basis for the growth and development of Chinese medicinal materials.
Secondly, the terrain here is complex and suitable for the growth of plants at different altitudes.
Finally, Province Z is vast and sparsely populated. In addition to the farmland that has been cultivated, there are still large tracts of wasteland waiting to be developed.
If we set up a factory here, the government can help us cooperate with surrounding villages to reclaim wasteland and grow medicinal herbs.
In this way, the government achieves results, pharmaceutical factories have a steady supply of raw materials, and farmers have extra income. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.
In addition, after the pharmaceutical factory is built, it can provide a large number of jobs and promote social employment.
Recruiting workers is even simpler. Not to mention the several villages around the army that make a living by fishing, just take the military wives for example.
Because the military district’s family compound is far away from the city, there are no large factories around it.
The school established by the military region can provide more than a dozen positions, but they have already been filled up.
Therefore, most of the military wives living in the family compound do not have jobs, like Sister Hongmei.
She needs to rely on the man's salary to support a whole family and has to count her fingers every day to make ends meet.
Lin Yunxi wanted the pharmaceutical factory to be located near the military area for another purpose.
I just want to improve the living standards of military wives so that they don’t have to hide any delicious food at home.
Since everyone can eat meat every day, naturally no one will keep an eye on their family.
There are also children like Zhou Huihui, who are about 17 or 18 years old, and there are many of them in the military compound.
When visiting Uncle Zhou's family yesterday, Lin Yunxi heard that Huihui was preparing things for going to the countryside, which would be this month.
Sending educated youth to the countryside was a unique policy of that era, aimed at streamlining the urban population.
Young people with urban household registration who are 16 years old or above but have not yet found a job.
They all need to support remote areas in accordance with unified regulations.
Even though Zhou Huihui was the daughter of her teacher, she could not escape.
Not to mention that there are now a large number of people eyeing Commander Zhou's position, trying to find something to hold against him.
So there was no room for maneuver at all. Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou tried every possible way, but in the end they could only let their daughter stay for a few more months. When the time came, she still had to go back to the countryside.
Zhou Huihui is seventeen years old now, and will be twenty-three or twenty-four in another six years.
In this era, 24 years old is already an old girl, so Zhou Huihui is very likely to stay in the countryside and start a family.
It was because of the care and support that Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou and their family gave to Gu Zheng when he was in the army.
Lin Yunxi naturally treated the two of them as the elders of the family and thought that he could help them as much as possible.
These people are not enough. Of course, Lin Yunxi is most interested in those soldiers who have retired from the army.
They have received rigorous training, are well-disciplined, practical and capable, and are the best candidates for workers in her mind.
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Guoan's eyes immediately lit up.
"Yunxi, are you telling the truth?" he asked again and again.
Lin Yunxi nodded affirmatively: "Really!"
When Zhou Guoan heard that his daughter did not have to go to the countryside and could stay in the pharmaceutical factory to work, he was excited for a moment, but not so strongly.
But when he heard Yunxi say that the pharmaceutical factory could recruit veterans as workers, his heart started beating wildly.
