Old Master Bai was also deeply moved, as many of his old friends were suffering from illness.
He himself is only doing so because he has a wonderful granddaughter who takes good care of him; otherwise, he wouldn't be doing much better.
Finally, he solemnly agreed, "Alright! Go ahead and do it. Money is no problem. The Bai family will fully support and cooperate with you!"
"Thank you, Grandpa..."
Eight months later, with the old man's full support, the signboard of "Xiang's Pharmaceutical Factory" was hung at the entrance of a self-built factory in the suburbs of Kyoto.
Bai Yajing originally planned to rent, but the old man disagreed. He believed that being controlled by others would lead to endless troubles later on. So, with a wave of his hand, he remotely bought a piece of land with a few phone calls and told her to find someone to build it according to her ideas.
Bai Yajing ran around taking care of all the necessary documents and approvals.
Zhao Liang and his colleagues each set aside one person every day to help supervise the construction progress.
Although the pharmaceutical companies didn't receive any commission, they were all happy to help.
The factory that was eventually built covered about 30 acres, with the main production workshop occupying 8 acres. It had two red brick factory buildings with overhead cranes and steam pipes.
The warehouse covers an area of 4 acres and the stacks of medicinal herbs are more than 3 meters high, requiring manual forklift handling.
This forklift was brought over by the old man.
The office and living area covers 3 acres and has a three-story building, including a nursery and a medical room, where workers with children can leave their children here.
The power area covers 2 acres, and the boiler room has a 30-meter-high chimney that emits white smoke all day long.
The roadside greenery covers 13 acres, with coal ash main road, sycamore trees, and other trees and flowers. There is also a dedicated open space for drying medicinal herbs.
The plans here were developed by Bai Yajing and her grandmother after several revisions and discussions.
All the equipment was made by Xu Wei herself, and it was all of excellent quality. Bai Yajing was full of energy every day.
When the pharmaceutical company recruits, she personally conducts all the interviews. Only those who meet the standards of good character, cleanliness, and a strong sense of responsibility are hired.
There are also strict requirements; at the very least, one must have a local household registration.
Political background check and proof of no criminal record from the family are required, which also needs to be certified by the neighborhood committee or village.
Education - Ordinary worker: High school graduate with basic knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry.
Technical positions are open to graduates with a vocational school diploma or associate degree, with preference given to those majoring in pharmacy or mechanical engineering.
They also recruited veterans into the security department.
After a series of interviews, she recruited about fifty people, including men and women, young and old.
She still needs to hire more people; she estimates she'll need at least a hundred to meet production requirements.
During the day, whenever she was off work at the hospital, she would work at the factory with the technicians to study production processes. At night, she would go home and continue studying her grandmother's medical books, often staying up late into the night.
On the day the first batch of "Tongxin Pills" was produced, she was unusually nervous and her palms were sweating.
Once the experimental phase was over, she began preparations for putting it into use.
The Xiang family's prescription is indeed excellent; the researchers who used it all said it was good.
Moreover, thanks to the Xiang family's reputation and the foundation she had laid before, she was able to successfully deliver the pills to several hospitals and pharmacies in the city for trial use, and of course, the military hospital also received them.
The response was exceptionally positive. Orders poured in within a month.
"Grandma, we did it!" Bai Yajing excitedly rushed into the office with the newly received order. "The People's Hospital wants an additional 500 boxes! Our military hospital wants an additional 800! Hahaha!"
Grandma was inspecting a new batch of raw materials when she heard this. She looked up, a tired but satisfied smile on her face: "My little girl is so amazing!"
