In the Shen Yutang system mall, there are indeed various medicines that are only available in later generations.
However, these medicines require consuming merits, which are really expensive.
It is obvious that Shen Yutang's merit points are far from enough to use the merit mall to exchange medicines for the soldiers in his hometown.
In this era, among Western medicines for treating trauma and infections, only sulfonamide is the most effective Western medicine that can be mass-produced.
As for penicillin, which came out later,
It's probably still being researched in laboratories in Europe and America.
The anti-infection effect of penicillin should have been discovered by this time, but mass production and extraction of it was still a long process.
In her previous life, Chen Yutang was not a good student. She was just a poor student who only managed to get a bachelor's degree in arts and physical education.
It's okay to let her play the piano, dance, sing a song, and draw a sketch.
But the idea of hand-rubbing penicillin in bulk is something I'd rather not think about.
And just when Shen Yutang's "Nightingale" team was working hard to build material procurement and transportation channels in Shanghai.
Our party's northwestern Shanxi region, which had just experienced a brutal mopping-up operation by the Japanese army, was in urgent need of sulfa drugs and other medicines to save the lives of the wounded soldiers.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, one dose of sulfa medicine was equivalent to the life of a soldier of our party.
My hometown is in urgent need of a large amount of sulfanilamide. I hope to collect the sulfanilamide drugs as soon as possible and transport them to the northwest of Shanxi.
At the same time, it was sent from my hometown to the pharmaceutical teams in various cities.
As the radio operator of the "Nightingale" team, Yu Jingshu also received this order this time.
After Shen Yutang learned that his hometown was in urgent need of sulfa, he asked Zhang Jianglin to inquire about the source of sulfa in Shanghai.
As a Western medicine, sulfamethoxazole was still produced only by some pharmaceutical companies in Europe and America.
Only a small amount of sulfamethoxazole is sold on the black market in Shanghai, and the price of each stick of sulfamethoxazole is equivalent to that of a small yellow croaker.
Even if Chen Yutang was willing to accept such a high price, the sales volume on the Shanghai black market would hardly meet the demand of her hometown this time.
There was really no other way, so Shen Yutang hoped that Zhang Jianglin could find a way to directly purchase goods from pharmaceutical factories in Europe and America.
It is confirmed that Inspector Johnson in the French Concession has contacts with channels at the French pharmaceutical factory.
Zhang Jianglin followed Jiro Shimazaki to the French Concession.
They hoped to meet with the French inspector Johnson to discuss with him the large-scale purchase of sulfamethoxazole in Europe.
Johnson's position as inspector in the French Concession was actually bought with his own money.
These French people traveled across the ocean and came to Shanghai from France.
It's nothing more than wanting to make as much money as possible in this most prosperous city in the Far East.
Johnson was previously just a down-and-out middle-class person in France.
His family sold everything they had to find him a position as an inspector in the French Concession in Shanghai.
Johnson did not disappoint his family. After arriving in Shanghai, he immediately made a lot of money by networking with people.
With the money he made from his position, Johnson opened an authentic high-end steak restaurant in the French Concession.
The French specialty products here, such as red wine, beef, foie gras, and salad dressing, are all shipped from France to Shanghai for sale by him.
It was specifically sold to wealthy people in the French Concession in Shanghai who worshipped foreign things and pursued petty-bourgeois foreign fashions.
These ordinary French products can earn at least ten times more profit when sold in Shanghai.
