It would take at least two months to ship several ships of cotton yarn across the ocean from the United States.
Even if Jack Will was in the United States now, it would take almost a month for him to buy cotton yarn from the United States immediately and then rent a cargo ship to transport it to Shanghai.
The time cost, transportation cost, labor cost, and the fluctuation of the US dollar exchange rate must also be considered. In fact, it is not cost-effective.
Shen Yutang asked Jack Will to buy cotton yarn from the United States, not for the purpose of purchasing cotton yarn from the United States on a long-term basis, but just as a temporary expedient.
Moreover, as the price of cotton yarn in Shanghai continued to rise, the high-priced cotton yarn shipped from the United States actually had a price advantage.
The large amount of cotton yarn shipped from the United States was just the trump card in Shen Yutang's hand.
Her ultimate goal was actually to bankrupt those Japanese merchants in Shanghai who had hoarded cotton yarn.
This allowed her "Fuji Corporation" to monopolize the entire cotton yarn business in Shanghai.
Jack Will spent only 100,000 US dollars in the United States to buy a pharmaceutical factory called "Winslock" for Shen Yutang.
After obtaining the equity transfer agreement of the pharmaceutical factory, Jack Will began to rectify this pharmaceutical factory with chaotic management.
Although he himself did not understand the operation of a pharmaceutical factory, he knew that only professionals could do their job well.
In addition, he had a huge sum of US$400,000 in his hands. In order to complete Shen Yutang's instructions, he hired some professional managers at high salaries.
After a month of rectification by professional managers in the pharmaceutical industry, the management of the "Winslock" pharmaceutical factory has become much more standardized.
Situations like people dying from eating the wrong ingredients have been effectively and completely prevented!
Jack Will reported all the good news to Shen Yutang in Shanghai in real time.
He used a commercial telegram, signed it with the signature he had previously agreed with Shen Yutang, and sent it directly to the telegraph company in Shanghai.
The supervision of such commercial telegraphs also falls within the purview of the Special Section.
The telegraph company's telegraph chief was only checked by a few Japanese spies who took turns to check.
Shen Yutang's Inspection Department is the immediate superior of these Japanese spies.
It would not be dangerous for Shen Yutang to obtain the business telegram sent by Jack Will.
Knowing that Jack Will had bought an American pharmaceutical factory at a low price, Shen Yutang was also very happy.
This investment from the American pharmaceutical company is much more valuable than the Chinese agency rights of the European pharmaceutical company.
Let Jack Will continue to closely monitor the production of pharmaceutical factories in the United States, and have tens of thousands of sulfa drugs shipped to Shanghai on time every month.
In order to cope with the upcoming war in Europe, Shen Yutang also urged him in his reply to the telegraph company to continue purchasing pharmaceutical production lines and continue to expand the production scale of the "Winslock" Pharmaceutical Factory.
Jack Will's family now lives a prosperous life. Not only are they arranged by their boss Shen Yutang to live in a villa, they no longer have to worry about their daily food and clothing.
As for himself, now thanks to the huge financial support from his boss Shen Yutang, he has become one of the wealthy businessmen in the United States.
Having lived in poverty for most of his life, Jack Will cherishes everything his boss has given him.
So when he arrived at Jack Will in the United States, Shen Yutang asked him to continue expanding the production capacity of the pharmaceutical factory. He then looked for opportunities to acquire other pharmaceutical factories and also purchased new advanced pharmaceutical production lines.
As for the boss who suddenly sent a telegram asking him to buy two ships of cotton yarn from the United States.
Although Jack Will didn't understand the situation, he believed that his boss's words were the imperial decree.
