"Sister Chao Qiong, do you know which pharmaceutical factory Zhou Pengfei owns?"

"Brother Pharmaceuticals, which makes wind-repellent oil."

"Wind-repelling oil? I remember the name of the owner of Axe Brand Wind-repelling Oil was Liang."

"It's not an axe sign, it's a knife sign."

"Oh, I have some impression." Xian Yaowen thought thoughtfully.

In his previous life, when he was a child, one summer, he went to stay with his old man at the ancestral home in Wenchangwei. After catching fireflies at night, the old man would take him to sit on a tall straw stack and tell him stories about the past and the countryside.

Once, the old man talked about three commonly used medicines in rural southern China in summer: cooling oil, wind oil essence, and magic pills, and he also talked about the past and present of these three medicines.

No matter what brand of cooling oil, their ancestor is Tiger Balm.

There is controversy over the ancestor of Fengyoujing. It may be Axe Brand Wind-Repelling Oil or Eagle Brand Fengyoujing. If we trace it back further, it can be traced back to a German prescription, which appeared around the early 1920s. It is unknown who developed it.

This prescription is like the "treasure map" in some stories, which was spread everywhere by German-Jewish street urchins who went to the Far East to seek gold. The root is here, so the brand stories of some brands of wind-repellent oil and wind-elixir have a German male protagonist.

Is there any use for Fengyoujing?
The answer is yes. Axe brand sells well and it exists wherever there are Chinese people in Asia, which proves that the market prospects of Fengyoujing are broad.

If the formula is not patented, then you can register it and trace it back to the source. The information can be forged all the way to World War I, when a rear pig (messenger) Adolf Hitler fainted from heatstroke while delivering a letter. A Jewish woman named Scarlett Taylor happened to meet him and applied a little magical oil on Hitler's temple. Within five minutes, Hitler was fully revived...

The brand story can be written slowly later, but the formula needs to be registered as soon as possible. First, occupy the legal high ground, and then think about occupying the moral high ground. No matter what the logo is, morally you are labeled a thief who stole the Xian family's prescription. It is a bit unreasonable not to say that it is Xian Yaowen's benevolence and righteousness, but to turn the tables and say that he is a thief.

It is known that there is a market, patents can be registered, and the moral high ground can be taken at any time. The next issue to consider is market expansion.

This question is not too complicated. There is a very good opportunity to promote Fengyoujing beyond Asia, which is the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. The pilgrimage route is a hot road, and many pilgrims die from heat stroke and heat stroke every year. Fengyoujing can be called a miracle drug for pilgrims.

If you want to sell medicine to people on the pilgrimage route, it would be best to use a brand name related to Islam. God or Allah is not a good name because it is too big and could easily backfire. Muhammad is also not very suitable. Using the name of the prophet as a brand name could easily be misinterpreted by those with ulterior motives as offensive and tainted.

Xian Yaowen pondered for a moment and circled the name "Ali". In the Arab world, Ali is a common name, which comes from Ali, Muhammad's cousin, adopted son and son-in-law. He has a very high status in the minds of Arabs.

Ali, plus "Baba", which can represent a variety of honorifics in the Arab world, together form Alibaba, which is both catchy and well-balanced. There is absolutely no problem for it to make its way in the Arab world. If there is one drawback, it is that it can easily be lowered by "Alibaba and the Forty Thieves".

In the process of brand promotion, we must consciously distinguish the two Alibabas.

"In the Middle East and Africa, the brand name is Alibaba, and it is translated into other languages ​​based on this. It always feels a bit strange to use Alibaba as the Chinese trademark... Should we translate it in a free way and add some allusions?"

Xian Yaowen came up with a word "Tianfang". One of the farthest places Zheng He reached when he sailed to the West was Mecca, which was called Tianfang. Later, Tianfang was used to refer to the entire Arabia.

"Tian Fang, Sanbao eunuch...Tian Fang Sanbao or Sanbao Tian Fang?"

"The Three Treasures of Arabian Buddhism is better. Arabian Buddhism has three treasures: Muhammad, Arabian Nights and Fengyoujing. I need to check the printing situation of Arabian Nights. If there is a chance, I will lead the next printing and make up a story of the Three Treasures of Arabian Buddhism to put it in.

It seems that tracing the origin to Germany is not enough, we have to trace it back to the core story of "One Thousand and One Nights" "Hezor Efsanai", following Persia, walking to India, and grafting Xuanzang's journey to the West - Li Shimin gave his younger brother Xuanzang the magical medicine "Laozi Fengyousan" in the palace.

It is said that this medicine was prepared according to the prescription left by Li family ancestor Laozi Li Er. However, the prescription was not created by Laozi, but was won by him from Guiguzi by playing finger-guessing games.

In fact, Guiguzi was not the founder of the prescription. When he first entered Guiguzi as a child, he went up to the east toilet one day and found that the toilet sticks in the east toilet were too fucking dirty. So he went to his master's study to get a roll of bamboo slips, pulled out two bamboo strips from it, and cut two new toilet sticks.

Afterwards, he was discovered by his master, who chased him all over the valley with a feather duster, yelling, "Li Ba, you little bastard, you are so precious that you ruined my "Investiture of the Gods: The Book of Medicine and Stone" by cutting a toilet token.

That day, Guiguzi was in a miserable state. He received a beating and was punished to copy the prescription on the toilet stick a thousand times. The prescription was Fengyousan.

It is said that when Jiang Ziya was a street kid, he went to a tavern to drink King's wine. He saw a brave man who had gone ahead was beaten up by the tavern. He didn't want to get beaten up, so he wrote down this prescription to pay for the wine."

Li Yueru saw Xian Yaowen was in a daze after asking the question, so she asked, "Yaowen, why are you in a daze?"

"Think about something." Xian Yaowen woke up and said, "Sister Chaoqiong, what do you think of what I proposed last time?"

“Control the people’s livelihood?”

Xian Yaowen smiled faintly and said, "Don't say it's so big. To be precise, we grow and sell vegetables, and at most sell rice. We don't do bulk rice business, but only sell high-end rice to rich people."

"High-grade rice?"

"For example, Xinxing white rice, which is eaten by all Guangdong people, can be classified as mid-range rice. Simiao rice, Xiangzhou red rice, Xiaozhan rice, and Wannian tribute rice are all famous rices from various places. They taste good and are sold at a higher price. They can be classified as high-end rice.

When growing vegetables, we can’t just grow vegetables that anyone can grow. We also have to grow some vegetables that are not suitable for the climate in Malaya. To grow these vegetables, we must invest money to create an environment suitable for vegetable growth. This is not something that ordinary people can do.

I have already said it last time, no powerful businessman in Singapore would think of selling vegetables. Once we enter this field, we will be the most powerful vegetable merchants and can rush around and develop wildly.

By the time other powerful businessmen react, we will have already established ourselves and will not be afraid of competition.”

“High-end dishes and high-end rice, the quantity that can be sold won’t be much, right?”

"The profit margin will be higher than that of ordinary dishes. The overall profit is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary dishes, but we will be in contact with high-quality customers. After doing this for a long time and becoming familiar with it, we can launch a VIP ingredient supply plan for such customers. As long as the customer wants to eat it and as long as it is available for sale, we can provide the customer with ingredients from thousands of miles away."

"It would cost so much to go thousands of miles away to buy it. Even if you have money, you wouldn't live like this." Li Yueru said disapprovingly.

"Sister Chao Qiong, do you eat bird's nest?"

"I like it. I eat six or seven bowls of bird's nest every month."

Xian Yaowen chuckled, "Since you mentioned the official bird's nest, it must not be the inferior bird's nest or bird's nest strips, it must be the top-quality bird's nest. Eating six or seven bowls of official bird's nest a month is enough for a family of thirty to have sixteen dishes and four soups for every meal, including both meat and vegetables. There is still money left every month to go to the movies, and when the seasons change, everyone can buy a new set of clothes.

Sister Chao Qiong, you just lightly drink six or seven cups, but it is thirty lives that are lived to the fullest. Do you think you are good at living?"

Li Yueru was stunned for a moment and rolled her eyes at Xian Yaowen, "It's less than ten thousand miles from Malaya to Hong Kong."

"Not close. According to Luo Guanzhong's logic, the journey from Malaya to Hong Kong is 28,000 miles."

"Luo Guanzhong?"

"The Three Kingdoms, the Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Wei had 800,000 soldiers and horses."

"Oh." Li Yueru rolled her eyes again, "The ingredients you mentioned are not the same as the official bird's nest, right? The official bird's nest has been made for hundreds of years, with large inflows and outflows, and they are light, so the shipping costs have long been spread out."

Xian Yaowen waved his hands and said, "Money can't buy what you love. Shipping costs are not important. Most people only pay attention to whether the price of the item matches the selling price, and they don't analyze the selling price in detail.

Let's talk about prostitution. Which client would calculate in detail how many meals the 'husband' in his arms eats a day when he is at home, what he eats, and how much it costs? Is it natural for her to have such big breasts, such a thin waist, and such a perky butt, or is it the result of careful maintenance?
What is the price of natural beauty, and what is the price of beauty that is carefully maintained?

Today I put on Stancon hair oil, French perfume, and wore a Britannia dress..."

Li Yueru glanced at Xian Yaowen and said, "Okay, no need to explain in so much detail. I already understand what you mean. Next time, don't give examples like this."

"It's good that you understand." Xian Yaowen smiled, "When buying things, the first thing to do is to see if you need them, the second is to see if you can afford them, and the third is whether they are worth it. As the saying goes, you won't be poor if you can't eat or wear, but you will be poor if you can't plan.

As a person, if you are not short of money, you should have some hobbies that allow you to spend money, such as gambling and prostitution. The former will ruin your family, and the latter will destroy the house, but it doesn’t matter.

You know whales, right?

Li Yueru nodded.

"The sea is wide and the whales are big. When the whales died, there was no one to collect their bodies. Thousands of years had passed and the number of dead whales should have been outrageous. Add to that the bodies of other fish, and the sea should have been stinking. Why wasn't it stinking?"

"There are fish and crabs in the sea that eat carrion."

"Yes, there are many animals in the sea that live by eating carrion. When one thing dies, everything else grows. When gambling, a big loss is always accompanied by a group of small wins. When it comes to prostitution, when a family breaks up, two new families will be formed. The money and the people are there, and they will continue to grow. One gives birth to two, and two gives birth to three."

"Can you understand it this way?" Li Yueru said with a smile.

Xian Yaowen pretended to be mysterious and said, "Mr. Li Chaoqiong, we run a casino, so we must understand it this way. Any other understanding will be disadvantageous to us."

Li Yueru sneered: "I understand."

Xian Yaowen coughed and continued, "Eating, drinking, whoring, gambling and smoking, only the last one is unacceptable. It's okay to smoke yourself to death, but it will be troublesome if you make a warlord rich, and there may be chaos in the world.

If you don’t gamble or go whoring, then eat and drink. If you know how to have fun, play with your sister-in-law. If you know how to eat, don’t overeat or eat too much. Eat less and eat more carefully. Only eat the head of a goose, only eat the wings of a shark, and only eat the phlegm of a swallow…”

"Yao Wen, you are doing this on purpose. Are you trying to disgust me?" Li Yueru said coquettishly.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Xian Yaowen waved his hand and continued, "If you can't afford expensive ingredients, then you should behave yourself. When do you think this rotten turnip is most delicious?

Listen carefully, you have to wait until it has maggots, and wait until the sixth maggot grows to a weight of one coin, no more and no less, that's when the rotten turnip is most delicious, the taste is so authentic. "(End of this chapter)
