I can find treasures in my dreams.

Several seconds passed.

Then a representative broke the silence and said something quite chivalrous: "Miss Ling, please carve out a path!"

Ling Shuiling glanced at the other person and then began to speak slowly.

"As a civilization-level cornerstone item, the 'Body Tempering Source Fluid' produced by the mutant passion fruit will sooner or later become standard equipment for every Canglan person. To put it bluntly, every Canglan person will definitely take it.

“According to Director Yang’s research, the effect of taking the Body Tempering Source Liquid decreases gradually, and by the seventh dose, the effect will be very poor.

“Nevertheless, the effect of multiple doses is far stronger than a single dose, and three doses are the most cost-effective option.

“However, considering that some people have a stronger willingness to consume, they may buy five or even six bottles of medicine.

"We have calculated that on average each Canglan person will take 4.5 bottles of Body Tempering Source Liquid. This will be an unprecedentedly large consumer market."

The eyes of the representatives all lit up as they listened.

Before the Age of Natural Disasters, the total population of Canglan Star was 126 billion.

The world has been devastated by various natural disasters for more than three years. According to incomplete statistics, the population is estimated to be just over 100 billion.

This is equivalent to one death for every six people, a shockingly high mortality rate.

According to the most conservative estimates, only half of the current population will take the Body Tempering Source Liquid, which is 50 billion people.

Assuming that each person takes 4.5 doses, this means a huge demand of 225 billion doses.

A middle-aged representative with gray hair couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Ling, what is the estimated price of the Body Tempering Source Fluid?"

Ling Shuiling did not hide it: "The cultivation process of the mutant passion fruit tree is complicated and the cost is quite high. Some of the raw materials involve the resources of the Weeping Green Sea, so the price of the medicine will not be too low. The unit price should be around 1."

The middle-aged man smacked his lips and said, "I think the price is a bit low."

Many people nodded.

Someone even whispered, "5 per potion is more reasonable."

Ling Shuiling shook her head and said, "Director Yang created the Body Tempering Liquid not for personal gain, but to enhance the strength of the entire civilization. How could the price be too high?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay, 1 is a reasonable price."

Ling Shuiling "draws out" the first "path": "President Yang and I don't intend to ask for an exorbitant price, so the valuation of Tianxing Agriculture is calculated at 150 trillion. This is an important premise for this discussion."

The middle-aged man's mind raced, and he said quickly: "According to the basic demand of 225 billion, the sales volume is about 225 trillion.

"In addition, there is also the incremental demand from the newborn population.

“There aren’t many births on Blue Star right now, but the natural disaster will pass sooner or later, and it’s estimated that 10 million people will be born every year in 2 years.

"Based on the calculation that each person takes 4.5 doses, the newborn population can bring about a demand of 9 million doses of medicine per year, and the sales volume of this part is 9 trillion.

"We assume a profit margin of 30%, and the profit from the basic sales of 225 trillion is 67.5 trillion, and the new population can bring 2.7 trillion in profits each year."

Originally the middle-aged man intended to lower the price.

But the more he calculated, the more he felt that the valuation of 150 trillion was not high at all, but actually a little too cheap.

After all, Tianxing Agriculture is a large business, with not only body-tempering source liquid, but also a large number of best-selling products.

The middle-aged man finally nodded and said, "Although the valuation is a bit high, I don't have much opinion."

Others followed suit and expressed their opinions.

"I agree!"

"I have no objection either!"

Calculated at 150 trillion, this is indeed a huge profit, so everyone is willing to sit down and talk.

Ling Shuiling might have been emotionally unstable due to high hormone levels caused by her pregnancy, and she suddenly became angry: "You guys are so hypocritical and greedy."

The middle-aged man was a little unhappy: "Ms. Ling, what are you doing..."

Ling Shuiling interrupted directly: "Let me tell you clearly, how could the profit margin of something like the Body Tempering Liquid, which can enhance the essence of life, be only 30%?

“In addition, you only calculated the sales volume of Canglan Star and did not consider the sales volume of civilized trade at all.

“Do you know how many primordial worlds there are out there? If the civilization trade is well managed, it would be very easy to sell 500 billion bottles of Body Tempering Source Liquid a year.

"Mr. Yang valued Tianxing Agriculture at 150 trillion yuan, which means he gave up a huge profit. How dare you tell me that the valuation is too high?"

The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed, and he argued: "Individuals in each civilization are different. It is still unknown whether the body-quenching liquid has any effect on other civilizations. Besides..."

"boom!"

The female secretary slammed the table again with an annoyed look on her face.

She said harshly, "People from the Civilized Trade Committee also came to visit this time. They also consulted with Iron Fist. Iron Fist's initial evaluation of the potion was not bad. Do you think I don't know?"

The middle-aged man shut up immediately.

Ling Shuiling stroked her belly, her pretty face showing determination: "Director Yang doesn't care much about personal interests, but I have Director Yang's twins in my belly.

"What's more, I'm still very young now. I plan to give birth to another ten or eight children for Director Yang in the future. I must strive for more benefits for my children. Even if Director Yang knew about it, he would not object."

The female secretary directly raised the offer: "I think Tianxing Agriculture's valuation of 150 trillion is too low. I now think 300 trillion is more reasonable."

The meeting room was silent again.

The middle-aged man secretly regretted his bad words and directly offended Miss Ling.

The negotiations have now reached a deadlock, and the final benefits may be greatly reduced.

No one knew that this was a deliberate show performed by Ling Shuiling.

She is from the financial circle and knows better than anyone the profit-seeking nature of these banking representatives.

When Yang Fan decided on the valuation of 150 trillion yuan, she was a very smart woman and did not oppose her boyfriend's decision on the spot.

When it comes to the current negotiations, she takes advantage of the situation and pretends to be emotionally overturned to overturn the previous valuation in order to gain more benefits.

the other side.

In the laboratory.

Just as the female secretary was engaged in a heated argument with the silver group, the experiment on mice demonstrating the effects of the Body Tempering Source Fluid was nearing its end.

Of the six mice participating in the experiment, three were injected with trace amounts of the drug.

The other 3 mice served as the control group and were not injected with any drug.

Everyone saw that the mice injected with the drug, the experimental group, were running around in the cage without stopping for a moment.

The mice in the control group, on the other hand, huddled in a corner and groaned.

Qi Xingbang, chief scientist of the military's Luban Laboratory, was amazed: "The mice injected with the drug are about to give birth, but they are still so energetic. The effect of this drug is really unexpectedly good."

The voice just fell.

One of the experimental group mice stopped and gave birth to several pups effortlessly.

It's like a signal.

The other two mice in the experimental groups also began to give birth quickly.

The cubs showed amazing adaptability. Although they did not open their eyes, they crawled around in the cage, demonstrating good physical fitness and extraordinary spirit.

Another moment passed.

The mice in the control group finally started giving birth.

Their birthing process is even slower, and their young can apparently only wriggle slowly, with no strength in their limbs.

In terms of appearance, the two groups of cubs also have significant differences.

The skin of the cubs in the experimental group was smoother and had a layer of fine hair on the surface, while the skin of the cubs in the control group was completely hairless.

Dean Shen looked left and right and said, "The difference is really huge. I feel like they are two different species."

Yang Fan introduced with a smile: "The Body Tempering Liquid strengthens the origin of life. It not only strengthens the body, but also has certain benefits for the soul."

He picked up a cub and put it into a simple maze nearby.

The cub crawled inside for a while and successfully found the exit and crawled out.

Dean Shen understood this little experiment: "The soul has been strengthened, so the IQ is higher when born, right?"

Yang Fan nodded and said, "Yes."

Qi Xingbang also saw the deep meaning of the experiment: "Director Yang, do you want to suggest that the body-quenching source liquid be given priority to pregnant women?"

Yang Fan nodded again and said, "Using the words in martial arts novels, the strengthening in the mother's womb is considered innate strengthening, while taking medicine after birth is acquired strengthening. Naturally, the former has greater potential."

He put it more bluntly: "Those born after the Age of Superpowers are the true hope of the Blue Civilization."

This sentence also contains a subtext - the current generation is essentially just a stepping stone for the development of civilization.

Qi Xingbang nodded and said, "That makes sense. We should leave hope for the future."

This is a statement that the chief is willing to support Mr. Yang's views.

Shen Jun asked a question: "Where are the superpowers?"

Yang Fan replied: "Psychics are an important fighting force, so of course they can be given priority in taking the potion. On the one hand, it can improve their fighting power and increase the probability of being promoted to a warrior. On the other hand, their descendants will also be more outstanding."

He paused and added: "The Body Quenching Liquid can significantly improve energy and memory, and important scientific researchers can also take it first.

"The military should also be given a portion of the priority quota. With a strong army, Daxia's security will be better guaranteed."

Shen Jun smiled. General He from the military smiled even more brilliantly.

Everyone present knew that as the inventor of the medicine, Mr. Yang’s opinions would certainly be highly valued by the top management.

Minister Liang had been silent just now, but now he expressed his attitude on behalf of the official: "It is now certain that the Body Tempering Source Fluid is a medicine of great historical significance, and it is also the real cornerstone for enhancing the potential of Canglan civilization."

This is very high praise.

The people around nodded in unison to express their high approval of the medicine.

Minister Liang sighed again, "I read the report yesterday, and there was a sentence in it that said 'the advent of the body-hardening potion means the arrival of a new human being'. I thought it was too exaggerated at the time, but now I don't think it's an exaggeration at all."

General He agreed with this: "After taking the medicine, your physical strength will be stronger, your reaction time will be faster, and your life span will be increased by 20 years. You can indeed be called a 'new human being'."

"Snapped!"

The general patted Yang Fan on the shoulder and smiled as he started a relationship: "I'm so proud to call you my brother, but the body-quenching liquid you made really shocked everyone.

"A few days ago, my colleagues and I were discussing who is the most outstanding talent in Daxia, apart from Mr. Ghost and Mr. Crow. Now there is no need to argue. Brother, you are the treasure of Daxia."

Yang Fan looked puzzled after hearing this.

*
After a tug-of-war negotiation, the negotiations on equity finally came to an end.

The representative of the bank consortium proposed a new plan - to establish a new company with the Quenching Source Liquid as the core.

This is a solution that maximizes the interests of both parties.

After all, Tianxing Agriculture still has a large number of circulating shares. If retail investors put the Body Tempering Source Liquid in Tianxing Agriculture, their wealth will also skyrocket and they will win without doing anything.

I have to say that none of those who play with capital are good people.

Ling Shuiling stated the latest plan: "For the newly established 'Sirius Agriculture Company', the valuation will be set at 200 trillion Xia Yuan.

"Director Yang personally holds 60% of the shares. The banking consortium jointly invested 10 trillion yuan and then transferred 70 trillion yuan worth of 'Xingtian Industry' shares, accounting for 40% of the shares."

The so-called "Xingtian Industry" is a company that manufactures exoskeletons. It originally belonged to the Daxia Weapon Industry Group, but later became independent and established a new company.

Because the exoskeleton is a best-seller around the world and is exported in large quantities to the Iron Fist Civilization, its market value has soared to a terrifying 420 trillion Xia yuan.

Xingtian Industries is the company with the highest market value in human history, and it has made the Canglan people deeply realize the potential of civilized trade.

The bank consortium consulted with their superiors, who decided to take out 70 trillion Xingtian Industrial shares. This is enough to show that their superiors are more optimistic about the body-quenching source liquid than the exoskeleton.

Let me say a few more words by the way.

According to estimates within Daxia, Daxia's GDP this year will account for 60% of the world's total, which is a very astonishing figure.

In comparison, before the era of natural disasters, the gross domestic product of Daxia accounted for about 15% of the world's total.

Of course, gross domestic product is only an increment and does not represent the stock.

Ling Shuiling stretched out a white finger and pushed her glasses: "This is the final plan, are you interested?"

The representatives of the banking consortium all shook their heads.

This round of intense negotiations made these people a little tired.

Only the female secretary still looked energetic.

Previously, she accidentally awakened the supernatural trait of "Succubus", and with the help of Yang Fan, she obtained the supernatural trait of "Man of a Thousand Faces", becoming an extremely rare person with dual traits.

The power of the two characteristics makes her physique different from that of ordinary people, so such a small battle is no problem at all.

Especially for succubus, it has a very strong strengthening effect on physical fitness. After all, without excellent physical fitness, how can one become a succubus with strong "combat power"?

Ling Shuiling finally said, "In that case, today's meeting ends here. We will discuss the structure of Sirius Company tomorrow."

She was too lazy to greet the representatives, so she stood up and left the meeting room in her high heels, leaving everyone with an extremely graceful back.

A few seconds passed.

The middle-aged man just now whispered: "This woman is more beautiful than before, and more difficult to deal with than before."

One representative was deeply touched: "Even with so many of us joining forces, we couldn't defeat her alone."

Another representative was more concerned about her appearance: "Ms. Ling is so beautiful that it makes people obsessed. Before I met her, I couldn't believe that a woman could be so beautiful."

The middle-aged man kindly reminded them: "Don't discuss Miss Ling herself. This lady's current status is different. If she says one word, you will all get out."

Several representatives shut up.

In the other room.

Ling Shuiling took out her phone and sent a message to her boyfriend: "You are now a super super rich man with a net worth of 200 trillion. No one in the entire Canglan Star is richer than you."

Three “super” characters were used in a row because “super rich” is not enough to express the order of magnitude of wealth.

The female secretary immediately sent a second message: "From a net worth of 100 billion to 10 trillion and then to 100 trillion, no one in the world has ever accumulated wealth faster than you. How do you feel now?"

Several seconds passed.

The reply came: "I have no feelings about money, it's just a string of numbers."

Ling Shuiling's mouth curved slightly, and she replied: "Money is a resource. You control more resources and can do whatever you want, such as the 'biological brain' project you are currently researching."

Getting shares of Xingtian Industry through negotiation was exactly what my boyfriend wanted.

She stretched out her left hand to touch her slightly bulging belly and whispered, "Your father is a very, very powerful man!"

Southern Hemisphere.

Yanzhou.

Since the advent of the era of natural disasters, Yanzhou has had little presence on the international stage.

This is not to say that Yanzhou did not have its share of disasters.

On the contrary, the natural disasters that broke out in Yanzhou were more severe than those in Dongzhou, and due to the serious underdevelopment of the economy, more people died on this continent.

Before the disaster, the total population of Yanzhou was 21 billion. As of last month, according to rough estimates, the population of Yanzhou is likely to be less than 10 billion.

More than half less!
It’s just that Yanzhou is too underdeveloped, and the media in various countries have little interest in reporting on it, which leads to Yanzhou being extremely low-key in the media.

for instance.

Almost three years ago, when the poisonous mosquito disaster broke out, Madagascar, the largest island in Africa, with a total area of ​​more than 70 square kilometers, was the world's largest nest of poisonous mosquitoes.

none of them.

The east coast of Madagascar is full of swarms of poisonous mosquitoes, and there are no less than 100 mutated poisonous mosquitoes.

The most horrific poisonous mosquito tide on the Blue Planet once broke out here, and almost all human gathering places on the east coast were flooded.

When the poisonous mosquito disaster was basically over, the East Coast became a completely uninhabited area.

Originally, there were more than 3200 million people living on Madagascar Island, but 600 million of them died during the mosquito disaster, accounting for nearly one-fifth of the total population.

Nearly half of the people on this island migrated across the ocean to the Yanzhou continent to escape the poisonous mosquito disaster.

Over the next two years, Madagascar was devastated by various natural disasters, and the remaining population was less than 500,000, which was extremely miserable.

About half a year ago.

A fleet of Daxia arrived at Madagascar and quietly took over the largest island in Yanzhou.

After half a year of construction, the Daxia people have built six new cities on the island, and together with the renovated five abandoned cities, they now control a total of eleven cities.

More than three million Daxia people moved to Madagascar one after another.

At this moment.

In the port of Tianya on the island of Madagascar.

Ha Xiaofu held his son and walked up the gangway to the dock with his wife.

He was the first beneficiary of the "Daxia Bride Plan" and married a beautiful foreign wife named Irene.

In order to increase the population of overseas controlled areas, Daxia specially introduced a bill to provide high subsidies for immigrants.

For example, every citizen who moves to Madagascar can receive a one-time subsidy of up to 3 yuan, and a monthly subsidy of 3000 yuan for the next three years.

Not only that, the state also provides free housing and directly assigns jobs, as well as a series of benefits including medical care, transportation, and food.

After discussing for a while, the couple decided to sell the house to the government and moved their family to Madagascar with the ideal of expanding Daxia's territory (money is their biggest concern).

The broadcast at the dock sounded: "Dear passengers, due to the warmer weather, the poisonous mosquitoes are showing signs of resurgence. Please be sure to wear mosquito-proof clothing."

Ha Xiaofu habitually checked his daughter's mosquito-proof clothing, then turned to look at his wife and said, "The Immigration Office is at the dock. Let's go register first."

Irene nodded: "Okay!"

The two men mixed in with the group of immigrants and followed the crowd for a few steps when they suddenly heard a scream.

"Poisonous mosquito!"

"There are poisonous mosquitoes over there!"

Ha Xiaofu heard the sound and looked over. With his good eyesight, he immediately caught a few small white dots flying towards him quickly.

This is actually an ice mosquito.

That is, the new species of poisonous mosquitoes mutated after the cold wave disaster occurred.

Today, the first generation of poisonous mosquitoes on Blue Star are almost extinct, replaced by ice mosquitoes that are more adapted to cold climates. (End of this chapter)
