Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Patrick studied his guest.

Seventeen or eighteen years old - too young.

Well-dressed – and worth a lot of money.

Calm and collected - seems confident in what he is going to present.

He looked at his watch, "Five minutes, you have five minutes to tell me why you're here, and it better be worth breaking into someone's office without permission."

Murphy smiled, "One minute is enough."

He waited for Patrick to pour him a glass of water and was in no hurry to speak.

"Young man, you don't have a lot of time," Padrick reminded.

Murphy nodded, "Mr. Patrick, a reporter said that you are the best drug seller. You must have done a lot of research on drugs. So, what is the best drug for treating trauma that you know?"

"Treating trauma?"

Patrick frowned, this statement was quite amateurish.

The treatment of trauma involves too many aspects. Does it refer to wound suturing, bone grafting, anti-inflammation and sterilization, or hemostasis and pain relief?

The drugs or medical devices used in these steps are different. Simply saying the best drug for treating trauma is like asking what is the healthiest food, which is impossible to answer.

This guy is definitely a layman.

However, he still said patiently: "You mean antibiotics for disinfection and sterilization? Penicillin is still the most commonly used drug to treat traumatic infections. Cephalosporins are also very good and have few side effects..."

"You misunderstood." Murphy interrupted, "I mean medicine that can help wounds heal."

Patrick glanced at Murphy, "Young man, I don't know if you have ever taken any further medical courses. If you have basic medical knowledge, you should understand that the main factor affecting wound healing is actually infection..."

"Are there no drugs that can promote cell division and speed up wound healing?"

"No! If you are referring to the so-called growth factors, it is true that last year's Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded to Stanley and Rita, but this substance is still far away from medical use..."

"If I said that this bottle of potion in my hand can heal any wound in a few minutes or even seconds, would you believe it?"

"impossible!"

Patrick insisted, "Such an effect cannot be achieved by drugs. What you are talking about will only exist in those science fiction novels."

Murphy smiled and took out a pair of scissors from the pen holder on the table, "Mr. Patrick, are you ready to witness a miracle?"

"What do you want to do?" Patrick was obviously nervous when he saw the scissors in Murphy's hand.

However, Murphy did not answer, and made a direct cut on his wrist with the scissors.

Blood spurted out immediately.

"Oh! No! God! What are you doing!" Patrick exclaimed.

"Calm down! Patrick! Calm down! Then, watch carefully! I don't want to cut myself again!"

Murphy said as he used white fresh essence. After a few seconds, the blood flow stopped and the wound disappeared.

Murphy wiped away the blood with his hand, and then raised his wrist with only a faint blood stain in front of Patrick.

"see it?"

"This is impossible!" Patrick opened his eyes wide, "Magic?"

"There's still some in the bottle, you can try it yourself."

A few minutes later, after stabbing himself and his assistant twice, Patrick believed it.

After driving out the assistant who was frightened by being stabbed twice by his boss, Patrick paced back and forth in the office with a serious look on his face.

While he was thinking, he asked several questions, which were similar to the questions David asked at that time, asking about the source of the drug, whether it had a patent, and so on.

But he asked more, including whether the drug has been registered, the production method, the output, and whether it can be produced on a large scale.

Murphy answered truthfully, "The drug has not been registered yet, and I don't know much about the process. In terms of output, its preparation method is actually very simple. As long as the raw materials are sufficient, mass production is not a big problem."

Patrick nodded, "We need to arrange clinical trials as soon as possible to prove the safety of the drug, then register the patent, and purchase a factory at the same time. We can produce it first. As long as the clinical trial results are not too bad and the side effects are within the acceptable range, it will It’s bound to be a hit! Even if it doesn’t turn out well, it has a lot of uses.”

"us?"

"You came here specifically to find me, maybe you want to poach me away." Patrick stared at him.

"I know my abilities, and there are many people who want to poach me, but Lanshan treats me well, and I have no intention of leaving. However, you are different... This... you call it Baiyao? Baiyao is different! "

"Although more verification is needed, it has convinced me. In fact, no one in the pharmaceutical industry can refuse such a drug!"

"This is simply magic, a miracle! Just like the emergence of penicillin, it is a great invention that subverts people's understanding and changes the world!"

"There was no way I was going to miss an opportunity like this."

At this point, he asked: "How much start-up capital do you have?"

Murphy thought for a moment, "About 1.5 million."

A Porsche 959 costs more than 200,000 US dollars, which is actually less than 150,000 US dollars when converted into pounds. After a lot of twists and turns, more than half of the previous two million is left.

Jim was right, two million pounds was indeed enough for him to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.

Patrick was a little shocked, "It's quite a lot, enough for us to acquire some good pharmaceutical companies. I still have more than 500,000 yuan here, which should be enough to cover the early expenses."

Murphy thought for a while, "Actually, I just want to hire you. I need to have absolute control over this drug."

Patrick nodded, "I understand. But please believe me, I am worth your share of the equity."

The slightly bald man looked directly at Murphy, an expression he had probably practiced deliberately.

His focused and calm gaze makes it easy to feel his sincerity and create a sense of trust.

"I can't commit now, but I will seriously consider it," Murphy said.

Patrick was a little disappointed, but he quickly calmed down, "I need you to tell me roughly the production process of Baiyao. I don't need to reveal the confidential parts, but I need to know what kind of process and equipment should be used to produce this drug. to find the right factory.”

"Can."

In fact, there is nothing to keep secret. The production of white fresh essence is very simple.

Its original production method is to boil it in a crucible and use a purification spell.

But after experimentation, Murphy found that the purification spell was unnecessary.

Taking advantage of the water solubility of the white essence, he designed an extraction experiment. He crushed the fresh white leaves, put them into a reaction kettle, added water and glycerin, stirred, filtered, heated, controlled the temperature, and then condensed. After repeating several times , the purity of the white fresh essence obtained is much higher than that of the traditional crucible refining method.

Even a Muggle, as long as he has white berries, can obtain the white berries essence through this simple extraction.

This goes completely against the basic principles Murphy learned in Potions class.

Wizards believe that any kind of potion must be made with the wizard's will and magic mixed in more or less intentionally or unintentionally.

Now it seems that this is probably just wishful thinking on the part of the wizard.

Magic does not only exist in the wizard's body. The effectiveness of potions still mainly depends on the reaction between substances, not the will of the wizard.

After briefly explaining the experimental steps to Patrick, Murphy emphasized: "Raw materials are the key to Baiyao. Only I can provide this raw material at the moment."

Patrick nodded, "It sounds like the key step in making white medicine is extraction."

He searched on his desk and brought out a piece of paper.

"Then the most suitable ones for us are not these chemical synthesis factories. Herbal medicine manufacturers are our target."

He crossed off most of the names on that list, eventually leaving three or four.

"These companies may meet the requirements. I will personally inspect them tomorrow and report to you tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"Are you ready to start now?" Murphy couldn't help but admire his mobility.

"Of course! I seem to be back to when I was young and just entered the industry, as if the whole world is waiting for me to explore and conquer! I simply can't wait for a moment!"

Murphy smiled and said, "I'm starting to think I should give you some shares."

Patrick also smiled, "Mobilizing employees requires a blank check, and you're on the right track, boss."

"So, what should I do?"

"Think of a good name, register a company, prepare money...I will handle the drug registration application approval, and the other...nothing at the moment...Oh, by the way, you said the key to Baiyao is the raw material. You may need to guarantee it. Material supply.”

"I have a hunch that we will soon face order pressure."
