In the sales department office of Ding's Pharmaceutical Factory, Wang Lei leaned back with his legs crossed, leisurely sipping his freshly brewed Longjing tea.
Just a few months ago, he had been running to pharmacies all over the country, humbly begging them to stock his products.
But now, the tables had completely turned. His phone rang from morning till night, with every call from a pharmacy owner somewhere in the country, each one politely begging him to approve a larger shipment.
This was especially true for the Strongly Fragrant Dry Rice Pills. Ever since Lu Yu recommended them on Weibo, the orders had exploded.
But production was limited, so every pharmacy was given a supply quota.
Scarcity creates value. The more restricted the sales, the more sought-after the product became.
Now, a 300g box of the Rice Pills was being sold on the black market for as high as 50,000 yuan, more than double the official price.
