Chapter 96 Rescue, Huimin Su
Ze only heard the woman in brocade clothes disguised as a man talking to the old man in medical uniforms:
"Huang Tiju, I want to set up an anti-fungal medicine office at the system Huimin Pharmacy." (prevention of infectious diseases), Bao Chai (obstetrics and gynecology), Huimin (cheap medicine) and other departments, why does our Huimin Medical Bureau here only have a cold and heat (cold) department?" "Fang, Mr. Fang, you don't know something
. , the income of the medical bureau is really too low, all the doctors have gone to Shaw Medical Clinic, and Hanretang relies on the old man and his son to support it, and it is really impossible to open another clinic." The woman in brocade frowned and asked: "The new
prefect After taking office, haven't you already made up the life insurance money owed to the medical bureau? Why are you still like this?" "As soon as
this life insurance money arrived at the pharmacy, several drug dealers came to visit us. We have owed too much over the years. The medicine money is not enough for Zhuangzi to share."
This old man was promoted by Huimin Pharmacy. The promotion by the Pharmacy is not an official, not even an official. Like the hundreds of households in the health department, it is a position passed down from generation to generation by medical households. .
The Huang family is the contemporary promotion of Nanping County Huimin Pharmacy. Before Su Ze crossed over, he was the director of a third-class hospital in a prefecture-level city.
However, Huang Tiju's clothes were full of patches, and his hands were covered with calluses and burns. Su Ze could tell with his [medical skills] that these were traces of long-term preparation of traditional Chinese medicine.
Such a large Huimin Pharmacy Tieju actually had to concoct her own medicinal materials, which shows that this Huang Tieju is really having a miserable time.
The woman in golden clothes asked: "How can there be such a deficit?"
Huang Tiju said with a grimace: "When the medicine is applied at the beginning of every month, the rogues in the city will block the door of the pharmacy, collect low-price medicine and then take it. Selling on the street, if the medication is not enough, they will pester me to go to the official. The medication at the beginning of every month will consume most of the medicinal materials purchased by the pharmacy, so there is no income." Huimin Pharmacy is considered a welfare
. The organization will distribute medicines at the beginning of every month, usually some mixtures to treat diarrhea or colds.
Originally this policy was considered a good policy, but soon rogues targeted the pharmacy for charity.
Every time when alms are given, these gangsters will rush into the pharmacy, snatch the donated medicines, and then sell them at high prices on the street in front of the pharmacy.
People who really need medicine cannot get free medicine, and these ruffians regard monthly medication as welfare. If the free medicine provided by the pharmacy is insufficient, they will beat and scold Huang Tiju.
The woman in Jinyi asked in surprise: "Yamen doesn't care about it?"
"Yamen, how can the Yamen control it? Most of the gangsters here in the pharmacy are from the Bawang Society. Together with the Luohanjiao at the city gate, they are called the two major societies in Nanping County. There are many people behind them. With the backing of a wealthy family, it is not something that Huang Tiju, a pharmacy, can offend."
Huang Tiju sighed again and said, "I have also taught several smart apprentices, and now they all go to medical clinics. Huimin Pharmacy, this It's hard to earn enough to support a family."
"Even if there weren't these gangsters robbing medicine, the pharmacy wouldn't be able to make any money. I don't have all the medicines here, so how can I treat people?"
Huang Tiju's father's generation, Huimin Medicine The bureau had a medicine field. At that time, Huimin Pharmacy could still be maintained relying on the output of the medicine field. When officials and squires in the city got sick, they would politely ask their father to see a doctor.
But in Huang Tiju's generation, all the drug fields of the pharmacy were sold by the government, and the "life insurance money" specially allocated was often in arrears. It was actually delayed for a whole year before the new prefect took office!
In order to keep the pharmacy going, Huang Tiju even broke into his own property.
If it weren't for his own son still helping out in the pharmacy, this pharmacy wouldn't even be able to treat cold and fever patients.
The woman in Jinyi finally believed what Huang Tiju said, the Huimin Pharmacy in Yanping Prefecture really couldn't sustain it anymore.
In fact, this pharmacy is pretty good. Huimin Pharmacies in some areas have closed down.
"If I withdraw one year's life insurance money first, can I replenish the supply of medicinal materials?"
"Commonly used medicinal materials can be replenished, but now everyone in the city goes to Shaw Medical Center for difficult and complicated diseases. It is difficult to maintain the supply of medicinal materials alone. ."
"You make up for it first, and then I'll find a way to call on the nobles in the city to come to your place for medical treatment."
Poof, Su Ze couldn't help laughing.
Huang Tiju and the woman in brocade both looked at Su Ze.
Then the woman in brocade clothes asked with a smile on her lips: "Why are you laughing, sir?"
Someone discovered the eavesdropping and laughed at the other party in public. Su Ze could only hold up his hands and said: "I accidentally overheard the conversation between the two of you. It was really abrupt, so I left. "
Wait a minute, Master, are you laughing at what I said?"
Seeing that the woman in brocade clothes was smiling, but her words contained a gun and a stick, Su Ze was not ready to coddle her, and said directly: "
There is a restaurant open and I'm shouting at my companions." We go to eat and drink, but I have never seen anyone telling people to go to the medical clinic. If the disease cannot be cured, what's the use?"
Huang Tiju lowered his head in shame. In fact, his medical skills are not low in this city. Seeing a doctor is enough, but it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. There are too many medicinal materials and there is no way to prescribe medicine.
The woman in brocade clothes was a little dissatisfied, but Su Ze was telling the truth. Seeing a doctor was not a meal, so there was no way he would tell others to go.
She rolled her eyes and said, "Young Master, I just heard that, the pharmacy is like this, do you have a way to bring the dead back to life?" Do you
want your ideas to work in vain?
Su Ze said without interest: "The disease is in the bone marrow, where the commander belongs, there is nothing we can do."
Su Ze was about to leave like this, but he didn't expect this woman in brocade to stand in front of him and ask: "Han Feizi?"
Su Ze then Come to think of it, the ancient prose in my school textbooks is not knowledge that ordinary scholars can have access to in this era.
The ancient texts of the Pre-Qin Dynasty were very popular in the Ming Dynasty, but too many of them were lost in the past dynasties, and major bibliophiles cherished them for their own sake. They were not as widely disseminated as in the information age.
The woman in brocade clothes felt that Su Ze was extraordinary when she heard Su Ze casually say Han Fei's words.
He only saw this woman in brocade clothes bowing to Su Ze and saying, "Huimin Pharmacy is set up to benefit the people. If you really have a way, please give me some advice." Su Ze was a little surprised that the woman in brocade clothes could allow the pharmacy to benefit the people
. Being promoted to be a companion, and being able to ask a big family in the city to come and see a doctor, it was obviously an extraordinary status.
But she did not use her status to suppress herself, but humbly asked herself for advice.
And she really wants Huimin Pharmacy to "benefit" the people.
The Huimin Pharmacy is open, so it can still benefit some people.
If it really goes bankrupt, ordinary poor people will have to wait to die if they get sick.
Su Ze thought of this and decided to do something for Huimin Pharmacy.
He responded with a salute and said: "Tiju, do you have paper and pen?"
Huang Tiju immediately said: "Yes, yes!"
Huang Tiju guided Su Ze and the woman in brocade to the counter, took out paper and pen and spread them on Su Ze before.
Su Ze was tall and extraordinary. Huang Tiju had some vague expectations in his heart and wanted to know what he could do to bring the pharmacy back to life.
Su Ze picked up the pen and quickly wrote down several medicinal materials and their proportions.
With his current level 1 medical skills, he naturally doesn't have any powerful prescriptions.
But to solve the medical bureau's predicament, it doesn't take too drastic a prescription.
Su Ze wrote the first prescription, which became a very common therapeutic drink in later generations and the most popular drink in Fujian and Guangzhou - herbal tea.
Herbal tea was very popular in the Fujian and Guangzhou regions in later generations. It can clear away heat and detoxify, produce body fluids and quench thirst, dispel fire and remove dampness. It is suitable for all ages and is considered a therapeutic drink. Although herbal tea without sugar is bitter, it has a unique sweet taste. If you add more sugar, it will be a drink with a unique flavor.
Moreover, as a common drink in Fujian and Guangzhou, herbal tea requires common medicinal materials, which are not expensive.
After writing down the recipe for herbal tea, Su Ze took up the pen and wrote down the recipe for sour plum soup.
The main ingredients of sour plum soup are processed black plums and hawthorns, which are also common medicinal materials in pharmacies and are very cheap.
This drink is also very popular across the country. Su Ze wrote a recipe improved in the Qing Dynasty, which is just right for the hot summer in Fujian.
Su Ze wrote down the two recipes, handed them to Huang Tiju and said:
"Every day, you can make two large cans of soup and tea according to these two recipes and put them at the door. Within the next ten days, people will drink them for free. Wait until ten days later to move it back and sell it."
"You can decide the selling price yourself. You can first put the soup and tea in a bamboo tube and let someone buy it back together with the bamboo tube. If you want to buy next time, you only need to bring the bamboo tube and it will not be counted as a bamboo tube. Money."
Huang Tiju and the woman in brocade looked at each other. After looking at each other, Huang Tiju asked,
"Sir, what are these two prescriptions for?"
Su Ze said, "The first prescription is for clearing away heat and disinfecting. " It can dispel fire and remove dampness. You can drink it even if you are not sick." "
The latter recipe is a sweet soup. It will taste better if you add sugar. But your pharmacy cannot afford to add sugar. This is a drink to relieve the heat in summer. At most it has the effect of strengthening the stomach and digesting food."
Huang Tiju thought for a while, and pharmacologically speaking, Su Ze's two prescriptions are indeed so effective, but isn't he a pharmacy? How come you started selling soup and tea?
The woman in brocade's eyes lit up. In fact, drinks were already very popular in the Ming Dynasty.
In "Neng Duo Shi Shi" written in the early Ming Dynasty, the preparation methods of many kinds of drinks were recorded, and the fourth volume of "Dietary Cure Prescriptions" is dedicated to the health care diet of the elderly and introduces the therapeutic methods of using food to treat common diseases of the elderly.
Nowadays, the great Confucian scholars in the field of mind also pay attention to "eating in accordance with the weather" and eating corresponding foods in the four seasons to purify the body and mind.
Although I don't know how Su Ze's two prescriptions taste, Huimin Pharmacy sells dietary drinks, and there seems to be nothing wrong with them.
With my own connections, I can also use some connections to get dignitaries in the city to patronize me.
The raw materials in this recipe are not very valuable, they are all common medicinal materials, and Huimin Pharmacy also has them in stock. If the price is reasonable, you can still make money.
As long as it can make money, Huimin Pharmacy can hire more doctors and purchase more medicinal materials, and the pharmacy can continue to operate.
The woman in gilded clothes bowed to Su Ze sincerely and said, "Thank you sir for the prescription."
Then she added, "I dare to ask Mr. Gao for his name. If he can really bring the pharmacy back to life, I will definitely give him a reward." Let's go to the house."
Although it was just two drinks, they seemed to be family secret recipes. Su Ze's friendship was quite important.
However, the woman in brocade didn't know that this was just a recipe for Level 1 skills, and Su Ze had a better drink recipe behind him.
If Huimin Pharmacy can really open up the situation and develop the beverage market, Su Ze will also consider asking people from Changning Wei to set up stalls to sell tea on traffic thoroughfares.
Moreover, Su Ze was also moved by the woman in brocade's heart to benefit the people, so he came up with a solution for the pharmacy.
As for whether it would work, and whether he would be blackmailed by the gangsters of the Bawang Club after making money, this was not what Su Ze wanted to think about.
However, it is not Su Ze's style to do good deeds without leaving his name. He returned the greeting and said: "I am Chang Ning Wei Su Ze, and Meng Hai teaches Qing Yan to study at the county school." Originally, Su Ze just
reported his name and address casually, but he didn't expect this Jinyi The woman said: "It turns out that Mr. Su Ze, who is the 'Guan Qi Zhang Book of Benevolence and Righteousness', is rude."
Su Ze was stunned. He didn't expect that the woman in brocade had actually heard the question she asked Magistrate Bai.
Is the circle of scholars in Nanping County so small?
Then the woman in brocade clothes said with a smile: "Since the prescription was given by Mr. Su, please name these two drinks."
Su Ze thought for a moment and said, "Let the first tea be called Huimin Herbal Tea. " It is meant to benefit the people."
"The second drink already has a name, let's call it sour plum soup."
The woman in Jinyi repeatedly said: "Huimin herbal tea, good! It sounds like something to benefit the people. Sour plum soup is even more special. It makes me eloquent after listening to it, it must be a great way to relieve the heat. I admire Mr. Su's talent."
Su Ze then remembered that he came here to practice his skills, so why did he come up with a recipe and a name?
This woman is poisonous!
Under her courteous appearance, she can always achieve her goals through words.
I'm afraid she's not a fox!
Su Ze thought of this and said simply: "There are still classes in the afternoon. Su takes leave."
After saying this, Su Ze left Huimin Pharmacy without looking back.
Huang Tiju held two prescriptions and said anxiously: "Master Fang, can this method work?"
Mr. Fang took the prescriptions and said, "In this case, I will pay half of the silver. This business We are considered a partnership."
"Partnership?"
Huang Tiju was stunned for a moment, only to hear Mr. Fang say:
"If there is a loss, the pharmacy and I will bear it together, and if we make money, I will also share half of the profit."
Huang Tiju thought about it . Thinking about it, if you want to buy tea jars and bamboo tubes, you also need to spend money. This is a solution that has both ends.
The woman in brocade clothes added: "If you want to make money, send 20% of the profit to the county school to Mr. Su." "
Why is this?"
"People give prescriptions out of the desire to benefit the people. Repay kindness with kindness. This is the long-term solution. Can't we give up this little advantage?"
Although Huang Tiju was a little reluctant, he did not dare to disobey Mr. Fang and could only nod in agreement.
Mr. Fang then said, "You can make a copy, and I will take Fang Zi's original copy back."
Huang Tiju dared to disobey this person's wishes, so he quickly said, "Yes!"
"Young Master" Fang looked at Su Ze Lv3 He shook his head and said: "This word is not even as good as that of father. It is indeed a bit bad, but the person is interesting." "
I want to go back and write a letter to my uncle, and I can still do business like this!"
Su Ze hurried to the county school We walked, but we didn't expect that when we arrived in front of the county school gate, the Lingxing Gate was blocked by cars and horses, and the queues reached the City God's Temple at the entrance of the alley.
When did the county school become so lively?
