Chapter 201: Xingzhitang takes medicinal herbs
Li Longhai, as Zhang Xu's uncle, is not good at words at home on weekdays, and he just buries his head in eating at the dinner table at this time, and does not have much interaction with Zhang Xu, Li Qiang and Tang Qing.
However, because Li Qiang and Zhang Xu are of the same age and are in the same school, there are naturally a lot of topics to talk about, plus Li Longhai also hopes that Zhang Xu can help Li Qiang with his homework, after eating, the two went to Li Qiang's room together, and at this moment only Li Longhai and Tang Qing were left in the living room.
Li Longhai didn't say a word about what happened in Yao Hongxing's family, but sooner or later Tang Qing would know about it, some time ago, Li Longhai planned to transfer Yao Hongxing to a five-star hotel that is currently under construction, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen in Yao Hongxing's home, it seems that some time ago, Tang Qing proposed to serve as the lobby manager of the newly built five-star hotel, maybe Li Longhai could only nod and agree.
The world of adults is always full of mystery, in comparison, Zhang Xu and Li Qiang are now in their third year of high school, in addition to learning is playing, seemingly simple but also colorful.
Li Longhai did not stay too much at home, so he went out, and the driver Wang Gang had been waiting downstairs for a long time, and at this moment Li Longhai was in a hurry to rush to the five-star hotel that was being built.
Zhang Xu and Li Qiang were playing games in the room, and the voice of his aunt Tang Qing came from the living room: "Li Qiang, you and your cousin come out to eat fruit together!"
Li Qiang frowned and responded, "Got it!" After speaking, he walked out of the room with Zhang Xu holding his mobile phone. The two sat down on the sofa in the living room, and Zhang Xu turned on the TV while eating fruit.
Just when Zhang Xu was fascinated, his aunt Tang Qing came over and said with a smile: "You two are playing at home, it's almost two o'clock, I'm going to go to the beauty salon for a skin SPA, so I won't accompany you." ”
"Okay. Zhang Xu said with a smile, and Li Qiang has been playing games, and has never responded to what his mother Tang Qing said, Zhang Xu looked at his aunt Tang Qing at the door and changed into high heels, then went out, and closed the door casually.
After sitting at his uncle's house for a while, Zhang Xu suddenly remembered that he had made an appointment with Hu Kuande, the manager of Xingzhitang Pharmacy, that he had forgotten the Chinese medicinal materials he had taken from Xingzhitang this morning.
"Cousin, I'm going to Xingzhitang to get some medicinal herbs, do you want to go with me?" Zhang Xu said lightly, he didn't expect Li Qiang to go with him, after all, Li Qiang was in full swing playing games, and he didn't have time to deal with Zhang Xu at all.
"Okay, wait for me for ten more minutes, this game is over, I'll go with you!" Li Qiang stared at the phone screen and said slowly, which was a bit unexpected by Zhang Xu, he didn't expect Li Qiang to agree to go with him.
Sure enough, Li Qiang ended the game after ten minutes, he took the elevator downstairs with Zhang Xu, and the two took a taxi on the side of the road and walked towards Xingzhitang Pharmacy.
Soon the taxi stopped outside the Xingzhitang Pharmacy, Zhang Xu and Li Qiang walked towards the Xingzhitang Pharmacy, and Hu Kuande saw Zhang Xu coming, his face was full of enthusiasm.
"The Chinese medicinal materials that Mr. Zhang asked for were already back yesterday afternoon, and I was ready for the evening, so I waited for Mr. Xiao to come and pick it up this morning, guessing that Mr. Xiao, you must have something important to delay, so I didn't call you, just thinking about it, I didn't expect you to come, Mr. Xiao!" Hu Kuande said with a smile.
Hu Kuande invited Zhang Xu and Li Qiang to the diagnosis and treatment room behind Xingzhitang to chat, and by the way, gave him the medicinal materials that Zhang Xu needed.
There were two or three patients in the treatment room who were infusion on the hospital bed in the middle of the room, Li Qiang inadvertently looked into the room, and Zhang Xu just glanced at it casually.
"Recently, the small clinics on the street are not allowed to hang drips for people without permission, and it is not allowed in the big pharmacies, but fortunately, I have a medical qualification certificate, which is also recognized, so that I can give people infusions, or do some simple wound bandaging, etc., these patients also came two days ago, because of limited economic conditions, some minor illnesses do not want to go to the hospital......" Hu Kuande said softly.
Zhang Xu also has a deep understanding from what Hu Kuande said, when he was sick before, most people would choose to ask the doctor to dispense some medicine in a small clinic on the street, and after taking it for three days, they would basically be cured, but now with the improvement of medical standards and people's living standards, many diseases that can be cured in two or three days take a week or half a month.
People with conditions will naturally choose to go to a better hospital for diagnosis and treatment, and those with limited economic conditions will directly recommend a whole box to him even if they are sick and go to the pharmacy to get medicine, and if it is more serious, the doctor in the pharmacy will persuade the patient to go to the hospital.
In this way, a small cold or bronchial fire, staying in the hospital for a week, will cost about 1,000 yuan or 2,000 yuan, which is also a lot of expenses for ordinary families.
As people often say, people can't live without money, let alone without health, and the most feared thing is that a serious illness will strike, which can instantly make an originally happy family worse in an instant.
"Yes, people nowadays are prone to illness, coupled with environmental pollution, the virus has become more severe, and the treatment has been prolonged. Zhang Xu echoed Hu Kuande's words and said.
Li Qiang listened to what Zhang Xu and Hu Kuande said, his face was dazed, obviously not very interested, Hu Kuande smiled, and then gave Zhang Xu the medicinal materials in the treatment room, and a large cardboard box was full.
"Cousin, what's in here?" Li Qiang said with a puzzled expression, Hu Kuande stood aside and looked at Zhang Xu, and both of them smiled.
Although it looks like a big box, it doesn't feel too heavy when you carry it in your hand, after all, these are some precious Chinese medicinal materials. Zhang Xu and Hu Kuande exchanged a few more words, and then walked out of the consultation room with Li Qiang and Hu Kuande.
After leaving Xingzhitang Pharmacy, Zhang Xu and Li Qiang took a taxi back to the rented community, where Zhang Xu tore open the sealed tape on the cardboard box, and then carefully inspected the medicinal materials inside.
There are cimicifuga, angelica, zombie silkworm, cicada, etc., the quality is excellent, Zhang Xu took out some medicinal materials and put them in his hand, and then sniffed carefully, and couldn't help but praise secretly.
If these medicinal materials are purified in large quantities, they will inevitably allow Jiajia's father to use them as soon as possible, so that his illness can recover faster, thinking of these, Zhang Xu suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.
Li Qiang saw that it was still early, so he sat on the sofa and chatted about WeChat, in addition to swiping the circle of friends over and over again, hoping that Yang Yangming or Qin Yue could contact him at this moment and make an appointment to go out to play together in the evening.
