Chapter 3 I want to be the god of medicine

Just when Shakru was anxiously defending against these proposers, suddenly an old man with gray hair found him and asked him with a serious expression: "Little Shakru, do you really want to marry a low-caste woman?"

Although the old man's tone was not good, Shakru didn't mind at all, because this old man was none other than his uncle Karthus-Pandeit, and almost the entire father's funeral was organized by him, so he not only owed his elders, but also owed people family favors, so Shakru had to reply with a wry smile: " My father just left, how could I have the heart to think about getting married, you know, in the days when my father just left, how bad my mental state was, so I inadvertently said the wrong thing, and then it became like this, in fact, I explained it to them, but they just didn't listen!"

Hearing Shakru's answer, Cart breathed a long sigh of relief: "Whew, I'll just say, how can you be so confused, little Shakru." You must know that our Pandit family is a Brahmin of pure blood, even if it is a smooth marriage, we can only marry Kshatriya women, how can we let those low-caste women pollute our noble bloodline?"

Then his tone aggravated: "If you really do this kind of thing for the sake of such a small amount of money, not to mention that all the members of the Pandit family, including me, will not recognize you, even if you see your father in the future, he will not spare you!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I know, how could I make such a mistake of principle!" Shakru agreed repeatedly, but he sighed in his heart, no wonder those Vaishya rich people were so crazy when they heard that a Brahmin boy was willing to marry a low-caste girl, it seems that this is really difficult, even if you agree, you have to consider the wishes of the entire family, otherwise how can you gain a foothold in the family in the future? This price is really too great, unless this Brahmin guy is alone and has no relatives, but this probability is too low.

Seeing Shakru's attitude, Uncle Carter stroked his beard with satisfaction and asked him, "Little Shakru, now that my brother's future affairs are almost done, do you have any plans for the future?"

Shakru hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Well, I do have an idea, but I haven't done specific research yet, so I don't know how feasible it is." ”

"Oh, what do you think, say it, and my uncle will help you refer to it. Carter asked curiously.

"I want to do a business......"

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Carthus: "Little Shakru, have you forgotten that our noble brahmins are not allowed to do business? That's what Vaishyas do!"

Although the old man said very politely, but Shakru knew that he was telling the truth, as mentioned earlier, the job of the Vaishyas class is agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and sideline fishing to support the Brahmins and Kshatriyas, so business is the exclusive occupation of their class, although now the official abolition of the caste system, but in actual life still follow this law, even if the noble high-caste lord, if he dares to come to steal business, he will be resisted by all businessmen, and the general high-caste does not disdain to do this kind of thing, how easy it is to make money as an official...... (Even India's richest man is Vaishya, but no one dares to look down on him when his wealth reaches his level, and Mirta, the second-richest steel tycoon, simply became a British citizen.) )

So Shakru hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, Uncle Carthus, the business I said has nothing to do with Vaishyas, it is a bit similar to the computer software in Bangalore now, so it doesn't matter if we Brahmins do it." (A new industry like the software industry is not limited by caste, so a lot of Dalits and Shudras have poured into the industry, and now India's software industry is among the best in the world.) )

"Oh, that's okay. Uh, what kind of business are you going to do this time?" asked Carter with a sigh of relief.

"It's a bit troublesome to explain, simply put, it is to help people from other countries to buy generic drugs, because of our special protection policy in India, so we can imitate expensive foreign drugs at a very low price, so we can try to sell these generic drugs to patients in other countries who can't afford to eat genuine drugs, so that we can not only make money, but also save people, why not do such a thing that kills two birds with one stone?"

That's right, in fact, Shakru's idea was inspired after watching the topical movie "I Am Not the God of Medicine", which was popular at the time, before crossing over.

Due to professional reasons, at that time, Shakru and his colleagues had seriously discussed how to reasonably and legally solve the problem of patients buying generic drugs, but one of the biggest difficulties at that time was the need for the cooperation of the Indian side, such as doctors' prescriptions and pharmacies and even mail clearance, and even required to blur some necessary procedures, which was naturally very unrealistic, because this is equivalent to transferring most of the troubles of Chinese patients to the Indian side, and the most important thing is that a single transaction cannot make much money at all, unless the business can be expandedWin by quantity.

But now that he has become an Indian, especially a high-caste Brahmin, he should not miss this opportunity, just because he has been busy with his father's afterlife some time ago, so he has not had time to run the hospital.

After listening to Shakru's explanation, Uncle Carthus suddenly realized: "Oh, if that's the case, it's worth doing, but why are you so unsure?

"The most difficult thing in this is the hospital, first of all, we have to get the cooperation of the hospital, but we can't buy drugs in the hospital, this kind of unprofitable and tiring thing is normally something that no one wants to do. Shakru said distressedly.

"You also said that this is normal and no one wants to do it, which means that it can be done under abnormal circumstances. It doesn't matter, I'll leave this matter to me, I happen to know a doctor in a public hospital, as long as you are willing to share some money with him and ensure the authenticity of all patient information, he will definitely dare to cooperate with you in doing anything!" Uncle Carter assured, patting his chest.

"Uncle Carterus, what you said is true, that's great, the biggest problem that bothered me will be solved!" said Shakru happily.

PS: Although India claims to be free of charge in public hospitals, the quality is very poor, not only are there few medical staff, but there is also a shortage of medicines, so the income of medical staff in public hospitals is very low, and corruption is very common in India, so I think this method has a good chance of success.
