With the list of Chinese medicines written to me by Zhong Lingxiu, I found a large pharmacy near the school, which sold Chinese herbal medicines.

In fact, the clinic originally planned to open a Chinese medicine shop, because there is a Chinese medicine clinic, which can not only treat the rich, but also ordinary people. It's just that it's still in its infancy, and I plan to focus on TCM conditioning.

The main reason is because I don't have a purchase channel now, and I was busy with the final exam and recruitment a few days ago, so I didn't have time to talk to the channel of traditional Chinese medicine about it.

In addition, there were recruitment advertisements, but there were several waiters, but there were no Chinese medicine doctors who came to apply. Seeing that the medical hall was about to open, he could only buy a batch of medicinal herbs for medicinal baths first.

I asked Zhong Lingxiu if she had any channels to buy medicinal herbs, and she said that they were too far away.

Too far? Now that the road is in all directions, how far can it be? Anyway, she just didn't want to say a few channel dealers, or she was afraid of exposing her origins, so I couldn't ask about it, so I could only take the prescription to the big pharmacy to grab the medicine.

It's just that when I handed over the list, the pharmacist at the pharmacy took a few looks, frowned, and said, "Among the dozen or so medicinal herbs, we have eight kinds of medicinal materials here, but there are not many stocks, and there are six other kinds that are not available in our big pharmacy." ”

"Out of stock?"

"Well, it's out of stock, and there are two kinds of ones that are quite expensive and rare."

"That'...... Where can I sell it in Shanghai? ”

"There should be a Baiwei Chinese medicine shop, you go there and ask."

"Do you know the address?"

"They have several branches, the nearest one is in Jing'an District, around Nanjing West Road, you can just ask passers-by when you get there."

"Thank you." I politely replied and left the pharmacy. I got in the car and asked the taxi driver, he knew the location of this Chinese medicine shop, and the car went straight to Baiwei Chinese medicine shop.

I thought it was in some remote area, but it wasn't, but in the center of Jing'an District, a prosperous area, and the façade was also a full three-story building, and the signboard of the Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop could be seen from afar.

There is still an endless stream at the entrance of the Chinese medicine shop, many people come in and out, and most of the people who come out are still carrying Chinese medicine.

After inquiring at the door, I learned that the first floor of this Chinese medicine shop sells Chinese herbal medicines, and the second and third floors are clinics, which specialize in treating people, and I heard that the doctors inside are very good.

Looking at the endless flow of patients in front of me, as well as the luxuriously decorated Chinese medicine shop, I was stunned.

Because traditional Chinese medicine is gradually replaced by Western medicine, this is an indisputable fact, the former Langzhong is not easy to mix now, everyone is more willing to go to the hospital, with Western medicine treatment, the main reason is that the speed is fast, I don't want to take a few packets of Chinese medicine back to slowly boil water to drink. In today's fast-paced life, how can there be such extra time?

Therefore, small TCM clinics in various places cannot be opened, and many TCM doctors can hardly support their families with that meager income. It is very rare to be able to rent such a large store in the bustling area of Shanghai to open a TCM clinic, and I have never seen it in Quanzhou City or Xiamen anyway.

It seems that this Baiwei Chinese medicine shop does have confidence, and I don't know who opened it.

I walked into the hall of Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop, and on the inside was a large cabinet more than three meters high, a whole row of it, about 30 meters long, and the whole large cabinet was divided into countless small drawers, pasted with the names of various medicinal materials that I had never heard of, and I had to use a ladder to get the medicinal materials.

It's called Baiwei, and there are definitely a hundred kinds of medicinal materials here, and there must be the medicinal materials I want here.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy some medicinal herbs." I handed the list over.

The shopkeeper glanced at the list, and didn't say no, but just asked, "How much do you need for each flavor of medicinal herbs?" "The real Chinese medicine shop is really confident, and it will never say no.

"Five pounds!" I replied.

"Five pounds?" The shopkeeper was obviously stunned for a moment, because others generally buy a few "money", at most a few taels, I opened my mouth to five catties, it is indeed too much, this is not to buy vegetables, but to buy medicine, but this is not to blame me, Zhong Lingxiu said to buy so much.

"What do you want so much to do?" The shopkeeper continued.

"I opened a Chinese medicine hall, I need to use some, if the shopkeeper can provide a little discount, all the medicinal materials in our Chinese medicine hall will be purchased from Baiwei in the future." I laughed.

I originally thought that the shopkeeper would not refuse such a business, but he just asked me if the TCM medical center was registered? I ask what to register? Where can I register? He gave me a suspicious look, and I was stunned.

He didn't explain, but he returned the list to me and said coldly, "We don't have these medicinal materials!" ”

"Just now you asked how much you need, which means that there is, why is there no now?" I'm a little angry.

"No is no, please leave." The shopkeeper's tone was indifferent.

I reluctantly walked out of the Baiwei Chinese medicine shop, the shopkeeper's words were inconsistent, obviously there was, but he refused to sell it to me, why is this happening? I can't figure it out, and he also said that he wants to register, what does this need to register? I could only call Tang Yong and ask him if he knew the situation inside, and he said he didn't know, he didn't know about it.

I could only go back temporarily and tell Zhong Lingxiu about this, she said that she didn't know what the reason was, so I could only call Song Fengyi and ask her to help me ask what the situation was here, whether I had offended anyone by opening a Chinese medicine center.

After two hours, she said that she had inquired, and it seemed that if she opened a TCM clinic or a TCM clinic in Shanghai, she had to register with the TCM Association, and if she didn't register, they wouldn't provide any medicinal materials.

Want to register with the Chinese Medicine Association? Is the TCM Association a government department? I only knew that I had to register with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the Food and Drug Administration, but I had never heard of registering with a Chinese medicine association that was established spontaneously by the people.

"I don't believe that without them, I wouldn't be able to buy medicinal herbs in Shanghai." I said coldly.

"Don't get along with the Chinese Medicine Association, their power is greater than you think, the entire Chinese Medicine Association has members all over the country, it can be said that it monopolizes most of the business channels of Chinese herbal medicines, ordinary medicinal materials may be you can go to the pharmacy to buy, but many herbal pharmacies do not, they are under the control of the Chinese Medicine Association." Song Fengyi reminded, "I think it's better for you to register." ”

"Sister Yi came forward to buy it in person, will they give face?"

"I don't know about this, but you send me the list, and I'll give it a try."

"Good!" I hung up the phone, took a picture of the list with my mobile phone, and sent it to Song Fengyi.

On the morning of the next day, Song Fengyi called back, and she said that Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop still refused to sell it to her, if it was a small amount, it was okay, but with such a large amount, the other party refused her euphemistically under the pretext that there was not so much inventory.

In other words, Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop will not even give the Song family face, it is enough to hold it!

"Do you know where the Chinese Medicine Association in Shanghai is?" I continued.

"On the upper floor of Baiwei Chinese medicine shop, the first floor is the pharmacy, the second and third floors are the clinic, the fourth and fifth floors are the Shanghai branch of the Chinese Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the largest Chinese medicine family in Shanghai is the Mei family, the Baiwei Chinese medicine shop they occupy the largest shares, this Mei family is not easy to mess with, it has developed in Shanghai for more than 300 years, the major families owe them favors, don't offend them as much as possible." Song Fengyi explained.

"Thank you, Sister Yi." I replied gratefully, she was really thoughtful and helped me inquire clearly, so that I could know where the other party came from and make a plan.

Hanging up the phone, Zhong Lingxiu said that she would accompany me to visit the Chinese Medicine Association in the afternoon, I thought about it, and now it seems that I can only visit the other party for the time being, and it doesn't hurt to register.

Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop doesn't even give the Song family face, it is definitely confident, and it is better not to go to it now.

In the afternoon, Zhong Lingxiu and I left the school, went to the Baiwei Chinese medicine shop again, took the elevator straight to the fourth floor, walked out of the elevator, and when we turned the corner, a man came over in a hurry, if I hadn't dodged quickly, I would have crashed.

The man glanced at us, walked a few steps, and stopped, "Is that you?" ”

I also feel that this guy is quite familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere.

"What are you doing here? You're not welcome here. The man continued.

"Can you represent the entire Baiwei Chinese Medicine Shop?" I asked rhetorically.

"You're right, I can really represent it, because my family is the biggest shareholder here." The man sneered.

Then he is a member of the Mei family? Or a rich second generation?
