Chapter 50 Concocted Medicinal Materials
In early autumn, the weather is getting cooler, and the graceful beauties on the street finally cover their hot bodies.
Qu Ruo's knowledge class is almost finished, and he is still a student, but the learning place has been transferred from the classroom to the Chinese medicine hospital.
Words such as hanging pot Jishi and Xinglin Chunnuan jumped into his mind, and he walked into the traditional Chinese medicine hospital with his roommate Jiang Heng, with a dream, hoping to become a master of Xinglin and save lives.
More than a dozen interns crowded in the outpatient building, the two of them rushed over non-stop after breakfast, but it was still a little late, and they could only stand on the periphery of the crowd, at the very edge.
"You...... , you, and you, all follow me to sit in the clinic and learn to make diagnostic records......".
The attending physician Sha Jun ordered more than ten people in a row, and when he talked about Qu Ruo and Jiang Heng, he frowned and said, "The licorice in the medicine cabinet is running out, you go and concoct some!"
After Dr. Sha finished speaking, he waved his hand impatiently, and wanted to leave with the other interns.
Want to go?
Qu Ruo from the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been here many times and is very familiar with the operation specifications, so he took a few steps forward and interrupted Sha Jun and said: "Teacher Sha, the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has always used concocted medicinal materials, although there are also licorice, but it is just used as another herb, and it has never been concocted, why do you want to set a precedent?"
Raw licorice and boiled licorice herbs have different effects and can be used in different prescriptions. Specialized herbal medicine service companies have a standardized process of processing traditional Chinese medicine, and the medicinal materials they provide can not only exert their efficacy, but also have the same specifications to facilitate batch operation, and doctors can use the medicinal materials directly without considering the impact of the processing method, which has always been the first choice of hospitals.
Doctor Sha Jun turned to look at Qu Ruo: "Why, don't be convinced, let me go to concoct medicinal materials is an opportunity for you to learn, don't cherish it, this is a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, you can't make the decision, if you want to learn from me, you must do what I say, understand?"
He stopped: "It's not just boiling licorice, see if there is any lack of other medicinal materials, go to the big warehouse to find it, take it out and concoct it, we are a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, we can't lack medicinal materials at any time, understand?"
Doctor Sha criticized and stepped forward, looking old-fashioned.
Qu Ruo and the two entered the operation room and found that there was not even licorice in the medicine cabinet, so they scolded angrily: "Hypocrite, you think I don't know anything, he is taking revenge on us!"
Sha Hao, the younger brother of Dr. Sha, is a lecturer in the medical school and a part-time pharmacist in Pengji Pharmaceutical.
How did I know that the magic medicine in my heart was actually different from the prescription offered, Pengji Pharmaceutical lost his wife and soldiers, spent a lot of money on the prescription, and finally failed.
Sha Hao, the initiator of the incident, had a hard time, his colleagues suspected him of ulterior motives, the boss suspected that he had a problem with his ability, and everyone did not have a good face for him.
As an elder brother, Sha Jun knows everything, and he will not retaliate against Qu Ruo when he has the opportunity.
"You wait here, I'll go to the big warehouse at the back and get some licorice!"
Qu Ruo said hello and went to the big warehouse in the backyard alone.
Speaking of the warehouse of the Chinese medicine hospital, there are some origins, the time goes back more than 100 years, and this is the Chinese medicine hall. The Ge family's "Jishitang" is famous. It was operated for several generations, and later returned to the country/have, and after the reform and opening up, it was assigned to the school, and it was the predecessor of the affiliated hospital.
The school grew and expanded, the Western Medical Department moved away, and a traditional Chinese medicine hospital was built on the basis of Jishitang, but the large warehouse was retained.
When I opened the door, the floor was covered with dust, and I was faced with a stack of discarded stretchers, alcohol lamps and scalpels everywhere on the floor.
"No one has been here for at least a few months!"
Qu Ruo cautiously dodged the "mechanism" on the ground and came to the middle row of medicine cabinets, and finally found some licorice in the second row, but it seemed that it had been abandoned for at least a few years, and I didn't know if it would have any effect after concoction.
"Whatever he is, at least he can make a difference!"
Qu Ruo found cinnabar and other medicinal materials that needed special preparation in the warehouse, and walked out of the warehouse satisfied.
When they came to the operation room, Jiang Heng was still impatient to wait, and the two of them first placed the licorice to be concocted in a frying container, stir-fried it with a simmer, added refining honey and stir-fried it until it was fragrant and yellowed, and took it out when it was not sticky to your hands, and let it cool.
The licorice was placed for later use, and Qu Ruo began to use the water fly method to concoct cinnabar.
Cinnabar is properly crushed, placed in a milk bowl or other containers, an appropriate amount of water is added, ground into a paste, and then a large amount of water is added, the coarse grains sink, the suspension is poured out, and the sinking coarse grains are re-grinded, and so on until the grinding is fine.
Finally, the impurities that cannot be suspended are discarded. The suspensions poured out back and forth are combined and allowed to stand, and after precipitation, the water on them is poured off, and the dry precipitate is ground into a very fine powder.
Cinnabar generally has to fly in water. Cinnabar is toxic, after flying water, the drug can be pure, very fine, easy to prepare and take, the main component of cinnabar is mercury sulfide (HgS), and it still contains trace impurities. The impurities are mainly free mercury and soluble mercury salts, the latter of which is extremely toxic and is the main toxic component in cinnabar.
In fact, the cinnabar taken out of the large warehouse is all concocted, and Qu Ruo did it all over again, just to experience the special process of "water flying method".
"You're ......."
Jiang Heng put his hand on the side, but he didn't think so, the current medicinal materials are all concocted, why bother to learn these useless crafts again.
At this time, Qu Ruo's attitude was serious, as if he was accepting another inheritance, as a traditional Chinese medicine, if he didn't even know how to concoct medicinal materials, how could he accurately distinguish the medicinal properties and save the wounded?
After almost four hours of hard work, all the medicinal materials were finally processed.
The two of them rushed to bring the successfully concocted medicinal materials to the outpatient department and were about to put them in the medicine cabinet, but they were stopped by Sha Jun: "No need, just now the people from the medicinal materials company came to distribute and make up for the lack of medicinal materials, and the medicinal materials you concocted don't need to be replenished, just put them in the big warehouse for the time being!"
"I've been busy for most of the day, you don't need a word?" Qu Ruo sneered a few times: "I knew this was the case, why let us be busy!"
I walked to the medicine cabinet and opened the cabinet where the licorice was located, and sure enough, I saw that it was filled with yellow and clear licorice, which was more uniform in color than the one I had concocted.
"Why do you say so much, of course there are good medicinal herbs and use them well, can you use your low-grade skills to make them?" Sha Jun pointed at Jiang Hengyan and said, "You and your classmates should go over and copy the medical records!"
"Yes, teacher!" Jiang Heng thought that Qu Ruo would be fine after concocting the medicinal herbs, so he left decisively and found the case recorded by his classmate Chen Jia to copy it.
Doctor Sha said to Qu Ruo again: "You put the medicinal materials in the warehouse, clean and tidy them up by the way, understand?"
"I'll go, let me tidy up the big warehouse, Mr. Sha, you're fine!"
The large warehouse covers an area of hundreds of square meters, and the medicinal materials of the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon abound, when did he clean it up alone?
Looking at his mobile phone and finding that it was already eleven o'clock, Qu Ruo put the medicinal herbs on the ground and said, "It's time to eat, let's do things in the afternoon!"
Qu Ruoxin walked out of the traditional Chinese medicine hospital and muttered loudly: "The traditional Chinese medicine hospital is not a doctor for you, what a cow, it's a big deal not to learn from you, your brother is a waste, he can't even distinguish between true and fake prescriptions, and so are you!"
Qu Ruo disdainfully, there are several chief physicians of the Chinese medicine hospital, why hang himself on a crooked neck tree in Shajun.
Do you want to put on a score, you want to clean me up?
There are no doors!
When the students heard Qu Ruo's "bold words", they agreed in their hearts but didn't dare to express it, in fact, Sha Jun was indeed the worst one among the same batch of graduates.
His classmates are either already chief physicians or have gone to other hospitals to hold high positions, but he is the only one who has stopped and has the same title as his younger brother, who is several years younger than him.
"You ......"
Sha Jun stomped his feet, looking at Qu Ruo's back viciously, thinking about how to clean him up.
