Chapter 1297: The Predicament Seen by Doctor Ji
"Hey!" Doctor Ji let out a long sigh and said, "It's useless to talk to you about this, forget it."
At this moment, Li Yao clearly saw the kind old man in front of him, with tears in his eyes.
For as long as Li Yao can remember, every time he sees Dr. Ji, the other party is full of smiles.
Even when diagnosing the patient, Dr. Ji frowned at most, never as lost and helpless as he was at that moment just now.
Li Yao felt a sour nose and blurted out, "Doctor Ji, don't say that, I knew several big bosses when I was at work, and they were all very interested in Chinese medicine.
As long as you talk about the difficulties, you may be able to find a way to revitalize TCM. That's what you'd like to see, right?"
These words made a glimmer of light flash in Dr. Ji's eyes, but soon this glimmer of light also disappeared.
"Forget it, I understand your kindness, but it is impossible to revitalize Chinese medicine, so don't waste time." After Dr. Ji finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.
"How do you know if you don't tell me, Li Yao is very powerful?"
"That's right, Dr. Ji, just talk about it, anyway, you don't need to diagnose other patients today, just complain!"
Chuan Zhien and Feng Youzhen also followed suit.
Maybe it was the words of the two girls that moved Dr. Ji, or maybe the other party had something to say in his heart for too long, and he also wanted to talk to someone.
"Well, it's rare that you three young people have a relationship with me, so it's okay to talk to you."
"When I used to study medicine, I thought that as long as I could learn medical skills well and save more patients, you would pass on your medical skills by the way, even if I couldn't see the day when Chinese medicine was revitalized, I firmly believed that future generations would see it."
"But now, after practicing medicine for most of my life, I realize that my original idea was too naïve, and Chinese medicine cannot be revitalized at all."
Doctor Ji said so much in one breath, stopped and took a sip of tea.
Li Yao couldn't help but ask, "You haven't said why this is the result?"
"Because, Chinese medicine can't make money." Doctor Ji said lightly.
Hiss!
Li Yao and the two girls were stunned, and some didn't understand too much.
Even if Dr. Ji is kind-hearted and refuses to charge more money from the villagers, this does not mean that Chinese medicine practitioners will not make money by treating people.
Can't we raise the fees?
Collect a pulse that is a few hundred years older than you?
Doctor Ji seemed to see the confusion of Li Yao and the others, and continued, "Do you not believe my words? Think you can make money for medical students as long as the fees are higher?"
"yes, what's the problem?" Li Yao asked.
"Let me ask you one more question, who is bigger in the Chinese medicine hall or the hospital you usually see?" Dr. Ji asked.
"Of course, the hospital is bigger." Chuan Ji-eun blurted out.
"This girl is right, have you ever wondered why an ordinary hospital should be built so big?" Dr. Ji asked again.
"To admit more patients, of course." Feng Youzhen said.
Dr. Ji smiled and didn't speak.
There was a lot of helplessness in his smile.
Maybe a little bit of stubbornness.
Li Yao asked, "Is it because there are so many departments in Western medicine?" How much equipment do you need?"
"You're half right, although I studied Chinese medicine, I also know a little bit about Western medicine. It is very simple to train Western medicine, as long as you can understand the data of the examination, you will know how to prescribe medicine.
As for whether the prescribed medicine has any effect, it is difficult to say.
However, to train a Chinese medicine practitioner, you must learn slowly from taking the pulse, understanding the medicinal properties, knowing the meridians of the human body, etc., and you may not be able to remember the medicinal properties of Chinese medicine every ten years or eight years.
Which one would you like to learn?"
Dr. Ji's words were very direct and insightful.
Nowadays, it is a fast-moving world, and people's hearts are also prone to impetuousness.
No matter what skill you learn, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely to make a living.
It's impossible for anyone to spend a lot of time learning a subject and not knowing if they can make money
Money skills.
Li Yao and the two girls were silent, and they silently asked themselves in their hearts, if it were me, how would they choose?
If you are not bad for money, you may choose traditional Chinese medicine, but the question is how many people like Li Yao can be in reality who are not bad for money?
Ordinary people have to support their families after birth.
"If someone is willing to contribute money to set up a special university of Chinese medicine, student subsidies should be able to motivate more people to participate, right?" Li Yao asked.
In his opinion, as long as it is a problem that can be solved with money, it is not a problem.
He also has a little affection and is willing to do something meaningful.
"How can there be such a stupid boss in the world?" Dr. Ji asked rhetorically.
Karma!
Li Yao was a little embarrassed, he wanted to reply that he was actually the stupid boss in the other party's mouth.
"Doctor Ji, don't talk too hard first, the bosses I know are some very affectionate, do you think the method I just made is feasible?
If you can, let them hire you to give lectures to the students when the time comes." Li Yao said with some excitement.
"Hehe......" Dr. Ji touched his beard and laughed heartily.
"You baby, you're really going to make people happy. Even if you can find such a boss, the other party is willing to come out and do it.
However, there are problems with Chinese medicine itself, and it is not the doctor's fault that the disease that can be cured in front of us is not cured by the same prescription, but the Chinese medicine itself." Doctor Ji said with some sadness.
"No wonder you often go up the mountain to collect medicine by yourself, and you don't feel safe to buy Chinese medicine?" Li Yao asked.
"That's right, most of the Chinese medicine on the market is grown by farmers, and if you think about it, in order to make more money, growers must want to have a high yield of Chinese medicine.
If the production goes up, the medicinal properties will definitely be reduced." Dr. Ji said.
I have to say that this old gentleman has studied the current situation of Chinese medicine very deeply.
It is often possible to get to the essence of the problem in one sentence.
Li Yao said: "This is easy to do, we can set up our own Chinese medicine planting base and strictly control the quality."
"Hehe......" Dr. Ji laughed a few more times, "You baby can say everything so easily, do you know how difficult it is?"
