Chapter Ninety-Eight: Compassion for the Rich and Helping the Poor (Part 1 of the Second Watch)
"Cold feet are cold in the kidneys. There are external and endogenous cold. For example, if you are hurt by a loved one and your heart is cold, the cold heart will give rise to coldness. Didn't I verify it at Sanyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine last time? Sadness and hopelessness will cause a chill in the body, and it can be reflected in the pulse. ”
"Sanyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine? What verification? Dean Wu was curious.
Lao Ma roughly talked about how Yan Zixiu saved people at the Canton Fair and how Sanyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine conducted on-site assessments. Although he had mentioned it to Dean Wu before, this time he said it in more detail.
He said: "There were three exams in total. The first of these is the foundation of traditional Chinese medicine. Professor Mei from the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine asked Dr. Yan to demonstrate the reality of yin and yang. ”
"Yin and Yang are virtual and real? How? "Dean Wu is an expert and knows how difficult it is.
"If you don't say that Xiao Yan is powerful. He designed four experiments on mind-body relationships. Four pulse checkers and four volunteers were invited. Xiao Yan first wrote down the results of the pulse, then asked the first volunteer to recall those disappointed people and things, and finally asked the pulse master to take the pulse of the volunteer. As a result, the pulse image that came out was exactly the same as what Xiao Yan had written in advance, which was cold on palpation, slow pulse, and yang deficiency. ”
"Write the results first? Isn't this a prophet? This experiment is too clever. Dean Wu clapped his hands and exclaimed, "What about the three other experiments?" Please elaborate. ”
Lao Ma took out his storytelling skills and tirelessly introduced: "The second group is to think of something particularly important and anxious to achieve in a hurry that I feel is particularly good. Pulse verification: palpation of fever, pulse number disease, yang and solid appearance.
"The third group is thinking about something that consumes a lot of time and energy and has no effect, and I don't want to do it but have to do it. Pulse verification: palpation of warmth, pulse weakness, yin deficiency.
"The fourth group is thinking about something that is so sad and desperate that you absolutely don't want to associate with the other person again. Palpation is cold, the pulse is tight, and the appearance is yin and solid. ”
Dean Wu applauded again and again: "Wonderful, wonderful." Director Ma, Xiao Yan, I think this is great. It would be better if we could popularize the doctors in our TCM hospital. ”
Lao Ma looked at Yan Zixiu and asked for his opinion.
Yan Zixiu said: "If everyone is willing to learn, of course I am willing to share." But I think you can take it step by step, choose some open-minded ones first, and then slowly lead others. ”
Dean Wu understood what Yan Zixiu meant: "You're right, not everyone is willing to keep pace with the times, and there are people who are disabled and deficient all the time." Take your time, indeed. It's too late this week, let's go next week. Next week, you can consider asking Xiao Yan to sit in the morning and give a lecture in the afternoon. When the time comes, I will inform in advance, and I will take the lead in listening. ”
It seems that Dean Wu is still a person with feelings.
Yan Zixiu thought for a while, although the afternoon lectures had some impact on the preparation for the retreat, but compared to allowing more TCM practitioners to understand the mind-body interaction and benefit more patients, those effects were nothing. So he nodded in agreement.
Lao Ma is a little conflicted, if he is not on the scene to listen to the class, there is a little regret; Something is not appropriate if you are here all day.
He said, "Dean Wu, I suggest that the scene should be recorded. Because this course is precious, I hope to listen to it afterwards. ”
Xiao Wu said: "I have gained a lot from following Dr. Yan for a morning today. I'd also like to hear the recording. ”
Dean Wu said: "As long as Xiao Yan agrees, I will arrange the recording." After speaking, he looked at Yan Zixiu.
Of course, Yan Zixiu has no opinion: "I agree." I believe in a truth: the more I give, the more God gives me. ”
Dean Wu gave him a thumbs up.
After eating a few bites of food, Yan Zixiu changed the topic: "Dean Wu, do you have any difficulties in our traditional Chinese medicine hospital?" ”
"Ugh." These words can arouse Dean Wu's sorrow, as a family member, he has to worry about seven things when he opens the door - firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, "Xiao Yan, how do you say this." The main thing is that the profits are low. Although as the old saying goes, it is better to have medicine on the shelf, as long as there are no sick people in the world. But ideals are inseparable from reality, and everyone still has to eat. Traditional Chinese medicine hospitals rarely use instruments to check and do not have major surgeries and high-profit drugs. As for the common people, they feel in their hearts that it shouldn't be very expensive for you to take the pulse and take some herbs. The annual gross income of our hospital is several million, and the net profit is actually very small, which is very tight. To be honest, because of this, many people's mentality is not very stable. ”
Lao Ma said: "If the disease can really be cured, the common people will not necessarily be afraid of spending money." ”
Yan Zixiu pondered for a while: "Dean Wu and Director Ma have a point. Whether it's medicine or medicine, it has to be effective. Effectiveness is the last word. As for profits, Dean Wu doesn't blame me for speaking straight. I think our Chinese medicine is a bit like holding a golden rice bowl and asking for food. ”
Dean Wu was slightly stunned: "Xiao Yan, how can you say this?" ”
"Dean Wu, Director Ma, Xiao Wu and I are now in the high-end agricultural products office. The profits of all kinds of agricultural products that we are cultivating now are very high. Our model is to let the less wealthy villagers grow and let the wealthy people buy and eat. ”
Dean Wu is very smart: "You mean that we can use the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to make high-end Chinese patent medicines and solve the problem of survival and development?" ”
"That's right, you can't raise the Tao without wealth."
Dean Wu hesitated: "But the old Mr. Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, said: You must not use him to be rich and rich, and punish him with precious medicine, so that he is difficult to find, show off his function, and forgive him for not being loyal and forgiving." ”
Yan Zixiu said: "If you are blackmailed, raising your own value is certainly not the way of loyalty and forgiveness. On the one hand, the so-called high-end Chinese patent medicine is not ridiculously high. The price is completely affordable for the wealthy class. On the other hand, most of these profits can be transferred to the training of TCM doctors and the funding of poor patients. Isn't this a win-win situation for all parties? In the middle, just set up a transparent fund and transfer half of the profits to the fund. ”
The old horse nodded and said, "This is feasible." Xiao Yan was at the Canton Fair, and when he met the Hong Kong boss for help, he did not have the slightest idea of charging a high fee before diagnosis and treatment. It is the people themselves who want to thank him and give him wealth. ”
Dean Wu thinks about it, where is Yan Zixiu, who can take out millions of students to help the poor, who is greedy for money?
He was moved by the idea of a win-win situation: "We can select some effective and precious prescriptions and make them into Chinese patent medicines. For example, the Kampo of the Oriental island country has such a precedent. Their products sell well all over the world. To tell you the truth, we are also envious in our hearts. ”
"I think I can report this matter to Commissioner Wu. In the future, if you open a Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factory, it will also provide a lot of employment opportunities. This youth employment problem is a headache for Commissioner Wu. "Lao Ma thinks more broadly.
Dean Wu imagined the future, and his heart swelled with excitement that he hadn't seen for a long time: "Thank you, Xiao Yan." You've helped us solve a big problem. Come, I'll replace wine with tea, and I'll toast you. ”
……
Back at the base, Yan Zixiu began to prepare for the second retreat.
A few days ago, he found Wang Jingjing, a culture teacher, and borrowed a middle school geography textbook to review it again. Before returning to the base from the Chinese medicine hospital, he went to Xinhua Bookstore to buy a few books related to world geography and a world map, and prepared to make a temporary assault to familiarize himself.
There is a lot of space inside the Qiankun ring, and you can put the book directly inside and consult it at any time.
Xiao Wu and Wang Jingjing were both a little puzzled in their hearts, they didn't know why he needed information on world geography for his retreat, could it be that Section Chief Yan's retreat was actually sleepwalking around the world?
