Chapter 303: Decorating the new home and adding ingredients to the medicine
Dean Lu was overjoyed when he received the prescription.
In his heart, the importance of this prescription is higher than the "Palace Emperor Pills" that are bringing a steady stream of foreign exchange income to the country.
After all, the "Palace Emperor Pills" cannot cure diseases, they only serve to enhance sexual pleasure, although he occasionally takes them twice to feel the youthful vitality.
But if this prescription really has so many benefits, it would benefit the country and the people.
Currently, the mainstream analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs in the country are mainly based on Analgin. The patient may not know this, but as a doctor with superb medical skills, he knows how serious the side effects are.
If there is really no other solution, he really hopes that the country can ban the production and sale of these drugs in the country.
Now, once there is a substitute drug with less side effects, some of his ideas can be implemented sooner.
Moreover, this kind of medicine is definitely needed abroad and can also be exported to earn a lot of foreign exchange.
So he was already impatient to ask the pharmaceutical factory to produce a batch and then conduct clinical trials.
Seeing his excited look, Wang Mengde had some different thoughts in his mind.
There are mostly no problems in this area in the country. There is no capital interfering or obstructing. Moreover, in this era, the country will support anything that is beneficial to the people.
But the situation abroad is different. He had heard in his previous life that those multinational medical groups could do anything outrageous for the sake of profit.
As long as they can make money, they don't care about the lives of ordinary people. They may even deliberately create some crises, such as viruses, just to sell more drugs.
Of course, Wang Mengde couldn’t say this for the time being. He could only keep it in his heart and wait to see how the specific communication went.
some time thereafter.
In addition to managing the internal medicine department and seeing patients at Guang'anmen Hospital, Wang Mengde also had another job, which was to go with Pu Lao to sort out prescriptions from time to time.
He can only go two or three half days a week, but his efficiency is the highest, far exceeding that of others.
Although it is hard and brain-consuming, the rewards are great.
Every time he came across some interesting prescriptions, it broadened his thinking and even gave him great inspiration.
Gradually, prescriptions were born from his pen. These were a combination of his own medical knowledge and the wisdom of countless people.
soon.
It was the hot month of July.
This morning, after finishing her meal and washing up, Ran Xiaomei said to her three sons:
"Meng De, you take me with you on your bike, and Yuan Chao and Wei Guo, you two ride one bike, and we'll go to the department store to buy some furniture and daily necessities for our new home.
I will be living there in a month or so, and there is nothing there now.”
When Wang Mengde's unit was building a house, all employees and leaders agreed unanimously and also did some simple decoration.
Anyway, there is still a lot of money in the company's account. It would just gather dust if it were kept there, so it is better to give it to everyone as a welfare benefit.
After drawing lots and choosing a house, some young people couldn't wait to move in.
Of course, moving was much simpler for them than in later generations. Basically, they didn't have much furniture, just a bed, a table, a few benches, and daily necessities.
Some families don't even have a bed, so they just find a few bricks to put as a cushion, and then put a door panel on top to make a simple bed.
Wang Mengde's family had saved a lot of industrial coupons, so they had no shortage of money.
Therefore, they don't have to be as frugal as other families.
This time, Ran Xiaomei has already discussed with her daughter-in-law and is preparing to make a big purchase.
The things in Nanluoguxiang are basically untouched, but everything new that can be bought in Guang'anmen is bought new.
"Mom, wait a minute. I told Shengwen and Shengwu two days ago and asked them to come over to help today. They should be here soon."
Seeing that they were about to leave, He Shengnan hurriedly spoke.
She had to stay at home with her children and couldn't go with us.
Thinking that there were a lot of furniture to buy for the family, and moving them up and down was hard work, she gave notice to her two younger brothers from her mother's family in advance.
"Okay, let them come and help move the things."
After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Ran Xiaomei said happily.
The Wang family helped the He family so much without expecting any reward, but she was still very happy that they could come and help on their own initiative.
After a few minutes, He Shengwen and his brother arrived on their bicycles.
Then the six of them rushed to Xidan together.
After so many years of development, there are department stores in Xidan. Although the area cannot be compared with that of Wangfujing, it is also among the top three shopping malls in Beijing.
The merchandise inside is quite complete and it is close to Guang'anmen, so it is quite convenient.
It was the weekend.
The shopping mall is bustling with customers and noisy.
There was no way. Supplies were not abundant in that era, and there were only a few fixed department stores where you could buy things, so everyone was crowded together.
"Mom, please wait here for a moment. I'll go find someone I know."
Wang Mengde stood outside, frowned and looked at the mess in the mall, then thought for a while and said in a low voice.
"Meng De, it's getting late. Let's finish shopping and go back early, otherwise it will be hot in a while."
Ran Xiaomei didn't feel uncomfortable. She was already accustomed to this kind of scene and spoke.
The weather in July is only cool in the morning. From 9:00 onwards, it becomes extremely hot.
Especially during the period from noon to afternoon, if you are outside, it can be fatal.
"Mom, don't worry, you guys take a break, I'll be there soon."
Wang Mengde said with a smile.
Having said this, he left in a hurry.
Five minutes later, just as Ran Xiaomei and the others were looking around, he came back.
There was also a middle-aged man coming with him.
"This is Director Wang, the head of Xidan Department Store."
Wang Mengde introduced.
He and Director Wang had not met before, but that did not prevent him from doing so. When he arrived at the director's office and introduced himself, he was warmly received by Director Wang.
Just when the mall leader was about to make tea, he declined and said that he was going to the mall to buy something.
Director Wang understood the meaning of the song and quickly said that if anyone needed anything, they could go directly to the warehouse and get it without having to squeeze with other customers.
What’s more, the items in the warehouse are not only complete but also up-to-date.
Of course, there is a reason why he is so enthusiastic.
Although he had never sought medical treatment from Wang Mengde, he knew from some of his relatives and friends how great this young man's medical skills were.
What's more, as a leader, he has developed the habit of reading newspapers every day, and the name Wang Mengde is very familiar to him.
So I don’t mind doing a favor.
Ran Xiaomei and He Shengwen followed Director Wang into the warehouse with confused faces. When they saw the dazzling array of goods piled up everywhere, their eyes widened.
After finally coming to her senses, she looked at her son with surprise.
"Mom, tell this comrade about the things our family needs to buy."
Wang Mengde said to Ran Xiaomei.
Next to him, a staff member called by Director Wang secretly glanced at Wang Mengde and said with a smile:
"Auntie, if you need anything, just tell me."
If customers saw her current attitude, they would definitely be very surprised.
At some point, his fierce and impatient expression changed to one of service with a smile, and with all eight teeth showing.
"Well, we bought a lot of things. I wrote them down on a piece of paper. Can you take a look?"
As Ran Xiaomei spoke, she took out a piece of paper covered with words from her pocket and handed it to the staff member.
Seeing the densely packed words, the girl was suddenly at a loss, and she looked at Director Wang for help.
If it was just a few items, they could just take them from the warehouse, but with so many items, a lot of tickets and coupons would be needed.
Director Wang also saw the paper. Naturally, he did not question whether the other party had so many tickets and coupons. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Director Wang, you are planning to decorate your new home and buy so many things.
Have you found a car yet? The department store's fleet of cars hasn't left yet, so I'll call a few and have them delivered to your home."
Wang Mengde saw that the girl did not move, and he immediately understood the problem. He also smiled and said:
"Director Wang, my unit has just allocated a house, and I plan to buy some furniture and daily necessities to move into it.
I'm sorry to trouble you with the fleet matters, but I must pay the freight and fuel fees, not a penny less.
By the way, these are tickets and industrial vouchers. Comrade, please calculate first to see if they are enough. If there is any shortage, I will make up for it.
Finally, please help me calculate how much money is needed, and I will give it to you first."
As he spoke, he pulled out a handful of various tickets and industrial coupons from his pocket and handed them to the girl.
After half an hour.
With the help of Wang Yuanchao and several others, the girl finally matched the goods she needed to buy with the tickets and industrial vouchers, and also calculated the amount of money needed.
The tickets and industrial vouchers were not bad, on the contrary, there were a few more.
After paying the money and getting the invoice, several trucks also stopped at the door of the warehouse.
With the help of the driver, Wang Mengde and his colleagues spent more than 20 minutes finally loading all the furniture and daily necessities into the car.
At this time, Ran Xiaomei also came over with a big bag of cream popsicles and Bei Bingyang:
"Comrades, you have worked hard. Come have a popsicle and drink a bottle of water to cool down."
It was almost noon before we moved all our belongings to our new home in Guang'anmen.
The community was already quite lively at this time. Many young people from research institutes and hospitals were in pairs, looking excited.
These people got married recently after buying a house, or although they were married before, they were separated for a long time and lived in the dormitory of their respective work unit.
Now that they have their own house, they are all grateful to Wang Mengde.
If it weren't for him, it would take who knows how long it would take for everyone to move into a new house.
What’s more, the house is so nice, with large space, separate bathroom and kitchen, and it doesn’t require crowdfunding.
noon.
After a few people found a convenient restaurant nearby and had a simple meal, they hurried back to their new home and started packing up.
Some furniture needs to be placed properly and daily necessities need to be classified.
It wasn't until around five in the afternoon that I was finally satisfied with the cleanup.
Ran Xiaomei wiped the sweat from her forehead. Although her back and waist ached, she was in a very good mood.
After going around the three bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and living room and finding no problems, he called a few people and prepared to go back.
Early the next morning.
As soon as Wang Mengde arrived at the gate of the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he met President Lu.
"Comrade Wang Mengde, let's go to the pavilion. I have something to tell you."
Park the bike, said Dean Lu.
The two men walked into the pavilion. Dean Lu stopped, turned around, looked at him, and said with a smile:
"I heard you moved yesterday?"
"Dean, I haven't moved yet. I just bought some furniture and daily necessities and put them there. I will come and live here in September."
“Well, by the way, I called you here mainly to tell you some bad news.
The prescription you gave me last time was produced by the pharmaceutical factory some time ago. After clinical trials, the effect is very good.
The country contacted those foreign partners and told them about the products and their effects.
Unfortunately, they were not interested in this drug, and the cooperation did not take place.”
Dean Lu said with some regret.
When he got the news, he was surprised for a while.
He didn't expect that foreign countries would look down on this drug and would rather continue to give patients drugs with serious side effects. This left him puzzled.
I don’t know what the problem is!
Wang Mengde, who was standing by, thought that this was indeed the case. This was within his expectations, so he asked, "President, did those foreign partners give any reasons for not wanting it?"
He wondered if there was any way to remedy the situation.
“Relevant staff also asked, and they said that although our products are good, they may not be able to compete with other drugs after being shipped to the West.
After repeated questioning, they finally gave the specific reason, which was that people in those countries liked special raw materials in some medicines.
If we can add some ingredients to this medicine, they will be willing to buy it and give it a try.”
Dean Lu said with a bad look on his face.
As Chinese people, we all deeply hate this special raw material. After all, the nation’s century-long suffering started from here.
Wang Mengde was also scratching his head.
Since the liberation, the country has implemented strict control over this kind of stuff. Anyone who touches it will die, not to mention deliberately adding it to medicines.
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he said in a low voice:
"Dean, when I was sorting out the secret recipes and proven recipes I collected during the recipe donation campaign, I found a recipe that was very similar to this one.
But that prescription should have been from decades ago, and it used special raw materials for the medicine. The efficacy was similar, but the side effects were a bit severe.
Since it is not used in China, why don’t you suggest to your superiors that we sell this prescription to them, and also sell some Chinese herbal medicines so that they can produce and sell them themselves.”
Since we can’t produce medicines to sell, let’s change our thinking and sell Chinese herbal medicines!
