During the hot summer season in Northeast China, Chang Yinong led his team to a relatively remote town at the junction of China and Northern Russia.
The Chinese Medicine Department has been looking for craftsmen for special processing of medicinal materials for some time. Although the results are not satisfactory, the progress is pretty good.
Some craftsmen with special herbal medicines have signed contracts with Chinese Medicine. This allows some prescriptions that require specially prepared medicinal materials to be used much more loosely.
Although many commonly prepared traditional Chinese medicines are basically sufficient for the treatment of diseases in terms of medicinal properties, for some special medical conditions, you won’t be able to get even one cent off the effectiveness of the medicines.
Therefore, there is still a huge demand in Chinese medicine for Chinese herbal medicines with excellent medicinal effects prepared by special means.
"Is this your hometown?" Looking at the green virgin forest in the mountains in front of him, Chang Yinong's smile grew wider, "What a natural treasure house.
In fact, many mountain runners in the past were veterans of traditional Chinese medicine. Their craftsmanship puts even some Chinese medicine practitioners to shame. It's a pity that I rarely see it now. "
"There are very few. When I was a child, there were a few mountain runners in the village. When I grew up, almost all of them went to work in the city." Sun Mingyang also shook his head with some emotion.
This time, Chang Yinong, the president of Hua Medical University, only brought his team to such a remote place because of his recommendation.
There was a mountain runner in his village who used to be a barefoot doctor. Later, due to the strict medical standards and the misbehavior of a patient he was treating, his reputation was ruined through rumors, and he had no choice but to go out to work. Haven't seen him in many years.
Last year, he came back during the Spring Festival and saw each other again. The other party was injured in an accident on the construction site and could no longer do manual labor. He could only return to his hometown to earn a living by making some bamboo weaving and other means.
So I picked up the art of preparing traditional Chinese medicine again, even though my health prevented me from going to the mountains to collect herbs. But it has to be said that economic development attracting young people to cities also has other benefits.
No one needs to rely on the mountains anymore. Of course, there are still many people picking some rare and economically valuable herbs in the mountains. But those traditional Chinese medicines that are not of high economic value and require special processing methods are basically no longer harvested.
So the old man wandered around the mountains near the village, collected some, processed it, sold it to Chinese medicine stores, and bought some snacks and meat for his grandson.
In addition, traditional Chinese medicine has gradually gained popularity in China in recent years, and his life has become much easier.
So when the Chinese medicine side started looking for craftsmen with special techniques for preparing traditional Chinese medicine, the first thing he thought of was this old man from his own village.
So I immediately recommended it to the school, but because the remuneration offered by Chinese Medicine was very high, all kinds of information came flooding in. The department managing this project at Huayi Traditional Chinese Medicine is extremely busy.
So Sun Mingyang changed his mind and asked for leave and went back to the village. He bought some prepared Chinese medicine from this uncle and returned to the school to show it to the school leaders.
This sight immediately confirmed that this was indeed a genuine craftsman, and the Chinese medicine company was about to send someone over to contact him. It just so happened that Chang Yinong was in the northeastern part of the Chinese medicine base due to the time difference. After hearing the news, he took this trip.
"So sometimes whether you can make money by learning a craft and whether you can live a better life with it will really affect the inheritance." Chang Yinong shook his head with emotion.
As the president of Hua Medical University, he has a particularly profound feeling, that is, the students of Hua Medical University in the early years were basically children from poor families. Most of these children came from poor mountains and the family economic conditions were extremely poor. Difference.
Because the tuition at Hua Medical University is very low, and even scholarships seem to be easy to get, I applied to Hua Medical University.
In those years, many children who were trained from the High School Affiliated to Hua Medical University chose other universities after the college entrance examination, or transferred to Western medicine. Chang Yinong, who was seeing him at the time, was really heartbroken and wanted to persuade him to continue studying traditional Chinese medicine.
As a result, the other parent said: "After graduating from Western medicine, it will cost tens of thousands a month. How much money can I make from studying Chinese medicine?" He was instantly speechless.
Some people are willing to make selfless sacrifices for the inheritance and the treasures of China, but most people have to live.
Therefore, within the legal framework, whether you can make money, or whether you can find a job after graduation, and how much money you can earn from the job you find, have become the most common and most direct measurement criteria for many university subjects.
In recent years, the number of students at Hua Medical University has increased. Even though Hua Medical University has raised the admission score for three consecutive years, the number of applicants is still increasing sharply every year.
Even the Affiliated High School has become popular. The reason is that if you attend the Affiliated High School of Hua Medical University, you can better enter Hua Medical University. Unlike other provinces, where the score line is stuck and a single point is missing, it won't work.
The fundamental reason for such changes is that traditional Chinese medicine has begun to rise. Traditional Chinese medicine doctors who are affordable and effective are becoming more and more popular in hospitals.
Learning this craft can help you make a living, and it can also make your life better. Naturally, your popularity will rise a lot.
When the car reaches the entrance of the village, you can only get off the car and walk. The construction of roads to connect every village is still in the plan, although there are pilot areas. Obviously not in such a remote mountain village.
Some people say that remote mountain villages need more road construction. Wealthy places have endless roads to build. Why not build roads in mountain villages first? This is unfair.
In fact, in many cases it doesn't matter whether this is fair or not. The actual reason is that it is more convenient and easier to build roads in wealthy places.
Because there are not only a lot of wealthy places, but also a few good county roads, rural roads and so on.
Based on these county roads and township roads, it will spread to the surrounding areas. Just build a road from the village to the county road or township road.
In remote mountain villages like the one in front of us, county and rural roads are sometimes full of potholes. If you want to build a road for a village like this, you won't know which main road will connect you even if it is built.
If you want to build a road like this in a village, you first have to rebuild the county or township road here so that there are connecting points for smooth traffic.
The amount of funds needed to build rural roads and county roads is not even a little bit, and it needs approval from the province. In this way, it is naturally easier to build the roads first, and link the villages with roads that have been built farther away. Only in this way can the road construction be continued to spread.
Otherwise, what’s the point of building a road if you still can’t get out after the road is built?
"Grandpa, Grandpa, Uncle Mingyang drove several people back to the village in a big car and said he wanted to find you." A six or seven-year-old kid hurriedly ran into a shop full of important wooden frames. Fence yard.
In the yard, an old farmer with a wrinkled face and an obviously abnormally bent right leg was holding a stone medicine pestle with a wooden handle in his hand to process the dried Chinese medicine in front of him.
