Jiang Ci picked up the phone and it was Chu Yan calling.
"Master Jiang, the big fish has taken the bait, when do we take action?"
Jiang Ci tapped the table with his fingertips and said calmly: "No rush, wait a moment, I will come find you later."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news." After Chu Yan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Here, Jiang Ci went out after eating breakfast. Although he didn't know when the boss would come back yet, he still had to prepare all the things that should be prepared.
…………
Huaxi Street.
The early morning sun shines on the earth, making people feel warm all over. The streets are bustling with people coming and going.
Jiang Ci turned into a relatively quiet street and came to the door of a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. The smell of traditional Chinese medicine hit his nostrils. When he looked up, he saw the three characters "Miaorentang" printed on the door plaque.
There is a couplet posted on both sides of the door. This couplet seems to have been there for a long time. The color of the red paper is much lighter, even a little yellow, but you can vaguely see what is written on it:
"I hope that people in this world will be free from illness, so why bother with the medicine on the shelf?"
Looking at this couplet, Jiang Ci narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yes, in the past, pharmacies only served to save lives and heal the wounded. They would rather the medicines on the shelves were unsold and gathered dust than to see anyone getting sick. But now many unscrupulous pharmacies have gradually gone against their original intentions. They only care about their own interests. , often use advertising to promote their own medicines, and have maximized their profits!
Nowadays, there are not many good doctors who don’t care about fame, fortune and money, but have medical ethics and only want to save the common people.
"Hello, do you want to get some medicine?"
A pleasant voice came from the medical clinic. Jiang Ci followed the sound and saw a sunny and handsome young man slowly walking out of the medical clinic.
"I see you have been standing here for a long time. Do you want to get medicine?"
Jiang Ci withdrew his gaze and nodded.
"Then come in with me." The young man smiled and led her into the hospital.
Jiang Ci raised his feet and followed behind him. The young man shouted into the room: "Grandpa, someone is here to get the medicine."
After saying that, he pushed a chair in front of Jiang Ci, "You sit down for a while, my grandpa will be here later."
"Okay." Jiang Ci nodded and sat on the chair, pointed to the couplet at the door and said, "Your grandfather must have written this couplet himself!"
A flash of surprise flashed in the young man's eyes, and he immediately said: "Yes, my grandfather wrote this couplet himself."
Jiang Ci thoughtfully asked, "Then haven't you ever considered changing to a new couplet?"
Hearing this, the young man shook his head: "No, my grandfather once said that this couplet has special meaning to him, so it has not been changed for so many years.
"Xiao Zhe, which guest wants to get medicine?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure slowly walked out of the back room. The young man hurriedly stepped forward to help him and said, "Grandpa, this lady is here to get the medicine."
A white-haired old Chinese doctor walked slowly with the support of the young man. The old Chinese doctor asked her amiably with a kind face.
"Little girl, what medicine do you want to take?"
"It's all written here." Jiang Ci stood up and handed him a list.
The old Chinese medicine doctor took a look at the list and said with some surprise: "Little girl, I see that the medicinal materials on your list are all medicinal materials that are used to treat leg diseases!"
The names of the medicinal materials written on the list are: safflower, chuanxiong, angelica, millipedia, red peony root, etc...
"Little girl, you are suffering from leg disease at such a young age?" The old Chinese doctor looked at Jiang Ci and said with some regret.
"No, you misunderstood." In order not to worry the old Chinese doctor, Jiang Ci said with mixed truth and falsehood: "I'm fine. These medicinal materials are not for me. They are bought for my boss. His leg has been injured before."
"That's good!" The old Chinese doctor smiled kindly and handed the list in his hand to the young man, "Xiao Zhe, go to the pharmacy and grab these medicinal herbs."
"Okay, I understand, grandpa." The young man took the list and walked towards the pharmacy.
After the young man left, the old Chinese medicine doctor was afraid that she wouldn't understand, so he explained to her: "The medicinal materials outside have been stored for a long time. I asked my grandson to go to the pharmacy to grab those sealed medicinal materials for you."
Jiang Ci knew that the old Chinese doctor had good intentions, so he smiled and thanked him: "Thank you then!"
The old Chinese medicine doctor smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, this is what we should do!"
Jiang Ci sighed: "But nowadays there are very few people who think about others like you."
This is true. Generally, only people who are not convinced by money and interests will be like this. Otherwise, if it were someone else, they would be happy for you to buy these old medicinal materials.
In this way, they can not only make money, but also get rid of expired old goods.
After all, they don't care whether there will be any adverse reactions if you take these old medicinal materials back and eat them. After all, they can make a fortune.
"Hey, yes!" The old Chinese medicine doctor sighed and said, "Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people who truly care about practicing medicine to save the world."
Think about how brilliant Chinese medicine was in the past, but now it is gradually forgotten by people due to the rise of Western medicine, and it is slowly declining!
Although Chinese and Western medicine each have their own characteristics, Chinese medicine is our own cultural heritage after all. Even if Western medicine prevails, we should pass on Chinese medicine.
In their day, medical practitioners wanted everyone to be healthy more than making profits.
But now, they will use various advertisements, discounts and point redemption items to attract people to buy medicines in order to make profits from them.
Because of this, many people are not sick at all, but they still choose to buy medicines from pharmacies.
When he was young, the old Chinese medicine doctor was determined to open a Chinese medicine clinic of his own, just to help the world and cure diseases and save people.
After so many years, he still has not forgotten his original intention. He has truly opened a medical clinic not for fame and fortune, but only to help the world, cure diseases and save people!
It's a pity that there are too many people who are blinded by money and interests. All he can do is stick to his true heart...
Jiang Ci smiled faintly: "You have done a good enough job. I think your wife will be very happy to see it in the spirit of heaven!"
The old Chinese medicine doctor looked at her in surprise. After a long time, he looked up to the sky and said, "Old lady, I did it, and your spirit in heaven can rest in peace..."
After speaking, the old Chinese medicine doctor turned to look at Jiang Ci: "Little girl, how do you know?"
It's no wonder that the old Chinese medicine doctor was curious. After all, only he knew what happened back then, and he didn't tell anyone about it.
That incident had a deep impact on him, and it was precisely because of that incident that he chose to do this business. At the same time, he swore that he would never do anything unethical for the sake of money and fame!
