In the next few days, Xu Yin led everyone to repair and transform the living environment every morning. In the afternoon, she went to the city to have a consultation at her Xu's Pharmacy, where she also looked for a suitable doctor.
After finishing work in the evening, she went back with some materials and household items needed for the nunnery, and enriched her home in this world bit by bit.
In this way, running in both directions every day is a bit busy, but at least both ends benefit from it.
That afternoon, when Xu Yin just entered the shop, her only waiter, Feng Lu, the neighbor next door introduced by Da Mao, said that an old Chinese medicine doctor had been here in the morning and was willing to come to Xu's Pharmacy, but he had a condition. His grandson comes to work with him.
"Old Wu said that his grandson had studied abroad. After returning to China at the beginning of the year, he was hired by a pharmaceutical company to be a technical consultant. Only half a year later, he was driven insane by the director of the pharmaceutical factory. Old Wu only has such a grandson, a son and a daughter-in-law. , his wife is gone, and he doesn’t worry about his grandson, so he wants to take him to work with him.”
Feng Lu sighed when he said this:
"I thought he was so pitiful that I couldn't bear to agree to ask for him. Boss, just do what you want. I can understand it. After all, he is a young man in his early twenties, not a child of two or three years old. It still needs someone to keep an eye on it all day long. It’s okay if nothing happens, but if there is some commotion in the shop, wouldn’t it involve you, the boss?”
Xu Yin listened patiently to what he said and asked: "Mr. Wu said that why did the director of the pharmaceutical factory force him? And force him to go crazy?"
"I didn't ask for details, but he muttered a few words to himself. It seemed that the pharmaceutical company wanted to change its direction to produce Western medicines. Seeing that his grandson came back from studying abroad and knew some pharmacological knowledge of Western medicines, he forced him to produce something called amines within three months. Western medicine……"
"Sulfa?"
"Yes, yes! It's sulfonamide. Sir, do you know this drug? I heard from Lao Wu that this drug is currently imported, and the price is more expensive than gold. Rich people can't even buy it with money. I was curious about what this medicine looked like. As soon as the western pharmacy across the street opened this morning, I went to ask them. I didn't expect that they didn't have this medicine either. It seemed to be really scarce. No wonder domestic pharmaceutical companies are trying to find ways to produce this medicine. Taste medicine... But no matter how talented Old Wu's grandson is, he can't develop it in just three months. A young man who has made great achievements is driven crazy like this. It's a pity, what a pity!"
Xu Yin knew about sulfa. Although she studied traditional Chinese medicine during her medical studies, she took several courses related to Western medicine.
One of the courses was devoted to the origin and development of antibiotics, and sulfa was the most useful broad-spectrum antibacterial drug before the advent of penicillin (penicillin).
In war years, it was especially used to treat infections from gunshot wounds and knife wounds.
It was not until the advent of penicillin that sulfa was gradually replaced by penicillin with better efficacy, but it did not withdraw from the field of medicine. It is still used in veterinary clinical and animal husbandry industries.
Xu Yin originally planned to develop penicillin. Even though historically, it would take seven or eight years for this drug to be developed and officially put into use during World War II. But this is the world, right?
They were all written by people. Since her fate as cannon fodder can be reversed, why can't the general environment be rewritten?
Xu Yin asked Feng Lu: "What is the specific behavior of Mr. Wu's grandson? He himself is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but he has never thought of using acupuncture to treat his grandson?"
Feng Lu shook his head and expressed his ignorance: "I didn't ask about this."
"You invite their grandparents over."
Xu Yin wanted to see what was going on with Mr. Wu's grandson. It would be great if he could be cured. He should have majored in Western medicine while studying abroad, otherwise he would not have been hired as a consultant by a pharmaceutical company as soon as he came back.
The director of the pharmaceutical factory must have decided to switch to the production of Western medicine when he hired him, right? That’s why he was given the important task of developing sulfonamides three months after he entered the factory.
Feng Lu did as he was told and called Old Wu Zusun.
The ancestors of the Wu family were said to be from the Xinglin family, but the population was small. As for Lao Wu, three generations passed down the family. Seeing the situation becoming more and more turbulent, Chinese medicine was repeatedly pushed to the forefront. Lao Wu gritted his teeth and took advantage of the opportunity to study abroad. Send your grandson to seek refuge abroad.
Fortunately, he was sent out, otherwise not only his son but also his grandson might have been involved in the farce at the medical center three years ago, and the Wu family would have really lost its descendants.
Lao Wu led his grandson, who had dull eyes, and followed Feng Lu to the pharmacy. He wiped his tears and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you sir for giving me this opportunity."
Xu Yin asked him to sit down and talk in detail.
"Mr. Wu, I learned the general situation from Alu. You don't want to be separated from your grandson, right? I will arrange a guest room for you upstairs. You can sit downstairs during the day, and he can rest alone in the room upstairs. ?"
"That's no problem. I keep him in the room when I'm busy at home, bring him food at midnight, and take time to see him once or twice. As long as he doesn't have an attack, Aping is actually quite good, just like when he was a child. Really He is very good and obedient." Mr. Wu said, unable to help but choke up. "The reason why I want to take Aping with me is because if Aping is left alone at home, there will be ignorant children who deliberately throw rocks at my windows and scold him. A lunatic, he easily goes crazy when he hears harsh sounds, and he won’t make trouble unless you take the initiative to provoke him.”
Xu Yin nodded: "Then follow the arrangement just mentioned, and you can come to work tomorrow. In addition, his disease is not congenital, but caused by some external stimulation. Have you never thought of curing him?"
"I've thought about it! I've always dreamed of curing him!" Mr. Wu explained excitedly, "But every time I pick up the needle, my hand... it shakes so much that I worry about inserting it wrong or taking the needle off slowly. He got even sicker and hesitated to try.”
When Xu Yin heard this, she felt sad: This is probably because doctors don't treat themselves. When facing the people closest to them, having too many worries affects their mood.
As for why she didn’t find another doctor or a Western medicine doctor, Xu Yin learned from Feng Lu that Wu Anping’s first attack was in a pharmaceutical factory. He broke bottles and cans in the workshop and broke an instrument. .
The instrument was said to be a German product that the pharmaceutical company bought at a huge price. If they did not pay compensation, the pharmaceutical company would send Wu Anping to the police station. Mr. Wu had no choice but to spend all his money to compensate the pharmaceutical company in exchange for his grandson's safety.
This is why he dragged his grandson to find a job, because he really had no money to live.
"If I say that I am 80% sure of curing him, are you willing to take a gamble?"
After Xu Yin finished speaking, she bent down and took out a box of gold needles from the desk drawer.
Mr. Wu was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. His cloudy old eyes were now wide open: "Seriously?"
"80% sure." Xu Yin emphasized.
"That's also hope." Mr. Wu burst into tears. "I haven't dared to try, but I know that there is hope for him to be cured. I just can't overcome the problem of trembling hands. I'm too nervous... Wuwuwu... ...Mr. is compassionate and merciful, but I am old and have no repayment. I am willing to do my best for you in this life!"
"..."
Xu Yin twitched her lips: That’s not necessary!
"When you sit here with me, you are my employee. Helping employees solve their problems is what a good boss should do."
Feng Lu on the side looked at his nose and nose: Boss, you want to cure Wu Anping and let his grandfather and grandson stay to work for you, right?
