"Cold feet are caused by cold in the kidneys. Cold can be caused by external sources or endogenous factors. For example, if a loved one hurts the heart and the heart is cold, the heart will become cold. Didn't I verify it at Sanyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine last time? Sadness and hopelessness can all cause

The coldness of the body can be reflected in the pulse."

"Sanyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine? What verification?" Dean Wu was very curious.

Lao Ma briefly explained 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, he gave it in more detail this time.

He said: "There were three exams in total. The first level was the basics of traditional Chinese medicine. Professor Mei from the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine asked Dr. Yan to demonstrate the deficiency and excess of yin and yang."

"Yin and Yang are virtual and real? How to show it?" Dean Wu is an expert and knows this difficulty.

"Let's not talk about Xiao Yan's harm. He designed four experiments on the relationship between mind and body. He invited four pulse experts and four volunteers. Xiao Yan first wrote down the results of the pulse, and then asked the first volunteer to think about those disappointments.

People and things, and finally asked a pulse expert to check the volunteer's pulse. The result was exactly the same as what Xiao Yan had written in advance. They were all signs of coldness to palpation, slow pulse, and yang deficiency."

"Write down the results first? Doesn't this make you a prophet? This experiment is too clever." Dean Wu clapped his hands and exclaimed, "There are three more experiments? Please tell us in detail."

Lao Ma showed off his storyteller skills and took the trouble to introduce: "The second group is to think of something particularly important and feel particularly good in the heart and to rush to achieve it. Pulse verification: palpation of fever, pulse count, Yang and excess

.

"The third group is to think about something that consumes a lot of time and energy but has no effect, and does not want to do but has to do. Pulse verification: warm to palpation, weak and slow pulse, and signs of yin deficiency.

"The fourth group is to think about something that is extremely sad and despairing, and makes you never want to interact with the other person again. It feels cold on palpation, the pulse is heavy and tight, and it is yin."

Dean Wu repeatedly applauded: "Wonderful, wonderful. Director Ma, Xiao Yan, I think this is great. It would be even better if it could be popularized among doctors in our traditional Chinese medicine 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 we can do it step by step, first select some open-minded people, and then slowly inspire others."

Dean Wu understood what Yan Zixiu meant: "You are right, not everyone is willing to keep pace with the times, and there will always be people who are clinging to the old. You really have to take your time. It's too late this week, let's do it next week

Next week, you can consider asking Xiao Yan to sit in the clinic in the morning and give lectures in the afternoon. I will notify you in advance and I will take the lead in listening."

It seems that Dean Wu is still a sentimental person.

Yan Zixiu thought for a moment that although the afternoon lectures would have some impact on preparations for the retreat, compared with allowing more Chinese medicine practitioners to understand the interaction between mind and body and benefiting more patients, those impacts were nothing. So he nodded in agreement.

Lao Ma is a bit conflicted. It would be a pity if he was not present to attend the class; it would be inappropriate if he stayed here all day.

He said: "Dean Wu, I suggest recording it on site. Because this course is very precious, I hope to be able to listen to it afterwards."

Xiao Wu said: "I have learned a lot from following Dr. Yan all morning today. I also hope to listen to 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 had no objection: "I agree. I believe in a truth: the more I give, the more God will give me."

Dean Wu gave him a thumbs up gesture.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Yan Zixiu changed the subject: "Dean Wu, are there any difficulties in our traditional Chinese medicine hospital?"

"Sigh." These words aroused the sadness of Dean Wu. As a head of household, he has to worry about seven things when opening the door - firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. "Xiao Yan, how do you say this?

.The main reason is low profits. Although the old saying goes - I would rather just sell medicine and make it useless, as long as there are no patients in the world. But ideals cannot be separated from reality, and everyone still needs to eat.

Traditional Chinese medicine hospitals rarely use instruments for examinations, and there are no major surgeries or high-profit drugs. As for ordinary people, they feel that it shouldn’t be expensive to check their pulse and get some herbal medicines. Our hospital’s annual gross income is only a few million, and the net income is only a few million.

The profits are actually very small and very tight. To be honest, it is for this reason that many people's mentality is not very stable."

Lao Ma said: "If the disease can be cured, ordinary people may not be afraid of spending money."

Yan Zixiu thought for a while: "What Dean Wu and Director Ma said make sense. Whether it is medicine or medicine, it must be effective. Effectiveness is the last word. As for the issue of profit, Dean Wu, don't blame me for speaking out. I am.

I think we Chinese medicine practitioners are a bit like holding a golden rice bowl and begging for food."

Dean Wu was slightly stunned: "Xiao Yan, how do you say this?"

"Dean Wu, Director Ma, Xiao Wu and I are all in the high-end agricultural products office now. The various agricultural products we cultivate now are very profitable. Our model is to let the less wealthy villagers grow them and let the wealthy ones grow them.

People come to buy and eat.”

Dean Wu is very smart: "You mean, we can use the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to make high-end Chinese patent medicines to solve the problems of survival and development?"

"That's right, if you don't have money, you can't cultivate the Tao."

Dean Wu hesitated and said: "But Mr. Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, said: Don't use someone's wealth to give precious medicine, make it difficult for someone to find it, and show off your functions. This is not the way to be loyal and forgiving."

Yan Zixiu said: "If you intend to extort money and raise your own status, it is certainly not the way to be loyal and forgiving. On the one hand, the so-called high-end Chinese patent medicines are not ridiculously high. The prices are completely affordable by the wealthy class. On the other hand,

Most of these profits can be transferred to the training of traditional Chinese medicine doctors and the funding of poor patients. Isn't this charity from the rich to the poor, a win-win situation for all parties? In the middle, as long as a transparent fund is set up and half of the profits are transferred into the fund.

That’s it.”

Lao Ma nodded and said: "This is feasible. When Xiao Yan was at the Canton Fair, he met a Hong Kong boss asking for help. He had no idea of ​​charging high fees first and then treating him. It was the people themselves who wanted to thank him and give him wealth."

Dean Wu thought about it. How could Yan Zixiu, who could spend millions to support students and help the poor, be a money-grubbing person?

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, there is a precedent for Kampo in the Japanese island countries. Their products are sold very well all over the world.

Okay. To be honest, we are also envious."

"I think I can report this to Commissioner Wu. If a traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factory is opened in the future, it will also provide a lot of employment opportunities. This youth employment issue is giving Commissioner Wu a headache." What Lao Ma was thinking about

Wider.

Dean Wu was thinking about the future, and he was filled with excitement that he had not seen for a long time: "Thank you, Xiao Yan. You have helped us solve a big problem again. Come on, I'll give you a toast with tea instead of wine."

…

Back at the base, Yan Zixiu began to prepare for his second retreat of thousands of miles.

A few days ago, he found Wang Jingjing, the cultural teacher, and borrowed the middle school geography textbook to review it again. Before returning to the base from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, he ran to Xinhua Bookstore and bought a few books related to world geography, as well as a world map, and prepared

Get acquainted with the temporary assault.

There is a lot of space inside the Qiankun Ring. You can put books directly inside and check them at any time.

Xiao Wu and Wang Jingjing were both a little confused. They didn't know why he needed world geography information for his retreat. Could it be that Section Chief Yan was actually sleepwalking around the world during his retreat?
