There are so many twists and turns here that even Song Tangyuan was confused.
"Then what is the critical point you mentioned?"
Li Chu thought for a moment and shrugged: "I can't tell, but I can tell based on the pulse."
Song Tangyuan thought for a while and asked: "Although I have never read your prescription, nor have I seen their experiments, I have heard others say that all the medicinal materials in your prescription are non-toxic, and they No matter how you combine them, the final result is not poisonous.
It stands to reason that even if it doesn't work after eating it, it won't kill people, but why is the result exactly the opposite?"
Li Chu smiled when he heard this: "This is what I said before. If you can find hundreds or thousands of people to do experiments, you can get some useful data."
Now Song Tangyuan finally understood. What he meant was that the medicine itself is not poisonous, but if you don't find the exact amount your body needs, you will be poisoned if you drink it.
What caused his poisoning was certain secretions in the person's own body.
If you want to get data, you really can only take it and then look at it later.
So, is this unsolvable?
"Is there any way to popularize your medicine?"
Li Chu looked at Song Tangyuan up and down for a long time with a very strange look, which made everyone look strange. Then he said slowly: "What do you think?"
"I...I just asked you because I didn't know!"
"Do you have any solution for the hundred-year-old wild ginseng in the prescription?"
"Uh..." Song Tangyuan shook his head: "Is there no way to replace it?"
"If it could be replaced, I wouldn't have specified it on the prescription. Don't think about it. It won't be popularized at all. How many people do you mean by popularizing it? How many people are you going to ask me to check their pulses?"
"You can teach others..." He stopped before he finished speaking. He even wanted to slap himself. Who would teach others such a unique technique?
Li Chu smiled and nodded: "You are right, I can teach others.
Tang Yuan, let me tell you now that I have taught this man to take your pulse and prescribe that medicine. Do you dare to drink it?"
Damn it, Song Tangyuan suddenly realized that he had forgotten the most important point. This medicine would kill people if it was not taken properly. Now if someone else comes to check his pulse and prescribe medicine, he will definitely not dare to drink it, because life There is no room for error in this thing!
He smiled sheepishly and apologized quickly: "I'm really sorry. I thought it was wrong."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I just wanted to tell you so much, and I also wanted to convey it to your director through you. Don't waste your time. If you have the time, do more research on other things.
Don’t the superiors know the prescription I prescribed, or the effect of my medicine?
No, they knew, so why didn't they give the order to do it, what if it succeeded?
It is because they know that this is unreliable and there is no way to popularize it, so it is better to be down-to-earth and pragmatic if we have this time."
Everyone knows the truth, but it is too difficult to do it. There is obviously a shortcut in front of you, but there is no way to go through it. No one can easily give up.
"Alas..." Song Tangyuan nodded and said, "I know Li Chu. I will convey your words to our director."
"When you go back, tell your director that he'd better stop here. Of course, he can continue, but I guess by then, some leaders will have opinions about him."
Li Chu's words shocked Song Tangyuan. The boss in front of him can see his superiors at any time. He really didn't threaten you by saying this.
"Don't worry, Li Chu. I promise to convey your words to our director verbatim."
After the serious business that should be discussed was finished, the two of them entered the chatting mode.
"By the way, Tang Yuan, last time the director of your Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine was taken away by someone who was hunting rabbits, why didn't you take advantage of the situation? You, the deputy director, have been around for a long time, right?"
"This is not my cousin's business. Will it have a certain impact on me? I can't help it. Just bear with it!"
Song Tangyuan looked very helpless. He was several years older than Li Chu. He was already fifty this year. If he couldn't rise above his age, it would be time to make room for young people.
Look at the youngest person in his class in front of him and see what level he is now. When he came here just now, he saw that the special bus was parked there at the entrance of the alley.
You really have to compare things with others, and comparing people to people is really annoying.
"By the way, Li Chu, we classmates haven't gotten together for a while. I'll find a time after the Chinese New Year for us all to get together. The expense is still the same as the old rules. We have divided it as a family unit."
"I have no problem here. Just look at the arrangements and let me know when the time comes."
At this time, Ding Qiunan walked in, said hello to Song Tangyuan, chatted for a few words, then refilled their glasses with water, and walked out again.
"Tsk tsk, Li Chu, look at what you two look like, and then look at me and our other classmates. Who would believe it when they say you are classmates with us after we go out? We are all old!"
"Why are you old? Whether at home or at work, you are the backbone of your life. How can you say you are old?"
"After the resumption of the college entrance examination, the first batch of college students have graduated and been assigned to their units. They will come to work after the Chinese New Year. In a year or two, we old guys will have to step aside to make way for young people."
"Tang Yuan, no one can avoid this problem. No matter how young I am, I won't be able to live longer than you by a few years regardless of my age."
Time is not forgiving, and no one can escape the age barrier. Li Chu is a doctor at first, so he can work for a few more years, but the duties that should be removed will naturally be removed when he reaches age.
The two chatted for a while, and then Song Tangyuan said goodbye and left. He had to go back to give the director a reply, so he should probably wait in a hurry.
After sending the guests away, Li Chu came to the kitchen. In the past half day, Ding Qiunan not only mixed the stuffing for the buns, but also prepared the dough. He put in the yeast dough and woke up to the radiator, so that he could make the buns in the evening.
The three children have also gotten up and are consciously studying together.
As soon as the two of them walked into the living room together, Ding Qiunan remembered something and asked: "Li Chu, in the second or third year of junior high school, do you still have to go to the nursing home to pay Uncle Wu a New Year's greetings?"
"Well, it's necessary. If you don't go, you'll be punished."
"Then what should we get there this year? You brought back so many annual goods that day."
"Oh, Uncle Wu, you can order whatever you want. Didn't he say last year that he liked to eat the braised pork that your mother made? Just get some of that."
