the world is at stake

Alright, chemistry class is over here.Students who don’t understand can figure it out by themselves after class—don’t think it’s too difficult.There is a case in this dynasty that graduates from junior high school can synthesize methamphetamine from non-controlled raw materials.

Then the country provides a one-stop service from life to death for this kind of 'talent'.If we can't figure it out, we can only explain...that's not what everyone eats.

The combination of isoniazid and streptomycin has a particularly good effect in the treatment of tuberculosis, but doctors generally advise to take the medicine for at least half a year or even a year to avoid recurrence and the development of drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

but……

As a conscientious international pharmaceutical supplier, why should American patients be treated too thoroughly?

The effect of taking isoniazid is very significant, and it can basically be regarded as a cure for the disease-if the patient relapses one day, he should buy another medicine.It's not expensive anyway.

If the bacteria in the body really develop drug resistance...the incurable disease with a mortality rate of 97% becomes a chronic disease, which is already a huge progress in medicine.

The requirements cannot be too high.

The things about capitalism can be solved with money, right?

Pharmaceutical companies also want to make profits. Anyway, it costs five dollars a dose, so you can buy it or not.

At the end of March 1911, a variety of special medicines developed and produced by Teito Pharmaceutical Group were shipped to Los Angeles, California.The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organized the first team of 3 people to follow Rockefeller Jr. to the United States to prepare for the completion of follow-up transactions.

Because it was so cool to make a billion dollars, the old Rockefeller waved his hand, and his family's medical research institute in New York provided the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology with 200 places to study abroad each year, and provided full scholarships.

As for China's desire to sell specific medicines for various diseases including tuberculosis in the affiliated enterprises of the Rockefeller consortium, the old Rockefeller was extremely skeptical about this, as if he doubted whether China had technology that could rival the United States?

So the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology personnel who went to the United States with the ship also included several trained medical staff.Their task was to find ten tuberculosis patients in Los Angeles and cure them within ten days.

If it can be cured, the old Rockefeller promised that as long as the medicines in China are not higher than those in the United States, the consortium will take the initiative to purchase a batch within the consortium for the treatment of patients in various oil companies.

Considering the current tense relationship between the old American consortium and the 'Brotherhood', the old Rockefeller would rather buy Chinese medicines than give money to the pharmaceutical companies affiliated to the 'Brotherhood'.

Considering the current population of nearly [-] million in the United States, the number of tuberculosis patients is on the order of millions.Each person purchases one dose per year, and the purchase amount can reach tens of millions of dollars.

This is just isoniazid. If you consider drugs such as penicillin, sulfonamides, aspirin, and nitroglycerin, it is not too much to make hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

After all, there are no good medicines for the rich in the United States these days.For example, using radioactive radium element as an aphrodisiac is a routine operation, and profiteers named this deceitful potion 'Thor'.

American quack doctors also transplanted 'sheep testicles' to patients, claiming to 'enhance the body and return to youth'.I don't know how many transplanted men can survive?

As for blindly messing with secret recipes, relying on metaphysical propaganda to sell high prices to deceive people and other operations, future generations of liars will feel ashamed and willing to bow down.

If Chinese medicines do work, it would be a blessing from heaven for Americans.But if Chinese medicines can't cure patients, forget about everything that will follow.Honestly admit that American technology is number one in the world.

This form of betting is very in line with the domineering and tough character of the old Rockefeller, and it has also forced the domestic Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Health to take it seriously.

The medicines sent to the United States are personally supervised by the medical and chemical experts in the 'Shengguang' team, and the curative effects are tested.

Doctors and nurses going to the United States also receive special training to ensure that the medicines do not deteriorate during transportation—isoniazid crystals are sensitive to light and are prone to react with metal utensils. There are many precautions when preparing injections.

Qu Yongqiu, the dean of Tianjin Medical College, personally led the team, and followed the entourage of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to the United States with anxiety.He is from Cantonese, received British education, well aware of the development of Europe and the United States, and actually has doubts about the effects of his own medicines.

During the long journey across the Pacific Ocean, Rockefeller Jr. was curious and liked to chat with the Chinese civil servants who accompanied him.When we found Qu Yongqiu, we had to ask some questions.

"Qu, I heard that you used to be a court doctor in the former court? Witnessed the death of the emperor and the empress dowager."

To this question, Qu Yongqiu smiled wryly: "Yes. I was the imperial physician of Emperor Guangxu. Before he died, he recruited me into the palace, rolled around on the bed, and told me 'the stomach hurts so bad'.

Less than 24 hours after the emperor's death, the Empress Dowager Cixi also died.I was there at the time, and I can be regarded as witnessing the end of a historical drama. "

Wow... Little Rockefeller became more curious, and continued to ask: "I heard that you Chinese men all wear braids and wear very cumbersome mandarin jackets. Why did you suddenly change?"

Qu Yongqiu smiled even more bitterly, "It's a republic, so there must be changes. The central government asked to cut off the braids, so we naturally cut them off. The central government also wants to reform ideas, so everyone's basic necessities of life have changed accordingly."

"Unbelievable, no one resisted?"

"Of course there is, but the central government is stronger. Some elders and children refuse to cut their braids, so they can only stay at home, otherwise they will be arrested by the police and forcibly cut their braids when they go out."

Little Rockefeller sounded more excited.In his eyes, China is a chaotic and mysterious country.Ancient, backward, ignorant, innovative, advanced, powerful, each of which is completely different from the United States.

"How big is Tianjin Medical College?"

"It's not big. The previous dynasty trained 218 batches of students, and there were only [-] graduates in total. But since last year, the school has enrolled more than [-] students at one time.

Central ministries are dissatisfied with the quantity and quality of training in new schools everywhere.As the dean of Tianjin Medical College, I was required to increase the number of students in the school to 2000 within five years. "

Qu Yongqiu habitually smiled wryly, "The tasks put down by the central government are heavy, but we don't even have enough school buildings, let alone enough qualified medical teachers. In addition, there are not enough qualified students. Everything is very difficult.

This time I am going to the United States, I want to recruit several qualified teachers of Western medicine from Los Angeles and other places.I also want to thank you for donating $50 to our school. "

Little Rockefeller was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he did nothing else in his life except to donate money everywhere.He liked Qu Yongqiu, waved his hand and said, "I can help you recruit some experienced medical professors from New York."

Qu Yongqiu expressed his thanks again.

The other party asked again: "Your medical education is so backward, but why is the pharmaceutical industry so strong? As far as I know, European and American countries have only recently developed specific drugs for the treatment of syphilis and tuberculosis."

"I can't tell." Qu Yongqiu shook his head and said, "Since April last year, the Ministry of Health of the Imperial Capital has suddenly recruited personnel from hospitals and health institutions around the world for training, including myself, who was also called to learn the latest medical and pharmaceutical developments.

In the half-year short training, we have acquired far more knowledge and insights than before.Such as the matching of human blood types and safe blood transfusion, the use of X-ray machines, the pathogenic principles and treatment of viruses and germs.

This new knowledge completely changed current medical theory, and all diagnosis and treatment changed accordingly.It amazes me that such huge advances have all turned out to be correct.

For example, the use of sulfonamides and penicillin has saved no less than 1 lives.Caesarean section keeps thousands of women with dystocia to give birth safely. "

"What about isoniazid?" asked Rockefeller Jr.

"Pulmonary tuberculosis is called 'tuberculosis' in our country, and it is an absolutely incurable disease. Patients live from months to years and are tortured.

But since the introduction of isoniazid, from last year to now, the Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin Medical College alone has cured more than [-] "pulmonary tuberculosis" patients.

Among them were several doctors and nurses who were infected during the treatment.I personally tracked down all the cases I could find, and the patients treated with the combination of isoniazid and streptomycin basically improved significantly within half a month. "

Wow... Rockefeller Jr. exclaimed, "Congratulations on such an amazing achievement, I hope this is true. Medicines are very profitable, and they will definitely make money in the United States."

Qu Yongqiu said heartily: "What do you mean by 'hope is real'? Although I don't know how the backward China has such a miraculous drug. But judging from the curative effect, it is real."

At this point in the conversation, Rockefeller Jr. couldn't hold back any longer. He couldn't wait to see how the [-] doses of isoniazid and [-] doses of penicillin Qu Yongqiu brought would work.

So when the ocean-going ship headed for Los Angeles docked in Tokyo, Rockefeller Jr. had a whim and asked the local American firm to find some seriously ill patients—the heavier the better, and the priority was given to those who were close to death.

Tokyo is currently the largest industrial city in Japan, with a population of 300 million. It is really easy to find a few patients.

The first child to be sent was a child suffering from sepsis, about seven or eight years old, thin and small. When he was carried by his parents, he had a high fever and went into a coma from shock.

The second, a sailor, had syphilis and had obvious syphilis marks on his arms and face.The guy doesn't care about himself, but is clearly ostracized by others.

The third is a retired official, who is old and has suffered from tuberculosis for two or three years. His face is extremely pale, he coughs violently, and often coughs up blood.

Qu Yongqiu was dumbfounded by Little Rockefeller's fantasy.He lacked diagnostic equipment, but the condition of the three cases was extremely obvious, so he could only bite the bullet and use medicine.

Sulfonamide for sepsis, penicillin for syphilis, isoniazid plus streptomycin for tuberculosis.

Rockefeller Jr. was not present, but the medical experiment aroused the curiosity of hundreds of passengers on the liner.The captain was going to leave for one day, but in order to see the results of the treatment, he stayed for an extra day.

Soon, news spread that the mysterious American was treating terminally ill patients at the port.

At present, "Japan-US goodwill" focuses on good people and good things about the United States.The Tokyo media spontaneously went to the port to collect information, and witnessed Qu Yongqiu giving medicine to three patients at the passenger terminal.

When they found out that the doctor was Chinese, the Japanese journalists did not want to report or changed the direction of the report.However, the rapid change in symptoms of the three patients after taking the medicine is really amazing.

The child suffering from sepsis fell into a coma with a high fever, just one step away from the gate of death. After taking sulfonamide, the high fever subsided that night.Qu Yongqiu also hung a bottle of glucose and sodium chloride injection for the child.

The next morning, the child woke up, yelling that he was hungry.

Syphilis patients do not change temporarily after injection of penicillin.The retired official suffering from tuberculosis was in much better condition that night, his cough and hemoptysis were greatly relieved, and he had a good night's sleep.

The passenger ship stayed for two days and had no time to continue to observe the progress of the disease.Qu Yongqiu left after leaving follow-up medicine.

Rockefeller Jr. was even more excited, and asked the American businessman in Tokyo to follow up on the status of the three patients and send a telegram to Hawaii.

Half a month later, Rockefeller Jr., who arrived in Hawaii, went to the telegraph room to pick up the telegram in person.The content of the report is very simple-the three patients have all recovered within a week and are in good condition.

This experiment greatly enhanced Rockefeller Jr.'s trust in Chinese medicines. He said that as long as half of the patients in the Los Angeles experiment recovered, he would ask his father to help sell medicines in China.

As everyone knows, Qu Yongqiu has not yet arrived in Los Angeles, and the medical experiment in Tokyo caused an uproar in Japan.

Chapter 69 What a surprise

"Miura-kun."

The door of the office was pushed open abruptly, and two Japanese candidates ran in in a panic, shouting loudly, "Something has happened, a riot broke out in the port area."

Nani? !

Miura raised his head from a pile of documents, his eyeballs shrunk to the size of mung beans, and asked inexplicably, "Minato District? Tokyo Minato District? Riot?"

"Yes."

"why?"

"There are rumors that an ocean liner docked in the port area five days ago, and an American passenger on board for some reason recruited three seriously ill patients with different diseases from the city and treated them.

All three patients were terminally ill, namely 'sepsis', 'syphilis' and 'tuberculosis'.

Among them, a seven-year-old child suffering from 'septicemia', because he accidentally injured himself while playing, caused a streptococcal infection and went into shock, the doctor believed that he would never survive.

But it was such a serious condition that the child's fever subsided that night after being treated by an American passenger, and he became sober the next day.

The parents of the child were very pleasantly surprised by this, and told their neighbors in Arakawa District about it. "

After hearing the description from his subordinates, Miura asked in confusion, "Is this a good thing? What does it have to do with the riot?"

Arakawa District is a famous slum in Tokyo. The living environment there is very bad, and the people living there are low-class people such as coachmen, cleaners, and cooks.

Arakawa is extremely poor, how poor is it?

A dozen people lived in a small room there.In summer, three or four mosquitoes are squeezed into a bed of broken mosquito nets.The slums lack sewers, and the peculiar smell wafts around.

There is also a unique "leftover rice house" in the district, which is a place to sell leftovers.

The boss tried his best to collect the food, cleaned it up and sold it to the poor.Bread crumbs, onion fragments, and fish bones mixed with burnt rice are rare delicacies-but the source of food may be sewers.

In such a place, mosquitoes are rampant, snakes and rats are rampant, and there are so many patients.News of the rescue of the sepsis child spread naturally.Since they are all neighbors, the people at the bottom have no doubts about the authenticity.

Because the incident related to Americans, Tokyo's "Yomiuri Shimbun" also specially reported it, not mentioning the Chinese doctor, only talking about wealthy American businessmen.

Miura thought for a while, then exclaimed and asked, "Wait, can it treat sepsis? It's either sulfonamide or penicillin. It's definitely not ordinary people who can provide this kind of medicine. I'm afraid it's not that simple behind it."

It's not easy, but that's about it for the treatment in Tokyo.

The parents of the child were overjoyed, but inadvertently revealed that the port hospital still had follow-up injections and medicines left by the rescue doctor.They have to go to get the medicine again the next day, and it's free.

Now it's bad.

There were countless patients in Arakawa District. On the same day, dozens of patients accompanied by their families went to the port hospital, hoping to get free treatment.

The doctors in the hospital did not realize the seriousness of the problem.Facing the used patients, they admitted that there are indeed free medicines provided by American passengers, but the medicines can only be used by three lucky guys.

The nurse also provided the identities of three patients, children, sailors, and retired officials, all of whom were terminally ill, and all of them improved significantly after taking medication.

The strong contrast brings raging topicality.Within two days, the poor in Arakawa District kept going to the Minato Hospital for help, hoping that someone with good intentions could save the lives of their families.

No one believed that this was just a temporary idea of ​​a wealthy American passing by, let alone that there happened to be a Chinese doctor who gave medicines for free in order to earn money from Americans.

The patients and their families who rushed to the port hospital tried their best to process sporadic information, and came to a conclusion-the Japanese government put away the free medicine provided by the United States, and only used it for officials and nobles.

The news that President Marcos of the United States has provided a billion-dollar loan to Japan is being widely disseminated by the Japanese media.

The public easily draws conclusions and only believes what they think is the most correct situation - the government does not care whether the poor live or die, and does not distribute US aid to the inferior.

In addition, there are rumors that there are aid materials sent by the United States at the port, and life-saving special medicines are stored at the pier-for people who are dying, this is nothing more than a life-saving straw.

As a result, more and more people went to the port hospital and the port area.

Only then did the Port Hospital know that the situation was out of control, and the person in charge of the hospital did one thing without hesitation—shut down the hospital as if nothing had happened.

Good guy, if we don't close the hospital, there may be room for redemption.Closing the hospital is tantamount to cutting off the last hope of the poor patients, so the riots broke out.

On the night when the port hospital was closed, it was smashed open by poor people surrounded outside, trying to find a doctor to have a good talk, even begging.

When it was discovered that there were only a few nurses left in the hospital to take care of the patients, the family members of the patients became even more angry and clashed with the police who came to maintain order.

At this time, there were 8000 poor people surrounding the port area, and all of them were emotional.

It was dark at that time, and during the pushing and shoving, hundreds of Japanese policemen were beaten with bruises all over their heads, and ran away with their heads in their arms.Seeing that their families are numerous and powerful, the poor people who lost their restraints spread around with various purposes, launching "zero-dollar shopping" by smashing and looting.

After the Katsura cabinet received a loan of [-] million pounds from the UK, it used the money for military expansion and war preparations—this was also requested by the UK, and the funds were used exclusively.

The oppressed and inferior people thought that "[-] million pounds" would let them breathe a sigh of relief, but what they got in return was that the Kanto Governor's Mansion lost control of the three eastern provinces during the Chinese war, and was compressed to linger on the Liaodong Peninsula.

Now the billion-dollar loan in the United States has not brought any benefits to the inferior people, and the hope of survival has been completely wiped out.A conflict caused by a drug test is like throwing a fire on dry wood, which quickly burns into a raging flame.

Miura's 'Dadongya Co., Ltd.' is located in Koto District, Tokyo. He ran to the office on the fourth floor of the company and opened the window. At night, he could see the fire burning in the direction of Minato District in Tokyo Bay.

"Baga, what are those poor people doing? They set fire to it? Are they trying to destroy the city? Is the army dispatched? Hurry up and suppress the riot!"

In the dark night, countless pairs of eyes looked at the direction of Minato District from all over Tokyo, watching the fire soaring into the sky.It was a large amount of goods and warehouses piled up in the port area, all turned into fly ash in the blink of an eye.

The police and fire brigades throughout Tokyo are running in the Chaomin District-if you don't go, you can't. Tokyo has a large population, but most of the buildings are made of wood.Once the fire is out of control, the fun will be great.up
