Break out of the courtyard

When Lou Bancheng started a life of fishing for shark fins on Hong Kong Island, Zhang Heping had just returned to Nanla Town and started to deal with the mess in the health center.

The vice president, Shen Mo, served as the director of Jingcheng Pharmaceutical Factory, and transferred seven doctors and six nurses, including Yangu, Huanglian, Yulu, Xiaohuang and Xiaolong, to the pharmaceutical factory as technical workers.

Nanla Town Health Center suddenly had one administrative post and 1 health technical posts vacant, attracting covetous attention from the commune and neighboring towns.

On the first day Zhang Heping came back on April 4, he promoted Bai Yun to deputy dean. After calling him, he approved it.

Now, Nanla Town Health Center only has 14 health technology posts.

Zhang Heping said that he wanted to enter the Nanla Town Health Center. Three days later, he went to the leprosy village to stay for a week, and then came back to learn medical knowledge for a month, and then selected 3 people from them to enter the health center.

As soon as these words came out, the people related to the commune and the neighboring towns recoiled. The locals were saying how dangerous the leprosy village was and they did not dare to go.

The number of independent villages in Nanla Town has reached 10, and the total population has reached 865, including 181 children, 76 elderly people, and 44 educated youths.

Once the condition of staying in a leprosy village for a month was released, not only did outsiders shrink back, but the people in the town were also afraid. On the contrary, the educated youth were very active, and 23 male and female educated youths signed up.

These educated youths thought simply. Since Zhang Heping dared to go there himself, there should be no danger!

On April 4, Zhang Heping took 14 educated youths and 23 young men and women from towns and villages to the leprosy village in the northwest, carrying dry food, herbs, casseroles, and four large wooden barrels.

In traditional Chinese medicine, leprosy is also known as leprosy, gale, leprosy, leprosy, bad disease, leprosy, etc.

Leprosy is recorded in the Huangdi Neijing:

The wind energy enters together with the sun, travels through the meridians and shu, disperses between the divided muscles, and is related to the defensive energy. Its path is unfavorable, so the muscles are angry and ulcerated, and the defensive energy is condensed and unable to move, so the flesh is not benevolent. In cases of scabies, there is heat in the body and the Qi is not clear, so the nose column is damaged, the color is discolored, and the skin is ulcerated.

In the treatment of leprosy, there are methods such as detoxification, insecticide, dispelling wind, strengthening the body, activating blood circulation, and unblocking collaterals.

Zhang Heping simply brought some cocklebur ointment there and asked the children and patients with mild symptoms to take it before and after three meals.

After that, I made some No. 1 Saofeng Pills and went over, leaving the medicine and the instructions for taking it, and left.

In December last year, he brought some herbs and a casserole over and taught villagers who were functioning normally how to prepare medicine for patients.

This time I went there, firstly to select people for the health center, and secondly to deliver some herbs for medicated baths to patients with moderate and late-stage leprosy.

Zhang Heping sent a batch of willow branches, peach branches, mulberry branches, locust branches, and mulberry branches from other provinces. After Director Zhao received the goods, he cut some in the wasteland behind the health center and brought the remaining branches over.

Just these five kinds of common branches, boiled into a thick soup, poured into a wooden barrel and mixed with boiling water to make a medicinal bath, can relieve the symptoms of leprosy patients in the middle and late stages. Can you believe it?

The medicines used in the other medicated bath are also very simple. They include Digupi, Sophora flavescens, Schizonepeta, Asarum, Xanthium and Fructus Fructus. The effect is much better than that of the previous medicated bath. It not only relieves the condition, but also provides treatment. The effect is just that the amount of medicinal materials required is a bit too much.

In addition, there are many prescriptions for the treatment of leprosy, but leprosy has many names in traditional Chinese medicine and has not been uniformly classified under the name of leprosy, and most of them are prescriptions for the treatment of the disease.

Zhang Heping took 35 men and women who wanted to be doctors on mountain roads and slept in the mountains. It took them three days to reach the leprosy village.

Then, these 35 men and women were surprised to find that at least half of the people here looked normal.

What surprised them even more was that after they put down their things, Dean Zhang Heping only let them watch from the side. Zhang Heping was the one communicating with the villagers the whole time.

After the villagers learned how to make two kinds of medicated baths and soaked the four patients in four large wooden barrels, Zhang Heping took a photo of the 4 of them and the villagers, left their things, and returned with them.

On the way back, Zhang Heping began to introduce leprosy to the 35 candidates, focusing on the mode of infection.

Among them, although leprosy can be transmitted through droplets, its transmissibility is weak.

Generally, only children and people with low immunity are easily infected.

Zhang Heping also told them that although leprosy is generally less contagious, they should still wear necessary masks.

This is not only to protect yourself, but also to protect your family and other patients.

Therefore, the first lesson Zhang Heping taught was not how to treat leprosy, but to teach them to remember personal protection.

Zhang Heping asked them to remember that when they faced infectious diseases today, they did not wear masks and may have been infected!

Therefore, when we teach about the treatment of leprosy, especially how to identify the symptoms of leprosy, everyone must listen carefully and remember it carefully, so as not to know that they have leprosy.

The 35 young men and women thought of the severe leprosy patients they had seen before and their horrific symptoms. If they had contracted that disease... they were terrified just thinking about it!

Just when the 35 candidates were preparing to study hard on their return journey in the next three days, Zhang Heping took them to the combat readiness highway in just half a day.

Then he stopped the car and sent them back to Nanla Town.

Emmm...

In the following week, Zhang Heping used leprosy as an example to explain leprosy-related treatment prescriptions to Baiyun, Yishu, and 35 candidates. From the different medicinal materials in the prescriptions, he extended the explanation of the combination of traditional Chinese medicines.

Because Zhang Heping said that leprosy has an incubation period, he did not know whether the 35 candidates were infected or when they would become ill. This caused these candidates to study extremely seriously for fear that they were infected with leprosy without knowing it.

In the next three weeks, Baiyun and Yishu were asked to teach the 35 candidates using their own study notes and work notes.

On May 5, Zhang Heping allocated four health technology positions and asked Vice President Bai Yun to assess the 17 candidates.

As a result, Baiyun found 3 patients, put 35 candidates into practice, and finally passed 4 educated youths.

After these four educated youths were reported to the Jingcheng Laoye Bureau by Vice President Bai Yun, the approval documents from the Educated Youth Office and the Laoye Bureau were sent the next day, which made the remaining 4 educated youths extremely excited.

May 5th, light rain.

Together with Director Zhao, Zhang Heping directed the townspeople to transplant the tea trees that survived last year's cuttings and cut the branches of this year's tea trees and wild tea trees before he returned to the health center to teach again.

In the next month, Zhang Heping used three languages ​​to repeatedly and in-depth explain what Baiyun and Yishu had taught before, and answered the learning questions of the 12 local young people very carefully.

These 12 people also worked hard, but their Chinese language skills were not good, and there were some deviations in Baiyun and Yishu's translations.

It was a rare sunny day on June 6, and the early rice that was trial-planted in December last year matured. Men, women, and children all over the town ran to the fields to harvest rice, even Zhang Heping was no exception.

In the past, the first season of rice harvest here was in early May, before the rainy season.

However, the technician at the Agricultural Science Station said that the rice grains were not full and there was still time left.

In addition, the previous second-season rice was planted in late May, and the harvest time coincided with the abundant rainfall season in September. The harvested rice was prone to mold.

Therefore, technicians from the Agricultural Science Station came to guide the harvesting time of the first season of early rice in mid-to-late June when there is less rainfall. Once the weather clears, the rice will be harvested.

I heard from Director Zhao that the rice harvested per acre this year is indeed dozens of pounds heavier than in previous years.

After the early rice was harvested, technicians from the Agricultural Science Station sent late rice seeds.

After finishing the farm work in the fields, Zhang Heping called 6 doctors and 31 candidates back to the health center, and started a new round of assessment, and still offered 4 places for health technology positions.

Although this assessment came a little late, it was not unexpected. It was just delayed by the busy farming schedule.

Zhang Heping explained the test questions in three languages. Under the astonished gazes of Baiyun and Yishu, Zhang Heping openly insulted the locals and bullied the educated youth for not understanding the local dialect.

Therefore, the four doctors approved this time are all local young people.

It was July, and there were still 7 places for 6 educated youths and 19 local young people to compete for.

The 27 doctors who were candidates thought they would have to study for another month before taking the exam, but they did not want Zhang Heping to classify these 6 names as nurses.

After briefly teaching them hygiene knowledge, nursing precautions, intravenous injection and other simple knowledge for a few days, the assessment began.

This time, Zhang Heping handed Yi Shu over to take the exam, while Bai Yun and eight other doctors watched. Finally, two female educated youths and four local young girls were selected.

Just when the 17 educated youths and 4 local young people who failed to be selected were disappointed, Zhang Heping asked them to pack their bags and follow the silent factory director who came to Nanla Town to check the growth of Artemisia annua to work as workers in the Jingcheng Pharmaceutical Factory.

These 21 young people had studied hard for so long, and Mo Mo was willing to sell Zhang Heping's face, so the job was decided. Afterwards, I don't know how many people would regret not participating in the job selection of the health center.

"Dean Zhang, can't you give me a batch of Artemisia annua first?" Shen Mo stood at the door of the bus depressed, trying to work harder.

Zhang Heping smiled and said: "Director Shen, if you want to make the name of Jingcheng Pharmaceutical Factory a hit, just listen to me and come to drag Huanghua Hao in the middle of next month."

The next day, more than 800 men, women, and children in Nanla Town took action, weaving bamboo strips on rainy days, and going to the west slope to cut the top branches of Artemisia annua and make cuttings on sunny days.

The amount of cuttings this year is 10 times that of last year.

On this low mountain to the west, except for the row of north-south trees on the top of the mountain, only their branches have been pruned. The east and west slopes have been reclaimed and planted with Artemisia annua.

However, the east slope of this mountain facing Nanla Town is a patch of Artemisia annua that is about to bloom, while the west slope is a patch of Artemisia annua branches that have just been cut.

"Old Zhao, from the Artemisia annua on the east hillside, only two to three hundred of the largest and strongest plants will be left as seeds next month, and the rest will be sold to pharmaceutical companies. Remember, only the flower buds of Artemisia annua grow, but Artemisia annua is most effective in treating malaria when it is not blooming."

"Xiao Zhang, don't worry when you go out to find medicine for the patients in the leprosy village. Leave it to me here. I guarantee there will be no problem."
