Practicing business and practicing medicine

Based on different cultural backgrounds, people's cognitive differences are still quite large when facing the same thing.

For Bian Mu and Nie Yixiong, grapes and seabass have their own special significance in traditional Chinese medicine.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the concept of grapes is generally as follows: taste may be sweet or sour, neutral in nature, and return to the lung, spleen, and kidney meridians. Mainly used for damp paralysis of muscles and bones, replenishing qi, increasing strength, strengthening will, making people fat and strong, resistant to hunger, tolerant of wind and cold, eating for a long time, lightening the body, delaying aging, and prolonging life.

The so-called "return" meridian means that the nutrients or medicinal properties of grapes mainly "attribute" and "position" in the meridians that are the main hubs of the lungs. The meridians that are dominated by the spleen and the meridians that are dominated by the kidneys can be interpreted in layman's terms as "smooth". "If used correctly, the nutrients or medicinal properties of grapes can "smoothly reach" all lesions along the lung, spleen, and kidney meridian, thereby alleviating or completely eliminating related symptoms.

However, for any competent Chinese medicine doctor, grapes, a good product that can be used both as medicine and food, must be eaten with caution.

There has always been a saying in the field of traditional Chinese medicine that "one grape, one bowl of water" governs yin, so eat with caution, especially not overeating.

Bian Mu once specifically researched that the word "bowl" should be a misunderstanding by later generations. The word "抔" originally used in relevant ancient books should be a grape: a grape and a cup of water. In ancient times, conditions were limited and cultural inheritance was very difficult. In later generations, some misunderstandings and misunderstandings may occur, and it is very likely that it will gradually evolve into "one grape, one cup of water." Later, someone will exaggerate it, and then it will evolve into "one grape, one bowl of water." water" argument.

Some schools of traditional Chinese medicine believe that grapes are not a fruit that everyone can eat, especially if you eat them freely. If you are not careful, you can easily harm your body.

"It's out of season. I suddenly sent dozens of grapes here. What are you doing?! Are you testing me? Then... what do those grapes mean? Could it be..." After carefully counting them, Bian Mu said I have some guesses, but I can't completely confirm it yet.

In any case, in terms of the overall absolute strength of Chinese medicine, Bian Mu is several levels behind Nie Yixiong! If Bian Mu thought of himself as a small stream, Mr. Nie was like a vast ocean. A small measure could make a big difference. For a moment, Bian Mu really didn't dare to guess the old man's true intention.

Look at the steamed seabass again. River seabass is not a sea fish. Bian Mu is an expert in this field. You can tell the difference at a glance.

As the founder of the "Shu Yi" school of new traditional Chinese medicine, Bian Mu has always been good at using fish meals to treat diseases. Colleagues in the industry in Lijin have long discussed this.

River perch is sweet in taste and warm in nature; it returns to the liver meridian and stomach meridian; it nourishes qi, nourishes yin and nourishes the liver, strengthens the spleen and stomach, calms the fetus and qi, and nourishes the brain. Not only that, perch can also maintain nerves. For the normal function of the system, bass blood contains a lot of copper. Copper can maintain the normal function of the nervous system and actively participate in the functions of key enzymes in the metabolism of many substances.

These were the first thoughts in Bian Mu's mind...

"Test me?! Harm me?! He has such a high status as an old man, so he can't do it, right?! Can grapes and bass be connected?! Then... what's the explanation for the second chapter of "Journey to the West"?! It means the old man's mood Okay, are you kidding me? It’s not like that..." Bian Mu stood in front of the window and deduced some special logic for a long time.

Bian Mu had already counted. There were 36 grapes in total. They were of the highest quality. The size, color, texture, appearance and shape of each grape... were almost exactly the same. No need to ask, they were all carefully selected. Looking at them, Bian Mu felt that they were all the same. Guess some signs...

Luo Zhanqi had almost finished eating. He stood up, walked to Bian Mu, and asked casually, "Who sent it?"

"Mr. Nie!"

"Ah?! Nie Yixiong? Is this a real grape?"

"Well! It's true, but... it can no longer be eaten normally! The old man did some tricks himself. You see... there are 108 grape seeds, and each grape has no stems. This kind of grape, each grape has 108 seeds. The average number of grape seeds contained is about 3..." Bian Mu smiled and gave a few hints, but he didn't completely explain it.

"Holy crap! His old man usually practices with grapes! This inner strength... I can't accept it! What does he mean? Demonstrate to you?! Or?" Luo Zhanqi is an expert after all, and he can't react to Bian Mu's reminder. Isn’t that a fool?

Apparently, Nie Yixiong secretly used his inner energy to "force" out all the 36 grape seeds in front of him, and collected them one by one and sent them over for express delivery.

"Would it be more appropriate for us to understand it as Chuixun?" Bian Mu responded with a smile.

"Then...is this looking down on us? Or is it a warning? Let us restrain ourselves from doing things in the future?"

"It should be a warning! I was just messing around that day. Someone must have secretly recorded the video. Since we didn't remind us, I guess it was forwarded to a small area, and the three shots and two misses were also passed on to Mr. Nie. Okay, the old man has taken charge!" Bian Mu smiled and talked about his understanding of this matter.

"Wow! You're so smart when you're trying to clean up a junior student! That's awesome! Did you just say you can't eat these grapes?"

"I'm just making a wild guess. With the old man's skill, the inside will probably have turned into a puddle of water by now. If you don't believe me, just take a look!"

Hearing this, Luo Zhanqi was obviously a little skeptical. He himself was also a master of massage and bone setting. In order to make a living, he worked hard in his daily life. That's right! He was not as good as Bian Mu, but... there was probably only one genius like Bian Mu in ten million people. It was not shameful to be inferior to Bian Mu. Even if Nie Yixiong's medical skills were at the pinnacle, he was in his eighties. How good could he be!

Hesitating for a moment, out of curiosity, Luo Zhanqi stretched out his right hand to pick up a grape, and gently rubbed it with his thumb, index finger, and middle finger.

"Puff..." The grape at the tip of Luo Zhanqi's finger suddenly exploded. The pressure from nowhere splashed Luo Zhanqi's face directly.

Bian Mu had been prepared in advance and slightly avoided it. Even so, a few drops of water were splashed on the right shoulder of his jacket.

"Damn! Does that mean... after the grape seeds are forced out, the hidden power is still inside?! The old man's skill is simply amazing?!"

"Of course not! Otherwise, Nie Yawen went to great lengths to send us two express deliveries. It's okay. This grape juice is harmless. Let's take a look at the fish and see what's going on!"

After hearing this, Luo Zhanqi learned his lesson this time and didn't act rashly again.

After carefully observing it for a while, Luo Zhanqi smiled and guessed: "This fish must be boneless when eaten. The old man made it into a boneless braised chicken, right?"

"It should be! Take a few needles and pick it open to see." Bian Mu said with a smile.

"It smells pretty good, otherwise... it would be a waste to throw it away. I haven't eaten much yet! Let's eat it with chopsticks!"

"Forget it! I'll invite you to Cao's house to eat grilled fish some other day. It's better to be cautious when traveling with others!" Bian Mu smiled and didn't agree.

"No way... what dirty things would they put in the fish?!" Luo Zhanqi was shocked with his eyes wide open.

"That's not what I meant... After all, it's a prop, we don't need it, let's take out the needles!"

"Okay!" After saying that, Luo Zhanqi took out several large-sized needle knives specially used for Chinese medicine surgery from the equipment cabinet.

Two people each had two small needle knives, standing north and south, and they carefully began to disassemble the steamed sea bass...

As expected, the big thorns were easily analyzed, and the fish meat was almost undamaged. The tiny thorns that were barely visible to the naked eye under the fins and belly were picked out one by one with almost no effort.

Until this moment, Bian Mu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
