Practicing business and practicing medicine

After not going into the mountains for a long time, Bian Mu found that the roads that could be traveled in Hongnigou had been reduced to two. A year ago, experienced, bold and careful herb farmers could still climb high and far to pick along the three paths opened by their predecessors. Some of the best Chinese herbal medicines, but nowadays, the road with the highest risk factor and where you can pick high-quality medicinal materials has been lost in the twigs and branches of all kinds of dead branches and leaves. Without any real skills, ordinary medicinal farmers will never dare to work alone. Involved in danger.

At present, there are two small trails left, one is slightly wider, and it is no problem for two adults to walk side by side. The other is much narrower, and only one person is allowed to walk alone. The snow is not gone, the temperature is low, and the mountain wind is strong. Experienced people really don’t dare to go deep alone.

Worried that Nana would become afraid again after seeing the "red-tailed scorpion", Bian Mu specially put the captured live scorpion into a special bamboo vessel. The main material was similar to bamboo mats. He used tung oil several times to set up the inside and outside. There is a small organ, which Bian Mu and herbal farmers use specifically to contain living Chinese medicinal materials. Years of practice have proven that it is foolproof.

At this time, Bian Mu found that his shoulders were already wet with residual snow, snow, and mountain dew. He had to pick some other medicinal materials when he turned around. To protect himself from the cold, Bian Mu took out a disposable moisture-proof raincoat from his backpack and put it on. .

Along the way he came, Bian Mu returned to Nana.

"Put this on, it's waterproof and moisture-proof!" As he spoke, Bian Mu handed a folded travel raincoat to Nana's hand.

"No! The leather jacket I'm wearing is so valuable. It's waterproof and moisture-proof."

"You don't understand what I mean. This environment is completely different from ours in the county. The cold here is far more harmful to the human body than you can imagine. Fortunately, you are wearing high-end leather boots. , the Yongquan point on the soles of the feet is not enough to catch the cold, and isn't there a Baihui point on our heads? You also saw that the remaining snow on the mountain, as long as we touch it a little, it will fall on both of us immediately. It will be completely resolved within 10 seconds. You will be overcome by cold and wet. Unknowingly, the root of the disease will soon be planted in your body. If it cannot be resolved in time, in the future, as long as other disease conditions are met, you will be 100% susceptible to the disease. , and ordinary doctors can’t cure it.” Bian Mu explained with a smile for a long time.

"Is it that serious?! You sound serious." Nana has known since she was a child that Bian Mu not only has a high IQ, but also never talks nonsense. Nana's brother is just the opposite. He talks nonsense all day long. She didn't have a formal appearance. After all, she honestly threw off her raincoat and put it on her body. Naturally, she had to wear her rain hat tightly.

"There is a shack over there. The herb gatherers built it themselves. It is protected from wind and insects. Let's go! Let's go there first and light a bonfire. You can rest there while I have to pick some emergency herbs. It is not suitable to stay in this place for a long time. , we’ve almost gathered the medicinal materials, let’s go down the mountain!”

"Okay! Hey! On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, most pharmacies in Lijin are open! Are you worried about not being able to buy it? As for going to such a dangerous place to collect medicine?"

"On the one hand, the medicinal materials here are wild and powerful. When treating diseases, they can greatly shorten the treatment cycle. If the symptoms are met, the patient cooperates 100%, and the time is right... it may even shorten the treatment time by 80 to 90%. !" While leading the way, Bian Mu smiled and explained a few words.

"So awesome?"

"No! Some time ago, I was worried that the pharmaceutical company would spend money to rent our feng shui treasure land, and later ruin the good feng shui in this mountain. It would be unreasonable. I just checked it, and it was okay. I could hardly see it. Traces of large-scale development.”

"If you didn't tell me, I really didn't know there was such a thing! We can't let them do whatever they want."

"There are a few more important patients in Lijin. It's like this every year during the Chinese New Year! What if one more year and one less year are enough? The patients can't afford to wait! If you miss the best opportunity for treatment, you may die if you are not careful. Your life is lost!"

"Is it that exaggerated?" Nana questioned with a smile.

"Don't believe it! There is a lady named Fang in the city, and a businessman named Zhou, and... there is also a gentleman named Wen. They are all important to me. During the holiday, I also want to Use strong medicine to attack it and give them some buffer time for future recuperation, otherwise, they may not be able to pass through several levels!"

"Big shot?"

"That's right! Anyway, it's very important to me. You know how much money you can earn by opening a clinic! My mother is not suitable to live in our county. I have to take her to Lijin. She has to take care of herself there. She only has a house. The payment alone is enough for me to drink a pot, so... I have to find a way to make some big money."

"Hey! You are quite ambitious! Listen to what you say, in the future... I will also have to take my parents to Beiqi. Compared with there, the house price in Lijin is more than 10,000 yuan cheaper! We have to think The only way to make more money is."

Both of them had some skills, and while they were chatting and laughing, the slum area arrived.

Bian Mu carefully selected the best shack and simply cleaned up the broken branches and leaves. Both of them had experience in outdoor life. After wandering around for a while, a decent bonfire was quickly built. .

Bian Mu had a fire sickle on his body, and he lit the fire effortlessly.

As the bonfire grew stronger, Bian Mu used a military shovel to quickly set up two firebreaks to prevent sudden wildfires. Wildfires were the most taboo thing when camping in the mountains. Once they became serious, the two of them would bear corresponding criminal liability.

"Here! This crossbow is very easy to use, keep it handy! If you encounter a mountain leopard or something, you can still defend yourself." As he spoke, Bian Mu left the hard crossbow he carried with Nana.

"Go back quickly!"

"OK!" Bian Mu agreed and went up the mountain to collect herbs.

…

When Bian Mu returned to the camping shack, he found that there was no one near the campfire, and Nana wandered around somewhere.

"Nana!..." After identifying the direction of the wind and shaking his dantian, Bian Mu shouted several times.

The echoes in the mountains are loud and distant, and the greetings are heard far away.

…

"Hey...I'm back!" Nana's echo finally came from the southeast.

"Damn! You are so brave! Where are you?" Bian Mu asked with a smile.

"Hey! Not long after you left, a mountain leopard came over there. It was not much bigger than a shepherd dog. It was dry and skinny. I had something like this in my hand. How could I be afraid of it! I chased the two that couldn't be chased away. , I heard you calling me, I was also afraid of getting lost, so I came back quickly and gathered everything?"

"It's all together, and I also got some medicine introduction. Time flies on the mountain. It will probably get dark when we get to the foot of the mountain. It's still cloudy today, so it will get dark even earlier!"

"Then let's pack up and go back quickly!"

"Let's go!" After saying that, Bian Mu started to pack his luggage.

The two chatted and laughed and left Hongnigou.

As soon as the two started their motorcycles, they saw five herb farmers walking into the mountains to collect herbs. They were three men and two women, with an average age of around forty. Three of them were quite familiar with Bian Mu.

Bian Mu rode his motorcycle over to say hello to them, then turned around and asked Nana to hurry down the mountain.

The drug farmers also came here on motorcycles. As soon as Bian Mu and the others arrived at the foot of the mountain, the five people on motorcycles whistled past them.

Feeling unconvinced for a moment, Nana wanted to race with the drug farmers for a while, but Bian Mu quickly chased after her and stopped her.

…

When we got home, it was already 19:48 in the evening. Bian Mu specially invited Nana to his home. Nana knew that Bian Mu was a good cook, so she went happily.

…

After dinner, Bian Mu took Nana back to her house on his motorcycle and returned the motorcycle. After saying a few polite words to the Feng family, Bian Mu walked all the way to the pharmacy to pay his respects to Xiao Liu's family. Bian Mu borrowed a whole batch of Chinese patent medicines. Bian Mu took a taxi home and quickly started making water-honey pills for Zheng Qingkui and his wife. The whole Bian family started to help. Unknowingly, it was already past midnight. …
