Chapter 64

"No, no! I'm familiar with decocting the medicine. I've soaked the medicine. I'll start decocting the medicine in a while!" Uncle Lin shook his hand repeatedly and laughed.

When it was over, I thanked Ding Changsheng again, "Thank you Changsheng, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know there was something wrong with my body!"

"Uncle Lin, you are too polite. I am a doctor. How can I pretend not to see it? A disease like yours is discovered early, with a few injections and two soups, and it will be cured.

However, if it is delayed, there may be big problems.

You still have to pay more attention to your body! Ding Changsheng said with a smile.

"I know! If you don't say it, it's better to be next to the medical center. If you're sick, you'll know it early!" Uncle Lin said with a smile.

"Uncle Lin, how much are these medicine jars?"

"There's no need to pay, a few jars of medicine are worthless!" Uncle Lin waved his hands again and again.

"That's no good. It's not your own factory. You need to pay for the goods. Don't be polite to me. The money can all be paid out of the fund!" Ding Changsheng smiled and rejected Uncle Lin's offer.

I paid Uncle Lin and sent him away.

"Honey, you bought so many medicine jars, we don't have so many cooking utensils! Also, the medicine is decocted on the second floor, and the room is full of medicine smell, it smells so bad!" Just after sending Uncle Lin away, Zhang Xin looked for over here.

"Does it smell bad? Why do I feel the smell of medicine that fills the room? It smells so good!" Ding Changsheng laughed.

"It smells so bad! Go and buy some stoves and come back. I just saw that there is an empty room in the backyard. Let's decoct medicine in the backyard!" Zhou Linlin also came over and suggested to Ding Changsheng.

"Senior, I see that people's hospitals are now using machines to decoct medicine. Why not buy that kind of machine, that would be very convenient." Wang Linna also suggested.

"I know that fully automatic decoction machine, it's really convenient!
But, with that, how do you shoot short videos? Ding Changsheng asked back with a smile.

The current technology is indeed very advanced, and the fully automatic decoction machine is also very convenient.

However, the curative effect of the liquid medicine boiled by the machine is much worse than that of the liquid medicine boiled by the traditional decoction method.

Now we go to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital to get the medicine, and it takes about two hours from the prescription to the medicine, and there are a lot of people waiting in line to get the medicine.

There was simply not enough time to soak.

The soaking of medicinal materials is very critical, most of the medicinal materials are dried, if the dried medicinal materials are not soaked enough, the medicinal ingredients inside will not come out at all.

This is also true, regular Chinese medicine clinics will tell you that the medicine should be decocted at least twice, and the nourishing Chinese medicine should be decocted three times, and then mixed together, so as to ensure full absorption of the medicine.

"Then why don't we buy a set of that kind of machine, and when shooting videos, we use the local method to decoct the medicine, and when patients need to replace the decoction, we use the decoction machine!" Zhang Xin rolled her eyes and smiled coquettishly suggested.

"Machines can't replace humans!" Ding Changsheng thought for a while and shook his head.

He is not a stubborn, stubborn person.

Never rejecting advanced technology, but the automatic decoction machine is still unable to replace the traditional decoction method.

"Why? I see that all hospitals are using decoction machines!"

"So, many people now believe that Chinese medicine is for treating chronic diseases, and Chinese medicine is slow to take effect.

Have you ever thought about the reason for this, except that the properties of the medicinal materials have changed, there is no reason for the machine to decoct the medicine? "Ding Changsheng asked back.

"Also, if you study those medicine decoction machines, they are not suitable for the prescriptions I prescribe. I have prescriptions. The medicines I prescribe are generally four or five kinds of medicines. If there are too many medicines, they will not exceed ten medicines. Some Sometimes it's even one or two medicines.

Moreover, I only prescribe three medicines for each patient, and readjust the prescription according to the development of the disease three days later.

Rather than now, in many traditional Chinese medicines, there are more than a dozen or 20 herbs in a prescription, and it takes seven days to start.

There is a big problem with the decoction machine, that is, the amount of medicine is too small, otherwise there is no way to control the amount of water added.

In fact, these are not critical.

The point is that the decoction machine has no way to adjust the heat.

Many of our traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions need to be divided into strong fire and slow fire when decocting. It is necessary to master the heat first and then slowly.

This kind of heat control is impossible for the decocting machine, he can only guarantee a constant heat.

Also, in our traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, some medicinal materials, such as ginseng need to be decocted alone, keel and oyster need to be decocted first, rhubarb and mint need to be decocted later, and Chuanwu and Aconitum need to be decocted for a long time to remove their toxicity. Can these decoction machines do it? ?

In addition, if the temperature of rhubarb, senna, and morning glory is too high, if the temperature is too high and the decoction time is too long, these medicinal materials will lose their efficacy.

Ordinary patients don't care about the decoction, and think it doesn't matter, just soak it in water and boil it.

But who are we?In Chinese medicine, we cannot close our eyes, cover our ears, and pretend to be confused.

We have studied hard for seven or eight years and dedicated our youth to Chinese medicine. For what?Many of your high school classmates are mothers of one or two children, and you are still studying hard at school, why? "Ding Changsheng put away the smile on his face, and said very formally to the three of Zhang Xin.

Ding Changsheng's serious demeanor made Zhang Xin, Zhou Linlin, and Wang Linna's hearts tremble.

This was the first time they saw Ding Changsheng like this.

But he had to admit that what Ding Changsheng said was right, and this kind of Ding Changsheng was also the most handsome.

"Sister Lin Lin, Xin'er, Lin Na, do you really think that I am paying you such a high salary just for the sake of your beauty and want you to sleep with me?
If that's the case, why should I look far away?In the United States, for $[-] a month, what kind of beauty can I not find?

With this money, I can be a groom every night, and as long as my body can hold on, I can ask ten or eight beautiful college students to sleep with me every day.

Of course, I don't deny it. I came to you because I have some ideas. If you have money, who wouldn't want to have a few confidante friends by your side? "

"Bah! Who wants to be with you!" Ding Changsheng's sudden turn made Zhou Linlin and the three of them spat out with blushing faces.

"Hehe! This is not the point!

The point is, I came to you because I hope you can join me in promoting Chinese medicine! "

"You came to the United States to promote traditional Chinese medicine?" Zhou Linlin couldn't help but sneer.

"Sister Lin Lin, you should have heard the allusion that Chong'er was born outside and Shen was born inside and died, right?

Staying in the country, all kinds of strife, all kinds of seniority, all kinds of internal friction, can we still have the heart to study Chinese medicine?

After 30 or [-] years, when we have the right to speak, can you guarantee that you will not become the person you hate today? Ding Changsheng asked back with a smile.
