After carefully reading the introduction on the packaging box of Yangming Pills, and checking on the Internet whether the so-called female academician endorsement was true or not, Uncle Huang decided to buy a box and try it out.
After carefully reading the introduction on the packaging box of Yangming Pills, and checking on the Internet whether the so-called female academician endorsement was true or not, Uncle Huang decided to buy a box and try it out.
As people get older, they always pay more attention to health preservation, and it is always inevitable to buy some health care products.
The same is true of Uncle Huang, but he has always believed that he is not the kind of confused old man who will not be deceived by false advertisements, and can be regarded as a rational consumer.
The reason why I want to buy Yangming Pills is mainly because the spokesperson of Yangming Pills is a female academician.
Such a product, even if it is ineffective, probably won't eat bad people.
Uncle Huang took out the money, spent two hundred knives in silent mourning yuan cash in a very old-fashioned way, and sold two boxes of Yangming Pills, and then left the pharmacy with his things.
After going out, he wobbled towards the park.
On the way to the park, you have to pass through a relatively quiet area with few pedestrians.
At this time, it is the time for normal people to go to work, and there are fewer people on the street.
Walking through a junction.
Suddenly, from the alley on the side of the intersection, a black man wearing a spacious coat suddenly jumped out, and said to Uncle Huang in a very black-style tone: "Wait a minute, old guy."
Uncle Huang frowned, and stopped in a panic.
The black man was tall, with one of his hands in his pocket, somewhat in silhouette holding a pistol.
Although Uncle Huang has heard that many black people always use fake guns to scare people, he still dare not move. After all, he is so old that he cannot fight or run. Even if the opponent does not have a gun, he has no resistance at all. Strength, so simply cooperate a little, so as not to hurt yourself.
"Young man, what do you want to do? Relax and don't mess around."
Uncle Huang didn't dare to move, but he reminded the other party not to mess around.
The black man kept scanning his surroundings, and said in his mouth, "Quickly, take out the money on your body."
Uncle Huang quickly took out his wallet, took out the remaining two hundred knives in front of the blacks, and said, "I only have so much on me, take it."
The black man took the money without counting it, and stuffed it all into his other pocket, as if he still had something to say, after glancing at Uncle Huang, he suddenly pointed to the thing in Uncle Huang's hand: "What is that? "
Uncle Huang glanced at it, and he was holding the Yangming Pill in his hand, so he replied, "This is my medicine."
"medicine?"
The black man took a look at the exquisite packaging of Yangming Pills, and said, "Old guy, bring it here and show me."
"It's really my medicine."
Uncle Huang had no choice but to pass the Yangming Wan over, but he still explained: "This is Xia Guo's medicine, I just bought it."
The black man took the life-saving pill, looked at it for a while, and said, "This medicine is mine now, old guy, let's go!"
The packaging of Yangming Pills is bilingual in Chinese and English, and the English is specially translated by people here. It is very authentic and guaranteed to be understood by Americans.
Although the black man didn't quite understand the names of some medicines, he still knew the efficacy of Yangming Pills, so he withdrew them immediately.
Uncle Huang wanted to say something and wanted to return his medicine, but he glanced at the black man's pocket where the gun was hidden, and finally walked away quickly without saying anything.
He could only consider himself unlucky, it was really unlucky that the Yangming Pill that he had just bought for two hundred silent mourning knives was snatched away like this.
The black man glanced at Yangmingwan, turned around and walked back into the alley.
In order to prevent the old man of Xia descent from calling the police just now, he quickly climbed over the low wall behind him after entering the alley, walked directly to another street, mixed into the crowd, and walked away in a blink of an eye.
His hand, which had been in his pocket all this time, finally took it out.
He didn't have a gun in his pocket, just as Uncle Huang had guessed before, he was just posing with a pistol with his hands to scare people.
Fortunately, he robbed an old man, otherwise it would not have been so smooth.
More than two hundred knives is not much, but it can be used as an emergency for him.
The black man finally returned to the place where he lived. It was a shabby old apartment, and he and his family rented this apartment.
Most of the people living in the apartment are black people, and there are always some well-dressed people wandering around. The law and order here is not good.
Opening the door and walking in, the black man greeted an old man in a wheelchair in the living room: "Grandma, I'm back."
"William, why are you back so early today, don't you have to work?"
The old man's voice was a little weak, and he asked about his grandson.
William paused and said, "The factory is not busy today, and the boss has cut our working hours, so half of the people have stopped working."
In fact, he only said half of what he said. A few days ago when he heard that the boss was going to cut working hours, he had a fight with a few co-workers, and finally hit the boss, so he was fired, and the boss even reserved the right to sue him. Wages are lost.
And today happened to be the time to pay the rent, the more than two hundred knives I grabbed just now, plus the little meager savings from before, should be able to handle it.
William has only one relative, his grandma. His parents died of taking drugs, and it was his grandma who brought him up since he was very young.
Although the growing environment was not good, and his life has been struggling on the poverty line, but because his grandmother took care of him since he was a child, he did not become a street gangster, but entered a factory after graduating from high school.
Everything was fine at first, but now... he lost his job, and he didn't want his elderly grandma to worry too much, so he could only find a way to solve it by himself—that is, the scene of the robbery before.
The old man didn't know the real situation, but he couldn't help being a little worried when he heard his grandson say that the factory owner had cut working hours: "The current situation is really bad. The TV news said that the unemployment rate is getting higher and higher. You have to be careful."
"Don't worry, grandma, don't worry!"
William could only comfort him in this way, hugging the old man's head and kissing him.
Then, he thought for a while, took out the life-saving pills, and said to the old man, "Grandma, what do you think I bought for you?"
"What?"
The old man was a little curious.
Although Mucheng Pharmaceutical has specially designed a new package for the American market, this package still has a strong "exotic style" for Americans. After taking the Yangming Pill, the old man looked at it curiously. stand up.
William said: "It seems that something for the elderly can make the body better."
He originally wanted to find a pharmacy to sell these two boxes of Yangming Pills.
But thinking about it, it was Xia Guo's medicine after all, probably only Xia Guo's pharmacy was willing to accept it, and he had just snatched the medicine from Xia Guo's old man, and he didn't want Xia Guo's pharmacy to sell the stolen goods, so he decided to stay.
"Is this useful?"
The old man asked while looking at the instructions of Yangmeiwan.
"It should work, you can try it."
"good!"
The old man nodded, and put the Yangming Pill aside casually.
William didn't care either. After thinking for a while, he got up and went out. He was going to talk to some good buddies to see if the factory where they worked needed to recruit people.
…
A week passed.
William still couldn't find a job, which made him feel a little anxious. Now that the unemployment rate in the entire United States is a bit high, it is not easy to find a stable job with good salary.
After another day of wandering, but found nothing, William returned home wearily.
Opening the door and entering the house, he was taken aback for a moment, but saw his grandma walking slowly around the house, leaning on the sofa.
"Grandma..."
William was a little unresponsive. You must know that grandma couldn't walk normally due to rheumatism, so she needed to sit in a wheelchair.
This has been going on for almost five years now, and it's getting worse with no signs of getting better.
Unexpectedly, today, the old man was able to stand up from the wheelchair. Although he was walking with the support of something, it was also incredible.
When the old man saw his grandson come back, he also had a very excited smile on his face: "William, I can go again."
William slowly came back to his senses and asked, "How did this happen? Grandma, your leg... is it alright?"
The old man nodded excitedly: "I don't know what's going on, it's just that in the past two days, I feel that my legs don't hurt and are getting stronger, so I tried it, and I didn't expect to be able to stand up... Well, The doctor said that I would never be able to walk again, but it was amazing that I could stand up now."
William watched his grandma move slowly, and couldn't help asking: "Are you all right? How is it possible? What's going on here?"
The old man thought for a while, then pointed to something on the small table beside the sofa: "Maybe it's because of it."
"Um?"
William turned his head, glanced at the thing, and was startled again.
On the small table, there is Yangmingwan.
It was only then that he remembered that it was written on the package of this Xia Guo medicine that it was effective for inconvenient legs and feet.
He didn't care about this at all before. Anyway, he snatched something back and gave it to the old man casually, so he didn't care about it anymore.
Unexpectedly, after the old man took it for a week, it really seemed to work.
Is the medicinal effect of this Xia Guo medicine really so miraculous
William felt a little unbelievable, it almost made him feel like he was deep in a dream.
The old man continued: "Although I don't know if it is the effect of this Xia Guo medicine, but I have only taken this kind of medicine recently. The medicine prescribed by the doctor... Well, I haven't taken it for a long time. Sometimes when it hurts Just take painkillers.
After taking this Xia Guo medicine, I feel that I can sleep better, and I can sleep until dawn every day, and I am very energetic.
In the past, I would go to the toilet in the middle of the night...it was so inconvenient, I couldn't fall asleep every time I went to the toilet, but after taking this Xia Guo medicine, it seemed that I didn't go to the toilet much at night, even if I came back from the toilet Can also fall asleep...”
William listened quietly to the old man's rambling, couldn't help picking up the box of Yangmingwan, and looked at it again.
The United States is a country without medical insurance. Usually, only employees of large companies can obtain medical insurance, or rich people can purchase medical insurance for themselves.
So in this country, poor people can't afford medical care at all.
Some minor illnesses are okay, but if they are serious illnesses or chronic diseases that require long-term treatment, it is simply beyond the reach of ordinary families.
Families like William, to put it cruelly, basically have to fend for themselves if they get sick.
Minor ailments don't need to be treated, just take some antipyretic painkillers and you will be fine.
Not to mention serious illnesses, which cannot be cured at all.
Therefore, rheumatism like the elderly requires long-term treatment and care, which they simply cannot afford.
The old man stopped taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor long ago. When the pain is unbearable, he can only rely on painkillers to resist it. As a result, the old man's condition is deteriorating and will never get better.
They couldn't afford a caregiver at home, and William usually had to work outside, so he couldn't take care of the elderly at all.
The old man can only rely on a wheelchair to solve things by himself, such as going to the toilet, bathing and cooking, for the old man who can only sit in a wheelchair, it is always a torture.
But they have no way to change, as if they can only continue like this, until they are cornered by life.
But now, to William's surprise and joy, things seem to have turned around suddenly.
This Xia Guoyao turned out to be a turning point.
Let the old man continue to take this medicine, so that the situation will continue to improve, this is what William thought of in an instant.
But as his mind continued to open up, he thought of more.
This medicine is so effective, and there are huge business opportunities in it.
William has always lived at the bottom, and the people and things he came into contact with all happened in the bottom circle.
He knows a lot of families like his, old people like his grandma.
This Xia Guo medicine is so effective, if he can sell it to other people, wouldn't he be able to make a lot of money
Moreover, this can also help many old people like his grandma, which is really a good thing that can make money and fame.
This made William excited for a while, as if he saw the silent mourning knives flying towards him.
As a black man, he also has that kind of restless personality. The restlessness of doing what he says seems to flow in his blood, so that as long as he has an idea, he will immediately put it into action without thinking too much about it. .
"Grandma, I'll go out first!"
Holding the health pills in his arms, William hurried out of the house.
He rushed to a pharmacy opened by immigrants from the Xia Kingdom immediately, and after asking whether Yangming Pills were sold, he asked directly, "Do you know where this medicine can be wholesaled from?"
The pharmacy owner was a little wary: "Why do you ask this?"
William was very direct and didn't hide it at all: "I want to buy a lot of this medicine. I think this medicine is very good."
The pharmacy owner frowned: "You want to sell this? You can buy it from me, and I can give you a discount."
William shook his head: "No, no, no, I want to know where I can get this medicine, and I want to sell it myself."
