At seven o'clock on Saturday morning, Jiang Ning took Xue Yuantong to the hospital.
It’s completely fine for Aunt Gu to stay in the ward alone at night, and she will be discharged from the hospital in the next two days.
At 8 o'clock, the attending doctor came to the ward and looked at Aunt Gu's condition:
"Are your fingers still numb?"
"Still a little." said Aunt Gu.
"I'll recover slowly later. Fortunately, the radial nerve damage is not serious, otherwise my fingers wouldn't even be able to do simple grasping."
"Doctor, when will the surgery to remove the steel plate be done?" Aunt Gu asked. After the steel plate was installed in her arm, she would have to undergo another surgery to remove the steel plate after the bone heals. It would be very painful.
"It is not recommended to remove it. The material of the steel plate installed for you can stay on the bone for life."
"You have a mid-humeral fracture, which is most likely to damage the radial nerve. After the plate surgery, the radial nerve has been displaced. When the plate is removed one or two years later, the nerve is likely to be adhered to the plate. If you are not careful, the radial nerve may be damaged."
The doctor talked about some things, and then said:
"The wound is healing well. You will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, Aunt Gu and Xue Yuantong were delighted. Being hospitalized was indeed too troublesome. The place was cramped, crowded, and noisy, which was very inconvenient.
The attending physician asked again: "Have you bought the stent?"
Jiang Ning said: "We'll find someone to get it ourselves."
The attending physician was stunned for a moment: "Things bought outside may not be suitable and may affect recovery."
Jiang Ning said: "I have a relative who has some connections, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to get it."
"Okay, wait until your stent arrives and I'll take a look. If it really doesn't work, I'll put a cast on you." The attending physician didn't say much.
After the doctor left, the old man in bed 37 started talking nonsense again:
"Just wait and see. When your brace arrives, he'll start making excuses again. If I were you, I'd put on a cast. I promise I won't buy it."
After a while, the doctor in charge of patient 37 came over, and the old man quickly went up to greet him:
"Doctor, you're here!"
"You will be discharged the day after tomorrow. Your lumbar spine will need protection after you are discharged. You should wear protective gear."
The old man was stunned. He didn't expect that he would also need protective gear.
"I'll have someone come over there this afternoon. You can talk to the staff."
The old man's face changed when he saw the doctor leave.
In the afternoon, the courier called and Jiang Ning went to the hospital gate to pick up the brace. He took it to the ward and unpacked it. The brace is like an arm guard. When worn, it can protect the arm and prevent injury. It also allows free adjustment of the angle for exercise.
Jiang Ning cast a spell to remove the dust and odor on the surface.
The lady on the opposite bed said, "It's exactly the same one that the guy with the broken bone bought before. How much did it cost?"
Jiang Ning gave Aunt Gu a look and said:
"Two thousand yuan, two hundred yuan cheaper than theirs."
He didn't say he bought it for 200 yuan. This kind of thing shouldn't be brought up in public. Just think you got a good deal.
If it were exposed, it might affect other people's interests, not to mention that Aunt Gu is still in the hospital.
There will also be patients who ask him for help to buy the glasses, and even if there are problems with the glasses later, the patients will get angry with you and think that what you recommended is nonsense.
This is like recommending a mobile phone to an acquaintance. If you recommend the phone to him and he has problems using it, he might blame you, thinking that the phone you recommended was not good.
So much so that later when someone asked Jiang Ning to recommend a mobile phone, Jiang Ning would usually just tell them to buy an iPhone. Those people who used other brands of mobile phones and had problems would think that there was something wrong with the phone, but when there was a problem with the iPhone, they would think it was their own problem.
"Two thousand? It's about the same price as the hospital."
The people in the ward didn't ask too many questions. It was two hundred dollars cheaper, so there was no need.
After chatting for a while, the man in the peaked cap from yesterday came in and said arrogantly:
"Bed 36, have you made up your mind?"
"Huh? Have you bought it?" He stared at the brace on Aunt Gu's arm, feeling incredible.
Jiang Ning stepped forward and said, "My uncle is a doctor at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anshi City. I got it from him."
The man in the baseball cap was unhappy when he heard that the other party had connections with the hospital, but he didn't bother him any more. They could use the threat of monopoly to sell at a high price, but they would never dare to force the sale.
Jiang Ning didn't say anything. This was within his expectations. Nowadays, there are rarely such lawless situations.
"Bed 37 is you, right?" The man in the baseball cap looked at the old man.
"It's me."
"The doctor should have told you that you need a waist brace. Our company's waist braces have a uniform price of two thousand five hundred. If you want to buy them, I can measure the size for you now." The man in the baseball cap took out a tape measure.
Uncle: “Can it be cheaper?”
Maybe it was because Jiang Ning bought the bracket from somewhere else that made the cap a little hesitant, so he didn't act too arrogant:
"I'll give you a discount of 200 at most. The price is 2,300. I think you are a honest person, so I'm giving you this price."
"Cheaper."
"It's really not possible. The company has a clear rule that I can only take a commission. Even if it's cheaper, this order will be in vain."
After a while of arguing, the old man agreed and paid the deposit.
After measuring the size of the baseball cap, he gave him a note and asked him to keep it.
When the peaked cap left, the old man said:
"Hey, that's how hospitals are, you pay to buy peace of mind."
…
Aunt Gu was discharged from the hospital on Saturday morning.
Jiang Ning called a taxi and went all the way back home.
Aunt Gu stood in front of the bungalow with her arm in a sling, and she felt as if she was in another world.
Xue Yuantong unlocked the door and helped her into the house.
While Aunt Gu was in the hospital, the owner of the restaurant came once, bought a few boxes of milk and fruit, and paid Aunt Gu's salary. Before leaving, he gave her a red envelope of one thousand yuan and said frankly that they were a small restaurant and were short of staff and urgently needed to fill the position.
Aunt Gu knew what her boss meant, which meant she would lose her job.
It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. She had to rest at home for at least two months before she could go back to work. It was not surprising that she was fired.
So during this period of time, Aunt Gu stayed at home to recuperate.
Jiang Ning estimated that with the medicinal effects of Lingzhu Liquid, if used on an ordinary person, Aunt Gu should be able to recover in less than half a month.
Xue Yuantong's family spent a lot of money on this illness. Now that they have no job or income, they will probably have a hard time in the future.
Jiang Ning did have a lot of money, so Shao Shuangshuang used the bald group to easily sell out one hundred bottles of Changqing Liquid. The wealthy bosses in the group alone took up half of the share.
After Shao Shuangshuang sold all the products, she transferred 200,000 yuan to him, and kept the remaining money as the development fund of Changqing Liquid.
Changqing Liquid developed rapidly. During the beauty qualification certification period, Shao Shuangshuang mobilized almost all of her connections and used money to speed up the process. Finally, she succeeded the day before yesterday.
Then the official sale can be carried out.
Shao Shuangshuang urged Jiang Ning to bring the Evergreen Liquid quickly. Many wealthy bald users had praised it after using it. It was the first time that Shao Shuangshuang realized that there were so many rich people who paid for the Evergreen Liquid at ten thousand yuan a bottle without blinking an eye.
Jiang Ning came to the kitchen and activated the magic array. The spiritual power guided the herbs in the box into the magic array, and then the spiritual array extracted the herbs on its own.
He injected a stream of spiritual energy, which was enough to keep the spiritual formation running for an hour.
Jiang Ning dragged Xue Yuantong out of the house. After staying in the hospital for a week, Xue Yuantong visibly lost two kilograms.
After arriving at the market, Jiang Ning bought some beef, spare ribs, and picked out some vegetarian dishes. Xue Yuantong wanted to pay, but Jiang Ning refused.
After returning home, Jiang Ning found that his iPhone 5S was out of battery. Nowadays, the battery capacity of mobile phones is generally very small and the charging speed is very slow.
It was not until the year after OPPO launched the slogan "Charge for five minutes, talk for two hours" that charging began to be taken seriously by major manufacturers.
However, the iPhone's annoying "5x5" charger has been around for several years.
Jiang Ning was thinking, he practiced the 'Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Body Tempering Technique', and his body could generate electricity at any time, could he use it to charge his cell phone
He believes that as long as the surrounding current power is adjusted to match the charging standard of the mobile phone battery, and then a stable current is continuously output, charging should be possible.
Xue Yuantong was a little unhappy because he didn't get the chance to pay. Jiang Ning said:
"Please help me prove a formula later."
"Okay!" Xue Yuantong's mood turned from gloomy to sunny, finally he was not eating and drinking for free.
So Jiang Ning spent an entire afternoon to determine a formula, which he named the "Yuan Er" formula.
He handed the draft paper to Xue Yuantong: "Use the public notice table I gave you to interpret it."
Then, the 'Yuan Er Formula' was formally established.
Inside the room, Jiang Ning sat on a chair, holding an iPhone 5S, imitating others, stimulating electricity, and directing the current in his palm to the charging port.
The phone buzzed and the screen lit up, indicating that it was charging.
Jiang Ning was very satisfied and no longer had to worry about his phone running out of battery.
