When Mrs. Cao and Gu Shiba Niang returned to Peng Yizhen's pharmacy, Peng Yizhen was already waiting here.
"Sister, how is the tile market here?" he laughed.
"Better than our county." Gu Shiba Niang praised her sincerely and said meaningfully, "Everything sells very well..."
Peng Yizhen understood what she meant and laughed heartily, and said pointedly: "Then I will ask you to take more care of our business here."
After saying that, both of them smiled.
"Ten pounds of Polygala tube, twenty cents per pound, this is two hundred cents," Peng Yizhen happily calculated the amount and handed the money to Cao, "Mother, please keep it."
Mrs. Cao and Gu Shiba Niang thanked each other and did not dare to stay any longer because of the long journey, so they left and got up.
"By the way, Mr. Peng, the medicine market master mentioned Mr. Dong. Who is Mr. Dong?" Gu Shiba Niang asked curiously before going out.
"Mr. Dong is selling medicine today?" Peng Yizhen asked, but he did not answer her directly, but smiled, "My dear lady, what do we doctors fear most?"
What do doctors fear most? This problem is very simple. What I am most afraid of is that I will not be able to treat difficult and complicated diseases, or that the disease cannot be cured.
After listening to her answer, Peng Yizhen shook his head and said: "We are not afraid of difficult and complicated diseases. Ever since Shennong dared to taste herbs for the world, what we doctors are not afraid of the most are diseases we have never seen before. Don't say we are not afraid of them." I wish I could see it, and if I see it, I dare to go up and have a taste..."
Although I don't know what his inner plan was, the way Peng Yizhen spoke was bold and interesting. Gu Shiba Niang couldn't help but smile, and even Mrs. Cao couldn't help laughing.
"Oh, what are you afraid of? You are most afraid of people calling yourself a quack." Ms. Cao couldn't help but ask.
"It means the same thing...but what we are most afraid of is being called a quack for no reason other than ourselves." Peng clapped his hands and said, "Hey, that's...really damn bad luck..."
This doctor is really vulgar... Mr. Cao and Gu Shiba Niang couldn't help but lower their heads and look at each other.
"Hey...that's rude..." Peng Yizhen then apologized, then returned to the topic and said, "What we are most afraid of is medicine."
medicine
Mrs. Cao and Gu Shiba Niang looked puzzled.
"Let's put it this way, we identify the right symptoms and prescribe prescriptions, but even though some patients took the medicine for ten days and a half, their condition did not improve at all. What do you think everyone should say?" Peng Yizhen asked.
"The doctor is useless." The boy on the side interjected with a smile.
Peng Yizhen sneered, shook his head gloomily, nodded again, but said nothing.
"It's medicine!" Gu Shiba Niang's eyes lit up and said, "It's just that the medicine is not effective!"
Peng Yizhen nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, sighed, and said: "We have never met a sensible person like the little lady..." He also sighed, "Not only talking about others, we didn't also do it in the beginning. You know, I just thought that I was not good at learning, and I suffered a lot and was scolded, but in the end I found out that I was taking the blame for this black-hearted dog medicine!"
Gu Shiba Niang heard this interestingly, and did not say anything about leaving, nor did she feel any pain in her feet. She blinked curiously and waited for him to continue.
"For example, I have a patient who suffers from plum core qi. It is natural to soothe the liver, relieve stagnation, promote qi and disperse stagnation, so I prescribed Banxia Houpu Decoction..." Peng Yizhen recalled the past and shook his head.
Gu Shiba Niang did not understand medical science, so she listened to him carefully. One of the three people stood inside the threshold, and the two stood outside the threshold. They talked lively and listened seriously. Passers-by looked at it and were particularly curious.
"...The woman took it for half a month, but her condition not only did not improve, but got worse. She was so frightened that she quickly found another doctor to see her. She was so angry that she came to my door and scolded me. We don't understand what happened. What's going on? I just thought I was wrong, blamed myself and was unconvinced. I licked my face and asked other doctors for details of diagnosis and treatment. It turned out that the diagnosis was the same, and the medicines prescribed were the same, but the other doctor took them. Okay, do you think it’s strange or not? It’s frustrating or not…” Peng Yizhen clapped his big hands and said with a depressed look.
"That's really strange." Cao said.
"Actually, it's not strange. It's not strange at all after knowing the reason," Peng Yizhen said, waving his hands. "But I was also very strange at the time. I couldn't eat or sleep at night. I didn't believe this evil, so I followed it despite the scolding. That woman, watching her prepare medicine, boil it and take it, insisted on finding out what was different. She stayed on guard for three days and three nights, and was scolded so badly that she was almost sent to prison..."
Gu Shiba Niang couldn't help but smile, this Peng Yizhen was quite a stubborn person.
"What happened next? Did you notice any difference?" she asked.
Peng patted his thigh, "My hard work paid off. I actually found it. Guess what?"
"What's going on?" Cao's Gu Shiba Niang and the boy asked at the same time.
Peng Yizhen was very satisfied with the effect of his storytelling. He chuckled. He pretended to be mysterious and piqued the curiosity of the three of them for a moment, and then he said slowly: "In the end, it was me and the woman's husband who had a fight. The medicine was spilled on my feet. It was so hot that I sat down on the ground and discovered the problem. "
"What did you find?" The boy and Gu Shiba Niang asked hurriedly.
Peng Yizhen smiled and grabbed a handful of medicine from behind the counter, "Look, this is Qing Ban Xia..."
The boy recognized it, but Gu Shiba Niang vaguely recognized it after thinking about it.
"Do you know how this Qing Ban Xia is made?" Peng Yizhen asked with a bit of mystery.
Ordinary small pharmacies cannot afford a concocting master, so they sell medicines directly from drug stores or other pharmacies. Although they both seem to deal with medicinal materials, doctors and concocting masters are two distinct professions, separated by mountains.
Gu Shiba Niang hesitated, frowned, thought for a while, and said tentatively: "It seems to be soaked in water, boiled with vitriol, and then sliced..."
Peng Yizhen didn't expect her to say it, so he couldn't help but look surprised, "Hey, little lady..." He looked at her thoughtfully, "It seems that the little lady is not new to the industry, but she has some foundation..."
Gu Shiba Niang smiled and said nothing.
"Yes, that's exactly the case, but don't underestimate the soaking and boiling. There is a lot of detail in it," Peng Yizhen continued, spreading out the Qingbanxia in his hand, "It takes fourteen days of soaking in winter, and in summer It needs to be soaked for seven days. When soaking, change the water at most twice a day. Hey, don't change it yet, and don't change it more. Then taste it. It has a spicy taste. Also, the spicy taste can't be too strong. Once it is light, you can then add alum stone to cook it. The cooking temperature is also very particular..."
Gu Shiba Niang was mesmerized by what she was listening to, and her ears were perked up for fear of missing a sentence.
"...Listen, is this a very simple thing? Can anyone do it well?" Peng Yizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Damn it, the pinellia ternata I worked in the drug store at that time, let alone anything special. It’s winter and summer, and I haven’t soaked it for three days in total. I just boiled it and cut it into slices as thick as the palm of my hand... Not to mention eating three pairs of this kind of pinellia, even if you eat it for a year, you won’t be able to cure the disease!”
Oh, that’s it. Gu Shiba Niang nodded silently, she understood.
"Little lady, do you think this medicine is important? Are we doctors afraid of it?" Peng Yizhen looked at Gu Shiba Niang and asked.
Gu Shiba Niang nodded, it was so important.
"Mr. Dong is a master of pharmaceuticals. The medicines he handles are 20 to 30% more effective than those prepared by others. Do you think such a person is like a god or bodhisattva in the eyes of doctors like us?" Peng Yizhen said with a smile, "Do you think a person like this deserves to be called master by people in our industry? Do you think the medicinal materials of such a person are worth grabbing at a high price?"
"It's worth it." Gu Shiba Niang nodded without hesitation, it was so worth it.
