Chapter 115 Daqiu Becomes a Disciple
Zhou Yimin didn't know the specific formula of the quick-acting heart-saving pills. After all, it was one of the state secrets in his previous life. How could he know?
Not to mention the quick-acting heart-saving pills, even the formula of Yunnan Baiyao, which is most well-known to everyone, is also a state secret. The Yunnan Baiyao that has been circulated on the market is said to be a reduced version. The ingredients published are actually for reference only.
Therefore, Zhou Yimin could only put forward such a concept and the main components he understood.
How to develop it should be left to professional doctors.
If they can't figure it out, then there's nothing we can do but wait for Professor Zhang to take action.
Chen Baishu was in a very good mood. On the one hand, he was accepting a disciple, and on the other hand, Zhou Yimin provided him with such a good idea, a prescription that could save countless lives. Although it was not very specific, it at least provided a direction, which was very important to him.
When you are in a good mood, the efficiency of seeing a doctor will increase rapidly.
By lunchtime, seven elderly people had already been prescribed medicine.
Chinese medicine is not too expensive these days, and everyone can still afford it. Of course, things like ginseng that are several decades old are another matter, as they have been expensive since ancient times.
"Secretary, our village still needs to work harder!"
When going to Zhou Daqiu's home to attend the apprenticeship ceremony and eat the apprenticeship banquet, Zhou Yimin suddenly said to the old branch secretary.
The old branch secretary was confused.
But he still agreed: "Yes! So I asked the people around the mountain to work harder and build the chicken farm as soon as possible."
He thought that Zhou Yimin might be talking about the mountain where he planned to raise free-range chickens, and that he was not satisfied with the current progress, so he suddenly said this.
Zhou Yimin knew that the old branch secretary had misunderstood.
He smiled and said, "It's not just the chicken farm. Our village is still poor. Look! Some elderly people today are hesitant to see a doctor. In the final analysis, they still don't have money!
I have a plan. When the village collective has money, the village will bear the medical expenses of all the elderly, so that the elderly in our village can dare to receive treatment when they are sick, instead of like today. "
After these words came out, the old branch secretary and the people around him were stunned. Then, everyone's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
If they could achieve this goal, their Zhoujiazhuang would truly be an ideal paradise.
Children don’t have to worry about their studies, and the elderly don’t have to worry about their illnesses. Isn’t this a paradise?
“I’m just afraid we can’t afford it.”
Zhou Yimin: "So, everyone needs to work hard and make more money, otherwise it's all just empty talk. When the village collective has abundant assets, there will be more things we can do.
Not only will we provide free education for children and free medical care for the elderly, but we can also build other facilities and projects that benefit the people.”
Old Party Secretary: “…”
Otherwise, I’ll make this branch secretary position for you.
He was really ashamed that he did not have the same ambition as Zhou Yimin, or he did not dare to think about it.
"Forget it, let's generate income first. When the village has surplus money, we can talk about these things." After saying that, Zhou Yimin quickened his pace and caught up with the old man.
The old branch secretary and the team leader looked at each other and nodded to each other.
Although they didn't say anything, they understood each other. From then on, Zhoujiazhuang listened to Yimin. The village did whatever he said.
Everyone can see that Yimin is a person who truly cares about their village.
"Doctor Chen, please sit inside! Sixteenth brother, please sit inside!" Zhou Daqiu's father Zhou Zhicheng hurriedly welcomed Zhou Yimin and Chen Baishu into the house, and asked his daughter-in-law to make tea.
He also attached great importance to this apprenticeship ceremony and banquet.
The old branch secretary and the others were behind: "..."
Damn it! You only see Doctor Chen and Yimin? Can't you see us?
"Da Qiu, go change into better clothes." Zhou Yimin shouted.
To become a disciple, one must naturally dress properly first.
Zhou Daqiu nodded quickly, then went into his room, took out his best set of clothes and put them on. After changing into his new clothes, he looked much more energetic and had a handsome look.
Chen Baishu nodded with satisfaction.
"According to the rules of the trade, we should worship the ancestor first, but the ancestor's portrait is not here. So, let's worship the great man!" said Chen Baishu.
Nowadays, no matter what ceremonial venue it is, great men can be invited to witness it. For example, at a wedding, people can also worship the great men.
Zhou Yimin secretly praised him in his heart.
This is the current political correctness. As long as we bring up great people, no one will say anything wrong, and no one will be able to find fault with us. No one dares to find fault with this.
Next, you pay homage to the master and offer him a cup of tea.
After the worship, you have to offer gifts to the teacher.
In ancient times, there was the "Six Gifts and Bunch of Repairs". The so-called "Six Gifts and Bunch of Repairs" refers to the six gifts that disciples gave to their masters during the ancient apprenticeship ceremony. They are: celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, and dried lean meat strips.
Times have changed now and gifts can be flexible.
Zhou Daqiu presented two strips of bacon, two cans of yellow peaches, and a can of tea.
Such a gift of apprenticeship is quite important, not only in rural areas but also in cities.
Nowadays, people are hungry and it is difficult to secure food, let alone meat. As for canned yellow peaches, they are also a scarce commodity. Bringing two cans when visiting relatives and friends will make you look good.
Not to mention tea.
The uncle himself only drinks a little bit of Gaosu, and not often. This kind of tea is rarely seen, especially in this packaging, which is obviously a high-end product.
He knew in his heart that it must have been provided by Zhou Yimin.
He didn't believe that this village could produce such tea.
It can be seen that Zhou Yimin attached great importance to this apprenticeship, or in other words, he was very concerned about his new apprentice.
Originally according to his training plan, he intended to first temper Zhou Daqiu's temper, let him do more work, and then start teaching him real skills after a while.
But since Zhou Yimin values it so much, let’s not do that.
Besides, with these three gifts for becoming a disciple, he must also pay attention and teach well.
The happiest people were undoubtedly Zhou Daqiu's family, as they were going to have a doctor in their family.
"I still have to see patients in a while, so I won't drink. Please feel free to do as you please! Drink as much as you want!" Chen Baishu apologized to everyone, showing great self-control.
After hearing this, the old branch secretary and his friends felt embarrassed to urge them to drink.
After all, they still need to see a doctor! And they are treating people from their village. If he gets drunk and makes a wrong diagnosis, then the people in their village will be the ones who suffer.
"Use tea instead of wine, use tea instead of wine." Chen Baishu continued.
"Okay, let's drink. Doctor Chen, please feel free to drink." Zhou Zhicheng raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Then, they toasted Zhou Yimin. This toast had to be made. If it weren't for Zhou Yimin's help, Daqiu wouldn't have had the opportunity to learn from him.
Since the teacher doesn't drink, Zhou Daqiu naturally doesn't dare to drink even a drop.
That will lower your impression in the teacher's mind.
"Grandpa, don't drink so much, I'm going to tell grandma." Zhou Yimin said to his grandfather.
The old man is allowed to drink, but the amount he drinks must be controlled.
