Chapter 159 Grandma Tu's Artemisinin



Chen Xia didn't care why the old woman's face turned red and white. He deliberately acted greedy, just to take this opportunity to see where their jade was hidden so that he would have a chance to cause trouble.

Otherwise, where can we find the hiding place of jade in the vast mountains?

"Madam, I'm not interested in money. I have a hobby, I particularly like jade, so you just need to give me a few pieces of jade."

Du Enqin was very surprised. "You don't want money? You only want jade?"

Malanian beside him quickly added, "Aku and Yan Jinqie said that this doctor never charges for seeing patients in Ruili. He only wants jadeite, and he only wants glass-type or high-ice jadeite."

Du Enqin wanted to laugh in her heart. How much could jade be worth? So she didn't want to embarrass the young doctor in front of her, and even wanted to tease him:

"It's easy to get jade, but I have a request. You can only take as much jade as you can carry on your back. I'll give you as much as you can carry on your back. How do you do that?"

Chen Xia thought that this old woman was really stingy. Jade is simply a stone and it is very heavy.

If it is processed jade jewelry, one person can carry back a lot. But if it is just raw jade, how much can he take away if he is allowed to take it?

"Okay, it's a deal, but I need to go see Feicui first. Don't worry about the commander's sick wife, I'll take care of her."

"Haha, what's going on? You were 60% sure just now, but now you're 100% sure?"

Chen Xia smiled awkwardly: "Isn't this true that money makes the world go round? I'm just a little devil, the commander and his wife are the masters."

Hahaha, the two people, each with their own ulterior motives, laughed, and on the surface they seemed so harmonious.

"Mala Nian, take this Doctor Chen to rest for a while. We will begin treatment tomorrow. If Doctor Chen's treatment proves effective, I promise to open our jade warehouse for you to choose from."

Chen Xia achieved his goal, but it was not convenient to provoke the old woman. Menopausal women have strange tempers, so it is better not to provoke them.

"I understand, ma'am." After receiving the order, Maranyan took Chen Xia and left the second floor.

By this time, Ge Danwei had recovered from his illness and was slowly coming to his senses. He looked at Du Enqin beside him and asked weakly:

"Madam, do you really think this young doctor can cure my illness?"

Du Enqin wiped Ge Danwei's sweat and said coldly:

"There's no other way now. We can't find a doctor in Yangon, and the doctors in northern Myanmar are all local doctors. They can't even tell me what the disease is, let alone prescribe medicine. I heard that this young doctor is very famous in Ruili, and judging from his tone just now, he should be confident."

Ge Danwei closed his eyes and said, "You just don't know whether to live or die."

"Haha, I'm not afraid of his greed. If he wants hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars, I really can't bear to give it to him. But he wants jadeite, which we have plenty in our warehouse. He can take whatever he wants. In the end, he can't take it with him anyway."

Both husband and wife have the same idea in mind. They will try to coax you with kind words first, and once the disease is cured, they will have no say in it anymore.

The next day, Chen Xia started treatment.

Although Chen Xia could diagnose malaria, he had no idea how to treat this rare infectious disease in China in later generations.

If it weren't for the need to take the professional qualification exam and the news that Grandma Tu won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, it would be difficult for him to determine which drugs in the space pharmacy were effective for treating malaria.

There are many medicine boxes in front of Chen Xia now, including artemisinin, mefloquine, chloroquine, and primaquine.

Regular treatment is based on the different types of malaria, the severity of the disease, the patient's tolerance, and the presence or absence of underlying diseases.

So what should we do now?

Suddenly, an idea struck him. "How about using them all? There must be one that suits the commander, right?"

If Ren Yuanfei knew that his apprentice was using such an unscientific treatment plan without considering the side effects and harm to the patients, he would beat this quack to death.

But Chen Xia couldn't care less. What he wanted was to see the results as quickly as possible. As for any adverse reactions the commander would have after taking the medicine, what did it have to do with him?

People are all suffering from this disease, and they still want him to repay kindness with hatred? Repay evil with virtue?

How to repay evil with kindness?

Chen Xia still prefers the latter sentence: "Repay evil with justice, and repay kindness with kindness."

When dealing with people, one must clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment. Those who cannot distinguish between them are fools. Chen Xia does not like to make friends with such people.

So Dr. Chen started the first day of treatment, giving injections and taking medicine, which made Du Enqin smile the whole time.

She was overjoyed because the young doctor actually brought a full set of medicines and syringes, and even prepared sterile cotton balls. It looked very professional and convincing.

If she knew that Chen Xia was using her husband as a guinea pig, I wonder if she would still be able to laugh.

After two days of treatment, the commander's illness had improved significantly. He no longer had obvious chills and fever every day, and his spirits had recovered a lot.

The old woman was so happy that she asked Maranian to take Chen Xia to see their jade warehouse first. One reason was to let him see the strength of the Kanguo Army, and the other was to induce Chen Xia to treat the patient with all his heart and use all his skills.

She thought she had a good understanding of human nature and could use Chen Xia's greedy nature to her advantage.

Unexpectedly, all this was exactly what Chen Xia wanted. He was worried about how to find a jade warehouse.

If he really cured the commander's malaria and he became useless, he would not only lose the jade, but his life would be in danger.

Maranian took Chen Xia out of the villa and instructed A Ku and Yan Jinqie who were waiting at the door:

"You two follow along. We'll take Doctor Chen to see the jade warehouse. Madam said we'll let Doctor Chen choose for himself. He can take as much as he chooses."

Yan Jinqie was very happy. As long as Chen Xia could cure the commander's illness, the pressure on him would be gone. Then he could bring Chen Xia back to the village safely, and he believed that the punishment would not be too severe.

Didn’t Doctor Chen just go abroad to see a doctor and bring back jade? How guilty can he be?

Besides, he was familiar with Kanguojun’s jade warehouse. He was Kanguojun’s agent in Ruili, and he often went in and out of the jade warehouse here as if it were his own home.

So he wanted to help Chen Xia and take away some of the best jadeite so that he could speak well of him in the village.

The four people got on a jeep, drove around the military camp, and came to a cave. There was a natural cave inside, which they developed into a natural jadeite raw stone warehouse.

Stored inside are the raw jadeite stones that have been accumulated over the years and cannot be sold, as well as some processed clear materials.

Maranian said to the soldier guarding the door, "Open the door."

As the door slowly opened, the warehouse inside was revealed...
