"Oh my goodness, one pill is worth a year's salary for me."
The old men looked at Jiang Yan and nodded and shook their heads. Mr. Lu was also shocked and said with emotion:
"Thank you, girl. You have opened a crack in the solid wall surrounding China."
"Yes, China will surely prosper again and let those Western countries see that China not only has a longer history than them, but will also surpass them in national strength and technology in the future."
The old men were very excited. When talking about this, they were more enthusiastic and radical than anyone else.
The old man surnamed Chu asked, "Jiang girl, are you a Chinese medicine practitioner? Did you research this pill yourself?"
Jiang Yan shook her head. "To be precise, I'm not a Chinese medicine practitioner, but a pharmacist. This pill is also based on the shoulders of giants, and it's not entirely my own achievement."
Hearing this, the crowd exclaimed again.
"Pharmacist! Are there really pharmacists in this world?"
When they heard this, they knew there was a great story behind it.
"This is the first time I've heard the word pharmacist. Lao Li, what is the origin of this pharmacist?"
"It has a great history."
Mr. Li sighed and continued to explain: "The focus of Chinese medicine is the disease, and Chinese herbs are used to cure the disease and bring the body to a healthy state."
"Indeed."
Everyone nodded. Of course, they had seen Chinese medicine doctors before and met many excellent Chinese medicine doctors.
"But pharmacists are different. The focus of pharmacists is medicine. They hope to use medicine to make people more in line with the way of heaven."
“Simply put, the goal of Chinese medicine is to restore people to health, while the goal of herbalists is to make a healthy person stronger.”
"If a normal, healthy person scores 60 points, then the pharmacist's goal is to turn that person into 70 points or even 80 or 90 points."
"You mean, it makes people's physical fitness surpass that of ordinary people?"
"Athletes?"
Mr. Li shook his head. “An athlete’s physical fitness can be improved through exercise, but a pharmacist’s goal is to break through human limits.”
"Sometimes I suspect that those extraordinary people in history who are beyond the imagination of ordinary people may be related to pharmacists."
Hearing this, some of the more educated old men were surprised and said, "Beyond the normal level of humans, isn't this what Darwin called evolution?"
Mr. Li nodded.
“That’s about right.
But the evolution that the pharmacist pursues is in line with the laws of nature, so this kind of evolution is an evolution without side effects.
But the road to success is doomed to many failures, and the pharmacist's pursuit is too illusory.
Evolution is bad if it is not good, so as the number of failure cases increased, the ancients believed that pharmacists were devils, and pharmacists gradually disappeared in the long river of history. "
After hearing the old friend's story, everyone suddenly opened the door to a new world and felt very disconnected.
But after looking at Jiang Yan, they had no choice but to believe the facts before them.
Lu Yunsheng also understood. No wonder his wife's master could research such a magical thing as the physical constitution pill. It turned out that this was the pursuit of their lineage.
Old Master Chu looked at Jiang Yan and said, "Jiang girl, you were able to research the beauty pill, so it must be a legacy. Is your master still alive?"
Jiang Yan shook her head again and repeated what she had said many times in front of the Second Regiment and the military district leaders.
The old men sighed after hearing this.
"well!"
"What is this all about?"
"What a pity that such a great medical expert was killed by one of our own..."
"Old Sun, be careful with your words."
Seeing this, Jiang Yan said, "We have lost a lot of things after a century of weakness, but we Chinese are a nation that has been passed down for thousands of years. We have countless excellent history and culture."
"I don't know about the rest, but at least in terms of medicine, I don't think we are worse than Western medicine."
"Take Xiuyan Dan for example. Even if they were given fifty years, they still wouldn't be able to develop a drug with the same efficacy as Xiuyan Dan."
When Jiang Yan said this, she actually wanted to speak up for traditional Chinese medicine.
We don’t need to say how much we value traditional Chinese medicine, but at least we should not suppress it blindly. We should allow excellent old Chinese medicine practitioners to practice medicine and save lives, and pass on their medical skills.
Jiang Yan's words made the masters feel quite emotional.
"Girl Jiang, what you said makes sense. Although our Chinese culture is not all good, it is much better than their Western bandit logic."
"A bunch of shameless bastards, copying our classics, damn it, just changing someone's name and it becomes theirs."
Seeing that what they said was getting more and more outrageous, Mr. Lu quickly spoke up.
"Well, my grandson and his wife are back. I'd like to invite everyone to have dinner at Quanjude."
"Hey, Lao Lu is fine. He's going to bleed a lot today."
Everyone knows that it is useless to say these things. Without a strong national strength, it is impossible to reason with bandits.
Afterwards, Mr. Lu handed the money and bills to the guards of the retirement home and asked them to go to Quanjude to order food.
Jiang Yan's status was special, so it was impossible for her to go to Quanjude to eat in person. Unless there was anything unexpected, the soldiers behind her were too conspicuous.
While they were waiting, a group of old men pulled Jiang Yan and Lu Yunsheng aside to ask them when they would have a baby and whether they wanted to arrange an engagement.
This is Lu Yunsheng's Achilles' heel, so Jiang Yan quickly changed the subject.
"Grandpas, it's a rare visit for you, how about I take your pulse?"
"Take the pulse?"
Everyone paused, and Mr. Lu asked, "Granddaughter-in-law, can your pharmacist also cure diseases?"
Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, "Of course you can, but I'm still inexperienced, but I can still check on minor problems."
"Then let's take a look?"
Everyone was very curious. Jiang Yan was able to develop a beauty pill, so she must be very capable. It would be amazing if she could also cure diseases.
Afterwards, Jiang Yan took the pulse and examined the old men one by one.
She has now basically completed her training as a pharmacist apprentice, and has naturally also learned the basic Chinese medicine techniques of observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation, as well as acupuncture, cupping and the like.
In view of the fact that Chinese medicine practitioners and pharmacists have different names for the same medicinal material, she also asked the military pharmaceutical factory for a complete guide to traditional Chinese medicine. By comparing pictures and texts, she basically knew the different names for the medicinal materials.
Soon, prescriptions with different medical instructions came out, and the old men also got their own prescriptions.
"Grandpas, just follow the doctor's instructions to take the medicine. If you have any questions, you can write to me and I will improve the prescription and dosage according to the changes in the symptoms."
"Don't worry, we will take the medicine according to the doctor's orders."
The old men were very happy.
The effect of the beauty pill is so magical that Jiang Yan is a medical expert among the old men.
After writing the doctor's orders, the soldiers who went to Quanjude to order food came back, and everyone started eating Quanjude's roast duck.
Jiang Yan enjoyed the meal very much. The taste was even more delicious than what she had tasted in later lives.
