Chapter 886: He is not giving in.
Coming out of the hospital, the child's crying echoed behind me.
Bian Zhi got into the car without even turning his head.
The car had just stopped in front of the Chinese Medicine Hospital when people from the drugstore opposite hurried over. They were the newly appointed management of the drugstore.
"Dean Bian, I have something to tell you."
Bian Zhi nodded, and Ou Hao came out of the Chinese medicine hospital with his long legs.
His face was a little anxious. "Dean, the Chinese medicine supplier said they want to raise the price of the herbs."
Bian Zhi lowered her eyelashes and asked, "Do you want to mention it together?"
The store manager wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Yes, no matter what you do, they want to bring it up right away. I asked for some time, at least to give us some time to find a suitable source of herbs, but that didn't work either. They said if I didn't pay, the herbs would be cut off."
Bian Zhi: "Are there any herbs missing now?"
Pharmacy management: "Not yet, but several commonly used medicines are approaching the minimum inventory alarm value."
Traditional Chinese medicine hospitals have many patients and use a large amount of medicine. A long time ago, Zhou Suihuai stipulated that the minimum inventory of each medicinal material must be able to supply the hospital's consumption for half a month. This regulation means that the inventory of medicinal materials in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals is not too urgent.
However, this is a problem that needs to be addressed quickly.
"Why are we raising prices together?" Bian Zhi asked.
"I don't know. I just arrived at the store this morning and received an email from them. It seemed like they had discussed it in advance. Moreover, their price increase standards are very uniform, with each herb increasing by 20% per 100 grams."
Hearing this, Bian Zhi frowned.
Although the medicinal materials are not expensive, the price increase per 100 grams is a considerable expense for patients.
"They also said that they want us to give an answer today. If we don't, they will not deliver the goods starting today."
Bian Zhi frowned slightly.
"This was premeditated, and there must be someone behind this," Ou Hao said anxiously. "I've contacted some suppliers of medicinal materials before, and they're all very willing to cooperate with our Chinese medicine hospital as a backup option. But when I asked them just now, they've all raised their prices. I asked someone with decent connections, and he told me privately that the Chinese medicine hospital is too popular and has offended people, so this happened."
"Director, why don't you tell Mr. Zhou?" The new manager didn't understand what was going on. She only knew that the founder of this herbal medicine shop was Zhou Suihuai. This wasn't her first time managing a herbal medicine shop, but this shop had strict regulations on everything from the source of the herbs to quality control and even the details of boiling the herbs. People in the shop said that these regulations were made by Mr. Zhou himself.
The level of detail in the information made her think that Mr. Zhou was also a doctor. However, her subordinates said that Mr. Zhou was a businessman, so she became even more curious about him. "Mr. Zhou had previously contacted the herbs here. Perhaps if he went to talk to them, they would be of some use."
"No need," Bian Zhi said as he flipped through the inventory records of the Chinese medicine shop. "They've all agreed on this. It doesn't matter if he goes and complains. I'll handle it here. You just focus on your work. No one outside is allowed to know about the shortage of medicinal materials."
After saying that, Bian Zhi went to the Chinese medicine hospital.
There were already many people waiting in the corridor of the Chinese medicine hospital, but no one knew that the hospital's medicinal materials could only last for a week.
When Bian Zhi gets off work.
Ou Hao hurried in from outside. He had been running all day.
"I've contacted several pharmacies in other provinces and asked them to send samples over. I'll ask the pharmacies to take a look. It seems the larger pharmacies have also received notices, and many are saying they're raising prices. Only a few smaller pharmacies say they can supply, but their quantities are small and probably can't support the large expenditures on medicinal materials at a traditional Chinese medicine hospital."
Bian Zhi said "hmm".
I called Huo Tianyao. They used to be in the pharmaceutical business, but after moving their headquarters back to China, they also started developing traditional Chinese medicine.
"Okay, I'll adjust the amount for you."
Bian Zhi gave a dosage, and Huo Tianyao exclaimed, "Oh my god!" "Girl, your little shabby Chinese medicine hospital can use so many Chinese medicines. Why didn't you say before that this fertilizer should be used in your own fields, understand?"
Bian Zhi didn't have time to chat with Huo Tianyao.
Ask someone to send the herbs over quickly. Huo Tianyao said "OK" and Bian Zhi hung up the phone.
The next day.
There are more patients in the Chinese medicine hospital than before. Bian Zhi noticed that many of them are elderly patients.
Bian Zhi found out after asking.
The news that the Chinese medicine hospital was short of medicinal materials was leaked.
The herbal medicine shop of the Chinese medicine hospital was previously contacted by Zhou Suihuai. Zhou Suihuai just wanted to please Bian Zhi. Over the years, this herbal medicine shop has not made any money, and all the money has been used to subsidize the quality of the herbs. Therefore, many people come to this herbal medicine shop to get medicine.
It was fine before, but now medicinal materials are in short supply, so I can only follow the prescriptions from my own Chinese medicine hospital to get medicine.
As a result, everyone came, fearing that it would be too late and they would not be able to get the good medicinal materials.
But then again, the wolfberries that cost a dozen yuan outside are the size of a little finger, and the wolfberries here at the Chinese medicine hospital are the same price as those outside. Not to mention whether they are moisture-proof, they are only the size of a thumb. Everyone in City A knows about this. People have to go around half the city to buy the medicinal ingredients for making soup here, not to mention such an important thing as making a medicine.
That day, Bian Zhi was blocked at the door and couldn't even get into the Chinese medicine hospital.
Later, after all the people from the Scorpion group, regardless of height, weight or weight, came out to persuade him, Bian Zhi was able to squeeze into the clinic.
Because of this, Chinese medicine hospitals became a hot topic again.
"Hey, Lao Zhou, do you have something good hidden?"
At the Qin family, Old Man Qin coughed loudly. Zhou Guotao sipped his tea and smiled politely, "What do you mean?"
Old Master Qin said, "I saw the news. The mother of your children is really amazing." Old Master Qin gave a thumbs up. "I heard that the threshold of the Chinese Medicine Hospital was broken down."
Zhou Guotao smiled and said, "We are just kidding. If you can find a Chinese medicine doctor anywhere, wouldn't everyone want to go see one?" Zhou Guotao was being polite as he didn't want to cause trouble for Bian Zhi.
"Really? I see, ahem, ahem—are you on guard against me?"
"How could that be possible? You're just being overly suspicious."
"Are you being overly suspicious? Why did you move out when our family arrived? My little grandson was sad for days at home, and I heard he came to play with your little girl, either learning piano or martial arts. What's going on? How old is she, and you're controlling her social life?"
Zhou Guotao still smiled lightly, without any expression, "How could that be? I'm just being overly suspicious."
"You're accusing me of being overly suspicious. I told you to ask your Chinese doctor to come and take a look at me. I've told you several times. What's wrong? Are you afraid of taking responsibility for taking a look at me?"
Zhou Guotao, "That's because she's busy. Besides, her skills are so mediocre that they can't be put on the stage."
The ambulance has been there several times for Mr. Qin to be rescued. Zhou Guotao didn't want to cause trouble for Bian Zhi. If he passed out after drinking the Chinese medicine, it would be a disaster.
Bian Zhi already had enough things to deal with, and he thought that this was a mess, so he just stopped it.
Unexpectedly, this old man Qin refused to give in.
