Sales volume of appetite stimulants
Sanhua Weitai was finally put into production, packaged in small paper bags, 15 grams per bag, and sold for three cents, a moderate price determined after researching all the stomach medicines currently on the market.
In the early days of the pharmaceutical factory, only one production line was put into operation, with a total of six employees producing 40,000 packages of powder per month.
In accordance with the county government's support policy, Sanhua Weitai quickly entered hospitals at all levels in the county, township and village, and soon received positive feedback. Sanhua Weitai has a small dosage and a quick effect.
In the first month, we achieved monthly sales of more than 30,000 packs.
It can be said that it was a good start, but Shen Roujiao did not blindly expand her confidence and quickly add staff and production lines. Instead, she visited many hospitals that were using the drugs and collected and recorded a large number of first-hand treatment cases from doctors.
Due to the lack of clinical data, the specific clinical performance of Sanhua Weitai can only be supplemented in this way.
During that time, Shen Roujiao and Zhou Huaiyue went out early and came back late, riding two bicycles under the scorching sun, shuttling between major hospitals.
Zhou Huaiyue was responsible for asking about symptoms and treatment methods, while Shen Roujiao was responsible for recording. When they returned to their residence at night, the two would review the situation again and compile a book based on symptoms such as gastric urgency, mild symptoms, stomach burning, bloating, flatulence, etc. A large amount of the organizing and writing work fell on Shen Roujiao. There were too many medical terms, so she could only ask questions while writing.
Many times, she would become silent while she was writing or asking questions. When Zhou Huaiyue went over to take a look, he found that she was so tired that she had fallen asleep with the pen in her hand.
Whenever this happened, Zhou Huaiyue felt the happiest. He would put clothes on her, lie beside her, and foolishly imitate her sleeping appearance with his eyes.
He felt sorry for her hard work and liked her drive to work hard. The two of them worked hard towards the same goal, which gave Zhou Huaiyue unprecedented pleasure, a greater sense of accomplishment than getting things done.
Being with your loved one, sharing the same ideals and interests, and working in harmony with each other, that kind of happiness surpasses everything and does not require any words.
Sometimes, with just a glance, he knew that she was by his side.
In this way, within three months, the two of them traveled almost all levels of hospitals in counties, towns and villages, and compiled four books of real and effective treatment cases.
It is precisely because of the large number of real cases that they have more confidence in the efficacy of Sanhua Weitai. Master Ciyun’s prescription is an amazing and precious prescription.
As we enter November, the temperature difference between day and night is large and the human body is stimulated by the cold air, which can easily induce stomach problems. It is also the peak period for stomach problems.
Sanhua set a new goal, using Xiaonanchuan City as the starting point to cover all the hospitals under the city, and then contact Director Sun of the Yunnan and Yunnan Provincial Hospital during the epidemic period, looking for opportunities to form a marketing chain from the county to the city and then to the province, and first completely open up the Yunnan and Yunnan markets.
It’s easier to get things done with acquaintances.
When Shen Roujiao and Zhou Huaiyue brought the Weitai medicine and presented the treatment cases that they had carefully compiled over the past few months to Mayor Lu Qinglan, Sanhua Weitai successfully entered major hospitals and pharmaceutical companies in Xiaonanchuan City and County.
As the saying goes, with the right time, right place and right people, Sanhua Weitai's monthly sales soon reached 250,000 packs, and all five production lines were put into operation.
It was almost mid-January and there was still a month before the Chinese New Year, so the two discussed going to the Provincial Hospital before the New Year to sound out Director Sun's opinion and make preparations for promoting the drugs throughout Yunnan and Yunnan provinces after the New Year.
The call was from Zhou Huaiyue. When Director Sun heard his voice, he thought that he had finally figured it out and wanted to come to the provincial hospital to work, so he welcomed him warmly.
After Lingxi found out, she also wanted to go along, saying that when Master Ciyun was in Yunnan, he had visited a Taoist temple nearby, and she wanted to go take a look.
The three of them simply packed their luggage and set off for the provincial capital, Yun City.
Lingxi fell asleep quickly on the long-distance bus. Shen Roujiao sat in the middle, and Zhou Huaiyue patted his shoulder, "You sleep for a while, the journey still takes three hours."
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." She wasn't trying to avoid suspicion, she really wasn't sleepy and went to bed early last night.
"Ms. Zhen Hua invites you to return to the capital to celebrate the New Year." Zhou Huaiyue glanced at her frowning brows and continued as she hesitated, "She said she would introduce you to a powerful person who can help us solve the problem of growing the nameless grass."
!
A raised eyebrow is a sign of affection.
Shen Roujiao was originally resistant. From what Gu Changgeng had heard, the rumors about the two of them in the capital were already spreading like wildfire. At this time, Chen Zhenhua asked them to go back, so it must be more than just the matter of the pharmaceutical factory.
The rumors were all caused by her. She and Zhou Huaiyue were like two people trapped in a desolate quagmire, struggling against each other but getting deeper and deeper into it.
On the other hand, the trial planting of nameless grass did not show any improvement. In addition, Sanhua Weitai will promote its marketing in health bureaus and hospitals in major cities next year, with Beijing being the most important market.
Therefore, for both public and private reasons, I must go to the capital.
"My junior sister has never been to the capital. Can I take her with me?" With Lingxi around, she at least had an excuse not to live in the Zhou family.
Zhou Huaiyue raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "As long as she agrees."
......
It was noon when they arrived in Yun City. After finding a place to stay, they had a simple lunch. Lingxi went back to the guesthouse, while Shen Roujiao and Zhou Huaiyue went to the county hospital to find Director Sun.
In the office, opposite Director Sun sat three members of the epidemic medical team. When they saw them, they greeted them warmly, "I heard from the director that the master is coming. We are all waiting to see you."
He forced the two to sit down, served tea and poured water. Zhou Huaiyue said nothing, and could only greet them softly, "We came here to ask for a favor, and we have a favor to ask of you."
When they explained their purpose, everyone was silent for a while, and then burst into laughter. One of them said to the confused people, "Director Sun, you are so eager to find a talent. I thought Huaiyue was going to work in the provincial hospital. You even thought of where to arrange him to sit."
"Making medicine is also treating illnesses." Zhou Huaiyue blurted out.
"Yes, yes, let us see it."
Director Sun took the Sanhua Weitai data and treatment cases handed over by Shen Roujiao, and said as he read them, "Huai Yue is right. Chronic gastritis is the most common chronic disease among Chinese people. The stomach medicine market is mixed, and there are too few effective medicines. The provincial hospital still uses mostly Western medicines, such as aluminum hydroxide and atropine. Chinese medicines such as Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and Aucklandia lappa take a long time to take effect, and they need to be decocted, so not many patients use them. Powders are quick to take effect and convenient, but are they bitter?"
Most powders are too bitter to swallow when taken with warm water. Therefore, most powders are made into hard capsules, and few are pure powders.
"Director, please try it. It's slightly sweet and has a light fragrance. Children can also take it." A man handed over the opened medicine powder.
Director Sun first sniffed it, then took a pinch and took a sip. His brows furrowed slightly, and after thinking for a long time, he smiled and said, "Did you add hawthorn?"
!
Awesome! As expected of a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, Director Sun was the first one to taste it.
Although Zhou Huaiyue did not know the specific proportions of the prescription, he knew that Gynostemma pentaphyllum had a special taste and was slightly bitter. In order to adjust the taste of the prescription, he tried adding red dates, wolfberries, hawthorns, and even rock sugar powder to neutralize and improve the bitterness.
It was not until the product was sent to Beijing for examination that it was confirmed that hawthorn, which can help digestion, invigorate the stomach, promote qi circulation and relieve blood stasis, was used.
Shen Roujiao took two steps at a time and hurried to Director Sun's side, placing her index finger between her lips, "Tsk! You know everything but don't say it, so we can meet again in the future." She was really afraid that Director Sun would name out all the herbs like calling out the names of dishes.
"This devilish girl." Director Sun flicked Shen Roujiao's forehead, pointed his chin at Zhou Huaiyue and said, "Your master hasn't said anything yet, and you come up to shut me up. Huaiyue, marry her home quickly."
At that time in the epidemic area, everyone saw the exciting scene of Shen Roujiao, Zhang Qingjun, and Zhou Huaiyue running. Those who studied medicine must have supported Zhou Huaiyue.
"Waiting for her nod." He did not avoid looking away, his eyes fixed on Shen Roujiao.
Zhou Huaiyue liked her by taking advantage of his master's identity and confessed his love to her in a joking way, which made Shen Roujiao's heart beat faster.
!
A burst of booing, along with requests for wedding candy, made her face flush, spreading from her ears to her neck. Shen Roujiao pretended to be calm and turned away, coughed lightly, trying to ease the embarrassment, and replied darkly: "You are talking nonsense."
"Okay, let's get down to business." Director Sun glanced at Zhou Huaiyue's cold face and stopped the conversation.
New drugs will be listed on the list together with other drugs and reported to the hospital in a unified manner. The approval process will take some time, but overall there will not be any major problems.
Because there was an expert like Zhou Huaiyue who knew everything about me, things became much simpler. No one would question the efficacy of the treatment, and we just chatted casually for a while.
When the two were about to leave, Director Sun took out a document from a pile of documents and handed it to them, "Don't be in a hurry to leave. There will be a meeting in the next two days. It is a meeting of Chinese and Western medicine organized by the Provincial Health Bureau. The heads of major hospitals and pharmaceutical companies in the province will be there. It's a good opportunity. I will also go there when the time comes."
The meeting is one day later.
I made time to accompany Lingxi to the Taoist temple she had been longing for.
The Taoist temple is not far from the city. It is built on the mountain and surrounded by lush trees. The front gate is the entrance to the Taoist temple. There is a plaque on the gate: Changshou Temple.
The main hall of the Taoist temple has flying eaves and arches, and the Sanqing Hall and the Jade Emperor Hall are solemn and majestic. The walls are made of simple bricks and stones, with some exquisite murals depicting Taoist stories of immortals and scenes of cultivation.
Lingxi was dressed as a little Taoist nun, wearing a blue Taoist robe, with her hair tied up in a bun, and wearing Taoist shoes. She was running and jumping in front.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, a young Taoist priest came to greet him. After the two of them bowed, Lingxi introduced himself as his master and Taoist name: "I come from Ping'an Yuji Temple. I studied under Taoist Master Ciyun. My Taoist name is Lingxi. I would like to meet Taoist Master Qingxu of this temple."
When she said Qingxu's name, the little Taoist lowered his body slightly, his eyes widened, his expression surprised, and he said weakly, "Well, please introduce your master again."
Lingxi repeated it twice before the young Taoist priest went in to report. Shen Roujiao approached and leaned over slightly, asking rather mysteriously, "Senior Sister, is this Taoist priest Qingxu very powerful?"
"He is the Taoist priest who calculated that the master has three disciples. I don't know if he can see us." Lingxi stood on tiptoe, stretched her neck, pursed her lips and looked at the cave entrance nervously.
Suddenly, she raised her little face and said, "Here I come."
