Chapter 142 Getting back on track The clinic is closed today
Mr. Zhang didn't listen to his wife's words. It wasn't that he thought she was wrong. Rather, given Kunyuan's current decline, he simply didn't have the courage to invest in it.
He is just a distributor and cannot save Kunyuan, a ship that is about to capsize.
Mr. Zhang didn't know at the moment that he would soon regret not listening to his wife.
Shen Jiang also received the first batch of Xiaoyao Pills, but she was not satisfied with it at all. Instead, she urged Boss Chen to continue making new medicinal materials. They faced all kinds of patients every day, and this kind of medicine alone was not enough.
Shen Jiang calculated the amount of medicinal materials needed and sent the materials for making various medicines to Kunyuan Medicinal Materials Factory early.
Boss Chen thought to himself that she was being rude. She arranged the production work in her workshop in a very clear manner, as if she was treating it as a processing plant.
Ming Xin Tang has recently gained quite a bit of attention on a popular online book. Initially, it was just a casual post, but as more and more people came to see it, eager to give it a try, the online admiration for it grew even louder. Ming Xin Tang is poised to become a trending online restaurant.
Tong Ying had read so many online posts praising Mingxintang's medical prowess. The words in those posts often held a soothing power. She watched as those heartfelt photos of their restored complexions, or lamenting the long-awaited sleep she hadn't had, found many others responding.
Tong Ying immediately decided to try this Chinese medicine clinic.
Tong Ying has been having a tough time lately. A recent physical examination revealed a possible cancerous nodule in her body. The doctor offered her two options: immediate surgery or no surgery and continued observation. Since then, Tong Ying has struggled to eat or sleep, and has lost interest in her work.
Surgery isn't foolproof. She'd researched the possibility of a relapse, and if she wasn't lucky, she'd have to undergo not only various chemotherapy treatments but also a second surgery. She joined several cancer support groups, where the mutual encouragement and support eased her anxiety somewhat. But Tong Ying couldn't pretend to be unaware of the ticking time bomb in her body. She lived in constant fear, fearing she'd miss the opportunity for surgery and allow the cancer to metastasize.
Tong Ying quickly found Mingxin Hall based on the address provided by netizens. The simple decoration and the young Chinese medicine doctor here were exactly the same as what the netizens described, which made Tong Ying gradually feel relieved.
She knew that this young, baby-faced female doctor looked young, but in fact she was quite capable. Many people's melasma and insomnia were cured by her miraculous hands.
Sure enough, she didn't specifically say what illness she had, but the young Chinese doctor was able to find out that she had thyroid nodules just by taking her pulse.
Tong Ying was a little excited: "Yes! Yes! I came here to see my thyroid gland."
She asked anxiously, "Doctor, can my disease be cured?"
Shen Jiang smiled at her and nodded, "Relax and don't dwell on these things. If you're happy, the problems will scare themselves away."
Tong Ying nodded in agreement, feeling relieved.
But when it came time to prepare the medicine, Tong Ying discovered something was wrong.
"I don't want this medicine, I want the medicine you make yourself! I'm not afraid of spending money, just prescribe me a new medicine!" Tong Ying said with a gloomy face, very persistent.
She had done her homework and found out that the medicines those people ordered from Mingxintang were all freshly prepared and boiled in the store. They were not packaged Chinese patent medicines like this at all. It was obvious that they were imported from outside.
She won't take this kind of unknown brand of medicine!
Traditional Chinese medicine practitioner He Mei was stunned. Besides Shen Jiang and Elder Lu, the shop had been incredibly busy all morning. And yet, this patient needed a complicated, time-consuming, and meticulously prepared pill. In the past, when she had fewer patients, she'd done it when she had nothing else to do. But now, she was so busy picking and boiling the herbs that she simply couldn't spare the time for this.
If the production of pills for this one person delays the medication for other patients, the boss will definitely be angry.
Tong Ying: "Let me ask you, did you make all the medicine in your store before? Why did you prescribe this ready-made medicine for me?"
She was a little angry, feeling that her excitement had been for nothing. The medicines prescribed by others were all made in-house by the clinic, while she had been prescribed a brand-name foreign medicine. She had been treated like a fool.
He Mei was stumped by the question and didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only wave her hands repeatedly.
Tong Ying was now even more certain. She was furious. What kind of illness could this cheap medicine cure?! Don't make her condition worse!
"You are so irresponsible!"
When Shen Jiang heard the noise, she quickly asked her grandmother to sit still and not move while she went out to take a look.
When I came out of the clinic, I saw everyone gathered in the pharmacy, and the noisy female voices inside were quite familiar.
Shen Jiang quickly understood what had happened. She walked over and said to the patient with a smile, "Ms. Tong, you misunderstood. This medicine is made with herbs from our store, and it's the same medicine the previous patient took. Because of the high demand for this medicine, our store doesn't have enough time to make it, so we specially asked a pharmaceutical factory to make it for us. This medicine only arrived in the store today, and I haven't had time to tell the pharmacy yet."
She didn't expect any patient to care about this, so she didn't specifically tell the pharmacy about the origin of the medicine. After all, patients rarely pay such attention to details when they see a doctor.
He Mei was a little surprised. No wonder the boss told her in the morning that she wouldn't have to make pills anymore. At that time, she thought that the boss saw that the store was too busy and specially went out to buy a batch of Chinese patent medicines as a backup. She didn't expect that these medicines were actually made of the same medicinal materials in the store?
Tong Ying saw that it was the doctor who came out to explain, and her expression finally looked better.
But she was still a little worried: "I don't recognize this brand. Could it be produced by a small workshop?"
Shen Jiang hadn't known about Kunyuan before, but seeing the patient's questioning, she couldn't help but shed a tear for Boss Chen. He insisted on using the best raw materials, employing complex and tedious processes, and strictly controlling workshop hygiene standards, only to be called a small, no-name workshop by the patient.
The fact that he was able to bring the pharmaceutical factory to bankruptcy was truly due to his strength.
Shen Jiang: "Don't worry, Kunyuan Chinese Medicine Factory is definitely not a small workshop. On the contrary, it is a very conscientious enterprise. That's why we chose to cooperate with them."
An old lady was delighted when she heard about Kunyuan: "You young people don't know, but back then Kunyuan was the leading enterprise in our city!"
She gave a thumbs-up and said proudly, "That used to be this way. It was very glorious."
Tong Ying's mood immediately improved when she realized that it was a misunderstanding.
Since it is a big enterprise, she feels relieved.
The traditional Chinese medicine here is really amazing, even big companies have to help them make medicine.
In addition to Tong Ying, previous old patients also received prescription medicine produced by Kunyuan. When they heard that this medicine was made with the same medicinal materials as the store, and it was prepared and taken immediately, without having to go up to the hospital for half a day like before, they were immediately very satisfied:
"Your boss is really amazing. He can even get custom-made medicines from pharmaceutical factories."
The medicines produced by Kunyuan Medicinal Materials Factory soon became as famous as Mingxintang.
At first, netizens thought this must be a new round of advertising rhetoric, until they found that they could not buy the same medicine at the pharmacy, and even could not buy it through a certain group purchase. Then they realized that this was not an advertisement at all, but those who had received the medicine were deliberately showing off.
Kunyuan Medicinal Materials Factory hadn't received any new orders yet, but Boss Chen wasn't in a hurry. After all, the medicine produced by one production line was just enough to supply Mingxintang. Soon, the returned funds convinced Boss Chen to open a new production line!
Peng Tao had promised his wife that he would take the baby to the doctor next time. Seven days later, his son's complexion had improved considerably, no longer looking as horrible as before. Not forgetting his promise, Peng Tao immediately offered his wife his courtesy: "Wenxin, I'm taking Xiaobao to the doctor today. Send me the address."
Li Wenxin didn't expect him to do what he said, and her face softened immediately: "Let's go together. After seeing the doctor, we can take Xiaobao out to play for a while."
Peng Tao nodded, thinking it was a good idea. The three of them hadn't gone out to play together for a long time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Peng Tao entered the clinic with his child in his arms, he discovered something was wrong inside, and quickly placed his wife and child at the door.
"The clinic is closed today. Please cooperate with our inspection. Everyone, please disperse!"
Several law enforcement officers in plain clothes were chasing people away, and the scene was chaotic.
