In order to end the embarrassing topic as soon as possible, Xu Jianguo planned to take advantage of the time when Hong Guoqiang was still unconscious to check the health of the remaining veterans. If there were any minor problems, they could be treated. If there were any major problems, they could be discovered and treated in time.
"Director Wang, it's still early and I have nothing to do anyway, so why don't I show it to everyone?" Xu Jianguo said to Wang Dawei.
When Wang Dawei heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. But before he could say anything, his father spoke first, "That's great!"
"Boy, you are thoughtful!" Xiao Jianye said, and several other veterans nodded in agreement.
As Xu Jianguo's proposal was accepted by everyone, they walked over to the nearest room. When Xu Jianguo sat down, the eight veterans behind him had already lined up in a row. Xu Jianguo and Wang Dawei were slightly stunned by what they saw, thinking that veterans are veterans, even if they retired due to injuries, some things engraved in their bones will never change.
In the following time, Xu Jianguo took the pulse of the veterans one by one. If he encountered any minor ailments, he would take out the Longling needle and give them acupuncture on the spot. After a few needles, all the symptoms were immediately relieved.
For diseases such as rheumatism and arthritis, Xu Jianguo also prescribed medicine based on each person's physical condition.
In fact, if the century-old medicinal wine brewed with the space well water in the space could be given to these veterans to drink, the effect would be better, but it is definitely impossible to do it now in front of so many people. I can only wait until I go back and find an opportunity to send them a jar.
In the blink of an eye, more than two hours had passed. At this time, Xu Jianguo had finished taking the pulse of all eight veterans, even Wang Dawei.
As the prescriptions were handed over to several people, Xu Jianguo's mission this time was considered completed.
He looked at his watch, got up and went into the house to check on Hong Guoqiang. Finding that he was still asleep, he came out again and sat in the house with a few veterans to chat.
While sitting there, Xu Jianguo rarely spoke and most of the time he listened attentively.
Several veterans were also happy to tell him some interesting stories from the battlefield. For Xu Jianguo, who had not experienced that era, this was very interesting to listen to.
After chatting for a while, an old soldier who had lost one leg stood up with crutches and prepared to go to the toilet to urinate. Seeing this, Wang Dawei immediately stepped forward and accompanied him out.
Xu Jianguo felt sad when he saw the old soldier moving with such effort. Suddenly, something seemed to come to his mind, and he couldn't help but stand there in a daze. After a moment, his eyes lit up.
Several veterans also obviously noticed that something was wrong with Xu Jianguo, but no one asked.
Through Wang Dawei's introduction, these veterans knew something about his past, but even Wang Dawei was unaware of the confidential matters. However, this did not prevent them from looking at Xu Jianguo with admiration, and they all knew that the young military officer in front of them was no simple character.
So when I saw him suddenly in a daze, I guessed that he might have thought of something or had some inspiration, so I didn't say anything to disturb him.
After a while, Wang Dawei came back with the old soldier who went out to the toilet. When they entered the house, they suddenly found that the house seemed to have become quiet. When they were about to ask, they saw Xiao Jianye making a silence gesture to them. It was not until then that they noticed Xu Jianguo's abnormality.
After a moment, Xu Jianguo's eyes slowly focused, and then he noticed something strange in the room, and then he smiled embarrassedly.
Seeing Xu Jianguo return to normal, several veterans also laughed, but no one asked him what he was thinking just now.
However, although no one asked, Xu Jianguo quickly gave everyone the answer.
He asked Wang Dawei for paper and pen, then sat on a chair and started writing and drawing.
Ten minutes later, Xu Jianguo handed a piece of paper with a pattern on it to Wang Dawei and said, "Director Wang, take a look!"
Wang Dawei took the paper and found that there was a drawing on it of something that looked very much like a bicycle. However, unlike an ordinary bicycle, the bicycle drawn by Xu Jianguo had three wheels, and the original pedals were placed on the handlebars.
That’s right, what Xu Jianguo drew was the power-assisted bicycle for the disabled that was quite popular for a while in later generations. Its operation was also very simple. It just changed the original power output from pedals to hand-cranked, and for the sake of stability, the two-wheeled bicycle was changed to a three-wheeled one. The mechanical devices such as flywheel and chain were no different from those of ordinary bicycles. Only the transmission device needed to be slightly modified, and it was very simple to manufacture.
Wang Dawei, looking at the blueprint in his hand, didn't understand Xu Jianguo's meaning for a moment. After studying it for a while, he asked, "Jianguo, what is this? It looks like a bicycle to me, but it's not!"
After Wang Dawei finished speaking, his father stood up and walked over, took the drawing paper from his hand, and then started to check it with several other veterans.
"Director Wang, you can think of it as a bicycle, but I made some slight changes. I got this inspiration when you were helping Mr. Ge out just now." Xu Jianguo said.
"bike?"
"Well, or rather, it should be called a power-assisted bicycle for the disabled. With this bicycle, several elderly men with poor mobility can go out for a stroll like ordinary people. Moreover, they can exercise their upper limb strength while driving this bicycle, which will make it easier for them to use crutches in the future."
