Chapter 71: Going to the Countryside as Educated Youth in the 1970s 34
[This is a parallel fictional world. Please do not take any similarities between place names and people as they appear.]
He Shiba was sent by He Wu to purchase soybeans, and Jiafeng took them to the county town on a bicycle. Zhang Xiaojia and Leng Jiaojiao went to make a phone call first, but her father had gone to the grassroots level. Aunt Leng said she would come the day after tomorrow and hung up the phone.
Zhang Xiaojia was worried that Leng Jiaojiao might misunderstand that Aunt Leng didn't like her, so she quickly explained, "Sister Jiaojiao, your mother doesn't like to talk. The most she talked to me was when I went to the countryside. Usually, she only talks to me for a maximum of five sentences. She loves you the most and has traveled to many cities for you. Please don't misunderstand."
"Don't worry, I won't misunderstand, let alone be jealous. In fact, I really thank you for accompanying my mother when I was away."
Zhang Xiaojia held Leng Jiaojiao's arm. It was great that the plot in the novel did not happen.
The two men had a clear goal. They bought a bicycle, a watch, and a sewing machine, loaded them onto a tricycle, and went to the grain station. They used the expired grain coupons to buy all the grain and went straight home.
Ping An was sitting in the clinic, grumbling. Zhang Xiaojia walked over and sat next to him, asking, "Ping An, what's wrong?"
"Sister, my fruit wine business was taken away by my father."
"Don't the men and children of the He family just need to hand over 50% of what they buy at the market?"
Ping An tearfully said, "They only gave me 15 percent, saying I was a winemaker and it was a family business."
Zhang Xiaojia turned around and asked, "How much have you sold your fruit wine in the past few months?"
Ping An said proudly, "In four months, I sold nearly 600 yuan."
Zhang Xiaojia shook his head and said, "Silly boy, all the people who worked at the He family winery are back. Your father would like to split every penny into ten parts. The fruit wine you sell is so profitable. If he doesn't rob you, whose else should he rob? Besides, the clan rules have stipulated that only 15% of the wine business can be divided. I'd be ruthless and not give you a penny. After all, the wine your father brews tastes better than yours."
Zhang Xiaojia consoled him, "Your father will surely sell even better fruit wine, and the dividends he gives you won't be less than what you earn in a month."
Ping An said angrily, "But my father didn't give me any money. He said he asked my mother to keep the account and give it to me after I get married. The most hateful thing is that he confiscated all the money I earned in the past four months. I only have 100 yuan left."
"100 yuan is not a small amount." Zhang Xiaojia comforted dryly.
"The He family's daughter-in-law is still the best. As long as the He family's daughter-in-law is not selling wine, she doesn't have to report to the clan for anything she sells at the market. Sister, I'm leaving first. Brother Jiayi asked me to go find him."
He Shiba entered the clinic. Zhang Xiaojia raised his eyebrows. How did this guy get in?
He Shiba quickly said, "The note at the door is gone. I think I can come in."
Zhang Xiaojia said coldly, "What's the matter?"
"Fifth Brother asked me to ask you, are you going to Xiaofei's place for the New Year? He's preparing for some New Year celebrations. If you go, you can take him with you. If not, Fifth Brother will go tonight."
"If nothing unexpected happens, I'll go on the third year of junior high."
He Shiba asked cautiously, "Okay, can I go find Jiaojiao?"
"Ten minutes, one minute longer, and you won't be able to come in again."
"Okay." He Shiba ran away quickly.
After examining and performing acupuncture and cupping on eight patients every day, Zhang Xiaojia really has nothing to do.
She didn't need to prepare New Year's goods, as Xiaoyi's cooking was better than hers. Yanyan and Jiaojiao had done all the cleaning at home. She had also prepared the medicinal wine and enhanced health pills, as well as the hemostatic medicine, bone-setting ointment, and cold leg ointment, which were enough for her to use for a long time.
He Wu forbade her to go out and wander around, saying that he was very busy at the end of the year and asked her not to go out and cause trouble.
Zhang Xiaojia knew what she had to do. She had a lot of Artemisia annua leaves and flowers in her hand to extract artemisinin. She went to the laboratory and took out the kitchen appliance. This kitchen appliance was very powerful. Extracting substances from plants was a piece of cake. She didn't need organic solvents. She heated, stirred, filtered, and purified the extract again for testing.
Interstellar kitchen appliances can be completed directly with one-time electronic operation.
Zhang Xiaojia developed artemisinin oral solution, artemisinin compound tablets, artemisinin preventive tablets, and artemisinin injection.
Call 3095 when you are done.
This time, 3095 showed up right away. Zhang Xiaojia asked, "Why didn't you show up when I called you last time?"
3095 snorted coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to mess with those psychos? You're just a newbie, are you going to die by messing with them?"
"Is He Fei really a senior fast traveler?"
"Yes, he has System 0003 on him. I don't want to see it. Tell me, what's going on this time?"
"Can you help me find out if anyone here has invented artemisinin?"
"Yes, your Grandpa Feng's notes contain records of the original owner's failed experiment to extract artemisinin. After your grandfather died, the heroine accidentally obtained your Grandpa Feng's notes. A year later, the heroine extracted artemisinin based on the notes."
Zhang Xiaojia burst into tears and asked hurriedly, "How did my grandfather die?"
3095 said speechlessly, "Why are you so anxious? If you're not dead, your Grandpa Feng won't die either, don't worry!"
"??? There's a male and female protagonist! What was my first memory?"
"It turns out that Zhang Xiaojia's memory has a plot on the interface. You can read the plot yourself. The consultation fee is 1 point."
Zhang Xiaojia directly watched the plot,
In the first life, the heroine fell into the river and was rescued by He Jiayi. She was given artificial respiration and was considered innocent by the world. The woman came to He Jiayi's house and forced him to marry her. He Jiayi refused to marry her, saying that it was due to his own fault and that marrying the heroine would harm her.
The heroine was eventually married to a domestic violence man by her family, and her life was wasted. The heroine hated He Jiayi.
In the second life, the heroine used the swimming skills she learned in the previous life to rescue He Jiayi when she fell into the water. The heroine framed He Jiayi, saying that he took the opportunity to clear her name. He Jiayi was arrested, and in order to save He Jiayi, the He family gave up their shares in the county winery.
The heroine accidentally obtained the notes of Mr. Feng, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, which contained many case studies and prescriptions.
She just appeared in the diary and was mentioned briefly. She was not even a passerby.
The heroine cured many people based on their medical records and prescriptions, and she met and fell in love with a second-generation red. The second-generation red accidentally knew that He Jiayi had cleared the heroine's name, so he plotted to destroy the He family.
There were 60 households and more than 300 people in the He family, but in the end only Pangpang and Ping'an were left.
The hero and heroine live happily together.
Zhang Xiaojia was so angry after reading it.
"3095, 3095"
"What again?"
"The plot is wrong. He Fei is the division commander, and there are 5 or 6 members of the He family in the middle ranks of the army. How could they be destroyed all of a sudden?"
"Because of you, the butterfly effect, your father made an equal exchange with the He family for you. The He family protected you, and your father protected the He family. If He Fei hadn't come, He Fei would have died in the mountains at the age of 7."
"Can I take revenge?"
"You can't kill the original male and female protagonists, you can do whatever you want with the others."
Zhang Xiaojia took out an old notebook and falsified his records, recording the extraction of artemisinin. He wrote down nearly 200 failure records, each with a different trace of anger, disappointment, etc.
After everything was done, I felt hungry.
Zhang Xiaojia walked out of the laboratory, went to the kitchen, picked up the buns from the pot and started eating, wondering why Xiaoyi was not in the kitchen?
"Sister Xiaojia is in the kitchen, no need to look for her!" Jiayi shouted.
???
Xiao Yi ran over angrily and asked, "Where have you been? Can you see what time it is?"
Zhang Xiaojia looked at his watch. It was past 9 p.m., and he said apologetically, "I forgot the time in the lab. I won't do that next time."
Xiao Yi said angrily, "Change the curtains in your laboratory. No one outside can tell whether the lights are on or not."
Zhang Xiaojia said good-naturedly, "Okay, okay."
The train arrived at ten o'clock. Zhang Xiaojia and Sister Jiaojiao arrived in the county town early in the morning. Zhang Xiaojia went to the post office first and called Uncle Fang.
"Uncle Fang, I'm Zhang Xiaojia. Can you send someone to get some information?"
Fang Jingshan asked, "What information?"
"He said it was inconvenient over the phone. Grandpa Feng and I were doing the experiment together. My father didn't let me go to the countryside so that I could finish the information earlier. But I lived up to everyone's expectations and completed it successfully." Zhang Xiaojia said proudly.
"Master Feng, the traditional Chinese medicine doctor?"
"Yes, a great discovery."
"Don't leave there, wait."
"good."
Fang Jingshan hung up the phone decisively and went straight to explain the situation.
The Lord of Central City asked, "That little bastard said it was the greatest discovery?"
Fang Jingshan smiled and said, "Well, this little girl is a bit spoiled, but her abilities are beyond reproach. Eight patients with advanced uremia have gradually improved and will be cured in another six months. She also gave Dr. Feng, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, a cataract treatment plan and asked him to promote it. Now Dr. Feng is just an errand boy, teaching in every hospital."
The Lord of Central City said, "Put me on the line. I'll ask her."
Zhang Xiaojia watched the post office staff leave, and Jiaojiao was also asked to leave. The phone rang, and Zhang Xiaojia quickly picked up the phone.
"Hello, I'm Zhang Xiaojia"
"Zhang Xiaojia, do you want to tell me about your great discovery?"
Zhang Xiaojia said happily, "How are you? I made another batch of enhanced health pills and asked my dad to send them to you."
"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly"
"Grandpa Feng discovered from ancient books that some doctors had used Artemisia annua to treat malaria, but we tried it and it didn't work. I wanted to try it again, so I went to work as an educated youth. During this period of hibernation, I started experimenting again. This time, I extracted something called artemisinin from Artemisia annua. Artemisinin is an antimalarial drug used to treat various types of malaria, especially severe malignant malaria and cerebral malaria that are resistant to chloroquine.
It has a strong and rapid killing effect on all types of erythrocytic stage Plasmodium, and also has a killing effect on chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum. It is especially effective for people with first-time malaria.
By the way, I also made artemisinin oral solution, artemisinin compound tablets, artemisinin preventive tablets, and artemisinin injection.
With artemisinin, malaria can be virtually eliminated from Chinese medical history."
"Get the information ready right away. I'll send Lao Fang to get it right away. I won't give it to anyone else except Lao Fang. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand."
"You did a good job this time. What reward do you want?"
"Give me a pig so I can celebrate the New Year. Also, the authors of this discovery are Grandpa Feng and me. Don't forget me. I conducted 207 experiments before I finally extracted artemisinin. I don't need anything else."
[Tu Youyou, a lifelong researcher at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and recipient of the National Highest Science and Technology Award, discovered artemisinin. This is a small step in humanity's conquest of malaria and a gift from traditional Chinese medicine to the world. (This is quoted in the article.)
