Chapter 329: Follow authority in emergencies
At six o'clock the next morning, when Yu Zhiming came out of the bedroom, he saw his fourth sister sitting on the flip bed with disheveled hair, holding a cup of strong tea in her hand and sipping it.
My third sister, who slept on the sofa last night, also got up and was packing her bedding.
"Fourth sister, the canteen didn't make breakfast today? Did you just get up, or did you just come back from the canteen?"
At this point, Yu Zhiming came closer and noticed that Fourth Sister's eyes were bloodshot. He asked in surprise, "Fourth Sister, you didn't sleep all night, did you?"
Yu Xiangwan put down the teacup and glanced at Yu Zhiming.
"Last night, I was counting red envelopes and checking accounts until almost midnight. I barely slept the entire night."
"Go early. Zhang Bai is watching over you, so I don't need to go."
Yu Xiangwan stood up and pushed Yu Zhiming, urging him, "Hurry up and solve the problem. Go wash up."
"When you come out, I'll tell you in detail about the opening gift money I received yesterday..."
After more than ten minutes, Yu Zhiming came out of the bathroom and saw that his third and fourth sisters had already cleaned up the room.
What shocked Yu Zhiming was that there were dozens of stacks of red Mao Zedong banknotes on the coffee table in the living room.
It is estimated that there are at least 500,000 or 600,000 people.
"Sister, did you receive so much gift money yesterday?"
Yu Xiangwan said proudly, "Old Fifth, the total cash is 640,000, which exactly matches the amount recorded in the gift money book, not a penny more or less."
"In addition to this cash, there is also a check from the Gu family for the amount of six sixes."
"Six sixes?!" Yu Zhiming repeated.
At the same time, he also understood that the congratulatory money from the Gu family also included a thank you for diagnosing Mr. Gu.
"Old Five, there were 533 people who came to congratulate us yesterday, and the vast majority of them were from Huashan Hospital."
"They all came here for you, Lao Wu, so the gift money should be entirely yours."
this……
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment, then looked at the pile of cash and the check.
He looked at the fourth sister and said slowly, "Fourth sister, although those people came for me, you put a lot of thought into the small canteen, and you also entertained them very attentively yesterday."
"How about this, Fourth Sister, you keep 300,000 for yourself."
"Both the canteen and the apartment are still in their early stages..."
Before Yu Zhiming could finish his words, his fourth sister hugged him and kissed him hard on the cheek.
"Old Five, you are my dearest brother. I really love you so much."
Yu Zhiming pushed the excited fourth sister away, and wiped the kissed cheek with the back of his hand in disgust.
He looked at his third sister, who was trying hard to keep a straight face and not let any abnormality show, and said, "Third sister, the successful opening of Fourth Sister's small canteen is a big event in our Yu family."
"We should rejoice and celebrate together."
"So, you take 200,000 yuan back today and divide it into four parts, 50,000 yuan each for you, your parents, your eldest sister, and your second sister."
This made Yu Xinyue suddenly feel embarrassed.
"Old Five, this is not good, right?"
"You guys are developing in Binhai, and you still need a lot of money, especially since the housing prices in Binhai are so high."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "This congratulatory gift can be considered as unexpected wealth. If I really want to buy a house, I won't be short of these two hundred thousand."
Yu Xiangwan roared, "Third sister, stop pretending to refuse. If Old Five really goes along with it and doesn't give it to you, won't Second Sister blame you to death when she finds out?"
Yu Xinyue reached out and knocked Yu Xiangwan on the forehead.
"Don't talk bad about your second sister. She's not that kind of person."
The next moment, Yu Xinyue became worried again.
"I'm carrying such a large sum of cash. What if something unexpected happens on the way back?"
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "Third sister, when the bank opens, we'll go deposit it together. Let's deposit it into my account first."
"I'll pass it on to you."
Yu Xinyue glanced at her and said, "I still prefer cash. It feels so good to hold cash in your hand..."
At around seven in the morning, Yu Zhiming came out of the bedroom and had breakfast with his third and fourth sisters.
At the dinner table, Yu Xiangwan told Yu Zhiming another thing.
"Old Five, one of your patients, the girl with poor eyesight, her name was Luo something?"
"Luo Qing!" Yu Zhiming replied.
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "Yes, her name is Luo Qing. She also came to congratulate us yesterday and insisted on giving us a gift of 800 yuan."
"She said that during the day, she could vaguely see the outline of someone coming from the front."
"Old Five, how much can she recover? Will she be able to see clearly in the end?"
Yu Zhiming sighed and said, "It's hard to say. Her brain damage and optic nerve injury are very serious."
"To be honest, I feel really good that she has recovered enough to see the outlines of figures."
Yu Xiangwan uttered an "oh" and sighed, "What a pity! She looked like a pretty good girl."
"I saw that she was dressed in ordinary clothes, and I also knew that brain damage recovery medicine was very expensive, so I didn't think of accepting her gift."
"But she insisted on giving it to me, and was so anxious that she was about to cry."
Yu Xiangwan warned again, "Old Five, if your hospital has any good medicine, good recovery treatments, or other discounts, please think of that girl."
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "This brain damage and nerve recovery medicine is not only expensive, but also has little effect..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of a former patient.
Mr. Ji suffered from dementia because his brain was infected by a rare fungus, and the amino acid produced by the fungus caused his brain to become damaged.
But it is undeniable that this amino acid can actually enhance the activity of brain cells.
That kind of amino acid should also have the effect of promoting recovery from brain damage, right?
The more Yu Zhiming thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was not small. He picked up his cell phone and called Teacher Qi Yue.
The call was connected quickly.
"Zhi Ming, is there something wrong?" Qi Yue's lazy voice came from the phone.
Yu Zhiming said excitedly, "Teacher, I suddenly thought of Mr. Ji, the patient with brain dementia. The unique amino acids produced by the fungus in his brain, although toxic, can greatly promote brain cell activity."
"I wonder if it can be used to promote recovery from brain injuries?"
Qi Yue laughed heartily during the call and said, "Zhiming, you're only thinking about this now?"
"Let me tell you, that Ji amino acid has been studied in the laboratory under the cooperation of the Department of Neurology, our center, and Ning An."
"Let me tell you again, even though you didn't participate in anything, you are still one of the main members of the research team."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah!" He then heard Teacher Qi Yue continue on the line, "As for promoting brain injury recovery, we've verified it in animal experiments, and the recovery effect is quite encouraging."
"Perhaps in the near future, a highly effective drug for brain damage and neurological recovery will appear on the market."
Yu Zhiming asked excitedly, "Teacher, has Ji's amino acid research entered the clinical trial stage?"
“How can it be so fast!”
Qi Yue smiled and said on the phone: "Although this research is going smoothly, it will take at least a year before it enters the actual clinical trial stage."
Yu Zhiming said disappointedly: "By then, the daylily will be cold."
"Zhiming, did you take on a patient with brain damage?"
"Teacher, no, it's still the blind girl Luo Qing. Now she can see the outlines of people."
Yu Zhiming explained, "Her optimal recovery period is only the past six months. I suddenly thought that Ji's amino acids might be helpful to her, so I called you to ask."
"I didn't expect to have to wait so long. It seems she can't wait any longer."
After a moment of silence, Qi Yue's voice came from the phone again.
"To be clear, in Luo Qing's case, there are workarounds for using Ji's amino acids for experimental treatment."
"What's the workaround?" Yu Zhiming asked anxiously.
"Zhiming, do you know what extended medication is?"
Yu Zhiming searched his memory and replied honestly, "Teacher, I don't know."
Qi Yue chuckled during the call and said, "Expanded access can provide a way for patients with critical illnesses to obtain unapproved drug treatments."
"The primary purpose of expanded access is to diagnose, monitor, or treat a patient's disease, rather than to obtain safety and efficacy data for a drug, as is the case with regular clinical trials."
"Some people also call this compassionate use."
After hearing this, Yu Zhiming understood.
This is an emergency measure, where new drugs that are still in the development process are approved urgently for use on critically ill patients.
"Teacher, is the approval process for expanded use of this medication strict? Luo Qing's condition isn't critical."
Qi Yue chuckled during the call and said, "This concerns the health and life of the patient, so the approval process is naturally strict."
"However, the main side effect of Ji's amino acids, as we know from Mr. Ji's previous experience, is a slow and long-term process."
"It is controllable within a short period of time. We can calculate the dosage and monitor the medication, which can effectively avoid it."
"In this case, if Director Zhang and I apply and use some connections, the chances of it being approved are very high."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming was naturally very happy.
He thought of another guy.
"Teacher, there is another patient, an unlucky one, who suffers from lumbar tuberculosis."
"He was unlucky enough to be hit by someone..."
Yu Zhiming recounted the story of the bus driver in a few words.
Qi Yue replied on the phone: "Forget about this patient. He has a lumbar injury, not a brain injury."
"Furthermore, the cost of manufacturing and extracting Naji's amino acids is quite high nowadays, so it's not suitable to expand the trial."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh"...
After breakfast, Yu Zhiming packed up and prepared to go to work, and almost ran into Gu Qingning who was returning.
"Zhi Ming, my grandpa was sent away early this morning. I haven't had a good rest these past two days, so I came back to have a good sleep."
As he spoke, Gu Qingning came to the sofa, and his body softened and he fell on it.
"I'm used to the sofa, and I can't sleep anywhere else."
Yu Xiangwan reminded him, "No matter how comfortable sleeping on the sofa is, how comfortable can it be? During the day, we're not home. You can either sleep in the bedroom or on the flip floor..."
Before Yu Xiangwan could finish her words, Gu Qingning swiftly jumped up and scurried into the bedroom...
