At home.
Gu Fangzhou looked at the documents Su Zhengnan sent him and became more and more shocked, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
"This was written by my apprentice?"
Gu Fangzhou felt that even he gained something from reading these things, let alone others. Anyone who studies traditional Chinese medicine would find them useful, and the usefulness would be extraordinary.
It's important to know that the materials compiled by Su Zhengnan explain the theoretical knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine from easy to difficult, and also include case studies.
More importantly...
The dialectical theories in the materials are completely integrated with the current symptoms, and are even more detailed than current textbooks.
A medical book of more than 400,000 words cannot be read all at once.
It took Gu Fangzhou a whole week to finish reading it, and then he called Su Zhengnan directly and said:
"I've reviewed the materials you sent. They're well-organized and suitable for publication. I'll have your senior brother help you contact a publisher!"
"Hehe, okay, thank you, teacher!"
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded, then asked, "By the way, teacher, do you have any comments on the materials I've compiled? If so, I can make corrections..."
"I don't have any comments, it's very well written. Even I, as a teacher, benefited greatly from reading it!"
Gu Fangzhou pondered for a moment and said, "Your medical skills have probably surpassed mine, which makes me very happy. Go do what you want to do. If there's anything I can do for you, just tell me."
"Okay, thank you, teacher. I understand."
Su Zhengnan thanked Old Master Gu, and the two chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone.
Then, Su Zhengnan made a phone call to his senior brother, Chu Xingyun.
The phone rang only a few times before it was answered.
"If the teacher says there are no problems, then there are naturally no problems on my end either. I'll contact the publisher for you later."
After exchanging a few words with Su Zhengnan, Chu Xingyun smiled and said on the other end of the phone.
"Then I'll have to trouble you with this, Senior Brother."
Su Zhengnan smiled and thanked him, then hung up the phone after confirming that the book could be published.
However, on the other hand, that's another story.
Publishing a medical book is easy, but increasing sales is not.
How many people will buy this medical book and read and study it?
This is the most important issue.
If a medical book is not read or studied by anyone, then its usefulness is almost zero.
However, this problem was not a problem at all for Su Zhengnan.
After all, his second senior brother is the dean of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. If their school directly orders a batch for teaching and tutoring, there will be no problem at all.
Yes, that's right.
Mo Chaoyang has become the dean of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, not just the vice dean.
The previous dean retired at the end of August, and Mo Chaoyang successfully took over his position, becoming the dean of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Soon, another week had passed.
Senior Brother Chu Xingyun has already contacted a publishing house and discussed the specific time for publishing the medical book.
Su Zhengnan also gave it a good title – "Su's Collection of Clinical Practices in Traditional Chinese Medicine".
With its unassuming title and simple cover design, this medical book is scheduled to be printed and published in mid-October.
Of course, both Elder Gu and Chu Xingyun wrote inscriptions for this medical book.
With the endorsement of his teacher and senior brother, Su Zhengnan believed that the sales of this medical book should be quite good.
.............
This day is Wednesday!
The weather outside is still quite hot, but it's not as hot as before.
As time goes by, the scorching heat of late summer is coming to an end, and the weather should cool down in a while.
Su Zhengnan sat in the clinic, sipping his ginseng and goji berry tea. He glanced at the trading software on his computer; the stock had risen by several dozen points, and had been hitting the daily limit for almost the entire period.
Clearly, this stock has entered its final sprint, which is also the period of its most frenzied rise.
After glancing at the stock's trend, Su Zhengnan was already preparing to make his move.
In nearly a year and a half, Xijiang Copper's share price has risen from 0.76 yuan to 51.2 yuan, an increase of almost 67 times.
During this period of consecutive limit-up days, Su Zhengnan's 20 million shares have grown to over 1.3 billion, more than doubling in value.
He wasn't greedy; he could make his move in a few days.
If it continues to hit the daily limit for several consecutive days.
Ring ring!
Soon, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class at noon.
Su Zhengnan shut down the stock trading software on his computer, straightened his white coat, and waited quietly for his students to come for consultations.
Not many students have come to see him for treatment during this period; it seems that most of them have gone to Sun Huaiwei's Western medicine clinic.
With a creak!
It was at this moment.
The door to the outpatient clinic was pushed open.
A young and beautiful woman walked in, one hand covering her stomach, and slowly sat down in front of Su Zhengnan.
"Hello Dr. Su, I heard that you can use acupuncture for pain relief, is that true?"
The girl's voice was clear and melodious, like a nightingale singing in a valley.
Su Zhengnan looked up and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Then he smiled slightly and said:
"Oh, it's you! What's wrong?"
"My period just started, and I have terrible stomach pains!"
Yang Mi lowered her head, a blush rising on her face, and said somewhat shyly:
"I...I heard from a senior student that you offer acupuncture for pain relief, so..."
Yes, that's right!
The person who arrived was Yang Mi, whom Su Zhengnan had met in the cafeteria before. It was clear that she had successfully been admitted to the Beijing Film Academy.
But what he didn't expect was...
The first thing the patient asked me to do when she came to me for treatment was to ask me to give her acupuncture to relieve her pain.
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and looked at Yang Mi, saying:
"I can indeed use acupuncture to relieve your menstrual cramps, but acupuncture is only an auxiliary treatment. We need to find out the cause of your menstrual cramps in order to treat the root cause."
"Give me your hand, let me take your pulse first."
"Okay, sure."
Yang Mi nodded blankly, then stretched out her little wrist.
Su Zhengnan reached out and placed his hand on the other person's wrist, carefully feeling the pulse, and said:
"Your pulse is alright. This is menstrual cramps caused by insufficient Qi and blood. You must have been consuming a lot of cold drinks lately, right?"
"Oh, Dr. Su, how did you know I've been eating a lot of cold drinks lately?"
Yang Mi looked at Su Zhengnan with some surprise.
Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "I can tell from your pulse that you should eat less cold drinks in the future, as they are not good for your health. I will prescribe some Chinese medicine to regulate your body first, and then I will give you acupuncture to relieve the pain."
As he spoke, Su Zhengnan picked up a pen and wrote out a prescription, then casually handed it to Yang Mi, saying:
"Take this form to the nurses' station to pay the fee, and then come back to pick up your medication."
"Okay, sure."
Yang Mi nodded in agreement, took the form, and went to the nurses' station to pay the fee.
When she returned to the TCM clinic after paying the fees.
Su Zhengnan had already prepared the medicine. He then got up, took out some silver needles, disinfected them, and pointed to the bed next to him, saying:
"Lie down over there, I'll give you acupuncture."
"Okay!"
Yang Mi obediently walked to the hospital bed next to her and lay down.
To be honest, Yang Mi looked very young at this time, and many parts of her body had not fully developed, unlike how beautiful she looked later.
Su Zhengnan glanced at the other person, and then inserted the silver needle in his hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Su Zhengnan's needle insertion speed was both fast and accurate.
Hegu (LI4), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Xuehai (SP10), Geshu (BL17), Zusanli (ST36)...
In the blink of an eye, Yang Mi's body was covered with silver needles, and a tingling sensation came from the acupoints.
"ah...."
The feeling was both wonderful and comfortable, and she couldn't help but moan softly.
In no time at all.
Yang Mi felt that the pain in her abdomen had lessened considerably, and a relaxed expression appeared on her face. The persistent cramping pain seemed to have been relieved.
Leave the needle in for a few minutes.
Su Zhengnan removed the silver needles from Yang Mi's body and said, "Alright, the acupuncture is over. Remember to take the medicine back and drink it. Two doses a day, and it should take about half a month."
"Does this Chinese medicine need to be decocted?"
Yang Mi straightened her clothes, stood up, and looked at Su Zhengnan, asking a question.
Su Zhengnan glanced at her and said, "If you don't know how to cook it yourself, you can ask Nurse Zhou at the nurses' station to cook it for you."
"Okay, I understand."
Yang Mi smiled happily and thanked Su Zhengnan:
"Thank you, Dr. Su. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have time!"
"No need to be polite. You don't need to eat. Just remember to take your medicine on time."
Su Zhengnan replied with a smile.
Afterwards, Yang Mi left with the Chinese medicine in her hand.
Watching the other person's departing figure, Su Zhengnan couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head. Speaking of which, Yang Mi seemed quite lively at this time, unlike the cold and aloof person she appeared after becoming famous.
After Yang Mi left, Su Zhengnan sat in the clinic and continued to wait for students to come for medical treatment.
Tap tap tap...
After a while, footsteps were heard at the door!
Su Zhengnan assumed it was the next student coming to see the doctor, and without looking up, said, "Please sit down. What's wrong?"
"Uh, Dr. Su, I didn't come here for a medical consultation."
A strong, resonant voice rang out.
Su Zhengnan looked up and smiled, "Oh, it's Vice Dean Wang. Is there something you need from me?"
Wang Jinsong smiled and sat down, saying, "Actually, it's nothing much. I just came to ask Dr. Su if you know any doctors at the First People's Hospital?"
"Huh? The First People's Hospital?"
Su Zhengnan was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I do know some people, but what's wrong, Vice Dean Wang...?"
"Well, it's not really a big deal. It's just that my brother-in-law's wife is sick and needs to have her gallbladder removed."
Wang Jinsong sighed and said, "My wife thinks that the surgical techniques at other hospitals are not good enough, so she wants her sister-in-law to have this surgery at the First People's Hospital. But when we went to inquire before, the surgery schedule there was already full, and we couldn't get an appointment at all."
"So, Vice President Wang, you're trying to find someone you know to get an appointment and be admitted to the hospital, right?"
Su Zhengnan looked at the other party with a smile, thought for a moment and said, "Since Vice Dean Wang has already brought it up, how about this, I'll make a call and ask later, and then get back to you, okay?"
"Alright, alright, then I'll trouble you, Dr. Su."
Wang Jinsong nodded and expressed his gratitude.
Perhaps for others, it is very difficult to get an appointment and be admitted to the First People's Hospital of Beijing.
But for Su Zhengnan, it was no difficult task at all; he could simply make a phone call to his fifth senior brother.
Then, Su Zhengnan took out his phone and called his fifth senior brother, Li Huai'an.
Li Huai'an readily agreed to Su Zhengnan's request.
Who told him to be his junior brother!
