Chapter 241 Reward: Ambergris



noon.

The students have already finished class.

With a creak!

Su Zhengnan had just finished compiling a treatment plan for a difficult and complicated case and was about to call his fifth senior brother, Li Huai'an, to discuss it when the door to the clinic was suddenly pushed open.

A pale-faced boy walked in. He was somewhat thin, and his eyes revealed a hint of fatigue.

Su Zhengnan quickly put down the documents in his hand and asked, "Student, are you feeling unwell?"

The boy stepped forward and sat down, replying in a low voice, "Doctor, I've been having terrible headaches lately, and I often feel palpitations. I also tend to get distracted in class, and sometimes I feel dizzy and sleepy."

"Put your hand out, let me take your pulse first."

Su Zhengnan observed the other party's expression and spoke calmly.

"Okay, sure."

The boy nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and extended his wrist.

Su Zhengnan reached out and placed his hand on the other person's wrist to take their pulse. He found that the pulse was weak and feeble, thin and slippery.

This is a sign of liver damage and yin deficiency.

Then, Su Zhengnan examined the other person's tongue.

The other person's tongue was reddish with a thin, sparse coating, a typical symptom of liver damage and fatigue.

After determining the other person's symptoms.

Su Zhengnan withdrew his right hand, which was used to take the pulse, and said, "It's not a big problem. I'll prescribe a health-preserving formula for you to try. You can cook porridge with this formula every day, and it should improve your symptoms."

"Oh, do I need to take medicine?"

The boy seemed somewhat surprised.

Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and said, "It's not a serious illness, just liver damage and fatigue. You'll be fine after some treatment."

As he spoke, Su Zhengnan had already written out the prescription and handed it to the other person, saying:

"Just cook it along with the porridge according to this recipe, but remember not to drink too much, otherwise it will be counterproductive."

"Yes, yes, I understand, doctor, thank you!"

The boy quickly took the prescription, thanked Su Zhengnan, and then turned and left the school clinic.

It's just a medicinal diet recipe for health preservation.

Su Zhengnan didn't even give him a prescription, so naturally he didn't have to pay any medical expenses.

This can be considered as saving these students some money!

After the other party left.

Su Zhengnan then took out his phone and dialed the number of his fifth senior brother, Li Huai'an.

Ring ring!

The phone rang only twice before it was answered.

Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "Hey, Fifth Senior Brother, I've come up with a treatment plan for this difficult case. Shall I send it to you later?"

"Hmm? You've come up with a treatment plan?"

Li Huai'an on the other end of the phone was slightly taken aback, then said happily, "Okay, okay, then send me the treatment plan quickly, I'll go and try it right away."

"Okay, I'll send it to you now."

Su Zhengnan nodded in agreement, then hung up the phone and sent over the treatment plan.

After sending the treatment plan.

Su Zhengnan leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh of relief. He had finally solved a difficult case these past few days, so it wasn't like he had taken their consultation fees for nothing.

Tap tap tap...

It was at this moment.

Another series of footsteps came from the doorway.

Su Zhengnan looked up and saw a girl who was over 1.7 meters tall walk in.

The other person's facial features are not bad, but there seem to be some pimples on their face, which affects their beauty.

The girl, with a hint of anxiety on her face, walked up to Su Zhengnan and said:

"Dr. Su, I've been having trouble sleeping lately. I can't fall asleep at night, and I'm tired during the day. Plus, I'm getting more and more pimples on my face. Can traditional Chinese medicine cure this?"

You're asking me if Traditional Chinese Medicine can cure it?

Su Zhengnan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "If that's the case, then it means you must have seen a Western doctor before?"

"Yes, I went to the Second People's Hospital before, but after taking the medicine for a while, my condition did not improve."

The girl nodded and said in detail, "And ever since I started taking those Western medicines, I sometimes get headaches and become easily irritable."

"Hmm, this is probably a side effect of the Western medicine. You've been taking it for a while now, haven't you?"

As he spoke, Su Zhengnan reached out and placed his hand on the other person's wrist, quickly making a decision in his mind.

"Your insomnia is likely caused by excessive heart fire and stagnation of liver qi. I'll prescribe a formula for you to regulate it and you'll be fine."

As he spoke, Su Zhengnan picked up a pen and wrote out a prescription while asking the other person's name and age.

After recording the other person's medical history.

Su Zhengnan handed her the completed form and said, "Take this form to the nurses' station outside to pay the bill. Remember to take less Western medicine in the future. Taking too much can have serious side effects and can easily lead to drug resistance."

"I understand, thank you, Dr. Su."

The girl nodded her thanks, took the order, and went to pay.

After paying the money.

The girl returned to Su Zhengnan, took the Chinese medicine he had prepared, and asked:

"Dr. Su, do you think it's possible to get rid of these pimples on my face? They're really annoying!"

Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "These pimples on your face are caused by hormonal imbalance due to insomnia. Once your insomnia is cured, these pimples will naturally disappear after a while, so don't worry too much."

"Oh, is that so?"

The girl was a little unsure, and touched her cheek, saying, "Will these pimples really disappear on their own?"

Su Zhengnan nodded and said, "Don't worry, it will disappear."

"Okay!"

After receiving Su Zhengnan's repeated affirmation, the girl finally felt relieved and walked out with the Chinese medicine in her hand.

Ding!

Not long after the girl left.

The system's mechanical prompt suddenly rang in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing today's daily task: Consult 28 students. You will receive a reward of '1500g of precious Chinese herbal medicine Ambergris'.]

"Uh, another reward of traditional Chinese medicine!"

With a light smile, Su Zhengnan spread his hands, and three pounds of ambergris appeared in his hand.

This thing is incredibly valuable these days!

Ambergris, also known as saliva, is the intestinal secretion of sperm whales.

This stuff is usually collected by hunting sperm whales.

However, sometimes the secretions from the sperm whale's intestines can be expelled and float to the surface of the sea, so they can sometimes be retrieved from the sea.

But the probability of that is extremely low.

Therefore, most people still choose to hunt sperm whales to obtain them.

However, sperm whales are now protected animals and hunting them is generally prohibited, so ambergris has become more precious than ever before.

Ambergris has a sweet and fishy smell, is astringent, and is non-toxic. It has medicinal effects such as promoting blood circulation, relieving pain, and promoting urination.

However, this substance is similar to musk; small amounts have an excitatory effect on the central nervous system of animals, while large amounts have an inhibitory effect.

Therefore, when using this medicine, it is necessary to properly combine the principal, assistant, adjuvant, and guide herbs.
