TCM Gaoyuan

In 1998, the county.

"Old Zhou, Old Zhou, here, here." Chen Yi, vice principal of the county middle school, waved towards the station.

A middle-aged man came over with a bag on his back. He smiled broadly when he saw Chen Yi. He went over to shake hands with him. Zhou Bo smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for many years, right?"

Vice Principal Chen Yi joked: "You, Editor-in-Chief Zhou, are a very busy man. You are making all the changes in the provincial capital. It is not easy for us little guys like you to see you."

"Go, go." Zhou Bo waved his hand.

Vice Principal Chen Yi helped him carry his things: "Come on, I'll take you to dinner. You haven't been back for many years, right?"

"Yes." Zhou Bo nodded and looked around: "The county has changed a lot."

Vice Principal Chen Yi walked out with him: "Yes, the road has been rebuilt, a lot of houses have been built, and a department store has been built. Do you still remember the ceramics factory by the river, right?"

Zhou Bo said: "Remember, what happened?"

Chen Yidao: "It can't be done anymore. Now it has been demolished. We are building a community and selling commercial housing."

Zhou Bo responded and asked: "Then where do you want to move?"

Vice Principal Chen Yi said: "I can't afford to live in that kind of place. I'm still living in the welfare room of my work unit. Let's go, let's get in the car."

Suddenly some wind blew, Zhou Bo tightened his clothes, and then covered his nose.

Chen Yi asked him: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Zhou Bo replied: "I haven't recovered from my cold."

Chen Yidao: "Then go and eat first. After that, I will take you to see the doctor."

Zhou Bo said, "Forget it, it's not like I haven't seen it before, it's not getting better. Besides, my company is in the provincial capital, so it's not convenient to come to the county for medical treatment and reimbursement."

But Chen Yi said: "No, I will take you to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. You don't have to pay for it. It only costs a few yuan and you can just drink a couple of medicines."

"Traditional Chinese medicine?" Zhou Bo was a little confused.

"Eat first, eat first." Chen Yi said: "I also called a few old classmates. They are already waiting at the restaurant. Go quickly."

The two got in the car and drove to the hotel.

After lunch and reminiscing, Chen Yi drove Zhou Bo to Zhangzhuang. On the way, he kept talking to Zhou Bo about the greatness of the miracle doctor he was going to see later.

However, Zhou Bo's brows furrowed more and more as he listened. He said, "If you keep talking like this, I won't go."

"What's wrong?" Chen Yi was confused.

Zhou Bodao: "The more you talk, the more evil you become. You are almost dying of human flesh and bones. Isn't this the plot written in a martial arts novel?"

Chen Yi joked: "Why, your publishing house also publishes martial arts novels?"

Zhou Bo said: "It's not that there are no martial arts novels, it's that there are no such things. There are Chinese medicine scammers everywhere now. Don't be fooled."

Chen Yi turned around while driving the car: "What, have you ever been cheated?"

"Drive well!" Zhou Bo closed his eyes.

……

The two came to Zhangzhuang, and Chen Yi found a place to park.

"Are they selling specialties there? There are people queuing up." Zhou Bo looked at the crowd with a look of surprise.

Chen Yi said, "That's the Chinese medicine clinic I'm going to take you to." Zhou Bo was speechless, and he said, "I may have seen more Chinese medicine scammers over the years than the students in your school who have been admitted to college."

Chen Yi rolled his eyes: "Who are you trying to eliminate? They are really capable. Dr. Gao Yuan here is the former director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. He came here to consult after his retirement. There is also a doctor named Liang Jiao, who the children call him. Grandpa Two Horns.”

"Grandpa Liangjiao?" Zhou Bo heard this strangely.

Chen Yi said: "Yes, Grandpa Liangjiao's name is Shen Congyun. He is good at massage for children. A few years ago, he also performed massage and acupuncture for adults. Now that he is old and can't do it anymore, he only performs massage for children. He charges two yuan each time. The price has not increased for so many years, so the children call him Grandpa Liang Jiao.”

"Only two cents? Don't you charge any other money?" Zhou Bo was very surprised.

Chen Yidao: "We won't accept it, unless some children are very sick. Massage alone will not have a good effect. However, such serious patients need Dr. Gao Yuan's treatment. Other ordinary children's daily diseases are only [-] cents."

"It's so cheap." Zhou Bo couldn't believe it. "Not to mention anything else, a trip to the hospital for my cold would cost at least three to five hundred. If it weren't for reimbursement, I wouldn't even be able to afford it."

Chen Yi pointed to the crowded clinic: "It only costs a few yuan here, so everyone is willing to come and see a doctor. There is really no way to say that in current hospitals, there are prescriptions that prescribe rice cookers. This is not It's obviously a money trap. Fortunately, we are all from the public sector and can still claim compensation. What should those farmers and ordinary people do?"

Zhou Bo looked at the clinic door again, with a slight change in his mind. He asked: "Li Shengli Joint Clinic? Then the most powerful doctor in this clinic should be Dr. Li Shengli, right?"

When Chen Yi heard this, he paused and said, "In a sense, that's true. However, he has passed away."

"Oh." Zhou Bo nodded.

Chen Yi led him forward: "Okay, hurry up and get in line."

Chen Yi took the call, but Zhou Bo became interested. He said, "You help me line up, and I'll go inside and take a look."

Zhou Bo walked in. The clinic was not big, with only a few old people working.Two old men sat on both sides, each with a consultation table, and there were many people lined up.There was also a skinny old man taking a nap in the corner, looking very uninspired, and another was grabbing medicine on the counter to collect money.

"Are there just four old people?" Zhou Bo looked around and couldn't see a single young figure.

Before Zhou Bo could ask questions, the old man who took the medicine spoke: "Dr. Shen, can you come and help me? I'm really overwhelmed."

Shen Congyun continued to take a nap, pretending not to hear.

Liu Sanquan said again: "Sir, don't pretend to be asleep. How old are you? How much sleep can you get in a day?"

Sure enough, Shen Congyun opened his eyes, glanced at Liu Sanquan, and cursed: "It's your job to get medicine, don't keep calling me around."

Liu Sanquan said: "Then if you are idle, you are also idle."

Shen Congyun said: "This is a craft job for me. I have to recharge my batteries. It takes up all my energy to give you medicine. When a sick child comes, how can I give massage to him?"

Liu Sanquan couldn't defeat him, so he could only say: "Doctor Gao, do you care?"

Gao Yuan, who was prescribing medicine for the patient, knew what was going on between them without even turning around. He said: "Shen Congyun, stop acting like an old man and waste your energy. How long have you not practiced? Yi Jin Jing Don’t you have to practice every day? Three days fishing and two days drying nets, you still have the nerve to say that!”

Only then did Shen Congyun stand up angrily.

Zhou Bo looked at these four old people. He had heard Chen Yi mention it on the way. He immediately judged the identities of these people. The one taking a nap against the wall should be "Grandpa Two Corners" Shen Congyun, and the one who spoke last should be It was the "miracle doctor" Gao Yuan.

Zhou Bo walked towards Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan glanced at him and said: "Queue up to get a doctor's appointment. If you have a critical illness, come directly. I'll go to Shen Congyun for a pediatric massage."

Zhou Bo said angrily: "I'll just take a look."

Gao Yuan ignored him and continued to diagnose and treat patients.

Zhou Bo looked at it for a while, but didn't think there was anything strange about it. He looked inside again and looked at the surrounding walls. He felt something was wrong when he came in before, but now he finally realized it.

"Yes, why is there no pennant?"
