Chapter 1810 New Additives

Objectively speaking, among their peers, the Dong sisters can be considered top-notch technical experts, but they were just unlucky and ended up in such a miserable state. Now, they have a higher-level company platform and a technical expert like Bian Mu who is also their good friend. Seeing that the sisters are gradually getting out of their bad luck, they are naturally very happy.

"Completely transparent... then the purity of your drug must be high enough. Can Yiyoukang get it?" Dong Yushan was knowledgeable and soon figured out some clues.

"Yiyoukang has good conditions in all aspects, but unfortunately, I can't really use it. I am currently planning to cooperate with a small county-level pharmaceutical factory. In a few days, I will invite a few friends to go over and inspect it."

"From what you said, it will cost a lot of money to upgrade a small county-level pharmaceutical factory? 'Yiyoukang' is too large and the cost of upgrading is too high. It doesn't seem worthwhile to reset the production workshop. After all, yours is a brand-new new concept Chinese medicine. The board of directors will approve it soon. After all, the company's current performance is poor, and they won't take risks with us, right!" Dong Yushan said with a smile.

"I can't hide anything from you. That's what I mean. The additives used in our medicine must ensure the activity, purity, and non-oxidation of the ointment. They are very different from the design concepts of the ordinary Chinese patent medicine additives that you two used to work on at 'Liushunrong'. So... you two have a lot of work to do! Engineer Dong has just recovered not long ago, so don't worry too much. Just take it one step at a time! I'm not afraid of you two laughing at me. In this regard, I know a little bit. We can just brainstorm together and discuss it. We don't want to put all the research and development tasks on your shoulders." Bian Mu explained with a smile.

"That doesn't matter. I can still take on some responsibilities. I still have my sister here! I know you are a talented person. The most we can do is to provide you with some general industry operating procedures. We are unable to do anything too much. Don't worry! My sister will be fine." Dong Yushan responded with a smile.

"I have already talked to Assistant Zhang. She will arrange anything you need. In addition, this project is a private matter for Yiyoukang after all. If it is inconvenient, you can consider going to the Xiaobailou Laboratory to do the daily subjects of logic screening. I will complete the relevant procedures in two days. It is very convenient. I will pay for the relevant expenses."

"Okay, it seems that your career is on the rise!" Dong Yuhu said with a smile.

"Let's give it a try! Making money through a platform like a medical clinic is not the right way after all, and it's a bit difficult to get over the hurdle in my heart. The research and development and production of Chinese patent medicines is a business. As long as the medicines are new, easy to use and cheap, I will be the winner. I will feel at ease if I can make some money. In addition, if this is successful, you two will both get dividends, but... there may be a lot of people involved in all aspects, so you two may not get much money." Bian Mu smiled and explained for a long time.

"Hey! Why are we talking about money? All things are difficult at the beginning. As long as this medicine can open up some new market opportunities, I believe you can develop better varieties of Chinese patent medicines in the future. You should not only seek money but also not pursue it. I believe you will achieve great success in the future!" Dong Yushan responded with a smile.

"No, no! We just have to advance and retreat together. Let me remind you two again that the additives we are developing are a brand-new concept. It is a new attempt based on the principle of essential additives in the original pharmaceutical industry. So... your workload will increase. You must pay attention to rest, especially you, Engineer Dong!" Bian Mu emphasized with a smile.

"It's okay! I'm much better now. Besides, the new concept must take a new path. If the idea is wrong, the laboratory will definitely not be able to proceed. It will just take a little more time. Don't worry, I can handle it!" Dong Yuhu responded with a smile.

While chatting and laughing, the three of them talked for a while about the special topic of additives for mass production of traditional Chinese medicines. The Dong sisters were surprised to find that Bian Mu's time at "Liushunrong" was not in vain, and he had become quite professional in all aspects.

……

In the dead of night, two layers of waterproof mats were laid on the floor in advance. Bian Mu arranged the rare books donated by Mr. Cui one by one. Wow! There are so many books of all kinds! Wearing a disposable mask and gloves, Bian Mu sat on the floor and roughly screened the catalog of each book...

After sorting and organizing the items into categories, more than two hours had passed.

Finally, Bian Mu selected two volumes of medical notes and put them aside to flip through them casually. He stuffed the remaining rare books into book covers one by one and carefully stored them in two small trolley cases. These things were very rare and had to be stored in a bank safe early tomorrow morning.

Sitting back at the desk, Bian Mu carefully flipped through the two volumes of medical notes, original handwritten copies from more than 500 years ago, carbon-sealed books, probably with the intention of passing them down for many generations.

Among them was an old piece of news that mentioned that two fellow disciples were making a medicine, which interested Bian Mu very much.

The book says that in the past, the paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River were infested with all kinds of insects. In that era, most farmers could not get enough to eat and their physical fitness was generally very poor. The master of the two men developed a special medicine for various insect bites in the paddy fields. If the patient saw the master, he would recover quickly after using the medicine.

The same medicine was given to other patients by the two brothers, but the condition sometimes got better and sometimes got worse. What's worse, some patients were fine without the medicine, but after using the medicine, the condition got worse. The patient's family members were so angry that they beat the brother.

The two brothers were so angry that they closed the door and pondered the problem for a while. As a result, after half a year of hard work, they still couldn't completely solve the problem.

Later, their master came back from a business trip to the capital. After listening to their story, the old man couldn't help laughing. The two hurriedly asked for advice. The old man then said that all the farmers who had seen him, regardless of their wealth, must drink three bowls of dumpling soup every day while using that kind of external medicine. Moreover, a little sesame oil must be added to each bowl of dumpling soup. Those who had no money or food could go out and borrow it. Otherwise, they should not use the medicine. Otherwise, he could not guarantee that it would be effective.

After reading this, Bian Mu couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha... I didn't expect the ancients to be so smart. In that era, the common people were generally poor, every household was malnourished, and the average life expectancy was frighteningly low. No matter how good the medicine was, it might not work quickly. Only by drinking three bowls of dumpling soup a day can the human body obtain the most basic energy. Otherwise, no matter how good the medicine was, it could not maintain the most basic pharmacological metabolism... It makes sense! Then... nowadays, everyone has a serious overnutrition. Shouldn't the so-called detoxifying ointment I developed do the opposite?! Others add nutrition, what about me? Should I do something special with the additives..." Thinking of this, Bian Mu was suddenly inspired. He quickly turned on his laptop, entered the password, called out his treasured pharmaceutical secrets, and went through it carefully several times from beginning to end!

Gradually, Bian Mu finally discovered some tricks...

At the same time, Bian Mu was surprised to discover a drawback that has been hidden for many years in most Chinese patent medicines...
