Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1812 added another research and development project.

"Detoxifying Ointment" is a brand-new, highly pure anti-inflammatory and detoxifying medicine used to treat external injuries. It can be used for car accidents, insect bites, surgical cuts, post-operative sequelae, and any damage to the skin, fascia, muscles, etc. Theoretically, this new ointment can effectively compensate for antibiotic resistance to a large extent and is a new drug that fills certain technological gaps in the pharmaceutical market.

Due to extremely limited research and development capabilities, Bian Mu has not yet dared to upgrade it to a special-effect traditional Chinese medicine, but has only initially agreed to classify it as an "innovative new drug that is effective under the new concept".

For example, if a patient is injured while hiking and happens to have a small jar of this solid-color ointment on hand, they can simply rinse the wound, squeeze out the necrotic pus and blood, and apply the ointment immediately without bandaging. If the wound is deep, the ointment can be filled into the wound with a sterile cotton swab. If a suitable cotton swab is not available, other hard objects such as chopsticks or forks can be used for the same purpose after simple disinfection.

Compared to similar drugs, this ointment does not require an excessive degree of disinfection, which is a major innovation of this new ointment in terms of its broad applicability, safety, and tolerance for errors.

Theoretically speaking, the technology behind this ointment is already quite advanced.

Now, a brand-new medical challenge faces Bian Mu: the patient's nutritional status directly affects the normal absorption, transformation, sedimentation, and medical chemical metabolism of this new drug... In other words, the patient's nutritional status directly affects the drug's applicability, actual effectiveness, and duration of action...

From the perspective of Bian Mu and his team of researchers, Bian Mu had to rebuild a new technology model, inputting technical parameters such as nutrient metabolism and even nutrient blockage one by one and comparing them with the technology. In addition, he also had to conduct various highly targeted biochemical experiments.

At the same time, Bian Mu also had to go deep into various pharmacies to re-examine the effectiveness, limitations, and major technical shortcomings of similar traditional Chinese medicines and even Western medicines from a completely new perspective. Wow! The workload suddenly increased.

In other words, the trip to visit pharmaceutical companies in the surrounding small counties will have to be postponed again.

After typing away on the keyboard for a long time, Bian Mu drafted a preliminary expansion plan. He glanced down at the digital clock and thought, "Oh dear! It's getting late, time to rest!"
……

The next morning, Bian Mu was having breakfast at a folding table on the balcony when her phone rang.

Duan Hongyi's phone call.

"The system is working fine, and we can start a full trial today. Is there anything else you need to tell me?"

"Thank you for your hard work! Not for now. Summer vacation is in a month, so you should take your daughter on a trip. Our R&D team will reimburse the expenses."

"Travel?! No need, no need! At most, her mom will take her to the park to go boating or something. I'm much better off financially now! I'm planning to enroll her in a class during the holidays to improve her English grades! Actually, two months of vacation will be over in no time before school starts again."

"Oh! Learning English? That's great! Su Linwen knows a lot of people, let her recommend a place!"

"Okay, okay!"

"I'm hanging up now if there's nothing else!" Bian Mu said with a smile on the other end of the phone.

"You go ahead and do your thing, we'll talk later!" With that, Duan Hongyi hung up the phone.

Putting down his phone, Bian Mu stared out the window for a moment, lost in thought. In his opinion, Duan Hongyi was no pushover. He had only kept his mind closed for many years due to the pressures of life, but now that the worldly seal had been lifted... Duan Hongyi's innate special talents were gradually blossoming, and even Cao Yueyue was considering recruiting him! Duan Hongyi could now roughly estimate the value of his skills. Without much thought, he knew that in the future, he would have plenty of money, enough for the Duan family's young lady to study abroad for a few years. It was just right for her to start learning English now.

"There's no such thing as a truly simple person in this world! Once their potential is fully unleashed, they're all ruthless. I'll have to be extra careful when dealing with him in the future! Do you know who he's been in contact with lately? What sensitive topics has Cao Yueyue discussed with him in private?! The school leaders are watching Teacher Duan's career advance more and more, how could they not have some other ideas?! Right! Let's just take it one step at a time!" Thinking this, Bian Mu finished off all the side dishes on her plate, completely emptied the rice soup in her bowl, got up and went to the kitchen to tidy up the tableware, changed her clothes, and went to work.

……

Around 12 noon, I finally got off work. I saw seven or eight more patients with bone-setting today than usual. After going through the treatment procedures, Bian Mu's back tendons were tight in waves. No need to ask, he was exhausted.

I sat by the window and drank some plain water. I pondered going to the nearby porridge stall to get some traditional Chinese food.

The phone rang.

Professor Mi's phone call.

“An old classmate of mine came all the way from Nanjin. He has a problem with his teeth, about three or four, symmetrically on both sides. He's been taking care of them for four or five months, but they haven't gotten better. He was worried and thought of me. Is it convenient for me to come here at noon? Can I take a look at your teeth?”

That place was a dental clinic for the elderly that Professor Mi had specially set up. All the related expenses were raised by the elderly gentlemen and ladies. For each patient treated, the elderly health association they founded would give Bian Mu a consultation fee from its self-raised fund, which was more than what a regular dental hospital would give. Of course, Bian Mu's skills far exceeded that price.

Whenever Bian Mu had free time, he would go and treat the various dental problems of the elderly men and women, and the results were always quite good.

Professor Mi and his colleagues are much more mature in their conduct and have always kept things confidential. They communicate only within the association and rarely interact with the outside world. To this day, among the colleagues at the "Xin G20" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, only Nurse Ye knows a little about the inside story, while the other colleagues know almost nothing about it.

Even though Su Linwen and Qi Yuewei are such close friends, they were completely unaware of this.

"Okay, just one?" Bian Mu corrected himself over the phone.

To be honest, Bian Mu was somewhat averse to this kind of self-funded medical treatment. In his opinion, this kind of dental clinic had a hint of unfair distribution of medical resources, and was just not quite right.

Normally, unless Professor Mi calls, he rarely takes on similar dental work on his own initiative.

"Just one. You're really pressed for time with developing a new drug lately. It's a big deal, and I can't afford to waste your precious time. We're just too close to each other to push it away. Besides, it seems like only you can handle this right now."

"It's unlikely. The dental clinic in Nanjin is quite advanced. Since the relevant procedures have already been completed in Nanjin, the problem is probably not in the teeth. If something is found, should I treat it here or transfer it to your clinic?"

"We'll see when the time comes. I'll leave it to you!"

"Okay!" Bian Mu said, then hung up the phone.
