Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1859, No. 56 Middle School

Because of the trial production of "Detoxifying Plaster", the production pace of "Hongyang" Pharmaceutical Company was immediately increased to full capacity. Everyone in the company had high hopes for the new drug, and everyone was full of energy! As the main party in charge of the contract, the pharmaceutical factory has been implementing the production schedule recommendation issued by Bian Mu's side without any compromise.

Led by Sanqiangzi and "Knife Face," the five-person technical inspection team would go to the pharmaceutical factory every few days to oversee all aspects of the work. Only after all the technical details were fully implemented would Sanqiangzi and the others check off their work before returning to the city.

When Sanqiangzi and the others went there, Bian Mu gave each of them a subsidy of 300 yuan. Sanqiangzi and the others voluntarily reduced it by 100 yuan, so each person received 200 yuan a day, and the canteen at the pharmaceutical factory provided meals.

Unlike the other team members, Sanqiangzi and "Dao Tiao Lian" went with technical specifications and solutions, which were kept secret! Moreover, Bian Mu was meticulous and cautious. The technical solutions that Sanqiangzi and "Dao Tiao Lian" received were different. The two understood each other perfectly and never discussed the technical details with each other.

Given the long distance and the tiring journey, Bian Mu specially bought a new minivan in the car market. The paperwork and name were registered in the studio that Bian Mu built. Usually, whoever goes to the factory for inspection will drive it there, and then return it to the free parking lot near the clinic after finishing.

Bian Mu personally drove the herb farmer, Lao Pei, there. The old man naturally brought his technical solutions with him. For special production processes, the old man had to personally go to the front line to apply the herbs and adjust the technical parameters, all while wearing his work clothes. Of course, all the technical details were kept secret.

The renovated workshop added several key AI facilities, all of which were devised by Duan Hongyi and Bian Mu together. The relevant patent applications had already been completed, making them joint patents.

Every three days, someone would drive Duan Hongyi to have a follow-up examination. This was considered an industry secret, and no one other than Duan Hongyi and Bian Mu was allowed to know about it.

Zhang Jinsi and others were never allowed to get involved in this matter. Including Nurse Ye, the other colleagues at the clinic were not allowed to get involved in the production and sale of the new drug. Before long, everyone figured it out. The clinic was the clinic, and the pharmaceutical factory was the pharmaceutical factory. Each had its own business. Bian Mu absolutely did not allow any overlap between the two. In this way, both sides naturally became orderly, so as to avoid a messy situation that would be difficult to resolve in the end.

……

It was raining moderately at noon that day, and some streets were flooded. The area in front of the lobby of "Xin G20" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic was always wet. The nurses and interns would go over from time to time to clean it up with mops and other tools. A lot of disposable raincoats and umbrellas were also given out.

For safety reasons, Bian Mu suspended all the routine inspections of the inspection teams under Sanqiangzi and Duan Hongyi. Anyway, the normal procedures had already been completed, and the first batch of new drugs would be off the production line soon.

Just as it was almost time to leave work, Mr. Wang's wife returned from a business trip out of town and paid a visit as soon as possible.

Bian Mu asked the intern, Xiao Shang, to go out and make arrangements while Bian Mu continued to give acupuncture to an old man. The old man was just over 80 years old and couldn't sleep well at night. He always suspected that there were thorns moving around in his hands, feet, and limbs. The constant agitation had made the old man a little thin. Bian Mu diagnosed the old man with interannual maladjustment syndrome. On the surface, it looked uncomfortable, but in fact, this abnormal phenomenon was a sign of longevity.

Let's try acupuncture first and see the effect.

……

I can finally get off work.

Bian Mu went to the reception area and chatted with Teacher Wang's wife for a while.

"I'm sorry! I just got back from a business trip, and unfortunately... it's raining quite heavily, so the school visit has to be postponed..." Teacher Wang's husband said politely with a smile.

"That's alright. On rainy days, we can actually investigate more of the factors that contribute to the disease. The security guards over there are strict, so I'll have to find a friend to show me the way. Is that inconvenient for you?" Bian Mu said politely with a smile.

“It’s convenient, it’s convenient! I was just worried about causing you trouble, so I came back specifically for this. My wife told me that what you said makes perfect sense, and we will definitely do our best to cooperate with the relevant treatment.”

"It's kind of you to be so understanding of the difficulties we face at work, please wait a moment!" After saying that, Bian Mu made a phone call to a patient's family member. After a few words, Bian Mu hung up the phone.

"The school has already arranged for us to have a meal at their cafeteria. By the way, Mr. Xu, right? Does your wife go to her school often?" Bian Mu asked casually with a smile.

"I'm usually busy and rarely go there. Even if I have to go to school, I wait at the school gate. I'm a bit socially awkward, so I've never walked around the campus."

"Oh, I see... Please wait a moment! I'll go to the changing room to change." With that, Bian Mu got up and left.

……

Mr. Xu currently works for a chemical company and often travels for work. Today he drove his own car, a new car worth less than 20 yuan. The interior still had some residual plastic smell, but thankfully, it got much better after opening the windows for a while.

Along the way, the two chatted casually for a few minutes. Bian Mu mentally sketched a simple picture of Mr. Xu in front of him: a disguised freeloader, whose parents were about to retire. His father was a senior executive in human resources at a large company, and his mother was the director of the office at a public institution. In a few years, the two elders would also retire to the second line.

Mr. Xu graduated from a prestigious university with a degree in humanities, which is somewhat related to law. He holds a double degree, is a middle manager, and occasionally has to do some sales promotions. His work performance is mediocre, and he's just coasting along until retirement.

Bian Mu felt that Mr. Xu appeared to be gentle and refined on the surface, but actually... his big eyes concealed a lot of unknown aspects...

Bian Mu didn't care too much about other people's lives; he was focused on finding the medicinal ingredient in 56 so he could give himself a satisfactory answer.

……

At the school gate, a man in a jacket and shirt was waiting for Bian Mu and his companions with an umbrella. He looked to be in his early fifties, wearing dark glasses and appearing refined. The license plate number had already been given to the man on the way. When the car arrived at the school gate, the man smiled and waved to the car, then gestured to the male security guard in the duty room.

The security guard on duty did not dare to delay and quickly pressed the button to open the electric gate and let people in.

……

Through Bian Mu's introduction, Mr. Xu learned that the person in front of him was the vice principal of the full-time middle school, a special-grade physics teacher in Lijin City, and a very prestigious figure.

After chatting for a few minutes in front of the teaching building, the vice principal in charge of teaching went home for dinner.

Bian Mu was accompanied by Mr. Xu for a stroll around the campus. The vice principal in charge of teaching should have given prior instructions that along the way, security guards and teachers on duty would just smile at the two of them and move on.

The two of them went to check out Teacher Wang's preparation room. It was an audio-visual room with cubicles, one for each person. Teacher Wang's math group was an important preparation group, and the distance between the workstations was a bit small. Looking through the glass window, it seemed somewhat crowded inside.

Mr. Xu has a sharp eye.

"The third from the back of the row against the wall should be her workstation. The asparagus fern on the corner of the desk is one I cultivated, and the teddy bear next to it is a gift from my sister." After carefully examining the glass window for a while, Mr. Xu pointed out the location of his wife's workstation to Bian Mu.

Bian Mu nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.
