Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 453: The Value of the Yongle Encyclopedia

Hearing Fangyan's words, Second Brother Ding Jian immediately became alert.

His eyes immediately turned to Fangyan.

"Is this true?"

Fang Yan nodded and confirmed to Ding Jian:
"I found this recipe recently when I was sorting out the Imperial Collection of Medical Prescriptions."

Of course Ding Jian knew what Fang Yan had been doing recently.

After hearing this, he asked with some concern:
"If you take out the recipe and use it, will it be suspected of leaking secrets?"

Fangyan responded:
"Don't worry, that won't happen, because the prescription we find must also undergo clinical trials to confirm its efficacy."

Tang Maoqian on the side took over the conversation and asked:
"So what Junior Brother Fang means is... this prescription has not yet been clinically tested?"

Fangyan shook his head and said:
"It's not that it hasn't been clinically tested. Yesterday, I applied this medicine to an elderly man who broke his leg. I just don't know the result yet."

Fangyan did not hide anything from them, but explained the matter clearly. As for whether to use it in the end, it was up to Ding Jian to decide.

Sure enough, after hearing Fangyan's words, Ding Jian frowned slightly and fell into thought.

He actually trusts dialects quite a lot.

The junior brother definitely cannot harm him. The reason why he took out the medicine that had no effect was because he was worried that he would mess around here and get something wrong with his body.

Anyway, everything is done from the perspective of worrying about him.

"How confident are you about the effectiveness of the medicine?"

After hearing this question, Fang Yan thought for a moment before answering:
"Eighty to ninety percent sure."

"After all, it is the Yanxia Shengxiao Fang that was included in the Yongle Encyclopedia. And just looking at the ingredients, there are quite a lot of strong herbs in it, such as tiger leg bones, pangolins, black dog spine, wild boar teeth, Chuanwutou, Zewutou, Caowutou, Pinellia, Asarum..."

Ding Jian also learned some pharmacology knowledge from Lu Donghua, so of course he knew what those things were said in the dialect.

At the same time, we also know what the items included in the Yongle Encyclopedia represent.

Fang Yan saw that Ding Jian was moved and continued:
"And the prescription only has one sentence about its efficacy: it cures all injuries, swellings, pains, and fractures. It doesn't mention anything else. For this kind of ancient prescription, the fewer words it has, the more potent its effect."

Ding Jian was also surprised when he heard the result:

"You sound so arrogant?"

Fang Yan smiled and nodded and said:
“Yeah, I feel pretty crazy too.”

"Otherwise I wouldn't have brought it out to tell you."

Fangyan gave the "Bone-setting Plaster for Illness" to Old Chen yesterday. Although we don't know its specific efficacy yet, all the prepared plasters are made according to the ingredients and processes in the prescription.

Originally, he hadn't intended to give it to his fellow brothers.

After all, they have been together for so long now, and they are almost ready.

But after seeing Ding Jian's situation today, Fang Yan decided to take this thing out again.

It's also good to let them get better one day earlier.

If they stay any longer, they will really develop psychological problems.

Ding Jian hesitated for a few seconds and said:
"Okay, then you tell me how to make it, and I'll ask someone to buy some herbs and prepare it."

Fangyan waved his hand and said:
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. You can just send someone to Dazhalan Tongrentang and ask them to buy the plaster made yesterday."

"I made about a dozen pieces yesterday, and I used two. The rest are still sitting there."

Ding Jian immediately said:

"Okay! I'll arrange for someone to buy it right away."

After saying this, he immediately called someone over, and then asked him to drive to Tong Ren Tang in Dashilan and buy all the prepared plasters according to what Fang Yan had just said.

There are so many patches in total. If the effect is really as effective as described in the original recipe, then it should be enough.

Wait until people go out to drive and purchase.

At this time, Tang Maoqian also said excitedly:

"If this medicine really has such miraculous effects, then if it is promoted, our national sports schools will be big consumers."

Hearing his words, Fangyan responded:
"This medicine cannot be promoted and can only be used by a small number of people."

"Hmm?" Tang Maoqian looked at Fangyan.

Without even answering in dialect, Ding Jian said:

"Don't you think about how many kilograms of tiger bones are produced in the whole country in a year?"

"Many companies are scrambling to get these tiger bones, some are making wine, some are making medicine, and the only ones left for making ointments are probably one or two tiger bones at most."

"And this medicine only uses tiger leg bones, so the amount in it is even less."

Fangyan nodded:
"Yes, the situation is exactly what my second brother said."

Tang Maoqian thought for a moment and said:

"Then we can go abroad to buy tigers, such as Siberian tigers, Bengal tigers, Sumatran tigers, Malayan tigers..."

After all, he is about to go abroad with the team, and his vision is to look at the entire earth.

But after hearing what he said, Ding Jian still shook his head:

"I think it's a tough call. Purchasing these things requires foreign exchange. Our country has more important things to do with foreign exchange. How can we use it to purchase these things?"

Tang Maoqian said:
"So this secret recipe... can really only be used by a small number of people?"

Fangyan responded:
"Unless a new Chinese medicine can be developed to replace the effect of tiger bones, this secret recipe can only be used by a small number of people."

Tang Maoqian thought about it and finally nodded.

There is no way, the raw materials limit the effectiveness of this prescription.

Unless there is some way to find a replacement.

Or you can artificially breed a large group of tigers, just like raising pigs, and raise a bunch of them.

Both of these methods are almost impossible to achieve. Then he thought of another question and said:

"By the way, aren't your other brothers also in the hospital?"

"There are only a dozen of these, and there won't be enough for others."

As a fellow martial artist, Tang Maoqian also went to visit others.

The dialect explains:
"Fourth Brother was hit on the head, his bones are fine, so he doesn't need it. Third Brother has some injuries to his chest bones, and the eldest brother has a broken arm, so only the third and eldest brothers need one or two plasters, which should be enough."

Tang Maoqian finally came to his senses and nodded:
"Oh, it seems so."

The visit lasted a long time, and he wasn't particularly sure what injuries the people had suffered.

Only Fangyan remembered clearly the injuries of his fellow brothers.

That’s why I concluded that Second Brother would not be able to use up all the dozen or so pieces of bone-setting ointment he bought for his illness.

Tang Maoqian smacked his lips and said:

"Speaking of which, Dan Haoran is really amazing."

As an eyewitness, the second brother Ding Jian said with some lingering fear:
"Fortunately, my junior brother was there at the time, otherwise we would have been wiped out."

Xiao Li, who had the same experience, nodded. At that time, he was really scared by Dan Haoran so much that his legs and feet were not working properly.

That is to say, when he was almost attacked by Shan Haoran, his junior master stepped forward and blocked the opponent.

Now every time he thinks about it, he feels his heart boiling.

If it weren't for his junior uncle, he wouldn't be able to train here now, and he would probably be lying in a hospital bed... Based on Shan Haoran's personality, his situation might be even worse.

……

Next, Tang Maoqian and Xiao Li took Fangyan around the entire venue and got to know the people there.

Fangyan also saw a few people whose faces looked vaguely familiar, but whose names he couldn't remember.

These people all played supporting roles in Xiao Li's movies in their previous life.

It is said that when a person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Xiao Li acts himself, and of course he has also thought about promoting people in the team.

If he recommends someone who has talent, the director will of course be happy to use him.

There were a few people from his class, but Fangyan could only remember their appearances and couldn't remember their names.

He is not as famous as the later Wu Jin, Zhen Zhidan, Zhao Wenzhuo and Wu Yue.

It was about 40 minutes later.

The man who went to buy the house has returned.

Deng Nanxing actually came back with him.

"Why are you here?" Fang Yan asked Deng Nanxing.

Deng Nanxing looked around curiously and said:
"Come and see what you are playing!"

Fangyan asked:

"Is the store not busy?"

Deng Nanxing shook his head and said:

"You're not busy at all. When patients come to visit you, they just turn around and leave when they hear you're not here."

"The patients who came in at noon today were all follow-up patients. I did the follow-up visits as you instructed, and now I have nothing to do. It's even quieter in the afternoon. I almost fell asleep in the store."

"Then I suddenly heard someone wanted to buy the plaster you asked me to make yesterday, and he wanted to buy all of it. I knew it must be you who asked someone to buy it."

"So I asked the old man to give them a discount and came by to see what you were doing."

The dialect suddenly became clear.

At this time, Ding Jian pointed at Deng Nanxing and asked:

"Who is this……"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan introduced:
"His name is Deng Nanxing. He is from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in Kaiping, Guangdong. His grandfather is the current manager of Tong Ren Tang... In addition, Deng Tietao, a famous doctor in Guangdong, is his cousin."

Ding Jian saluted towards Deng Nanxing:
"Nice to meet you!"

Deng Nanxing saluted with his fists, which was a bit uncommon. Then he looked Ding Jian up and down and asked:
"You want to use the ointment, right?"

Ding Jian nodded:
"Yes, that's right, I want it."

Deng Nanxing said:
"This plaster that Brother Fang found from the secret recipe is very effective. Yesterday, an old man fell and injured himself. After one day, he came back for a follow-up visit today and said that his wound didn't hurt anymore."

Deng Nanxing always calls Fangyan by his name in the store, but now he actually calls Fangyan "Brother Fang" outside.

But Ding Jian didn't pay attention to this. When he heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.

Just now he was somewhat skeptical about the effectiveness of the medicine.

Because even dialects themselves are not sure whether they are 100% useful.

Now that I heard Deng Nanxing say this, it is certain that it will be useful.

Fang Yan was puzzled by the effect of the medicine and asked:
"You mean, Mr. Chen's leg will be healed after the follow-up visit today?"

Deng Nanxing nodded and said:
"Well, basically, there is no problem. Although it is not completely healed, he can stand up on his own. He also said that he no longer feels any unusual pain. My grandfather said that the effect of this plaster is very good."

Ding Jian, who was standing by, sighed:
"So this is the value of being included in the Yongle Encyclopedia..."

Then he said to the crowd:

"Come on, try putting it on me too."
