Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 148 The value of the infirmary can save lives!
"Don't say that! If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't ask you for help. Come on, drink!"

Guo Yongqing is a righteous man, which may be related to his background.

The two then had two more drinks and ended their lunch.

Fang Wei and his wife also said goodbye and rode their bikes back home.

Guo Yongqing was a man of action. He packed up in the afternoon and delivered a small box to Fang Wei's residence that night.

"Here are two paintings, a bag of silver dollars, and three small yellow croakers. I'll also leave you 1000 yuan. Please help me get some food when I need it."

Guo Yongqing had set his sights on Fang Wei, so there wasn't much trouble.

I put my things down, gave some instructions and left, feeling relieved.

Fang Wei then called Fang Ping over and told him about the matter. The two brothers were both deeply involved with Uncle Guo, so of course they had to keep each other informed.

"Third brother, is the situation really that serious?"

"It's hard to say. Uncle Guo is preparing for a rainy day, so that he won't be too late when the time comes."

"Well, you can keep it for him. No one in our Fang family would embezzle such a small amount of his stuff."

at night.

Fang Wei hid the small box and put it together with Grandpa Guan’s things.

He dared to say that if someone really came to look for these things, no one would be able to find them unless the house was demolished.

Next is summer planting, and all members of Team 2 are mobilized.

While other production teams were still harvesting rice, rice seedlings had already been planted in the fields of Team 2.

This season, the team planted 300 mu of [Nan Guang No. 150] and 10 mu of [Nan Guang No. ]. The remaining mu of experimental fields will be used for a new round of rice hybridization experiments.

After finishing the summer planting work, Fang Wei personally led the team to the public office to collect the public grain.

This year's grain procurement task has been completed in the previous process of exchanging rice seeds, and the remaining public grain task is 69000 kilograms.

There are still 72.6 kilograms of rice left in the team. Fang Wei has agreed with the person in charge of the grain purchasing station, and the other party will come to purchase it.

Subsequently, the team sold another 42.6 jin of negotiated grain, at a price of 0.10 yuan per jin, for a total cash income of 42600 yuan.

The team still has 30 kilograms left in stock.

As expected, the second team became an "advanced collective in paying grain", and the rewarded feed alone was enough to feed 100 pigs.

Fang Wei became increasingly cautious about food issues.

Later, the team began distributing rations, allocating an average of 500 kilograms of rice per person, reducing the stock by another 15 kilograms, leaving a remaining stock of 15 kilograms.

Fang Wei asked Zheng Hu and others to buy cement, red bricks and other building materials to repair the roads and dilapidated houses in the village.

In addition, a batch of new agricultural tools were purchased and a batch of consumables and medicines were added to the medical room.

"Third brother, you've been spending money like water recently."

Seeing that Fang Wei seemed like a different person and was spending money lavishly, Zheng Hu took the opportunity to remind him.

"That's about it. There shouldn't be too many expenses from now on. Huzi, let me tell you, having too much rice in the barn is not a good thing, and having too much cash is not a good thing either."

Fang Wei was not angry at Zheng Hu's reminder.

He patiently explained to the other party. Zheng Hu seemed to be thinking about something and felt that his third brother had considered everything very carefully.

Why do the members work so hard all year round? Isn't it to live a better life?

Now that the conditions are right, we should improve everyone's living and production environment, and his vision suddenly broadened.

"Third brother, I don't have anything else to do, you go ahead and do your work. I'll take the newspaper, because I still have to organize everyone to study in the evening."

Zheng Hu then left the team headquarters and took away the pile of newspapers on Fang Wei's desk.

The team often organizes study activities after dinner, and one of the most important activities is reading newspapers in the threshing ground.

Let members know more about the country's policies and guidelines, as well as major domestic and international events.

This activity is not compulsory and participation is entirely voluntary. It is an activity that members love very much.

In addition, the breeding team's business learning has never stopped.

Fang Ping is now in charge of business learning. Fang Wei sometimes participates and gives lectures. Zheng Hu and others also often come to the scene to exchange some production experience and knowledge with everyone.

It can be said that the second team has maintained a good learning atmosphere over the years, which is not common in other production teams.

Fang Wei waved his hand and asked Zheng Hu to take all the newspapers away.

Then he continued to look down at the documents. This was a privilege he had not enjoyed before. Even Xu Guangsheng from the commune could not see some of the documents.

noon.

When Fang Wei returned home, Pan Lianhua had already prepared lunch.

"I've already told you that we should all go to Big Brother's house to eat together, but you insisted on cooking for yourself. You better not get tired, do you hear me?"

Fang Wei felt sorry for Pan Lianhua and tried to talk to her several times to ask her to do less work, but she just wouldn't listen.

When the old matter was brought up again today, Pan Lianhua still didn't take it seriously.

"How can rural women be so delicate? People say that pregnant women need to move more. As long as they don't do heavy work, it's fine."

Fang Wei shook his head helplessly, still unable to convince the other party.

However, he took advantage of his recent free time to take Pan Lianhua back to the Yao village. Grandpa felt sorry for his granddaughter, so he kept her and asked her to stay for a few more days before leaving.

"Third brother, you did this on purpose. Why, now that I'm pregnant, you're already disliking me. You're only happy if I kick you out, right?"

Pan Lianhua didn't want to separate from Fang Wei, and she pinched him out of anger.

Fang Wei laughed heartily and repeatedly promised to take her back in a few days before he left the Yao village.

When he returned to the village, he saw a group of people rushing towards the infirmary in a noisy manner. He quickly asked what was going on.

"Captain, Zheng Boliang cut his hand while working and bled profusely. It was terrifying."

It turned out that a member of the cooperative accidentally cut himself while working.

Fang Wei quickly ran towards the infirmary and saw Wang Guizhi frantically preparing to deal with the situation.

"How can the doctor treat patients with all this noise? Everyone who is not involved should leave. Yuan En, you stay and help. Dismiss, disperse!"

Fang Wei immediately cleared the infirmary, took Deng Yuanen to wash his hands, and then stood aside waiting for Wang Guizhi's instructions.

Wang Guizhi was not afraid of blood, but the other party's wound was very long and deep, which made her a little scared.

She was worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it well. Human lives were at stake, and she felt a lot of pressure.

"Doctor Wang, calm down and handle it according to what you have learned."

Fang Wei encouraged her and showed his readiness to help at any time, and Wang Guizhi immediately calmed down.

She used to be a midwife and was not good at dealing with trauma, but through learning, she still knew the basic procedures.

She quickly cleaned the wound, stopped the bleeding, and then sewed it. A wound this long wouldn't work without stitches; the bleeding wouldn't stop, and even the strongest man wouldn't be able to handle it. At first, Wang Guizhi's suturing technique was clumsy, but she quickly got into the groove and became more and more adept.

Fang Wei nodded silently. It seemed that the other party had learned a lot of skills from his further studies.

Rural doctors mainly deal with common diseases, injuries, common infectious diseases, etc. Sutures and injections are basic skills, and it seems that they have mastered them well.

After the suturing was completed, Wang Guizhi applied medicine to the injured person, then took out some pills from the cabinet and put them into a small paper bag.

"This is an anti-inflammatory drug. Take two tablets three times a day, half an hour after a meal. This is a painkiller. If the pain is severe, take one tablet. No more than three tablets a day."

"I've got it. Thank you, Doctor Wang. I don't have any money on me, so I'll ask my wife to bring it to me later."

The injured person expressed his gratitude to Wang Guizhi, then said hello to Fang Wei and Deng Yuanen, and left with the medicine.

A few pills are very cheap, and the treatment fee is even cheaper, only 20% of the total price of the medicine.

The clinic does not make any profit from the medicines it buys and the treatment fees are just a symbolic amount, with no profit being the purpose.

The [Farm Cooperative Medical Care] envisioned by Fang Wei has not yet taken shape. Once it is formed, the burden of medical treatment for members will be further reduced.

"Doctor Wang, take a break. You must have handled it right today. Next time you encounter this situation, don't panic. Your technique is fine."

After Wang Guizhi finished cleaning up and washed her hands, Fang Wei sat down and chatted with her.

Seeing that there was nothing left for him to do, Deng Yuanen left first. He still had to go to the commune to fetch ammonia in the afternoon.

"It's mainly because I've never treated such a serious wound before. I'll observe more closely during the subsequent dressing changes and advise the patient to go to the hospital if I find any problems."

Rural doctors cannot cure all diseases. They will treat the diseases they can handle themselves, and will recommend patients to go to the commune health center or county hospital for treatment if they cannot.

Wang Guizhi is now relaxed. One doesn't know how difficult something is until one experiences it. After going through it once, she feels more confident.

Fang Wei stayed for a while and then got up and left. He was very impressed with Wang Guizhi's ability and attitude.

Whether it is a rural health center or a barefoot doctor, if there is no heart to serve the majority of members, the work will definitely not be done well.

"Third brother, this infirmary you set up is really great. It can save lives at critical moments. Take today's incident as an example. If there was no infirmary, by the time Zheng Boliang arrived at the commune, all the blood would have been drained."

During the meal, Fang Ping generously praised the value of the infirmary.

The value of the infirmary is that minor illnesses can be treated without leaving the clinic, there is someone to treat emergencies, and there is someone to give advice on difficult and complicated diseases.

This is very good. According to the current level of economic development, this system is undoubtedly advanced.

"That's right. Next we have to reduce the burden on members for medical treatment. It's a long and arduous task."

Fang Wei always felt that he was insignificant. Even as a time traveler, he could not change the tide of the times.

The only thing we can do is to start small and do our part quietly.

Time flies.

Fang Wei took the time to go to the Yao village and bring Pan Lianhua back.

I had lunch that day.

Fang Wei accompanied Pan Lianhua for a walk in the forestry area, but the two did not go to the chestnut forest on higher ground. They just stood at the edge of the forestry area and looked around.

Today, the chestnut forest has become a beautiful landscape for the second team.

There are more than 5.5 chestnut trees, with an average height of over 7 meters, and some even exceeding meters.

"Third brother, it's incredible to hear that some chestnut trees are actually bearing fruit this year. Everyone says that by next year at the latest, chestnut flowers will bloom all over the mountains, and we'll be able to harvest more chestnuts in the fall."

Pan Lianhua looked at the lush scenery in front of him and his mood suddenly improved.

She turned her head to look at Fang Wei, pointed to the chestnut forest in the distance, and said proudly.

Fang Wei nodded. With the blessing of the attributes of the [Forestry and Picking Area], the trees in the area will grow faster and faster. By next year, the chestnut trees will definitely bloom and bear fruit.

The chestnut trees planted by the team were originally wild varieties, but after seedling cultivation and transplantation, the varieties have undergone some changes.

Simply put, it has high yield, good quality, fast tree growth rate, and strong resistance (to drought, disease and pests, etc.).

Economic forest is the next growth point for the second team. After several years of continuous cultivation, the benefits will be seen in more than a year.

"Sister, go back and have a rest. Come back when you have time."

The two stayed in the forestry area for a while, and then Fang Wei took Pan Lianhua back home.

Pan Lianhua needed to take a nap at noon, but Fang Wei was not sleepy at the moment, so he went to the team's oil tea forest alone.

Before we knew it, the oil tea forest had expanded to nearly double its size.

Especially this year after the merger of the two teams, the oil tea forest has expanded all the way to the back mountain of Zhaojia Village and has now begun to take shape.

The replacement of old tea oil trees is also in progress. A small half of them have been replaced so far, and about half will be replaced by the end of the year.

In the past few days, Zheng Hu personally led most of the members to plant trees on the mountain, and the appearance of the mountain is changing day by day.

As for loquat trees, they are just embellishments. There are no complete forests, but you can always see some in the woods.

Now many tall loquat trees have been transplanted into the village, adding a lot of beauty to the mountain village.

Standing on the hill, feeling the breeze, Fang Wei couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart.

He single-handedly solved the problem of "having enough to eat" for the Xiatang Brigade, and at the same time, enabled the members of the second team to have more animal and plant protein.

Planting soybeans, raising pigs, raising ducks, growing rapeseed, and cultivating oil tea forests allow everyone to move from having enough to eat to eating well.

Everyone's cash income has more than doubled, and the amount of rice they own has tripled.

At least in this era, he is definitely an excellent production team leader.

"Captain, someone sent you a meeting notice. Go to the team headquarters and take a look."

At this time, Fang Wenshu ran over in a hurry.

The communicator just delivered an urgent notice, and several team members went to look for Fang Wei separately. Finally, he found him in the chestnut forest.

"Another meeting? Let's go back and take a look."

Fang Wei frowned, then went to the team headquarters with Fang Wenshu.

The meeting notice was simple and clear, requiring him to go to the provincial capital for a meeting three days later. He was not allowed to ask for leave, and was not allowed to be absent without reason.

During dinner in the evening, he told his elder brother, sister-in-law and Pan Lianhua about this.

"Little brother, go and do your own thing. I'll take care of Sister Lotus. I'll definitely take good care of her for you."

Tian Guihua saw a mist in Pan Lianhua's eyes, so she smiled and changed the subject.

Women understand women best. Pregnant women will become sentimental during pregnancy, but they will be fine if you coax them.

Before going to bed at night, Fang Wei comforted Pan Lianhua again and asked her if she wanted to go back to the village.

"If I don't go, I'll stay home. Third brother, don't worry about the family affairs. With my sister-in-law's help, I'll be fine."

Although he was reluctant, Pan Lianhua still showed understanding.
