Chapter 96: Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

  "Nowadays, most of the ginseng seen on the market is artificially cultivated. In our doctors' eyes, this kind of ginseng is also called 'fake ginseng'. The medicinal power of this ginseng doesn't even amount to one percent of that of real wild mountain ginseng. If you take this medicine with it......" Old Yue saw that Xiao Yu and the others didn't seem to care at all, so he patiently explained.

  "Old master, our ginseng is also wild mountain ginseng!" In response to Yue Lao's impatient explanation, Xiao Yu's heart was filled with gratitude.

  As the old man said, there are really few wild ginseng on the market now. In the past few years, a large number of ginseng diggers flooded into Changbai Mountain, making the wild ginseng in Changbai Mountain almost extinct. Now, it can only be seen in some deep mountains and old forests.

  "Hey young man, can I take a look at your ginseng? After all, if it's not good, it could be a matter of life and death!" Yue Lao said to Xiao Yu, seeing that they also claimed their ginseng was wild mountain ginseng, but he didn't believe it.

  In his opinion, Xiao Ye and others are so young that they can distinguish between cultivated ginseng and wild mountain ginseng. Nowadays, if you go to any pharmacy to buy ginseng, they all say it's wild mountain ginseng, but is it possible? If all the pharmacies on the market are selling wild mountain ginseng, then Changbai Mountain would be full of cultivated ginseng, which is unlikely.

  "Sorry, sir, our ginseng is not on us, can you help us get the medicine first? We'll bring it back for your inspection before we brew it." Xiao Yu's ginseng was in the car and he didn't have it on him. He knew his own ginseng, but this old man was doing everything for their good, so Xiao Yu couldn't say it directly, hence he said that.

  This old man, like Xiao Yu, did not use a scale to grab medicine, but instead grabbed a handful of each kind.

  "When he saw that Mr. Yue didn't care about the amount of medicine and just grabbed some, Wei Jun also knew that traditional Chinese medicine couldn't be taken casually. If you took too much or the combination was unreasonable, it could be fatal. So when he saw Mr. Yue grab a handful without even weighing it, he wanted to speak up, but just as he was about to say something, Xiao Ye stopped him. Xiao Ye saw how the old man grabbed the medicine and knew that he had taken exactly the same amount as himself, not one bit more or less."

  The guy from Renhe Hall and several medicine-picking colleagues stopped their work, gazing at Old Yue with admiration. Every time Old Yue picked medicine, these colleagues would put down their work. At first, the leader of Renhe Hall had said something about it once or twice, but later on, seeing how enthusiastic these colleagues became after watching Old Yue pick medicine, he turned a blind eye to it.

  Every time Old Yue grabs medicine, he tells his apprentices stories about when he used to be an apprentice himself. This greatly inspires the enthusiasm of the apprentices at work and they look forward to becoming a famous doctor like Old Yue one day.

  Yue Lao finished grabbing the medicine, and the apprentice hurried forward to wrap it up with yellow grass paper and twine. Renhe Tang has been using this traditional method of wrapping Chinese medicine until now, unlike some ordinary pharmacies that use plastic bags to hold the medicinal materials.

  Yue Lao handed the tied medicine to Xiao Yu and then turned his head to say to Wei Jun: "Young man, don't think I'm nagging or speaking unpleasantly. Although young people are strong and healthy, they also need to be mindful of moderation, otherwise..."

  "I..."

  The old man's words made Wei Jun's face flush with anger, he opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out, knowing that speaking up in front of so many people would only make him lose more face.

  "Hey, what's wrong with you? Hey..."

  Xiao Yu and Wei Jun were about to leave with their medicine when they suddenly heard a commotion coming from the Western medicine section. The people who had been buying medicine in the Chinese medicine section all rushed towards the Western medicine section, and Xiao Yu and Wei Jun exchanged a glance before following the crowd.

  Yue Lao also walked out from behind the counter and followed them. When Xiao Yu and his friends approached, a salesperson who was selling medicine nearby was crying while speaking.

  He came to the pharmacy to buy a hangover remedy, but before he could finish speaking, he fell backwards and collapsed, vomiting foul-smelling substances and losing consciousness.

  "Has an ambulance been called?" a leader-like person asked the salesperson.

  The salesperson was probably scared and just nodded vigorously while crying somewhere.

  Xiao Yu walked up to the front, where there were three layers of people inside and three layers outside, all packed tightly together. Xiao Yu squeezed forward a bit but couldn't get through, so he said: "Everyone make way, I'm a doctor!"

  Xiao Ye had actually forgotten that although Ren He Tang looked like an ordinary pharmacy, there were also a few doctors who saw patients here.

  The leader over there, after inquiring about the situation and realizing that the responsibility didn't lie with the salesperson but rather his own sudden collapse, let out a sigh of relief and said to the crowd inside and outside: "Everyone please make way and pay attention to ventilation!"

  After hearing the attention to ventilation, the crowd surrounding slowly dispersed, but they didn't go far and stopped nearby to watch. Several Western doctors from Renhe Hall wanted to go over and take a look, but were blocked by that leader who shook his head at them.

  In the mind of this leader, since the person's illness has nothing to do with Renhe Tang, there is no need to take care of him. Anyway, an ambulance has already been called. If they take care of him and he survives, that's fine. But if he dies? They will just deny any responsibility, even if it's later proven otherwise. It's better to leave things as they are, with his life or death having nothing to do with them.

  Seeing the crowd dispersing, Xiao Yu hurriedly walked over, and Yue Lao also followed closely behind. The leader-like person wanted to stop them, but when he saw that it was Yue Lao following behind, he opened his mouth but didn't say anything. He was very clear about Yue Lao's character, and if he stopped him now, he would probably be out of a job soon.

  What he did was not wrong for the entire Renhe Hall, if these old experts were not present, the company might even reward him. However, with these old experts around, he went against the hundred-year-old store rules of Renhe Hall. If because of this matter these old experts want to leave Renhe Hall, it's likely that the company will sacrifice him to appease these old experts. Between him and these old experts, the company will definitely choose the old experts.

  Xiao Yu walked over, one hand reached out to take the wrist and began to feel the pulse. Yue Lao was behind Xiao Yu, when he came over, he saw Xiao Yu feeling the pulse, looked at Xiao Yu in surprise, this young man is a doctor? And also a Chinese medicine doctor? What can such a young Chinese medicine doctor do? He thought that when he was as old as Xiao Yu, he was still picking herbs in the pharmacy.

  But a life is at stake, and saving someone is like fighting a fire. He didn't have time to talk to Xiao Ye, so he walked over to the other side, grabbed the person's other hand, and started taking their pulse.

  That leader-like person saw that Yue Lao had begun to take the pulse, and knew that they could no longer hide, so he gave a few orders to those Western doctors.

  Several Western doctors standing at a distance heard the leader's instructions and hurried to run to their consultation desk to fetch equipment. Before long, several Western doctors brought over some commonly used Western medical devices such as blood pressure meters and stethoscopes and walked towards the patient.

  A doctor in his thirties took out a blood pressure meter and squatted beside the patient, ready to take the patient's blood pressure. Another doctor took out an electrocardiogram device to measure the electrocardiogram.

  At this time, a doctor ran over with a small box in his hand and opened the box to take out a portable brain wave meter.

  This brain wave meter was purchased by Dr. Renhe Tang with special funds, and it has always been his exclusive equipment. This doctor is a returned master's degree holder from the United States, and Renhe Tang recruited him with high salary to introduce talents and improve its reputation in the deep sea.

  This doctor who studied neurosurgery in school came to Renhe Hall and found that there was no equipment, which made this doctor who relied on equipment very uncomfortable, so he applied for this instrument.

  Xiao Yu and Yue Lao were squatting in a place closer to the patient's head, so it was very inconvenient for the returned Ph.D. to operate the instrument. He then said to Xiao Yu: "Hey, get out of the way! Do you know how to diagnose? Don't delay my treatment of the patient!"

  As for Yue Lao, he wouldn't dare say such things. Although he is a returnee who thinks highly of himself, he also knows how much Tongrentang values these traditional Chinese medicine experts, which is not something he can compare to. Although he never believes in traditional Chinese medicine and only trusts the instruments in his hands, in his opinion, what's the point of traditional Chinese doctors feeling your pulse to diagnose diseases? Even if you're very skilled at it, can you be more accurate than instruments?

  So he looks down on traditional Chinese medicine in his heart, looks down on Guizhi, but these old experts also dare not offend him. However, Xiao Ye is different, Xiao Ye is so young and still learning traditional Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis, what can you come up with?

  Xiao Yu stood up, he had already diagnosed the disease. Xiao Yu just stood up, and Old Yue also followed suit. Old Yue had naturally heard the young doctor's words, but didn't say anything. After all, Xiao Yu was too young, even if he knew some traditional Chinese medicine, how strong could he be?

  So in Old Yue's opinion, Xiao Yu was just making a fuss for no reason. It would be better to let the doctors use their instruments to take some readings. Old Yue had lived for over 70 years and had seen all sorts of people and encountered all sorts of things, so he didn't oppose the use of Western medical equipment for diagnosis. This was to prevent the patient's family from making a scene.

  Either the patient died in vain, or the patient's family sued him and said that their family member was not seriously ill, but he was killed by him. He couldn't refute it either. Should he tell the judge about yin and yang, five elements, and meridian theory? It is necessary to know that once in court, only solid evidence matters, without evidence, everything is off the table.

  Mr. Yue quietly instructed his assistant a few words while several Western doctors were diagnosing with equipment. After hearing Mr. Yue's instructions, the assistant responded and ran towards the traditional Chinese medicine area.

  Xiao Yu saw Wei Jun's weak body and didn't say a word, then took the car key from him and quickly ran to the outside of Renhe Tang pharmacy, his medical box was still in the car.

  The patient has acute cerebral hemorrhage, and must be treated promptly. If not, it will be too late when the rescue team arrives, even if he is sent to hospital and his life is saved, he will likely spend the rest of his life in bed.
