"Then let's just cut it into pieces, steam it, and make pumpkin soup?" Shi Jinyun asked.

"It is also effective. It has some effect on nourishing the body, but you can't drink it often. If you eat too much, you will easily get angry."

"It doesn't matter if it makes you angry or not, as long as you can eat it!

Isn’t this pumpkin more delicious than Wo Wo Tou?” Lao Liangtou said nonchalantly.

This is the truth!

In this age, people don’t have enough to eat, so who cares about that? No matter how hot it is, it’s countless times more delicious than bark, leaves, or grain substitutes.

It's more delicious than steamed buns and more nutritious.

In other words, being able to eat enough is the most important thing.

"Grind it into pumpkin powder and mix it with cornmeal to steam the steamed buns. It will be more delicious." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"You can have this! Xiao Ji, please pay more attention, leave part of the pumpkin for cooking, and grind the remaining pumpkin into pumpkin powder according to Xiao Zhang's advice." Lao Liangtou said directly.

Now, the supply of grain has been decreasing, not to mention cornmeal, this is fine grain.

The supply ratio of sweet potato noodles has been reduced, and the insufficient portion has been replaced with food replacement powder.

Grain substitute, as explained before, is a powder ground from wheat straw and soybean straw to replace grain.

The freshly steamed steamed buns have a pretty good taste, and they only start to make your throat sore after the second meal, while the grain replacement powder is just unpalatable.

Whether it's freshly steamed or the second meal, it tastes terrible.

However, this thing can really fill your stomach, and it does contain protein as experts said.

Now, Zhang Yan said that pumpkin can be ground into powder, so what are you waiting for?

Those food substitutes are all used to support the main factory. We can just eat pumpkin powder.

Then it's okay if you get angry.

"Tell Wen Youliang to save the pumpkin seeds. When you slice and grind them, you should also save the pumpkin seeds."

"What? Pumpkin seeds are also medicinal materials?" Shi Jinyun asked jokingly.

"Haha, Sister Shi really said it!

Pumpkin seeds are really medicinal!

Pumpkin seeds can repel tapeworms, roundworms, postpartum edema of hands and feet, whooping cough, and hemorrhoids.

In addition, it has a certain effect on diabetes.

For prostate patients, eating more pumpkin seeds can also have therapeutic effects.

Therefore, if you have children at home, there is no harm in giving them more pumpkin seeds.

Men, it’s also good to eat more pumpkin seeds!

Even if you are not sick, pumpkin seeds are still a delicious snack." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

“Good guy, it’s really a medicinal material!

Dean, what I admire most about you is that you can connect everything with medicinal materials and you can tell a story." Shi Jinyun said with emotion.

Then he said to Ji Kaiwen: "Dean Ji, you have to save the pumpkin seeds and get some snacks for my boy later!"

"Sister Shi, don't worry! Leave this matter to me, and I will ensure that everyone can eat pumpkin seeds!" Ji Kaiwen promised, patting his chest.

One lunch turned into a popular science knowledge lecture on Chinese medicinal materials.

After eating, Zhang Yan returned to the office and took a nice nap.

In the afternoon, I continued to the inpatient building at the back to give lectures to the apprentices and interns.

Today is a specialist lecture on pediatrics.

When Zhang Yan talked about it, he also picked it up at his fingertips, took out each pediatric case, gave everyone examples, and explained the treatment plan with eloquent references.

How the disease will develop and change, and how the treatment plan should change, can we achieve the best treatment effect.

The steel rolling mill moved very quickly. After talking in the morning, the special train was coordinated in the afternoon.

This is also a coincidence. The cities on the border are all undergoing large-scale construction. A large amount of materials are being transported to the border and western cities. There are special trains going to the west almost every day.

When he was about to get off work, Ji Kaiwen found Zhang Yan and reported that he would take a special train to Zhangjiakou tomorrow to exchange for beef and mutton.

Zhang Yan naturally agreed, and readily signed the delivery slip, allocating twenty-five tons of Chinese patent medicines.

Zhang Yan originally wanted to get some western medicine through Shi Jinsong, but Shi Jinsong didn't come to see him.

After Ji Kaiwen left, Zhang Yan took out the manuscript and continued to write the textbook "Traditional Chinese Medicine Surgery".

Just as I picked up the pen, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in!"

"Dean Zhang!"

"Hey! Manager Shi is here? You are a rare visitor!" Zhang Yan couldn't help laughing when he saw the visitor.

Zhang Yan almost couldn't help himself and wanted to ask Shi Jinsong if his hometown was in Shandong.

I just finished talking about him and this is it.

Zhang Yan politely moved Shi Jinsong to the sofa in the reception area and made him a cup of tea.

"Dean Zhang, have I offended you? If I have offended you, just say it and I will apologize to you!" Shi Jinsong asked directly after sitting down.

"Shi Jinsong, what are you talking about?" Zhang Yan asked pretending to be confused.

"I heard Director Zhang from the pharmaceutical factory say that you withheld all the 25 tons of Chinese patent medicines that were originally intended to be given to us." Shi Jinsong asked in a questioning tone, a little anxious.

"Oh! You said this! This is a misunderstanding!

I am definitely not withholding the medicine and not sending it to you!

I am temporarily transferring this batch of Chinese patent medicines for our longer-term cooperation." Zhang Yan said with a look of sudden realization.

"Withholding our goods is for long-term cooperation?" Shi Jinsong said with disbelief on his face.

"That's what happened. Manager Shi just happened to be here. If you didn't come, I would still be looking for you!

We and the steel rolling mill are planning to jointly exchange a batch of beef and mutton from the border."

"What does Dean Zhang mean by looking for me?"

"Forty-nine cities are now short of meat. To what extent, Manager Shi should understand!

This time, we are buying beef and mutton from the frontier, and we plan to take Manager Shi with us." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Really?" Shi Jinsong was a little moved.

"Of course it's true!

In this way, if you give me a ton of western medicine, I will give you ten tons of affordable beef and mutton!"

"One ton of Western medicine? Dean Zhang, look how heavy I am, why don't you use me as Western medicine and exchange it for beef and mutton!"

"Shi Jinsong, one ton of Western medicine sounds like a lot, but it's actually not a lot! Think about it, your pharmaceutical company handles thousands of tons of Western medicine a year. ωωw..net

Where does it take one ton?

If you get back ten tons of beef and mutton, what will the employees of your pharmaceutical company and your superiors think of you?" Zhang Yan tempted Shi Jinsong like a devil.

Although Zhang Yan usually doesn't want to make small talk, he is still very talkative when it comes to business matters.

"Dean Zhang, I can give you half a ton of Western medicine, but I want twenty tons of beef and mutton."

"One ton of Western medicine, give you twenty tons of beef and mutton! It's too much, I can't divide it here.

You have to know that we are cooperating with the steel rolling mill this time. There are 50,000 to 60,000 workers in the steel rolling mill. If there are any less, they will not recognize it!" Zhang Yan's face was full of confusion.

"Director Zhang, half a ton of Western medicine is already the biggest resource I can put out! This is also the resource of other hospitals that is being squeezed. I will give them part of the beef and mutton later." Shi Jinsong also refused to let go, calling him poor.
