Lead elixir plaster originated from ancient alchemy. The yellow elixir used in the plaster is a kind of elixir refined by Taoism. It is made from lead, sulfur, saltpeter and other minerals.
During the development of alchemy, ancient alchemists discovered that yellow elixir would change during the refining process, and some methods for external use of medicines were derived.
Huang Dan is pungent, slightly cold and poisonous.
Returns to the heart and enters the spleen and liver meridians.
Taken orally, it has the effects of reducing phlegm, calming convulsions, and attacking toxins and malaria.
Huangdan can be used externally to remove toxins, promote muscle growth, kill insects and relieve itching. It was a commonly used medicinal material in making plasters in ancient times.
When making plasters, different medicinal materials are added to treat different illnesses.
Legend has it that if you put the boiled red lead plaster into water, it will not rot for thousands of years.
Chen Wenzhe didn't know whether it was immortal for a thousand years. Even in the flashback scenes he saw, no one waited until a thousand years to see if it was really immortal for a thousand years.
However, Chen Wenzhe saw the method of making lead red plaster, and even the detailed instructions.
The recipe passed down from Taoism for making lead red plaster, that is, the production method, is very simple.
There are many traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, songs, and formulas, and these formulas are often simple and easy to remember.
For example, the formula for this lead elixir plaster is: one elixir and two oils, the ointment is thick, three times up and three times down, boil it withered to remove the slag, drop water to form beads, remove the elixir from the fire, the elixir is ripe, go to the ground with cold water, its shape is black like paint,
It becomes soft when hot, hard when cool, sticks when you stick it, and rises when you pull it out.
In just a few sentences, the preparation, use and use of the plaster are described in great detail.
When the lead plaster is refined at high temperature, the yellow lead will slowly turn from red to black, so the lead plaster is often called black plaster, and because it is lined with dog skin, it is called dog skin plaster when barked.
The ability to be stored for a long time is the most famous feature of lead red plaster.
In the hands of traditional Chinese medicine collectors from all over the world, lead plasters lined with dog skin during the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China have been preserved as treasures.
Of course, this is not without reason. One is that the medicine used at that time was genuine and effective.
Another thing is that the traditional Chinese medicine at that time was very powerful. They were the essence of medicine that had been passed down for thousands of years.
But in modern times, the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine has been severely damaged.
Let’s not talk about other things, let’s just talk about making plasters. There are many techniques in it. Once you know it, you will think it is very simple, but there are many people who don’t know how, don’t know, or simply don’t believe it.
For example, the oil used to boil the plaster is sesame sesame oil. The sesame oil is resistant to high temperatures and will not produce too much foam when boiling the medicine. Compared with other vegetable oils, the color and effect of the boiled plaster are better.
It can be said that the more he learned about it, the more interested Chen Wenzhe became in this kind of dog skin plaster.
It's just that he kept getting inheritances while walking around. Others didn't have such good things. Therefore, after walking for a while, the owner here couldn't help it anymore.
"How's it going? My traditional Chinese medicine factory, isn't it pretty good?"
Just when Chen Wenzhe looked enlightened, the middle-aged prodigal son already had a proud look on his face.
It was this small drugstore in his family that looked inconspicuous, but it allowed him to have no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, and he was even pampered.
It's a pity that the old man finally got angry and cut off his source of income.
If he hadn't been so reckless, I'm afraid this shop would have fallen into the hands of his sisters.
The middle-aged man looked at the shop. He had played here when he was a child. At that time, the place was crowded and lively.
Now that I think about it, that time should be the best time for my family’s business.
After that, his family fell silent for a few years, but when his shop started to prosper again, it would really make money every day.
However, he actually doesn't know why his family can make a fortune every day?
Of course, he knew that the dog skin plasters at home were very famous, and he would also make dog skin plasters to treat bruises. Unfortunately, the ones he made were not very effective at all.
Logically speaking, his old man couldn't hide anything from him, but the dog-skin plaster he made just didn't work.
And he couldn't give the secret recipe to others and let others cook it.
According to their family rules, he couldn't even discuss it with others!
The middle-aged man was so angry that if he really needed money, he would even sell the prescription.
Naturally, Chen Wenzhe didn't know what the middle-aged man was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely tell him that Chinese medicine, especially Chinese patent medicine, cannot be made with just a prescription. It also requires extremely exquisite production technology.
Therefore, sometimes the confidentiality of Chinese patent medicines is not the formula but the production process, such as Angong Niuhuang Pills.
This middle-aged man has never made dog skin plaster even once since he was a child. Does he really think that he can use it after brewing it according to the recipe?
From this we can also see that there is absolutely nothing wrong with a son not teaching his father.
"This drug store is really good, and the location is good. There are many residential areas around it. Even if it is just selling some Western medicine, it should make a lot of money." Chen Wenzhe said honestly.
"Of course, it's just that I have other businesses. The place here is too small and I can't make it big or strong, so I don't have time to manage it. Do you want it, little brother? If so, I can transfer it to you at a low price.
.”
At this moment, Mo Chengfang said: "Xiao Chen is not a doctor, he just wants to buy some Chinese medicine."
Chen Wenzhe also smiled and said: "That's true, that is, your medicinal materials are good, so I will buy more. I am not a doctor, so why do I need such a pharmacy?"
"Haha, I grew up in a drug store. The medicinal materials you bought are used to make Angong Niuhuang Pills, right? People like you will definitely not be able to make ordinary Angong Niuhuang Pills. That is to follow ancient recipes.
Has the law been produced?”
Looking at the proud middle-aged man, Chen Wenzhe was a little surprised. This guy was quite capable and not a complete loser.
"You are right, but there is no need for us to buy the pharmacy as well!" Mo Chengfang said with a smile.
"You don't know this, right? It's illegal to make pills privately. Not only can't you buy or sell them, you can't give them away. If you can't take them, forget it. As long as someone takes them and reports you once, you'll know you're in trouble.
Pharmaceutical production is not that simple."
Chen Wenzhe was stunned for a moment. This person must be right. He really thought it was simple.
Could it be that if he makes pills, only his family can take them?
It's definitely impossible. For example, Mo Chengfang wants it.
So Mo Chengfang doesn’t have many good friends? Where are his relatives? Where is his family?
If he is fine with taking it, will he also use this pill as a favor?
After all, this is medicine, and it needs to be taken according to the guidance of professionals.
However, when medicines leak out, can Chen Wenzhe control the unexpected situation?
It's impossible for him to follow and tell people to take it under the guidance of professional doctors at any time, right?
Therefore, having a formal manufacturing license is really essential.
However, he had never thought of this before, because he knew that it was difficult to apply for a pharmaceutical license, and even some big companies could not apply for it.
But looking at the appearance of the middle-aged man now, it doesn’t seem impossible?
