Guo Dong agreed readily, but there is an old saying that goes like this: You will gain wisdom if you take a cut.
For example, now, when she and Qiao Qiao were about to go up the mountain in the scorching sun, she suddenly asked cautiously: "How do you sell honey?"
Qiaoqiao raised her finger happily: "One thousand yuan a bottle."
"One bottle is..." Guo Dong couldn't help but look at the one on the shelf in the middle of the living room, ah no, half a bottle of honey.
Qiaoqiao's eyes followed: "Sister doctor, have you discovered it? It's like that, a bottle of 500 grams."
Guo Dong's eyes darkened.
"Thanks."
She sat down calmly: "I don't think I deserve it."
For ordinary people, the focus of sales at this moment must be on getting what you pay for, but Qiao Qiao was different. He just sat down curiously and asked, "Why doesn't it deserve it?"
"Because I have no money."
Guo Dong said vicissitudes of life.
"1,000 yuan only costs a small bottle of honey - do you know what I need to buy honey for?"
"What?"
As a suitable compliment, Qiao Qiao will never let her guests talk to themselves in loneliness.
At this moment, his thirsty eyes relieved Guo Dong's anxiety to some extent.
She then let out a long sigh and patiently explained to Qiao Qiao:
"I bought this honey to make honey pills. Before making pills, I have to refine the honey first. I don't use the old honey here very much, I just need to make the medium honey - but a bottle of medium honey also costs a lot.
Loss 1/10.”
"In other words, out of 500 grams of honey, I only got 450 grams of medium honey."
"But the ratio of honey to medicinal materials is generally 1.5:1. So, a total of 1,000 yuan of honey only contains 300 grams of medicinal powder."
"How much will the price of my medicinal materials increase to?"
"The patient who buys medicine is not a fool. I am a serious Chinese medicine practitioner. I have to write down the prescriptions clearly. Isn't it okay for them to prescribe medicine wherever they want?"
Nowadays, they can do the frying, prepare granules, and also make pills and make ointments...
"so……"
Guo Dong could only shake his head heavily at this moment: "I really can't afford it."
Qiaoqiao received a lot of new news and was sitting there thoughtfully.
After a while, he suddenly asked: "Doctor sister, don't you have any rich patients?"
Guo Dong was stunned.
But I saw Qiao Qiao counting with her fingers: "Just like the aunties in our wet market, they are only willing to buy wild vegetables but not tea. My sister said that the consumption concept is different."
"But some customers buy tea as if it's free, and it's so refreshing! Vegetables cost 20 yuan per catty, and tea costs 10,000 yuan per catty. Your medicine can't cost 20 yuan a piece, and 10,000 yuan a piece."
?"
Guo Dong was so happy that he "puffed".
She thought to herself, if I sell a pill for 10,000 yuan, what will I have to sell? What is the big return pill?
But then I thought about it, Qiao Qiao was right!
There are always some high-end customers who do not care about or trust cheap medicinal materials.
In this way, there seems to be nothing wrong with mixing the expensive golden cherry blossoms with expensive honey into a pill, and setting the price a little more expensive...
"yes."
Qiaoqiao nodded and said in a serious way: "Just like Ultraman can deal with small monsters, he only needs biubiubiu. To deal with particularly big monsters, he needs the power of light!"
Guo Dong:……
Although, your metaphor seems very strange, but surprisingly it is quite appropriate.
She was a little ready to make a move: Then... why don't you go and take a look?
Just when this thought came to mind, Qiaoqiao suddenly said "Oh" again: "I forgot! Doctor sister, our honey is out of stock."
"Do you want to just see them working?"
Guo Dong:……
Do you think this is outrageous?
I see them working. Can they give me a bottle of honey?
Moreover, your honey is so expensive and sells so quickly, so it’s not just hunger marketing, right?
"But the effect is really good! Anyone who has bought it will buy it again."
Qiaoqiao smiled sweetly at her:
"Sister doctor, do you want to stay in our village? I heard my sister, the party secretary, tell my mother that if you become a doctor in the village, I can secretly give you a spoonful. If I get sick in the future, you must not
Give me a needle."
Guo Dong: ...This sentence contained so much information that she couldn't figure out what the key point was.
I had no choice but to answer one by one: "I haven't agreed to stay in the village yet. Why did you take a spoonful secretly? If you are sick, we don't need to give you acupuncture, but do you want to try the legendary acupuncture?"
Qiao Qiao was stunned: What is acupuncture?
It seems he hasn't seen it yet.
As for not staying in the village...
He could only shake his head regretfully: "Our honey has to be sold for money. If you don't become a doctor in the village and don't treat me, I won't be able to give you a spoonful. It's so expensive."
He looked distressed, instantly rendering Guo Dong speechless.
At this moment, she couldn't help but get entangled: Although this village is ordinary, the food is really delicious.
And indeed, when renting a house in the urban area, there are not many short-term rentals in this small town. At the very least, you have to deposit 1 to pay 6, and it is even difficult to find a house with a deposit of 1 to pay 6... You have to prepare a budget of 10,000 yuan anyway, right?
In addition to the medicinal materials that I poured out, I also repurchased some of my belongings, including clothes, shoes and socks, including notebooks...
After all, life is so stressful!
But at this moment, Qiao Qiao asked curiously: "Why do you need to use honey to make pills? Can't you boil sugar?"
"Seventh cousin said that the candy I boiled is also very sticky and very sweet."
"Of course not!"
Guo Dong said seriously: "You see, people don't add sugar when drinking traditional Chinese medicine. It's because sugar has medicinal properties and can easily conflict with other medicinal materials, or be detrimental to the body's health and affect the efficacy of the medicine."
As for why honey is used - because honey has many benefits.
"First of all, it is very mild in nature and will not conflict with anything."
"Secondly, it can also act as a natural preservative to preserve the efficacy of the medicine."
"The third reason is that honey has the effect of alleviating irritation. Some medicinal materials have strong medicinal properties and are relatively irritating to the gastrointestinal tract. It can play a role in alleviating the medicinal properties."
"And the most important point is that if you rub the pills with honey, they will not be completely decomposed after entering the intestines and stomach. Just like the current sustained-release medicines, they will be released continuously, which is more beneficial to the efficacy of the medicine and the body."
Qiao Qiao didn't quite understand, but that didn't stop him from opening his mouth in surprise——
"Is our honey so magical?"
Guo Dong disagreed: "All the honey in the world is so magical."
"impossible!"
Qiao Qiao said confidently: "Our honey must be the best. If you don't believe it, I will show it to you!"
He turned around, took down the half jar of honey from the shelf, unscrewed the lid, picked up a spoonful with a spoon and showed it to Guo Dong.
