Teacher Mo returned: "One box is one box. This thing is directly ordered by our school. It is not expensive. Because it is a consumable, it is a hundred bags per box. How many needles do you have in one pair?"
Man Bao: "Ninety, I have prepared ten needles of each type, but there are also different needles. For example, Dr. Ji's needle pack has one hundred and twenty needles. Each doctor will prepare needles according to his own preferences.
Teacher Mo, aren’t you like this?”
Teacher Mo: "No, we all open one bag and use one bag. Each bag contains one hundred needles. We throw them away after use."
Man Bao was shocked, "Use one bag and throw another bag?"
Teacher Mo: "Not bad!"
Man Bao remembered that she wanted to buy a pair of needles, but her father struggled for a long time before letting her mother pay for her. After knowing that she had money to buy, he just took the money back, but knowing that she spent
Even after spending so much money, I still feel extremely distressed.
Of all the possessions she had as a medical student, this pair of needles seemed to be the most expensive. Her medical books were quite valuable, but they were printed out at the encyclopedia. They cost no money, but points.
And her set of needles is mainly made of silver. There are ninety pieces in total. They are very delicate. They are considered a good set of needles, so they are very expensive.
Manbao has been using it for acupuncture for so many years. If it hadn't been used too frequently in the past two days, she wouldn't have thought of changing it.
Even now, she doesn't really want to change it. She thinks that after this period of time, she will get it repaired and maintained, and it will be a good pair again.
Man Bao was very curious, "What are your needles made of and why are they so cheap?"
"Silver," Teacher Mo said: "After research, we found that the ancients highly praised the use of silver needles. We have tested and found that the electrical and thermal conductivity of gold and silver are indeed optimal. However, the ancients' craftsmanship at that time was not very good, and gold needles
Silver needles are thick and not flexible enough, so stainless steel needles are more commonly used.”
Man Bao murmured, "Stainless steel needle?"
Teacher Mo continued: "But your era is a bit more ancient. By the way, do you have stainless steel there?"
Manbao:……
She replied: "I use silver needles!"
"Oh, that's no more, but it doesn't matter. Now stainless steel needles have been eliminated. Now we use needles with silver as the main material. They are flexible and the needle body is thin enough. I have tested it on myself.
Although it is not as good as my custom-made golden needles, the effect is not much worse."
The most important thing is that it is cheap, and he can give away a box without blinking an eye.
Man Bao's eyes lit up and he asked: "Teacher Mo, you use gold needles? Can you make a set for me too?"
Teacher Mo was confused, "Are you sure you want it? This golden needle needs regular maintenance to keep it shining. I'm afraid you don't have the maintenance conditions there."
Man Bao felt something was wrong and said, "This is used to prick people to treat illnesses. Why should it be shiny?"
"This is gold. It's such a shiny and precious thing. If you don't maintain it to make it sparkling, is it worthy of its value?"
Man Bao: "...You can give away silver needles at will. Is gold very expensive?"
Teacher Mo: "Yes, it's very expensive."
Keke then gave Manbao a popular education: "There is no shortage of silver ore in the Interstellar Alliance, and there is no shortage of gold ore. Moreover, humans like to use gold to make various things. For example, you here also like to use gold to make jewelry."
Man Bao understood that rare things are valuable.
Teacher Mo, who is very rich among human beings in the future, thought it was too expensive, so she couldn't afford it anymore. Manbao forgot about it and said, "Teacher Mo, please send me a box of silver needles."
, I will also try your craftsmanship."
"Okay, I'm doing research in the hospital recently, and it may take some time to get back, but don't worry, I'll definitely get it before your birthday."
Man Bao calculated his birthday and found that it was still more than two months away, so he said: "Then you have to go back quickly, my birthday is coming soon."
"Okay, I'll remember it all and I'll send it to you as soon as I get back."
Manbao decided to ask every other day.
When he went to the field the next day, there were about twenty patients waiting in front of the medical shed. Manbao put down his things and started to see the doctor. When Doctor Ji came, he asked Xiaoyuan to bring a large jar of ointment and give it to Zhou Lijun.
Zhou Lijun carried it in and gave it to Manbao. Manbao took a look at it, smelled it and nodded, that's what it smelled like.
Yesterday, the girl came quickly. Manbao applied some ointment to her, and then said: "Go home and bring a clean small box or jar. I will mix some for you. From now on, apply it once in the morning and evening. Here it is.
You should also take your medicine on time."
Manbao pinched the needle and inserted it into her, and said: "Your disease needs to be treated internally. The external medicine is just to make you feel better, to relieve itching and reduce heat."
The girl agreed and looked at Manbao pricking needles on both her arms and legs. She blinked and asked, "Why is it different from the ones injected yesterday?"
Man Bao said: "Tomorrow will be even different. I will also help you tie up your back tomorrow."
The girl blushed and asked in a low voice: "Will anyone come in?"
"No, it's separated by a curtain. Just lie down peacefully and sleep for a while. I'll take out the needle when the time comes."
People who needed her daily acupuncture rushed over in the morning. There was a person lying on the bed beside her, and even an old woman came. Fortunately, she could only sit and do the acupuncture.
The old woman didn't have any pajamas at all. She was sitting on a stool watching Man Bao treat patients and talking to her with a smile, "Is the little doctor's family from Luojiang County?"
Man Bao responded and asked: "How did you know?"
"Everyone knows," the old woman said with squinted eyes. "Everyone in the area where we live is talking about the little doctor. They say that you are kind-hearted and good-looking. Luojiang County has such an intelligent person like you. I don't know why.
What a great place.”
Manbao thought for a while and said: "Our Luojiang County is not as lively as Yizhou City, but it is also very fun. The most important thing is that it is comfortable. If you have the opportunity to go there in the future, you will know after staying there for a while."
"Definitely, definitely."
After Manbao pulled out the needles for Gao and the girl, the girl lowered her head and went home to get the jar. However, Gao did not leave, but sat aside to help cook the needles and medicine.
Seeing how pale her face was, Zhou Lijun was a little afraid to ask her for help.
Man Bao also said: "You should go back and rest. Make sure you eat every day, take medicine, and rest in bed more. After a few more injections, you will have to get out of bed and move around more."
Mrs. Gao couldn't help but glance at the old woman, lowered her head in response, and then bowed to Man Bao and left.
Man Bao glanced at the old woman, smiled, and then called the next patient in for treatment.
She thought the matter was over, but when she went back in the evening, Aunt Rong ran out and said, "Miss Man, you are always back. Look at the firewood in the yard."
Man Bao jumped out of the car, looked at the firewood piled half a corner in the yard, widened his eyes and asked: "Aunt Rong, why did you buy so much firewood?"
"I bought it. It was picked out by a man named Chen Erlang and his brother. He made three trips back and forth. He specified that it was for you. He said thank you for saving his wife. Oh, by the way, he said he
My wife is Gao, please don’t remember me wrong.”
Manbao:……
Everyone:......
Bai Shan turned his head and looked at Man Bao. Seeing the shock on her face, he couldn't help laughing.
Bai Erlang didn't react for a while, but it took him a while to figure it out. He held his stomach and laughed, feeling that he wasn't sleepy at all.
Mr. Zhuang laughed, shook his head, went in with his hands behind his back, and let them go.
