Early on Saturday morning, on the ninth day of the lunar month, I was pulled out of bed. After a quick breakfast in the cafeteria, I got on the bus to the city.
"Haha, Teacher Ding is so kind. Uncle Ding, when you call Teacher Ding next time, thank Teacher Ding for us."
At this time, Chujiu and I were in Uncle Ding's office at the Chamber of Commerce. As soon as Chujiu entered the door, he saw the Little Overlord game console packaging box placed on Uncle Ding's desk. He jumped up and held the game console, looking left and right, fearing that something might happen.
It was like flying away suddenly.
"Uncle Ding, if the Chamber of Commerce is not busy, you should take a good rest."
Uncle Ding has significantly more gray hair on his head than a month ago, and he looks tired.
"Hey, I was born to be a hard worker. When I was the vice president, I didn't realize that there were so many trivial things in the chamber of commerce."
Uncle Ding looked dotingly at Chujiu who was jumping up and down, with a smile on his lips. He was not so happy when he lost thousands of dollars to Chujiu in a card game. Xiaoyu was able to capture the young man's preferences.
Uncle Ding and I were chatting when someone knocked on the door of the office and hurried in with a stack of documents in his hand. Uncle Ding apologized and said we would wait for him for a while, as he had official business to deal with.
"As long as you're busy, give me the keys to your luxury car. Guoguo and I will go out to play for a while. Remember to prepare something delicious for us at noon."
In the surprised look on the visitor's face, Uncle Ding changed his usual dignity and took out the car key from his pants pocket and handed it to Chujiu with a smile.
When he walked out of the office, the young man holding the documents glanced at Chujiu again out of the corner of his eye, with an expression that suggested that Chujiu must be Uncle Ding's illegitimate son.
I asked Chujiu what he was up to. Chujiu smiled mysteriously and told me to get in the car and follow him.
Chujiu shouted and once again realized the power of luxury cars. Even on a congested road, the cars that were blocking the road would slowly slow down and give way when they saw our shiny black approaching.
It wasn't until our car was stopped by the guard at the gate of the medicine company that I guessed Chujiu's intention of bringing me out.
"Look for your old-fashioned guy."
The doorman of Gu Yongnian's company was not a simple person. When he saw our car, he asked a few questions enthusiastically and said that since he was a friend of the chairman, there was no need to bother getting out of the car to register. He would register it for us.
"Hey, you two brats came here without even saying hello? You're not afraid that my trip back to the countryside will be in vain on the weekend."
Gu Yongnian, who was sitting at his desk reading the newspaper, was surprised that we came to play with him.
"It doesn't matter whether you're here or not. Is it possible that you wouldn't sell medicine to us if you weren't here? It's just that you don't have to pay for it."
Chujiu was never polite to the friends he considered, so he lay down directly on the sofa in Gu Yongnian's office, saying that he would get some authentic medicinal materials to save Gu Yongnian's brother.
"Save my brother?"
There are some prescriptions for strengthening the body in the Taoism learned in Chujiu School. The medicinal materials are relatively common, but there are some particularities about the year and place of production.
The purpose of coming to the medicinal material company to find Gu Yongnian was to buy authentic medicinal materials. Even if he went back to live in the countryside, his employees would not dare to tamper with the medicinal materials because they were his friends.
The prescription mentioned by Chujiu is adapted from the Shiquan Dabu Wan in Taoism.
Chu Jiu kept talking about the year and place of production in demand, and the prescriptions of ginseng, shu, lingcocos and grass are the four monarchs, which can replenish qi and nourish the middle, strengthen the spleen and stomach. It is a prescription for treating deficiency of spleen and stomach qi and weak transportation and transformation.
The four ingredients Gui, Qiong, Di, and Shae peony have the effect of nourishing the blood. They have the effect of nourishing without stagnating, revitalizing stasis without breaking. In addition, astragalus nourishes qi and raises yang, strengthens the surface and stops sweating, and cinnamon warms the gate of life and replenishes the true essence.
.
If you insist on taking this medicine for two months, Uncle Ding's hair will turn gray, his energy will become better, and his physical condition will become ten years younger.
"If I'm not mistaken, jujube and ginger are added to improve sleep, right?"
After listening to Chujiu's explanation, Gu Yongnian asked with a jealous look on his face why Chujiu didn't know how to find a prescription for him to replenish his health?
"Teacher Ding bought me a game console in the United States, what did you give me? Besides, didn't you write down the prescriptions on paper? You want to lie to the child again."
Chu Jiu rolled his eyes at Gu Yongnian. If he asked for other prescriptions, he would have to charge money.
"Okay, okay, just take the money. I'm tired of hearing you talk about cause and effect every time. Can you tell me what medicine is suitable for me?"
Chujiu originally just made a joke, but unexpectedly Gu Yongnian actually asked him to give him a prescription. Chujiu stared at Gu Yongnian for a long time and asked him to stretch out his arm to take a pulse.
"Guo Guo?"
Two minutes later, Chujiu called me with a bitter look on his face and an embarrassed tone, and Gu Yongnian also looked at me.
Perhaps it was because Gu Yongnian was a businessman. The first thing I looked at was his Wealth and Silk Palace. There were no signs of ups and downs, indicating that his business was very stable.
I happened to see Chu Jiu wink at me out of the corner of my eye. I noticed Gu Yongnian's face again. There were two inconspicuous white dots on both sides of the corners of his mouth. That was it.
"Haha, the relationship between the boss and his sister-in-law is still the same as before. It can be said that they are getting stronger and stronger."
"Yi Zhuang ass!"
After I discovered the problem, Gu Yongnian was not shy and told us that her wife had been fed ecstasy soup by some friend and she had been pestering him recently to have another baby.
As a result, Gu Yongnian, who was two years older than Uncle Ding, did not dare to go back to the countryside to live in the countryside during the weekend. He felt pain when he thought about having to pay public food and two waists when he went back.
"Come on, old man, I'm optimistic about you."
Chujiu was lying on the sofa, leaning forward and laughing. He had checked his pulse before and found several problems, and he was still thinking about how to talk to Gu Yongnian.
"Look at the hammer, don't think about how old I am? This woman also said that the wind is the wind. Recently, I feel cold even when I sleep under two quilts."
Gu Yongnian looked at Chujiu as if asking for help. He had tried the few prescriptions left by the medicinal materials company, including Liuwei Rehmannia and Bawei Rehmannia glutinosa, but felt that they had no effect.
"Not to mention, I really know a prescription included in "Ancient and Modern Medical Traditions" called Life-Extension Pill. It nourishes yin and yang and strengthens the muscles and bones. But making the pill is too troublesome."
"Trouble? I'm a medicinal company. No trouble, no trouble. Just tell me the recipe and I'll remember it."
Gu Yongnian suddenly became energetic, picked up a pen and paper and sat next to Chujiu, urging Chujiu what medicinal materials he needed.
Chu Jiu mentioned dozens of medicinal materials in one breath, many of which I had never heard of even though I had read many books on traditional Chinese medicine, and I didn’t know how he remembered them.
This life-extending pill is more complicated than the prescription given to Uncle Ding before. Basically, each medicinal material needs to be processed separately.
Gu Yongnian recorded page after page with a pen, the expression on his face became more and more complex. Finally, after recording the last process, Gu Yongnian looked at Chujiu in disbelief.
