Five hundred and eighty-fourth chapter grand inspection (seven)
On March 15, 1677, after attending a large-scale meeting organized by the Beiyazihu District Administration, Qi Wangping, chairman of the Executive Committee of the East Coast of China, took a special car to Liushuying Township, Ping'an County, dozens of kilometers away, where the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory was located. ( . .)
The reason why this township is called Liushuying was initially because a large number of willow trees were planted locally to provide the key raw materials of willow bark to the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory that was specially relocated here. In that era when the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory was founded, in addition to some scattered herbal configuration businesses (they were originally small-scale workshop-style industries that were unified and integrated into the new Northern Pharmaceutical Factory by the Ministry of Health), the heat-clearing and antipyretic aspirin was almost the largest source of profit for the factory and also became a symbol of the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory.
Many people say that if the supply of raw materials (willow bark) is not restricting the production of drugs, I believe the profits here will be higher, enough to exceed the sum of the sales of messy drugs including ferrous sulfate, cod liver oil, aloe vera oil, senna, foxglove, spitz, iodine, opium wine, etc., which can be seen.
Of course, as the East Coast continued to invest in the medical and pharmaceutical industries for many years, the results began to emerge slowly. Especially as the colonial tentacles of the East Coast people became deeper and deeper, the production of best-selling drugs including cinchona frost, wind oil, cooling oil, active oil, safflower oil, wind oil, and 108 medicinal wine became higher and higher. The money brought to the northern pharmaceutical factories has given them more money to invest in the research and development and production of new drugs, and continue to work hard for the welfare of the people on the East Coast. Of course, the Ministry of Health will not forget this hen that lays golden eggs. As a state-owned enterprise, the profits generated by its operations will naturally be extracted by shareholders (the Ministry of Health is its only shareholder). Therefore, the disease control publicity funds in many places across the country have been settled, which made the men of the Ministry of Health very happy. At the same time, they also kept sighing that the pharmaceutical industry is really a profitable industry.
When Qi Wangping and others arrived in Liushuying Township, the scale of the willow forest here was already very large. It looked one after another, continuous, making people wonder how many aspirin medicines this northern pharmaceutical factory would make! At 4 pm on March 15, with a sharp whistle, the La Plata Star train carrying Qi Wangping slowly drove into Liushuying Railway Station and finally stopped in the platform.
"Chairman Qi, this year is the second revision of "Song Medical Record Examination" and "Ming Medical Record Examination". Therefore, many medical practitioners have a meeting here, and everyone wants to meet you." As soon as Qi Wangping got off the car, the director of the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory walked over like an enclave and said loudly.
"Oh? Are the editorial teams of these two medical masterpieces here? Then I have to meet you, let's lead the way, Director Shou." Qi Wangping had read the secretary's report before coming and knew that the director of this pharmaceutical factory was the son of the late retired army major Taoist priest Shou. That "fake Taoist priest" Qi Wangping also had an impression that he had fought for the country's expeditions and had been living in seclusion in Tacheng County, New China Island, and it was said that he had recovered his old career and was doing some alchemy. Now it seems that his alchemy has not achieved much results after all, because he had died of illness two years ago, and only his old subordinate Anda 151 attended his funeral.
His son is over 30 years old and has been smart since childhood. Therefore, he was sent to the local area by Taoist Shou and entrusted to his comrades to take care of him. He was also very successful. He studied medical skills from Taoist Shou since childhood and was right about the science of medicine. On the east coast, this is a subject defined as science. Therefore, he was admitted to the Capital Medical School directly under the Ministry of Health. After graduation, he went directly to work in the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory and actually participated in the research and development of tropical drugs such as Fengliu, cooling oil, and made a lot of contributions. Therefore, after the former time traveler factory director retired due to lack of energy, he was indeed promoted to two levels in a row and became the director of the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory, and even made the second generation who coveted this position disappointed. It was also amazing.
Almost all members of the compilation group of "Song Medical Records Examination" and "Ming Medical Records Examination" are from mainland China. Because only they are proficient in medical theories and the characteristics of some drugs, they are selected to verify various prescriptions. If useful, they are included in the medical code, and if useless, they are discarded or left for later review.
Now that time has passed, people from the East Coast have collected many prescriptions from mainland China, and some of the original doubts have made new discoveries or explanations. Therefore, this time, the Ministry of Health gathered these people and gathered them in the northern pharmaceutical factory in Liushuying, dispensed various drugs recently, and then conducted experiments.
It is worth mentioning that this time, the Ministry of Health is compiling a programmatic book called the East Coast Pharmacopoeia, intending to include various ancient (provided to be proven to be effective) or newly invented drugs. If nothing unexpected happens, the prescriptions in the new version of the "Song Medical Book Examination" and "Ming Medical Book Examination" must be included. Therefore, the compilation work this time is also very strict. Each prescription must be tested repeatedly and different patients must be found to verify it to ensure that it is effective before it will be included.
Qi Wangping did not disturb the doctors' work too much, but expressed his gratitude for their hard work. Then he held a symposium with medical staff at all levels of the district, county and township that accompanied him here and listened to the work report of the medical system.
"The health construction in the Beiyazi Lake area is like other places. It is uniformly deployed by the Ministry of Health, but there are also differences. Considering the backward mass development in this region, it is extremely difficult to prevent once the virus invades from the outside world. Therefore, we took advantage of the opportunity of fewer patients in the winter hospital and dispatched local medical and health personnel and organized ten medical tour teams, each with 3 doctors, 1 pharmacist, 8 students and security guards, and went to some places with humid climates and poor environmental conditions to provide medical services. For tuberculosis, which is the key to preventing, we also thought of several measures. The first is to stipulate the annual winter outdoor activity week to guide the improvement of people's lifestyle and prevent tuberculosis. There are also special measures to prevent many flower and willow diseases, including syphilis, and the most important thing is to establish the ** private prostitution.
The principle of health diagnosis (East Coast ** is not legal, but the government often turns a blind eye), that is, once it is found that he has cynopathy, especially syphilis, he will be taken into shelter and placed in a ‘special women’s sanatorium’ for labor treatment.” The deputy commissioner in charge of medical and health in the region introduced his political achievements in a silence. He then said: “After successfully completing the construction of the railway hospital (located in Ping'an County), the railway hygiene situation has been improved rapidly. We spent a year conducting hearing investigations on train drivers and crew members of the Northern Railway, and the air in the working environment has also been investigated. In order to prevent train accidents, Ping'an Railway Hospital has also organized a special emergency railway ambulance team to provide emergency assistance to various situations that occur in drivers and passengers.”
"In the future, our main job is to concentrate on assisting in the recruitment of medical staff at Ping An Memorial Hospital. We have fully understood the necessity of this work and have raised special funds to recruit graduates from Capital Medical School to ensure that the memorial hospital can operate normally as soon as possible after it is completed." The Deputy Health Commissioner continued.
He mentioned that the Ping An Memorial Hospital, which he mentioned just now, is currently working on civil engineering. The special funds applied for by the Ministry of Health also rely on the Dongfeng of the domestic large infrastructure. At the same time, the Northern Pharmaceutical Factory, the Beiyazihu District Administration and the Ping An County Government jointly invested a huge amount of 200,000 yuan to build the hospital (the East Coast Company is said to have also donated 30,000 yuan, and will be received next month).
This hospital is large in scale and was established to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the time traveler's landing. Therefore, it is called the "Memorial Hospital". It can be called a face-saving project for the time travelers. Therefore, it raised a huge sum of more than 200,000 yuan for civil construction, equipment and medicine procurement, and personnel recruitment and training, which is a rare big deal.
The hospital covers a vast area, and the square in front of the hospital can accommodate hundreds of carriages. The roads paved in the hospital are flat and well-connected. The main building and the side building adopt traditional buildings, and many new technologies including steel and cement are adopted. Both the design and technology reflect the highest level of the East Coast. The Peaceful Memorial Hospital is designed by the famous East Coast architect and the director of the Capital Architectural Design Institute, and the second-generation Sun Dapeng.
Ping An Memorial Hospital has four floors and a basement of five floors. The first floor has a general internal medicine outpatient clinic (in fact, there are currently no medical treatments on the east bank, but the types of diseases are divided into strict classification), nurses' rooms, doctors' rooms, laboratories, pharmacies, general affairs rooms, security rooms, accounting rooms and shops; the second floor is the location of pediatrics and obstetrics and gynecology, which is similar to the first floor, but there are more director's offices and conference rooms; the third floor is the special zone for infectious diseases
, the setting is just like the first two floors, but there are more pathological and bacterial rooms; the fourth floor is more complicated, mainly composed of dental outpatient and treatment rooms, libraries, auditoriums, classrooms, binding rooms, spa bathrooms, steam baths, massage rooms, gypsum bandage rooms, injection production rooms, restaurants, etc.; the basement contains information rooms, medicines and refrigerator rooms (using ether refrigerators, the cost is not low), incubator manufacturing rooms, patient bathrooms, barbers, duty rooms, miscellaneous warehouses and other departments.
The lateral building has three floors, plus the basement floor, mostly nurse dormitory, mailroom, reception room, ventilation room, burning and disinfection room, warehouse, ordinary bathroom, infusion room, mechanical room (with some equipment including original electrocardiogram), etc. In addition, there are several small annexes, mainly boiler room, telegraph room, fire house, dissection room, specimen room, water supply tank, gas room (providing fuel to gas lamps), animal room, etc.
From the setting, we can see that it is worthy of being a hospital that costs more than 200,000 yuan in huge amounts. Ping An Memorial Hospital is at least the scale of the country. Not only are the other two hospitals in Ping An County, Ping An County People's Hospital and Ping An Railway Hospital, which are much higher, even the hospitals in the capital and Qingdao County are not as good as those in the country. It is worthy of being an industrial center and a metropolis in the north!
In addition, we can also see that after more than 40 years of development, the medical industry on the East Coast has made too much progress. The disaster-like medical system and coverage system of Europe and the United States in the Old Continent is almost completely incompatible with the East Coast, let alone the huge differences in ideas and understandings of everyone. From this point of view, the East Coast Republic of China claims to be a beacon is really not exaggerated, and the gap between the Old Continent and them is too big.
I believe that after decades of development, with the increasing strength of the East Coast's national strength and the continuous development of population, economy and society, other new hospitals with the Ping An Memorial Hospital as the benchmark will surely develop like mushrooms after a rain across the country, benefiting the people of the country. It is of great benefit.
"Ping An Memorial Hospital costs a lot, so there are many complaints in other places in the country. Therefore, after one year of completion and operation, the Ministry of Health will no longer provide funds to it. Everything must be the responsibility of the hospital itself, which means that it is self-sufficiency. Of course, in order to make the hospital safely survive the difficult period, the Ministry of Finance will allow Ping An Memorial Hospital to issue ten-year bonds with an annual interest rate of 5% in Qingdao financial market. "Qi Wangping is still aware of Ping An Memorial Hospital (the fact is very familiar with most of the living time travelers), so he commented a few words: "Of course, you don't have to worry too much. Ping An County has a large population, almost 90,000, and there are many factories and mines, with developed businesses, and the people's general income level is high, and they can still afford the medical services of the Memorial Hospital. Therefore, as long as they can recruit qualified medical staff, I think Ping An Memorial Hospital's profit prospects are very considerable, and there is no need to worry too much."
"In addition, from your introduction, I found that our country's medical industry has made great progress. Once upon a time, we did not have any medicine, and there was no regular hospital. Malaria, tuberculosis, leprosy, plague, cholera, dysentery, syphilis and other diseases raging across the country. The child mortality rate was huge. At the worst, one-third of children could not live beyond three years. At that time, what a difficult situation we were facing, it was frightening to think about it." Qi Wangping felt at this time
He summed it up with a sigh and heard him say, "So I am very moved and even moved now. Our career has reached this point today, which is really something we did not expect at the beginning. So I now urge you to continue to work hard in the future and continue the career we created. We want to create more inventions for the people, produce more commodities, and provide better medical services. Please, please work hard for this career."
