Chapter 258 I Can Cure This Disease
Beautiful country.
Someone once said, if you love someone, send him to the Big Apple, because it is heaven. If you hate someone, send him to the Big Apple, because it is hell.
Little Robert lives in this city where heaven and hell are intertwined.
Of course, for an excellent middle-class elite, in his opinion, the Big Apple is definitely the best city in the world.
Because this is the capital of the world, the cultural and economic capital of the world.
The ultimate prosperity.
Here, as long as you have money, you can buy anything.
For example, the aphrodisiac drug "Palace Emperor Pills" has always been in short supply on the market.
It is said that this medicine was transported from a mysterious ancient oriental country. After he used it once by chance a few years ago, he was immediately amazed by its effects.
From then on, he became a loyal user of this medicine.
At the same time, my heart is filled with sincere praise for the person who invented this medicine, who is simply spreading the glory of God to the world.
As a middle-class elite, he earns a considerable amount of money. Of course, there is a price to pay for every gain, and the pressure he is under every day is also extremely high.
This results in a situation where a man in his thirties often has the will but not the ability, and his beautiful wife at home often stares at other men in a daze.
This made him feel more anxious, and he sought medical help and medication countless times, but there was no good solution.
Until a few years ago, a street thug mysteriously sold this drug to him. No one knew what he was thinking at the time, but he somehow paid for it.
After I bought it, I regretted it so much. How could there be any medicine in the world that could be as magical as that gangster said?
In other words, with the mentality of not wasting it and giving it a try, he took it that night with trepidation. After using it for half an hour, he changed his mind.
It's worth spending any amount of money to get back to the energy that you had when you were 18 or 19.
Thereafter.
He always keeps this medicine at home, and is willing to pay a high price for it even if it is in great demand on the market.
A few nights ago, after the family's stock ran out, his wife Laura reminded him several times to buy a few more boxes today.
In fact, he would have thought about buying it even without Laura telling him.
So, during the lunch break, he went to a familiar store as usual and bought five boxes.
It was these five boxes that the shop owner specially reserved for him as he was an old customer and had paid a deposit in advance. Otherwise, he would not have been able to get the goods for at least ten days or half a month.
You know, this is a hard currency like gold, and some people even use it as money to trade.
"Honey, I'm back."
After returning home and changing his shoes, Robert saw his wife busying herself in the living room with her back to him and her waist bent. His heart was moved and his belly felt hot, and he greeted her loudly.
The two things he was most proud of in his life were studying hard when he was young and then finding a decent and lucrative job.
The other one married the campus belle from college.
Laura was almost ten years younger than him. Her pretty face and especially her devilish figure made him unable to let her go.
Straightening up and turning around slowly, Laura also smiled: “Dear, dinner is ready, waiting for you.”
As he said that, he walked forward and took his briefcase.
When she saw the familiar medicine boxes in the briefcase, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
After all, she is almost thirty years old now, and her needs are high.
night.
Had a specially prepared candlelight dinner.
Without bothering to clean up the mess on the table, the two of them rushed into the bedroom impatiently.
A few minutes later, Laura looked at her husband with suspicion and asked in confusion: "Dear, did you take the medicine just now?"
"I ate it. You handed it to me yourself."
Little Robert said with a frown.
Just now, he wanted to show off his prowess, but unfortunately, this time, for some reason, he returned to the state of a sixty-second man.
"Then why are you so lame today? Not even one tenth of your usual performance."
"I don't know. I'm also very curious."
Little Robert scratched his head and said with embarrassment.
Finally, after analyzing the reasons for a long time, the two finally found the "culprit".
"F**K, S**t, damn it, he actually sold me fake products. I bought so many medicines from him in the past few years. I will go to him to settle the score tomorrow."
Little Robert got angry when he saw the two boxes on the bed which were very similar, but upon closer inspection, he could still tell they were different.
No wonder he was not feeling well today, it turned out that the medicine he took was fake.
"Dear, I will definitely settle the score with him tomorrow and ask him to replace the medicine with real ones and compensate us for our losses."
Laura, who was unsatisfied, also had an angry look on her face.
She was really looking forward to today, but who knew it ended abruptly before she could even feel it.
This scene has appeared in several major cities in the United States.
Many people have bought fake goods, and even store owners have suffered heavy losses due to their carelessness.
"Meng De, the relevant departments noticed the situation in the United States and immediately launched an investigation, and then shipped the counterfeit drugs back through special channels.
After learning the news, the government immediately organized relevant research institutes to conduct research and found that the ingredients of the fake drugs were all flour, honey, etc., which had no effect at all. "
Dean Lu said with a look of confusion on his face.
When the test results came out, not only him but even his superiors were speechless.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
At the beginning, they were very nervous, fearing that foreign countries would make breakthroughs in related technologies and imitate drugs with the same effects.
If that were the case, the loss would be huge.
The foreign exchange income will be lost by at least tens of millions of dollars every year.
After all, the reason why foreign countries can accept and sell this drug in large quantities in their countries is entirely because of its unique technology.
Wang Mengde frowned and was a little shocked. He didn't expect that a counterfeit would appear.
But if you think about it, you will understand that the main reason is that the profits here are very huge.
There is only one bottle in a box of medicine, which contains fifty pills, enough for only five doses.
The factory price is already very high, and after dealers add layers of markup, the price reaches users at one or two times higher.
And even though the price is so high, there is no problem selling it. Basically, as soon as the goods arrive, they are sold out.
This kind of highly profitable business has certainly attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Dean, have you found out who sold the product and whether he has a backer?"
Wang Mengde thought about it and then asked.
If it is just a few petty thieves selling counterfeit goods privately, it is not a big problem and there is no need for domestic action. Relevant foreign interest groups will clear the obstacles.
I'm just afraid of those who have backers behind them.
"We don't know yet. Our superiors have asked the relevant departments to investigate and will report the results as soon as possible."
Dean Lu also thought of this, and he explained.
"Dean, I don't think we need to rush.
As it stands, foreign countries still cannot do without this product. According to my guess, within 20 years, foreign countries will not be able to break through this technology using Western medicine.
Therefore, we can sit back and relax and not be affected by this.”
Wang Mengde saw that Dean Lu was still a little conflicted, so he comforted him.
In the past, the invention of drugs that can help with sexual intercourse was completely accidental, and it was in the 1980s and 1990s. Now with this butterfly effect, whether foreign countries can discover it as before is still unknown.
Even if it is invented by then, he is not afraid. Compared with those western medicines with side effects, the Chinese patent medicine "Palace Emperor Pills" is much more reliable.
Sunday.
Tiange Village.
Along the way from the village entrance to grandma's house, many villagers seemed particularly friendly when they saw Wang Mengde.
Before, everyone knew that he had superb medical skills and strong connections, so everyone was polite to him.
The last time, he called Xu Damao and showed movies in Tiangezhuang for three consecutive days. Everyone admired him even more.
"Meng De is here. Have you had breakfast?"
Just as he arrived at the door of his house, Zhou Tingting came out of the yard carrying a bamboo basket and a sieve in her hand. When she saw him, she said with surprise.
"Auntie, I've eaten. What are you going to do?"
Wang Mengde stopped his bicycle and asked curiously.
"Haha, Meng De, I didn't go to work today. I plan to go to the nearby river to wash some grain. While the sun is good, I will dry it in the afternoon and go to the commune to grind some flour."
Zhou Tingting explained with a smile.
Unlike in the city, you can't buy flour directly in the countryside.
Except for the years when the communal meals were served, at other times every household would wash the wheat clean, dry it, and then send it to the flour mill, where they would spend some money to grind it into flour.
If you don’t have money, you can just use bran to offset it.
And we don’t care about 85% flour or 92% flour, we just use as much flour as possible.
Because there is a lot of wheat bran left in the flour, which causes the color to turn yellow. Even if the steamed buns are made entirely of flour, they will be gray.
After entering the house, Wang Tian saw her eldest grandson coming, and her eyes narrowed with joy.
"Meng De, come here quickly.
Meng Qi, why don't you go and get your brother a stool and make him a cup of tea."
Wang Mengqi, who was about to go to work at the Shahe Meat Processing Factory, quickly agreed:
"Hey~, I'll go right away."
He walked into the main room quickly and brought out a small stool and placed it next to Wang Mengde: "Cousin, please sit down first. I'll make you some tea."
Wang Mengde was not polite. He sat down next to his grandmother and looked at his cousin's busy figure, then asked with concern:
"Meng Qi, how do you feel about working at the meat processing factory?"
Before Wang Mengqi could speak, Wang Tian happily said:
"Meng De, thanks to you, Meng Qi was able to go to work at the meat processing factory. He has been there for less than a month and several matchmakers have come to his house.
If your aunt hadn't been so unimpressed, the girl might have married into our family."
Although the Marriage Law was promulgated as early as 50, it stipulates that men must be years old and girls must be years old to get married.
But in rural areas, not much compliance is done.
It has only been a dozen years since liberation, and many residual ideas still affect rural areas.
It is common to see people getting married at the age of 16, 17, or 18.
As long as they are in love and both parents agree, there is no wedding. The girl can just go directly to the boy's house carrying a small package and two pieces of clothing.
They have never even obtained a marriage certificate in their entire lives.
"Grandma, Meng Qi is still young. It won't be too late to wait another two years. He has a job, so it won't be easy for him to find a wife."
Wang Mengde reached out to take the enamel pot handed over by his cousin, and then persuaded with a smile.
"He's not young anymore. Your grandfather, your uncle, and your cousin were all married when they were his age.
That is, your father and you, living in the city, got married late. "
Wang Tian shook her head and said.
Although she is still in good health now, she also hopes to see her grandchildren get married and start their own families before she dies.
Just when the two of them were chatting.
The courtyard door was suddenly opened, and Tian Laba walked in with a panicked look on his face, holding a child in his arms.
When he saw Wang Mengde, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly:
"Meng De, Meng De, please help me take a look."
"Uncle, don't worry, what's going on?"
Wang Mengde stood up and asked quickly.
"Little Dog was playing just now when he suddenly fell to the ground, twitching and foaming at the mouth."
Tian Laba said quickly.
Xiaogoudan is the nickname of his grandson, who is only nine years old this year.
When the disease first broke out, he was frightened. Fortunately, he remembered that Wang Mengde had returned, so he ran to Wang's house with his grandson in his arms.
"Put it down quickly, let me take a look."
After listening to his story and observing Xiaogoudan's condition, Wang Mengde had an idea in his mind.
This is epilepsy, also commonly known as seizures.
When the disease occurs, the patient convulses meaninglessly and foams at the mouth.
Carefully letting Xiao Gou Dan lie sideways in his arms to prevent him from choking, Wang Mengde pinched his philtrum a few times with his fingers.
Soon, with his movements, the child gradually returned to normal.
Seeing that his grandson had stopped twitching, Tian Laba let out a long sigh and then asked in a low voice:
"Meng De, what's going on with Puppy Egg?"
"Uncle, he is sick. He has epilepsy."
Wang Mengde said directly.
There's no way to hide this kind of thing, so I just tell the truth.
"Ah? How could I get this disease? Could it be that you saw it wrong?" Tian Laba was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically.
He could hardly accept this reality.
"Uncle, don't worry. I can cure this disease."
Wang Mengde saw his anxious look and spoke quickly.
This was not just consolation, but the truth. In Guang'anmen Hospital, he cured many cases of epilepsy. The earliest case was cured for three or four years and has not recurred since then.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, but it may cost a lot of money."
"It's okay. Don't worry about the money. As long as my grandson's illness can be cured, I'll sell everything I have."
Tian Laba said proudly.
He was scared to death just now.
My grandson has epilepsy, it will be difficult for him to find a partner in the future.
If Wang Mengde can really be cured, he is willing to spend any amount of money.
"Okay, I'll write you a prescription and tell you what to pay attention to."
As Wang Mengde spoke, he observed Xiaogoudan's expression again.
Suddenly, he found that the other person's nostrils were full of black stuff. He was shocked and asked quickly:
"Uncle, what's in this nose? Have you ever seen this before?"
