Chapter 387 Rotation Mode and 'Urea Pants'

The doctors who are in training are finally coming.

Some time ago, his superiors had already mentioned this matter to him, saying that the first batch of doctors would be selected soon.

I didn't expect it would be delayed for so long.

"Dean, are these dozen people all doctors from other hospitals in Beijing?"

Wang Mengde asked curiously.

“Yes, they are all doctors from other hospitals in Beijing, maybe there are some acquaintances.

You may not know this, but in order to grab these dozen or so places for further training, the leaders of those hospitals are almost fighting to the point of bloodshed, as everyone wants to get one or two more places.

If the superiors hadn’t forced the assignment, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be able to select the person now.”

Dean Lu said with a smile.

During this period, he also received calls from several hospital directors, all of whom wanted him to intercede and see if they could get an extra spot.

After all, this is a rare opportunity to improve medical skills.

Now the news has spread to all the hospitals in Beijing. If you study with Wang Mengde, you will definitely learn something. Wang Mengde’s fellow students are role models.

Not only did he learn the medical skills, but he also taught all the secret recipes and proven prescriptions without reservation.

Many hospitals habitually come to Wang Mengde for help when they encounter difficult and complicated diseases.

If Wang Mengde happened to be away, Li Xiang and others would take turns going there.

At the beginning, those people didn't quite believe in their medical skills. It was not until Li Xiang and others took action and cured some very difficult diseases that their reputation gradually spread.

In addition to admiring Wang Mengde's selflessness, what people envy most is his fellow junior brothers and sisters.

I am so lucky and happy to be able to study under this person for more than five years.

And now, they finally have this opportunity, so except for those old Chinese medicine doctors who are too old to do so for the sake of face, the rest of the doctors all want to fight for it.

After fierce competition, the final spot was finally settled.

The first batch of lucky people, a total of fifteen people, will come to Guang'anmen Hospital next Monday.

“That’s great. Recently, there are more and more foreign patients, and the three newly built intensive care units are almost full.

With so many people coming at once, I am almost overwhelmed and don’t even have time to write my thesis.

After these fifteen people come, my pressure will be relieved to some extent, and I can free up time to write the paper."

Wang Mengde also said with a smile.

"Haha, you can feel free to use these doctors who come here for further studies. They are elites selected from various hospitals and have a solid foundation in medicine.

Besides, they are here to learn things. If you don’t let them get started, it will be bad and they might even complain.”

Dean Lu's face immediately broke into a smile when he thought about how these trainees who came here had to help with the work just like farmhands and didn't ask for any salary.

"By the way, the intensive care unit is short of staff, right? Should we ask each department to send a group of people to assist?

Don't worry, both the Chinese Medical Research Institute and Guang'anmen Hospital have recruited a lot of staff in the past few years. Even if some more people are transferred, it will not affect the work of the hospital too much.

You don’t know that the first group of people who went there not only received training and learned superb medical skills, but also had priority for promotion in the future.

This situation caused complaints from those who didn’t go, and some even wrote applications, saying they wanted to take turns going.”

During this period after the New Year, he was actually under a lot of pressure.

Since only a small number of employees benefit, the others will definitely be dissatisfied.

These people are all his subordinates. How to deal with them so that everyone, or most of them, are satisfied, is his biggest headache.

I didn’t expect that after the three intensive care unit buildings were built, the effect of attracting people would be so good. Before long, the two or three hundred wards were almost full.

With so many more patients, the staff previously allocated are no longer enough.

We can take this opportunity to transfer another batch of people to ease the conflict.

At the same time, he also thought that next year, the first batch of people would return to their respective departments, and the others would take turns.

This is what is fair and just.

"Dean, you decide on this matter. I will resolutely obey your arrangements."

Wang Mengde said seriously.

He doesn't want to get involved in matters involving interests, and personnel rights are usually the private domain of the head of the unit.

"Well, let's hold a meeting next Monday to discuss this matter."

Dean Lu was very satisfied with Wang Mengde's answer and nodded.

“Also, I just heard that you are going to write a paper and publish it in one of the top foreign journals.

In recent years, you have published several papers every year. Your superiors have praised you many times during meetings and asked the Western medicine group to learn from you.

Hahaha, you didn’t see the ugly faces on those people’s faces.”

Dean Lu smiled proudly.

Ever since Wang Mengde joined the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he has always been in a good mood.

The field of traditional Chinese medicine not only has people who can hold up the facade, but may even be able to go further.

As time went by, he became more and more certain that Wang Mengde's future achievements would definitely not be inferior to those medical celebrities in history.

“Well, it’s a paper on the treatment of anthrax, a complication of diabetes.

With more than a dozen cases as material and more than a dozen patients currently receiving treatment, it should be no problem to write a few papers.”

Wang Mengde explained.

After the ten severe diabetes patients returned to their country, several more came to China for treatment one after another.

These people were introduced by Mike and others. They were very wealthy. After Wang Mengde examined their conditions, he was also prepared to charge one million yuan for each of them.

In addition, higher authorities in the country found several more severe diabetic patients who also had serious anthrax complications.

"That's right. If your paper is published in a top foreign journal, it will definitely cause a sensation. Maybe you will win the Nobel Prize again in the future."

Dean Lu said with a dreamy look on his face.

Since Wang Mengde won the Nobel Prize a few years ago, no one else in China has achieved this except for his "painkillers" and artificial synthesis of bovine insulin.

Although the "painkillers" and synthetic bovine insulin have a great chance of winning the Nobel Prize, it will probably take a few years for this to happen.

Sunday.

This is the season when grass grows and birds sing.

Wang Mengde rode his bicycle for more than two hours and arrived at the entrance of Tiangezhuang Village.

Now is the time to weed in the fields. The strong laborers are busy working in the fields under the organization of the production team cadres to earn work points, so there are basically only the elderly and children left in the village.

"Come here, crank."

Wang Mengde saw his cousin's youngest son playing with a group of kids not far from the village entrance, so he called out to them loudly.

After my cousin entered the Shahe Meat Processing Factory, he saw the convenience of tractors. It happened that his wife was about to be born, so he gave the unborn child a nickname - Yaoba.

"Uncle, my uncle is here from the capital."

When Yaoba heard Wang Mengde calling him, he quickly left his group of friends and ran over, shouting loudly.

When he got closer, he raised his head with a happy look on his face. "Ya-he, are your old lady and the others at home?"

"Uncle, my old lady and the others have gone to the field to collect manure. I'm going to call them back."

As he said this, he was ready to run along the path towards the fields.

"Wait a minute, I'll give you some candy first."

Wang Mengde called him and took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from his pocket and stuffed them into his clothes pocket.

Suddenly, the two small pockets were bulging.

Fortunately, thanks to the cloth sent by Wang Mengde, he was able to have pockets on his clothes. Otherwise, children from ordinary families would not have pockets sewn on their clothes to save cloth.

"Big White Rabbit?!"

He shook the candy bar with surprise, took out one, peeled it and put it directly into his mouth. Then he folded the candy wrapper and put it in his pocket. Then he covered his pocket with both hands and ran away quickly.

Looking at his receding back, Wang Mengde shook his head with amusement, as if he saw his own childhood self.

At this time.

The group of children nearby also saw him shaking the White Rabbit, and each of them had a greedy look on their face.

Candy is really too rare for them.

Many children may have only heard of or seen it, but have never eaten it.

Seeing the eager looks of the little guys, Wang Mengde waved at them and said, "Come here, I'll give you some candy."

"Let's share the candy!"

"Thank you, cousin."

"Thank you, uncle."

Upon hearing this, the group of children swarmed over and started calling for help in a flurry of chatter.

They were all from the same village, and Wang Mengde came back every now and then, so they all knew each other.

"Come one by one, line up, and don't rush."

One of the boys, wearing 'urea pants', stepped forward and gave orders.

In the late 1960s, in order to vigorously develop agriculture, China specially imported urea from Japan to promote production.

The outer packaging of urea is two layers. The outer packaging is a woven bag, like fine fish scales, and the inner packaging is a layer of nylon cloth lining.

On the outer packaging, some product information such as "Japan", "urea", "nitrogen content", "net weight", etc. will be sprayed mechanically, and will also be printed on the nylon lining at the same time.

Nylon fabric was a luxury fabric at the time and the best fabric except for military uniforms.

Since there was not enough food in that era, less cotton was grown, so the supply of cloth was very limited.

Especially in rural areas, many families cannot buy a new set of clothes for several years.

In some families, several people even share a set of clothes. Whoever needs something can wear it outside, and the rest of the people can only hide in bed.

At this time.

Some clever members came up with the idea of ​​using nylon fabric and took apart the outer packaging of urea to make pants.

It is not only beautiful but also very practical. The key is that it does not require cloth coupons!

But not everyone could own a urea bag at that time.

Anyone who can get a urea packaging bag will feel like winning a 10,000 yuan prize today.

That's because the amount of imported urea is limited, and when the production team goes to buy urea, they only buy a few kilograms or a dozen kilograms in small quantities.

In this case, the supply and marketing cooperative store will definitely not provide bags, but will secretly save the outer packaging.

Then they sell them for a few cents each, and usually to acquaintances. If you are not familiar with the products, they cannot buy them even if they want.

Later, the news gradually spread, and some cadres and staff of the supply and marketing cooperatives would "internally distribute" these outer packaging bags in advance.

After all, every family has some relatives and friends, and this kind of material that is in great demand is a good thing to do as a favor.

After sewing the nylon fabric into pants, the next step is to dye it into the "mainstream color" of the era, black or blue.

It also has another purpose, which is to cover the words sprayed on the nylon cloth.

After dyeing it, when you wear it out, it is not only soft and comfortable, but also looks elegant and chic, and your whole temperament changes.

But this kind of "urea pants" is not without disadvantages. Because it is dyed by itself, it is easy to fade.

After a few washes, the writing on the nylon cloth will show through.

This caused some jokes.

For example, a pair of nylon pants has the word "Japan" in the front, "urea" in the back, and words in the middle such as net weight 40 kilograms, nitrogen content 46%, etc.

Of course, everyone was very poor at that time and it was good enough to have a pair of pants to wear.

Surrounded by a group of children, Wang Mengde came to the old man's house.

The yard door was not locked, so he pushed it open and went into the yard to wait.

About ten minutes later, Wang Jinghui and Wang Tianshi were seen returning, one carrying a dung basket and the other carrying a bamboo basket, accompanied by a crank.

"Grandpa, grandma, you are so old, why do you still go to the fields in person?"

Wang Mengde stepped forward and took the bamboo basket off Wang Tian's shoulder, while complaining.

"Haha, although we are old, we are still strong.

Besides, if we really have to stay at home all day, we will not be able to do anything idle. It is better to go out and move around.”

Wang Tian looked at him kindly and said softly:

"By the way, when your uncle comes back later, I'll ask him to pick some more Chinese toon behind the house. When you go back, bring some for Shengnan to taste."

Every spring, she would save some elm seeds or toon seeds and wait for Wang Mengde to come and take them back.

"Okay, Shengnan and the other kids love scrambled eggs with Chinese toon the most."

Wang Mengde helped her sit on a chair in the yard, then said with a smile.

"Alas, there aren't many Chinese toon buds growing on the Chinese toon tree behind our house this year. I guess they won't be enough for them to eat.

So, I can borrow some from my neighbors, or at most give them a few pounds of corn flour, and they will definitely be happy with it.”

As Wang Tian said this, she prepared to get up and walk out.

Seeing her impetuous temper, Wang Mengde said hurriedly:

"Grandma, don't worry, wait until Grandpa comes back."

night.

The dinner table.

In addition to several other dishes, the most eye-catching one is the large plate of scrambled eggs with Chinese toon.

After Wang Hao started eating, He Shengnan and several children, including Wang Mengde, all reached for the dish.

The delicious meat dishes on the table became "Mrs. Niu".
