Chapter 236 Technical Activity
Well, yes, since the health centers already have official Chinese medicine doctors, isn’t it reasonable to add a Chinese medicine cabinet?
A good cook cannot cook without rice, especially a Chinese medicine doctor.

Of course, this has nothing to do with whether I, Old Yang, prescribe or boil medicine. Don’t the vast majority of worker comrades need it?

Even I, who often take Liuwei Dihuang Pills, can tell the pulse. Especially the look in Wang Deming's eyes just now when he was hesitant to speak, he must have known that I was ill.
"Comrade Yin Mei, Comrade De Ming's suggestion is very good. Since our clinic has received elite soldiers, we must also equip it with complete weapons and equipment. Comrade De Ming, please write a report later. What does the clinic need? Please sort it out and submit it."

"Comrade Yin Mei, please help me go through the process and have the Finance Department allocate funds immediately and have the Supply and Marketing Department make the purchases."

"Okay, Director Yang, I will instruct Comrade Wang Deming on how to submit the application later."

Wang Deming smiled unconsciously, and he became more enthusiastic. "Come on, Director Yang, lie down. I'll check Xiaomei for you. Bring the safflower oil over, and I'll give it to Director Yang."

Wang Deming poured a little safflower oil into the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands together to warm them up, and gradually applied force starting from below the still purple and swollen part.

While performing the massage, Wang Deming said, "Director Yang, you are lucky that your injury was in this location. If it was a little lower, your knee would be in danger."

"Judging from the extent of your thigh injury, the iron block that hit you must be quite heavy, Director Yang. I treated a comrade in our factory for a broken leg before. Is this a common case?"

Director Yang was so depressed that he gritted his teeth and said, "Hiss, how can it be not more?"

"Our main product is wire rods, which are in short supply. Steel is needed everywhere in Beijing. However, the rough steel that Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant can allocate to us is limited. We can only collect scrap iron from everywhere and start refining again."

"If we carry too much, we'll be more likely to get hurt."

Wang Deming's eyes turned and he had an idea. He frowned and asked in confusion, "That's not right. How can such a large factory like ours not have labor protection?"

"What labor protection?" Director Yang was stunned and forgot the temporary pain.

"The most basic things are gloves, clothes, towels, shoes, soap, thermos, salt water, etc. If our comrades are often injured while carrying heavy objects, can we add a small railroad track at the freight station? It will be convenient for the raw materials to be processed in the factory, and also for the transportation of our products."

"Also, when moving heavy objects, you can use a tractor."

Both Director Yang and Yin Mei were shocked by Wang Deming's bizarre idea. After looking at each other, Director Yang asked, "Both the locomotive and the tractor need to be purchased with foreign exchange, right?"

"Our factory has no foreign exchange!"

"Our factory doesn't have it, but does Boss Lou from Lou Bancheng have it too?" Wang Deming blinked. "Boss Lou is one of the major shareholders of this factory. He has responsibilities for the development of the factory and the labor protection of the workers."

"We are a new socialist China. The working class is in a leading position. Labor protection for our workers must be the top priority, right?"

“.” Will this work?

But what Wang Deming said makes sense. In our new China, workers and farmers are the masters of the country. However, when it comes to foreign exchange for purchasing locomotives and tractors, we have to discuss it with Lou Bancheng privately first. "Bang!"

"Okay, Director Yang, do you feel much better? I also cleared the meridians in your legs. Do you feel the soles of your feet are warm?"

Director Yang moved his toes and it seemed that he actually felt a little warm.

Especially the heat extended from the soles of the feet to the lower back, making the lower back hot as well. This discovery made him very happy. He really felt like he had been given a treasure!
Yin Mei and Jiang Xiaomei helped Director Yang put on his cotton trousers, then helped him get out of bed and put on his crutches.

Director Yang took two tentative steps, his face showing joy. The effect of this massage was particularly good. "Comrade Deming, your technique is better than what I experienced at the Dongsi Clinic!"

Wang Deming replied tactfully, "That's because Director Yang has good physical fitness, like a young man in his twenties or thirties, and recovers quickly."

"Haha. No, age is not forgiving. Well, Comrade Deming, please list all the materials needed for sanitation. After I sign, I will ask Comrade Yin Mei to help you apply for it from the Finance Department."

"Okay, Director Yang."

After washing his hands, Wang Deming tore off a piece of letter paper with the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill letterhead and began to list them one by one.

Chinese medicine cabinets are indispensable, at least three; acupuncture and cupping sets are also needed; there are also various necessary Chinese medicine plants, ginseng, deer antler, musk and so on, which will be put on hold for now; but the commonly used medicinal materials: rhubarb, cinnamon twig, poria cocos, Sichuan fritillary. Get a pound of all of them first.

Now that we have traditional Chinese medicine, can we use less Western medicine?

With so few medicines available in the clinic now, what should we do if we encounter an emergency?
You need a box of penicillin, right? Not much, just 1200 million units; these days a bottle of penicillin is only 5 units per small bottle, in the past a small bottle was 800 million units
A set of surgical instruments is also needed. I should say that I can also do suture. No, I should say that I can do general surgeries.

If any comrades have external injuries, I can treat them directly, or transfer them to other hospitals after preliminary treatment, which will greatly save the lives of comrades.

Now that we have the surgical instruments, we also need a set of operating beds, yes, and a few sets of surgical gowns, and a nurse.

By the way, I also need an X-ray machine. Although I can feel the fractured bones and reposition them, an X-ray machine can more accurately determine the fracture site, right?
As for the blood pressure monitor, electrocardiogram, urine test analyzer, and blood test analyzer, all of them should be written down.
Wang Deming looked at the paper filled with his own writing and gently dusted it with the back of his hand. People should still have dreams. What if they come true?
When Yin Mei and Jiang Xiaomei stood together and looked at the list, the two women's mouths, which could swallow a duck egg in one gulp, never closed.
After a long while, Yin Mei looked at Wang Deming woodenly, then slowly turned to Jiang Xiaomei and asked in a low voice: "Xiaomei, our clinic is short of so many things?"

Jiang Xiaomei also looked at Wang Deming. Is this enough to open a small hospital?

However, although Wang Deming was a ruthless person, he did manage to equip the clinic with all the supplies, and his status also rose rapidly.

After swallowing her saliva, Jiang Xiaomei nodded with difficulty and said firmly: "Section Chief Yin Mei, we really need someone!"

"Are you crazy? Are you going to open a hospital? We are a factory clinic, not a hospital!"

The spit of Chief Tan from the Finance Department was about to spray on Yin Mei's face.
