Chapter 5 Tongrentang
"Doctors are like this. They forget everything when they are busy."
In the doctor's cafeteria of Union Medical College Hospital, a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties sat opposite the late dialect mother and son, smiling at the two of them.
This is Aunt Wang Huiyuan, who wanted to meet Fang Yan in person before introducing the job. My mother, He Huiru, had made an agreement with this good friend before Fang Yan came back.
Arrange work when dialect comes back. Nowadays, there are many educated youths returning to the city, and the number of jobs is getting less and less every day. If you want to find a good job, you must seize the time and plan.
So less than 24 hours after Fang Yan came back, work arrangements had already begun.
Aunt Wang didn't know what unit she was from, but she said that she could arrange for Fang Yan to work as a pharmacist at Tongrentang. There was no such thing as a licensed pharmacist qualification certificate these days.
The only requirements for the medicine collectors are to be able to read and use a scale.
Tongrentang has returned to China after the public-private partnership. On weekdays, there are still some traditional Chinese medicine doctors sitting in the hall to check the patient's pulse and tongue and prescribe Chinese medicine.
The most important thing is that these traditional Chinese medicine doctors only look at the morning time, because taking pulse in the morning is mainly because the accuracy of taking pulse in the morning is higher.
Because when you first wake up in the morning, the qi and blood in your blood vessels are still relatively full, it may be disturbed by exercise and eating in the afternoon, causing changes in pulse and tongue conditions.
Diagnosis in the afternoon is inaccurate and irresponsible to the patient. Therefore, these old Chinese medicine doctors see half a day in the morning and take a break in the afternoon. Even the people responsible for taking medicine will take turns to take breaks. Why are there shifts? Because there are other people who come to take medicine in the afternoon with prescriptions.
This job is really great for Fang Yan. Not only can I have time to review and read books, but I can also connect with my major. Most importantly, I can see how the old Chinese doctors of this era treat diseases.
Watching for half a day in the morning, before Dialect time traveled, it seemed that it could only be the privilege of experienced experts. Others had to receive the patients no matter what time they came. The first was so that the patients could receive timely diagnosis and treatment, and the second was also for the sake of the hospital. benefit.
In the future, everything will depend on money, otherwise there will be no Western pharmaceutical companies buying up some prescriptions and hiding them, and they will not be allowed to circulate on the market.
"This job is indeed not bad. It also provides dormitories. Although it is a bit small, it does have its own house to live in. When the other members of your family come back, there will be no room for us at home." Aunt Wang said with a smile.
Only then did Fang Yan realize that he could actually live in a dormitory.
Aunt Wang continued:
"Actually, it's not impossible if you want to live in a larger dormitory. There is a pharmaceutical factory over there in Tong Ren Tang, and the factory's buildings are bigger, even if they are a little far away. Anyway, I can arrange for you to discuss it."
Before Fang Yan could answer, his mother took the lead and said:
"It's better to choose a drugstore. Even if the drugstore is located too far away, the drugstore you choose shouldn't come back only once a month?"
Aunt Wang nodded:
"This is the same. The drugstore is not too far from your home in Dashilan, and it is even closer to here. You two can go back together after get off work, and the road is much safer."
After that she said:
"Oh, more and more educated youth are returning to the city now. It's hard to find jobs. Those without jobs wander around. Now that I go home a little late, I feel uneasy, for fear of encountering someone."
"Isn't that right? You're okay. We live in the countryside over in Haidian. It was really scary walking along the way." The old lady took over the conversation and started chatting with her.
In just one lunch time, they simply solved the work problems that the educated youths who came back could not solve.
After dinner, Fang Yan followed Aunt Wang to the Tongrentang store in Dashilan. I simply filled out a form here and went through the onboarding process, and then they told me that I could come to work the next day.
The salary is thirty-eight yuan a month. On weekdays, I work in the morning, and several people take turns to take shifts in the afternoon. One person can take turns to be on duty in the afternoon twice a week.
The work can be said to be quite easy, and among the people who work here, Fang Yan found that there are only two others who are slightly older, and six or seven of them are young people who are almost the same as him. In other words, they are all returning to the city. Educated youth.
It seemed that he was not the only one who used the back door.
It’s hard to find a job now, let alone find a good employer.
Then he took him to a nearby alley. A single room that was vacant in the courtyard here was Fang Yan's dormitory.
There are no toilets or kitchens in this place. Anyone who comes has to go to the alley public toilet to empty the bucket. It is completely incomparable with the house in Dad's school. Fang Yan also knows what this kind of house is like.
After looking at the house and getting the key, Fang Yan returned to Tongrentang and sat for a while at the Chinese medicine doctor's consultation table. In fact, he wanted to see if there were any medical records left behind.
It turned out that the cabinets were all locked and these important things were not left outside.
Who to guard against?
Dialect is speechless.
But when I come here tomorrow, I should be able to see the contents if I take a look at it.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Before leaving, Yan Yan prescribed a pair of Chinese medicine for himself according to the prescriptions he knew, so that he could go back and recuperate his body. The original owner had been in the countryside for several years, and he had a lot of ailments left on his body. When he looked in the mirror in the morning, he found that he was white. My hair is much better, but these things need to be adjusted slowly to come back.
After finishing the arrangements, Aunt Wang went back to her unit. When she left, she told Fang Yan that he could tell his family anything he encountered here and that if he could help solve it, he would definitely help solve it.
Listening to this tone, Fang Yan had reason to suspect that this person should be a big boss from the health department.
After solving the work problem, Fang Yan went to tell his mother, and then went to Xinhua Bookstore in Dongcheng District.
When he went out this morning, he took a look and found no high school textbooks at home, so he decided to buy some himself.
In addition to the 5 yuan given by his parents today, he also has some with him, which were saved by the original owner when he went to the countryside. Although it is not much, it is enough to buy teaching materials.
But when I arrived at the Xinhua Bookstore, something unexpected happened to Fang Yan. There were no high school textbooks here at all. High school had been discontinued for many years, and there were no books on the shelves. Only then did Fang Yan remember that the books sold in the bookstore were all of the current generation. There are really no books or textbooks here.
Finally, I used the money to buy several Chinese medicine books: "Su Wen", "A and B", "Yellow Emperor's Acupuncture Classic", "Compendium of Materia Medica", and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", and spent a total of more than one yuan.
As for finding textbooks, you really have to ask your father at home.
I guess there should be some in their school.
After returning home, Fang Yan started taking Chinese medicine. Anyway, today he solved the problem at work, which also solved a problem that worried his parents.
Just when he was preparing the medicine in several batches, the long-lost system prompt suddenly rang in his mind again!
