Chapter 2595: Another Medicine

After staying in Yangjiazhuang for two days, Yang Xiaotao returned to Sijiucheng.

Afterwards, I visited the former president of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and then went to the First Ministry of Machine Building to chat with Mr. Xia for half the afternoon.

Finally, we arrived at Mr. Chen’s residence in the evening.

The military family compound where Mr. Chen lived was not far from the West Garden. When Yang Xiaotao passed by, he saw Tong Xiaolong standing at the door. The two of them just greeted each other and didn't say much.

After registering at the gate, Yang Xiaotao was led by the staff to his doorstep.

bang bang
Yang Xiaotao knocked on the door and a crisp sound came from the room.

Yang Xiaotao pushed the door open and went in.

"Hello, Auntie. I'm Yang Xiaotao, and I'm here to see Mr. Chen."

An old lady opened the door and smiled when she saw Yang Xiaotao.

Apparently, the doorman had called ahead.

"Comrade Xiao Tao, come in quickly. I often hear Lao Chen talking about you."

"Why are you still carrying things? Take them back later."

When Yang Xiaotao walked in, the old woman noticed the fruit in his hand and quickly refused.

"Auntie, don't worry. I know what Mr. Chen asked. But these are all grown by ourselves. It's free. I'll give them to you two to try."

Seeing Yang Xiaotao say this, the old woman had no choice but to nod.

"Old Chen is in his office, you can just go over there."

"Stay home for dinner tonight."

Yang Xiaotao quickly refused after hearing this, "No, no, please don't bother me, Auntie."

The old woman waved her hand, "It's no trouble. Everyone has to eat, right?"

After saying this, the old woman went out with her basket.

Yang Xiaotao straightened his clothes and knocked on the office door.

"come in."

Hearing the sound, Yang Xiaotao pushed the door open and walked in.

I saw Mr. Chen holding a magnifying glass and looking down at the documents on the table.

"Chief."

When Yang Xiaotao walked in, Mr. Chen just looked up and greeted him.

Seeing that it was Yang Xiaotao, Chen Lao smiled and asked, "How come you, a busy man, have time to come here?"

Yang Xiaotao stood up and hurried forward, "Commander, no matter how busy I am, I have to come to see you. Besides, I'm not that busy."

"I don't need you to see me, you don't come to me for no reason."

Old Chen smiled and the two sat down again.

"Why, did you run into trouble this time? Do you want someone or money?"

Old Chen poured a glass of water for Yang Xiaotao and started jokingly.

But Yang Xiaotao shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, I came here to report my work to you."

"Reporting?"

Old Chen looked Yang Xiaotao up and down and said, "You have to come to my house to report your work. You must have something wrong."

"Speak quickly."

"okay."

Yang Xiaotao immediately expressed his idea of ​​paving roads in the suburbs.

"Mr. Chen, now the urban areas have cement roads, but the suburbs, especially those connected to the countryside, are still dirt roads."

"It's not so bad in normal times, but if it's windy and rainy, it's really a torture for people on the road."

"Moreover, the development of industry in our city cannot be separated from the support of the countryside."

"These grains, vegetables, fruits and so on, are all sent from the countryside."

"Once the road is repaired, it will definitely speed up urban and rural construction, which will also help the country's economic development."

Yang Xiaotao stated his purpose, and Mr. Chen sat in the chair, thinking about something.

After a long while, he shook his head and sighed, "In principle, I have no objection to this matter."

"But I can't support it obviously, you know."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "I understand."

"Well, the main construction direction in the country is now railways. The investment in this is too huge. Now if we want to build roads, we can only let local departments solve it on their own."

Elder Chen leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "Speaking of which, it's still because the infrastructure is not comprehensive. Otherwise, there would be no need to worry about it so much."

"How are you going to fix it?"

"Before I came here, I had already told President Deng of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Ministry of First Machinery Industry about this matter. They all agreed very much and were willing to help."

Yang Xiaotao told Mr. Chen about the work he had done previously, and Mr. Chen nodded with satisfaction.

This is someone who comes with solutions to problems, and it is easy to use such people.

Unlike those guys who just throw problems at him, it’s a headache.

"In this case, I will issue a document to the relevant departments and ask them to cooperate with you."

"But if you want to do it, do it well and don't leave any room for criticism."

Yang Xiaotao stood up immediately and said, "Don't worry, Commander. We will definitely repair the road."

"Sit down."

Yang Xiaotao sat down again, and Mr. Chen asked casually, "I've been very busy recently, how are you doing now?"

"I heard that you went down there to look for someone a few days ago? Did Old Qian from the Second Ministry of Machine Building go there?"

Yang Xiaotao smiled after hearing this, and then told him about Fang Ziqiang and Fang Hanmei.

No need for rhetoric, just tell the truth.

Mr. Chen has his own judgment.

"You did a good job on this."

Mr. Chen praised him, and then said, "You are lucky to have found such an outstanding talent."

Now Yang Xiaotao smiled proudly.

"So, your new machine tool project is going to be launched?"

"Yes, we are making CNC machine tools this time, and the project has been confirmed."

"Are you sure?"

"Have."

After hearing this, Mr. Chen smiled and took out two unopened boxes of cigarettes from the drawer. Yang Xiaotao took them immediately after seeing them.

"By the way, I heard you guys are preparing for something, a technical college? What's going on?"

Old Chen asked again. Yang Xiaotao put the cigarette in his pocket and then explained, "Commander, this was also inspired by the machine tool incident."

"You also know that our current eighth-level master is taking his time to train his apprentices, but overall, it takes too long for someone who can really show off his skills."

"We feel that over time, there may not be many people who can learn the skills."

"So you're thinking about training professional talents?"

Mr. Chen continued, and Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately, "Yes, that's what we mean."

"For example, if he is a driller, let him practice the driller's technique. Let him practice a processing technique. After a long time, unless he refuses to do it, he will practice day and night. Practice makes perfect, and he will definitely be able to do the job well in the end."

While listening to Yang Xiaotao's explanation, Mr. Chen nodded silently.

This special development approach can indeed solve the shortage of talent in the future.

Although doing so may stifle some talent, it is beneficial overall.

At the same time, he also understood that the only ones who could do this were Yang Xiaotao and his nine divisions.

It’s not that other departments can’t do it, but that there’s no need to do it.

Because they have enough people.

"So, I have to look forward to the emergence of new machine tools?"

Chen Lao joked, and Yang Xiaotao smiled, "Just wait for good news."

"Well, then, wait."

The two talked in the office for a while, and then there was a knock on the door.

"Come out to eat, or the food will get cold."

After hearing this, Mr. Chen stood up and said, "Let's go eat."

Yang Xiaotao followed behind.

"Auntie, thank you for your help."

"What is this child talking about? Otherwise, we old couple also need to eat."

The old woman smiled and asked Yang Xiaotao to wash his hands, and then placed the chopsticks.

"Eat something simple and see if it suits your taste." Mr. Chen said as Yang Xiaotao sat down. Yang Xiaotao thanked him quickly and picked up his chopsticks to eat.

There was a plate of frozen tofu, a plate of stir-fried Chinese cabbage, a plate of pork with shredded potatoes, and a bowl of rice on the table.

It's that simple.

"It's delicious. This frozen tofu is delicious."

After the meal, Yang Xiaotao praised the old lady's cooking skills again. It was not that he was deliberately complimenting her, but from the perspective of an eighth-level chef, he thought the dish was indeed delicious.

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's praise, Old Chen said with a smile, "This is what you said, practice makes perfect, the oil seller."

The old woman also smiled when she heard this, and then went on to chat about her daily life.

It was not until nine o'clock that Yang Xiaotao got up and said goodbye.

The two of them walked Yang Xiaotao to the door and watched him get into the car before returning to the house.

“This kid is pretty solid.”

The old woman suddenly spoke, and Chen Lao paused, then smiled and said, "You are so honest, you even ate a whole bowl of rice."

Hearing this, the old lady rolled her eyes and said, "Look at how stingy you are."

Old Chen raised his eyebrows, "Am I being stingy? I'm being frugal. Frugal means saving and moderation."

"When this product comes into our hands, it seems easy to make. But who has ever thought about how many processes it has gone through?"

"How much resources and energy does it use? How much effort does it take for workers to put in? If we can all save a little bit here and there, it will also support national construction."

Seeing that the boss was getting excited again, the old woman went straight into the house.

"You are so capable, why don't you build a few more roads so that the supplies can take fewer detours?"

patter
The door closed, Mr. Chen opened his mouth, then snorted coldly and went back to the office.

Yang Xiaotao visited the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the First Ministry of Machine Building, and finally made a report to Mr. Chen.

Afterwards, the issue of road construction was put on the agenda.

Of course, in the end, the First Ministry of Machine Building, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Ninth Ministry were all willing to help with the funds for road construction.

In this way, the resolution was successfully passed.

By the time the resolution was delegated, it was already mid-May.

When Yang Xiaotao told Yang Dazhuang about the situation, he started to organize people and repair the road after they were done.

Boom~~
A dull thunder rumbled, and Yang Xiaotao stood in front of the office window, feeling the approaching dark clouds.

Lou Xiao'e and Liu Lixue were busy sorting out documents when they heard the sound of raindrops outside the window.

Yang Xiaotao turned around and asked, "Xiaoxue, is there any news from the Ninth Hospital?"

Picking up the teacup, Yang Xiaotao took a sip of tea.

At this moment, the rain fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

Liu Lixue shook her head. "Director Yang, there is no news from the hospital yet, but the data accumulated in the early stages show that the experiment is progressing smoothly."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao just lowered his head and drank water, still feeling a little uneasy.

"If you have any news, tell me as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

After Liu Lixue finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao put down the cup and went out to the research institute.

The CNC machine tool project has been launched and he is very busy now.

The Ninth People's Hospital.

Outside the ward, Ji Xiang and a group of doctors stood in front of the observation window, looking at the person on the bed inside with serious expressions.

Standing beside him were Xu Yuanshan, Bai Jingshu and Zhu Ziqing.

Behind them were relevant personnel from chemical plants, pharmaceutical factories and research institutes.

These people stood there without making any sound, but instead felt indescribably nervous.

This situation has been going on for several days.

After the drug was synthesized in the Biochemical Research Institute, it entered clinical trials.

During this period, the pharmacology of the drug has been determined through research on mice, proving that the developed drug is effective for various inflammations, has no obvious side effects, and basically all mice can survive.

Human clinical trials are now underway.

These people all volunteered to be volunteers.

A large number of them are personnel from the research institute, and the rest are activists selected from various factories.

There are a total of one hundred people, scattered in more than twenty wards.

In the ward in front of Ji Xiang, the doctor and nurse were doing the final check-up.

"Dean Ji, this should be the last time."

Xu Yuanshan held a cigarette in his hand but did not dare to light it.

There was a 'No Smoking' sign on the warning board next to him, so he didn't dare to smoke openly in front of the dean.

Ji Xiang glanced at the information in her hand, flipped through it for a while, and then smiled and said, "If there are no problems and no abnormalities this time, I will sign this!"

"Great."

Xu Yuanshan answered with a smile. Not only him, but also Bai Jingshu and Zhu Ziqing were full of expectations.

They waited too long.

Bai Jingshu walked up to Ji Xiang and became close to her after they got to know each other because of their work relationship.

"Sister Bai, don't worry. As long as there is no problem with the medicinal materials, your pharmaceutical factory will have one more hen that lays golden eggs."

Hearing Ji Xiang say this, Bai Jingshu's calm face also showed a hint of excitement, and then he hid it in his heart, "It's all thanks to the research institute and the chemical plant. We are just joining in the fun."

Ji Xiang smiled when she heard that, but in her heart she was extremely proud of her original decision.

Although the Ninth Hospital was established not long ago, it has demonstrated a lot of heritage.

Just like the medicines we have now, we have seen products produced by many pharmaceutical companies before.

All these have brought fame to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory. Nowadays, when people buy "Palace Jade Liquor" abroad, they recognize the Red Star brand.

Now, another good medicine is about to be launched, and it is a Western medicine that can cure diseases and reduce inflammation.

You can imagine the sensation his son caused.

She could foresee that with the help of this medicine, the position of the Ninth Ministry would become more and more stable in the future.

Of course, the pharmaceutical factories and hospitals in Ministry Nine will also benefit.

While everyone was talking, the door of the ward opened and an attending physician came out with a notebook in his hand.

"Dean, after careful observation and research, the new drug has shown good results in the bodies of one hundred test subjects."

"It is effective in treating inflammation caused by infection."

"According to observation, the fastest person recovered in just one day."

"So far, there has been no discomfort. Of course, we will continue to observe."

After the attending physician finished speaking, Ji Xiang took the information and read it carefully again, then smiled and said to Bai Jing beside her, "Old Bai, congratulations."

As soon as the words fell, Bai Jingshu, Xu Yuanshan and others immediately raised their arms and cheered.

The crowd who had been watching this place from afar immediately became happy after receiving the positive news.

"Dean Ji, thank you, thank you so much."

Bai Jingshu expressed his gratitude, and Xu Yuanshan on the side ran to the office to tell Yang Xiaotao the good news.

Zhu Ziqing walked to the window and pushed it open with force. The rain was pouring down with a constant rumble, but he felt extremely happy.

Nine.

Just as Yang Xiaotao was listening to Lu Tao's design ideas for the CNC machine tool, there was a quick knock on the door.

Everyone stood up and opened the door. Liu Lixue walked in with her trouser legs rolled up, and many parts of her body were wet from the rain.

But the smile on his face could not be hidden even by the rain.

"Director Yang, Director Xu just called and said they succeeded."

After Liu Lixue finished speaking, the research institute fell silent.

A flash of lightning flashed.

Then came the rumbling sound.

The next second, Chang Mingjie clapped loudly, and then the entire institute applauded.

After a long time, Yang Xiaotao asked about the relevant matters. After confirming, he left the institute with Liu Lixue.

After returning to the Ninth Department Office, Yang Xiaotao thought about it and decided to call Mr. Chen.

The phone went around twice and finally reached Mr. Chen's office, and soon Mr. Chen answered the phone.

"Commander, good afternoon. I am Yang Xiaotao."

"Yes, I know. Let's talk about it quickly."

Mr. Chen still had a few documents to review and had no time to argue with Yang Xiaotao.

"Commander, we have developed a new type of anti-inflammatory drug."
