Volume 1: A sound on Wall Street, Xinxiang City is busy copying books Chapter 169: Five-leaf Peel
Subtitle of this chapter: Super Powerful WU JIA PI
"You Orientals waste your time on this kind of thing, which is why you lag so far behind us Westerners!"
No wonder there are so many authors who criticize Edison and support Tesla. This old guy is really annoying!
In fact, Edison's "poisonous tongue" is also well-known in history. For example, he said that the alternating current invented by Tesla was only suitable for powering the electric chair to execute criminals.
Another time, a high-pitched lady complained to him about the poor sound quality of the phonograph she bought. He immediately replied that no matter how bad the phonograph sounded, it was still better .
This guy didn't get beaten to death, so he's a very strong person.
And what he said really hit Yuan Yanshu’s biggest pain point.
Our Master Yuan has only been here for more than two months, so he has not yet integrated into this era... Well, even if someone like him stays in this timeline for twenty or thirty years, it is unlikely that he will consider himself a Chinese of the same generation.
But Yuan Hongjian is indeed a little pink who loves the party and the country a hundred years later. Although the little pinks are often slapped in the face by the party and the country that "protects green grass but not red flowers", they love the party and the country deeply. After being slapped in the face, they will wipe off everything and sleep with you... Well, it should be wipe away tears and don't be afraid, at least they still have the stars and the sea.
Not only that, this time traveler was even more arrogant than Edison. Although he suffered a little loss at the hands of the anarchists and BOI in the past two months, his foresight and "talent" made him invincible, and every time he showed off, he was extremely successful. This made him feel even more superior, even a little self-inflated, coming from a hundred years later.
However, this sentence woke Yuan Yanshu up. He was not a citizen of the second largest country in the world in the future, but a weak country and a weak chicken in the sick man of East Asia.
If a hundred years later a white American told him that his country was backward because he had no faith, because he was an inferior race, and so on, he would be so dismissive that he would not even bother to argue. He must be a white trash who reads junk news. But now...
Yuan Yan's face suddenly turned green, and she was about to retort...
Fortunately, the "good guy" Mr. George Baker came out to smooth things over. He was not slow to react, and before Master Yuan could say anything, he asked loudly, "Neo, what kind of wine did you drink in the hospital?"
Well, we have to give face to this old man. We will confront that stingy, vicious and despicable capitalist when we have the chance in the future.
Yuan Yan took a deep breath to suppress her anger, and then replied: "Mr. Baker, what I drink is... called WU JIA PI."
"WU JIA PI?"
Thomas Edison still had an expression of noncommittal on his face, and the other three unconsciously repeated this strange pronunciation.
Louis Baker and Yuan Yanshu were now close friends, so he said in a familiar, half-complaining tone: "Neo, this is your fault. In addition to the 'Majhong', you should have brought a few bottles of medicinal wine for us to try."
Our Master Yuan thought to himself, he hasn't yet agreed on the endorsement fee with his fellow Seris "fellows", otherwise he would definitely bring a few bottles over.
At this point, all we can do is fool people.
He shook his head and said, "Louis, you don't understand this. The Wu Jia Pi I drink is different from the Wu Jia Pi bought in Chinatown..."
"The WU JIA PI I drink is made from dozens of precious medicinal materials using our traditional craftsmanship. It does not contain any artificial additives, has a 'unique' taste and a 'touching' aroma. It can replenish qi, strengthen muscles and bones, and strengthen the will. Taking it regularly can improve the body's immunity and enhance..."
Wait, why does this sound like an advertisement?
Yes, I am advertising!
Of course, whether it is valuable or not depends on whether your fellow Seris "fellows" are sensible.
Because... only the Acanthopanax pilosula designated by me can be called "WU JIA PI"!
"Enhancement... Anyway, you can't buy it even if you spend a lot of money. And even if you drink it, it may not have the same effect as mine."
Even Theodore Edison couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why can't you be like Mr. Yuan after drinking it? Is it because this kind of wine is only suitable for you Chinese?"
Of course it’s because you don’t have a physical fitness of 18 points.
"Gentlemen, this question is very complicated." Our Master Yuan said very sincerely: "I will try my best to explain it to you."
He glanced at the great inventor with a cold expression and said, "This has to do with the 'harmony' I just mentioned."
"Although I didn't study medicine, I still know a little bit about your Western medicine. In the middle of the last century, Mr. Virchow proposed the theory of cell pathology, which means that in the pathological process, certain cells rather than the entire organ are diseased."
"But why do these cells become diseased? Of course there could be many reasons. But we Chinese believe that cells cannot exist independently of the human body. The reason why cells in a certain organ become diseased is that the entire human body is not 'harmonious' enough."
"So according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, even if the focus of the disease is cured, the cause of the disease cannot be solved. To restore the patient to health, or to keep a healthy person in the best condition, we must start from the root cause."
"That's why we Chinese call medicine 'WEI SHENG'."
"What is hygiene? It means keeping healthy before you treat it! "
Master Yuan looked at the confused faces of those present and decided to share his own experience.
He pointed at his face and said, "Why was I able to overcome sepsis and heal my wounds so quickly? It's all because of the word 'nourish'!"
"The reason why the medicinal wine I drink seems so magical is that it is specially prepared according to my physical condition. And it is because I insist on taking this special medicinal wine that I have such a strong immunity."
"This is what we Chinese call treating the disease with the right medicine!"
Yuan Yan suddenly thought, since we have come to this point, let's just fulfill Mr. George Baker's wish. Not only did he give him tens of thousands of dollars in shares, but he was also very interested in this company.
"So, Mr. Baker, I don't recommend taking this medicinal wine directly. Like I said, it works differently on everyone. If you are really interested in our Chinese medicine, I can recommend a Chinese doctor to you. He will prepare targeted medicinal wine or other tonics for you based on your condition."
Mr. George Baker invited him to play white ball here, probably for this reason. So when he heard this, he nodded happily. Just as he was about to open his mouth to thank him, he heard Mr. Thomas Edison on the side sneer.
He advised: "George, I think we should just forget it."
