Chapter 576 Ginseng Planting

The two sides signed an agreement, which was not made public at the strong request of Japan. East Africa is very clear about the Japanese thoughts, that is, they are evil-minded. However, as long as East Africa manages the Southern Ryukyu Islands well, Japan will have to pay the price if it wants to take them away again. .

 Province of Hohenzollern.

Although East Africa is reluctant to develop the pharmaceutical industry, it still tries its best to develop traditional Chinese medicine based on its own characteristics and advantages, or to reduce the cost of traditional Chinese medicine treatment.

This is a topic about free prostitution. The West pays attention to patents, but the Far East does not have this statement. Of course, we cannot say that the doctors in the Far East are generous. Many of these skills are spread through families and apprenticeships. In fact, it is quite selfish, and There is a risk of being lost. Of course, it is understandable. After all, it is the craft of eating.

Furthermore, the Far East may not attach much importance to the development of medicine. This can be seen from the social status. Doctors and lawyers were very important professions in the United States in the previous life, but both of them were money-hungry industries.

Medicine in the 19th century was based on the idea that one's destiny is determined by one's own destiny. Ernst could not be reassured by its efficacy, so he paid great attention to health issues and tried to reduce the risk of illness.

 At present, East African medicine and modern medicine need to be driven by a founder-like existence, or a complete system can form spontaneously, or it can be promoted by advanced equipment and new methods, and East Africa does not have the above three conditions.

 While the traditional Chinese medicine system is relatively mature, breakthroughs in new Chinese medicine cannot be accomplished in a day or two, nor can it have any significant impact on the current medical system in East Africa.

 Hence, East Africa can only vigorously develop the cultivation of medicinal materials based on traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. No matter which ancient medical system it is, it is inseparable from the support of medicinal materials. This is also the case in East Africa now.

In this era, Europeans and Americans have no interest in Chinese medicine, so they also directly demonize Chinese medicine. Japan is on the road of "leaving Asia and joining Europe", so no one except East Africa has a bad idea about Chinese medicine. The Far Eastern Empire now has no regard for this aspect. It’s also paralyzing.

  After all, Europe and the United States look down upon it, so much so that they themselves have some doubts about their own traditional industries. Many formal Chinese medicine practitioners are increasingly being questioned.

 As for the free use of Chinese herbal medicine, although there is no patent in the Far East, growing Chinese herbal medicine is a technical activity, and most of the Chinese herbal medicine needs to be imported from East Africa from the Far East.

Chinese herbal medicine is mainly based on grass. Although East Africa has a tropical grassland climate and there are many types of grass, the level of development of medicinal herbs by Africans is very low.

Therefore, the native medicinal herbs of East Africa mainly use the original Arab medicine in Africa as the entry point, inheriting and absorbing the medical traditions of the Swahili people and the Arabs on the southern edge of the northern Sahara Desert.

Black people actually have their own witch doctor system, but the black power that has been completely controlled by East Africa has naturally declared its witch doctor system extinct. Although black people exist, African witch doctors are different. Even the most backward Africa still has knowledge barriers. .

Before the colonization of East Africa, the original black power in East Africa was not very developed. The same was naturally true for medicine, and it had to be tied to the theory of ghosts and gods.

This makes the treatment of diseases a metaphysical issue. If the disease is cured, it means that the gods have not given up on his people. If the disease is not cured, it means that the people are not pious enough and have been abandoned by the gods. This also solves the problem of medical trouble.

Even if the death is really caused by treatment errors, the ruling class has shifted the responsibility to the gods. The problem is that your heart is impure and has nothing to do with your own treatment.

 Witch doctors in Africa belong to the ruling class, because most of these so-called doctors are tribal chiefs, priests or other high-level officials.

Of course, this kind of deceptive method also requires technical content. Ghosts and gods cannot always take the blame, and lies will one day be exposed.

This witch doctor system generally does more harm than good to East Africa, because it is still in the stage of primitive society and the version is too backward. The most mature traditional medicine is Far Eastern medicine and Arabic medicine. One is that it has been passed down for a long time and is becoming more and more complete. The other is that it takes advantage of the geographical convenience and the intersection of east and west, so it can combine the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought.

If East Africa chooses traditional Chinese medicine, it is natural to use Chinese medicinal materials. However, the growing environment of most Chinese medicinal materials is not available in East Africa, or there is no way to promote it at the moment, so it requires a large amount of money to import from the Far East. However, this is also more expensive than many Western medicines with unknown side effects. Much lower.

 The effect of the trial planting and promotion of Chinese herbal medicine in East Africa is not obvious, especially for some commonly used medicinal materials, such as Tiger Balm and ginseng.

The province of Hohenzollern is one of the trial planting bases for ginseng, mainly in shady river valleys.

“This kind of ginseng grown in Shanin can indeed mature, but I don’t know how the quality and efficacy compare with the Far Eastern Empire?”

"Currently, we have screened four ginseng planting bases across the country. From the finished product, it seems that the ginseng from Hesse Province grows best, is the largest, and is most in line with the characteristics of Far Eastern ginseng. Of course, we need to further observe the specific efficacy. More samples and clinical trials.”

“Hesse Province mainly relies on mountainous terrain. Although the finished products grown are of excellent quality, they are not suitable for large-scale promotion. I think we should try planting in the South African Plateau in the southernmost part of East Africa.”

 “Kyles, what do you think?”

“I mainly think about it from the perspective of light. I heard that the most suitable areas for ginseng planting in the Far East are at relatively high latitudes, and the highest latitudes in East Africa are the three southern provinces, which are already in the subtropical zone.”

“You take it for granted. Although the temperature of the South African plateau is suitable, it is not humid, and ginseng likes humid environments.”

"Of course I know this, so I suggest choosing the location in the former Kingdom of Swaziland, where precipitation should be relatively abundant and there is a relatively large platform."

“But many of us have never been to Swaziland, so we don’t know if what you said is true?”

"Of course, you don't understand me, so what's the point of lying to you? Now Swaziland is a prefecture-level city, and the indigenous population has basically been relocated. The population is very small, but there are troops stationed around it. Beware of the Portuguese, so there is absolutely no problem in terms of safety.”

“Well, Kells, how about I leave this task to you? You take a team to Swaziland to test it first, and then report the results at each stage.”

“Dean, I’m not good at it. It’s not like you don’t understand me. Although I like plants, my cultural level is limited. It’s definitely not possible for me to lead the team, unless you send Mars to me as your assistant.”

Mars smiled and said: "If I go to Swaziland, the team leader will be me. Where else can it be your turn? Moreover, I will go to Hesse Province for inspection in a few days, so the task still needs to be done." It falls on you.”

 “But I really have no experience!”

Dean: "Kyles, don't worry. In fact, you just need to do what you do here every day again in Swaziland. That's good. There will be a new intern in the future. When the time comes, I sent him to you. He is a man who has studied in Europe and returned. With his help, I believe you will have no problem!"

Kyles said helplessly: "That's the only way it can be."
