For a while, the entrance of the small shop was surrounded by a raging crowd again.

The peasant woman who was holding the child in her arms just now rushed up again excitedly, waving the banknotes in her hand, and shouted: "Give me a bottle, give me a bottle. My child is sick, continue to nourish the wine, give me a bottle quickly!" bottle."

Seeing this, Fade Chen blocked the crowd for the peasant woman, and sold her a bottle of health wine.

The peasant woman was overjoyed, and immediately squatted at the door of the store with the health-preserving wine, opened the bottle cap, carefully poured out the bottle cap, and then fed it to the coughing child in her arms.

Seeing this, Fade Chen couldn't help frowning, and stepped forward to stop him: "What are you doing? Feeding such a small child with wine!"

Although health-preserving wine has many health-care effects, it is wine after all. It is not a good thing to drink to children of a few years old.

Seeing such a big man as Fade Chen approaching, the peasant woman couldn't help feeling nervous for a while, stuttering a bit, looked at Fade Chen timidly and said, "The child is sick and needs to drink."

When Fade Chen heard this, he was even more puzzled, and said, "The child is sick, you take the child to the hospital to see a doctor! Why are you feeding him wine here?"

The peasant woman became even more timid when she saw Fade Chen getting angry, and said: "The hospital is too expensive, I look down on it, so I can only buy health wine for the children."

"Your child just has a cough, how expensive is it to see a doctor." Fade Chen couldn't help but shouted, "Health wine is not medicine after all, besides, it's not good for such a young child to drink alcohol."

The peasant woman shrank her head and said, "I took the child to the hospital. The doctor said that it would cost 8,000 yuan to fully cure it. I look down on it, so I want to buy health wine to treat the child's illness."

"What! Look at the cough, it costs 8,000 yuan! Why is the hospital so expensive?" Fade Chen couldn't help frowning, "Did you go to the wrong hospital?"

"Well, that's still the cheapest." The peasant woman whispered.

"How come?" Fade Chen was puzzled.

At this time, the surrounding crowd also chattered.

"Mr. Chen, you are a big boss, you don't know the difficulties of us ordinary people!"

"That's right, the cost of medicine in the hospital is soaring now, it costs one or two thousand for a common cold and fever!"

"It goes without saying that there are more complicated diseases. If you go in casually, it will cost 30,000 to 40,000 yuan!"

"You rich people may not care about this little money, but we ordinary people really can't afford it!"

………

The more Chen Fei listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he asked about it on the spot.

Then, Fade Chen, who learned about the situation, instantly became serious.

The group of panic-buyers at the entrance of the small shop were basically in the same situation as the peasant woman. All of them are family members or themselves who are sick, but they can't afford to go to the hospital, so they rush to buy health wine.

From the prices they said, Fade Chen felt that the cost of seeing a doctor in the hospital seemed to have skyrocketed a lot in the past few months.

Fade Chen knew that things seemed to be more complicated than he imagined. This was not simply a shopkeeper driving up prices.

Immediately, Fade Chen didn't say much, and after helping to cure the baby in the peasant woman's arms, he immediately returned to the company with Manager Han.

After returning to the company, Fade Chen immediately summoned the person in charge of health wine sales to ask about the situation.

As a result, the person in charge did not know the specific situation. I just know that in the recent period, the sales of health wine are very hot, and the whole Longjiang City is crazy about buying them.

Chen Fei was furious when he heard the words, and asked his subordinates to go to various sales outlets to investigate the relevant situation in person.

Soon, the results of the investigation were reported. Fade Chen looked at all the investigation results and found that the situation at each sales point was almost the same as what he saw at the entrance of the small shop.

Almost every small shop was surrounded by hundreds of people rushing to buy. The sale of health-preserving wine at a higher price and collusion with scalpers are also common.

And the reason is that it is all because of the skyrocketing hospital medical expenses.

During the period when Fade Chen and Zhang Qiuyue left Longjiang City, the medical expenses in Longjiang City almost doubled by four or five times. The already high expenses increased so many times that ordinary people couldn't afford it.

Therefore, many sick people have to find another way. Some are staying at home instead of going for medical treatment. Some looked around for various folk methods.

Not long ago, some patients who stayed at home recovered after drinking the autumn health wine. As the news spread, the common people who had no money for medical treatment immediately began to snap up health-preserving wine.

After all, five hundred yuan a bottle of health wine is quite expensive when it is regarded as a dispensable drink. But as a medicine for curing diseases and saving lives, it is very cheap compared to the medical expenses after the skyrocketing.

As a result, the entire Longjiang City immediately set off a frenzy of buying health-preserving wine.

As soon as this craze started, the price of health-preserving wine naturally rose accordingly.

It's just that although the price of health wine has risen, the effect is good, and the hospital's medical expenses have also risen sharply. Therefore, many people are still rushing to buy health wine.

This created the panic buying scene that Fade Chen saw in the shop just now.

After learning about these reasons, Fade Chen immediately ordered to work overtime to speed up the production of health-preserving wine, and at the same time strictly control the price increase of each sales point.

Of course, Fade Chen also knew that these measures were just superficial means and could not solve the root cause.

As long as the phenomenon of high medical expenses in hospitals still exists, the phenomenon of snapping up health-preserving wine cannot be eradicated. After all, with the current scale of the Autumn Group, it is impossible for Longjiang City, a city with several million people, to have sufficient supply of health-preserving wine in the short term.

Therefore, to solve this problem, we must start from the root cause and find out the reason for the high medical expenses.

Thinking of this, Fade Chen immediately took out his mobile phone and called Dr. Tao Lingtao.

"Hello, Fade Chen, have you returned to the provincial capital?" Tao Ling on the phone seemed very busy. She could vaguely hear her trotting footsteps, as well as the noise behind her.

"Well, I just came back yesterday. Doctor Tao, what happened to the soaring medical expenses in the hospital?" Fade Chen asked.

Tao Ling said: "You have discovered this problem. I can't explain it for a while."

"Then when are you free, Doctor Tao?" Fade Chen asked.

"Get off work, I'll tell you face to face after get off work today." Tao Ling said.

"Okay, it's at the Sichuan Restaurant at the entrance of the City No. 1 Hospital!" Fade Chen confirmed the location.

Tao Ling said, "Okay, I'll call you after get off work."

After hanging up the phone, Fade Chen then called Mr. Du Nepeta Du of the Du Medical Center and asked Mr. Du to come out as well.

Soon, when it was time to get off work in the afternoon, Fade Chen arrived in front of the city's first hospital ahead of time, ordered food and sat down in the Sichuan restaurant.
