Zhangshu Chinese medicine processing technology (the fourth batch of national level) Zhangshu Chinese medicine processing technology is an important part of my country's medical treasure house, a shining treasure in my country's Chinese medicine industry, a unique traditional pharmaceutical technology in my country, and a self-contained system in my country. It is well-known throughout the country for its exquisite pharmaceutical technology that "medicine is not effective without camphor". It has a long history, rich connotations, and distinct local characteristics. Zhangshu Chinese medicine processing technology is the ancient culture of Qingjiang. The pottery and pottery jars (wine warmers) of the Fancheng people in ancient times (4500 BC); the bronze mortars (crushers) of the Yin and Shang dynasties in Wucheng (more than 3000 years ago) are all the sources of Zhangshu Chinese medicine processing technology. From the Western Han Dynasty to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the founder of the Lingbao School of Taoism, Ge Xuan (202 AD) and his successor Ge Hong (284-364 AD) successively came to Gezhao Mountain in Zhangshu to practice medicine, collect herbs and make medicine. The "Emergency Prescriptions for the Elbow" written by them has been translated into many foreign languages and has become a world-famous masterpiece. It is regarded as a classic book on the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines by the Zhangshu medicine gang. It has influenced the Zhangshu pharmaceutical industry for thousands of years and is the beginning of the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu. Hou Fengbing (1216-1290) of the Southern Song Dynasty moved his family to Zhangshu Sixie Pharmacy in 1279 and set up a Chinese herbal medicine preparation workshop, specializing in the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines, deepening and consolidating the cornerstone of the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu, establishing the reputation of the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu, and forming the preparation of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the processing skills of Chinese medicinal materials in Zhangshu developed to its peak and spread in the Yangtze River and Pearl River basins, forming the largest pharmaceutical gang in the country, referred to as the "Zhangbang", which has been in a three-legged tripod with the "Beijing Gang" and "Sichuan Gang" for more than 800 years. After the founding of New China, it was the period of revitalization of the processing skills of Chinese medicinal materials in Zhangshu. Chairman Mao instructed on October 11, 1958: "Chinese medicine is a great treasure house, and we should work hard to explore and improve it." The Party and the State issued a series of preferential policies such as protection, incentives, encouragement, and rewards. The policies for Chinese medicinal materials processing technicians have been implemented, and their enthusiasm has been fully mobilized. The processing methods with clinical efficacy that were lost in the past have been discovered, which is full of vitality and vitality for disease prevention and treatment, saving thousands of patients from danger. Now it is a great event for the population, and the career achievements of humanities and patriots are brilliant. Theoretical research on the processing techniques of Chinese medicinal materials in Zhangshu has also achieved brilliant results, and two books have been published: "The Complete Book of Chinese Medicine Processing in Zhangshu", published by Jiangxi Science and Technology Press in 1990, and "Traditional Processing Methods of Chinese Medicine in Zhangshu", published by Jiangxi People's Publishing House in 1983; "Summary of Experience in Processing and Processing Chinese Medicine in Zhangshu Area" won the third prize of Jiangxi Province's Outstanding Scientific and Technological Achievements in 1984, and a prize of 10,000 yuan; papers such as "The Unique Stir-frying Method in the Processing of Chinese Medicine in Zhangshu" and "The Unique Processing Method of Poison in the Processing of Chinese Medicine in Zhangshu" were published in national journals; "Research on the Processing of Rhubarb" was exchanged at the International Rhubarb Academic Conference; "Discussion on the Processing Technology of Frankincense and Myrrh" and "Experiences in Processing and Processing of Atractylodes" were attended at the "First National Academic Conference on the Processing of Chinese Medicine", and "On the Traditional Processing Methods of Chinese Medicine in Zhangshu" was attended at the 94 Cross-Strait Special Medical Forum, all of which were exchanged at national academic conferences. He also attended academic conferences in East China and above the province to present papers, and published papers in provincial journals. The above achievements have summarized the essence of the processing technology of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu in a relatively complete way, thus greatly enriching the expressiveness, vitality and influence of the processing technology of Chinese herbal medicines in Zhangshu. It has been favored and paid attention to by international friends such as Japan, South Korea, and the United States. It enjoys a high reputation in the international community and has a place in the world. It has become one of the unique advantages and strengths of China in the contemporary international scientific research and technological cooperation, economic development cooperation, and scientific and cultural exchanges. This is one of its influences and values; the second value is that its contribution to the cause of human health, disease prevention and treatment in the past, present and future is inestimable; the third is to carry forward the traditional medicinal culture of the Chinese nation. Note: There is a written record: In 1958, Governor Shao Shiping used the name of "Medicine Capital Zhangshu" for the first time in his instructions on the "Report on the Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Chinese Medicine" of the Party Group of the Jiangxi Provincial Health Department. Since then, "Medicine Capital" has officially become another crown of Zhangshu, famous at home and abroad. On March 5, 1963, when inspecting Qingjiang County, the chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress said: "The Zhangshu medicine industry has been very prosperous in history. 'There is Zhangshu in the south and Anguo in the north'. 'Medicines are not complete without Zhangshu, and medicines are not effective without Zhangshu'" refers to the two main contents of Zhangshu Chinese medicinal materials processing techniques and methods for identifying the authenticity of Zhangshu Chinese medicinal materials.
