On the day I arrived at Huaizhou City, it happened to be a rare sunny day in winter, the sun shone on the ancient city wall, and even the moss between the cracks in the wall was dyed with a faint golden yellow.

The journey of more than four months in a row exhausted everyone, and when Huaizhou City looked again, Wang Xiaoshi took the lead in shouting excitedly, and then several gentlemen opened their throats and shouted.

Even Zidu's little face, which had not changed for 10,000 years, showed a faint joy.

Yang Zixi sat in the carriage, stared at the city wall in the distance with his feet crossed, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and finally brought everyone to Huaizhou! She moved her leg and carefully landed her foot on the ground, the dull pain in the center of her foot like a pinprick pain, but it was difficult to eliminate the joy in her heart.

"As a doctor, I don't have to worry about it, and I still want to run when my feet are soaked?" Twilight said behind her.

Yang Zixi smiled and didn't care, so she could hear the meaning of concern from the little guy's twisted words. She gritted her teeth, took another step, and turned back and said, "I want to step into Huaizhou City by myself, you won't understand this feeling." ”

Zidui: "......" I naturally don't understand, who can understand your mortal boring feelings? ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Huaizhou is located on the north bank of the lower reaches of the Huaijiang River, facing the sea in the east, Lishan in the south, the rivers, lakes, sea and mountains are blended, and it is the largest and most prosperous town in this dynasty except Kyoto.

Huaizhou is known as the "land of fish and rice" and "paradise on earth", and the settlement of Nanhuai Academy in Huaizhou has also made it a gathering place for literati and artists.

Due to the road guide opened by Liuzhou, a group of people smoothly entered the city, walked around with great interest, and soon found a serious problem...... Huaizhou is one of the most prosperous cities. The price level here is too high!!

Before the riots in Liangzhou, a penny could buy a steamed bun. One stone of rice is only two taels of silver, but Huaizhou's steamed buns are five Wen. It's still very small. Speaking of staying in the hotel, it only costs one or two taels to go to the room in the best inn in Liangzhou, and everyone has visited Huaizhou City, and it costs five taels to stay in the most ordinary inn for one night!!

Yang Zixi counted the cash in his hand and found that he was not far from extreme poverty......

More than 700 taels of silver brought out from Liangzhou, 450 taels bought Liuzhou's ID card; The rest was spent on high-priced grain, and now there are less than a hundred taels left. According to the current price in Huaizhou, it is enough for everyone to eat and live for two or three days!

If you want to make money, you have to open a medical hall first, and you have to open a medical hall first. The pan shop must have silver first, and if there is silver, it must first open a medical center...... Sitting in front of the soup cake shop, Yang Zixi's head fell into a dead loop and couldn't extricate himself......

"If not...... I took the silver ticket to the bank to redeem it, right? Wang Xiaoshi leaned over and said, there were eight hundred taels of silver tickets sewn into his coat.

"That's your money, you rely on it for the rest of your life to marry a daughter-in-law and buy a house, even if you become my apprentice, you don't have such a high tuition fee." Yang Zixi replied without thinking about it.

Wang Xiaoshi: "......"

"By the way, where is Nanhuai Academy in Huaizhou? Why didn't we see it just now? Yang Zixi turned around and asked Sister-in-law Huang.

Sister-in-law Huang has already chatted with the proprietress of the soup cake shop through the moment of buying soup cakes. I asked about the general situation in Huaizhou City.

Seeing her master's question, she hurriedly replied: "Actually, Nanhuai Academy is not in the city, but is located near Xiangfang Village in Wulidi, on the outskirts of the city. ”

"Xiangfang Village?" Yang Zixi repeated a sentence and muttered to himself: "The price in the village should be much cheaper than in the city, right?" If you live in a village. It is close to the academy, and it is convenient for children to go to school. ”

Everyone: "......" master, isn't your great dream to open your own medical center? Are you going to change your career to become a rural veterinarian? Can I get a source of tourists when I move to the countryside?

Zidui: "......" Don't keep talking about the master's studies! The young master is not mentally prepared for school yet!

However, it is obvious that Yang Zixi did not take into account that the little guy's admission still needs psychological construction. In her opinion, it is natural for a little child to enter school when he reaches age. Not being a top student is a loss of face.

So, the problem of foothold was finally finalized in the soup cake shop.

The group finished visiting Huaizhou City. I didn't want to buy anything, so I went straight to Xiangfang Village.

Five miles was no more than a pediatric for the people who had traveled for months, and by evening they had arrived at the entrance of the village.

I saw that the side of the official road was facing the lake, and a sprawling path branched off from the official road, passing through three archways, and leading to the mountain villa on the other side of the river.

Xiangfang Village is located at the foot of Lishan Mountain, facing the lake and the back of the mountain, and the scenery is very good.

At this moment, there is little smoke in the cooking, and the smell of food wafts from every house.

Yang Zixi is very satisfied, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, which is completely in line with her vision of a quiet life.

However, as the group drove the carriage and walked through the winding path, they realized that this tranquility came at a price......

The yellow and white peeling earthen houses are surrounded by small courtyards. The chickens pecking at the door were thin and had few hairs, most of the pigsty was empty, and the only pig that was kept had almost no fat on its body, and the bones were clearly visible. The eaves are full of cabbage and peppers, and I didn't see half a slice of bacon, and there were naturally no sausages, and it seemed that the people in the village hadn't tasted oil and water for a long time.

The village is poor, so it is deserted and silent.

Everyone looked at each other, and it took a long time for Yang Zixi to speak: "At least the rent can be reduced to the minimum......

When the chief of the village heard that a stranger was coming, he came out with someone. Due to its proximity to Nanhuai Academy, there are still many literati who come to stay overnight every year, so they are no strangers to the villagers of Xiangfang Village, which can be said to be a fixed source of wealth for them.

“…… Our Xiangfang Village Feng Shui is good, Nanhuai Academy holds an entrance exam every spring, and eighty percent of the students who have passed have lived in our Xiangfang Village, so as long as we are stained with the aura of the landscape of our Xiangfang Village, we are guaranteed to pass the exam in the spring next year! The lieutenant stroked his beard and boasted.

It's like an inn where Zhuang Yuanlang lived, but there is still an entrance exam for Nanhuai Academy?

"When will the entrance exams start?" Yang Zixi couldn't help but ask.

"That is, at the beginning of March," said the editor, "to be honest, as long as the Chinese New Year is over, students from all over the world will come to our village to stay temporarily, and they will not be able to vacate any rooms at that time!" You came early, so you could have decided first. We are much cheaper here than Huaizhou City, only one or two silver a night. ”

Yang Zixi smiled, a tael of silver? Is that all there is to it? It's too expensive: "We're not living temporarily, we're going to settle here, and we don't know if we have a house or land for sale?" ”

As soon as he heard that the person was not renting a house, the mayor's enthusiasm instantly cooled down, and his smiling face suddenly pulled the elder, and said coldly: "No! With that, he prepared to lead the people for a walk.

Yang Zixi was stunned for a moment, and then figured it out, this place is adjacent to Nanhuai Academy, and every year it makes a lot of money for students by renting out houses, who will have an idle house for sale? As long as there is a tile to cover the roof, you can vacate it for rent, right?

However, she wasn't prepared to give up easily.

"Walk slowly," she said before the other party left, "In fact, with only the rental income of a few days before the entrance examination of Nanhuai Academy in March every year, it is difficult for the people in the village to get rich, right?" ”

When the lieutenant heard the words in these words, he couldn't help but stop.

For this group of people led by a nine-year-old girl, he was already full of doubts in his heart. Say they're rich, right? Not like that! Except for the youngest boy, who was not good-looking, the people next to him were all thin, and the padded jackets on his body were also very shabby. But if it is said that it is a poor man, how can a poor man bring a dozen or so servant women to the people?

He turned around and said, "You mean ......?" ”

Yang Zixi said with a smile: "I settled here, not only to send my younger brother to Nanhuai Academy, but also to open a medical center, when not only the health of the villagers will be guaranteed, but also people from all over the world will come to seek medical treatment." Wouldn't it be better to rent a house to these patients than to rent it to students seasonally? ”

Li Chang looked Yang Zixi up and down again in surprise: "You? Doctor? Giving people a look? ”

"Yes," Yang Zixi said calmly, "I opened a medical clinic in my hometown of Liuzhou, and I am still famous. ”

Li Chang thought for a moment, although he was skeptical in his heart, but if he really came to the doctor, it would still be very beneficial to the village. The village is poor, and after paying the tax on the grain collected by every household every year, it will be enough to fill the stomach, if there is a headache and brain fever, it is usually hard, where can I have the money to see a doctor? If there is a free medical ......

"Well, in that case, I will speak openly," the chief made up his mind, "there is a mountain keeper's house at the foot of Lishan outside the village, and now it is empty and no one lives in it, and if you can afford to pay a hundred taels of silver, it will not hurt to sell it to you, on the condition that the people of our village can see the disease for free." ”

When Yang Zixi heard this, he replied with a smile: "One hundred taels is no problem, I can give you silver now, but it's free...... In this way, I will give free medical treatment to the people in the village for three years, and after three years, I will charge normally, otherwise when I open a medical hall, I will not open a good hall, and I will not accept cash, will I not drink the northwest wind? ”

The lieutenant chief thought about it, and agreed, with this extra hundred taels of silver, the ancestral hall in the village can be repaired and repaired, and there is no remaining subsidy for his own family, and he has won three years of free medical treatment...... It is estimated that it can also appease the villagers in the village. The most important thing is that the house of the mountain keeper is located outside the village, and strictly speaking, it does not occupy the private and public land in the village, so there should not be too many people who jump out to oppose it.

"That's it, you pay the money, come with me, settle down first, and wait for tomorrow to dawn, and then go into the city to go through the relocation procedures." The old man took matters into his own hands. (To be continued......)
