Chapter 4 Finding a job

As soon as he entered the door, the smell of dried herbs made Wang Zhe suddenly feel a little homesick and miss the dead old man at home.

The store is not big, only about 30 square meters, and there is an 'L' shaped counter, which is responsible for catching medicines, with a few small scales and a few bags of medicinal materials being matched.

Behind the counter is two rows of medicine cabinets, hundreds of drawers on the cabinet, each drawer is pasted with the name of a herb, look at the material of the cabinet of the hundreds, it should be a good agarwood, agarwood is the medicine, to store the medicine, presumably this shopkeeper is also a tasteful person, right?

There were no customers in the store, just a middle-aged man in his thirties dispensing medicine.

Seeing Wang Zhe coming in, the scale in his hand stopped, and greeted him with a smile: "The guest officer is here to see the disease?" Or do you come to buy medicine? ”

A middle-aged man in a simple cloth robe, full of guest officials, is so meaningful.

"Hmm......" Wang Zhe thought for a while and said with a smile: "Are you the shopkeeper here?" ”

"No, no, no." The middle-aged man shook his head, with a smile on his face, feeling very friendly: "You came to see Chinese medicine, right?" Seeing you face to face, I don't know if I can give you a pulse? ”

"It's fine." Wang Zhe nodded.

Sitting still and stretching out his hand, the man's three fingers lightly rested on Wang Zhe's vein, his head turned to the side, and his eyes kept moving back and forth.

Wang Zhe didn't bother, when he was eight years old, it took four minutes to check the old man's pulse, but looking at this middle-aged man, he should have only learned for a long time, and it took so long to take a pulse that was not sick.

After about 5 or 6 minutes, the middle-aged man said lightly: "There is nothing wrong with your body, but you should have been a little tired recently, do you want to prescribe some calming herbs?" We can replace decoctions, and the handling fee is quite cheap. ”

A businessman is a businessman, Wang Zhe has been a little tired recently, and he hasn't rested much since he was driven down the mountain, and he hasn't practiced, but it's okay to sleep well like this, and he still has a good soup?

Smiling, Wang Zhe shook his head: "It should be okay to sleep, by the way, I want to find your boss, is he there?" ”

The middle-aged man was told by Wang Zhe, touched his nose, smiled awkwardly, heard his words, and then shook his head: "Master, he went out, you are in good health, if you want to prescribe medicine, you can also find me, you are satisfied." ”

"It's not necessary to prescribe medicine, but, in fact, let's be honest, I also studied Chinese medicine, I just arrived in Kyoto today, and I accidentally turned here, and I saw a recruitment sign at the door, saying please do handymen, so come and try."

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at Wang Zhe carefully, although Wang Zhe has bronze skin, but his facial features are indeed delicate, and his height and weight are uniform, and he can handle it at a height of one meter eight.

"Studying Chinese medicine? Nowadays, there are too few young people who study Chinese medicine, how many years have they studied? The middle-aged man smiled slightly.

"Eighteen years." Wang Zhe is neither arrogant nor humble.

"Ugh! How old are you this year? ”

"Eighteen."

"This ......" The middle-aged man was stunned, shook his head with a wry smile: "Just born and went to school?" ”

"It's not really, it's just that I've been exposed to it a lot, so I can say that I grew up from a pile of herbs." Wang Zhe smiled and explained: "Grandpa told me that other children eat milk, I eat herbs, other children play with toys, and I play with herbs. When other children went to school, I watched "Herbal Collection", and over time, I learned Chinese medicine. ”

"A family of Chinese medicine?" The middle-aged man came interested.

"Yes, but I don't have parents, only my grandfather brought me up and passed it on from generation to generation."

The middle-aged man nodded, didn't say much, stretched out his right hand, lifted the cuffs, and put his hand on the soft pillow: "Give me a handle." ”

Wang Zhe is also not polite, two fingers on the vein, the old man has said, three fingers for entry, two fingers for ten years, one finger for half a life, and a lifetime of hanging silk.

It's about the realm and feeling, of course, this is just a surface, and it depends on the time and experience of the pulse. Many powerful Chinese medicine practitioners, taking the old man as an example, as long as the finger touches the vein, he can find out one in less than ten seconds.

Of course, those quacks say that the moment the finger touches it, it's pure, and you can explore it before someone else's pulse beats? Unless you are God.................. Menstrual illness.

Two minutes later, Wang Zhecai withdrew his hand and deliberately delayed for a long time, if it was usual, 40 seconds would be enough.

"The fire is a small problem that cannot be underestimated, the fire hurts the liver, the liver and gallbladder are the inside and the outside, and the eyes are open, is there a time recently, the vision is suddenly blurred, of course, just for a moment."

Judging from Wang Zhe's words and the time he took the pulse, the middle-aged man was secretly frightened, much higher than his own realm.

Thinking of this, he stood up, walked to the counter, and pointed to the half-mixed medicinal herbs: "This is the medicinal herb I prepared just now, which is to cure the liver, come and take a look, how about it?" ”

Looking at the herbs that were half mixed, such as bitter beans, small coptis, coriander, Shanglu, euphorbia, Erchou and other medicinal materials, Wang Zhe stretched out his hand: "Prescription." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and spread his hand: "It's not open." ”

Wang Zhe glanced at him, it was obvious that he was tempting, even if he grabbed the medicine himself, he had to prescribe medicine, many prescriptions have more than 50 kinds of prescriptions, even if his memory is good, in order to avoid mistakes, he must prescribe it, unless you want to play with your life.

There are more than 5,000 kinds of herbs in the 5,000-year-old culture of Chinese herbal medicine, and there are many kinds of prescriptions.

Seeing him test himself, Wang Zhe didn't care, picked up a prescription list on the table, lifted the ballpoint pen next to him, and began to write the prescription.

The middle-aged man tilted his head and looked at Wang Zhe's non-stop pen, nodding constantly in his heart, judging from the speed at which he prescribed prescriptions and the amount of medicine he dispensed, he was definitely a master, at least much better than himself.

Waiting for Wang Zhe to prescribe a prescription, the middle-aged man took out a prescription from his pocket and began to compare.

After a moment, the middle-aged man laughed: "Okay, I'll recruit you." ”

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the middle-aged man's master came back, and after more than an hour, the middle-aged man's name was Yu Haibo, who also came from an apprentice, and the owner of this shop was his master.

It is an old man in his sixties, with gray temples, and he is also a quaint outfit, the characteristic of this shop is to return to the ancients, and the titles are 'guest officer', 'you', 'under the bottom' and so on.

The old man's surname is Zhou Tianyu, when he heard Yu Haibo's introduction and said that Wang Zhe was from a family, he also took the test, I don't know if he saw the future of Chinese medicine from Wang Zhe, or because he was extraordinary.

Anyway, Zhou Lao smiled very happily, and almost recognized his godgrandson.

Inside the hall.

Zhou Lao took the pulse to cure the disease, Yu Haibo dispensed medicine, and after sending off a guest, Zhou Lao looked at Wang Zhe who was grinding medicine, and said: "Wang Zhe, you just arrived in Kyoto, do you have any relatives?" ”

"Nope." Wang Zhe stepped on the mill with both feet, and shook his head while grinding: "I am also a young man from Beipiao, in a place like Kyoto, it is good to have relatives." ”

"It just so happens that there is a vacant bed in the back hall, you and Hai Bo can keep the store, and save money to rent a house, which is very expensive." Old Zhou stroked his white beard, and his face was flushed.

Yu Haibo praised: "Xiao Wang, listen to the master, I'm bored alone every night, now there are more of you, we can also learn skills, and we can go out to drink and eat barbecue at night." ”

"Don't bother, do you?" Wang Zhe can't wait to live here, first, to save money, and secondly, to monitor Tianhai Mansion at a glance.

At this time, when he was grinding medicine, he was also sitting at the door, looking at Tianhai Mansion intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhou Lao is indeed an enthusiastic old man, although he has only seen Wang Zhe for a few hours, he likes this boy with high attainments in traditional Chinese medicine from the bottom of his heart.

At about six o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Zhe sat at the door, looking at a convoy of three black BMWs coming out of the back of Tianhai Building, and there was a flash of inspiration in his eyes - it was you.

A faint smile on the corner of his mouth unconsciously revealed.

…………

Although Li Huaisheng is the big boss of Tianhai Group, he goes to work on time every day, and he leaves work early after the regular meeting today, and today is his daughter's birthday.

In the convoy, Li Huaisheng was sitting in the middle of the car, and just got out of the road, a man wearing sunglasses next to him suddenly frowned.

Li Huaisheng observed the details, saw his appearance, and said lightly: "Ah Biao, what's wrong?" ”

"Someone behind us is staring at us." Ah Biao said coldly, maybe this is his true voice, he has been with Li Huaisheng for eight years, and even Li Huaisheng has never seen him laugh, maybe he has laughed, but Li Huaisheng has never seen it.

Li Huaisheng was dressed in a suit, with a mediocre appearance, a Chinese face, very thick eyebrows, and sharp eyes, and when he heard Ah Biao's words, he unconsciously glanced behind the car.

After staring for a long time, Li Huaisheng shook his head and said that he hadn't found it.

Ah Biao's brows had already loosened, and his voice continued to be cold: "The moment you go out of the street, you feel it, but after a hundred meters, it's gone." ”

"The other party is very powerful?"

Ah Biao shook his head: "I don't know." ”

…………

Three bowls of boxed lunch, Wang Zhe was a little depressed: "Old Zhou, do you eat this thing every day?" ”

In the hall, the three of them pulled down the roller shutter door halfway and set up a small table to eat.

When Yu Haibo heard this, he smiled slightly: "I think it's very good." ”

"Yes, you're still young, it's okay to suffer a little." Zhou Lao also nodded.

"That's not what I meant." Wang Zhe smiled: "I mean, it's okay for me and Brother Haibo to eat this, after all, we are only 2 or 30 years old, you are both in the age of sixties, and you still eat boxed lunches every day?" ”

"Get used to it." Zhou Lao laughed, put the lunch box on the small table, took out a wine jug from his pocket, and after unscrewing it, a mellow fragrance came out.

"Ha, I'm happy today." Boss Zhou took a sip, looked at Yu Haibo, and then looked at Wang Zhe: "Two years ago, Haibo apprenticed, I used to support this shop alone, after having Haibo, I also had a lot of leisure, and now there are more of you, I want to be more idle after I come, but the habit of this lunch box has been many years, I calculate." ”

Zhou Lao raised his fingers and began to calculate, a white-bearded and white-haired old man played with his fingers, looking a little funny.

Yu Haibo smiled at Wang Zhe and shook his head, for this master, Yu Haibo loves and respects.

"Oh, it's Friday today? Tomorrow we will improve the food, you kid is really lucky, you are blessed. ”

Wang Zhe was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”

Yu Haibo explained: "The super five-star chef came to cook for us, and he came every Saturday and Sunday, so the master said that you are blessed." ”

"Super five-star?" Wang Zhe was confused by the two of them, and seeing that they didn't intend to explain, Wang Zhe shrugged his shoulders and said in his heart, what about five stars? Is there a delicious old man cooking? Is it delicious to have my own medicinal diet? Hum.

The inner hall is not big, almost the same as the outside, and it is more than 30 square meters.

According to Yu Haibo, this was originally a 6 or 70 square meter store.

Zhou Lao felt that he didn't need to be so big, so he built a wall in the middle, when he didn't come before, Zhou Lao guarded the store, and when Zhongnan Road was not a commercial street, someone would knock on the door in the middle of the night for treatment.

After apprenticing with Haibo two years ago, Zhou Lao also went home to live, and the inner hall saved Haibo alone, with only one TV and two corresponding small beds.

At night, Wang Zhe was a little unaccustomed, although he used to live with the old man on the mountain, he didn't live with outsiders, and he was a middle-aged man, more or less unaccustomed.

"Xiao Wang, come to a cigarette." At night, Yu Haibo poured out the water in the thermos to soak his feet, watched Wang Zhe pack up his rag bag, took out a cigarette and asked.

"No, it won't." Wang Zhe smiled and refused, in fact, who wouldn't smoke? I remember when I was fourteen years old, I went down the mountain and saw others smoking, and I learned it a few times, but I didn't have a special preference for this thing, so I politely said it.

Yu Haibo didn't say much, remembering that Wang Zhe was only 18 years old, he smiled faintly, looked at him churning the cloth bag, and asked: "When I entered the door, I saw you taking a bag, what was inside?" It doesn't look like clothing, does it? ”

"Well, I didn't bring my clothes, these are the medicinal herbs I brought from home when I came, and I was on the road in case I needed them, and if I had a headache and fever, I was so emergency." Wang Zhe didn't explain much, and continued to check the medicinal herbs.

After soaking his feet, Yu Haibo finished smoking a cigarette and tidied up the quilt beside him: "Xiao Wang, it's the road, wash and sleep early, and I'll take you to buy a long shirt tomorrow." ”

"I'm going to wear a kaftan too?" Wang Zhe was stunned for a moment, the Chinese medicine gown, he was only 18 years old, and it was estimated that he was nondescript to wear.

Yu Haibo suddenly thought of it, and smiled slightly: "Let's see it tomorrow, anyway, change your sportswear, no matter what, you have to wear a white coat, okay, sleep." ”

The next day, the commercial street opened early, and Yu Haibo got up early in the morning, brushed his teeth and washed his face, and folded his quilts for fitness.

Wang Zhe, who was about to sleep lazily, was embarrassed to get out of bed.

One of the three hobbies on weekdays is sleeping, but now it's 'people under the roof and have to get up'.

Zhou Lao also came early, and at 9 o'clock he brought a few breakfasts, fritters and bean juice, and carried another bag containing a white coat and a gray coat.

After putting down breakfast, Zhou Lao confessed: "You two look at the store, Wang Zhe, although you are not very old, you entered the industry relatively early, and guests should pay more attention when they come." ”

After the explanation, he left in a hurry.

Yu Haibo smiled bitterly: "You kid snatched my position as soon as he came, I don't care, I'll see the guests first, and then I will change you." ”

Wang Zhe also looked helpless: "Brother Haibo's practice is deeper than mine, naturally you see, by the way, what is Boss Zhou doing early in the morning?" ”

"Go to Tong County, go to Tong County every Saturday morning, look at medicine or something, and buy it back by the way if there is a good one."
