Chapter Seventy-Two: Two Doctors
When Yang Shoubei heard this, he felt that what Li Yan said made sense. As long as Li Yan said this to Su County, Su County would definitely give him a document. But what can he get by Yang Shoubei?
Yang Shoubei's hesitation was seen by Li Yan, so he said in a low voice: "If the garrison wants to change a few weapons, then take it here, and it should be given to the garrison by Li." ”
Yang Shoubei rolled his eyes and said: "We are not village soldiers, our weapons and horses are all supplied by the imperial court." ”
Li Yan knew now that this Yang Shoubei wanted something else. He knew that Yang Shoubei was a veteran of the flowers, and he had been a guard for four years, and he had to marry a concubine almost every year. And the other outer rooms that have not been married to the doorman, there are several.
"Then how about Li give a hundred taels of silver to the garrison?" Li Yan offered a new price.
Yang Shoubei was a little annoyed, and frowned: "Ben will still lack this little bit of money?!" ”
Li Yan explained with a smile: "This is even higher than the county's Yulu." Besides, Li sends a hundred taels to the garrison every year, what is there to dissatisfaction with the garrison? ”
"Cut!" Yang Shoubei sneered: "Which county master lives on Yulu?" Come to a fellow villager, the same year, and the same clan, those Cheng Yi who are not even gifted are enough. ”
Li Yan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Two hundred taels, two hundred taels of silver a year, how about it?" If the garrison is still too small, then Li will not be unjustly paid, and I will go to the county with the garrison. ”
Yang Shoubei glanced at Li Yan and felt that he couldn't knock anymore, so he smiled happily and said, "Oh, since it is Li Jiang's general industry and it is to build equipment for the township soldiers in this county, it is natural to continue to work." ”
"Thank you for your foresight." Li Yan thanked him.
Yang Shoubei also returned the salute with a fist, but then said in a low voice: "Within ten days, I will wait for you." ”
Li Yan nodded, and also smiled and whispered: "Don't worry, within ten days, it will definitely be sent to the house." ”
"Gone, gone. Check out the other workshops. Yang Shoubei beckoned his men to leave.
When the soldiers had retreated, Blacksmith Zhou was unconvinced and asked, "Childe, why spend this unjust money?" Just go to the old parents (prefectural order) and make it clear. ”
Li Yan explained: "After all, he is in charge of this place, if his anger is not smooth, and he comes to find some trouble from time to time, then how can you start work?" It's better to spend some money and buy him not to make trouble. ”
Blacksmith Zhou was speechless, the county officials might as well be in charge, if Yang Shoubei was unhappy and saw Tian'er coming to find trouble, they couldn't start work with peace of mind.
Li Yan said: "Prepare the waist knife, spear head, and arrowhead you made, and I will take them all today." ”
"Okay." Blacksmith Zhou agreed, and told the workers to carry things. After that, he said to Li Yan: "By the way, Childe, I found two Langzhong on the street, I don't know if Childe wants it?" ”
"Lang Zhong?" Li Yan said in surprise: "Great, where is it?" In the stockade, there is a lack of Langzhong. The brothers were wounded, and I took care of them, and now it's all right. ”
Blacksmith Zhou pointed outside and said, "They are treating the hungry people in the City God Temple." If you want me to say, there is no illness at all, they are all hungry, and if you eat enough for two days, you will be fine. ”
Li Yan immediately followed the blacksmith Zhou to the City God Temple, and found that hundreds of hungry people had gathered there. The temple is not allowed to enter, it is the patron saint of the city.
If it was in the Hongwu Dynasty, there would be several human fur figures in the City God Temple in each city. And the emperor's will is also to require the newly appointed officials to go to the city god first to see the fate of their corrupt colleagues. But it's okay now, there is no such cruel punishment, but the gods of the city god still can't be disturbed casually.
Blacksmith Zhou took Li Yan and found the two Lang Zhong who were treating the hungry people in the crowd.
"Doctor Wu, Doctor He." Blacksmith Zhou shouted. But neither doctor moved, still kneeling on the ground, checking the pulse of their respective patients.
Li Yan stopped Blacksmith Zhou from continuing to greet him, and the two of them carefully avoided the hungry people who were lying or sitting, and slowly walked to the vicinity of the two doctors.
After the two doctors had finished looking at their respective patients, Dr. Wu took out a little leaf, handed it to the patient, and asked him to go back and boil water to drink. Dr. He comforted the patient and said that it was okay, as long as he drank more water.
The two doctors stood up, came to Li Yan's face, and arched their hands: "But Li Gongzi? ”
Li Yan returned the salute and nodded: "It's exactly below." Two gentlemen, let's find a place to talk. ”
Dr. Wu looked back at the hungry people in the square and asked, "If Gongzi can save the two of us, can't he save these poor people?" ”
Li Yan looked at the hundreds of hungry people, and said helplessly: "If you can't do it, please forgive me." ”
Dr. He nodded and said, "In the year of the catastrophe, this is the time of the year, and manpower is beyond reach. Li Gongzi, let's go, we are here to add sadness. ”
Li Yan and Blacksmith Zhou took the two doctors to the blacksmith shop. Li Yan asked on the way, "Mr. Wu, what did you give to that patient?" It seems to be a leaf. ”
Doctor Wu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Goji berry leaves, clear the heat and clear the purpose, there is only this thing left." Let them take it and boil it to drink, it has a taste, better than plain water. ”
"My herbs are gone, and if it weren't for some alms from the City God Temple, we would have been starving." Dr. He also said helplessly.
When they arrived at the blacksmith's shop, the blacksmiths began to work, and the iron-makers, iron-screwers, and furnace-burners performed their duties, and jingled non-stop.
Li Yan said apologetically: "It's a little noisy here, but we're going to go out of the city in the afternoon, so please ask the two gentlemen to take a moment." ”
"It doesn't matter, it is a great fortune in life to have a place to live and to be able to eat well." Dr. He said self-deprecatingly.
Li Yan asked, "Where are the families of the two?" I tried my best to invite them to join them together, so that they would not have to be separated. ”
Doctor Wu and Doctor He glanced back, shook their heads and said, "You Fang Langzhong, where are the family members?" It's gone, so Childe doesn't have to bother. ”
Li Yan didn't delve into it, it didn't matter if it was true or fake, as long as they could serve him. He said, "So do you have any research on injuries such as knives and arrows?" ”
Doctor He spoke first: "I dabble in the next little." ”
Doctor Wu got up and said goodbye: "I will only see the disease in the lower direction, and it will not be of much benefit to the son, so I will leave in the lower place." ”
Li Yan hurriedly said: "Mr. Wu doesn't have to be presumptuous, external injuries need to be treated, and internal diseases must be seen, please Mr. Wu must stay." Besides, it's much easier for you to learn if you want to than if you don't have a foundation, don't you say? ”
Doctor Wu sat down again, nodded and said, "Then Gongzi Xie will give him food." ”
