Chapter 21: The Cover of Jimin Pharmacy

The most thoughtless estimate here is Huang Xing and Sun Xiang, the two of them have a rare opportunity to feast, and they are holding a plate and eating non-stop at this time, and He Yong and He Xing's uncle and nephew also guessed that Qin Kai's reception of this Westerner in his house today is also to convey a message to the He family, and he has regarded the He family as a trusted friend.

And what I see now, it makes He Xing have an inexplicable worry, if he has something to do with foreigners, at least he is a second devil, and besides, he is somewhat suspected of betraying the country, which also makes his uncle and nephew look at each other, but thinking of Qin Kai's personality and what he has done during this time, He Xing has regained some confidence, but he still decided to ask this matter clearly.

The conversation in the room was obviously very harmonious, and laughter was heard from time to time, Qin Kai's work experience in his previous life still played a big role, and in an hour and a half, an agreement acceptable to both parties was signed, Feng? Mr. Schleier came out with a smile on his face.

According to the agreement, Qin Kai will provide a full set of design drawings for the "Inflecil" ironclad ship, and at the same time, he also obtained the patent authorization of the "full-function internal and external grinding machine" authorized by Qin Kai, which is said to be a technology that is 10 years ahead of England and the United States.

What made him feel that the relationship between the two sides was unbreakable was that Qin Kai had promised that he hoped that every Qiē deal with Germany would be carried out through his own channels, and in the face of exclusive political achievements, Schleier naturally made some concessions, and the two sides negotiated the agreement and remuneration very smoothly.

The price of the two detailed design drawings of the warship and the patent of the grinding machine was agreed at 11 million marks, about 1.8 million taels of silver.

Under the agreement between the two parties, some very constructive methods were proposed, part of the payment was paid for by equipment and technicians, and Qin Kai proposed a large set of purchase plans, including blast furnace steelmaking and rolling equipment produced by Siemens, a complete set of chemical equipment, Zeiss high-power optical lens production patents, brush Kaopf torpedo production lines, various types of machine tools and no less than 100 German technicians.

Slyer was also frightened by Qin Kai's catalog, he naturally understood that it was impossible to conclude a deal with some of the equipment involving secrets, but this was obviously one of the skilled diplomatic means of this Lord Qin, and the two sides estimated that in addition to the torpedo production line, the price was about 130,000 taels, and he also promised to contact the country immediately and give the most suitable price for the transaction.

In the end, Qin Kai proposed a plan for the purchase of ironclad ships, but this plan was obviously a bit peculiar, he needed a 3,500-ton second-class ironclad battleship, but there was no need to equip it with weapons, he pointed out that it was made by the German Volkeng shipyard, and the design referred to the power compartment and ammunition depot layout of the "Infleczein".

An ironclad ship without artillery is somewhat strange, but it is also a big business, Schleier's estimated offer is about 450,000 taels, which is also within the range of Qin Kai's bearing.

Early the next morning, Schleier quietly left Mawei Port in Germany, he came and went in a hurry, and only Qin Kai's cronies in Fuzhou Mansion knew that there was such a big drama.

Afterwards, He Xing came to Qin Kai privately, and the two talked for a whole afternoon, anyway, Huang Xing and Sun Xiang, who had been waiting at the door, came out of it with excited expressions afterwards, and the He family quickly changed hands on the original old industry in the family after getting the news that He Xing brought back, because Qin Kai had secretly granted the He family to develop a second industry.

In the past few days, the He family quietly ordered a cooked medicine shop in Fuzhou City, and Lao Liu of the He family, who was in line with Qin Kai's help, immediately sent to the cooked medicine shop to take inventory and count the medicines.

Yingde Town, Fuzhou Prefecture, is a big town with more than 1,000 households, there is an old house in the west of the town, the area of the house is quite large, but the courtyard wall of the house seems to have not been repaired for decades, it looks quite dilapidated from the outside, not enough men and women, old and young to enter and exit from this house every day.

Qin Kai was standing not far from the house at this time, and Zhou Ruidong was standing straight behind him, but Zhang Kui and the others were leaning on the wheels of the carriage, or hiding in the shade of a tree, and turned to ask a guide in front, "This is Na Luo Shou's home?" ”

"Yes, my lord, this Luo Shou's ancestral residence is here, his ancestor was the imperial doctor of the court, and later because he was implicated and returned to his hometown, he only practiced medicine in his hometown, there are many poor people in this small place, and the consultation fee that can be paid is not much, so it is slowly defeated!" ,

Qin Kai was quite satisfied in his heart, he asked the He family to help explore the famous doctors in Fuzhou Mansion, and he went to visit a few of them in the past few days, under the banner of the governor, plus the slogan of helping the people and saving people, several local famous doctors have promised to arrange a few days a month to their clinic for free treatment, and this Luo Shou is also in the He family's recommended list.

Walking into the house, the inside is quite large, but the old house is indeed in disrepair, everywhere is significantly damaged, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl is leading five or six apprentice-like people to dry herbs on the side of the large courtyard, and on the right at the door of a fairly neat tiled house, a middle-aged man in a green coat and a horse coat is taking the pulse of an old man.

Qin Kai saw a big stone next to him, so he sat down with peace of mind, while observing the patients coming and going in the courtyard, this middle-aged man had already finished treating seven or eight patients in a while, obviously he also saw this young official who had just walked in, said hello to a patient who was seeking treatment, and walked up.

There was a faint trace of sadness on the middle-aged man's face, and his appearance was very thoughtful, and he asked in a calm tone, "This adult, is you here today to ask for a doctor or a doctor?" ”

Qin Kai got up unhurriedly and returned the salute, "You are Luo Shou, right?" ”

"It's down there, what do you call your lordship?"

"I'm Qin Kai, the political secretary of Fuzhou, and I'm not here today to seek medical treatment or ask for medicine, but I want to ask Mr. for other important things? Sir, let's consult these patients first, I'll wait," Qin Kai didn't say what he meant directly, but this gesture was naturally sufficient.

"Oh......" Luo Shou was obviously a little confused, it was not for nothing that this official came to seek medical advice, but most of them were drunk and called, today this is very strange, how can there be such an official in the Qing Dynasty! He bowed and went back to consult on the remaining patients.

Qin Kai stood up and came to the important girl who was drying next to him, he was idle at this time anyway, so he put on the words of the little girl first, "This girl, how do you call it?" ”

"My lord, in Xia Luo Qing'er, my father is Luo Shou," the little girl's vigilant eyes swept over Qin Kai, bowed her head and continued to sit on the work in her hand.

"These herbs were picked from the nearby mountains?" Qin Kai is thick-skinned anyway, and people ignore him, so he has nothing to say.

"Yes, sir!"

"Is it enough for the people around here to see a doctor? How is the consultation fee charged? Qin Kai went around the routine.

"It's all from the villagers, if you look at it, send some rice, noodles and vegetables, now there is not much money left at home, but fortunately, this herb is not worth much," the little girl looks like a clear eyebrow, her complexion is like snow, and there is a small dimple on her goose egg face, which is quite Lori's true color, but the overall look is thin.

"Miss Luo, you must have learned your father's medical skills too! Today I want to invite your father to go out of the mountain and provide free medical treatment for the people, which is a great thing for the country and the people," Qin Kai is also idle, and he picks up the small one first.

Luo Qing'er glanced up at the old man, and naturally felt very disdainful in his heart, when I was a three-year-old child, he lied to me with such big words, "Lord Qin, do I have a sentence that is not worth saying?" ”

"Say!" Qin Kai had a righteous face.

"Of course, it's a good thing to provide free medical treatment for the people, but the doctor can't even eat his stomach, so what can he take to the free clinic? You see that my family has been a doctor for four generations, but now my family is surrounded by four walls! My mother is tired all year round and is also sick in bed, my father has treated so many patients, but there is no medicine to treat my mother......" Luo Qing'er said, her voice became lower and lower, and her beautiful big eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

Qin Kai was also stunned when he heard this, it was indeed sad enough to do this as a doctor, "Miss Luo, I don't know what kind of illness it is?" ”

"What's the use of talking to you", the little girl paused and answered his question, "My father said, my heart is not in order, and I can only recuperate!" ”

Most of this thing sounds like heart disease and high blood pressure, how can it be similar to Old Man Ding's symptoms, Qin Kai has one more calculation in his heart to convince this Luo Shou.

"Miss Luo, don't you know, now in addition to Chinese medicine, there are also Western medical skills, I have a German doctor with me, who has diagnosed and treated the governor, this disease is somewhat similar to your mother, if your father is willing, you can do a diagnosis and treatment for your mother!"

"Western doctor? No, no, no," Luo Qing'er is obviously quite jealous and disgusted with Western medicine and foreigners, high-headed, I heard that foreigners are all big villains who deceived Chinese children to make cakes to eat, and there have also been Westerners in this town, and those corrupt officials are all poked and scolded by the people in the back. ,

Qin Kai laughed, and talked to the little girl without a match, and finally waited until Luo Shou had cured all the patients, and Luo Qing'er hurriedly ran over and relayed Qin Kai's words.

Obviously, Luo Shou was also quite surprised, and came forward to sit down on the stone bench and asked, "Lord Qin, why are you here today?" What you just told the pediatric doctor is a cure for the symptoms? ”

"The doctor is benevolent, Mr. Luo lives up to this name, and I admire it very much! It's just that I don't know if Mr. Luo is willing to work in the cooked pharmacy under the next office, I know that your wife seems to have heartache, and I won't tell you that my cooked pharmacy is making a symptomatic medicine, which may be able to alleviate your wife's illness. ”

"I've searched all over the ancient books of Chinese medicine and there is no special medicine, I don't know what kind of method you use for this medicine?" As an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner, Luo Shou is naturally very familiar with traditional Chinese medicine, and he listened to Qin Kai's vow to develop new medicines, but he didn't believe it.

"Mr. Luo only knows Chinese medicine, but he doesn't know Western medicine, but what I have developed this time is a secret medicine made by integrating Chinese and Western medicine" After that, Qin Kai took out a pencil and wrote down a page of letterhead and handed it over, with the names of more than ten herbs written on it, as well as one or two chemical terms.

Luo Shou looked at the Chinese medicines, Chuanxiong, Borneol, and some Chinese medicines were indeed symptomatic medicines, but the other Western medicines didn't know what they did, and he was about to ask, Qin Kai had already said it.

"The other is Western medicine**, which is used in the West to relieve heartache, Mr. Luo, you think about it, if you are interested in doing something great to help the people and save the people, you can come to Fuzhou Jimin Pharmacy!"

Although Luo Shou did not respond immediately, Qin Kai had already seen what he meant from the other party's excited eyes, he left a contract, said goodbye, and went to a pharmacy in the town, where he ordered a few tonics for the store to send to Luo's house immediately.

Zhang Kuimei, who followed behind, danced next to Zhou Ruidong and muttered, "How can the instructor act like an instigator today, take the words of other people's little girls, and talk about other people's families, I think this surnamed Luo must have been trapped, and obediently fell into the instructor's claws!" ”

Zhou Ruidong didn't think about it, and replied, "If it were you, what would you do?" ”

"It's not more effective than this method, but I'll tell you surnamed Luo, I don't know if this medicine is effective, it's like Instructor Qin, let's deceive the boat first!" Zhang Kui has no awareness of saying bad things about people behind his back, and his voice is really not small.

"Zhang Kui, you are questioning your instructor's judgment again, I will conclude that this medicine must be effective, do you have any kind of bet with me?" Qin Kai had already heard this guy's deliberate questioning, Zhang Kui's questioning was indeed correct under normal circumstances, but who let us cross over, bet with me that it would be ironclad.

"Okay, okay, instructor, then I'll bet...... It definitely works! Zhang Kui shouted loudly, causing everyone to laugh.

Back in Fuzhou, Qin Kai went to see Ding Richang, one was to ask him to write the brand of Jimin Pharmacy, and the other was to ask him to serve as the honorary director of the pharmacy.

Hearing that Qin Kai was going to open a free clinic, this made Ding Richang a little depressed, this kid came with so much money, and he didn't even allocate the iron material for the artillery bureau here, but he didn't bother to care about this, the artillery bureau is operating normally now, and now it is a big thing to help the people, which is a great thing for the public and the people, Qin Kai wants to borrow his own brand, let him borrow it.

Two days later, Luo Shou appeared at the pharmacy with two apprentices, they were quickly taken to Qin Kai, and Dr. David was also called, he had been joining Qin Kai's team for a long time, and this time he finally found that this wise Lord Qin was ready to fulfill his promise to himself.

Qin Kai took out an agreement, Luo Shou will be paid 30 taels of silver per month from then on, of course, in addition to this high salary, there is a high-intensity work, a formula marked "quick-acting heart pill" was handed over to him, David needs to cooperate with him, and he will organize the people of the familiar medicine shop to try to make the pills, and the raw materials of Western medicine have already been purchased by Wu Jingui from Guangzhou.

He has been setting up stalls everywhere during this time, to be honest, this reminds him of the blind expansion that often occurs in the business of later generations, and finally collapses, and now it has a little bit of that taste, fortunately, all business activities are made by the He family to do his best for him, which makes him deeply grateful to He Xing again.

This familiar pharmacy is a big cover that he launched, as a good thing to facilitate the people, this will naturally get the strong support of Ding Richang, and hidden behind it, it is indeed Qin Kai's low-key layout, this qiē did not attract anyone's attention, and even the He family, who will be directly responsible for the operation, did not find the secret.

A few days later, when an excerpt on the impeachment of Qin Kai was handed to the desk of the attached governor Wenshan, Qin Kai still did not know that he was discussing an extremely important matter with He Xing, Sun Fu, Xu Guofang, and Wu Yun in the artillery bureau.
