Chapter 324: Distress Signal

After Qingzhi dismounted, Chen Zhuo followed closely and did not leave an inch.

After Qingzhi dismounted, he kept looking ahead and walked forward, but Chen Zhuo looked left and right to watch out for something.

That's how the guy at the pharmacy window watched the two of them come forward one after the other.

"Little brother, let's buy some medicine." Aoeda said to the bored guy sitting at the window.

The guy raised his thick eyebrows and said, "What medicine to buy?" ”

Qingzhi said: "I want to buy twenty bags of loose stone soup, in each bag, one coin of magnolia, two coins of Jishi, one coin of Shenqu, three coins of malt, one coin of chicken inner gold, one coin of betel nut, one coin of three ridges, one coin of curcuma, one coin of peach kernel, half a coin of salvia, one coin of Yuanhu, one coin of white peony, two coins of licorice, half a coin of half a summer, and one coin of Zhuru." ”

The guy said, "I can't remember, you write a recipe." ”

Qingzhi said: "Then please bring the pen and paper." ”

The pharmacy guy then pushed the pen and paper in his hand to the green branch and said, "Write." ”

Aoeda picked up a pen and paper and began to write on paper.

While she was writing, Chen Zhuo was watching from her side, as if he was on guard against what kind of code she wrote for help.

She wrote the prescription honestly, and while she was writing the prescription, the pharmacy guy asked, "Brother, you are so familiar with the prescription, you are a doctor yourself, right?" ”

In the past, there were also patients who came here to buy medicine directly, but they were all holding folded papers, and when they came to the window, they all spread the paper on the table first, and then let him take the medicine according to the prescription.

He had never seen a patient or a patient's family member who could completely memorize the prescription himself.

As a result, he speculated that he was a doctor himself.

Qingzhi replied to him: "Well, I am indeed a doctor, and I am helping patients get medicine." ”

When she said this, a trace of vigilance flashed in Chen Zhuo's eyes.

When the time comes, if the soldiers sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come here to inquire, Qingzhi's words will undoubtedly be a signal.

However, he couldn't tell her what he could and couldn't say in this situation, so he had to be silent.

The pharmacy guy let out an "oh" and stopped talking, but hummed a little tune.

Qingzhi was still writing the prescription, and asked the pharmacy guy at this time, "Why didn't you run away at such a young age?" ”

The pharmacy guy said, "My husband said that if I also flee, I will come back in the future, and I will no longer be needed in this pharmacy." ”

"Where's your husband? Why did he flee on his own? But you're here? ”

The pharmacy guy said: "Of course he didn't run away, he said that as a doctor, he couldn't leave." Now he's gone to eat, and I'm here to watch. ”

The fellow finished his sentence and began to hum a little tune.

Qingzhi said: "If your husband comes back, please tell your husband that a doctor surnamed Kong said that your husband is a good person." ”

Her obviously suggestive words made Chen Zhuo glance at her. He realized that she had said this on purpose.

He knew that as long as he came to town and let her come into contact with people, there would definitely be risks.

But at the moment, he can't do anything, and any reaction now will make the pharmacy guy suspicious.

He impatiently urged Qingzhi and said, "Have you finished writing?" Why is it so slow? ”

Aoeda was deliberately slow to write, because only then would she have the opportunity to chat with this pharmacy guy for a while.

She said to him, "What's the hurry? This dissipating stone soup is indeed complex in composition. And maybe this prescription will let the old man continue to use it in the future, if the medicine we bought back is not enough, won't he have to buy it himself? So, I had to be able to write every word clearly. ”

"It's a good habit." The pharmacy guy said and glanced at Qingzhi's words, "I can't tell what is written by doctors, sometimes I can't distinguish what is written, sometimes I can't distinguish it for a long time, and I still can't distinguish it, and I have to ask the patient or the patient's family to take it back and ask those doctors and come back again, which will cause a net delay." ”

Qingzhi said: "Isn't it? There were always many doctors who thought that everyone could read his handwriting. ”

The pharmacy guy said, "That's because they have precious time and can only write in cursive as quickly as they can." Their time is saved, but other people's time is delayed. ”

"My father is the kind of doctor who writes neatly, so his patients don't need to waste more time. ”

"Your father is also a doctor?" The pharmacy guy asked in surprise, and after he finished speaking, he felt that he was a little surprised and a little inexplicable, it is too common for the son to pass on the father's business in the doctor's business.

"Yes, he also has the surname Kong."

The pharmacy guy laughed, "Aren't you talking nonsense?" Your surname is Kong, and he himself is surnamed Kong. ”

He didn't pay much attention to Qingzhi just now when he said that his surname was Kong, but now his nonsense made him remember clearly, the doctor in front of him was surnamed Kong.

Chen Zhuo was even more irritable at this time, and urged Qingzhi again: "Have you finished writing?" Hurry up! ”

The word "hurry up" at the end startled the pharmacy guy, because he suddenly raised his voice several degrees.

The pharmacy guy said to Qingzhi, "Your friend is so scary? It's too loud, you need to write faster. ”

Aoeda felt that she had talked about everything, so she wrote faster.

After writing down the prescription, she also wrote down the usage, and the usage was written to the elderly, so that the old man would not know how to take the medicine when he came to get the medicine himself.

The following usage of the recipe is written:

Take it in boiled water, twice a day, for 5 to 7 days, and add or subtract as appropriate. The time of administration is to be taken between meals or on an empty stomach.

After writing it, she handed the prescription to the pharmacy guy and asked him to take the medicine according to the prescription.

The pharmacy guy took her twenty copies of the same herb according to the recipe, and after weighing her, he said to her, "A total of one or twenty dollars." You have magnolia, salvia and banxia in this prescription. Now the price of these three things has increased, because now these three things are going to go a long way. ”

The price increase is also expected by Qingzhi, after all, everything is increasing in price now, even more so than in the past.

Because everything is in trouble when it comes in. Either there are no small houses to make deliveries, or the places where the goods used to be shipped are now closed, or there are so few patients that they have to raise prices to make ends meet.

During the war years, the price of medicine rose as rapidly as the price of goods.

Qingzhi turned his head to Chen Zhuo and said, "Brother Chen, one or two eighty dollars." ”

Chen Zhuo frowned, took out two taels of silver from his sleeve, and said to the pharmacy guy: "Hurry up and find money!" ”

His impatient and impatient look contrasted sharply with Aoeda's relaxed and laid-back expression, which made the pharmacy guys wonder.

The pharmacy guy took out some broken silver from the box containing the money, weighed it, saw that the broken silver was nine coins, took out another twenty copper coins, and pushed the last brain in front of Chen Zhuo, and said, "This master, please take it." ”
