Chapter 218 Rumors are everywhere
Lu Naiguan called the medicine boy and asked the medicine boy to take Mu Jiu to the Lu family's mansion to find the old man.
In the courtyard of Lu's house, Mu Jiu saw Lu Youhuai.
Lu Youhuai looked similar to last time, still so energetic, seeing Mu Jiu coming, he personally welcomed Mu Jiu into the hall, "Please take a seat." Then let the little guy go and make tea.
Seeing Mu Jiu, Lu Youhuai was very happy, "Doctor Mu, I thought you had forgotten my old man." "
"How can it, I've been so busy lately that I don't have time, I wanted to find a free day to visit a little more officially, but I didn't expect something to happen, so I came so-so."
Lu Youhuai stroked his silver-white beard, "Hey, what are you talking about, the Lu family welcomes you at any time, what are you busy with!"
"I'm busy, I came to the door today, I have something to discuss with Dr. Lu."
"Oh? What's going on?"
Mu Jiu glanced at Lu Youhuai's little servant, and the news of smallpox could not be spread for the time being, otherwise it would cause panic.
Lu Youhuai waved his hand to let the little guy go down.
Mu Jiu whispered, "I found out that two children had smallpox. "
"What!" Lu Youhuai almost fell off the chair, "How can this be good!"
"Don't hide it from Dr. Lu, I have a way to treat smallpox, but I want to leave it to Dr. Lu to do it." She can't come forward for the time being, otherwise, once the matter reaches the capital, Yan Ruyu will definitely be suspicious.
Now she is not strong enough to compete with Yan Ruyu.
It's good to be brave, and it's a reckless man to be too brave and desperate.
"But this ......" Thinking of the last time Mu Jiu gave away medicine for free, Lu Youhuai didn't suspect that Mu Jiu was lying, but he had lived all his life, and it was the first time he had heard that someone wanted to push the credit out.
Mu Jiu smiled bitterly, "I have a last resort and can't be famous, Doctor Lu can believe me or not." "
"Faith! Absolutely!" Lu Youhuai said without thinking, "But I'm afraid that I'm old and have limited abilities and can't control it." "
"Dr. Lu is modest, looking at the entire Qizhou City, except for Dr. Lu, no one can do this, Dr. Li and Dr. Wang only think about making money, but Dr. Lu has a heart to help the world."
"It's been awarded, it's been awarded, Dr. Mu looks up to my old man too much, and my old man will never give up."
In fact, Lu Youhuai was so excited that his fingers were trembling, but he tried his best to restrain himself from pretending to be calm.
If the treatment of smallpox can really be cured, people will no longer talk about smallpox in the future, and so many people will not die because of smallpox!
Even if the method of treating smallpox was not invented by their Lu family, the Lu family will be famous in history in the future!
Mu Jiu said with a smile, "How can it be so serious, but before this incident breaks out, we have to store enough medicinal materials to prevent anyone from wanting to make a fortune." "
Speaking of disaster wealth, Lu Youhuai was deeply touched, "Forget what year, paratyphoid fever broke out in Qizhou, those unscrupulous pharmacists took the opportunity to raise the price of medicine, many poor people have no money for treatment, they can only resign themselves to fate, our Lu family's medicinal materials are limited, distressed but there is no way, many people can't survive, corpses are everywhere!"
Mu Jiu has lived in the capital since he was a child, and he has never experienced such a thing, but he always hears his grandfather talk about the battlefield, the plague, and the death of many innocent people, but he can also empathize.
"So we have to take advantage of the fact that before the matter breaks out, we have already bought up all the inventory of the pharmaceutical company, and now it is up to Dr. Lu's medical family."
"In that case, I'll do it right away." Without delay, Dr. Lu immediately got up.
"Wait." Mu Jiu took out the recipe and precautions she had written overnight, "There is no guarantee that it will be foolproof, but the mortality rate will be much lower." "
Doctor Lu's hand shaking after taking the prescription was undecent, his eyes were red, and he was full of tears, "Two years ago, I heard that Imperial Doctor Mu in the capital had developed a method to treat smallpox, but it never reached us......
Doctor Lu looked at Mu Jiu incredulously, "Could it be ......" Mu Jiu is from the Mu family!
Mu Jiu shook his head, "Dozens of Imperial Doctor Mu's family were killed overnight, I'm just a little girl in a small mountain village in the border city, don't think about it too much." "
Lu Youhuai heard what he meant, and suddenly understood, "The old man understands, but he just wronged Doctor Mu." In the future, I will bite to death, this is a method invented by the Lu family. Only in this way can Mu Jiu's safety be protected, and he can only covet this merit with his conscience.
"It's so decided, if you can, I hope Dr. Lu will pass on this recipe."
"I, Lu Youhuai, swear that the method of treating smallpox will never be hidden, and if it is violated, it will not be a good death, and the children will be cut off!"
With such a heavy oath, Mu Jiu was shocked, and at the same time glad that he had not found the wrong person.
After saying that, Lu Youhuai hurriedly went to his medicinal material supplier and bought all the medicinal materials on the list, the embarrassing thing was that he didn't have enough money, and he had found a good friend for many years, and he borrowed everything he could, but it was still not enough, so he had to discuss with Mu Jiu.
Mu Jiu looked at Lin Changsheng, and Lin Changsheng called Zero One and asked him to follow Lu Youhuai to buy medicinal herbs.
Everything was in full swing, and on the third day, smallpox was first discovered in a Qinglou in Qizhou.
Yan Shisong immediately sent someone to seal the Qinglou, however, the Qinglou was sealed, and the child of a dart master of a dart bureau suffered from smallpox.
In just half a day, smallpox was like a ghost, and it seemed to spread to the entire Qizhou City at once.
Yan Shisong evacuated his family and children to the countryside, Yan Shiliang also ran away, and some people who got the news in the morning also ran away, and when the large-scale outbreak broke out in the afternoon, Yan Shisong had already ordered the city to be closed, and many people wanted to run, but couldn't run out.
For a time, every house closed its door, everyone was in danger, and even some hospitals were closed, and only a few hospitals were still open to treat children suffering from smallpox.
Mu Jiu asked Mu to write down those medical halls, and asked Lu Youhuai to send an invitation in the name of the Lu family, asking them to go to the Lu family at night to discuss countermeasures.
This incident alarmed Yan Shisong, and he also rushed to the Lu family's mansion overnight, "Doctor Lu, you are the most respected doctor in our Qizhou City, I hope you can come up with a good way to do this!"
Lu Youhuai didn't dare to take Qiao, so he took the opportunity to take out a re-copied method for treating smallpox, "My lord, this is a method that the grass people inadvertently obtained, which can effectively control and treat smallpox, and now the grass people are willing to donate it, so that the doctors who come here can learn it." "
Hearing that there was a way, and the selfless teaching was spread, Yan Shisong was so excited that he burned incense and worshiped the Buddha, but the problem came, the medicine company had increased the price of medicinal materials by two times, and many people had no money to catch medicine.
This time, Yan Shisong was dumbfounded, as if he didn't see it.
Because, the pharmacist will have his share!
For this reason, Lu Mujiu re-invited the drama troupe to publicize them on the streets and alleys, the price of medicinal materials in Lu's medical hall remained unchanged, and those who really couldn't come up with the money could make an IOU, and pay it back when they had money.
Lu Youhuai educated his two sons very well, although he may not be able to recover the money for buying medicinal materials, he is still willing to treat the disease first and then give the money, and even, after learning that some people really can't come up with the money, he is willing to take the initiative to waive their medicine money.
Mu Jiu couldn't lose all of them, so he sold half of the medicinal materials he had hoarded before and gave them to the Lu family, asking them to bother to take care of those civilians who had no money to be treated.
Dr. Li and Dr. Wang were among the doctors who closed the door early, and when they heard that Lu Youhuai taught many doctors who did not close the door to treat smallpox, they licked their faces and came to the door, hoping that Lu Youhuai would also teach them to treat smallpox.
Lu Youhuai is a lot older, he has been so busy these days, he doesn't even have time to rest, he is too tired to work, he looks older, he knows the virtues of these two people, how can he teach them and directly blast people out.
Dr. Li and Dr. Wang refused to give up, and stood at the gate of Lu's Medical Center, and when they saw people, they said that Lu Youhuai had already monopolized medicinal materials, so that they had no medicine to treat patients.
The world is so big, there are always some people who are shameless and have no lower limit.
Lu angrily pulled a child with smallpox to them, "If you don't want to be infected, get out of me!"
Qizhou City is so big, and many people who came for treatment knew Lu Youhuai, Dr. Li, and Dr. Wang, and they all stood up and scolded the two.
The two left the Lu Medical Center in a gloomy manner, but they refused to give up.
Dr. Li angrily pointed in the direction of Lu's medical hall and scolded, "What's the big deal! You don't teach, some people teach!"
Dr. Wang was also so angry that his nose was smoking, "No, he taught so many people, there are always people who are willing to teach us!"
The two came to the door one by one.
When those doctors who have learned are studying, Lu Youhuai said that when they meet people with noble medical ethics in the future, they can pass on the prescriptions so that more people can have a way to live.
couldn't resist the soft grinding and hard bubbles of Dr. Li and Dr. Wang, and gave them the prescription.
After getting the prescription, Dr. Li and Dr. Wang reopened the door of the medical hall, but the price of medicinal materials was also raised to two and a half times, and they did not forget to publicize everywhere that this was the result of the shortage of medicinal materials caused by the Lu family's early purchase of medicinal materials.
Originally, everyone went to Lu's Medical Center, but there were more people in line, and some people couldn't wait to go to Li's Medical Center and Wang's Medical Center, which were less crowded, and many people believed Dr. Li and Dr. Wang's words.
Even, some people rumored that this disaster was created by the Lu family, otherwise how could they know how to hoard medicinal materials in advance? Others don't understand? Otherwise, how can they have a cure that others don't have?
What teaches everyone for free is just a fame and reputation.
Originally, many people didn't believe it, but if you talk too much, someone will always believe it.
One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, no one in the Lu family came out to explain anything, and more people believed it!
Lu House.
The lights flickered.
Lu Youhuai and his two sons finished a busy day and could finally go home to rest.
Lu Naiguan lay on the chair, and his wife Lu Zhoushi brought hot water and personally helped him wash his face.
The youngest son, Lu Naiji, lay on another chair without an image, "Dad, we won't be able to support it if we continue like this." "
The youngest daughter-in-law, Lu Wu, was also distressed and called hot water, washed her husband's face and wiped the water, and couldn't help sighing, "Xianggong, sometimes I really don't understand what you are trying to do." "
"What's wrong?" The three fathers and sons of the Lu family are so busy that they still don't know what they are like outside!
