Chapter 1141: An Increase in Wounded Soldiers
Early the next morning, a man from the 'Holy Hand Hall' came to work early, and when he passed by Yonghe Hall, he saw an incredible scene. The door of the 'Yonghe Hall' was also opened, and someone was hanging a pair of wooden couplets on the left and right of the door, which read:
"Wonderful hand diagnosis, gold and silver. β
"Miraculous medicine to cure the disease. β
The banner is a plaque of 'Eiwado'.
"It's good-looking now, I'll quickly tell the shopkeeper, ha!" It happened that this guy knew some words, and immediately quickened his pace, and when he arrived at the 'Holy Hand Hall', the yawning shopkeeper Xu was washing inside. The guy will see the hanging couplet of 'Yonghetang', and the shopkeeper Xu suddenly sobered up and felt unbelievable.
"Is that really the case?"
"The shopkeeper is true! The little one doesn't dare to lie to you!"
The guy hurriedly swore a poisonous oath, and the shopkeeper Xu laughed and said contemptuously: "It's really self-defeating!"
"Yes, the heads of the people in Yonghetang don't know how to grow, and it is estimated that they will have to close the door in a few days!" the man echoed.
"By the way, does the second shopkeeper know?"
"Little one only remembers you, you'll be here as soon as you come backβ"
"Very good, you are clever in this matter, and you work hard!"
The guy happily went to the front office to do something.
Shopkeeper Xu was very satisfied when he saw that the guys' steps were a little brisk. There is also competition between guys, which is a good thing, at least they will not join forces to pit themselves. Even the relationship between himself and the second shopkeeper is also a competitive relationship. After all, this 'Holy Hand Hall' is not his, but the owner trusts him more.
"Old Hu, morning!"
ββββ
"Shopkeeper, morning!"
"Doctor Hu, morning!"
ββββ
In the front hall, Old Doctor Hu and Little Doctor Hu both arrived and faced the greetings of Shopkeeper Xu. Old Dr. Hu sat still, closed his eyes and was taking the patient's pulse, but he didn't respond at all, and Dr. Hu got up upside down to respond. Shopkeeper Xu didn't care. Dr. Hu's qualifications are there, he has practiced medicine for decades, and there are countless living people. Even when I arrived at the host's house, I was also a guest. It can be said that this 'Holy Hand Hall' has today's status, and it depends a lot on Dr. Hu.
The second shopkeeper Zhou Qian also arrived and was looking at the account book. However, the second treasurer of this ledger can only supervise, not interfere. Shopkeeper Xu didn't care when he saw it.
"Zhou Qian, I went to 'Yonghetang' yesterday to post, and I saw that person?"
The second shopkeeper Zhou Qian hurriedly put down the account book. said: "I haven't seen it, it seems to have gone out." β
"Big shopkeeper, why don't I go and take a look?"
"Hehe, no, I'll go out for a walk!"
The second shopkeeper was a little puzzled when he saw that he was in a good mood and went out. Could it be that something good has happened?
"Doctor, come out quickly!"
"Wounded soldiers, another batch of wounded soldiers on the front line has arrived!"
"This is assigned to the Church of the Holy Hand. It seems to be a lot more than half a month ago!"
"Well, I don't know what happened to the border. β
ββββ
There was an uproar outside the Sacred Hand Church. But hearing the unscrupulous voice, the shopkeeper and Dr. Hu couldn't calm down on Tuesday, and hurriedly put down the people who were treated and went out to greet them.
There were more than a dozen carriages outside the Sacred Hand Hall, and the carriages were crowded with wounded people with swords and gunshot wounds. Basically, they were all traumatic injuries, all of which had been preliminarily bandaged, and there were dozens of people.
Tuesday's shopkeeper was shocked when he saw it: "My lord, why are there so many people in this batch?
Leading the team was a school captain. The temper is not good, and when he heard the words, he shouted: "Less verbose, there are more in other medicine halls, why don't you heal quickly?!"
"Okay, okay, heal right away!"
On Tuesday, the shopkeeper was startled by the drink, and he was anxious and helpless, and he was so bitter that he might have an accident this time. The hardest thing to mess with the patients is these front-line sergeants, all of whom are short-tempered, and the county government has clearly ordered that priority must be given to treating the wounded on the front line. However, there was always someone who died in each batch of wounded, putting the medicine hall under tremendous pressure. If more people die at one time, what are the consequences?
Tuesday the shopkeeper shuddered, and eagerly prayed that the big shopkeeper would come back soon, but he couldn't hold it back.
Medical conditions in this era were not so high.
Just in terms of anti-inflammatory and debridement, there are many people who die from infection. Yaotang can only say that he will do his best, and he does not dare to guarantee that he will be cured.
On Tuesday, the shopkeeper didn't dare to delay, and in addition to commanding everyone in the medicine hall, he also started to help
In front of Yonghe Hall, the door opened, but it was deserted.
At this moment, I saw a middle-aged man in the medicine hall sprinkling water and sweeping the floor, bored.
The shopkeeper Xu Da approached and took a look, the inside of Yonghe Hall was not small, and the furnishings were simple, but there was no patient, and there was no doctor in sight.
Zhao Gongjian didn't know Xu Da's shopkeeper, thinking that he was coming to see a doctor, so he hurriedly came over to greet him.
"See a doctor?"
ββββ
"Looking for someone?"
ββββ
The shopkeeper Xu didn't answer, just looked at the couplet in front of the door, smiling.
Zhao Gongjian frowned, looking at the five people wearing this person, could it be that there is something wrong with his head?
"If you don't see a doctor, go far, don't block the door!" Zhao Gongjian was angry.
"Hah, it's interesting!"
The shopkeeper Xu finally spoke up, answered the question, and turned around and walked away with a satisfied face.
"Sick!" Zhao Gongjian scolded and went to sprinkle water and sweep the floor again.
Although 'Yonghetang' has no business, there is often windy weather at the border, and the county town does not pay attention to hygiene, no matter inside and outside, it has to be sprinkled many times a day, and even dense bamboo curtains are hung at the gate, so all these chores naturally have to be done by Zhao Gongji.
Whether he was sick or not, the shopkeeper Xu was in a good mood, and saw that there was a wonton stall next to him, and an old couple was busy, and they didn't have breakfast yet, so they walked over.
"The doctors of the Holy Hand Hall and the Jishi Hall only charge 10 copper coins for a diagnosis, and the medicine is counted separately. The pharmacy wants to make money, and it mostly makes profits in medicine. Yonghetang charges a hundred times the consultation fee, and this alone will stop the patients, and I am afraid that the medicine will not be cheap, and Dongjie is a 'poor' area!"
The 'Holy Hand Hall' and 'Jishi Hall' on East Street are also civilians, and their profits are far less than those of the medicine halls on the other three busy streets. 'Yonghetang' suddenly squeezed into East Street, which naturally caused the exclusion and dissatisfaction of the two families. Now, the two families have not started yet, but are just exploring the truth and reality. But I don't want Yonghetang to set the rules of 'stupidity' by himself.
This naturally made the shopkeeper Xu Da breathe a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but despise Yonghetang.
"Old man, a big bowl of wontons, add more broth!" Xu Da shopkeeper was happy, and his voice was a lot happier.
"Shopkeeper Xu, wait a minute, it'll be fine right away!" the old man responded.
"Shopkeeper Xu is also coming to eat wontons?"
"Master Xu, it's early-"
"Morning!"
ββββ
There were three or four people in the stalls. It seems that no one doesn't know the big shopkeeper Xu and says hello one after another. The shopkeeper Xu Da may be in a good mood, and nodded in response with a smile, which made several people a little flattered, and even the conversation was much lower.
Listening closely, they were talking about 'Yonghetang' and were very curious, but they ignored the couplets of 'Yonghetang'. Shopkeeper Xu's brows quickly relaxed, and he saw that these people were just civilians from East Street. Five big and three rough, do manual work, earn hard money, but don't know a single big word.
"Untouchables!"
"White has a pair of eyes!"
"Okay, the shopkeeper is in a good mood today, so I'll interpret it for you and guarantee that Yonghetang will become famous in one fell swoop!"
When the shopkeeper Xu Da had an idea in his heart, he had a calculating or not. successfully intervened in the topic, and naturally led to the rules of 'Yonghetang'. This time. Sure enough, it detonated everyone's emotions, and they rebuked and dissatisfied with 'Yonghetang'.
"It's too dark! The consultation fee is only 1 silver coin, which is enough for my expenses for two months!"
"That is, it is still the 'Holy Hand Hall' and 'Jishitang' are benevolent!"
"I won't go to Yonghetang in the future, see how long it can be opened!"
"Let more people know about this, and we can't let everyone be fooled. Suffer!"
"That's it!"
ββββ
The shopkeeper Xu Da was happy, dropped a dozen copper coins and left. In a few days, it is estimated that the people in the entire county will know the name of 'Yonghetang', which can be regarded as famous, but it is notoriety. The person who opened the pharmacy. I am most afraid of a bad reputation, once the reputation is bad, the business will naturally plummet, and it is not easy to redeem it
"The shopkeeper of the Holy Hand Hall?"
Not long after, a few people on the wonton stall finished eating and left, and there was no business for a while, but there was still a young man sitting, it was Zhang Weidong.
He naturally understood the bad intentions of the shopkeeper Xu just now, but he just smiled and didn't care.
Medicine doctors do not die of diseases, and medicine doctors are destined to be people.
Yonghetang is just a pastime to make some rich people's money to supplement the family, and he doesn't want to really keep his busy feet from touching the ground, which is contrary to the original intention. He still likes to be quiet.
"Collect the money!"
"Have you eaten your guests?"
"The ravioli is good, it tastes good, the soup is delicious, and the portions are full!"
"That's good, take 15 copper coinsβ"
Zhang Weidong wiped his mouth, paid the money, and walked back to Yonghetang. There is a wonton stall in front of the door, which is convenient for breakfast. The adults in the small manor are accustomed to the old high wonton stalls, one bowl a day, while the children drink porridge and eat egg custard to grow up healthy and strong.
All the people had eaten, and he was the latest.
"The master is backβ"
"There should be more than a dozen vats in the medicine hall and manor, and the weather is a little dry, so the ground should be sprinkled with more water. Zhang Weidong looked at it and instructed.
Zhao bowed and arrowed, turned around and reported to his wife, and took the money to buy it. There is a well in the small manor, which is closed, relatively safe and clean, but there is no shortage of water.
"By the way, sir, a strange man came just now, maybe there was something wrong with his head, and he stood in front of our door for a moment, just looking at the couplet, babbling nonsense-"
"Oh, I know, that person is the shopkeeper of the 'Holy Hand Hall', probably to see the joke!" Zhang Weidong said with a smile.
Xu Da's shopkeeper's drama in front of 'Yonghetang', how could Zhang Weidong not see it?
Zhao Gongjian suddenly said: "It turned out to be the shopkeeper of the Holy Hand Hall, and he really had bad intentions, if he came back next time, I would let him go!"
Zhang Weidong smiled, returned to the table, picked up a medical book and read it. Familiarity with pharmacology is only secondary, but clarity of medicinal materials and medicinal properties is the most important
On the other hand, the shopkeeper Xu walked back to the 'Holy Hand Hall', and was shocked when he saw so many military carriages, sergeants, and wounded people waiting outside from a distance.
"What's bad, why are there so many injured people?" (To be continued.) )
