Chapter 401 - Payment of Medicine

Chen Mu and the others were guarding outside the courtyard, Chen Mu rode on a horse and watched coldly, seeing that the young man crossed the courtyard wall and arched his hand to himself, Chen Mu waved his hand indifferently.

He had people surround the courtyard, and in order not to alarm the people on the outskirts of the courtyard, he hid his guards for the time being.

Fearing that the young man would take advantage of this opportunity to escape, he sat on his horse and did not dismount, and the courtyard of the young man's house was quite simple, with low walls, not even more than a man high.

He could easily see the scene in the courtyard while sitting on the horse, although he didn't know what a few people said, but seeing that the panicked look on the face of the young man in white had calmed down a little, Chen Mu nodded silently.

He secretly thought in his heart that there was nothing wrong with the grandmother of the young man in white, and when he was thinking about it, he saw a doctor with a mustache come out of the room.

The doctor walked up to the young man in white and said a few words, then took out a prescription from his bosom and handed it to the young man.

Seeing this, the young man frowned, took the prescription, and a slight look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

When the sister-in-law of the Zhao family saw him like this, she glanced at Zhao Fang, and when Zhao Fang saw this, she immediately came back to her senses and hurriedly touched her purse.

He poured out all the money in his purse and handed it to the doctor, who sighed helplessly.

"This bit of silver is not even enough for the consultation, let alone dispensing medicine, the Liu family boy, you have just been driven away as a weaver, and you haven't left any silver in your hand?"

"Your grandmother has a serious heart disease, and medicine is expensive, if you don't find a suitable job to do......"

"Alas, I won't say much nonsense, you just have to know it yourself, as for the consultation fee this time, and I won't charge the medicine fee, it's for the sake of you being my neighbor."

"It's just that next time if there is such a situation, I won't be able to help, after all, I also have to make ends meet, and the medicine for heart disease is really expensive."

The doctor's face sighed with emotion, the boy of the Liu family heard the doctor say, his eyes were red, he gritted his teeth, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a voice behind him.

"How much silver?"

The kid from the Liu family was stunned, turned his head to look behind him, and saw Chen Mu standing behind him, looking at the doctor quietly.

The kid of the Liu family had weak legs and almost fell to his knees again, he still remembered the identities of these people, and this one in front of him must be a big man.

When he had just been arrested and entered the research office, he saw that the adults in the research office were all extremely respectful when talking to the young man in front of him.

This man's status must be above those adults.

Most of them are descendants of a noble family in Beijing, and they may also be people in high positions.

You can be in a high position at such a young age......

Several thoughts flashed through the young man's mind, the doctor didn't know Chen Mu's identity, and seeing that the young man was noble and approachable, the doctor thought about it for a while and said calmly.

"This ...... The amount of this silver is not much, and it costs twenty taels. ”

"Two taels of them are my consultation fees, and the rest are medicine fees, I said, the medicine needed for the heart disease of this Liu kid's grandmother is extremely expensive."

"Because this Liu family kid is a textile craftsman, he is also a bit famous in our capital, and there are many dignitaries and nobles who invite him to weave, so he can save some silver to see his grandmother before."

"But because of the recent period, what kind of textile equipment has the person above suddenly launched? This kid of the Liu family had less business on hand, and the people of the big families who used to hire him directly drove him out of their shops. ”

"He doesn't have any work to do now, his whole body is related to the weaving, and he doesn't have any surplus silver in his hand, and I really can't do it, to be honest, he's already had two credits before......"

This middle-aged man Xu Shi also realized that twenty taels of silver was a lot of money, so when he asked for twenty taels, he also carefully explained the situation of this Liu family boy.

Chen Mu frowned when he heard him say this, it turned out to be a textile craftsman.

In this way, this young man is unemployed at home, he can't earn money, and he has the responsibility to see his grandmother.

Chen Mu sighed secretly in his heart, and with a wave of his hand, he directly took out twenty taels and gave them to the doctor.

The doctor didn't expect Chen Mu to be so generous, he was stunned when he saw Chen Mu handing over the silver, and then took the silver with a look of emotion.

He still secretly thought in his heart, there are many nobles in this capital, but there are only a few who are so generous, looking at the attitude of these young people, maybe he met the boy of the Liu family.

Maybe this kid from the Liu family made friends when he was working for those people from the big family.

"This big man is generous, and it's not in vain that I just wasted my tongue to explain, and I don't blame the Liu family boy for always taking medicine on credit, mainly because this medicinal material is too expensive."

"And I've already given him twenty taels on credit, ordinary people, these twenty taels are enough to spend for two years."

"Alas, but then again, there are many textile craftsmen in the city who are living in difficulty like this Liu family boy, and as soon as the textile equipment is launched, there are many textile craftsmen who have no work to do."

"Either you just go home to farm, or you just find another way out, but those people have been doing this guy all their lives, and they all started learning when they were young, and if they go to do something else, what way out can they have?"

Maybe the doctor saw that Chen Mu was good at talking, so he pulled Chen Mu and said this in a rambling manner.

Chen Mu saw that the boy of the Liu family looked anxious, so he glanced at the young man and asked him to go to the room to check on his grandmother's situation first, while he stayed in the courtyard to chat with the doctor.

He wanted to beat the current situation of his textile craftsmen, but now hearing the doctor say this, Chen Mu's eyes moved, he frowned, and spoke.

"Why is it so difficult? Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince set up a training government to train those textile craftsmen to do other work? It is the one who operates the textile apparatus. ”

"After all, the textile equipment also needs people to operate, and there are two or three, or even three to four people to operate an instrument, and those textile craftsmen can't do it without work."

Hearing Chen Mu say this, the doctor suddenly sighed even more, he approached Chen Mu, and said with a wink.

"Because, many adults have arranged for their families to go there to train the government to learn the ability to operate this equipment."

"After all, those adults have bought textile equipment, and in order to open up income and reduce expenditure, they are naturally more willing to let the family members in their house learn how to operate the textile equipment."

"This way, they don't need to hire people to operate the textile equipment, and they save a lot of money, and they have already spent a lot of money on the textile equipment."
