Chapter 34 Fragrant Little Wontons
Zhang Xingao has more than a dozen shops in the county, and Zhang's ancestor is a real local, at that time he has made a fortune with a few shops in his hand, and he has saved a lot of money from generation to generation, and Zhang Ji's shops are opening more and more.
Zhang Xingao is the landlord of Zhangjiazhuang.
After his father died, the position of the landlord was passed to him, and he asked Zhang Xingao in the county at random, and some people might say that they didn't know him. But as long as you see a six-foot-tall and wealthy man, the people can tell that he is Master Zhang.
Li Erming followed Master Zhang to run errands, striving to attract Master Zhang's reuse.
Today, Zhang Xingao went to various shops in the county to check the accounts on a daily basis, Li Erming mixed with him, treating himself as a subordinate, even if Zhang Xingao took a step, he had to come to help him, and he showed himself diligently.
Not to mention, Zhang Xingao has been rich and noble for generations, and he really likes this feeling of being praised and treated differently.
His fat palm rested on the back of Li Erming's hand and slowly stepped out of the threshold.
Do you want him to go faster? That's impossible, the bloated that has been cultivated over the years, and it takes a long time to walk three steps.
Zhang Xingao is used to squinting at people, when he went south and north, the big people he met looked at his subordinates like this, he felt rare, and he developed a habit when he learned.
"Go to Wanmanlou."
It was also hard to read the account book, and after walking a few shops in a row, he felt that his stomach was empty, and he urgently needed delicacies from the mountains and seas to fill his empty lower abdomen.
Li Erming is very proud, even if he is a current person by the side of Master Zhang, he feels that the scenery is very beautiful. And with Master Zhang, you don't have to worry about no reward, and you can mix some big fish and meat to eat.
"Okay, old man, do you want Zhang Liu to give an order first?"
Zhang Liu is the rightful subordinate of the Zhang family, Li Erming has paid attention to it, and he will do this kind of thing for Master Zhang.
Zhang Xingao smiled, showed a mouth full of gold teeth, pointed at Li Erming and said, "It's still thoughtful." β
Turning his head to Zhang Liu, he commanded, "Zhang Liu, you go first." β
β¦β¦
The county seat is not big, but it is not small.
The two followed each other closely and walked around for an hour and a half, probably looking at all the shops and stalls in the county that opened their doors for a living.
Of course, no matter where it is, it must be a snack stall, with the most restaurants, teahouses, and restaurants.
It's just that Xu Wan didn't expect that there were three medical centers in this small county, and the consultation fee was not cheap.
Xu Wan saw the plaque hanging in the medical hall and walked inside, thinking that Bai's complexion was too pale, and his qi and blood must be insufficient. She wanted to buy some medicinal herbs to replenish qi and blood and bring them back.
After entering the infirmary, she found a spare medicine apprentice and asked.
"Dates, dried longan, angelica, astragalus... How do these sell? β
"Jujube half a catty forty wen, longan dry half a catty fifty-five wen, angelica two two twenty-eight wen, astragalus twenty two thirty-three wen ......"
The medicine apprentice quoted a price fluently and immediately frightened Xu Wan.
This silver is really not spent, she was afraid that the amount would be overspent, so she didn't dare to ask for more, and asked for one or two for each of the above-mentioned reports. Half a tael of silver was found, and a pile of copper plates was retrieved, just as she would buy something to pay the bills later.
Xu Wan stuffed the copper plate into Chu Yuan's chest, he was tall and big, and he could bluff people into not daring to come closer. She was also worried about petty theft, and the silver was gone in the blink of an eye.
was so big that she didn't notice Chu Yuan at all, because she suddenly "monkey stealing peaches", her face was red and her ears were hot.
After walking out of the hospital, Xu Wan was still thinking about spending too much money.
I kept chattering: "This shop is so dark... The medicine is so expensive, and I don't know how much ...... I have to pay for the consultation? β
I've never seen such a lot of money as a doctor beforeβββ
Hey, Xu Wan had an idea, both of them seem to be doing this business, if they have the capital in hand, it would be good to open a medical clinic.
She looked up at Chu Yuan and whispered, "Let's quickly find a way to make money, and let's open a medical clinic together in the future." β
She can specialize in iron damage, Chu Yuan...... She nudged his arm and asked, "Which subject are you?" β
Chu Yuan glanced sideways at her eyes that flickered with curiosity, looked away, clenched his hands into fists in front of his thin lips, and pretended to cough lightly.
cough βββββ
He was a little embarrassed and said, "Obstetrics and gynecology." β
Xu Wan: "......"
It's not that she thinks it's awkward for a man to be an obstetrician, it's really hard to think that it will be this department.
If the two of them stand in front of each other, maybe the big guy will think that Chu Yuan is a surgeon, and she is more like an obstetrician and gynecologist. She felt that he was very brave to try and dare to challenge the departments that men rarely had.
Xu Wan gave him a thumbs up and said softly: "That's goodβyour profession will definitely save a lot of lives here." β
Xu Wan didn't know that her words had really come true, but that was all for later.
In ancient times, medical skills such as giving birth to children were not developed, and many wealthy women died in childbirth in history.
She suddenly thought, could it be that God sent them to this era ...... providence? To save lives......?
Chu Yuan's embarrassment was limited to the first reaction between men and women, and he recognized his profession quite well. Whether it is a patient who has a natural and smooth birth, or a patient who has a shaved abdomen, it is to give birth to a new life.
There are too many newborns delivered from him, but every time the baby is slapped on the butt and the first cry sounds, Chu Yuan will once again feel that this profession will shine.
He also observed the situation in the county, and also noticed that there were always people passing by in the courtyard of the medical hall, and had the same idea as Xu Wan.
In addition, they looked around the prefecture and found that there was only one private school. It can be seen that the opportunities for children here to study are too slim.
Chu Yuan said: "If there is a supply of medicinal materials, it will be beneficial for us to open a medical center." β
Xu Wan nodded, "Make a list of plans when you go back, and then plan well." β
If you have an idea, you will have a head, and it is better than spending the rest of your life in a poor village for the rest of your life.
After walking for half a day, those who are made of steel should be hungry.
Xu Wan saw a wonton stall in front of her sharply, she pulled Chu Yuan's sleeve, and her eyes were glued to the wonton stall.
"Shall we go eat ravioli?"
She actually found out just after walking by, but she didn't dare to mention it, and the business was more important. Now that I am busy with my business, I must feed my stomach, or it will be a difficult task to go back to the road with no end in sight.
Does Chu Yuan dare to refuse her?
He believed that as long as he said no, Xu Wan would be able to throw him down the next moment and run to eat by himself.
Then why did he have to fight with his stomach, he finally walked so far, and he should taste something new.
Chu Yuanying: "Yes." β
As soon as the words fell, Xu Wan let go of his hand, slipped away, and swam away like a slippery fish.
From afar, you can hear the woman's delicate voice, saying happily: "Boss! I want two bowls of small wontons, large portions. β
"Okay. The little girl sat and waited. β
Hearing this, Chu Yuan couldn't help but speed up his pace.
A bowl of small wontons is ten wen in small portions and thirteen wen in large portions, although it is cheaper than the medicinal materials bought in the medical hall, but Xu Wan still felt distressed when he gave the money.
She sighed again that the silver really didn't go through the flowers!
The speed of the boss's wontons was very fast, and Chu Yuan had just sat down for a while when he came over with two bowls of steaming wontons.
"Little girl, eat slowly."
Xu Wan said thank you sweetly, "Thank you, boss."
β¦β¦
The front of Wanmanlou is particularly lively, with people coming and going.
When Master Zhang got out of the carriage, he habitually looked around. The squinting eyes widened at the sight of the person sitting in the wonton stall opposite.
Master Zhang opened his eyes and looked at it for a long time, and at a glance, he was attracted by the little beauty who was eating wontons.
Although the little beauty's cheeks are still a little immature, the color is already quite good. Compared to several aunts in the family, they are a few points better.
Master Zhang's mind moved, and his lust gradually rose.
Who came to serve didn't know that Landlord Zhang was lustful, otherwise how could the aunt marry one after another.
When Li Erming paused, he had already sensed that something was wrong. Looking along his line of sight, he was very surprised to see Chu Yuan, and then after confirming that Master Zhang was indeed looking there, Li Erming already had an idea in his mind.
He leaned close to Master Zhang's ear and said, "Master, that girl knows a little." It's the newly married daughter-in-law of the junior in the small village..."
Master Zhang was about to open his mouth and ask Zhang Liu to follow him to see which one the little beauty is, but since Li Erming can tell which one it is, it will naturally save a lot of trouble.
Master Zhang smiled again and showed a mouthful of gold teeth, looked at the side face of the little beauty, and repeatedly praised: "Excellent, excellent, really excellent." β
