Chapter 147: Blue Five's Proposal
It's a big loss!
I knew that the young master was such a loser, so I might as well agree to the patient directly!
It's good now, the patient who can be bought for ten taels of silver is touched by the young master's upper and lower lips, and it costs an extra twenty taels of silver.
Thursday tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Young Master, you..."
"That's it!" Lan Bin waved his hand.
Human life is very worthless in the eyes of others, and even abuse people with money, but in his case, human life is very valuable.
He can't change the environment, but he can guarantee that he won't be changed by the environment.
Thursday said in frustration, "Yes, young master!"
"Alright, go down! Remember to bring the patient tomorrow!" Lan Bin said again.
"Yes, young master!"
Thursday nodded, and walked out of Lan Bin's yard dejectedly.
"Thursday, is the young master in the courtyard?"
As soon as he got out of the courtyard, the housekeeper Lan Wu hurriedly came, glanced at Thursday, and asked.
Thursday nodded, "Inside, you go in!"
"What's wrong with you? Scolded, young master?" Lan Wu was about to enter the courtyard, and he didn't look much on Thursday, but he said a little more.
Thursday's depression was sad and no one to talk about, and when he heard Lan Wu ask, he talked about buying a patient in one go, and said, "I really don't understand, why should a patient who can be bought for ten taels of silver spend thirty taels to buy!"
"Can't figure this out? The young master is kind-hearted and benevolent, which is different from those nobles who treat people like mustards! The young master really treats us as human beings!" Lan Wu sighed.
As the steward of the Blue Mansion, he used to rely on the power of the Blue Mansion, and also regarded those subordinates, slaves, and craftsmen as untouchables.
If someone makes a mistake, he will either beat or scold. It can even be killed with a cane.
But after Lan Bin asked him to manage the glass workshop and soap workshop, he often used him to improve the treatment of the craftsmen in the workshop, such as raising wages, including rice, and even asking the children of the craftsmen and children of the workshop to open a school, and so on.
I saw that in order to repay the young master's kindness, the craftsmen worked hard and tried their best to improve their craftsmanship.
In addition to understanding Lan Bin's approach, he also realized that doing things in the workshop is a person with feelings and ideas.
It's not a mustard, an animal.
Thursday's heart moved, it was true, in the past, if I didn't go along with the young master's heart a little, I would provoke the young master's beating and scolding. In front of the young master, he didn't even dare to say more.
And now, the young master's attitude towards himself is much kinder, and it is rare to be beaten and scolded for no reason, and even his courage in front of the young master is much greater.
I didn't find out before, but at this time, the housekeeper mentioned this, the young master didn't just treat himself as a human being, and he was tolerating himself in the details.
After Lan Wu sighed, his words changed: "But spending thirty taels of silver to buy a patient is really a loser!"
"Uh, butler, didn't you just say that it was the young master's benevolence?" Thursday that was moving, a little confused.
"The young master is benevolent and righteous. But the young master doesn't know, are you stupid too?"
Lan Wu glared and said, "Why do you spend money to buy patients? Can't you find someone to find a death row prisoner from the government to test the medicine, and you can't pull someone out of the Jinyi Weizhao Prison to test the medicine?"
"Can't you find someone from the army to test the medicine?"
"Especially in the army, although there are not as many wounded as in wartime, if you find two wounded and sick people, you can still find them."
"And it doesn't have to be so troublesome to find someone to test the medicine in the army!"
"That's right! Why didn't I think of this, I'll go and tell the young master now!"
Thursday's eyes lit up, and he hurried to turn around and go into the yard.
But he was stopped by Lan Wu: "Okay, don't go." I happened to be looking for the young master. Let's talk about it in a moment! You're just waiting here!"
"Okay, butler, I'll wait here!" Thursday nodded.
Lan Wu didn't pay attention to Thursday, went straight into Lan Bin's yard, found Lan Bin, and briefly talked about the recent events of the glass workshop and the soap workshop.
Emphatically said that the house has been invited to Zhuangzi
After building the school, he said, "Young master, Mr. Xuetang, and the paper mill are still looking for it. We'll have news later!"
"Got it!" Lan Bin nodded, waved his hand, and signaled that Lan Wu was okay to go out.
Lan Wu didn't move, and continued, "Young Master, I heard Thursday say that you are looking for a patient to test the medicine?"
"That's the thing, what, do you have any good ideas?" Lan Bin said with a smile.
Lan Wu nodded, and said, "Young Master, I think that instead of letting Thursday look for patients outside, it is better to catch a few death row prisoners from the government cell, or find a few wounded soldiers from the army to test the medicine."
"There are not many death row inmates in the government, and it doesn't matter if two die. And the wounded soldiers of the army, either not injured, or seriously injured, can also be tested."
"When it is cured, everyone rejoices. It's okay if healed. Anyway, if you don't try the medicine, the wounded soldiers will eventually die of serious injuries."
"I've thought about that idea too. But I don't trust the civil officials, and the civil officials have been saying a lot about me recently, and I am afraid that they will be put in by them if they transfer death row prisoners from the government!"
Lan Bin spread his hands: "As for the wounded soldiers of the army, they can't bear it. People are already in pain, and I don't want to add a pain to other people's pain."
"So let's look for Thursday outside!"
"The young master is compassionate and heartfelt, which makes the little one admire!" Lan Wu slapped his ass and said, "Since the young master is unwilling to transfer death row prisoners from the government, and he doesn't want to use the army's wounded soldiers to test the medicine."
"Why don't you pick someone up from the Jinyi Guard. Young master, don't forget, you're still a hundred households in brocade clothes!"
Lan Bin woke up, yes! How did I forget this stubble, the Jinyiwei in the early Ming Dynasty is different from the Jinyiwei in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
In the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty, the Jinyi Guard was infiltrated by the civil official group like a sieve, and something happened to spread throughout the imperial court every minute. And the Jinyi guard in the early Ming Dynasty was firmly controlled by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Even if he was interviewing for medicine in Jinyi Weizhao Prison and two death row inmates, only Zhu Yuanzhang knew, and people outside didn't know.
Relatively speaking, there will be no criticism because of the private drug test.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but nod and said, "Your proposal is good, I'll go to the emperor and ask for a favor when I go back."
Although he agreed with Lan Wu's proposal, he didn't dare to rely on the fact that he was a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, so he went to Jinyi Wei to mention people without authorization.
Especially he, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, is only a nominal and honorary official position, not a real Jinyiwei.
rashly went to Jinyiwei to mention people and test the medicine, I am afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang will not like it.
"The emperor likes the young master so much, he will definitely not refuse your request, young master."
Lan Wu looked at his suggestion, and was recognized by Lan Bin, and he was overjoyed, the young master went to Jinyi Wei to mention people, do you still need to spend money? Thirty taels of silver, won't you save it?
"I'll be talking about this in two days. Tomorrow Thursday I brought the patient and tried it first to see how it works."
Lan Bin smiled: "If the medicine is good, just look for a patient outside, you can not only test the medicine, but also cure the disease. The medicine doesn't work, and it's not too late to go to Jinyi Wei to pick up people!"
"Uh, young master, you still have to spend money to buy a patient?" Lan Wu said in astonishment.
