Chapter 4 Is This a Time of Peace and Prosperity?

Chu Mu walked slowly on the street, dealing with greetings from familiar or unfamiliar people from time to time.

The memory of the original owner for nearly twenty years, the information in it is simply not too huge, for Chu Mu, it is obviously impossible to receive the memory of nearly twenty years in an instant.

Under the brain's self-protection mechanism, the memories of nearly 20 years are like a memory library, existence is existence, but specific to a certain piece of information, it needs a certain factor to trigger it, and then digest it little by little.

It's like the person he met just now, before he met and contacted him with his own eyes, unless Chu Mu thought about this aspect of the matter himself, so as to trigger the memory of the original owner, otherwise, for Chu Mu, this person was completely strange.

In this way, it naturally made Chu Mu a little more cautious about this era.

Memories of nearly 20 years, even if triggered, cannot be clear in an instant, and it takes time to adapt and digest.

Along the way, they all greeted each other with smiling faces, coping with each sentence, digesting the memories of the original owner little by little, and recognizing this era little by little.

Following the memory of the original owner, he walked for about a quarter of an hour, and finally stopped at the door of a drugstore.

"Mingxintang."

Stopping outside the door of the medicine hall and looking at the plaque hanging on the eaves, Chu Mu silently recited these three words in his heart.

He was literate, but he was illiterate.

What he knows is naturally the Chinese characters of the previous life, and this life ...... Although it is quite similar to the ancient times he knew, unfortunately, the characters are not Chinese characters.

At least, every character he saw found the slightest sign of a connection with a Chinese character.

The original owner was even more completely illiterate, and he didn't even know how to write his own name.

As for how he knew that the three words on this plaque were called "Mingxintang...... Well, because that's what everyone else calls it.

If the accent is wrong, it may not be called "Mingxingtang" or "Mingxingtang......

"I'm a college student anyway, but I'm illiterate......"

Secretly sneering to himself, Chu Mu glanced at the plaque of this medicine hall again, shook his head, and without thinking too much, he stepped into this medicine hall.

Elder Li of this medicine hall can also be regarded as Chu Mu's acquaintance in this life.

After all, just after crossing over, because the original owner fainted, this Li Lao was being diagnosed and treated, and for two consecutive days, this Li Lao was also treated in the outpatient clinic one after another.

After the funeral was busy, Li Lao did not come to the door, but only told him to go to the pharmacy for a follow-up visit after the matter was handled.

Although he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his body, he specialized in surgery, and the doctor instructed Chu Mu to shirk it.

The medicine hall is not too big, and it is not much different from the furnishings of the Chinese medicine hall that Chu Mu went to in his previous life, and the strong smell of herbs is exactly the same as the taste of traditional Chinese medicine.

Li Laolangzhong, the only one who has had several faces, sat alone at the counter, and was seriously flipping through an obviously old book.

"Brother Mu is here......"

Li Laolang put down the book and looked up at Chu Mu.

Chu Mu responded with a smile, and then stepped forward.

“…… Have a seat. ”

Li Lao raised his hand and pointed to the chair in front of the table on the side, and after Chu Mu sat down, he got up and came over, raising his hand to check his pulse.

After checking the pulse, Li Lao pulled Chu Mu's arm again, and after kneading it a few times, he looked at Chu Mu: "It's not a big problem, it's just that the muscles and bones are a little strained......

Speaking of this, Elder Li paused for a while, and then said, "Brother Mu is practicing martial arts?" ”

"It's all fake tricks, and I've practiced it for a while."

Hearing this, Elder Li nodded:

"If you practice martial arts, you must not overdo it, it will hurt your body too much, besides, Brother Mu, your body bones are already a little weak......"

"In this way, the old man will prescribe a recipe for you to replenish qi and nourish your essence, and take care of it."

After speaking, Li Lao raised his pen to point the ink, pondered for a while, and then put down the pen to write the prescription.

The pharmacy guy on the side also stepped forward quickly, took the prescription immediately after writing, and then grabbed the medicine in front of each cabinet according to the prescription.

And Chu Mu was still sitting at the table, talking with Li Lao, of course, in most cases, Li Lao, Lang Zhong, was instructing, and Chu Mu, a patient, was listening silently.

Although Chu Mu didn't know much about Chinese medicine in his previous life, he lived in Guangdong all the year round.

And now, listening to what Li Lao said, coupled with the memory of the original owner, Chu Mu found that the doctor of this medicine hall seems to be no different from the traditional Chinese medicine in the previous life, it is also the five elements of yin and yang, the set of essence and spirit, and the medicinal materials are no different from the Chinese medicinal materials.

"The prescription should be taken once in the morning and once in the evening, and you need to move properly after taking it......"

The thought was just a flash, and before he could think about it, Elder Li's voice interrupted Chu Mu's thoughts.

Chu Mu didn't get too entangled, this kind of thing has appeared, the medical system is the same, what is this, too many factors can be explained, if he is entangled in everything, it is estimated that he will not be able to get entangled.

The prescription was grasped, and after paying nearly ten silver in money, Chu Mu did not linger long, and walked out of this medicine hall with the medicinal materials he had grasped.

At this time, the early morning has passed, and the flow of people on the street is obviously more, and this hour of the day is almost the most noisy time period in Qinghe County.

The people from the nearby villages, the merchants and the common people in the town, the children who were playing, the occasional carriage or sedan chair opened by the family, and the guards and soldiers on duty, the streets were full of people.

The body is still sore, and the arrangement to report to the inspection department can only be put on hold for the time being, so Chu Mu is idle.

Just walking on this street leisurely, while observing this ancient market life, while blending and contrasting with the memories in my mind.

He didn't walk fast, and of course, his muscles were sore at this time, and he couldn't walk very fast.

Along the way, stopping and stopping, Chu Mu also found a rather useful information.

The food sold on the street, whether it is grain by the pound or steamed buns, seems to be quite cheap.

Steamed buns are all a copper can buy one, unhulled rice is only seventy or eighty copper can buy a stone, according to the weight unit of this era, one stone is equal to one hundred catties, that is, a pound of rice, less than a copper.

According to the amount of food for ordinary people, at most two or three copper can meet the food needs of a day.

Such cheap grain undoubtedly clearly proves that at least in this Nanshan town, there is a huge surplus of grain.

You must know that as far as the memory of the original owner is concerned, this Nanshan Town was built around the Nanshan Iron Mine, located in the mountains, and is definitely not a large grain-producing town.

Non-grain-producing town, but the grain is so abundant, you can know a thing or two from the leopard, the people of Qinghe County are definitely living well.

After all, a copper is the smallest value of paper money, and a copper has such purchasing power, no matter how bad the people's lives are, they are definitely not much worse.

If this is the case in other places, then the current world of Chu is obviously a prosperous era that is "rare in history".
