Chapter 106 Strange Kyoto Disease

I never expected that I would experience such an incident right after I left home!

After a lot of acupuncture, Nan Suhe was already a little tired.

Every time acupuncture is performed, it is very physically demanding.

"Okay, let's get on with the business." Nan Suhe said after taking a breath.

I have a plan to come out today and cannot delay it.

Nan Suhe Qiaorui walked out of the store and continued to observe the streets of Kyoto again.

The streets of Kyoto are divided into four main roads: east, west, north and south.

There are a dazzling array of shops on every avenue/street.

But this family in front of me is a little special:
  Looking up, I saw that the decoration there was old, the front door was depressed, and the flags and signboards at the door were damaged.

In an area with a lot of traffic like this, it's hard to see a shop that's so depressed.

What is the reason?
  "Let's go there and have a look," Nan Suhe said to Qiaorui and walked over first.

As soon as he entered the medicine shop, Nan Suhe smelled a refreshing fragrance.

It's the taste of pills.

The taste is fresh and fragrant. It is said that the quality of this pharmaceutical pill is not low.

Although the medical skills are good and it is in a busy city, why is it so deserted and depressed?

Nan Suhe couldn't help but become curious, and couldn't help but look at the surrounding furnishings a few more times.

In the cabinet containing medicinal materials, Nan Suhe saw that the items on display did not contain expensive medicinal materials such as ginseng. They were all very common.

But the furnishings here are in order, and all the furnishings and environment are spotless.

"Sir, are you here to see a doctor?"

Hearing movement at the door, an old voice came from inside the house.

Looking along the sound, Nan Suhe saw an old man coming out.

Nan Suhe recognized at a glance that it was Mr. Xiao, the doctor that Jiang Bi had brought to the palace to treat Granny Xue.

Nan Suhe remembered that Mr. Xiao was quite famous for his local medical skills.

When Mr. Xiao came to the palace to treat Nanny Xue, those people were surprised that Jiang Bi asked Mr. Xiao to come out!

So, the pharmacy where he works is like this...

It’s really incredible!
  "Just take a look." Nan Suhe replied.

"Well, it's up to you, young master." Mr. Xiao said.

At this moment, Nan Suhe found that Mr. Xiao looked at him several times in a row.

Did you recognize yourself?
  Nan Suhe couldn't help but touch his face.

No, the mask is still there.

Moreover, she was still disguised as a man, so it was impossible to recognize her.

"I smell...the smell of pills?" Nan Suhe asked.

"Well, I didn't expect that Young Master is still an expert!" Mr. Xiao said, "That's true. He is refining pills."

Nan Suhe sniffed carefully again.

"Are there two types of pills?" Nan Suhe looked at Mr. Xiao, "One is for reducing fever, and the other is for reducing inflammation of sores on the body."

After saying that, I saw an expression of surprise on Mr. Xiao's face, as if he had found someone of the same mind!
  "Young Master has a good sense of smell!" Mr. Xiao quickly stepped forward, made tea for Nan Suhe, invited her to sit down in the inner hall, and continued, "Young Master can smell this, I think he must have great medical skills!"

Nan Suhe had some knowledge of the medical situation in Beili, and for the most part, he only knew about physical cooling, not medicinal herbs.

Or there is a way that is also very expensive.

And I have no idea about anti-inflammation. But Lao Xiao’s Deshan Pharmacy is different. It actually develops antipyretics and knows how to reduce inflammation!
  But why do you need to prepare these pills in advance?

"I just know a little bit about it." Nan Suhe said, "Mr. Xiao, I have also heard of your medical name. But -"

Nan Suhe looked around at the cold surroundings and said, "Why are you here?"

"Young master, you don't know something." Mr. Xiao said, "The people of Kyoto are suffering because of something!"

"Oh?" Nan Suhe raised his eyebrows, "Why bother? I'd like to hear the details."

"Every autumn and winter, when the weather turns cold, the people of Kyoto will experience a disease and disaster!"

When Mr. Xiao said this, his face was full of melancholy:
  “First, my face and body were covered with sores, which were itchy and unbearable, and then I had a high fever because of the sores!”

“Every autumn and winter, countless people die from this disease!”

"Is there no cure for this disease?" Nan Suhe asked.

"Yes, but the cost of treatment is extremely high!" Mr. Xiao sighed, "Even if I spend all my money and try to use cheaper medicinal materials, I can only use rare and precious medicinal materials!"

"How can ordinary farmers endure such treatment?"

"So we either have to hold on, or just get simple treatment, or we need to borrow money and pawn our property..."

Having said this, Mr. Xiao sighed.

"Young master must think that my family is cold. That's because I have been running around all these years. I say I am retiring, but in fact, I am looking for other treatments!"

"Did you find it?" Nan Suhe asked.

"No, but it's not that there are no clues at all." Mr. Xiao said, "During my travels, I was lucky enough to have an encounter with someone from the Divine Doctor Valley. After her simple advice, I got some ideas."

"So when I came back this time, I started developing it immediately." Mr. Xiao continued, "If the development is successful, then this pill can completely cure sores and reduce fever!"

After listening to Mr. Xiao's statement, Nan Suhe also had his own thoughts.

Every autumn and winter, sores and high fever occur...

Such a regular pattern seems like a regional disease, but will this regional disease be accurate to the seasons?
  In the entire Kyoto, so many people with superb medical skills, especially Mr. Xiao, are so helpless. Is this really normal?
  Or--

Is this really a natural disaster?
  Is it possible that it is man-made?
  But these have nothing to do with him, so Nan Suhe doesn't care much.

But after a conversation with Mr. Xiao, I trusted and admired Mr. Xiao's medical ethics and character.

Since the only way to make money by yourself is to open a medical clinic, and now you don't have the money to open a medical clinic independently, you must find someone to cooperate.

Those who cooperate must be reliable.

Nan Suhe felt that Mr. Xiao was a good candidate.

After thinking for a moment, Nan Suhe raised his eyes and looked at Mr. Xiao:
  "Mr. Xiao, I have a cooperation and I want to talk to you. Is it okay?"

Mr. Xiao nodded: "Young Master, it doesn't matter if you say so."

"To tell you the truth, I was out today because I have always wanted to find someone to cooperate with me in opening a pharmacy." Nan Suhe said, "I think Deshan Pharmacy, whether it is the geographical location or Mr. Xiao's character, is very popular with me. Appreciated and satisfied.”

"I think this Deshan Pharmacy is dilapidated and deserted, but I think Mr. Xiao is not willing to let it be like this."

"I wonder if Mr. Xiao is willing to revive Deshan Pharmacy?"

"Revitalize?" When Mr. Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, but then dimmed instantly, "But, I have been idle for a long time."

"It doesn't matter. I just don't have the money to open a store on my own for the time being, and there is really no other better location."

Nan Suhe said:
  "As long as Mr. Xiao believes in me, you will provide the place and money, and I will provide the medical skills and ideas."

"After that, we will start to make profits. Just seven of you and three of me."

"To show sincerity," Nan Suhe looked at the place where the pills were, "I can help you successfully develop the pills. And it will definitely be successful."

"Mr. Xiao, what do you think?"
