Smuggling Daming

Chapter 147 Bloodletting Therapy

Zhou Zhong thought that relying on his own status, the other party would have to give some face no matter what, but unexpectedly, he met two stupid boys, and judging by the other party's appearance, it seemed that this was the first time he had come to Shuangyu Port, and he didn't even know who he was. Who, it is naturally impossible to give him face, this makes Zhou Zhong also a little dumbfounded.

But since the other party asked Father Ruowang to explain why they cut their boss, Zhou Zhong knew a little bit about it, and also understood that Father Ruowang and the others had good intentions, so he gestured to Father Ruowang and said: "Father Ruowang , come and explain to these two little brothers!"

Father John wanted to explain just now, but it was a pity that the other party didn't give him a chance at all. Now that Zhou Zhong is here, he finally had the opportunity to say: "Two little brothers, your boss is because of obesity, the blood in the body is too full, the body It can’t handle the running of so much blood, now I let out some of the excess blood in his body, which will make the blood in his body reach a balance again, so that he will wake up soon!”

Father John’s explanation is indeed in line with the current mainstream medicine in the West. For the current Western countries, no matter what disease they have, there is almost only one treatment method, and that is bloodletting. The amount of blood is also different. It can be said that it has developed into a system. However, although this bloodletting therapy has a certain effect on some diseases, it is not good for most diseases. This method of treatment has long been abandoned in later generations. up.

Zhou Zhong is no stranger to this bloodletting therapy, mainly because he read a celebrity biography in his previous life, one of which introduced Washington, the founding president of the United States.This wise president blindly believed in this kind of bloodletting therapy. As a result, when he was sick, he asked people to bleed himself several times. In the end, the blood released reached half of the total blood in the human body. As a result, he killed himself due to excessive blood loss.In addition, as far as Zhou Zhong knows, Washington is not the only person who died of excessive bloodletting in Western history. After all, this treatment has been popular in the West for hundreds of years. God knows how many people will die due to this primitive treatment method. die.

The person who fell into a coma underground was obese, and in the words of later generations, he was a high-level person. This kind of person suddenly passed out.It was probably because of diseases such as high blood pressure, which happened to be one of the diseases for which bloodletting therapy could be temporarily effective. Therefore, Father John's bloodletting therapy for him was probably just right for the symptoms.

However, Zhou Zhong took the blood-liberating therapy, but the two young men on the other side had never heard of bloodletting when they were sick. They saw the stunned man after listening to Father John's explanation.Pointing at him again, he said angrily: "Nonsense, everyone who is sick in the world needs to rest well, how can there be bloodletting like you, I think you are deliberately trying to harm our boss!"

Seeing that the other party did not believe their words, both Father John and Priest Nader sweated anxiously, and Zhou Zhong acted as a mediator.Naturally, he wanted to be fair, so he immediately said: "Two little brothers. Zhou is a scholar and also a student in the fourth year of Zhengde. Here Zhou is also fair, these two people from the West The priests did not lie, bloodletting was indeed a major form of healing among them!"

Hearing Zhou Zhong's identity as a scholar, the two fellows suddenly showed respect.In the Ming Dynasty, scholars were still very prestigious.Even when some people have conflicts, they will find local scholars to mediate.Zhou Zhong also knew this, so he used his identity as a scholar to bluff people.

"Mr. Xiucai, you are well-informed, and you probably wouldn't lie to us brothers in front of so many people, but now our boss has been injected with so much blood, and he is still unconscious. What if there is something good or bad? , we can't explain it, so we still can't let these two barbarians go!" The stunned guy on the other side was still very stubborn, but his attitude towards Zhou Zhong had softened a lot.

Zhou Zhong also knew that no matter what he said, he might not be able to convince the other party. Just when the crowd divided, the doctor from the chamber of commerce finally came here panting.The doctor's surname is Wei. He is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He is not tall, and he is relatively thin. The only doctor, and also the best one among the few doctors in Beigang.

"Doctor Wei, hurry up and help that elder brother take a look. It would be even better if you can wake him up now!" Zhou Zhong said to Doctor Wei with a smile. In Shuangyu Port, doctors are a rare profession. After all, there are better doctors. There is no need to worry about income at all, and it is naturally impossible for people to come to a chaotic place like Shuangyu Port for money, so there are tens of thousands of people in Shuangyu Port, but there are not many doctors who can make a move, and Doctor Wei in front of him is one of them. One, so Zhou Zhong was very polite to him.

Dr. Wei was very kind to people, and when he heard Zhou Zhong's words, he agreed with a smile. He walked over and frowned and looked at the patient lying on the ground, especially when he saw the wound on the other's arm, he showed a puzzled expression, and then He stretched out his hand to give the other person his pulse, and then he relaxed his frown and said, "It's okay, it's because of his diet that the blood in his body is too full, and the weather is hot now, so he can't adapt to it for a while. That's why he passed out, but now the qi and blood in his body are much calmer, and it probably won't be long before he wakes up."

When he said this, Dr. Wei couldn't help looking at the wound on the patient's arm with strange eyes. On the way here, he also heard from the people from the chamber of commerce, and knew that it was two barbarians who were bleeding each other for treatment. Bloodletting therapy, but it is all bloodletting at specific acupoints, and only a few drops of blood are injected each time. How can anyone cut a patient's arm at once like the other party, and pour out half a bowl of blood?

Hearing Dr. Wei's words, the two guys finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they still begged a little worriedly: "Doctor, can you give our boss a cure, it's best to let him wake up now, so that we can also Don't worry, as for the outpatient fee, you will never be short!"

Seeing the worried faces of the two boys, Dr. Wei smiled understandingly. He stretched out his hands and massaged the patient's palms and head a few times, then helped him up again, and put a heavy weight on the patient's back. After beating a few times, the result was amazing. With his beating, this obese patient really slowly opened his eyes.

"Wake up! Wake up!" The people around were all amazed when they saw Dr. Wei's medical skills, and the two fellows ran up excitedly to support their boss and said, "Boss, you are finally Wake up, you scared us to death just now!"

Although the obese patient opened his eyes, his mind was not very clear for a while. He looked at the people around him with confused eyes, and it took him a long time to react: "It seems that I have committed this old problem again. Huh? Who hurt my arm?"

At this time, Fat Dongjia finally felt something was wrong with his arm, and turned his head to find the wound on his arm. Although the blood was no longer bleeding, the pool of blood on the ground was still very wet, and it looked so glaring under the sun.

Hearing what Fat Boss said, Zhou Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Brother, I am Zhou Zhong, the proprietor of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce. Just now you passed out in front of the door of our Beigang Tea House. The guard wanted to carry you in for treatment. But it just so happened that my two Hu friends saw that your condition was not good, and they also knew some first-aid medical skills, so they had to give you bloodletting treatment without authorization. Now you are in good health, except for later Besides Dr. Wei, you also need to thank my two friends!"

Those two guys had never heard of Zhou Zhong, but the fat owner came to Shuangyu Port to do business, how could he not know Zhou Zhong's name?Therefore, when he heard that the young man in front of him turned out to be the owner of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, he was also taken aback, and hurriedly bowed and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhou of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce. My surname is Huang and my name is Tailai. Thanks to the help of my friends this time." , Huang thanked you here!"

Huang Tailai said that he gave a deep salute to Father John and Reverend Nader. With Zhou Zhong's status, he would not lie about this kind of thing, so he also sincerely thanked each other, and at the same time motioned the two guys to take out A silver ingot was given to Father John as a thank-you gift, but this was rejected by Father John and Priest Nader. Even though they are so destitute now, according to the teachings of the Dominicans, they absolutely cannot accept it. Other people's property can only accept the food given by the other party at most.

Zhou Zhong also knew something about the beliefs of Father John and Father John, so he explained to Huang Tailai at this time, and then let him take back the money, and then said a lot of thanks, and finally when he left, he did not Wang Wang said to Zhou Zhong: "Young Master Zhou, I came here from Tianjin this time, mainly to collect some special products such as folding fans and screens from the Japanese country. I hope that Young Master Zhou will take care of it!"

Hearing the other party's request, Zhou Zhong laughed loudly and said: "Brother Huang, you are welcome. You are our guests when you come to Shuangyu Port. We will naturally find ways to provide convenience for the guests, but you want to accept Japanese The goods are going to the wrong place. Our Nanyang Chamber of Commerce is mostly goods from Nanyang. If you want to receive goods from the Japanese country, I recommend my brother to go to Nangang District. The Xie Family Chamber of Commerce over there mainly takes the Japanese route. Most of the Japanese goods in Yugang are concentrated in Nangang, if you go there, just report my name, and the other party will definitely try their best to help you find satisfactory goods!"

Hearing Zhou Zhong's advice, Huang Tailai also hurriedly thanked him, then turned around and took his staff to prepare to go to Nanyang. At this moment, Dr. Wei came over and kindly reminded him not to eat too greasy and salty food, otherwise it would be bad for his condition, and the result would be even worse. Huang Tailai thanked him again and again. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
