The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 18 Technical Talent

At this time, a big boy rushed in from outside, he immediately hugged the child named Ling'er, and said to Gu San and his wife:
"Father, mother, the boy will work to earn food for the family. Even if the boy doesn't eat by himself, he won't let my sister go hungry. You must not sell my sister."

Gu San said angrily: "Even ordinary people can hardly see here in Ningyuan, where is anyone asking you to work? Are you two stupid? Why don't you kneel down quickly, this is the master, I'm afraid the master will look down on you two……"

Many people fled to Ningyuan from Liaodong, and the government hung their lives twice a day so that they would barely starve to death.If you want to find someone who can't work hard, you will give them a dry meal, so there are no employment opportunities here at all.

Huang Sheng was soft-hearted and couldn't see such a scene, so he quickly interrupted him:

"Don't talk nonsense now, the most important thing is to heal your injury. I can try it, but whether I succeed depends entirely on luck. Gu San, if you are not afraid of being cured by me, I will take you back for treatment."

Gu San's family all knelt and kowtowed, they were desperate, and they wanted to find this talkative and generous Mr. Huang to help them live with some money.

Gu San knew that his life was not long, and he couldn't let go of his children, so he wanted his youngest son and daughter to be slaves in Mr. Huang Sheng's house.

They didn't expect that this adult would be good at medicine and agreed to treat Gu San.

Gu San is already a person waiting to die, and now he is tortured by the wound so painfully that he just wants to die early, he immediately stated: "Adults are willing to show wounds to villains, even if villains die immediately, there will be no regrets, just do it, little one People are not afraid of death."

After examination, Huang Sheng preliminarily judged that it should not be sepsis. If it was sepsis caused by bacterial infection caused by trauma, Gu San should have died a long time ago. Under such medical conditions, it would not be delayed until now.

Ulcers on the corners of the mouth, bruises on the body, wounds that don't heal, resembling scurvy.But Huang Sheng is not a doctor, and he just guessed based on his own knowledge.But if the symptoms are correct, Huang Sheng will really treat them.

The environment here is too bad, and I really can't bear it. It is the best choice to bring this family back to my yard.

Huang Sheng said to Gu Shanhai: "I need to keep an eye on your father's injuries all the time. It's too inconvenient to come here every time. You might as well go to my place to squeeze together."

Gu San's eldest son saw that Mr. Huang did not despise his family, and wanted to take them back to his mansion. The good thing happened so suddenly that he couldn't react immediately.

Gu Wang's legs softened and he wanted to kneel down and kowtow. Huang Sheng was very annoyed, but he had no choice.

Huang Sheng ordered Huang Dongshan and the others to help Gu San move, and hurried away by himself. The place is too smelly, and if it was later, he would probably spit his breakfast on Gu San.

When Huang Sheng returned home, he arranged for Gou Er and the others to clean up a small house, paved the floor with quicklime, and arranged for Huang Mingdao to go to the pharmacy to buy dried lemons, orange peels, and tea that the family didn't need for the time being.

Suffering from scurvy can be recovered as long as a large amount of vitamin C is supplemented. There are no fresh fruits rich in vitamin C such as lemons and oranges in this season, so I can only go to the drugstore to buy these dry things to make do.

Huang Sheng is a modern person, and he is warm-hearted. He does good deeds with the attitude of curing diseases and saving lives. He himself thinks this is what he should do.

But in the eyes of those servants and Gu San's co-workers, he is a bodhisattva who saves the suffering, and Master Huang's glorious image in their hearts has been elevated a lot.

Huang Sheng still took the counterfeit version of Yunnan Baiyao for oral administration and external application, plus alcohol disinfection methods to treat trauma. The wound was too large to heal naturally, and of course it needed sutures.

He asked Huang Dongshan to put the prepared tea leaves, dried lemons, and orange peels on Gu San's bedside.

Ask Mrs. Gu San to take some for Gu San to chew when she has time, and ask the two maids, Laifeng and Qiaozhen, to find and buy green vegetables and wash them for Gu Sansheng to eat.

Gradually, Gu San's injury gradually developed in a better direction, and Huang Sheng finally let go of his anxiety.

This time, quack doctors won't mislead people. Huang Sheng still has a grudge about not curing the three Ming soldiers last time. He knew that there was a high possibility that his medication was wrong and they died.

Gu San's family felt as if they had arrived at a paradise in Huang Sheng's place. Since Huang Sheng had a lot of money, he was willing to spend money. The food provided for his family was not simple in the Ming Dynasty, and they ate meat every day.

Because the servants do high-intensity training every day, they need to strengthen their nutrition when they are growing up.

Now that there are hundreds of taels of silver in hand, of course everyone must eat well and dress well, money is not as important as health.

The people in Gu San's family were used to their stomachs running out of oil and water. After a few days of eating meat, their bodies couldn't bear it, and several of them started to have diarrhea. Fortunately, Huang Sheng discovered it early, and let them eat dry food for a few days before they were all right.

This family is hard-working people, always rushing to work.Time flies and almost a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Gu San's health is slowly getting better.

His eldest son has already gone to the workshop instead of him. These craftsmen are cheap labor in the Ming Dynasty. In terms of status, craftsmen are still fathers and sons, and they will serve forever.

It also means that generations have to work in the workshop of the imperial court. If you don’t go there, you have to pay three qian silver to the Shangguan. If you go, you can get three buckets of rice and grain and one catty of salt every month.

Food is too expensive here in Liaodong, and Gu San’s family has no money left. Ningyuan is a military town, and there is no place for civilian labor, so the only way to go is to serve the army. Of course, refugees without special skills don’t even have this opportunity.

Gu Shanhai, a strong young man, had the nerve to eat and drink in Huang's house, so he went to work in the workshop on the third day after he came to Huang's house.

The second son, Gu Shanhe, followed Huang Dongshan all day long. He really liked the two guns he carried on his back, so he also practiced loading them.

Gu San's 13-year-old daughter had eaten enough food for nearly a month, and she was finally able to see that she was a little girl in the flowered dress bought by the Huang family.Seeing that he was able to walk slowly with the help of a cane, Gu San was no longer ashamed to stay in Huang's house.

He discussed with his mother-in-law that Mr. Huang has been kind to him as much as a mountain, but his family is poor and there is nothing to repay.Now the only option is to give the youngest son and daughter to the adults to order, and let them serve the adults with all their heart and soul for the rest of their lives.

The two of them were worried that the youngest son would not agree, but this time the son was very obedient and agreed immediately.

It turned out that this kid learned from Huang Dongshan Pass that the adults are very kind to servants and maidservants, never beating and scolding them for no reason, and even teaching them how to read, but if they don't learn how to read well, they will be spanked.

My lord is always thinking of revenge against the slaves, all the servants are working hard to practice the three-volt period, and the lord himself practices marksmanship every day.

Too many people in Ningyuan City know the story of Huang Sheng leading his servants to behead Jiannu.

Gu Shanhe, a 15-year-old boy, is naturally fascinated. Being a servant of an adult means that he can practice shooting guns, learn to read, and be able to kill Jiannu. Of course, he happily agrees.

When the daughter heard that her parents wanted to leave her and her second brother in the Huang family to serve the adults, she jumped up for joy, and pulled Gu Shanhe to laugh and make noise.

The little girl's life in Huang's house was the happiest time in her life, and it was the first time she wore a bright new floral dress.

She said to the two elders: "Dad, mother, don't worry, my daughter will take good care of the adults, and the daughter also wants to learn to read, so that I can help the adults with things in the future!"

Gu Wangshi looked at the pair of children, sighed and told them: "Don't be too happy, adults don't know if they like you two."

Gu Ling'er suddenly looked sad, looking at her thin body and her rough hands, she was a little ashamed.

Gu Shanhe said: "My son will beg my lord to stay with us. We are not afraid of suffering, tiredness, or death. No matter what dangers we encounter, we will protect our lord."

Gu San nodded and said: "That's right. You must remember not to betray your patriarch. Those who betray their master will have difficulty moving an inch in Daming."

In the afternoon, Huang Sheng and his servants finished their training at the martial arts field in Ningyuan City. They lined up in a neat line and marched forward in unison following Huang Sheng's whistle.

Huang Sheng required everyone in his family to be literate, even the two women.Everyone studied and trained together for nearly a hundred days, and it was Huang Sheng who taught them according to the discipline of the modern army.

Now this small team has become a scene in Ningyuan City, and many people looked at them curiously when they passed by.

The ten servants wore brand-new flaming red war robes, and led by a young official, walked through the streets with their heads held high.The servants live a fulfilling life every day, busy with work, study, and training.

They now eat well, dress beautifully, and seven people with stronger fighting power, such as Huang Mingli and Han Guang, can still get a salary of two taels of silver every month.

For the three loaders who followed Huang Sheng, Huang Dongshan gave one tael and five taels of silver for January, and Gou'er and Lu Chengzu each gave one tael or two taels of silver.

The two maids gave each of them a tael of silver per month. The two of them really didn't expect that people who took refuge in slavery would still get their wages. When Huang Sheng handed over the white money to their hands, they seemed to be sleepwalking for a while.

Huang Sheng did this not because he was reluctant to pay his servants, but because he believed that egalitarianism should not be practiced. Of course, loaders cannot enjoy the same treatment as soldiers who charge into battle.

In the future, in Huang Sheng's system, it is necessary to put an end to the big pot, reward hard work and punish laziness, and improve the treatment of those who work hard, so that they can work harder and have more success.

The servants were all overjoyed, and they would get money for eating and drinking spicy food with the adults. No matter how hard the training was, we were not afraid.But there are also a few people who start to frown every half a month, because adults write new words silently every half month.

The most serious problem is the Mongolian Heihu. This kid is most afraid of literacy, so he is always spanked by Mr. Huang Sheng for this reason.Although it was just whipping with bamboo sticks, but it was summer, Heihu's butt was always flamboyant.

This little pain is nothing to a rough guy like Hei Hu.But the servants all take a bath together, they always look at Heihu's butt with joy, and nicknamed him 'Piebald'.

In the courtyard of the Huang family, every day is full of laughter. The two maidservants are also cheerful every day, even humming folk songs while working.

Mrs. Gu has fallen in love with this place, but no matter how good Mr. Huang's family is, they can't just live here without skin and face.

Shengdou Xiaomin can tell the difference between you and me!Your lord has cured your man's injury with kindness, and he has fed our big family for nearly a month. Now your man is almost healed, so you can't trouble your lord any more.

In the evening of this day, Gu San's family came to the living room of Huang Sheng's house. There were almost no visitors here, and now a group of servants and maidservants were taught to read and write by Huang Sheng.

Gu San's children are no strangers to this place, and they also like to come here at night, because Master Huang will also tell everyone stories about heroes when teaching new characters.
