Chapter 206 Detailed Explanation
Sure enough, the man's eyes were full of amazement, petrified beside the car, she couldn't bear it anymore, and giggled as she got into the car.

Chun Equinox suppressed a smile, lowered her head to tidy up the slightly messy skirt corners for the mother, while Xiao An poked her head out with a smile, and shouted, "Master Ouyang can go."

At this time, everything was ready in the hospital, the two fir doors were open, a rectangular plaque wrapped in red silk was hung on the lintel, and two bundles of rattle branches were placed under the facing locust tree. There are rows of long wooden chairs against the wall, and two stacks of rough porcelain bowls on the small table. The three wooden cabinets in the medicine hall are filled with high-quality medicinal herbs. , the old man stroked his white beard and sat in the clinic, flipping through his pen and ink.Wu Ersao was standing in the steamy kitchen, steaming pots of white and plump steamed buns stuffed with cabbage and meat.

Mu Ai and the others got out of the carriage and looked around, but there was nothing to improve. They also saw dozens of neighbors gathered outside the door, many of them had bad complexions, presumably they were people who wanted to see a doctor.So he told Mu Liu not to wait for any auspicious time, but to start.

Therefore, Xinglin Leader, who has been admired and praised by countless people for a hundred years, opened in such a simple atmosphere.

The dignified and gentle Mu Ai, the energetic old man Wang, and the flushed Mu Liu, the three of them stood together on the stone steps in front of the door, holding bamboo poles and working together to pick off the red silk, accompanied by the sound of branches. There was a crackling sound, revealing a long black plaque inside, with four golden characters written on it, "People's Medical Center".

Among the crowd in front of the door, someone began to ask his companions curiously in a low voice, "Do you know what is written on the plaque?"

The man was also illiterate, so he blushed when asked, and answered after holding back for a long time, "It should be the word medical hall."

The person who asked the question said angrily, "You don't need to say that. I also know that it is a medical clinic. The question is, what is the name of this medical clinic?"

The man was also annoyed by the question, so he glared at him and said, "I can't read, how would I know, go forward and ask!"

The person who asked the question raised his head to look at the gentle and amiable young lady with a faint smile on his face, and the old man in the azure robe beside him, and shouted boldly, "Madam and old man, what is the name of the clinic?" ah?"

Mu Ai and Mr. Wang looked at each other, and replied in a warm voice, "Neighbors, our medical center is named Minmin Medical Center, which means saving lives and healing the wounded, and relieving people's pain. In the future, we will open outpatient clinics every day, and we will rely on everyone's help." Please take care of me, little girl, thank you in advance."

As Mu Ai said, she bowed down and bowed, then she pointed to Mr. Wang and Mu Liu beside her and said, "This is Dr. Wang, who has practiced medicine for thirty years. Sitting in the doctor. This young man is the shopkeeper of our medical clinic. From now on, he will take care of the daily affairs. Neighbors can ask him if they have any doubts. However, the weather has not yet completely warmed up. Come to support the medical hall, must be hungry and cold, our medical hall prepared some small snacks for the folks to pad their stomachs, express our gratitude, and please don’t be disgusted with the folks.”

The second sister-in-law Wu had been standing aside with a big steaming bamboo plaque in her arms, and when she heard Madam speak, she hurriedly approached people and greeted them with a smile, "Everyone, try my steamed stuffed buns. The one with pork belly and cabbage is still hot."

Speaking of which, everyone sent two in their hands, and the people behind saw the opening of the medical clinic and even sent out food. Originally, poor people who got up early in the morning, except for the workers, did not eat. Now they smell the faint smell of meat in the air. Still unable to bear it, they swarmed forward like a swarm.In less than half a cup of tea, more than 100 big meat buns were robbed. However, after hearing the news, many children and elderly people gathered around, so that Mrs. Wu was well prepared. She waved at Liu Quaner and Shen Wang, and the two embraced again. Two bamboo plaques came up, they were born and bred in the east of the city, looking around, how many people didn't know each other, uncle, third uncle, and Gouwa greeted each other, the buns were all distributed, and everyone ate with smiles on their faces.

An old man ate a meat bun, endured it and stuffed the other into his sleeve, clasped his fists, and smiled at Mu Ai and the others, "Little old man, on behalf of the villagers, thank you for your generous gift, but, little The old man is a rough man who can't read, I really didn't understand what Madam said just now, I hope Madam or the shopkeeper can explain it to everyone in detail?"

Mu Ai smiled slightly and said, "You are welcome, old man. To put it bluntly, our People's Medical Center has only one purpose and charges half price, but how to charge at half price is also very cumbersome to talk about. It is cold outside, so it is better for the old man and the villagers to enter. Have a cup of tea in the house, and let me, the shopkeeper, talk to everyone."

The old man hesitated for a moment, thanked him with a smile, and followed Mu Ai into the living room. Since ancient times, when something happened, no matter whether it was good or bad, the most indispensable thing was to watch the excitement. Hulala followed dozens of people from behind, and immediately filled half of the hall. Fortunately, there were wooden chairs by the walls and a lot of rough porcelain bowls. Liu Quaner and Shen Wang were carrying a big teapot and fell down Yes, everyone held a bowl of boiling hot tea.

Everyone came from a poor background, and when they were treated so politely, they felt a little emotional, and felt more and more that the hospital took them seriously.

Mu Ai nodded to everyone, turned and went back to the backyard, Mr. Wang also entered the clinic, Mu Liu cleared his throat, cupped his hands and said, "Fellow folks, our wife passed by here half a year ago on business, and saw that the place is dilapidated and messy. , the villagers were living in poverty, and I couldn't bear it. So I bought this yard by myself and opened this medical clinic. I didn't want to make money, but just wanted to do a good deed for everyone and accumulate merit. We In the medical hall, the doctor’s pulse diagnosis does not charge a consultation fee. If the villagers need to drink medicinal soup due to their illness, the medicinal materials in the medicine hall only charge half of our purchase price, and the cost is definitely not much. If the villagers do not have cash at home, Then you can use daily necessities such as eggs at home, firewood cut in the mountains, and grain produced in the field to offset them in batches. The so-called batches mean that if the medicinal materials cost forty renminbi, they can be offset by [-] eggs. , but there are only ten of the folks at home, so a guy will write down the names and addresses in the account book, and the other ten can be delivered to the account in half a month. If the folks don’t even have these daily necessities at home, then there is no The relationship can be offset by working out, and the wages are calculated at [-] yuan per day. That is to say, if the medicinal materials need [-] yuan, you only need to work for the medical center for two days to offset the medical expenses. I say this, can the folks still pay? Do you understand everything?"

As soon as his voice fell, there was a moment of silence in the waiting room, and everyone couldn't help muttering in their hearts, this medical center is really weird, it can use eggs and firewood to pay for the medicine, and it can also be repaid in batches on credit. You can't be a fool, right? If someone owes the medicine and doesn't pay it back, where do they want the money?

This time it was the old man who spoke first, "Shopkeeper, the little old man has something to say, should I ask it or not?"

"The old man has something to say, but it's okay to say it." Mu Liu spoke very kindly and modestly, which made the old man feel more at ease. "The little old man wants to ask the shopkeeper, isn't he afraid that someone will not pay back the money?"

"To be honest, old man, our wife gave up medicine at half price, and must add a large amount of silver taels every month. Naturally, I hope that the villagers will no longer suffer from illness. However, if someone disregards our wife's benevolence because of these tens of pennies, Heart, even us slaves will be angry and hate, then I am afraid that we will not continue to give up medicine. Therefore, I believe that there will be no such people who will ruin the well-being of the villagers because of their own selfishness. The folks will definitely not allow such a person to appear." Mu Liu's words won the approval of everyone, indeed, if it is true as the young shopkeeper said, in the future, the elderly and children at home will not have to worry about illness. He had no money for medical treatment, so he asked for money everywhere.If someone really hurt everyone because he didn't want to return the medicine, I'm afraid I would be the first to let him go.

When everyone figured it out, they all echoed. At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties slowly walked out from the corner of the room.Looking around for a while, as if he was a little uncomfortable with the gazes of the crowd, he bowed to Mu Liu and said in a very low voice, "Shopkeeper, I am Liu Baozhu from Wuhuai Village in the north. I heard from a friend who worked together a few days ago Regarding the matter of our hospital, I took the liberty to come here today to ask the doctor to give me a diagnosis and treatment."

Mu Liu knew that this must be the sickness caused by the hired workers who rebuilt the yard and told others when they went out to work, so he immediately laughed, "You don't have to worry, old man, I'll ask someone to take you to the clinic. "After speaking, he waved his hand and beckoned Shen Wang to come over, leading the middle-aged man to open the side door, pass through the medicine hall, and enter the innermost room.

Everyone stretched their heads to look curiously, muttering a few words in a low voice from time to time, and waited for half a stick of incense before the middle-aged man came out with four sets of herbs in his hands.

Mu Liu stood on one side with a smile and didn't speak, and couldn't help but shout out, "Brother Liu, what's the matter, what did the doctor say, how much did the medicinal materials cost?"

The middle-aged man seemed to wake up suddenly from a dream. He looked around and said excitedly, "Doctor Wang is too skilled in medicine. He only took the pulse and told most of my daily illnesses. He prescribed the medicine. The fourth doctor The medicine is only fifty cents, fifty cents. Last time I went to Yongchuntang in the city to see a doctor, I was charged two taels of silver. It was really cheap. Now my illness is cured, and I don’t have to sell the rations It's gone! Mrs. Xie is kind, Mrs. Xie is kind!" He became more excited as he spoke, waving the medicine bag with both hands, and knelt down facing the backyard.

Mu Liu hurriedly helped him up, persuaded him for a while before sending him out to go home.Now the room couldn't be quiet anymore. Everyone was dubious just now, but now that the facts were known, how could they hesitate any longer? Those few people who were introduced to see a doctor like Liu Baozhu, immediately lined up for diagnosis and treatment.The rest of the people also rushed out of the hall. Those with sick and elderly people rushed home to recite them, and those without sick people hurried back to tell their neighbors the great news. The children began to jump around, and the excitement became unprecedented...
