Big Ear Thief Selling Straw Sandals

Chapter 111 The genius doctor still needs to eat

Chao An got up early, arrived at the hour, had breakfast, and left the camp again for the city.

Looking at Chao An who was smiling innocently, and seeing the big grass carp with a mouth that was more than a foot long and opening and closing, not only Liu Mei was surprised, but even Yun Duoer came forward to watch it curiously.

"Make it into fish foam, and give Duo'er a boost."

Although fish is not as good as meat, it is still considered a meat dish, which is much more delicious than vegetables.

Such a big fish is probably not more than ten catties, how much can my daughter eat?

Food color also!

Liu Mei, who had complicated feelings for Chao An, had ripples in her originally painful state of mind for no reason.

A woman, a woman with an oil bottle, and a man holding and coaxing her feel completely different.

Especially, in Xunyang City, which lacks men right now.

Seeing Liu Mei startled, Chao An reminded, "This fish won't last long."

"Well!"

Liu Mei realized that the live fish must be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise the freshness will be lost by half.

Take out a kitchen knife, scrape the scales, break the abdomen, remove the internal organs, cut into long strips, and tie them with hay to dry.

Those fish steaks that haven't been cleaned, put them into the clay pot after cleaning, add two handfuls of rice, and the fish steak porridge will soon emit fragrance.

Seeing that there was only half a tank of water, Chao An took the initiative to pick up two buckets to fetch water from the river.

After filling up the water tank, Chao An got some mud and hay to help repair the light leaks on the roof.

It was almost noon, in the courtyard, Yun Duo'er called out sweetly: "Uncle, come down to eat porridge."

Climbing down from the roof, Yun Duo'er held a ladle of water to signal Chao An to wash his hands, and then brought a large bowl of porridge with fish steak and put it in Chao An's hand.

The salty and fragrant porridge has a faint intimacy.

In the rice shop, the three of them hadn't finished eating when suddenly someone broke in.

"Brother An, brother An, are you there?"

Liu Mei had the impression that it was Wu Pu, Chao An's younger brother.

Chao An came to the shop from the patio with the bowl in his hand.

"What's wrong?"

Wu Pu gasped and said: "Master Hua and the others were captured by the officers and soldiers!"

"Why did you arrest him? Where did you arrest him?"

Wu Pu didn't see it with his own eyes when he went out at the time, so he could only guess blindly: "I heard that we were arrested and taken to the county government. Could it be the miracle doctor Hua who treated us?"

Chao An immediately put down the porridge bowl and said, "Let's go and have a look!"

"Hey~~"

Liu Mei stretched out her hand to stop her, but in the end she didn't stop her. Looking at the backs of the two brothers running away, she frowned.

Chao An and Wu Pu hurried all the way to the county government office, and bravely stepped forward to ask the government servant on duty.

"Brother, please ask me if the disciple Huashen doctor has been arrested?"

The yamen servant sized it up for a while, and then asked vigilantly, "Who are you from Miracle Doctor Hua?"

Chao An accompanied him with a smile and said, "Master Hua has treated us, so come here and ask him what he did?"

The yamen servant also saw that the two men were unarmed, and his face softened, and he said, "Master Hua is a guest invited by Zhi Jinwu, don't listen to the wind, it's just rain!"

Now, Chao An and Wu Pu felt a little relieved, it was fine.

In the county office, Liu Bei specially invited Hua Tuo's master and apprentice to come here, in order to maximize the function of "miracle doctor".

I went to Hua Tuo's residence yesterday to get a general understanding of the current situation of the divine doctor's apprentice, and focused on his surgical operations that transcended the times.

Although Liu Bei did not understand medical skills, he knew a little bit about the basics of medical and health care in later generations.

The failure of Chao Quan's laparotomy operation was most likely caused by postoperative infection. In the era without antibiotics, any trauma that is not handled properly will become extremely risky.

Therefore, after spending the whole night, Liu Bei prepared some "props".

A pile of catgut, three curved suture needles, a basin of high-concentration saline, three small and sharp steel scalpels, a stack of boiled sterile gauze, and a dog, sheep and cat.

"Since Miracle Doctor Hua understands, let's open up the three of them and suture the wounds at the end to see the aftereffect."

Hua Tuo was also very excited. It was the first time he heard that "bacterial" infection caused wound corruption.

Although it is unbelievable, as Zhi Jinwu said, whether it is true or not can be determined by doing a few more animal experiments.

Moreover, Hua Tuo was excited by the promise of Jinwu.

"As long as the genius doctor can keep improving, he will be able to find a safe surgical method. As long as this is achieved, I promise to win awards and titles for the genius doctor!"

In this era, unless they are established by the imperial court, all wandering doctors in the rivers and lakes are considered lowly, and they belong to the five black categories just like traders.

Holding the golden promise, Hua Tuo pulled himself together, and with the help of his apprentice, he performed three animal surgeries using the prepared props.

After the three operations, the backyard of the county government office has almost become like a slaughterhouse. However, by the way, it has been proved that the self-created "Mabosan" is also effective for livestock.

Putting the three experimental animals into cages, Liu Bei said: "The weather is hot, and Dr. Hua can come to the county office every day to check their recovery status. Of course, I will trouble you to write operation records, as detailed as possible, so that we can improve them in the future."

Hua Tuo nodded again and again, indicating that there was no problem at all.

"Please don't worry about Zhijin Wu, the grass people must keep it in mind."

"By the way, can Miracle Doctor Hua authorize Yongzhou Publishing Company to publish "The Book of Green Neck"?"

"publishing?"

Hua Tuo was a little confused.

The "Book of the Green Sac" was written by myself with the most of my life's hard work, mainly including records of intractable diseases and related pathologies that I have come across before, as well as records of many prescriptions and drugs.

"Yes, Yongzhou plans to open a medical class to teach students who are interested in studying medicine. The "Qing Nang Book" is more comprehensive, and it can be used as a teaching material after adjustment and induction."

Oh, I see.

Hua Tuo is very excited that his works can be recognized and promoted.

"If necessary, Zhi Jinwu will take it."

Liu Bei didn't want to take advantage of others, so he took out the authorization agreement, Hua Tuo immediately questioned it after reading it.

The agreement stipulated that the first batch of 300 copies of "Qing Nang Shu" would be printed, and each copy would be priced at the same price. Yongzhou Bookstore would pay Hua Tuo 100 taels of silver, and each additional thousand copies would be paid [-] taels of silver.

"Zhi Jinwu, how does this work? I never thought of charging a fee"

In this era, not to mention movable type printing, there is even no woodblock printing. Except for handwritten books, rubbings can only be made on stone tablets.

For example, in the fourth year of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Cai Yong, Liu Bei's father-in-law, proposed to the court to engrave seven Confucian classics with nearly 21 characters, which took eight years to engrave on 46 stone tablets and stand them in front of the gate of Taixue.

This move caused a sensation all over the country, and countless scholars came to observe and transcribe.

Some smart people even privately rubbed and printed books, which is the earliest book printing.

As a time traveler, when Liu Bei started his school, he adopted the cross-age movable type printing technique.

Until the establishment of Yongzhou Book Company, the printing factory, paper factory and ink factory had been relatively complete.

Right now, the printing efficiency of Yongzhou Bookstore is extremely exaggerated, and the prices of books have dropped again and again, but they are still making a lot of money.

Yongzhou Bookstore not only prints public school textbooks, but also publishes a large number of Confucian classics and Taoist collections, and even undertakes works by contemporary celebrities.

As the Chinese civilization of farming and reading, books are undoubtedly a vital part.

Copying books is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and each copy is worth a lot of money. The rich and powerful monopolize the education opportunities of future generations.

Except for a very few lucky poor and lowly children who have the opportunity to borrow books from wealthy families, the vast majority of them can only face the loess with their backs to the sky throughout their lives.

In addition, there are quite a few celebrities, in order to become famous all over the world, they hired people to copy books and gave them to the powerful to increase their chances of becoming an official.

The emergence of Yongzhou Bookstore has tipped the tip of the iceberg of unfair education.

Therefore, in Hua Tuo's view, it is simply unreasonable to print a book without paying for it, but to give himself a large sum of money.

"This is the manuscript fee, and Dr. Hua deserves it. I hope that all talented people will have no worries about food and clothing for Zilu, concentrate on learning, and make it to the next level."

Understanding Liu Bei's intentions, Hua Tuo no longer refused. After all, being able to live comfortably is indeed of great benefit to his medical research.

Since Zhijin Wu voted for peaches, I would repay them with plums. Hua Tuo immediately decided to revise and complete the "Qing Nang Shu" before printing it.

Liu Bei very much agreed with this rigorous academic attitude, and immediately agreed to give the other party a gift, claiming that it would make the research of miracle doctors even more powerful.

Hua Tuo didn't take it seriously.

Zhi Jinwu is indeed a master of culture and martial arts, he is on the horse to rule the army, and he is off the horse to calm the people. No matter who he is, he should say hello.

However, the way of medical skills cannot be achieved without ten years of work.

What gift can be even more powerful?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
