Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 337
The coachman took Long Aotian into the carriage and rushed to Wuyoutang.This time when he got into the car again, the driver was no longer silent, and chatted with Long Aotian, and Long Aotian was no longer domineering, and finally began to listen to other people's conversations for the first time in his life!
On the road, the coachman raised his whip and slapped it loudly, shouting: "Drive, drive!"

Long Aotian sat in the car, opened the curtain, and asked: "Why are you calling for a ride? Could it be that you don't know that you are driving a car?"

The coachman turned his head, gave him a strange look, and said, "Of course the villain knows that he is driving a carriage, but the horse doesn't. The villain has to tell it to hurry up!"

Long Aotian was taken aback, and spoke very quickly: "People have their own language, and beasts have their own language. Is it possible that you understand animal language? This is a very profound knowledge. I just heard that great sages in ancient times were talented, but In Datang, I have never heard of anyone doing it!"

The coachman slapped his whip again, and said: "Doctor Long, you often ride in the car. Could it be that your coachman never calls for a driver?"

Long Aotian thought for a while, and said: "It seems that many years ago, a new coachman in my family called to drive. At that time, I didn't ask why, but I just felt very annoyed, so I talked to the housekeeper, wrote it into regulations, and came back later. The housekeeper and coachman of the house must follow the regulations, and they are not allowed to call out, this is one of them, and since then, I have never heard my coachman call out again!"

The coachman groaned, turned around again, and said in surprise, "Regulations? You write regulations for the servants at home?"

Long Aotian nodded and said: "Yes, there are no rules, you can't be round, you have seen the character of my servants, they are all outrageous, they don't work long in my house, they change frequently, we can't always hire new servants, I have to tell him what to pay attention to, and simply write it into a regulation, and let the housekeeper read it to them!"

He paused, and then said: "The housekeeper doesn't always work for a long time, so I specially wrote a separate regulation for the housekeeper!"

The coachman grinned and didn't know what to say. I'm afraid it's not that your servants are of bad character, but that you are too demanding. It is unheard of for you to write regulations for your servants. No wonder your servants run away. Well, I won't be working at your house for long if it's me!

The coachman didn't know how to respond, so he just shut up and remained silent. Long Aotian waited for a while, and said: "I have nothing to say, it's your turn to find something to say, everyone is silent, how can we chat?"

The coachman laughed loudly, and turned his head to look at him again. This man is really interesting. Is it possible that all educated people are like this?

He felt that there was nothing to chat with Long Aotian, "a person with great knowledge", so he could only comfort him and said: "Doctor Long, people sometimes recite their words, although your recitation is too big today. point, but tomorrow will be fine, and you can go home again!"

Long Aotian nodded and said: "Yes, it will be fine tomorrow. Is the Wuyou Hall you mentioned a good place to go? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

The coachman said: "It's newly opened by the imperial court. It's a bit like a porridge hall opened in a disaster year. It just opened, and no one goes there yet! By the way, Doctor Long, although you only stay there for one night, you have to be careful. There are everyone, but don't let people bully you!"

Long Aotian said, "Why do the people inside bully me?"

Although the coachman likes to chat, he doesn't like this way of chatting very much. It is estimated that if his horse becomes a human, he can understand more things than the dragon doctor behind him, except for medical skills of course!

The coachman said: "When there are too many people, everything can be done, just be careful!"

Talking all the way, after leaving Chang'an City, he came to Wuyou Hall not long after.Wuyoutang is the easiest one among Wang Pingan's establishments, but also the most expensive one.Located outside the city, firstly, the place is large enough to accommodate many people, and secondly, the place is cheap, so that the imperial court does not need to spend more money to expropriate houses.

Wuyou Hall is not far from the city wall, just three miles away. It used to be a small village, because there were few fields around and the villagers were not very good at doing business, so their lives were not rich. After paying a sum of money, the villagers will benefit, so they will naturally move away, and the small village will be used as a worry-free hall, which will be expanded and improved in the future. Of course, that is a long-term plan in the future.

After entering the small village, Long Ao got out of the car, the coachman said goodbye to him, and drove back to the city again!

Long Aotian was at a loss, looking at the empty village, he thought: "These houses are too dilapidated, can people live in them? It's unimaginable that there are such poor people in Chang'an."

The Wuyou Hall has just been opened, the small village has just been requisitioned, and the preparations for the government have not yet been completed. There are only a few low-level officials looking after it, and there are not many people who come here. Everything is still under construction.

Seeing Long Ao getting out of the car, a small official thought to himself: "This man is so handsome, with thin skin and tender flesh, and he is also gorgeously dressed. He came here by car. He must be the son of some high-ranking official. He is here for inspection." !"

The little official hurriedly came up to greet him, accompanied him carefully and said: "Master, are you here for something?"

Long Aotian looked at the little official, and thought in his heart: "The clothes this man wears are very worn out, and he still smells like sweat. Could it be that he hasn't bathed for a month?"

Covering his nose, he said directly: "You stink too much, stay away from me. This is Wuyou Village?"

The petty official felt very embarrassed and felt very unhappy. He worked all day and had no time to rest. Could he be smelly? If you saw those poor people who stayed here, you would know what smell is. Compared with them, I am cleaner Incredibly!

Not knowing the other party's identity and not daring to offend, the little official took a few steps back and said, "If you come back to Young Master, this is Wuyou Village."

Long Aotian asked again: "Food and housing? It was agreed in advance that I have no money!"

Rich people, who can come here!The little official thought to himself: "It must be for inspection, the kind of private visit in a micro-service, noble son, come down to observe the people's conditions, and then treat it as capital when you go back. I have my own father at home to pave the way for him!"

Thinking that he understood Long Aotian's identity, the little official said: "Take care of food and housing, don't need money, but the place where you live is a bit broken, I'm afraid you won't get used to it!"

Long Aotian said: "I'm sure I'm not used to it, what's the use of being scary?" As he spoke, he entered the small village with his hands behind his back, followed by the little official.

Seeing this, the other petty officials also vaguely guessed in their hearts that this person must have come to inspect, and he was here to make money, not sent by the superior, otherwise it would be impossible to dress so gorgeously, but he should have put on makeup and dressed up. It's right to come here as a poor person. If you dress like this, others will recognize it, so why do you want to inspect it!

If this person is sent by the Shangguan to inspect, then he must be here to pick a thorn, so we must quickly arrange some "innocuous thorns" to let people pick and choose. When this person goes back and talks about it, he can make it appear that this time was not in vain. , and the Shangguan gave an order: Get rid of these thorns!The people below will be able to solve it immediately. After the report, the superior will definitely say that you are fast and capable!Look, you can be flattered and praised at the same time, killing two birds with one stone!
And if this person was sent by an adult in the family to understand the sufferings of the people, then he must quickly arrange for him to understand the sufferings. When this person went home and said, the adults felt that he did not let him come in vain, and felt that the small officials worked hard. I will also boast about it.Look, kill two birds with one stone again!
Since ancient times, small officials are as slippery as oil, and they do what they see.Once you want to "understand" something, you know what to do!
The clerk immediately led Long Aotian to the most dilapidated room. There was no bed in the room, only a pile of hay for Long Aotian to rest.

Long Aotian was taken aback, and said: "Can people live here?"

The little official replied: "The poor are suffering, life is like this. We have just opened here, and the conditions are not good. If more money can be allocated from above, then we can build a few more beds!" The importance of Aotian money, he went out.

Long Aotian was helpless, who made him have no money, thought: "Then deal with it overnight!"

He still doesn't know that there are pawnshops in this world when encountering such a thing, as long as he pawns his clothes or hairpins, he can have money to stay in the pawnshop, and he can deal with it overnight!Others only told him how to find a place to make do when he had no money, but didn't tell him how to get money, so he naturally didn't know.For the poor, who can make do without spending money, who would sell things?Save if you can!

Long Aotian sat in the haystack, sighing unceasingly, hungry again.When it was getting dark, the little official asked him to eat porridge, and he left the house.But as soon as I came out, I saw a long line of people, all holding bowls in their hands, queuing up to get the porridge!

Long Aotian was surprised, he hadn't seen so many people during the day, why so many people came when it was time to drink porridge!He didn't have a bowl, so the clerk gave him one, but he saw that the bowl was broken and dirty, so he didn't want it, so he went back to the house. If you're hungry, you'll be hungry, anyway, you can go home tomorrow, and then you won't be able to eat any more. Late!

After a while, the people outside finished their porridge and went to sleep in their rooms.Those who can come to Wuyou Tang are definitely poor people. They go out to find things to do during the day and come to sleep at night. No one will pick on the quality of the house, as long as it can shelter from the wind and rain, and the petty officials don’t interfere with which house they live in!
But tonight it won't work, there is a young master who has come to experience the hardships of the people, and they have to meet their needs!The petty officials specially found a dozen beggars and let them live in Long Aotian's house!
This night, Long Aotian didn't fall asleep at all, the smell and snoring in the room were too loud, he couldn't sleep, he wanted to go out several times, he would rather not sleep, just stand overnight, but It's raining again outside, changing seasons everywhere, and there's still hail, so I can't go out!
One night seemed as long as a year, until it was almost dawn, he couldn't stand it any longer, so he stared blankly for a while.But after a while, he felt cold all over his body, and when he opened his eyes, all the beggars in the room had left!
He slowly sat up, looked down, and found that his clothes were gone, his pants, shoes and socks, and the hairpin on his head were all gone!

He shouted: "I won't be stolen by the thief again!" There was only a pair of underpants left all over his body, the thief was quite interesting, and finally left one for him!
