Chapter 269 Yu Qianli disguises himself as a disaster victim and lurks beside Xiao Ying
That day, she asked Xiao Qian to take Xiao Jin, Xiao Sheng and six others to raid the pawnshop, including the organization behind it.
The strength of these people should not be underestimated. I believe it is no problem for them to destroy a mere pawnshop.
As for the people in the pawnshop, they were all released, and their property was all taken over by a few people. These money stained with blood and tears could be used to resettle disaster victims and build villages and towns.
In the house, Xiao Ying sat in the main house, looking at the four people in front of him with an indifferent expression.
These four people were the old doctor and his wife, the old scholar, and the young shopkeeper.
It must be said that these four people were a timely help to her, just enough to fill the vacancies in the academy and the clinic.
The old doctor and his wife were named Chang Qinglin and Luo Yuelian, and they were about fifty years old.
Both of them were good at medicine and ran a clinic before fleeing the famine.
But now he looks hunched, pale and thin, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is just skin and bones.
The old scholar was in his early fifties. His name was Zheng Zeliang. Before fleeing famine, he was very popular in the village and made a living by teaching children in the village.
Perhaps because he had suffered a lot in the pawnshop, the old scholar coughed from time to time, and his whole body was shaking.
The young shopkeeper was called Li Qian. He looked to be in better condition and was in his early twenties.
He is very thin and frail, with a pale complexion. He has a handsome appearance, but is still inferior to Ling Yun, Ning Yuanchen and others.
"I've heard about your story. Now that you've come to me, as long as you work hard, I won't treat you unfairly."
Xiao Ying looked at everyone one by one. The four of them lowered their brows and looked submissive, revealing their worries about the future.
Before being caught and taken to the pawnbrokers' market, they were considered to be well-known people in their hometown and never thought that they would become slaves one day.
Now that they have entered the mansion and their indentures are in someone else's hands, their life and death and future are no longer in their control.
"Our village is currently building a college and a clinic. I plan to send you there once they're completed."
Upon hearing this, three of them raised their eyes in surprise. This small village actually had a school and a clinic?
If that were the case, they would be put to good use without having to worry about being discarded due to age!
The young shopkeeper was a little envious. He had no medical skills and was not a scholar. Would he be useless in the future?
"Madam, can we really go? Will other people in the village disagree?"
Zheng Zeliang asked with joy and worry, and Chang Qinglin and his wife had the same idea.
Xiao Ying said meaningfully, "Don't worry about this. I paid for the construction of the academy and the clinic, and I will naturally arrange for the teachers and doctors as well."
The three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They already knew Mrs. Xiao Ying's identity and naturally had no doubts.
"You should take good care of your health during this period. Once the academy and the clinic open, you will probably be very busy."
"When you start working, food and lodging will be free, and the monthly salary will be five taels of silver."
"But there is one thing I must tell you first. You must teach everyone your skills without reservation."
"Especially you two doctors. I know you are a stickler for keeping your medical skills secret, but that's not the case with me."
The three of them were originally very happy after hearing the previous words. Five taels of silver per month was not a small amount, which showed that the lady valued them very much.
But when they heard the last sentence, Chang Qinglin and his wife frowned.
Aren’t they going to the clinic to see patients, but to learn medical skills?
The couple looked at each other, and Chang Qinglin couldn't help but ask immediately.
"Ma'am, aren't we going to the clinic to see patients?"
Xiao Ying said: "Seeing patients is only one aspect. The most important thing is to cultivate more talents and let more people understand medicine."
"Don't worry about being too busy. I will find other doctors to work with you, and I will teach you all my medical skills without reservation."
The couple's faces turned even uglier. Their family also insisted on not passing on medical skills to outsiders. They would rather break the inheritance than leak it casually. They didn't expect to encounter such a request today.
But they were just servants of Mrs. Xiao and had no right to refuse.
Xiao Ying naturally saw what they were thinking, so he gave them another sweet date.
She casually took out a bottle of pills, which were the Peiyuan Pills for strengthening the body and replenishing the vital energy. They were useful for cultivators, not to mention ordinary people.
"This is a pill I made, called Pei Yuan Dan. Each of you will take one."
"After taking it, it can quickly restore the body and has the effect of restoring vitality and rejuvenation for the elderly."
Of course, if you only take one pill, the rejuvenation will definitely not be obvious. If you want to prolong your life, it is better to use the longevity pill.
The purpose of giving these pills is, firstly, to make these people recover as soon as possible, and secondly, to let them see his methods and thus become more loyal.
Third, it is to arouse the interest of Chang Qinglin and his wife and make them want to study it.
Sure enough, four pairs of eyes lit up at the same time, full of surprise and disbelief!
Especially Chang Qinglin and his wife, they couldn't wait to take the pill for research. Does this pill called Peiyuan Dan really have such an effect and can make people younger?
How is this possible? !
They have studied medicine all their lives and have never heard of such a thing. Isn't this a method that only gods in the legend have?
Is this an elixir?
Chang Qinglin's breathing became a little rapid. He stared at the pill in Xiao Ying's hand without moving, completely attracted.
Xiao Ying smiled, and Kang Ruolan immediately distributed the pills to the four people.
Chang Qinglin and his wife looked at the round pill in their hands, which exuded a fragrance they had never smelled before, and felt a little intoxicated.
"Madam, this, this..."
Chang Qinglin was very excited and full of questions, but he didn't know where to start.
"I said I won't treat you unfairly. As long as you follow my instructions and work hard, there will be other rewards in the future."
Xiao Ying hung a carrot so he wasn't afraid that they would disobey.
"I know it's not easy for you to go against the rules of our ancestors, so I will compensate you. If you are interested, you can study this Peiyuan Pill in the future."
Chang Qinglin and his wife looked at each other again. Although they were still a little conflicted, they were obviously beginning to waver.
If they could really get the recipe for this elixir, they might be able to step back.
"Ma'am, we are all at your disposal."
In the end, Chang Qinglin couldn't resist the temptation to accompany Yuan Dan and gritted his teeth and agreed.
Xiao Ying nodded slightly, not at all surprised, and looked at the other two: "The same goes for you two."
"Yes, ma'am."
Zheng Zeliang had nothing to hold back on. This was how teaching and educating people should be.
"Madam, then I..."
Perhaps because he saw that no arrangements had been made for him, Li Qian became a little anxious.
Xiao Ying glanced at him and said calmly, "Go help out at the soap workshop first. I'll pay you one or two taels of silver per month for now. If you have real skills, I'll treat you well in the future."
She actually lacks such management-savvy people, especially since she is about to build a food workshop and hasn't decided who to put it in charge of.
If Li Qian is capable of being of great use, he can be promoted, but we have to observe him first.
"Yes, ma'am."
Li Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was not disappointed because he had much less money than the other three people, which made Xiao Ying look at him with a higher regard.
"There's no room left in the house, Ruolan, please send them to stay at the workshop."
"Yes, ma'am."
Kang Ruolan took the order and immediately went out with the four people.
When he turned around, the corners of Li Qian's lips rose slightly, but he quickly returned to calm.
