Only when Manager Yu looked at the young master with a beaming smile and a satisfied expression did He Cong finally manage to lift his arm.
It turned out that while he was drinking water, Manager Yu quietly added rice to his bowl, and he actually ate two bowls!
I ate more food than I did the previous two days.
Manager Yu liked it more and more as he looked at it.
Thinking that if the young master loses his appetite again in the future, he will ask Ruan Meng for help. It's just a matter of giving back some money. Money is a small matter, but the young master's health is the most important!
When everyone was too full to eat anymore, a waiter slowly came in the morning.
Manager Du's expression changed upon hearing this. He was about to explain when he took his leave. He Cong looked up.
"We're all family here, what's the matter? Speak!"
Manager Du gestured for the shop assistant to repeat it.
It turned out that the He family's merchant ship encountered danger when it docked. The entire hold was leaking. Since the hold was full of cargo, including not only the He family's own goods but also many goods being transported by other companies, there were certain losses that required compensation.
In addition, the ship tilted, and many crew members fell into the water when it approached the shore. Two of them were hit by the mast and were rescued but were unconscious.
He Cong's expression immediately changed. "Where is he?"
The waiter replied, "We dare not move him easily. He's lying on the shore, and the men are guarding him. We'll go back and ask Manager Du whether to call a doctor or..."
The waiter didn't finish his sentence, but He Cong's expression changed.
"When did our He family stop valuing human life? When something happened, the first thing we did was call a doctor, otherwise, we just lay there waiting to die?"
He Cong's voice was filled with anger.
The man dared not utter a word.
Manager Yu reassured the shop assistant and explained to He Cong, "Young Master, now is not the time to be angry."
"It's been years since anything like this happened on our merchant ships. The crew is completely disoriented and lost their bearings. Perhaps they just don't know which doctor to call and are afraid of our wrath..."
The man nodded. Medical care in the city was expensive. If he took it upon himself to hire a doctor, and the injured man ended up bedridden for three to five years, not only would his employer blame him, but he would definitely lose his job...
Manager Yu remained calm and bowed to Ruan Meng, "Miss, you are the closest to us, and we trust your medical skills. Could you please make a trip for us? I'll have Xiao Kai drive the carriage."
Manager Yu added, "We will not refund a single penny of the consultation fee."
Ruan Meng turned her head and asked, "What are you saying, Manager Yu?"
He got up and left, and the second son quickly followed.
Manager Du chased after them, thought for a moment, and then told Du Xiaocan and Ji Qing to follow, "You two go and lend a hand!"
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingyu's clear, cold voice came from behind, "Let's go together!"
Several horse-drawn carriages sped along the road and quickly arrived at the scene of the incident.
The two injured men lay on the shore, protected by their companions.
Not far away, there were piles of wet goods, which must have just been pulled out of the water.
The ship was tilting, but it was being held up by the reins to prevent it from capsizing. The craftsmen were studying the breach in the long hull.
Ruan Mengfei quickly got off the carriage and ran to the injured. She quickly examined the two men and found blood clots in their brains. Using the needle bag she carried with her, she pierced their heads to clear the blood vessels.
As the two gradually regained consciousness, Ruan Meng looked behind her and saw Du Xiaocan, feeling relieved.
"Can you remember the name of the medicine I'm about to give you?"
Du Xiaocan nodded solemnly. Ruan Meng reported that Du Xiaocan and Ji Qing went back to get the medicine.
Xiao Kai found paper and pen, and Ruan Meng wrote down the acupuncture treatment method and handed it to Manager Yu.
"Manager Yu, both of them are seriously injured, with blood clots in their brains. They need acupuncture and medicine for half a month of treatment."
"I've written down the acupuncture treatment here. Xiao Can and Ji Qing can go back and get the medicine."
"These two need to rest and should not be moved easily. I suggest arranging for a doctor to come to their home daily for acupuncture and herbal medicine, with adjustments made as needed. If there are still problems after half a month, they can come to me."
Upon hearing this, Manager Yu felt much relieved and immediately assured him, "We will definitely follow the young lady's instructions and treat them properly! Our employees are the foundation of our He family business, and we will certainly do our best to treat them!"
I heard that acupuncture was to be arranged. Ruan Meng just finished her acupuncture. As long as the arrangements for tomorrow and beyond are made, there won't be any problems.
As soon as Manager Yu turned around and faced Manager Du, before he could speak, Manager Du stepped forward and took the initiative to say:
"It's alright! It's a small matter. I'll coordinate it when I get back. The doctors on their days off can come over for acupuncture and a check-up. It won't take much trouble."
Manager Yu was extremely grateful, but this was not the time for formalities.
Manager Du personally directed Manager Yu to arrange for people to find two planks of wood to carry the two injured men back.
To prevent the impact from escalating, Manager Yu dispatched manpower to transport all the goods back. Any damaged items were compensated in advance to stabilize the customer base. In less than half an hour, the shore was empty, with only the tilting merchant ships remaining.
