Chapter 1055: Rumor Refutation
After Dashan finished his speech, he didn't wait for the crowd to disperse. He found an excuse to get up and planned to go to another place to give his speech, leaving them to discuss it here.
As soon as he squeezed out of the crowd, he saw Bai Shan and the other two.
As soon as the two met, without saying a word, Bai Shan turned and walked towards a quiet alley, and Dashan hurriedly followed.
The four young men met in the alley.
Bai Shan asked, "What's going on outside?"
Dashan said, "I was just about to ask you, how many people have you hired to make you famous?"
Bai Shan said, "I'll invite you."
"That's impossible. People on the street have been talking about this since yesterday. We haven't even had time to go to some of the markets yet, and the story of the little miracle doctor has spread everywhere, and it's getting more and more outrageous."
Dashan said, "Although I can be a bit exaggerated, I wouldn't go so far as to say that. I was just saying, you must have been tricked."
He looked at Bai Shan and the other two with a knowing look on his face and said, "You can hire two groups of people if you want. As long as you pay me enough, I won't blame you."
Bai Shan: "...I thank you, but I really didn't invite anyone other than you. Do you know who those people who spread the message with you are?"
Dashan was stunned. "You really didn't invite me?"
He went to look at Manbao and Bai Erlang standing beside him.
The two nodded. It was already expensive enough to invite them, and how much would it cost to invite another group?
They are not fools, they won't spend so much money.
Dashan didn't think much about it. When he heard that they weren't the ones who invited him, he exclaimed, "Then it must have been your friends or family elders who invited them. But they definitely don't understand our business and they've hired someone who's really wrong. You don't know, they didn't tell the whole story at all, just spread bits and pieces here and there."
Bai Shan looked at him and asked, "Do you know who they are?"
"Didn't I tell you that they spread the word here and there, without spending much time on it and staying for a short time, so you can't find them at all."
In fact, he also wanted to find someone to see who was competing with him for business, but several times, he had clearly spotted someone, but lost them after following them for a short distance.
He also asked people nearby, but those uncles, aunts, grandparents didn't know that person at all.
Dashan said regretfully, "You might as well go back and ask your elders or friends who paid for your invitation."
The three of them understood as soon as they heard it. They looked at each other. Mr. Zhuang would definitely not do this without telling them, and they didn't have such a good friend here.
So who is it?
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "You've done a great job. Since they've already spread the word, you should just follow suit and dispel the rumors."
Dashan blinked, "Refuting the rumor?"
"That's right. First, I didn't cut open his stomach. I performed an abdominal laparotomy. The two are different. He was bleeding from his internal organs at the time. Neither acupuncture nor medication could stop the bleeding. There was blood accumulating in the abdominal cavity, so I had to perform an abdominal laparotomy."
Dashan was stunned when he heard this.
Manbao continued, "Secondly, blood can't be donated casually. It has to be compatible blood. It's best not to donate the blood of a close relative. Besides, the amount of blood each person can draw is limited. Do you know the bowl we usually eat from?"
Dashan nodded blankly.
"It's such a big bowl, one person only needs to draw three bowls. You don't use a knife to draw blood, you use a needle and a knife to draw blood," Manbao said hesitantly. "It's possible, but I think it's hard to stop the bleeding. What if you donate blood to someone and die from excessive blood loss? That would be such a pity."
Dashan: "...Who would donate their own blood to others?"
How much meat would be needed to get that blood? That's why he was reluctant to give it to her.
"Finally, I really want to share this medical skill with others. If anyone wants to learn from me, please share your unique skills with me."
Dashan was stunned. "Communication?"
"That's right. Medical skills can only improve through mutual exchange. Anyway, just spread it like this," Man Bao said. "Although they have made me famous, their statements are vague and mostly fabricated. You should just follow behind and dispel the rumors."
Dashan hesitated, "How do I calculate the payment? How far do I have to go in dispelling the rumors? You have no idea how powerful they are. In just one day and one night, the rumor spread throughout several towns and markets."
"I know, because I was stopped when I went to Jishiditang today."
Bai Shan thought for a moment and said, "You should take your men out to dispel the rumor every day. Spread it two to five times in a busy area of the market. After five days, no matter what the result is, you can come to Changqing Lane to collect the remaining money."
Dashan's eyes lit up, and he immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, young master. We are here to stay for a long time and will not fool you. We will definitely handle this matter well. In five days, we can help you dispel the rumors in several important markets in the outer city, not to mention the inner city."
Manbao expressed his satisfaction and stuffed the copper coins left over from buying food into his hand, saying happily, "I'll treat you to some tea."
Dashan was happy when he took the money.
Seeing him running away, Bai Erlang pointed to the way home and asked, "Going home?"
Bai Shan and Man Bao shook their heads fiercely, swallowed their saliva and said, "Why don't we go to another market and see what the rumors are like outside."
Both the gentleman and Grandma Liu were so scary, Manbao decided to go back later.
Bai Shan also felt that the longer they could hide, the better, so the two of them pulled Bai Erlang into the carriage and asked Daji to go to another market to see the situation.
At this time, the people who had gathered in Jishiditang slowly dispersed, and the only ones left were the patients.
The young shopkeeper Zheng's hair was already disheveled. He returned to the backyard and sat down on a stool. The big shopkeeper Zheng straightened his clothes and led three doctors out to take his place.
Seeing that his father had gone out to harvest his fruits, Shopkeeper Xiao Zheng sighed sadly, grabbed a handful of his messy hair, and turned back to the house to clean up.
Although the drugstore was not in a mess, many tables and chairs were squeezed out. Manager Zheng didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, but after thinking carefully, he seemed to be more happy.
Given Manbao's personality, she definitely wouldn't leave Jishitang in the short term. Now that a miracle doctor has emerged in Jishitang...
Manager Zheng was very happy just thinking about it.
It's just strange, how come this suddenly became so widespread?
Manager Zheng thought for a moment, then called a waiter over and said, "Go back to the mansion and ask the masters there to find out what's going on outside and who's spreading rumors about Doctor Zhou."
The guy took the order and left.
At this time, the old emperor, who had just finished his political questioning in the palace, was holding a piece of paper and laughing. He took the note and said to Gu Zhong with a smile on his face: "Okay, withdraw everyone and don't make too much trouble. This will be good."
Gu Zhong agreed with a smile.
The next update will be around 4:00 PM
