Chapter 289: No Way to Have It All (1/2)



"Hurry up!" The leader couldn't understand the names of the herbs on the paper, so he just glanced at it and handed it to the man with the red armband next to him.

"Yes!" The man with the red armband originally wanted to show his face in front of the leader, and now he took the paper and left without stopping.

"I also need a big pot to cook the medicine." Su Miaomiao looked at the leader again.

"That's easy. I'll have someone send it to you later." The leader agreed without saying a word.

"By the way, we need some clean water," Su Miaomiao reminded again.

"Okay." The leader agreed one by one, "As long as you can cure the patients here, I will prepare whatever you want!"

"With the leader's words, I will naturally not let you down." Su Miaomiao's eyes showed a hint of smile.

“…”

With the strong support of the mining area leaders, Su Miaomiao quickly set up a big pot next to the resettlement area.

The Red Armbands also sent over the first batch of medicinal materials, which were collected from the mining area.

There was only a small part, so Su Miaomiao did not delay and immediately lit the stove and started to boil the medicine.

Generally speaking, decoctions have to be decocted one dose at a time, but there are so many patients here that if they have to be decocted one dose at a time, many people won't even get a turn.

Su Miaomiao had no choice but to use a big pot to boil the medicine. Although the medicinal properties were a little worse, at least more patients could drink the medicine.

Su Miaomiao is responsible for boiling the medicine, while Huo Minxue and the workers who are in charge of taking care of the patients are responsible for feeding the medicine.

Even though Su Miaomiao had diluted the medicinal properties, the herbs sent over were still only enough for half of the people to drink the medicine.

"Leader, there are not enough medicinal materials." Su Miaomiao went to find the leader of the mining area.

"I have already asked someone to buy some, and it may take some time." The mining area here is relatively remote, and it is quite far to travel to the county.

"Yeah." Su Miaomiao nodded. Without medicine, there was nothing she could do.

"How are the patients who took the medicine doing?" the leader asked.

"The drug doesn't work that quickly. I guess the effects won't be seen until the evening."

"Yes." The leader nodded.

He didn't leave either, and stayed with Su Miaomiao all the time, busy here.

By evening, the people who went out to buy medicinal herbs finally arrived.

Among the first batch of patients who took the medicine, most of them had their fevers subsided. Although some patients in serious conditions still had their fevers not subsided, their spirits were obviously much better and the frequency of their coughs was reduced.

After seeing the results, the leaders of the mining area became more determined. They fully supported all of Su Miaomiao's decisions and did the work themselves.

The group worked until nightfall and finally managed to feed all the patients medicine.

The leader felt that he couldn't even bend his waist, but when he looked at Su Miaomiao beside him, she was still calm and composed, without any sign of fatigue on her face.

"Su Zhizhi, your physical strength is really good." The leader said with a smile.

"Fortunately, I pay attention to exercise regularly." Su Miaomiao was cleaning up the medicine residue.

These medicinal residues can also be boiled in water for foot soaking. Now that resources are scarce here, we can only make the best use of them.

"I am indeed old, and cannot compare with you young people. Su Miaozhi, is your medical skill inherited from your family?" The leader of the mining area had some free time at this moment, so he wanted to know more about Su Miaomiao's situation.

"Learn from the teacher."

"Is that so? Then your teacher must be very good. What's his name?"
