Chapter 299 It’s Hard to Say
Jin Congcong, who rushed over, felt so happy when he saw Guo Shuangwen was so angry that he couldn't say a word. Now, every time he thought about how he saved that princess, he wanted to slap himself twice.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Jin Congcong looked at the baskets of copper coins and hesitated as he took out a silver note from his pocket and handed it over: "This is what I exchanged for at the largest pawnshop in this town. Have someone exchange it for copper coins and distribute them to the victims."
Bu Bu's eyes widened: "Brother, you don't have any money, so where did these banknotes come from? I don't want any that don't come from a good source."
Jin Congcong said with a pained look on his face, "It came from a good source. I sold the things I bought before, but I couldn't bear to part with the jade hairpin that Ruo'er gave me, so I had to keep one or two for myself. These are almost enough."
"Luckily, every town has its own bank and pawnshop, otherwise I'm worried I wouldn't be able to exchange that much silver."
"Take it, take it. From now on, I won't save people casually. I will follow you and Jin to buy paper and pens for those schools that specialize in accepting children from poor families, and buy food for the children in those charity halls. Although the merits may not be great, they will add up to a lot. The most important thing is safety."
"If I go out and rescue that lousy princess again, I'll be sick to death, not to mention Ruo'er."
Bu Bu looked at him sympathetically and said, "Brother, please remember what you said. Although some things are destined by heaven, maybe you can escape this disaster?"
Jin Congcong felt that there was something else behind Bubu's words, and before he could ask, he saw the little guy running away with the silver note.
"You people of the Great Zhou are really interesting. You're willing to sell your own things to help others. Do you think that helping others will make your life better? Will you be happy? I really don't understand what you're trying to achieve."
Jin Congcong was already feeling the pain of selling something, and he became even more furious when he heard Guo Shuangwen's sarcasm.
"What do you care about me? I can spend my money however I want, why are you here talking nonsense?"
"You're so broke now, yet you're jealous when you see others with money. Don't forget that you still owe me eight taels of silver. A princess of a country who owes a debt and still has the nerve to stand here and yell at people is really ignorant."
"Get out of the way, get out of the way. I need to go to the medical tent to see if there's anything I can do to help."
Bu Bu looked up at Jin Congcong's leaving back and asked worriedly: "Aunt Bi'er, is it really okay for Senior Brother to go to the medical tent? Is he sure that he is going to help?"
Bi'er was also helpless: "Even if your senior brother can't learn it, at least he grew up with the miracle doctor. Even if he can't do it anymore... after the doctor prescribes the medicine, he will definitely be able to bandage the wound."
Bu Bu curled her lips in disdain: "The disciple of a great doctor has to ask the doctor to prescribe medicine for an external injury. I wonder if Grandpa will be furious if he knows."
"By the way, my mother is in the medical tent. I hope she won't kick my brother out when the time comes."
Bier looked up at the gloomy sky: That’s really... hard to say.
When Guo Shuangwen heard Bier say that Buruo was also making a fuss in the medical tent and wanted to go, the envoy held on to the last glimmer of hope and did not try to stop him.
He always felt that their princess had become like this because she had been raised in the palace and had never known the sufferings of the world. If she could experience the people's feelings, would her attitude change? Now, whenever he compared the three-year-old little prince and princess with his own princess, his face would burn, as if he had been slapped twice.
But what he didn't know was that human nature... is difficult to change.
Jin Congcong trotted all the way to the medical tent. As soon as he reached the door, he heard many people wailing in pain inside and hurried in to help.
When Guo Shuangwen arrived, Jin Congcong was bandaging the victim: "Your powder is not working. It can only stop the bleeding but not the swelling or the pain. He must be in so much pain without such a big piece of flesh."
The doctor knew Jin Congcong's identity and explained helplessly: "What the young doctor Jin said is true, but we are just ordinary doctors. We don't have such high-grade powder that can stop bleeding and relieve pain, and we don't know how to make it."
"Doctors are kindhearted. It's been raining heavily in Yicheng for five consecutive days. I heard it was so heavy that you couldn't even open your eyes. Some of the victims who lived at the foot of the mountain were buried by the landslide. It was the Regent and his soldiers who arrived in time to dig them out."
"But there are so many disaster victims in Yicheng. Some of those with minor injuries who can walk have spontaneously organized themselves to go to nearby towns, hoping to reduce the burden on the disaster relief camps and medical camps there. They are really... really pitiful."
"Little Divine Doctor Jin, there are herbs that the princess brought over. Just go and mix the powders that can stop bleeding, reduce swelling, and relieve pain. We all swear here that we will never learn or dabble in anything else. Please rest assured, Little Divine Doctor Jin."
Jin Congcong was so anxious after hearing what the doctor said. If he was qualified, would he still be so anxious here?
He now regretted so much that he wanted to slap himself. Why didn't he memorize those prescriptions? That way, even if he didn't know how to make the medicine, he could tell the doctor and ask them to make it for him.
He doesn't care whether he learned it secretly or not, he just wants to save people now.
Guo Shuangwen stood at the door of the medical tent, holding his nose. "See? Even the miracle doctors are only so good. They're afraid that others will learn their skills, so they don't dare to prescribe medicine to save people. They're just people seeking fame and reputation."
The envoy said nothing. He knew that some doctors had their own unique skills. If others learned all of them, what would be the use for him? Not to mention the miraculous doctors in the martial arts world, even the imperial physicians in the palace would not teach everything they knew to their disciples.
What's more... he had heard of Jin Congcong. Rather than believing that the other party was unwilling to prepare the medicine on the spot because he was worried that others would steal his skills, he actually believed that... the other party would not do it.
Sure enough, when Jin Congcong saw another injured victim being carried in, he turned around and ran out of the medical tent, and glared at them fiercely when he saw them.
"You! Come here, yes, yes, don't look at others, I'm calling you."
Jin Congcong pulled a soldier over and said anxiously, "Go to the Fulai Inn, which is closest to the government office, and find a man named Cen Nan. Tell him that Dr. Jin asked you to get some medicine."
"Take...take...just tell him there are three medicine boxes and two gray bundles in my room and ask him to bring them all to you."
"Also, have someone go to the porridge stall at the government office to see if the young prince and the young princess have finished their work. If they have, invite them over and tell them that their senior brother wants to see them for something important, something to save their lives."
The soldier was stunned and turned around and ran without saying a word. He was so fast that he seemed to be flying.
Doctor Jin, this is Doctor Jin, he is the apprentice of Doctor Du.
