Chapter 136 The hero's best mother (Twenty-three)
Gu Qingcheng took out two prescriptions, one was Xiaoyao Pills and the other was Qingling Pills.
The former is used to soothe the liver and strengthen the spleen, promote blood circulation and regulate menstruation, and is mostly used to treat many diseases caused by irregular menstruation in women.
The latter has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, relieving cough and reducing phlegm, and is suitable for many diseases caused by wind and cold.
Both prescriptions are excellent and are the most effective and advanced prescriptions in this time and space.
Mrs. Cui is a veteran beauty lover and she loves Gu Qingcheng very much.
They were willing to cooperate with her without even asking anyone to verify the prescription.
However, this does not mean that Mrs. Cui is not rigorous and careful in her work.
After reaching a preliminary cooperation with Gu Qingcheng, Mrs. Cui found several famous doctors in the county to verify the two prescriptions.
Several doctors studied the prescriptions carefully and prepared the medicines themselves. After some practice, they all praised the two prescriptions.
Especially the Qingling Pill, which is almost like a "panacea".
No matter whether you are old, weak, female or young, no matter what the cause of the "poisoning disease" is, taking it can relieve the symptoms.
It may not be able to cure the disease directly, but by alleviating the symptoms, it can buy the patient time.
Then the doctor can save the patient by preparing a suitable prescription based on the patient's specific cause of illness.
Originally, several doctors were curious about what kind of doctor could come up with such a prescription.
Later, I heard from Mrs. Cui that the original owner of the prescription was an old wandering Taoist priest, who passed it on to a barefoot doctor, who then improved it.
Barefoot doctor! Somewhat like the emergency doctor of later times.
It's not about specializing in a certain field, but knowing a little about all subjects.
The doctor named Zhao Guodong has been practicing medicine for more than ten years and has never had any accidents. It is probably because of this Qingling Pill.
This type of pill is suitable for almost all patients and is a common pill for home and travel.
Of course, Xiaoyao Pills are not bad either.
In this era, due to rules and other reasons, it was not convenient for women to see a doctor.
Ordinary people don't really understand the common knowledge about gynecology.
When a woman gets sick, she doesn't even dare to make it public, and there will be no professional doctors to treat her.
With Xiaoyao Pills, problems such as dysmenorrhea, irregular menstruation, and symptoms such as chest and flank pain, dizziness, etc. caused by menstrual blood can all be treated.
For women who have difficulty in seeking medical treatment, this is simply a "miracle medicine".
"Xiaoyao Pills are worthy of their name!"
Several doctors praised the ingenuity of the prescription.
After much verification, Mrs. Cui confirmed that the prescription was excellent, and only then did she feel relieved.
Then, she opened a clinic on East Street, the best street in the county.
She hired several doctors to treat patients and prescribe medicines. In addition to normal treatments, they also sold prepared medicines - Xiaoyao Pills and Qingling Pills! Mrs. Cui had a shrewd shopkeeper under her. She was a county lady, and now she had her own signature finished medicine. She definitely had the best of both worlds.
Business was booming as soon as the pharmacy opened.
Especially the two kinds of pills, their sales have been rising steadily, to the point where almost every household has one!
Gu Qingcheng used two prescriptions to invest, and Mrs. Cui originally wanted a 50-50 or 60-40 split.
Gu Qingcheng shook her head firmly, "Sister Cui, I can't take advantage of you. The entire store was built by you, who spent money, hired people, and purchased medicinal materials. My prescriptions only account for a small part."
"Besides, I originally gave you this prescription as a return gift. You are a kind person and are willing to take care of me, so you asked me to invest in the company with the prescription."
"You're good to me, and I want to be good to you, too! Just give me one share."
Gu Qingcheng's attitude was firm and her eyes were sincere. Her words made Mrs. Cui very happy.
Hehe, such a beautiful Sister Gu is a pleasure to look at every day.
She also said, "I want to be good to you, too."
So, Sister Gu also likes me as her sister?
Experienced face lovers have long been defeated by attacks of beauty.
The villain in Mrs. Cui's heart cheered and jumped for joy, and directly treated Gu Qingcheng as her best friend.
She wanted to take care of her best friend, but her best friend also felt sorry for her.
Oh, this kind of two-way friendship is simply too addictive.
Although she understood Gu Qingcheng's intentions, Mrs. Cui was still worried that her best friend would suffer.
After much persuasion, she and Gu Qingcheng finally split the profits in a 70:30 split.
Mrs. Cui got the lion's share, while Gu Qingcheng drank the soup and had a bite of meat at the same time.
Both parties were happy, the only one who was disappointed was Zhao Qingyun——
Where was the promised pillar of support? My mother and the wife of the county governor became "sisters", opened such a large clinic, and even had a signature product, and made a lot of money in just one month.
Zhao Qingyun took the recipe for making ice and found a way to go to the provincial capital to buy it. As expected, he got two hundred taels of silver.
But, these two hundred taels are nothing compared to the dividends my mother gets from the pharmacy every year.
Not to mention, in Qian's scam, not only was my mother not deceived, but she also received 120 taels of "compensation" for free.
Not only did the family no longer have a financial crisis, but they became very well-off.
And the gifts that Mrs. Cui gave to the two brothers Zhao Qingyun and Zhao Qingsong were all silver grains of various patterns.
I added up the grains of silver and weighed them. Wow, it was a full ten taels.
A month later, my mother received the first dividend from the pharmacy.
Normally, a newly opened shop will take several months to make back its investment.
But the pharmacy's business was so good, especially the two ready-made medicines, which were popular throughout the entire county.
Not only did I recover my capital within a month, but I also made a small profit.
Mrs. Cui was very happy and distributed the dividends in proportion in advance.
The amount given to Gu Qingcheng was not much, only less than fifty taels.
People in the Zhao family’s old house: ...Zhao Qingyun, you little brat, listen to what you are saying.
Fifty taels is not a lot? The total assets of our family and several branches are less than fifty taels.
Otherwise, the whole family would not have taken turns to work like slaves for Gu's mother and son! Fifty taels was already a huge sum of money for an ordinary country family.
But for the largest and most profitable pharmacy in the county, it really is nothing.
Of course, although Zhao Qingyun said it calmly, he was still very happy because he received nearly fifty taels of silver in dividends in the first month.
Because, he silently calculated——
My mother should have 240 taels, and the two brothers should have 10 taels, plus this dividend.
That would make up three hundred taels.
The two-story courtyard that my father had always dreamed of was priced at three hundred taels.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In order to raise money, my father ended up in an accident.
This incident was deeply engraved in Zhao Qingyun's heart.
He seemed to have an obsession with that courtyard.
However, the mother is now the head of the Zhao family, and it is not appropriate for Zhao Qingyun, a "little child", to interfere in major family affairs.
On this day, Zhao Qingyun's private school was closed, so he read and practiced calligraphy in his study.
As for Zhao Qingsong, he was doing horse stance in the yard.
This child doesn't like reading and doesn't like practicing martial arts.
He just likes money and is obsessed with doing business.
Gu Qingcheng told him, "Erlang, do you think you can only rely on your brain and mouth when you go out to do business?"
"No! You need to be strong and able to fight and run!"
"Think about it. If you were to go out to do business and encountered bandits or horse thieves on the way, if you are not strong enough, you would have a hard time even escaping, not to mention saving your property!"
"You should exercise your body first."
Zhao Qingsong is only six years old.
The little child was fooled by his own mother and actually thought it made a lot of sense.
Yes, if you want to do business, practice martial arts first.
This way, when you go out to purchase goods in the future, you won’t be harmed by thieves.
Zhao Qingyun: ...Although I know that my mother doesn't have such a high IQ, she was probably frightened by some of the strange stories of murder and robbery in the market, so she persuaded her youngest son to practice martial arts.
However, when he saw his innocent mother coaxing his equally ignorant younger brother, he inexplicably found it interesting.
These are his family, his responsibility, but they are no longer a burden! "...Da Lang! Let's go to the county!"
Just as Zhao Qingyun was studying and occasionally lost in thought, his innocent and weak mother walked in gracefully.
"To the county?"
Zhao Qingyun’s first reaction was: What new ideas did his mother have?
During this period, my mother always seemed to be able to "hit the mark by accident".
Her various strange words and deeds not only did not cause her family to suffer any loss, but instead made the family earn a lot of money.
However, this does not mean that my mother is really great.
Zhao Qingyun always feels that the most reliable thing for a person is the knowledge and skills he or she possesses.
Rather than "luck".
Some time ago, my mother was lucky and turned a bad thing into a good thing.
But this kind of "good luck" will not last forever.
Zhao Qingyun never dared to completely let go of her worry, fearing that her mother would get into big trouble that day because of her confusion and gullibility.
So, when Zhao Qingyun heard his mother's excited look on her face as she was going to the county town, the string in his body suddenly tightened.
"Mother, what's going on at the pharmacy? Or is Aunt Cui looking for you to go over to the theater?"
Putting down the pen, Zhao Qingyun tried to get some information.
Gu Qingcheng looked mysterious, "You'll know when you go there!"
Zhao Qingyun raised his eyebrows. Oh no, my mother has learned to keep people in suspense?
However, my mother is not someone who can hide her thoughts.
Her delicate face was filled with smiles, and her beautiful eyes were filled with the word "proud".
happy event?
What happy event is there in their family? Zhao Qingyun's mind was working quickly.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he seemed to have thought of something.
but--
Is it possible? With my mother's simple nature, could she think of this? However, Gu Qingcheng's "wonderful" performance over the past month or so still gave Zhao Qingyun some hope.
A'niang is just a little stupid and confused, and easily deceived.
Her heart is extremely sincere.
This is true for Mrs. Cui; it is also true for him and the Qingsong brothers.
This is especially true when treating Zhao Guodong, her deceased husband!
With fantasies in mind, Zhao Qingyun pulled Zhao Qingsong, and the two brothers supported Gu Qingcheng, and they got on the only mule cart that operated part-time in Zhaojiazhuang.
We swayed all the way and arrived at the county town at noon, and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard...
