"Girl, the festival is over, the pharmacy is stable, and it's time for us to get busy with our own work, right?"
"Master, are you bored staying in Fulai Village?"
"That's not the case. It's just that Master's hands are itching to work. He is destined to be a hard worker. He has to grab the old trade."
"Master, we won't be returning to the capital. Can we open a medicine shop in Changle County?"
"That's a good idea. Have you thought about it a long time ago?"
"Well, I can't leave the pharmacy for the time being, and the county town is close to home so it would be more convenient if there's an emergency."
"That's right. Then I have to go back to the capital first."
"Master, is there something urgent?"
"Isn't this the letter your senior brother sent to Butler Huo? This guy is pretty good. His wife is pregnant. Haha... This kid is also stupid. His wife is not even two months pregnant and he's already telling everyone about it."
"What? Senior Brother has a child! This is a great thing! Congratulations! Master will soon become a grandfather."
"And congratulations on becoming an aunt soon too."
"Haha, yes, I'm going to be an aunt."
"Master, can we name this medicine shop Baicaotang?"
"You... you are so thoughtful, kid. Okay, why not take back your original name, Baicaotang? You've followed Master for half your life..."
The next day, Liu Yuhan went to Changle County and spent three hundred taels to buy a shop with a backyard. The shop was located between the South City and the North City, and the location was quite good.
The old man took the Li Dazhu brothers and a group of young men to buy the shelves and furniture needed for the shop and backyard.
Liu Yuhan wrote "Baicaotang" by hand and went to the old place to get a plaque.
It took half a month to do this.
During this period, he also went back to the provincial capital with his master to congratulate his senior brother and his wife on their pregnancy, and also went to the Huo Mansion.
Before Liu Yuhan returned to Fulai Village, he did not say hello to his senior brother and his wife. He left a lot of food in the courtyard where they lived, including homemade rice, flour, cornmeal, vegetables, fruits and dried goods.
There are also some precious medicinal herbs, such as ginseng and angelica, of course these herbs are now reserved for future use.
I also left a list of ten things pregnant women should pay attention to, which I copied from Baidu, and attached a list of recommended diet and recipes for pregnant women during pregnancy.
It is conceivable that when Ah Fei and his wife saw these gifts and words, they were deeply moved and their eyes were slightly red.
Liu Daling found an auspicious day and opened his pharmacy.
Butler Huo, along with Huo Nan, Huo Bei, and a group of guards, presented the plaque with the words "Miraculous Hands Bring Back Spring" with great fanfare, attracting a crowd of onlookers and much discussion...
"Is this really the Huo Mansion in the prefectural capital? Is it the Huo Mansion of the Huo Family Army?"
"You are ignorant, aren't you? You are from another place? The Huo Mansion is of course the one belonging to the Huo Family Army. I recognize Butler Huo."
"Is this the second and young masters of the Huo family?"
"I heard that the young master of the Huo family has fallen seriously ill and has never left the house..."
"Could it be that this plaque means that the doctor from this pharmacy saved the young master of the Huo family?"
"Well, I guess you're right. Otherwise, why would they send such a large number of people to send a plaque? Even people came with them..."
"That's settled, how about we go check Ping An's pulse?"
“I think it’s feasible…”
"I'm going too. I have a sore throat and can't sleep well."
"Hearing you say that, I feel a little unwell..."
Liu Yuhan...
Doctor Liu expressed great satisfaction. This Huo boy was very much to his liking and was very capable.
Liu Yuhan followed his master's instructions and boldly hung the plaque in a conspicuous place in the store.
The master and apprentice didn't have time to entertain Huo Nan and Huo Bei before they started dealing with the gossiping crowds that came into the shop...
Taking pulses, diagnosing illnesses, and selling medicine...I was busy for almost a whole day before I stopped.
In addition to the master and apprentice and Liu Yun who has been learning, there is also Qingdai who was trained by Su Zi Sumu. This little girl has made the fastest progress and has memorized almost all the medicines in the pharmaceutical factory. Although she has a cheerful and lively personality, she is extremely serious in doing things, which is what Liu Yuhan admires.
Fu Wa also helps out at the pharmacy. With his baby face, he's meticulous, cheerful, and kind. He has a heart injury, and Doctor Liu is prescribing medicine to help him recover.
A notice recruiting a medicine boy was posted at the door of the pharmacy, and a medicine boy was hired the next day. The master and apprentice "interviewed" him together.
The medicine boy's name was Lin Yuanzhi, he was fifteen years old and from Changle County. His family had been in the medicinal materials business, but his parents had passed away due to illness, and he now lived with his grandmother.
He is quite familiar with various medicinal herbs, not only their names, but also their medicinal properties and preparation methods.
Liu Yuhan looked at the thin young man, who spoke eloquently about medicinal herbs, with a clear gaze and a sharp figure, and knew that this person was the right one. The master nodded at her, and the person was decided on the spot.
The layout of the drugstore was modeled after the Dejitang in the city. There were medicine shelves behind the counter in the front hall, filled with Chinese medicinal herbs labeled with their names. Liu Yuhan reserved a place specifically for ready-made medicines, which were pills and powders made in the pharmacy.
Opposite the counter, there is a long row of wooden benches. If there are too many people and they need to wait, patients can sit there to rest and wait.
One half of the pharmacy is separated by a wooden screen, and the back is divided into three rooms. Two of the rooms are used as doctor's consultation rooms, and the larger room has three simple wooden beds as backup.
There are four rooms in the backyard, including living rooms and a main hall, as well as a separate kitchen and utility room. There is also a shed next to the utility room where horses can be temporarily tied up. There is a well in the yard.
There is a door in the backyard wall. When you open the door, there is a large field not far behind. The rice is growing well at the moment. Hehe, I wonder if it is hybrid rice?
There is a road here, and other people's carriages next door are also stored outside the courtyard wall. This is good, as it is convenient for transporting goods or storing carriages.
