Chapter 932: Doing a Big Deal
Jiang Xiaoxiao washed her hands. She treated all the burns, knife wounds and other injuries together.
It was already daybreak.
All the villagers in Linjia Village are now gathered around the threshing ground. The moment Jiang Xiaoxiao washed her hands and looked up, all the villagers knelt in front of Jiang Xiaoxiao.
The several white-haired clan leaders of Linjia Village who were in the lead kowtowed hard to Jiang Xiaoxiao.
"Master Jiang, the people of our Linjia Village have done such a shameful thing to you, and it is immoral, but you can still forgive us and help us. We are really ashamed. Master Jiang is a truly virtuous person.
Mr. Jiang is a gentleman. All of us in Linjia Village would like to thank Mr. Jiang for saving our lives."
Jiang Xiaoxiao asked Li Tieniu to help the man up.
"Fellow villagers! Everyone has their own opinions on who was right and who was wrong in the past, but now it involves human lives. No matter how much hatred there is between us, human lives are more important than anything else. These people have basically recovered now. Those who need to take medicine are taking medicine, and those who need injections are getting injections.
But why hasn’t the doctor you invited come yet? I don’t have that much medicine left. If the medicine runs out, I’m afraid these people’s lives will be in danger.”
Jiang Xiaoxiao used the limited medicines to give fluids and injections to several critically ill patients, but if the others did not cooperate with the drug treatment, the injured would have to rely on themselves to survive.
That's probably difficult. In this day and age, a cold can kill people, not to mention that this is likely to be tetanus or inflammation, which can really kill people.
"Here he comes. Here he comes. The doctor has returned."
A carriage stopped and an old man with white hair and beard rolled down from the carriage.
His face was pale, and one could tell at a glance that the old man was exhausted from the long journey and was almost shaken to death.
"How could you barbarians do this? Look at my master, his intestines are about to come out. Are you here to call a doctor, or to kill someone?"
A little medicine boy jumped down from the cart, carrying his master's big medicine box and hurriedly carried it on his master's back, while angrily yelling at the villagers from Linjia Village who were driving the cart.
It looks like they are really going to fight to the death with these people from Linjia Village.
The villager driving the cart said, "Doctor, please save people first. Saving a life is better than building a ten-story pagoda. The villagers are really waiting to save their lives."
The old doctor almost vomited out all his bitter bile, and seeing the other party's hesitant expression, he didn't say anything.
The patients' family members usually behave like this, waving their hands and signaling the children around them to stop talking.
"Okay, okay, stop talking and take me to see the patient."
When the old man saw the threshing floor full of patients, he was shocked. Why were there so many injured people?
However, seeing that all the injured had received simple treatment and bandages, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He had never seen such bandaging before, and the wounds on some of the injured people's arms were still exposed.
An ugly centipede-shaped wound was a little shocking to him, but his eyes were filled with great interest.
He had seen some doctors who treated wounds, but they usually let the wounds heal on their own.
He had never seen such a method of suturing like this before.
If nothing had happened to him, he would have been able to recognize that this was definitely a wound that had been stitched with a needle.
Can you use an embroidery needle to sew up the wound like cloth?
Jiang Xiaoxiao felt relieved when she saw the doctor coming, as she had almost finished her medicine.
There are only a few pills left in the medicine box.
She had to keep it just in case, of course she couldn't contact her little devil now.
It would be nice if the little devil could bring something for her when he comes over.
There is no shortage of supplies now, including food and drink, but there is still a shortage of medicines and medical equipment.
Jiang Xiaoxiao directly asked Li Tieniu to leave.
Most of the help has been given, and the rest is up to the doctor. Each person only receives one bottle of medicine for the infusion. The needles have been removed long ago, and the rest depends on the doctor's skills.
Li Tieniu drove the carriage and respectfully invited Master Jiang back to their village.
Back in the village, the tightly closed door opened immediately.
Someone on the wall had already seen them returning and immediately welcomed them back.
After hearing about the tragedy in Linjia Village, many people were still frightened and looked at the high walls of their own village.
After thinking about it, if it weren't for these city walls last night, the robbers might have stopped by their Lijia Village for a visit, and they would probably have suffered the same fate as the Linjia Village.
In his heart, he was extremely grateful to Mr. Jiang for his wise consideration of Li Tieniu.
The young men in the village intensified their training. In their minds, protecting their homes and families is the top priority.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaoxiao, Li Tieniu and several other important figures in the village held a small meeting.
From the situation in Linjia Village, they probably knew that there were many bandits around. It seemed that the bandits were in trouble this time because Linjia Village helped them to avoid disaster. After all, the reputation of Linjia Village making a lot of money recently spread, so many people probably had their eyes on Linjia Village.
But once word of the robbery in Linjia Village spread, the other bandits had to make other plans.
By that time, I'm afraid the first place to be targeted would be their Lijia Village.
At this time, we can only intensify the villagers' practice.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaoxiao sent Li Tieniu and a few others out to visit the surrounding villages and collect some food.
Storing more food can also help deal with future crises.
For example, when the village was surrounded, they still had food and drink, and they also hired two old well diggers to dig wells for them in the village.
The only water source for their village is a well at the entrance. If the village is surrounded, the water source may be cut off. It would be better to dig two wells near the mountain to ensure their resource supply.
Li Tieniu whispered to Jiang Xiaoxiao with some embarrassment that the village's money had been almost used up, and the money that had been taken out would cost a lot just to build those high walls.
There are 400 more mouths to feed in the village. They have to buy a lot of food just for the food. If they continue like this, they will really run out of food.
Jiang Xiaoxiao said nothing more, needless to say, they are smuggling salt again.
Since everyone has money, and there are so many able-bodied men this time.
Just do something big.
They directly brought back the smuggled salt and transformed it into snowflake salt, which they then sold to more distant places inland.
What the rich areas within the Great Wall lack is snowflake salt.
But this takes time. Jiang Xiaoxiao needs a vigorous battle to scare away the bandits who covet Linjia Village.
They can leave in peace.
Jiang Xiaoxiao dared to leave.
I can also ask if there is any news about the 10th.
