Chapter 245: Pharmacy Opening
Lan Xiyue sat quietly by the side, disinfecting the delicate and sharp surgical tools, and then putting them into the space.
The effect of Ma Fei San was gradually dissipating, and Lan woke up slowly in the middle of the night.
Lan Xiyue looked at Lan Shenye, who was frowning, and said, "Brother, are you awake? The numbing powder has worn off, and your legs will feel pain. If you feel uncomfortable, I can give you another acupuncture to numb the pain in your legs."
Lan Shenye forced a smile, even though his face was as pale as paper. "No, I can still bear this little pain."
The fear of losing consciousness was greater than the immediate pain.
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue didn't say anything more. She called Xiao Muzi over and gave him some detailed instructions. However, she was still a little worried. "Brother, I asked An Yi to buy a house outside. When An Yi comes back, you can move in. Take good care of your legs. I'm worried about you staying in the mansion."
Lan Shenye heard this, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, "Yueyue, I'm in the mansion, what are you worried about?"
"Brother, there are so many people in the mansion and they are all gossipy. I'm afraid they might disturb you unintentionally and affect your recovery. In short, just listen to me."
Lan Shenye's face turned pale, but he forced a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Brother, you should have a good rest." Lan Xiyue said goodbye softly, turned and left the room.
Outside the door, Chuchun saw the young lady coming out and hurried forward, "Miss, something bad has happened. Someone is here to collect a debt. Many people are gathered at the gate to watch the excitement."
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows when she heard this. It seemed that Lan Zhenrong still hadn't collected enough money to pay for the gambling these days. "It's none of our business. Let's go out of the house."
Her medicine shop has been renovated, and she has to work hard to earn merit. She doesn't care about the mess in the marquis' mansion.
System: "Dear host, keep going, you have 300 merits now."
Lan Xiyue's mouth corners curled up. It seemed that she had earned a hundred merits for treating her brother's leg. Not bad, she didn't think it was too little. Anyway, the pharmacy had been renovated now. From today on, she would go to the pharmacy to see patients and start earning merits.
"Cloud Thunder!"
Yun Lei emerged from the darkness, clasped his fists, and said, "I am here, young lady, what are your instructions?"
"Guard my brother's yard and don't let anyone disturb him."
"yes"
Lan Xiyue changed into men's clothes and quietly left the house through the back door with Chuchun and Chuxia, who also changed into men's clothes.
As soon as they reached the door of the pharmacy, "Yueyue!" Qian Duoduo's familiar voice came, with a bit of unconcealed joy. She trotted over and said, "Yueyue, your pharmacy is opening today, and I came here early this morning."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Duoduo clapped his hands lightly, and all of a sudden, the streets were filled with the sound of gongs and drums, and several majestic lion dances came leaping and dancing to the passionate drum beats.
The people were attracted by the sudden excitement and stopped to watch, their faces filled with curiosity.
The lion dance performance gradually stopped, and the onlookers held their breath. Lan Xiyue slowly walked forward and lifted the red silk.
The big golden words on the signboard "Specializing in treating difficult and complicated diseases" catch the eye.
The people looked at the sign curiously and talked about it.
A commoner muttered, "A pharmacy that specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases? So it's a pharmacy. Can it really treat difficult and complicated diseases?"
Lan Xiyue took out the key, gently inserted it into the door lock, pushed open the door, and walked in. "Chuxia, take this sign to the side of the door and put it away."
Chuxia responded and took the sign out and placed it on the side of the door.
The words on the sign instantly caused a bigger sensation.
Someone exclaimed in surprise: "The opening hours are irregular, it depends on my mood. A consultation costs one thousand taels, and a treatment costs five thousand taels? If they can't cure the disease, they won't charge you? My God, isn't this just robbery?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers began to discuss the matter. Some shook their heads and sighed, saying that the pharmacy was asking exorbitant prices. How could anyone open the pharmacy to do business and have to wait for the mood to open it? Others were skeptical about the idea of not charging money if the treatment was not good.
For a while, among the crowd gathered in front of the drugstore, there were both doubts and curiosity, and they talked a lot, saying that this drugstore was simply robbing people, it was too expensive, and it would definitely close down after a few days.
Chuchun and Chuxia were a little anxious when they heard the people talking outside. Chuxia said, "Master... Young Master, the people outside are pointing fingers and saying that our medicine shop is too expensive and will definitely close in a few days."
Lan Xiyue sat on the chair, not caring at all.
Qian Duoduo snorted, "What do they know? Yueyue is a miracle doctor. In my opinion, this amount of money is not enough."
Chuxia and Chuchun looked at each other helplessly. "Miss Qian, your family is rich, so of course you don't care about this little money. But ordinary people can't afford it."
Just then, a servant walked in and asked, "Can you really treat difficult and complicated diseases here?"
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows, "Of course."
"My master has a constant headache every day, and many doctors have seen him but to no avail. Since you can cure all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases, please come to our mansion and see our master."
Lan Xiyue said nonchalantly, "I won't be seeing patients, so you can ask your master to come here."
The servant frowned when he heard this, didn't think much about it, and then walked out. Their master had seen many doctors, but none of them could cure his disease. His master had an unbearable headache every day. He had to go back and talk to his master about this newly opened pharmacy and let him try it.
Not long after, a servant came in, supporting a middle-aged man in fine clothes with a pale complexion.
The middle-aged man staggered and was obviously unwell. The servant helped him sit on a chair, then stepped aside and stood respectfully.
The middle-aged man's name was Wang Fugui. In his early years, he was the chief escort of a well-known escort agency in the world. With his extraordinary courage and martial arts, he accumulated a considerable fortune.
Later, he got tired of the life of swords and spears, so he used his saved money to buy a large piece of land, rented the land to the people for cultivation, closed the escort agency, and lived a life of luxury as a master.
However, recently, he has been suffering from splitting headaches every day, and has visited many famous doctors but there has been no improvement.
After Wang Fugui sat down, he looked at the person opposite him and frowned. This person looked so young, could he really cure difficult and complicated diseases? Could he be a charlatan? Even if he was a charlatan, he would still give it a try. The headaches he suffered every day made him uncomfortable.
"Doctor, money is not a problem, as long as you can cure my headache." As soon as Wang Fugui finished speaking, he took out a thick stack of silver bills from his arms and handed it to Lan Xiyue.
Lan Xiyue took the silver bills and counted them. There were ten silver bills of one hundred taels each, totaling one thousand taels.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She put the banknote into her sleeve and said in a calm tone: "Extend your hand, I'll take your pulse."
Upon hearing this, Wang Fugui quickly stretched out his right hand and placed it on the table.
Lan Xiyue placed her slender fingers on his wrist, closed her eyes and concentrated, taking his pulse carefully. After a moment, she withdrew her hand and her eyes became solemn.
