The old Chinese doctor in the courtyard

Chapter 838: Fierce Fire Cooking Oil (Part )

Lao Gao has experienced a boring apprenticeship here, and also experienced the subsequent public-private partnership.

The wind and rain only retreated to Madianji Village after it hit its fiercest half.

After experiencing all this, Lao Gao can be considered an old athlete, and he understood the meaning of Li Shengli's words clearly.

After sighing that this medical overlord was extraordinary, Lao Gao could only follow Li Shengli's wishes.

If nothing else, it is not something that ordinary people can do, having the courage to support a population of outsiders that are more than the members of the commune, in the midst of wind and rain, between several villages.

It was his boss, let alone supporting outsiders. After losing his job, if he wanted to support his family, he could only survive by selling off his property.

I have never experienced this because I received subsidies from Li Shengli during the storm.

Although Li Shengli didn't get much money, he got enough food, and it was enough for people like Lao Gao who ran away.

Li Shengli also gave them some space, and mostly gave them fine grains such as rice and white flour.

A person's food is enough to feed his family if he goes to Pigeon Market to stockpile it.

When it comes to human sophistication, although Li Shengli doesn't show much on the surface, his actions are very subtle.

Lao Gao also knew this, so he didn't dare to take Miss Liu directly to Madianji.

Regarding the situation in Madianji, Wali, and Shanshan, Lao Gao was very tight-lipped about his old club, let alone the proprietors of those different brands.

There are some things that Lao Gao is not unclear about, but they just involve the name of He Niantang.

It also involves the medical lineage of the Wang family, who had some reputations in the city in the early years. There are some things that Lao Gao cannot explain in detail to those proprietors.

Let’s talk about the situation in Madianji, Wali, and the mountains, and talk about the origin of Wang Zhi, a descendant of the Wang family, not to mention that Lao Gao dare not talk about it.

Even if he dares to say it, those proprietors won't dare to listen.

When it comes to the details of wind and rain, many things are taboo nowadays. If you know too much, you will die quickly, and it will be easy to use at any time.

"Mr. Li, the connection between Heniantang and Xiheniantang has almost been clarified.

I have also helped you find a shopkeeper for Xin He Nian Tang.

This old man was also an apprentice of the Wang family when he was the proprietor of Henian Hall, and his name was Qin Gegen.

At that time, my family was also an innocent family in the suburbs of Beijing. After the Wang and Liu families changed owners, Mr. Qin worked as a medicine cabinet apprentice and became a runaway gentleman.

After that, I worked as the second store clerk of He Niantang for several years before I was kicked out because I wanted to protect my original employer during the public-private partnership.

If there had been no such entanglement, Mr. Qin would have been the chief shopkeeper of Xihe Niantang.

This old man's fate is also quite magical. He is six feet tall, has a face as thick as a jujube, and looks like a good man..."

Hearing that Lao Gao was talking about storytelling again, Li Shengli raised his hand to interrupt him.

Once he heard Qin Gegen's name, and heard that he could protect the owner and that he could be the second cabinet of Heniantang earlier, these were enough for Li Shengli.

Talking about someone who is six feet tall and can lift a cauldron is just nonsense, and it is useless to listen to it.

"Lao Gao, please stop talking nonsense.

How about this old age? Don't bring a senior who is eighty or ninety years old to come over. Then I won't be able to support you?
Let’s get to the point…”

Qin Gegen's name, based on Wang Zhi's name, is almost certain that the previous owner of the Wang family of Heniantang was related to the imperial physician Wang family.

This kind of naming method is just like in the palace, and it really treats people as if they are not human beings. Just come up with a random recipe and it will be a reference for naming.

Later, the Wang family continued to use this method, and I am afraid they do not know the origin of this naming method.

This is the same as the names of Chinese medicinal materials. In the early days, medicines used by imperial doctors did not use names such as Renzhongbai, Wulingzhi, Wangyuesha, Yemingsha, and Silkworm Sand.

Come up with names like urine scale, human excrement, rat excrement, bat excrement, etc. I'm afraid that the person's head will fall to the ground before the medicinal materials are put into the casserole.

This is just like the eunuchs and maids in the palace cannot be named after Ergou or Sanya. It is not only tacky but also brings disgrace to the royal family.

Choose some elegant names like Qingfeng Jiyue, and choose some words with the words "Puerhui" like "medicinal materials", which sounds high-end.

This is also the reason why the Wang family will no longer use Qin Zhongbai and Wang Lingzhi.

"It's just that this old man not only knows medicine and medicine, but also has good martial arts skills.

When this old man went out to work for He Niantang, he only took the assistants and not the escorts.

In various drug markets, Master Qin's name was also very famous in his early years.

This old man's official age is seventy-five. According to what he said, when he entered Heniantang as an apprentice, he falsely stated that he was three years old and was only seventy-two.

After finding him, I told him that He Niantang would be taken over by the proprietor of the Wang family, and he agreed without saying a word.

After that, I asked Mr. Dong to check his pulse. Mr. Dong said that his old physique and pulse condition are like those of a person in his fifties. He can still drink alcohol and eat meat. He is considered a person with a limited life span. He will live for another ten years. No problem. "

After hearing Qin Gegen's age, Li Shengli knew why Lao Gao wanted to talk about storytelling.

Nowadays, being over seventy years old is considered a long life for ordinary people.

It's not that there are no high ones, but there are only a few. Isn't the old man on the mountain over ninety?

Whether it is in urban or rural areas, seventy is really considered a long life.

There are quite a few people in the city who are in their 30s and 40s. The life span of a normal person is only 50 or 60 years. In today's rural areas, 70 years old is considered a blessing and a loss. Is it rare in ancient times to live to 70 years old?

"What will happen to this husband after the private partnership?"

Lao Gao was doing too many bells and whistles, and Li Shengli became a little suspicious, fearing that Qin Gegen's fortunes in recent years had been average.

“Just making do.

Fortunately, there were previous storms, otherwise I would have been like this..."

Regarding Li Shengli's question, Lao Gao also admitted that for some people, wind and rain are a disaster, and for some people, it is a way of survival.

Qin Gegen is good at martial arts, and if he is a little exposed in the wind and rain, he can probably make some money.

"Sure, please come and meet me!

If possible, I will try to give this guy a lesson. "

Today's pension issue is really a problem. Few workers are retired, and people like Qin Gegen are those who have no security in life.

If you save some money in the early years, you can still support your expenses. If you don't save some money in the early years, life will be difficult.

"This old man is alone..."

Hearing Lao Gao start squeezing out toothpaste again, Li Shengli waved his hand impatiently, ending the topic.

Afterwards, the two discussed the new name and the personnel and affairs of He Niantang.

When talking about the details of the business, Li Shengli was still a little impatient. He gave a perfunctory answer and sent Lao Gao away.

He is impatient with some mundane tasks, which is something Li Shengli recently discovered. During diagnosis and treatment, he can still remain calm and collected.

When it comes to secular affairs, he doesn't have much patience. Li Shengli thought about it and understood the crux of the matter. In the past, Li Guishou treated diagnosis and treatment as a hobby and career, and was not very concerned about other things.

Especially for some daily matters, it's okay when you are curious and willing to participate. When you meet someone who is not interested, he can just talk about it. But if you really get involved, you really don't have the patience.

When Lao Gao brought Qin Gegen to him the next day, Li Shengli knew why Lao Gao had talked about storytelling before.

The old man who is listed as seventy-five on the household registration book, but what stands in front of you is a man over 1.8 meters tall, with a dark red face and a long gray beard just below his chin.

Middle-aged people who still have muscle lines in their arms exposed by rolling up their sleeves will feel uncomfortable in their hearts.

After taking a look at Qin Gegen's appearance, Li Shengli glanced at his big bald head with red knife marks, which was obviously newly shaved last night.

The long gray beard just below the chin is also curly, with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, and the hands exposed by rolled-up sleeves have long and thick fingers.

He was wearing a grey, fluffy, patched short dress, which was washed quite cleanly.

The only thing on his feet was a pair of open mid-waisted Yuanbao shoes, which were considered to be half-new but not old. At first glance, they were exclusive to the martial arts industry.

When looking at people in martial arts, they first look at their eyes to see if there is any hostility; then they look at their hands to see if they have practiced extraordinary skills; and the last thing they look at is their feet.

Most martial arts outfits are full of tricks, just like the ingot shoes on Li Shengli's feet. Earlier, there were copper plates on the toes, heels, and soles.

If you kick like this, you will either die or be injured. The multiple copper plates on the soles are combined and there is no danger of being plotted. This is completely a variant of ancient combat boots.

Because he was not used to wearing them, the ingot shoes on Li Shengli's feet were only lined with cowhide and no longer had these little designs just for killing people.

The Yuanbao shoes on Qin Gegen's feet should look similar. Looking at the dark edges of the shoes, you can tell that the soles are made of hemp and are not the workmanship of a serious shoemaker.

Many times, there is nothing wrong with spending money, and there are many ways to dress up with short straps and shorts. Sometimes it is not an exaggeration to say that the design is vicious.

These little tricks and designs are not widely circulated, they are just legends from the true disciples.

But if it really happens, it's almost time to lose your life.

The Qin Gegen in front of him looked more like a mountain king than the second cabinet in a medicine shop.

Staring closely at Qin Gegen's yellow calloused fingertips, Li Shengli also moved his sitting posture slightly, and the heels of his feet also landed on the ground.

Following Li Shengli's movements, Zhang Ying, who had been leaning in the corner, also sat up straight and put his hands into his sleeves.

Seeing Li Shengli move, Qin Gegen, who had followed Lao Gao into the house, also took three steps back. This was another sign of courtesy in the world.

Next, if Li Shengli makes another move, it will be a fatal situation with blood splattered on the spot.

"Mr. Li, this is Mr. Qin Gegen.

Mr. Qin is the Mr. Li in the medical field..."

He saw Qin Gegen, who was following him, retreating without saying hello, and then he saw Li Shengli's hands spread out on his lower abdomen.

Even Lao Gao, who has some experience in martial arts, knew that there was a misunderstanding.

Although Lao Qintou's appearance cannot be said to be ferocious, he still has a ferocious appearance even if he is shaved bald.

But Lao Gao didn't know that Li Shengli was also a skilled charlatan.

Just by looking at the way he sat with his head bowed, and by looking at Lao Qintou who retreated again and again, Lao Gao knew that he had underestimated Mr. Li in front of him before.

Among the legends in the world, there are not many people who can force Mr. Qin to take the initiative to retreat.

In his early years, Lao Qintou was just like his appearance, and he was also a brave high-roller in the medicine market.

“Are the heirs of the Wang family still there?

Although I don't have enough food and clothing, I don't bother to work for a proprietor other than the Wang and Liu families.

The Liu family has been kind to me, and I have repaid this kind of kindness in the early years of the public-private partnership and in the storm.

The Wang family has given me the grace to teach me my career, and the whole life of my parents. But it is too late to repay this kindness now.

In my early years, I was indulged in secular affairs and scribbled out the search for the heirs of the Wang family. If you forgive me, I will definitely die. "

Listening to Qin Gegen's quarrel behind Lao Gao, Li Shengli took out the Toka Big Black Star from his waist, and then raised his hand to signal Zhang Ying to find Wang Zhi who was attending the consultation.

I'm afraid Zhang Ying wouldn't just leave the room without taking out the big black star of the Toka from his waist.

Seeing Li Shengli flash his pistol, Lao Gao's scalp went numb for a while, while Lao Qintou behind him stretched out his legs and sat on the ground.

Following Lao Qintou's actions, Zhang Ying passed him nimbly and stood outside the door shortly after leaving, but his hands were still folded in his sleeves.

When Wang Zhi came back, she saw Zhang Ying standing in the corner of the door with her sleeves rolled up.

Li Shengli, who was sitting at the main seat in the main hall, placed one hand on the pistol.

As for Lao Gao and Lao Qintou, one was standing at attention and the other was sitting on the ground with his legs stretched out. The scene was indescribably weird.

"Bai Zhi, don't go into the house, just stand at the door and ask questions."

When Wang Zhi came back, Li Shengli did not let her enter the room. Instead, he asked her to stand next to Zhang Ying and get involved with Qin Gegen who was sitting on the ground.

The reason is simple. The old Qin Tou sitting on the ground does not look or act like a seventy-year-old man.

Lao Gao said that he had falsely reported his age by three when he was an apprentice. Li Shengli felt that the tough guy sitting in the hall might have underestimated his age by twenty.

But in the early days, most of the early Chinese medicine apprentices or pharmacy apprentices started to work at the age of six or seven.

As you get older, you have more things to think about. It is not about relationship introduction. Neither Chinese medicine practitioners nor drug stores will recruit adult apprentices.

There is also an economic account here. You don’t have enough snacks when you are young. When you finish your studies and can eat, you can make money.

Just find a young man who can kill me. Maybe he will run away after he has learned the lesson.

While Qin Gegen and Wang Zhi were asking and answering questions, Lao Qintou also helped Li Shengli figure out the context of He Niantang.

The person who named and taught Qin Gegen was none other than Wang Zhi's own grandfather.

At that time, the Wang family of imperial doctors outside the city had a very close relationship with the Wang family of Heniantang in the city.

Wang Zhi's grandfather was also a famous doctor in the city at that time. Although his name was not well-known throughout the Forty-Nine Cities, he was not comparable to that of doctors from outside.

People go to Heniantang to sit in the hall and teach disciples, purely to support the appearance of Heniantang.

The kindness Qin Gegen mentioned in teaching him the profession naturally came from Wang Zhi's grandfathers.

As for the life-extending grace of Quan's parents, it was purely an accident. It was nothing more than Qin Gegen who devoted himself to He Niantang at a young age to survive.

The old man of the Wang family said that regular consumption of kudzu root can prolong life.

As for Qin Gegen's family, which is located in the Mentougou area outside the city, he did not have enough meals in his early years, so he went to the mountains to dig up kudzu roots to fill his stomach.

Along the way, I didn't suffer much hunger, and my life expectancy is longer than that of people in the same village.

In the face of difficulties, joblessness, and wind and rain, Qin Gegen survived by eating the kudzu he dug all the way.

Nowadays, although Old Qintou has a house in the city, he only lives in the winter. When the land is civilized, he digs kudzu roots on the mountain in his hometown to eat. He is also a god among the mortals...
