People in the Middle Ages, draw cards to get promoted

Chapter 518 Helping Others
  Through the bonfire, the woman saw the faces of the two people clearly. She couldn't help but open her mouth slightly and said in surprise: "Ah, you guys are so beautiful. You are just like angels."

  The woman's voice was a little weak, but her tone still revealed full enthusiasm: "Sorry, I have never seen such a beautiful person with such a kind heart."

  Lavinia pursed her lips: "You are also beautiful."

  The woman hurriedly said: "Two beautiful guests, please stay away from me. I'm sick and cough often. It's really rude. We don't even have a place to sit here, and we can't make a cup of tea for you two."

  Lothar smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."

  Lavinia asked: "What's wrong with you? Have you been to a clinic or a convent hospital?"

  Yorick looked a little embarrassed: "I haven't had time to go yet."

  Lavinia saw Yorick's expression and immediately understood that it must be because the medical fee was too expensive.

  Lothar listened on the sidelines and thought silently, adhering to the fine traditions left over from the Middle Ages, many doctors in Turin are undoubtedly quacks. It is better to rely on rural and folk herbal doctors to treat diseases.

  "Let me show it to you."

  "you?"

  Yorick looked up and down at this exquisitely dressed woman, unable to believe that she was actually good at medicine. In his impression, only bald-headed monks or alchemy geeks dressed like warlocks could do this skill.

  “When I was in college, my elective was herbal medicine.”

  Lavinia asked about the symptoms carefully: "When did you develop symptoms and how do you feel?"

  The woman recalled describing her symptoms.

  "Did you vomit?"

  "No, I just have chills and fever. I sweated a lot today and feel much better. I just have a cough that won't stop."

  Yorick interjected: "I think it's malaria. When I was in the country, a friend of mine suffered from this kind of symptoms. He was about to die. Fortunately, Bishop Urdin of Lombardy was at a free clinic and gave him a cup of quinine. Take Ningshui."

  Lavinia shook her head, held the woman's chin, and gestured for her to open her throat. After looking at it for a moment, she shook her head and said, "It's not malaria. It's a disease popular in summer, usually caused by mosquito bites."

  "You just happened to feel the cold when the temperature dropped suddenly."

  As she spoke, she took out the pen and paper she carried with her and wrote: "I'll give you a prescription."

  After carefully writing down the prescription and doctor's order, and watching Yorick fold it and put it away with great care, Lavinia couldn't help but remind her: "Remember to buy medicine from the shop in the back alley of Maple Leaf. The pharmacists there are quite good. It's pretty good, at least I won't change the prescription casually, and I won't sell Glodin to you."

  Colodian is a common cold medicine that contains a large amount of fushou ointment and bigma ingredients, which are used to relieve pain and relieve coughs.

  After taking the medicine, regardless of whether it is correct or not, the patient will at least feel much better. As for whether the disease can be cured or whether the medicine will be overdosed and become addicted, that is not something that the pharmacy needs to consider.

  Yorick quickly thanked you again: "Thank you, thank you very much!"

  Going to the hospital for consultation is sky-high, but if you have a prescription and go directly to the herbal medicine shop to get the medicine, the cost will be significantly reduced.

  Lavinia's last reminder is also very important. Wanderers, and even the vast majority of citizens, cannot tell which pharmacy is more reliable. Many pharmacies sell medicinal materials that are in short supply and are replaced with cheap ones without permission. Substitutes are commonplace.

  After Lavinia finished her work, Lothar said: "Yorick, now we can have a good chat."

  Yorick said quickly: "Of course, please tell me."

  At this time, Yorick was completely different from the vigilant and reclusive person he had been when they first met.

  Lothar said slowly: "Well, that's the case. Miss Lavinia plans to donate her salary to rent a large mansion that can accommodate hundreds of people near the suburbs. She hopes that it can shelter a large number of people." Let a group of people survive the cold winter."

  "But our capabilities are limited and we can only give priority to those who deserve help."

  Yorick asked: "So, you two are looking for, who is qualified to live there?"

  "That's it."

  He asked again: "Is it just a hundred people?"

  Lavinia hesitated slightly and held out three green fingers: "The maximum may be three hundred, but I'm still raising money."

  In fact, her initial budget was only enough to rent a house that could provide shelter for fifty people, but when she made the calculation later, she couldn't help but take some of her accessories and clothes into consideration.

  When she went to work the next day, she even opened her mouth to some colleagues, and even wrote a letter and borrowed some from the patriarch who was always kind to her.

  So, fifty people became a hundred people, and then three hundred people.

  Lothar was nearby and did not speak.

  He planned to look at the situation, and if he was really short of money, he could pay for it out of his own pocket - but to be honest, he would rather be a thief with Lavinia than dig into the reserves in his system mall.

  "Three hundred people, that would be great!"

  Yorick's face showed an excited look: "I know some wanderers nearby, and quite a few of them are honest and reliable farmers. They come from the same village as us. They are never lazy when serving crops. They are all here now." Working in nearby factories, they can support themselves, but all they need is a shelter to avoid the wind and cold.”

  After hearing the good news, the woman's face turned a lot more rosy: "If Tris and Tessie and the others knew this news, I don't know how happy they would be."

  "Thank you, thank you very much!"

  Speaking of this, the woman couldn't help but choked up: "Madam, you don't know how many friends we have lost recently. Some of them managed to save a lot of money, but they were taken away by robbers. Many of them fell asleep. When Tian found out early in the morning, his body was stiff, and Yorick actually felt uncomfortable. Several times, acquaintances and friends from the same village came to him for help, but he refused with a cold face."

  As she spoke, she couldn't help but burst into tears: "I buried little Daisy with my own hands. If Yorick had promised to lend them some money, maybe little Daisy would not have frozen to death."

  Yorick gently patted his sobbing wife.

  He did not explain why he was unwilling to donate generously. In these days, no one is better off than anyone else. As long as an opening is opened, more people will come to open their mouths. If they refuse, they will inevitably turn against each other.

  As a father and a husband, he has to prioritize fulfilling his responsibilities.

  The woman sobbed softly and couldn't help coughing again: "Ahem - I'm sorry, Yorick, I don't mean to blame you, I just... I'm just sad."

  Lavinia said softly: "You are a kind person, and you will recover."

  "Thank you for your blessing, beautiful lady."

  Yorick also thanked him seriously, and then said: "I will make a list for you as soon as possible. What are the selection criteria?"

  "Honest, reliable, and kind. In short, the character must be decent. Life there will be a collective life in the future. If a black sheep gets mixed in, it will not be a good thing for anyone."

  After Lavinia finished speaking, she added: "Yorick, I will pay you thirty lire as compensation for hiring you not to work tomorrow, but to collect lists."

  She said as she went to Tao's wallet.

  Yorick said quickly: "Please, please take your hand back, just to give us some basic self-esteem. If we ask for a little remuneration for trivial work from the benefactor who has given us kindness, then we will He is truly as lowly as dust.”

  Lothar also smiled and said: "You are not rich now, so just take it back." Lavinia paused and said apologetically: "Okay."

  Leave the alley.

  Lothar laughed and joked: "If we had enough money to open a large glass factory or textile factory, we could house more homeless people, instead of being so tightly packed like now."

  When we first met Lavinia, although she was not a lavish spender, she was the kind of person who didn't care much about spending.

  When we meet again today, we will start to compare money with each other.

  In Poseidon Square, which was full of small vendors, she was not even willing to spend three liras to buy a snack. The roasted nuts that Lothar bought for her were not finished until she entered the arena.

  Lavinia said seriously: "I told you, no need."

  "Miss Judge, are you sure you don't want to think about it seriously anymore? Those rich people who are greedy for wealth don't need so much money at all. Isn't it good to spend the money on the poor people who need it more?"

  Lavinia ignored Lothar's fallacies and walked on the snow-covered road, making a creaking sound.

  "Then Miss Judge, if I made a large amount of money through theft and decided to participate in your business, would you personally send me to prison?"

  Lavinia's steps paused slightly.

  She hesitated for a long time before saying, "I don't know."

  To be fair, she wanted to say no, but what was the difference between asking Lothar to steal and then give her the money, and her going there herself?
  But for this reason, I want to take this friend, whom I have just met, but feel very close to, to court, and even put him in jail. Can I really be so cruel?
  She raised her head, her brown eyes filled with seriousness.

  "Losa, I need some time to think."

  Lothar smiled, nodded and said, "Okay."

  In his opinion, Lavinia is actually quite a naughty person. As a judge, she has a strong sense of justice. However, the laws of the city-states under the wolf clan are mostly "evil" to safeguard the interests of the ruling class. Law".

  At this time, adhering to the law becomes something contrary to justice.

  Lavinia suddenly said: "Losa, what kind of person is Ms. Jeanne?"

  "Ah, this"

  Lothar didn't know where to start.

  Because the first adjective he came up with was "very smooth".

  "Don't you have deep contact with her?"

  "That's not true. You can even lend me the power of the Holy Spear. If you say that the relationship between the two of us is not good, you won't believe it. But how can I put it? She and you are different from what most people imagine. .”

  A gentle smile appeared subconsciously on Lothar's face: "She likes drinking very much. Sometimes she is glib and likes to tease beautiful girls. She often sits on the table with a bottle of wine in an inelegant posture, and seems to be like everyone. We can get along very well with each other and have extraordinary intuition on the battlefield.”

  Lothar said Xu Xu.

  Lavinia listened attentively and sighed from time to time.

  "Losa, you must like Ms. Jeanne very much, right?"

  Lothar was stunned for a moment and admitted frankly: "Indeed, I like her very much. To be precise, I rarely meet people who don't like her. If you see her, you should also like her very much."

  "Except Fringilla."

  He added silently in his mind that little girl Flynn seemed to have a bad relationship with all the women around her except Chelinia.

  "I'm talking about the kind of love between men and women."

  "Correct."

  Lavinia breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was more or less a trace of disappointment in her heart, she still felt more calm.

  Admittedly, in her opinion, Lothar was one of those rare men who she felt very harmonious with and made people want to get close to him soon after they met him, but she had never considered finding a boyfriend at all.

  For her, there are too many things that are more important and worth investing in than things between men and women.

  Now that Lothar said this, she no longer had to bother herself and think about the troubles she would feel if Lothar confessed his love to her one day.

  Lothar joked: "Your reaction will make me sad."

  Lavinia was a little embarrassed, and asked with a smile: "Then what kind of reaction should I have? Extremely disappointed? Devastated? How long have we just known each other, and you are so confident in your own charm?"

  "You should feel a little disappointed no matter what."

  The two walked side by side, chatting as they walked.

  Snow quickly covered their shoulders and hat brims.

  "I'm almost there. Thank you for sending me off today, otherwise I might have to work overtime."

  At this time, the probability of something unexpected happening to a woman walking alone at night is not small. With Lavinia, who has a slim figure and is extremely charming even if her face cannot be seen clearly, the probability is much higher than that of ordinary women.

  "You're welcome, Miss Judge."

  She tilted her head, her broken hair falling down from her forehead, and asked curiously: "Don't you know my name? Why do you always call me that?"

  Lothar said with a smile: "Always calling me by my full name doesn't sound friendly enough."

  "You can call me Nia."

  "Okay, Nia."

  The two smiled at each other.

  "Okay, send it here."

  Lavinia pointed to an apartment building in front of her and said, "I live on the fourth floor, in the third room on the left. If you need anything, you can come here to find me. If I'm not here, I'll be in the office."

  Lothar also wrote down the location of his temporary residence and handed it to Lavinia.

  "Good night, Nia."

  "Good night, Lothar."

  They waved their hands, turned their backs, and walked away.
