Starting From Longevity, Gou Dao Becomes Immortal

How could this young man not be surprised that a "savage" could read and write.

But then the expression on his face became surprised.

Literacy is good.

Now the apprenticeship in the medical hall is settled.

Baicaotang is the largest medical center in Tai'an City, even the apprentices of the medical center can read and write.

After all, people who can read and write can learn things like medicinal herbs much faster than people who can't.

But it is very difficult to find such a person in Tai'an City.

So this job advertisement has been posted for almost half a month, and no one has come.

Otherwise, the young man didn't dare to sleep just now, did he?

Really hopeless about this.

In the past, the apprentices of Baicaotang were all trained from an early age, first taught literacy, and then taught pharmacology, self-sufficient.

It's a pity that there was an accident in Baicaotang this year. Two apprentices were killed by robbers when they were out.

The hands suddenly became tense.

It was obviously too late to cultivate by myself, so I took the road of recruitment.

But half a month later, both the young man and the shopkeeper of Baicaotang were almost dying of worry.

Finally, a literate person came here today, and finally settled his worries.

So the young man impatiently grabbed Lu Xiao's hand, intending to drag him into the hospital.

"Junior brother, you are here. Let me tell you, during this period of time, I am alone and wish I could be split in half..."

While pulling and nagging.

Just like that, Lu Xiao was dragged into the hospital in a daze by the young man.

On the way, he also knew the young man's name, Zhang Shuisheng.

"Master, Master, I've recruited someone." As soon as he entered the gate of the medical hall, Zhang Shuisheng shouted at the top of his voice.

Then Lu Xiao heard an old man's voice coming from the back hall.

"Okay, you bring the person over to show me. Besides, you are lazy and have stolen almost. Your junior sister is cooking medicine in the backyard by herself, and she is almost overwhelmed. Hurry up and help me."

Zhang Shuisheng shouted: "Master, you are wrong, I have worked so hard to recruit people, I am not lazy."

After talking, the two entered the back hall.

There was a long queue in the medical hall, spreading to a desk in the back hall.

There sat an old man, who was taking the pulse of a child.

"I don't know you yet. The recruitment notice is posted at the door. You don't need to look after it. Those who meet the requirements will come in by themselves. Are you going to sleep again? If you are lying, you will be fined to copy the Herbal Classic a hundred times." While checking the child's pulse, the old man exposed Zhang Shuisheng's lies.

Using the word "you", it seems that Zhang Shuisheng does this kind of thing a lot on weekdays.

I saw Zhang Shuisheng chuckled, and then said to Lu Xiao: "Junior Brother, you wait here for a while, and then talk about your business after the Master sees his illness. I will slip away first, and I will give you your donkey too." Take it to the backyard, don't worry, it will never be lost in our Baicaotang."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Shuisheng hurriedly left the back hall and walked towards the backyard.

Just now Lu Xiao was hurriedly pulled in by him, while the donkey was still standing outside.

But Zhang Shuisheng can think of this, obviously he is not bad.

After he left, Lu Xiao quietly stood in front of the old man, waiting for him to finish seeing the patients one by one.

After two full hours, the old man in the middle didn't even drink his saliva.

Nearly forty patients were seen.

Look, smell, ask, and then prescribe a prescription.

In the middle, Zhang Shuisheng came to the back hall once in a while. After taking the prescription, he hurried out to grab the medicine and boil it.

After all the patients were greeted, it was almost night.

At this time, the old man rubbed his wrists and shoulders, and stretched his waist by the way.

Lu Xiao didn't stand still, picked up a warm teapot from another stove beside him, poured a cup of hot tea for the old man, and brought it over.

This teapot was prepared by Zhang Shuisheng.

Every time he came here before, he would pour a glass for the old man, but the old man was too busy to take a sip, and every time he let it cool down, he was replaced.

This time, the old man finally picked up the tea that Lu Xiao poured down.

Meimei took a big sip and let out a long breath.

Then he asked Lu Xiao, "What's your name?"

"Lu Xiao." After answering, he added tea to the old man's teacup.

This time the old man didn't drink directly, but continued: "That's right, don't be impatient, be patient, and wink. You are a good candidate to study medicine. You are sure to become an apprentice in my medical center."

After waiting for a full two hours, he was not in a hurry. The old man was very satisfied with this.

Lu Xiao just nodded and hummed, and didn't say anything more.

The old man continued: "But my medical school apprenticeship is very hard. My medical school does not make money. You can only do odd jobs for the first two years as an apprentice, with a monthly salary of thirty cash. After that, you will learn pharmacology for the next three years, with a monthly salary of fifty cash for five years." Afterwards, even if you are qualified, you can only do some work of gathering and boiling medicine. If you want to sit in a clinic and practice medicine, it will take at least ten years. If you are doing it for money, studying medicine is definitely not suitable for you."

This is another reason why it is difficult for Baicaotang to recruit apprentices.

The money given is really too little.

In Tai'an City, even a waiter in an ordinary inn would earn around sixty to eighty cash a month.

Being an apprentice in Baicaotang really doesn't make any money.

There were actually a few literate people who came here before, but unfortunately they were all scared off after hearing the conditions of the old man.

From the old man's point of view, even if Lu Xiao is willing to be an apprentice, he probably won't be very happy.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao asked directly: "Does our hospital take care of food and lodging?"

The old man was stunned.

After a while, he nodded and said: "Naturally, two meals a day, accommodation is also a separate house."

Lu Xiao nodded: "Just take care of the food, but I have a lot of food, I don't need money, but I have a donkey, if you take care of his food, I will be his apprentice."

Hearing this, the old man said: "Although our medical center is not rich, it doesn't miss your food expenses. The donkey's food is also taken care of, and the wages are paid accordingly. If you want, you can apprentice now."

Lu Xiao stared: "A teacher?"

The old man's beard curled up: "What? I'll teach you skills and let you learn from a teacher. Is there a problem?"

Lu Xiao thought about it, and it made sense.

It seems that the old man is not looking to recruit apprentices, but to recruit apprentices.

This is also good, you can learn the real skills.

Regarding the question of apprenticeship, Lu Xiao has no opinion.

This is a matter of course.

Immediately Lu Xiao no longer hesitated, cupped hands bent down, and bowed respectfully to the old man.

"Disciple Lu Xiao pays homage to Master!"

After this prostration, the old man drank the second cup of tea in his hand.

"Okay, I've already drunk the apprenticeship tea. From now on, as long as you study hard, the old man will definitely teach you everything."

The old man had a smile on his face.

He is very satisfied with Lu Xiao, his apprentice.

In fact, the old man really planned to recruit only one apprentice before.

But today Lu Xiao's performance caught his eye, so he temporarily changed his mind.

He has seen countless people in his life, and even if it is only the first time he meets, he can clearly distinguish the good from the bad.

This is experience.
