The Infinite Journey of the Sage

Chapter 075 The foreign medical clinic at the feet of the emperor

At some point in Zhu Forbidden City, a small Western medicine shop appeared at the foot of the Imperial City.

You must know that in a deep-rooted imperial city like Zhu Forbidden City, people have blind confidence in traditional Chinese medicine.

Unless it is a problem caused by intestinal rupture, few people go to Western medicine for headaches and fever.

As for the problem of intestinal rupture, everyone trusts big hospitals more, so there is almost no room for small Western medicine shops to survive in Forbidden City.

Therefore, such a Western medicine shop at the foot of the Imperial City, outside the first ring and the second ring, is really a novel thing.

The gossipy chats between the aunts and ladies after dinner gave this Western medicine shop a lot of popularity.

But very few people actually go.

Most of the houses of ordinary people were passed down from their ancestors. Although some people's houses were "annexed" by dignitaries, most of the others lived in peace and stability and were members of the old imperial city.

They have the pride of the old imperial city. As people under the emperor's feet, they can even see the emperor travel. No matter how expensive the house is, no one will sell it. Unless there is a family breakdown, otherwise the house belongs to them. The old foundation, the old coffin, will never be sold until the family is broken up and people die.

So when they talk about fixed assets, they do have money, but when it comes to income, they are actually middle-class families.

However, given the arrogance of people in the capital, I am afraid they will not sell their old house without going completely bankrupt.

The universal characteristic of this group of people is one word.

poverty.

That's right, living in the capital, the income of a middle-class family can't afford a family of three or four.

If they can still live in the old house from the first to the third generation, what will happen if their descendants get married after the fourth generation? You have to buy a new house, right?

The new house can be in the imperial city, but it cannot be outside the imperial city, otherwise it will be too embarrassing for the two families to get married.

Of course, if you marry an outsider, no one will care about you.

In short, these people live a tight life.

Instead, they pay more attention to the price of medicines, and the poor do not have time to get sick, so they also pay more attention to the efficacy and speed of treatment.

And in this regard, Western medicine is unparalleled.

Even though Chinese medicine can strengthen the body, cure and prevent diseases, Western medicine's target-like treatment characteristics of eliminating diseases are bound to be more popular among the poor and lower middle class than Chinese medicine.

It is precisely because of this that if Chinese medicine does not keep up with the times as soon as possible, it may be inevitable to be eliminated.

The price of this newly built small medical clinic was reasonable, the doctor's judgment was accurate, the medicine was administered quickly, and the medicine cured the disease. It quickly gained a reputation in the local area.

This medical center quickly conquered the mouthy aunts because they discovered that even though it was a medical center run by foreigners, the doctors in this medical center were really awesome!

That doctor is really great in the literal sense. Not only is he great at medical skills, but he is also good-looking and tall, and he is also a great person. He seems to be rich enough to buy a shop here. He is like a sophomore girl. In my mother's mind, she is the perfect son-in-law.

——Yes, the proud people of the Imperial City feel that even if a foreigner wants to marry his daughter, he must bring his wife into his own family.

However, the two parties have different cultures and different friend circles. Even if they change their names or get married, the actual reaction will never be that intense, so this kind of person is the perfect golden turtle son-in-law.

Now that the reputation has improved among the aunties, it almost means that it has improved in the hearts of everyone.

This medical clinic, which had been open for less than a month, had a week of contempt and indifference, a week of small-scale publicity, and a week of large-scale publicity, and its business improved.

Many young ladies and young daughters-in-law took a long detour to see a gynecologist at this male doctor's clinic just to see how handsome the doctor at this clinic really was.

——Of course, this doctor doesn’t know how to do gynecology.

But they know that the doctor cannot see gynecologists but they pretend not to know, and the doctor knows what they pretend not to know but cannot let them know that he knows.

All in all, this is a very complex issue.

However, thanks to the blessings of these little wives, the reputation of the medical clinic has increased again, and it has gained a good reputation at the foot of the imperial city.

This is just a private medical clinic. Even Western medicine does not pose any threat to local doctors.

The local traditional Chinese medicine doctors just laughed at and satirized him at the beginning, and now they are slowly taking him seriously, but when it comes to actually seeing him as an opponent, none of them actually regard him as an opponent.

Except for those young people and old ladies, most people are actually superstitious and blind. Superstitious, blind, stubborn, and difficult to change, so they rarely change their original satisfying lives to try new things.

Unless they are pushed to a certain point, they will not change.

In this way, this small medical clinic began to have its own name and its own status in this city.

Kay's Medical Clinic.

This is not surprising. There are even some ordinary medical clinics that do not appear in newspapers and are spread word of mouth among the people in private.

In addition to treating patients, the owner of the medical center usually enjoys reading newspapers and drinking a cup of tea at the door.

When a effeminate man walked into the medical center with small steps, he was surprised by the environment of the medical center.

The medical center is not big, only about twenty square meters.

Twenty square meters are divided into two sides. The back seems to be a place for medicine, and the front has turned into a bar like a cafe with a square table. There is a small pot of succulents on the square table, and there is a plant next to the square table. It looks elegant and quiet. At first glance, the boss seems to be a very tasteful person.

But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a medical clinic.

There is no stinky or bitter taste of medicinal materials like in a medical clinic. There is just a faint fragrance, as if it were a coffee shop with only one table.

The boss just sat directly behind the table, one person occupying the position of two people, with a computer in his right hand and a cup of coffee in his left hand. He himself was holding a newspaper and reading it with relish.

As if he heard the sound at the door, he put down the newspaper and raised his head to look at the visitor.

The visitor's heart seemed to have been hit, missing half a beat.

What a handsome young man.

The visitor thought in his mind that there are indeed many good people despite his great reputation.

With a blush of shyness on his face, he twisted his waist and came to face the handsome doctor. He said with a smile: "Oh, they say there is a handsome man here in Ximen who has opened a good doctor." Guan, miscellaneous... I still didn't believe it, but when I came over and took a look, I realized that this husband is really handsome."

"Haha, is it inconvenient for my father-in-law to come here?" The silver-haired young man opposite asked with a warm smile.

The face of the rather funny man opposite changed drastically. He obviously had some wrinkles on his face but still didn't have a trace of beard. He opened his mouth with a sharp voice: "How did you recognize Zajia? No, you know him?" Miscellaneous family?"

He is in the palace, and the struggle is fierce. He is here very secretly, and not many people know about it. However, it would not be good if others find out. As a deep palace dweller, it is already difficult to interact with outsiders. It shouldn’t be done. If you are in contact with a foreigner, it really shouldn’t be done.

If someone catches him, it's not a big deal.

If someone really set a trap, how could they have planned to come here to the Zajia family? The eunuch who had experienced so many bloody storms was still trying to think of something, but there was just a chuckle: "Father-in-law is overthinking. It's just that my father-in-law came in with light steps, which was obviously not in line with the weight of a normal man. He has a soft body and a high-pitched voice." It doesn’t lose its masculine characteristics, and my father-in-law’s complexion lacks masculinity, so it’s not surprising that there are one or two father-in-laws coming out to buy it under the imperial city.”

His words made the other party obviously quiet down. The eunuch who had calmed down breathed a long sigh of relief. He held an orchid and pointed at him: "Oh, you scared the Za family to death, but don't call the Za family father-in-law. Father-in-law." But this is a title that can only be used by the godfather of the Za family, so you can just call me Xiao Liu."

"Master Xiao Liu, is there anything wrong with this?" The other party was very kind, but the title of "master" sounded very novel, but there was no trace of disgust in the other party's tone, and there was no trace of disgust or other emotions in his expression. , which made Eunuch Liu feel very comfortable.

This group of physically handicapped people pursue privileges so much. In fact, it is precisely because of the discrimination of the other party that they have bottomed out psychologically.

But now a rare person who treated them as an equal appeared, and the young eunuch Liu immediately felt very comfortable.

The smile on his face couldn't help but become a little brighter.

"It's not the Zajia family who has problems, but the Zajia family still wants to ask whether the children with loss of appetite, appetite, and inactivity have some minor problems. Can these minor problems be cured?"

There was a hint of nervousness in the other party's words, which made the silver-haired doctor ponder.

Although he came here just to try it out, his silence made him very nervous.

"How old is this kid?"

"More than twelve years old." He didn't hide anything, and looked very upright, as if he was worried about the children of his generation.

"Boy or girl?"

"It's a girl."

"Has your first period come yet?"

This time it was Eunuch Liu's turn to hesitate. He gritted his teeth as he looked at the other person's handsome face. He was just a little-known doctor, so what if he told him?

His voice was slightly lowered and his tone was even lower, and he whispered this secret concerning his wealth and life: "I just came here in the past month."

Having said this, the person opposite already knew it.

"Do you have any weight?"

"It's sixty pounds."

"Nonsense, a twelve-year-old girl only weighs sixty pounds. She is already severely malnourished. Master Liu, you didn't abuse her, did you?" The other party had a straight face and scolded her as if scolding a child.

"This is absolutely not the case, this is absolutely not the case!" Like a primary school student being scolded by the dean, Little Eunuch Liu almost jumped up and swore to the sky and the earth.

"She really doesn't want to eat. Even if she takes food supplements, she only takes two or three mouthfuls. A bowl of rice is already a rare snack and her appetite is cut off. How can she supplement her nutrition." He seemed to be excusing himself. Trying hard to distinguish.

"Well..." The other party fell silent again, tapping the table lightly, as if thinking about something.

The more he acted like this, the more Eunuch Liu felt that the other party could cure this problem, so he looked at him earnestly, waiting for him to speak.

"Where's the sweets?"

He asked: "Does she usually like sweets?"

"To prevent tooth decay, sweets should be controlled appropriately."

Little eunuch Liu said softly.

"How reasonable is reasonable?" The other person immediately discovered this question.

"Twice a month." Eunuch Liu almost squeezed it out through his teeth. This was almost a very important secret in the palace, involving the food safety of the core figures of the empire. If the other party really had the power to assassinate her, he would The information spit out is the sword that kills that person.

Even if he died ten thousand times it wouldn't be enough.

"Isn't this nonsense?"

"She doesn't like meat, and you don't even give her sweets, so what do you feed her, feed?" the other party said angrily.

"Be careful what you say, be careful what you say." It was obvious that the other party had a problem speaking, but he comforted the silver-haired doctor as if he was very scared: "There is nothing we can do."

As if remembering the identity of Eunuch Liu, the other party's anger calmed down a little, but he still said with some lingering meaning: "If you guys want to prepare a bowl of brown sugar water for her every month when she gets her period, and drink it after the second day of her period, you can Please come back to me for follow-up consultation in one month."

Although they didn't even bring any patients, and they didn't even see any of them, they still completed a remote consultation.

Eunuch Liu was a little suspicious.

"It's that simple."

"It's not a serious illness. Just try it and get back to me." The other party seemed confident and even started to chase people away.

However, this is what the Chinese people do. The more capable people are, the bigger their tempers are. This is in line with the law. Liu Eunuch immediately stood up with a smile on his face and pinched an orchid finger with a smile: "The Za family knows that you are capable. Let the Za family go back and give it a try." , if it’s useful, I’ll come back and learn from you.”

He also gave me a wink, which immediately gave people goosebumps.

Seeing Eunuch Liu twisting his waist and walking out, the doctor shook his head, picked up the newspaper he had just put down, and continued reading.

The door curtain was opened, and a tall woman walked out from behind. It was none other than Falme, who had changed into the clothes of the Chinese Federation.

Since Falme is here, the identity of the silver-haired doctor is naturally easy to guess.

"Mr. Kay, do you really think you have a chance sitting here?"

The medical center has been open for a month. Although Falme exercises in the small yard behind the medical center every day, she feels like her whole body is rusty and almost moldy when she stays here.

But Keilal was not impatient, and there was no sense of urgency at all, which made people unable to help but feel anxious.

"The opportunity has come and gone." He turned his head, looked at Falme meaningfully and said.
