Chapter 285
In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

The plague in Xijiaofang was basically resolved. The Jingshitang family alone cured more than a thousand people. Later, the patients under the jurisdiction of Quanmingtang and Xuanxintang were all dominated by the Chen family.

This is great news for the imperial court, Huimin Pharmacy, patients, and even the common people in Bianliang City.

But this good news is based on the premise that the eight major medical centers have contributed money, medicine and effort, and each of them has suffered heavy losses.

Especially Jingshitang, their medical clinic was responsible for treating half of the plague patients, and they didn't get a copper coin from the imperial court to support them, which made Chen Jinbai very angry.

No, early in the morning, he was on the shoulders with Lu Enyu from Huimin Pharmacy.

"Lord Lu, I've told you many times that our Chen family has encountered a catastrophe this year, and even our home has been confiscated. Now we can't sustain it anymore. Look, our family alone has saved more than 1000 patients. But the money is all paid by our family, it shouldn’t be.”

Chen Jinbai was really in a hurry, unlike other medical clinics, the old foundation was there, after more than half a year of tossing about the Chen family, the house was already empty.

For more than half a month, I have been fighting the plague in Xijiaofang. The business of the medical clinic at home has been put down. There is no income here, and there are still a large family and employees to support. No one can afford it.

"Doctor Chen, Patriarch Chen, I also understand the difficulties of your Jingshitang. Don't worry, I will definitely apply to Taichang Temple and Zhengshitang."

"Don't worry, don't worry, how many times have you said don't worry, look, it's been more than half a month, where is the money? Where are the medicinal materials? If you continue like this, we can only do nothing to help. Now my family has lost a tael of silver." I can't get it out."

Lu Enyu sternly sneered after hearing this:
"It's beyond your control. There are still so many patients lying around waiting for treatment. If you, Jing Shitang, dare to quit, what will happen to the conscience of your hospital? What about the promised pot to help the world? You think about money all the time, Jing Shitang Did you lose your money?"

Chen Jinbai was really happy:

"Lord Lu, you must act according to your conscience. Is it the responsibility of our hospital to provide disaster relief and fight the epidemic? This is the business of your Huimin Pharmacy, okay? Now you are dumping it on us, and you are still making sarcastic remarks, Lu My lord, I want to ask, where is your conscience?"

The quarrel between Chen Jinbai and Lu Enyu immediately spread in Huimin Pharmacy, and people from all major medical centers came out to stand aside and watch the commotion.

In fact, all the people in the medical center are suffocating. This disaster relief is obviously not their responsibility, but now they have become the main force instead?

Pan Wenlong also stood up:

"Lord Lu, we agreed to help, but our eight medical clinics were busy, and your Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau became an outsider. I don't understand. Since you don't give money, it's better to take out the medicinal materials." ah.

Now you don't give money, and you don't use medicinal materials, what's the matter?Are you going to kill our eight medical clinics?Our money did not come from strong winds. If your Huimin Pharmacy continues like this, we will have to go outside Xuande Gate to file a lawsuit against the imperial court. "

Du Xiangchen from Xuanxingtang also came over, pointing to the drug storage warehouses in the backyard and said:

"Master Lu, according to the rules, the Huimin Pharmacy has at least a week's supply of medicines for [-] people, but since we entered to save people, the Huimin Pharmacy hasn't even brought out one or two ingredients. Where did the medicine go?"

The more each family talked, the more excited they were, and the rhythm of tearing skin was a bit frightening, which shocked Lu Enyu a lot.

It's a guilty conscience, there is a fart of medicinal materials in the medicine storehouse, and they have already turned into silver and entered their pockets.

But Lu Enyu knew that he had to be ruthless in order to calm down this group of people. To scare people and get on the line, this is the basic operation of officials:
"Master Su from Taitang Temple said that disaster relief and fighting the epidemic is everyone's responsibility, and it is definitely not a matter for the imperial court. If you do well, Lord Su will naturally ask the imperial court for your credit.

If you don’t want to save people, you will cut yourself off from the imperial court and the people of the world. Master Su said that there is no need to open a medical center in Bianliang in the future, and you can go back wherever you come from. "

As soon as these words came out, it really frightened everyone a little bit.

Taitang Temple is also the responsibility of the Ministry of Health of later generations. Although it is not necessary to apply for a business license to open a medical clinic these days, in the imperial society, the government is omnipotent, and Taichang Temple is also qualified to seal down your medical clinic.

It is also the so-called "not enough success, more than failure."

Although the Eight Medical Clinics are well-known in the medical field, they still belong to the "people", not the scholar-bureaucrat class. If they give you face, you have status. If they don't give you face, you are a middle class.

So Lu Enyu was not afraid of them.

No matter how many private hospitals you have, you can beat the Ministry of Health?Unless you don't want to hang out in the capital.

Back in the house, Chen Jinbai was so angry that he dropped several cups in one breath, feeling a bad breath in his heart.

Chen Buer was also upset. He took out so many medicines for future generations, but he didn't get a penny. Instead, he was threatened. Is there such a moral kidnapping in the world?

"Father, I have a solution."

"Let the fart go."

"Since Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau doesn't pay, we'll sell it badly." After Chen Buer finished speaking, he looked around and saw that there was no one around.

"I have kept all the furniture and belongings in our old house. I plan to set up a stall on Yujie Street to sell the property, so that everyone in Bianliang can see how miserable our Chen family is, and see how Huimin Pharmacy will take care of it. trick."

Chen Jinbai gasped when he heard this: "Is this okay? Then our family will lose face."

"Father, what are you afraid of being ashamed of? Now our family can cure intestinal carbuncle and plague. We are about to make a lot of money and make a lot of money. Let alone the jealousy of the government. If you look at other medical centers, it is also unsightly." We are good, it is good for us to sell and sell badly."

Chen Jinbai couldn't make up his mind, he hesitated.

The Chen family has been an upright person for more than 100 years. When did they sell their family property?Even when the house was ransacked before, the whole family did not complain to the outside world. The old lady gritted her teeth and took out the coffin book.

Chen Buer continued to fool around:
"Last time we cured the official family, they still owed us a favor. This time we have made great contributions in this wave of plague. Maybe things will get worse, and there may be rewards from the court and the palace. .”

Hearing this, Chen Jinbai slapped the table: "Okay, let's do it for the world to see. Bullying people is not the way to bully people."

Early the next morning, Chen Buer left Xijiaofang with four buddies on the pretext of going to buy medicinal materials.

Chai Zijin must be brought, he is now a talisman, and can still play a role at critical moments.
