Chapter 423 Buying a Book(2/2)
Jiao Xin was suddenly panicked. He wanted to shake his official power, but there was no helper around him. Seeing that there were more and more people around him, he said: "I have tried my best to treat it, but... this disease will be contagious. If it is not banned, there will only be more and more people who are infected. At that time, then..."
"Dog official, quack doctor!"
The man was already furious and could not listen to his explanation. He raised his pickaxe and wanted to beat him.
Jiao Xin fled in a hurry, and didn't know how many streets he ran to a dead end, so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
Suddenly, I saw a broken basket thrown in the corner of the wall, full of rotten vegetables and leaves. I hurriedly squatted and held the basket on my head, and then I escaped the disaster.
After waiting for a long time, I confirmed that there was no movement around me, so I pushed the basket away and picked the rotten vegetable leaves on my head. I felt a rotten smell coming to my nose, which was disgusting.
Jiao Xin shook the rotten vegetables and leaves on his body, kept sighing and walked towards the inspection office.
On the way, I accidentally saw another pharmacy.
He didn't plan to find a book, but found that the door of the shop was open.
Now all the shopkeepers, guys, and doctors in the shop have been summoned, why is this shop still open?
After looking around, he patted the soil on his clothes and walked in.
What's strange is that although the shop is open, there is no one inside.
"Is anyone here?"
Jiao Xin asked, but no one agreed.
I think it was when the shop’s shop’s shop went out and forgot to lock the door.
Just as he was about to leave, someone agreed.
"Who?"
The curtain was lifted and a woman walked out.
Jiao Xin was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, Dongxiang is really special, there is actually a girl?
"Ben... I am also a doctor. Now I need a medical book. If you have it in this shop, I will pay for it!"
As he spoke, he took out a small inlay of silver from his body and handed it over.
"Oh, I can't do it..."
The woman did not answer, but said, "We are the head of the family, and I don't understand those..."
Only then did Jiao Xin figure it out that this woman was not a girl, but the wife of the shopkeeper of this medicine shop.
"I need this book very much now. If it is convenient for you, can you take me to see it?"
The woman looked embarrassed and said, "I can't do such a thing..."
Jiao Xinxin thought and said, "To be honest, I came from Weinan and made a special trip to assist the local inspection department in treating malaria. I left in a hurry and forgot to bring a book. You see this..."
"Sir, are you here to help with malaria?"
“That’s right!”
Jiao Xin's face was not changed and his heart was not beating. He was here to treat malaria and he did not lie.
The woman immediately changed to a smile and said, "Come in!"
"Have you been working!"
Jiao Xin followed the woman to the back hall, which was the place where the shopkeeper of the medicine shop collected books. Sure enough, there were many medical books.
"Sir, please read it yourself. I can't help."
"Thank you!"
Jiao Xin bowed and then searched on the bookcase.
The woman said from the side, "I heard that the new high-ranking official has very good medical skills."
"Yeah?"
Jiao Xin flipped the book and agreed casually.
"No, let me tell you, that the official was not good before. The more he treated the disease, the more serious it became. Many people died."
Jiao Xin couldn't help but want to refute, but he finally held it back.
Forget it, don't have the same knowledge as women!
However, he felt angry and said, "It's no wonder that malaria is contagious. When people walk around each other, they will inevitably aggravate their condition."
"But the new high-ranking official has controlled his condition! In just three days, everyone's condition improved."
"That's because..."
Jiao Xin originally wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, he would just forget it.
Those Artemisia annua have just been thrown into the well water. Even if they really work, they are not so fast, right?
If it really improves, it must be that the medicine that King Zhou brought someone to decoct yesterday had the effect.
However, the medicine I decocted back then also worked!
The problem is how to control repeated infections. As long as the people move around, even if the disease is cured, they will still be infected by others. This is the key to solving the problem!
It's useless to tell a woman about this...
"Finished!"
Jiao Xin took a book from the bookcase, which read the words "Saving the Soldier Behind the Elbow" and the signature was Ge Hong.
"I bought this book!"
"No, no!"
The woman refused repeatedly and said, "Sir, come from all over the place to help us treat diseases and save people in Dongxiang. It's just a book, just use it."
Jiao Xin's ears became a little hot as he heard these words.
"Let me do this, I'll leave you some broken silver. If the shopkeeper asks, he will say someone has borrowed it."
The woman lowered her face and said, "If you mention the money again, you will clearly look down on others!"
Seeing this, Jiao Xin felt mixed feelings in his heart, so he had to bow and leave with the book.
Chapter completed!
