Chapter 2281: Picking up leftovers from others【2】
There were too many people coming, and for fear of something going wrong, they were not allowed to enter the guardhouse. Instead, they were asked to queue up in a room outside Changliang Weiyili Post to get medicine.
There are several rows of houses, and each house has a fire pit, which is very warm and will not freeze anyone...it just wastes firewood.
Fortunately, the people who came to ask for medicine were sensible and brought a lot of dry firewood, so Chang Liang Wei did not lose too much dry firewood.
Manager Min Da personally sat down and asked those who came to ask for medicine: "Which health center are you from? How many people are sick? How many severe cases are there? Bring the token and we will confirm it before giving medicine."
"We are from Jingou Guard, right next to Dajiwei. This is our guard's token, military flag, the number of sick people, and the letter of sponsorship from Dajiwei." Wei Baihu entered Min After seeing the guests in the room, the chief steward took out all the things and put them on the table. He said with some anxiety: "There are a lot of sick people in our health center. If possible, please ask Yuanzi Pharmacy to give you more medicinal materials. Please ”
Manager Min Da didn't say anything. He took the things and looked at them one by one. Finally, he said: "There are indeed many people who are sick... Let's give you three carts of medicinal materials first. If you don't have enough, you can come over and get the medicine. But you have a little It must be done. If the health center next door to you is in urgent need of life-saving medicinal materials, you must give up a cart to them. Our Yuanzi Medicine Store is ordered by the emperor to release medicine to save the people. If you have the medicinal materials in your hands, you must think of helping the nearby ones. Health center, so that everyone can survive together."
"Of course!" Wei Baihu patted the armor on his body and assured loudly: "Don't worry, Chief Manager, we are all brothers in the guard station on the first line of defense. If the guard station next door needs help, we will naturally not die. No rescue. We can survive until this point thanks to the help of the Great Thorn Guard."
When the heavy snow first fell, Dajiwei got Changliangwei's medicinal materials. Seeing that they were in urgent need, he gave them half a cart, otherwise they were afraid that they would die of illness.
Manager Min nodded and wrote him a list for collecting the medicinal materials. When he handed it to him, he said: "Remember, our Yuanzi Medicine Store is ordered by the emperor to release medicine to save the people. Put your fingerprint on it and go to the side. Let’s get the medicinal materials from the house.”
“Hey, I understand!” Wei Baihu was a very perceptive person when he was sent to ask for medicine. He knew very well that the Yuanzi Medicine Shop must use the emperor’s order to provide such relief.
Do it privately?
Hehe, do you love the people more than your Majesty?
How can you love the people like a son? Think of yourself as an emperor? Can the emperor let you go? !
“Next one!” shouted the soldiers of Changliang Guard.
Soon, the people from Hufuwei came in and put out identification documents one by one for Manager Min to verify his identity.
He even took out three medical certificates and asked Manager Min, "Look, is there any hope?"
After looking at it, Manager Min said: "It's a little serious... Can you go to Du Chonggou to seek medical treatment from a military doctor with superb medical skills?"
Lian Baihu of Hufuwei said: "I went to ask for a military doctor, but he specializes in sword wounds and can't do anything about this kind of severe typhoid fever."
Manager Min sighed, which made even hundreds of households sigh, but what he got was good news: "It's a coincidence, our Yuanzi Medicine Clinic just had a doctor come back this morning, let him go with you Let’s take a look at Hufuwei, but whether he can be rescued depends on his fate.”
"Seriously? Thank you!" Lian Baihu was grateful. One of the three seriously ill patients was his mother.
The old man has experienced a lot and is very open-minded. He told him before he came that if she really went, he should not be too sad. It was all fate... But I didn't expect that there would be a turn for the better. I was really happy.
Lian Baihu knelt down and kowtowed to Manager Min, who was so frightened that Manager Min quickly got up and helped him up: "I'm just a slave of Yuanzi Medicine Store. I can't bear the gift of a military officer."
Lian Baihu: "If you are kind, you should repay it. Sir, you can bear it!"
Manager Min said again: "Your benefactor is the emperor, and Yuanzi Medicine Company is under the emperor's order to release medicine to save the people."
Lian Baihu: "...Yes, we understand. Don't worry, sir." "Go and get the medicine. When Dr. Luo arrives, take him to Hufuwei and he should be able to be saved." Manager Min handed over the certificate of receiving the medicine. The letter asking Dr. Luo to go to Hufuwei for medical treatment was given to Lian Baihu.
Lian Baihu was very grateful and left with red eyes.
Since hundreds of households were rushing back to save lives, he divided his manpower into two. He carried Doctor Luo and three cavalrymen, carrying six bags of medicinal materials, and rushed back to Hufuwei first.
The rest of the people drove back with the medicinal materials.
Dr. Luo was also working hard. He had just returned from Shaliuwei, and after only one sleep, he was carried to Hufuwei for medical treatment. He was so tired that he almost vomited blood.
“Next one!” the soldiers of Changliang Guard continued to shout.
This time the people who came in were not soldiers wearing armor and swords, but a few farmers wearing coarse cotton-padded jackets.
The leader said awkwardly: "I have seen this master... We are not from the guardhouse, but from Jinguigou Village thirty miles away... My name is Jin Tao, and I am the son of the head of Jinguigou Village. This is my home. household registration."
Then he pointed to an old man with a broken leg who was being supported and said: "This is my sixth uncle. He worked as a handyman in the county government. His name is Jin Liuyong. He broke a leg while guarding the county seat during the war. Now he is home to recuperate. However, he can still receive rice grains from the Yamen every month. This is the acceptance document given to him by the Yamen, as well as the voucher for receiving rice grains... We are not here to cheat the medicinal materials, but the village is really in a hurry for medicinal materials to save lives. Please help me. Come on, give us some typhoid medicine to save our lives!"
In an extreme cold, not only the people in various health centers are sick, but also poor families, who are more short of medicinal materials than the people in the health centers.
Manager Min Da had already expected that villagers would come to ask for medicine, so he was not stingy. After reading their household registrations, verifying their identities, and asking how many people in the village were sick, he gave them the medicine.
However, Manager Min Da said: "Yuanzi Medicine Store does not have much medicinal materials here, so they must be distributed reasonably. Although half of the people in your village are sick, there are only dozens of patients, which is not as good as the Thousand People Health Center, so we only have I can give you half a truckload of medicinal materials for emergencies."
“That’s enough, that’s enough. Thank you sir, you saved our whole village!” Jin Tao was so grateful that he knelt down with the villagers who came to ask for medicine.
Manager Min told them again that the one who saved them was not Yuanzi Medicine Store, but Emperor Jingyuan.
Jin Liuyong worked as a handyman in the Yamen and knew a lot. He said: "Don't worry, Chief Manager. After we leave, we will tell people that it was the Emperor who sent Yuanzi Pharmacy to deliver the medicine and saved our lives."
Manager Min nodded and asked them to get the medicine.
But this delivery of medicine is too slow, and there are cases where people deliberately lie about their condition in order to get medicine. Therefore, Manager Min asked shopkeeper Cheng and Ashan to lead two medicine-delivery convoys, with Chang Liang Wei as the center. Walk to the left and right of the first line of defense to distribute medicine and diagnose diseases to various health centers.
He himself was in charge of Chang Liang Wei and continued to give medicine to people who came to ask for medicine.
After four days of such busy work, Changliang Wei’s medicinal materials were at the bottom. Fortunately, the health clinics that were short of medicines got some life-saving medicines, and no more health clinics came to cry for medicines because of lack of medicines.
Because of the timely administration of medicine, 90% of the patients at the first line of defense station were rescued. Only more than 40 people could not survive due to high fever and weakness and died of the disease.
There were many guard posts on the first line of defense. Each guard post contained hundreds of people. Only more than forty people died in total. We were lucky.
