Chapter 57 Opening a Medical Center, Water Problems
"Although my father and the fourth brother are not good at medical skills, I have learned medical science since I was a child and my skills are good. It is not a problem to go to the mountains to collect herbs, and I can also hunt. In this way, we have taken root in Chixia Town. I believe that natural disasters are only temporary. After the natural disasters, the town will surely flourish again. By then, there will be more people and our reputation will be exalted. More importantly, not many people know our past."
"Okay! OK! Well said! You girl is amazing!" Lei Zi praised repeatedly, and did not hesitate to appreciate and praise Yun Yue. He patted Yun Chutian's shoulder and said with a long and serious attitude: "You have this girl in your family, and wealth is just around the corner. I won't say much about the others. In the future, if you want to do whatever girl Yue wants, please let her do it boldly. I'm optimistic about you!"
Yun Chutian smiled silly, nodding, nor shook his head. However, Liu Mingrou heard some tricks and said softly: "Yue Yat-sama is very smart and smart, so she is really good at being in charge. Even though she is still young, she still needs to be tempered."
Lei Zi nodded, but he didn't agree. Yun Yue's performance has been several streets ahead of others these days. Even Gu Chen couldn't do the Yun Yue's position when he was seven years old. In his opinion, Yun Yue was already impeccable.
The group made a charter. Yun Chutian and Lei Zi went to sign a contract with Fang Zhongren the next day. Fang Zhongren was also a person with temperament. Knowing that Yun Chutian and the others were anxious to implement the matter, they took the two to the county town that day, and Yun Yue and the others took advantage of their absence to clean up the house.
The street where this house is located is only a row of shops separated from the main street. The house is just at the intersection of the three-way road. In front is a small shop, divided into two floors. The upper floor is covered with wooden boards, and the back comes into the yard. There are twelve circled rooms, a stove, and all of them are brick and tile houses. Such a prime location is such a good layout. If it is a good weather, such a house cannot be taken down without forty or fifty taels. The people in the square only charge them 19 taels of silver, which is like half-selling and half-giving, which is as cheap as it is amazing.
The main door of the shop is the front door of the house. If the shop does not open, you can only enter and exit from the small door at the back. Since the clinic has not opened yet, everyone tacitly entered and exited through the small door in the backyard.
It is inevitable to use water to clean the house. All the water sources in the town have dried up. Only ten miles outside the town has a deep well and water. It costs two cents to carry a bucket. Liu Mingrou's face changed when she learned about this. She didn't know what to do for a moment. They spent all the money in their hands. Now there is no surplus of money to buy water, let alone buy water and come back to wash.
Yun Yue didn't want to expose the fifty taels given by Tang, so she had to speak with Gu Chen, "Brother Chen, do you have any money on you? Can you lend me a little for the time being? I will pay it back in the future."
Gu Chen looked at Yun Yue with a funny look, "Even if you don't say it, I will give it to you. There are ten taels of silver here. You can save it to alleviate the urgent needs first, and you will pay it back when you have the money. I will borrow a wooden barrel with Dazhuang and I will go out of the town to get water. You can go back to the inn to rest first."
Liu Mingrou could not make Gu Chen so busy. She immediately shook her head and shouted to Yun Kangze: "Boss, thirds, fourths, and Kang Jing go together. Chenzi has helped us a lot. We can't let you work so hard!"
Gu Chen knew Liu Mingrou's temperament well and knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter, so he had to give in: "Let me do this, let Uncle Dazhuang take Brother Kang Ze and others to come with you. It would be safer to have Uncle Dazhuang here."
Liu Mingrou hesitated for a moment and agreed. It would be impossible not to agree. Yun Kangze is so unreliable. Who knows what you will encounter when you go out? If you are attracted by something, will you not even be able to find your way back.
I borrowed a cart and a wooden barrel from the inn shopkeeper, and there were a lot of wooden barrels in the inn. Dazhuang simply put the cart and filled the wooden barrels until I couldn't put it down.
Yun Yue found that these wooden barrels were deeper than ordinary ones. Each wooden barrel had a special wooden edge, and the lid was covered with tight tile. After asking, he found out that the wooden barrel was specially used by the people in the town to hold water. The wooden barrel was made deeper and the water was not easily spread out during transportation. The wooden edge and the barrel lid were also used to maximize water storage.
Yun Yue had to sigh at the wisdom of the people.
With the cart and these wooden barrels, Yun Kangze and his men would probably get back all the water they needed by just one transportation.
When the water transportation came back, it was dark. Liu Mingrou thought that Yun Chutian would be able to live in a new house tomorrow. She took Yun Zhen and Yun Yue and Yun Ying to clean it all night. As for Yun Kangze and others, they were so tired that they slept so hard that they couldn't move.
Fortunately, the shop in front is not available yet. They only need to clean out the dozen or so wing rooms behind. The beds and tables and chairs inside are ready-made. The main thing is to scrub these things and sweep the dust on the ground so that people can live in it.
The four of them did not get ready until midnight. When Yun Yue stepped out of the back door, she saw Gu Chen leaning against the wall and was shocked and said, "Brother Chen! Why are you here so late?"
Liu Mingrou and Yun Zhen were also surprised.
Gu Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said warmly: "I don't worry about you going back by yourself and come and pick you up."
A plain sentence made Yun Yue feel warm in her heart, as if she was burned by something.
Yun Chutian and Lei Zi returned to the inn the next day after noon. When Liu Mingrou saw Yun Chutian, she immediately asked, "Is things going well?"
Yun Chutian slowed down for a moment and grinned, "I thought I was going to make a lot of trouble, but I never thought it would be even smoother than we thought. As soon as we arrived at the county town, we met a yamen officer. The yamen officer happened to be familiar with Fang Zhongren. When he learned that we had bought a house and settled down, he agreed in a few words.
At first, Uncle Lei and I were suspicious, but the man really took us into the county government without any obstacles and led us to find the documents to apply for household registration. Fang Zhongren talked about our situation. The other party asked only a few questions and handled it for us. It didn’t take a tael of silver, but only half a tael of silver was spent. The house was nineteen taels, and we still had half a tael of silver left now!"
This is the happiest thing about Yun Chutian. He originally thought that he had spent all the money, but he didn't expect that he could still leave him half a tael of silver. This was an unexpected surprise!
