AWB Chapter 335 New Vest
Chapter 335 New Vest
At this moment, Ping An stopped beside Lin Chuyi. Lin Chuyi opened his eyes immediately. Seeing that it was Ping An, Lin Chuyi let down his guard and asked, "Have you found out the news so quickly?"
Ping An nodded. "Well, I went there at a coincidence. I happened to hear the governor of Liuzhou talking about this matter with his men. According to them, after the court received the news, they arranged for 20,000 garrison troops from Dengzhou to come and help deal with this smallpox incident to prevent a public riot. Dengzhou and Liuzhou are only separated by a prefecture. According to the time when the news was received, it will take about a day for the army to reach Liuzhou."
When Lin Chu heard the news, he couldn't help but frowned. "So, we don't have much time left. We have to solve this matter before the army arrives."
"Well, what are you going to do?" Ping An asked.
Lin Chuyi smiled slightly, "I plan to give us a new vest."
"Ah?" Ping An looked puzzled.
Lin Chuyi didn't explain any further. After checking the surrounding environment and confirming it was safe, he took Ping An into the space to change clothes.
Two quarters of an hour later, two uninvited guests suddenly appeared in the study of the Liuzhou prefect, startling the prefect who was handling government affairs. The prefect wanted to call for people to come in, but found that he could not make any sound at all. This discovery made him both shocked and frightened.
Lin Chuyi, dressed as an old man, put his hands behind his back, showed a kind smile to the governor, and said slowly in an old man's voice: "Don't panic, governor. I am not here to cause trouble. I am here to help you solve the problem."
As soon as Lin Chuyi finished speaking, he stretched out a hand and waved to Ping An, who was standing behind him on the left and dressed as an ordinary medicine boy.
Ping'an immediately understood what he meant, opened the medicine box he carried with him, took out the prescription that Lin Chuyi had written in advance and the prepared pills and ointment samples, walked forward a few steps, and placed them on the table in front of the prefect.
The prefect Meng Heshan had been closely watching Ping'an's movements, fearing that he would suddenly do something disadvantageous to him. As a result, he found that he was worrying too much. He put down the things and returned to his original position.
He looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of him for a while, and confirmed that they did not make any other movements, then he shifted his gaze to the pile of things on the table.
Although he didn't know medicine, he could tell from the names of medicinal herbs and the dosages listed on the papers that these papers were actually prescriptions. The bottles on the papers were medicine bottles, and they should contain pills or something like that.
What he didn't understand was what these two inexplicable people were trying to do by breaking into his study with such a bunch of things of unknown origin.
Although Meng Heshan couldn't speak, his furrowed brows and confused eyes had already revealed his inner thoughts.
At this time, Lin Chuyi spoke again: "The blue bottle contains special pills for curing smallpox. People who are infected with smallpox can take one pill every day. Patients with mild smallpox can recover after taking it for three consecutive days. Patients with severe smallpox need to take it for five to seven consecutive days to recover."
"The white bottle contains pills for preventing smallpox. Each person only needs to take one pill. The white jar contains a plaster for removing acne scars. This jar is a special medicine I developed. Applying it for half a month can completely remove acne scars caused by smallpox."
"The ointment made according to the recipe will take longer to take effect, and it will take about two months. However, the cost of making the ointment on the recipe is one-tenth of the special medicine, and it is more suitable for ordinary people who don't have much spare money. The other two prescriptions describe the production methods of the two bottles of pills. If the medicine is made according to the recipe and used on the people in Ning'an County and the villages under its jurisdiction, the smallpox problem can be solved."
After Lin Chuyi explained the functions and uses of the things on the table, he stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Hearing the sound of snapping fingers, Meng Heshan felt that the invisible restraint had disappeared. He tried to speak and he could make sounds again. The fear in his heart outweighed the joy. Who on earth was the other party who had such unpredictable abilities?
However, Meng Heshan was soon relieved. The other party could stand in front of him openly and do something to him silently, making it impossible for him to ask for help. If the other party really wanted to kill him, there would be no need to go through so much trouble.
What's more, the other party also took out something that could treat smallpox. Although it was not clear whether these things were really effective, it at least proved that the other party had no ill will towards him.
Moreover, the other party had regained his ability to speak, and obviously wanted to communicate with him. Why didn't he take this opportunity to ask all the questions in his mind clearly at once?
After figuring it out, Meng Heshan cleared his throat and asked, "Who are you? Can these prescriptions really cure smallpox? What is your purpose in doing this?"
Lin Chuyi answered them one by one with good temper: "My last name is Chen Er, I know a little bit about medicine. When I passed by your precious place with my apprentice, I accidentally learned that smallpox was raging in Ning'an County. I couldn't bear to see the people lose their lives because of it, so I prepared a prescription and medicine and took the liberty to come to the government office to bother you."
"The stuff is here. You can ask the doctor in Liuzhou to take a look. You don't have any other way to treat smallpox anyway, so why not give it a try? Even if it doesn't work, it won't be a big loss for you. But if it does, it will be a great achievement. What do you think?"
Who doesn't want credit? But Meng Heshan doesn't believe that there is such a thing as pie in the sky, nor does he believe that someone can really do good things without expecting anything in return. So no matter how wonderful the other party's words are, he will not choose to believe them before they reveal their ultimate purpose.
The old man said a lot of things before the meeting, but still did not reveal the purpose of his doing this. Meng Heshan reorganized his words and began to analyze the interests involved. He appealed to her emotions and reason, and induced Lin Chuyi to tell her real purpose.
"I am the father and mother of the people of Liuzhou. Naturally, I hope that the people under my rule can live and work in peace and contentment and live a healthy life. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are beyond human control. Smallpox has existed since ancient times. Thousands of years have passed, and no doctor has ever found an effective treatment for smallpox. How can you be sure that your pills can cure the disease?"
"Sir, you came to the government office to see me a few days ago. I know that you have a way to cure smallpox. Regardless of whether it is true or false, and whether there is any credit to be gained, I will try my best. After all, this matter concerns tens of millions of lives. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up easily. This is my responsibility and obligation as the governor of Liuzhou."
