The relationship between Man Bao and Ji Shi Tang can be traced back to six or seven years ago, but she really started to understand Ji Shi Tang after she went to Yizhou City.
The owner of Jishitang, whose surname is Zheng, has been an imperial doctor. I heard from shopkeeper Old Zheng that a direct descendant of his family entered the imperial hospital the year before last.
Because the owner's surname is Zheng, the shopkeepers in charge of Jishitang in various places are basically from the Zheng family, but Mr. Zheng, the shopkeeper, belongs to a very remote branch.
But he is very capable, so he can be in charge of Jishi Hall in Yizhou City, and even the entire Jiannan Road belongs to his faction.
But no matter how powerful he is, he can't compare with Jishitang in the capital.
Before coming, Dr. Ji wrote to her, telling her that Zheng Yue from the capital was the second wife of the Zheng family, and they were both direct descendants of the Zheng family. Because Zheng Rui who entered the Imperial Hospital was Zheng Yue's biological brother, Zheng Yue now had control over it.
Great right to speak.
Ji Shitang here in the capital basically listened to him, so she asked him to come over and continue to exchange medical skills with Zheng Yue.
Man Bao followed the waiter into the backyard and saw a man sitting on a stone bench in the yard. There were a dozen kinds of medicinal materials on the stone table in front of him, and he was holding one and smelling it.
"The big shopkeeper."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da raised his head when he heard the voice and saw Man Bao coming in behind the waiter, "This is..."
"Big shopkeeper, this is Mrs. Zhou from Yizhou."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da then smiled, stood up and saluted and said, "So this is Mrs. Zhou. She is indeed as young and promising as Lao Ji said."
Man Bao hurriedly returned the gift, "Doctor Ji praised me too much. I've met shopkeeper Zheng Da."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da hurriedly asked Man Bao to sit down, and then saw Da Ji following her, "This is..."
Daji bowed slightly and said, "Miss, I'm waiting for you outside."
Man Bao nodded, "You go ahead."
Daji then bowed and retreated.
Shopkeeper Zheng Da's eyes flashed slightly, he took Man Bao's letter and glanced at it before pressing it under his hand. He smiled and said: "I received a letter from Yizhou a few days ago. I thought Mrs. Zhou would also receive it these days.
It’s time.”
He smiled and said: "I know that Mrs. Zhou and Lao Ji have been friends for many years and have been exchanging medical skills. The prescriptions and acupuncture methods you gave us are also of great help to our Jishi Hall. I heard Lao Ji say in his letter that you are now
Are you able to prescribe and treat diseases independently?"
Man Bao nodded and said modestly: "It's all thanks to Dr. Ji's good teaching."
"That's because Miss Zhou has a high level of understanding. My son, like me, has only scratched the surface of what he has learned." Shopkeeper Zheng Da smiled and said, "In this way, since Miss Zhou is able to prescribe prescriptions independently, I will give it to you alone here in Jishi Hall."
How about you open a clinic? As for the price of sitting in the clinic, how about 50 taels of silver per month?"
Man Bao opened his mouth wide, pointed at himself and asked, "Do I still have money to sit in court?"
Shopkeeper Zheng Da smiled and said: "That's natural. If you sit in our hospital and see a doctor, of course you will get money."
Man Bao said embarrassedly: "But I'm here to study, and I only come here for half a day every day. I still have to go home to study."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da said nonchalantly: "It's nothing. The drug store usually has more patients in the morning, but there are much fewer patients in the afternoon. You just sit in the hall for half a day every day. As for studying, which doctor doesn't study while seeing patients? Our Jishi
Counting me, there are four doctors in total. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask us, and we will communicate with you more, just like you did in Yizhou City."
Man Bao hesitated.
She didn't charge money when she was in Yizhou City. The main reason was that Dr. Ji said that she could treat ordinary diseases without any problem, but for some serious diseases or difficult diseases, she still needed to exercise, so although she could prescribe
Doctor Ji always checks it again to make sure that the prescription she prescribes is fine.
She felt that it was already unreasonable for her not to pay, and it would be too much to take any more money.
Just when she was hesitating, shopkeeper Zheng Da went back to the house and took out a contract and handed it to Man Bao. He smiled and said: "This is the treatment of our sitting doctor. Take a look. In addition to the five taels of silver per month, every quarter
There will also be two sets of clothes, shoes and socks, so it will be cheaper for relatives to come here for medical treatment and medicine..."
Man Bao glanced at the dense clauses and became even more embarrassed. She put the contract on the table and said guiltily: "Shopkeeper Zheng, I appreciate your kindness, but Doctor Ji said that only I can carry it by myself."
Once you carry the medicine box and go out to see a doctor, you will be considered a teacher. I still need to learn a lot now. I am very grateful that Jishitang allows me to study here. How dare I take such a large salary again? "
Man Bao pushed the contract back and said: "There is no need to pay for sitting in court. All you need to do is open a clinic for me. After I write a prescription, I have to ask shopkeeper Zheng and the doctors to help me check it out."
"Oh, you kid is too polite. The doctors in our shop have been getting paid since they were able to sit in the clinic and prescribe prescriptions. Why should I treat you so poorly in this regard?"
Shopkeeper Zheng Da kept asking for it, but Man Bao kept refusing.
It's just that shopkeeper Zheng Da is thicker-skinned. After all, Manbao is young and too thin-skinned. She turned red after giving in a few times. But she remembers what her mother said. When doing things, she would rather suffer some losses first than think about it.
Take advantage of others, otherwise in the end you will either feel uncomfortable or you will be taken advantage of more.
She felt that if she really accepted the contract today, she would definitely not be able to pass the test in her heart. How would she be able to see Dr. Ji when she returns to Yizhou City in the future?
Although she was very excited, it was clear that five taels of silver was not worth more than Doctor Ji. In order not to be embarrassed when she went back to see Doctor Ji in the future, she decided not to accept it.
So she felt cruel, stood up directly, picked up her small backpack and said: "Shopkeeper Zheng, if you continue to do this, I will be embarrassed to place orders at Jishitang again. I will go and look elsewhere."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da:......
He quickly stopped Man Bao, lowered his head and looked at her expression carefully, sighed and nodded: "Okay, if you don't want it, just don't, then I will open a clinic for you."
Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Shopkeeper Zheng Da again and again, with a bright smile on his face, "Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Zheng Da. Please give me your advice in the future."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da twitched his lips and said, "Hey, let's ask each other for advice and make progress."
After the matter was settled, shopkeeper Zheng Da led Man Bao to the front to meet other people in the pharmacy.
The location of Jishitang is very large. The lobby is divided into three parts. In the middle is a medicine counter and a large medicine cabinet where medicines are arranged.
There are three rooms facing the counter, taking up most of the medicine shop, and there is another room behind the medicine cabinet, which is where shopkeeper Zheng Da sees doctors. Usually the people who go there to see doctors are regulars of Jishi Hall.
It won't cost much, and I don't want to be crowded with the patients here.
What Manbao didn't know was that the second floor was also a place for medical treatment, with small private rooms set up one by one. Those who could usually go up to the second floor were either rich or expensive.
Therefore, it is not too crowded to add Manbao's seat in Jishitang, because shopkeeper Zheng Da directly transferred the best doctor Gu in the shop to his seat, and Manbao can directly use Doctor Gu's room when he comes tomorrow.
