Chapter 50: The nemesis of typhoid fever, medical sage Zhang Changsha
"Brother Yi, are you scared?"
Seeing that Yi Xiaotian was silent, Cao Cao said jokingly. "Brother Yi, I will be in the wine shop tonight. If anything happens to you, I can rush to your rescue as soon as possible! Haha..."
"Don't, don't, don't...you are too worried about hiding this from me." Yi Xiaotian waved his hand, looking like he ignored the answer. "When it comes to women's issues, I still like to do it myself, and I can't do it for others!"
Hahaha…
Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed again.
After talking about the woman, Cao Cao walked to the case with great interest and carefully scanned the bamboo slips titled "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" written by Yi Xiaotian, and suddenly thought of something.
I forgot...
Recently, Cao Cao has been so focused on attacking Puyang City that he almost forgot that he still owes Brother Yi a medical office.
Now that Lu Bu has fled in panic and the situation in Yanzhou is stable, it is time to send people to build a medical office next to Youjian Liquor to fulfill Brother Yi's wish!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao turned around and spoke in a meticulous tone.
"Since Brother Yi is obsessed with medical skills, the construction of the medical office cannot be delayed..." Cao Cao said with a smile. "I will find the best craftsmen tomorrow and start construction next to the wine shop."
At this point, Cao Cao paused and then added, "There are also doctors in the medical department. I will definitely recruit some of them who are world-famous, so that Brother Yi can discuss with them, and I will definitely master this medical skill."
Something great!"
Yi Xiaotian likes medical skills, how novel they are, but Cao Cao likes them very much.
As long as it doesn't conflict with his fight for the world, he will happily accept it, and is very happy to help Yi Xiaotian work harder and add fuel to the fire. This is called the icing on the cake.
Unexpectedly, when he heard about the world-famous doctor, Yi Xiaotian shook his head.
"Brother Bao, I am very grateful to Brother Bao for building the medical office, but the doctors in it..."
Yi Xiaotian's tone suddenly hesitated...
Well, Cao Cao was a little surprised. Could it be that these world-famous doctors couldn't fall into Yi Xiaotian's eyes?
"Brother Yi, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter!"
"Brother, is the doctor I want famous all over the world? It doesn't matter, but he must know how to cure typhoid fever!" Yi Xiaotian said in a determined tone, as if he had planned it early in the morning.
Ho? Typhoid fever…
Hearing these three words, Cao Cao's heart trembled.
In these troubled times, who doesn’t know what the word typhoid fever means? It means death from hunger everywhere, empty houses, and ruin of everything...
During the reign of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, there were five major epidemics in total. Thousands of people were devoured by the disease. In less than ten years, two-thirds of the people died from the epidemic, and seventy-eight out of ten died of typhoid fever.
Cao Cao also served as a local official when he was young. He was well aware of the sufferings of the people. He also knew how miserable the people were living under the raging typhoid fever. Not to mention the common people, there were soldiers who died of typhoid fever every day in the military camp alone.
This made Cao Cao extremely heartbroken and seemed to have become a lingering disease in his heart.
But... when Yi Xiaotian opened his mouth, he wanted to find a doctor who knew how to cure typhoid fever? This... this...
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment!
Is Brother Yi speaking too loudly? Or does Brother Yi already have a suitable candidate?
Seeing Cao Cao in a daze...
Yi Xiaotian continued. "Brother, there is indeed a doctor in this world who is trying to cure typhoid fever. Although his location is a bit far away from Chenliu County, and he is an official of the imperial court, but... if we can invite him, I am afraid that this will happen."
The scourge of typhoid fever in Chenliu County will be completely eradicated."
"Who? Who is this person?"
Cao Cao hurriedly took two steps towards Yi Xiaotian, looking quite anxious.
Yi Xiaotian was talking about the radical cure of typhoid fever in Chenliu County, but Cao Cao was thinking about the entire three armies, the entire Yanzhou, and even the entire world in the future.
If this incurable disease can be completely cured on his territory, then... the population, productivity, and supply of reserve soldiers in his territory will be a steady stream of numbers...
It can be said that as long as this problem is solved, Cao Cao will feel more confident to conquer the world.
At this moment, Cao Cao's ears almost stood up. He was extremely looking forward to the name that Yi Xiaotian was about to read out.
"This person's surname is Zhang, Zhang Changsha!"
Finally, Yi Xiaotian called out this person’s surname, official title…
In ancient times, people were generally not called by their first names. For example, when they called Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian, people often called him Tao Xuzhou. The Zhang Changsha Yi Xiaotian mentioned was Zhang Zhongjing, the governor of Changsha at the time.
"Zhang Changsha?" Cao Cao's eyes flashed, and the name passed through his mind for a while...
Oh, it turned out to be him.
Cao Cao was no stranger to Zhang Zhongjing. In this era, Zhang Zhongjing's reputation in the south was greater than that of Cao Cao.
As for the reason...
Zhang Zhongjing, the prefect of Changsha, had a completely different style from the ordinary government officials. He even moved the clinic to the lobby of Changsha and held public consultations. This was the first time in history that clinics were opened for consultation.
His move caused an uproar in this era, and spread his reputation throughout all of Jiuzhou. Even Runan's "Yuedan Commentary" commented on Zhang Zhongjing many times and even called him the "Medical Saint"!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao frowned and seemed to ask knowingly. "Brother Yi? The Zhang Changsha you mentioned? Is it Zhang Zhongjing, the medical sage rated by the governor of Changsha County on Yuedan?"
"Exactly!" Yi Xiaotian replied without thinking.
call out…
Cao Cao took a deep breath and shook his head immediately. "This is difficult to handle. I heard that Zhang Zhongjing opened a clinic in Changsha County and cured poor people for free. In the face of powerful bullies, he refused to treat people with a fortune. This person has a weird personality. If he is
If I ask him to resign and come to the medical office here, I'm afraid...I'm afraid..."
At the end of the story, Cao Cao's tone became more hesitant and seemed a little embarrassed.
Cao Cao is not afraid of those who seek medical advice from those who possess unique skills and raise prices, but is afraid of those who are stubborn, upright and honest, and regard money as dirt.
Not to mention persuading Zhang Zhongjing to resign, even visiting Zhang Changsha to ask for treatment would not be easy.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's expression was very ugly...
"Hahaha…"
Unexpectedly, facing Cao Cao's bitter face, Yi Xiaotian laughed out loud. "It's not difficult to invite Zhang Changsha over, it's not difficult..."
Halfway through his words, he immediately walked to the case with a smile, gently picked up one of the six bamboo slips, and then said.
"We only have one volume of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases" before this medical sage comes to our restaurant!"
When Yi Xiaotian spoke, his eyes were shining, and he seemed to be confident early on. This surprised Cao Cao?
Is it possible that Brother Yi can even fully predict the movements of Zhang Zhongjing, the famous medical sage in Kyushu?
this…
Before Cao Cao could think about it, Yi Xiaotian had already stuffed the first volume of "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" into his arms.
He did not forget to tell him, "If you have any trouble, brother, send your confidants to Changsha County quickly and present this bamboo slip to Zhang Changsha. As soon as this bamboo slip arrives, Zhang Changsha will definitely come to our wine shop without stopping!"
Huo...what a loud tone!
Cao Cao was startled, then raised his eyebrows. "Brother Yi? Are you serious? Will Zhang Changsha come? He... he can also cure typhoid fever?"
"Absolutely true!"
Yi Xiaotian narrowed his eyes, smiled slightly, and did not explain too much!
call…
Cao Cao exhaled. After all, Zhuyu is in front of him. Yi Xiaotian's words have never been wrong before. This time... although it is difficult, it seems that there will be no accidents, right?
Thinking of this, Cao Cao nodded in agreement...
Of course, Cao Cao would not know.
This "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" was originally written by the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing, but it would be more than twenty years before this book came out.
To know…
Zhang Zhongjing has witnessed the tragedy of epidemics since he was a child, with people being devastated and corpses strewn everywhere. His dream since he was a child is to completely cure typhoid fever and free people all over the world from the torture of the epidemic...
And this dream can be easily realized through the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" which was published in advance...
Yi Xiaotian studies history and will dig deep into every celebrity in history. For example, Zhang Zhongjing, his character, his dreams, and his mission, Yi Xiaotian has long been familiar with.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, persuading Zhang Zhongjing to abandon his official position and go to Chenliu is a difficult task, but with Yi Xiaotian, it is a piece of cake!
