Chapter 21 Northbound
"Second brother, what are the plans for the village to be built?" Huang Chengen was very concerned about Zhou Shixiong's subsequent arrangements, because the war between Hengzhou and Xunzhou Prefecture had already begun. With the support of Pingxiangzhou's iron ore, Hengzhou, in addition to the iron swords, was equipped with an iron armored team of 1,000 people, which really destroyed the Cen family's teeth. The Cen family's vanguard army was defeated by the Lei family's 1,000 iron armored team, and more than half of them were killed or injured. The chieftains of Nanning Prefecture who were not optimistic about Hengzhou began to wonder if they should take Hengzhou and share the benefits.
"Old Liu suggested that I take the county exam next year. According to the time, I will go to Hejian Prefecture after the Chinese New Year. During this period, I will study at home and not go anywhere." Zhou Shixiong had been bombarded by Liu Wang for several months and finally accepted his suggestion that if you want to do well in this era, it is necessary to have a fame. Otherwise, even if you make money, you will not be guaranteed and you will be seized by officials and gentry at any time.
"I'll be good at getting a good exam, so I wish my second brother a success." Huang Chengen originally wanted to discuss the expansion of the road with Zhou Shixiong, but when he saw that Zhou Shixiong did not mention this, he could only let go and not say it. He was not as worried that Zhou Shixiong would go to the Central Plains and never come back, and see this extremely exquisite Zhoujiazhuang, who could build such a good home and abandon it as if he was defeated.
"My doctor, you are twenty-two, should you consider getting married? I remember a Han saying that unfilial piety is the greatest, but the three no descendants are the greatest." The wife of the Great Wu Zhu gave birth to three daughters for him. The two of the older ones were already married, and the youngest one was just fifteen, which was just suitable for marriage. The Great Wu Zhu did not dare to make his daughter the right wife of Zhou Shixiong. He knew that according to the rules of the Ming people, it was illegal to marry a barbarian wife.
"Great Witch, I don't have time to think about this. When I finish the county exam, if I get lucky, I will talk about these things. "Zhou Shixiong looked down on the women of the Zhuang family. Mudan and the five older women have already lived with him. It's inconvenient to say more about the inconvenience. As for marrying a wife, he really dare not marry the Huang family. If he wants to run away in the future, he will leave his relatives and still cannot do it.
Zhou Shixiong did not regard his adopted son as a relative. He thought this was a transaction. The Huang family gave his identity and benefited the Huang family. Zhou Shixiong never asked about the profits of the team. He never looked at the account book and did not care how much Huang Chengen gave him. Therefore, he didn't care about the things he took from the Huang family, otherwise he would have made 20,000 wood floors.
"Yes, the young master always needs to arrange the elders in his family for marriage. When I go to Hejian Mansion to see if there are any elders in my hometown, I can make a decision if there are no one." Everyone in the Huang family knows that Zhou Shixiong's identity is fake, but Liu Wang said this reasonably. The Great Wu Zhu no longer continues this topic, and talks about what goods have become popular recently and what cannot be sold well.
Five hundred teenagers were responsible for all the work of Zhou Shixiong's mansion, and five hundred slaves were responsible for taking care of elephants. This was the basic staff of Zhoujiazhuang. Now Zhou Shixiong has no other items except the elephant team. The bamboo and wood furniture made in Zhoujia Village was sold to the Northern Dynasty, and the income belonged to Zhoujia Village. Zhou Shixiong did not take the money.
Now the food and food in Zhoujiazhuang is provided by Baiyun City. In addition to reading, Zhou Shixiong teaches five hundred young people to read, write and practice. Zhou Shixiong once considered teaching modern textbooks, but in addition to mathematics, geometry, there is also a little bit of physics and chemistry that can be recalled, most of which are not clear and inconspicuous. The only thing that is extremely clear and inconspicuous is medicine. It is extremely clear because the chip has a complete set of data records, and it is inconspicuous because Zhou Shixiong himself does not understand medicine.
There is nothing to do. Since the most neat information is medicine, Zhou Shixiong can only teach the children the Four Books and Five Classics while learning medical skills. It is not difficult to say that it is difficult. Endorsement does not have any pressure on Zhou Shixiong, and he does not need to take action to distinguish the disease. The chip used to be able to enter internal investigations through robots. Now the chip can observe patients through Zhou Shixiong's modified eyes.
The chip analyzed the condition and sent the data to Zhou Shixiong. Zhou Shixiong was judging the medication based on the data. Because he only had Chinese medicine in his hands, the soup song was memorable. After he confirmed the prescription, the chip helped him check again. Basically, the prescription prescribed by Zhou Shixiong could be accurate to the unit.
Unfortunately, the five hundred slaves became experimental products again. Zhou Shixiong inputted the robot into the slave's body, and according to the requirements, the slave had some disease, and then treated him with decoction. Although Dr. Zhou's ability is superb, he can use traditional Chinese medicine to treat diseases slowly. Every unlucky guy who is attracted to Zhou Shixiong will have to spend ten days and a half months to get better.
Those slaves were very unlucky, but they were grateful to Zhou Shixiong. Before, they beat people to treat injuries and torture them, but of course these slaves would not think of Zhou Shixiong's goodness, but now they are different. They don't know that their illness was created by Zhou Shixiong for them, and they also think that Zhou Shixiong is willing to use medicine for the slaves to treat diseases. How much kind of favor is this, so Zhou Shixiong's image is not good.
Zhou Shixiong memorized the book himself, and sorted out the medical materials and threw them to the children to recite. When the Great Wu Zhu heard that Zhou Shixiong taught medical skills, he also came to observe and read the medical books written by Zhou Shixiong. Da Wu Zhu wanted to kneel down to worship Zhou Shixiong again. In ancient medical writing, the symptoms described the external appearance, and then a bunch of yin and yang and five elements. The prescription was also hidden and not for people to see, for fear that others would learn the prescription secretly.
Zhou Shixiong wrote different medical books. They not only describe the external characteristics of the disease, but also describe data such as heartbeat and pulse. They introduce the causes of this disease in more detail. The prescription is also clearly written on it. They also explain the situations of adding or deleting. The medical books also specifically write about the preparation of Chinese medicine and the production of Chinese patent medicines. In addition to decoctions, there are also powder pills, etc.
"Mysterious Doctor, it's better not to spread this book. This is a family heirloom." Chinese people like to hide treasures, and this is the same whether it is Han or Man. The great wizard Zhu's views are the same as Liu Wang.
"I want to teach my disciples, how can I teach you hidden things? Medical skills are different from others. If they are not done well, they will kill people. How can I hide them!" Zhou Shixiong is not a selfless person, but this medical book is worthless to him, so he took it out so generously.
"Miscellaneous Doctor, you can get a mountain of gold and silver if you make them. Will you cut off your own way to wealth if you leak it?" The great witch Zhu also saw Zhou Shixiong's love for money and immediately persuaded him from this perspective.
"That's true, but if you don't teach these disciples, do you want me, the master, to do it yourself? So, you still have to teach the land, and at most you don't pass it on to the outside."
"Mysterious Doctor, you servants have not all bought out your body contract. Those who have expired will leave, wouldn't they take away these medical skills? How could they not be called "Wai Zhu"?" After the advice of the great wizard Zhu and Liu Wang, Zhou Shixiong had to officially accept the five hundred young men as disciples. In this way, even if the body contract expires, he will still be his disciple and will be able to control it in the future.
Zhou Er Zhou Si and Zhou Wu and Zhou Shixiong have the longest time. Now the three brothers are taller than Zhou Shixiong, and they can be called heroes with a tiger-backed and bear-backed waist. Zhou Wu is in charge of the elephant team, Zhou Er is a book boy and bodyguard, and Zhou Si follows Liu Wangxue’s housekeeper. After Zhou Shixiong and Liu Wang leave, Zhou Si will work part-time as the owner of the house to manage Zhou Shixiong’s family business.
Zhou Shixiong found a new job for 500 slaves and asked them to follow the monkeys up the mountain to collect herbs. Zhou Shixiong would not let them do idle work and use the money to buy the medicinal materials they picked. The slaves were excited. As former bandits, climbing mountains and wading waters is an old business. Once they leave Zhoujiazhuang, it is much easier to run away. Even if Zhou Hou wants to stare at him, he can't see so many people.
But reality is cruel. When those monkeys in jackets see someone running away, they will scream immediately. Soon, a group of monkeys gathered to attack the escaped slaves. When they were captured by the supervisory team led by Zhou Hou, female doctors such as Mudan can practice trauma treatment again.
In January of the seventh year of Tianqi, the weather in Guangxi was not cold. Zhou Shixiong took Liu Wangzhou to Baiyun City to say goodbye to Huang Chengen. Then he followed the elephant team to leave Pingxiangzhou and headed towards Nanning Prefecture.
In order to allow Zhou Shixiong to ride a horse, Liu Wang risked being arrested and used his identity as a scholar to drive three road guides. Otherwise, the optimized BMWs that Zhou Shixiong and his three riders would definitely be confiscated. Speaking of these horses, Huang Chengen borrowed a few horses from Zhou Shixiong as a stallion to optimize the breed for his horse band. In fact, everyone in the Huang family wanted to know how Zhou Shixiong turned ordinary good horses into this. But no one dared to ask about this. Once they picked up the identity of Zhou Shixiong as the envoy of the beast god, how dare they ask Zhou Shixiong to help do things.
The journey from Guangxi to the capital was long. Even if the three of them rode BMWs, Liu Wang was old and weak after all, so it was impossible for him to hurry all the way. Therefore, Zhou Shixiong and the other two walked for two months before they arrived at the capital Hejian Mansion. When they first left, the three of them were just wearing thin robes. Now the three of them were wearing thick fur coats and walked into the county town of Fucheng County, Hejian Mansion in the heavy snow.
Fucheng is located south of Hejian Prefecture, and the Grand Canal and the road connecting the capital and Shandong converge within the territory. It is the main transportation hub of Hejian Prefecture and its business is very developed. Zhou Shixiong and his party passed through many major cities and towns along the way from Guangxi to the capital. This is the first time he has seen a county town like Fucheng, which is small but extremely prosperous.
The three of them came in from Nancheng. Not far from the South City Gate, there was a large inn. Zhou Shixiong didn't look at the name, so he pulled the horse and turned in. "Three guests, please come in, should you be the best or stay in a hotel?" The waiter came up and greeted him enthusiastically, and a groom came over to lead the three horses away.
"When staying in a hotel, our horses need to be given a high-quality material, so don't fool us." Zhou Er has known how to deal with the store owners these days, and he can't even let the young master deal with these trivial matters himself.
"The signboard of our Youshi Inn is Dangdang. Everyone who has been here knows our credibility. Please give me a hundred thoughts." The waiter was used to seeing such people, and he patted his chest while leading the three of them into the inn.
