Chapter 614: Two Sisters Visit Jiangnan
Chapter 614: Two Sisters Visit Jiangnan
Three days passed quickly.
Jiang Fubao and Jiang Ruyi did not return to Qixi County immediately.
It's a rare opportunity to get out, so of course you have to have fun.
On the fourth day, the two sisters slept until they woke up naturally, and then traveled around Jiangnan City with bulging wallets.
Fang Yanheng also specially sent five servants to protect them to prevent any accidents.
It just so happened that five servants came to bring things to the two sisters.
Everyone has his hands full.
Jiang Fubao did not treat them badly. During the meal, he ordered a lot of meat for them so that they would not be too tired after strolling around all day.
Today, there are still many people queuing up at the Changshou Restaurant. The late guests are extremely disappointed when they learn that the young doctor is no longer in the restaurant.
There was no way. Word of mouth spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people. They knew that the news had been circulating for several days.
But since they had already arrived and saw that there was an old man seeing patients in the restaurant, most of the people chose to stay and queue up.
The activity period has passed. If you stay to eat the medicinal food after taking your pulse, the consultation fee will be waived. If you don’t want to eat, you only need to pay five copper coins, which is not expensive.
After all, taking a pulse in a clinic costs several copper coins, or even more.
With Jiang Fubao taking the lead, and having learned from her for a period of time, the Fang family's doctor was very quick in taking a pulse.
The time used is more than half less than before.
Efficiency has also been greatly improved.
The Changshou Restaurant was packed with people, and one even had to queue up to eat the medicinal food.
As a result, the business of nearby restaurants was affected.
Many shopkeepers were furious.
There were a few other people who pretended to be diners and quietly came to the outside of the Changshou Restaurant to inquire, and they were also preparing to come in to taste the medicinal food in the Changshou Restaurant.
If Fang Yanheng hadn't been doing business for half his life, he probably wouldn't have discovered it.
But he didn't expose it.
He quietly spoke to the court doctor and asked him to check the pulse of the three people.
He also specifically instructed that I should prescribe the most expensive medicinal food recipe and not the cheap one.
Several people either had kidney deficiency or insufficient yang energy. When they heard that the prescribed medicinal food could strengthen their yang energy, some of them who originally did not want to eat changed their attitudes and stayed.
"Brother Chen, is this medicinal food really that magical? Were we deceived? The three of us paid a full twenty taels of silver, which is not cheap."
One of them said in a low voice.
Afraid that other tables would hear it.
"Since you're here, why not try it? The business of our three restaurants and restaurants has been snatched away. Aren't you in a hurry? It's better to try it and you'll know what's going on."
The man called Brother Chen replied.
"Well, it's strange to say that this small business has such a great background that it even invited the world's number one doctor appointed by the emperor. I heard that the emperor even wrote a calligraphy and gave it to Doctor Jiang. If you hang this in your home, you will definitely be rich and powerful in the future.
This calligraphy and title can ensure the safety of her descendants. Even if the prefect sees her, he will have to be polite to her. The emperor may recruit the miracle doctor into the palace someday, who dares to offend her? I also heard that the miracle doctor seems to be very beautiful. If the emperor takes a fancy to her... "
Before this person could finish his words, he was pushed on the arm by the person he was traveling with.
"Hush! Shut up! Walls have ears, don't let your mouth cause trouble! Don't you know how tragically the governor of Enxin died? In the past three days, Changshou Restaurant has offended so many people, but why no one dares to cause trouble? You and I know it in our hearts. If not, the three of us would not come here to taste this useless medicinal food.
We can't afford to offend the miracle doctor. She cured the plague. This alone can ensure that she will have no worries in her life. We don't know what the relationship is between her and the owner of this Changshou Restaurant. Anyway, try not to offend her. We will leave after tasting. Don't say anything treasonous. If someone with ulterior motives hears it, you and I will be in trouble."
The man looked around nervously, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the guests at other tables were busy eating their medicinal food and didn't hear anything.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. Why hasn't the medicinal food arrived yet? It's too slow."
Just as he was complaining, the waiter came up with a tray.
"Sir, here are your Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup, Zhiliu Pills, and Zhuyang Soup."
The waiter placed three dishes in front of them.
Just in front of each person was the medicinal food they were going to eat.
"It smells quite nice. Just this one per person?" Several people couldn't understand the medicinal recipe. Most of them had never heard of the medicinal ingredients used in it, so naturally they didn't know how many dishes there were in total.
I could only ask the waiter next to me.
"Yes, sir. Each person has a dish. They have been served. Please enjoy your meal."
After the waiter finished speaking, he returned to the backyard. There were too many customers and he had no time to waste.
"It's really expensive. Three dishes cost twenty taels. It's like robbing money. People who don't know would think that bandits have come down the mountain. Tsk tsk, our restaurant is not as cruel as them. But it's just three dishes. If you divide it evenly, each dish costs more than six taels of silver?"
"It's indeed expensive, but since you've already bought it, go ahead and try it and see how it tastes. If it's just average, this restaurant won't want repeat customers, so don't be afraid."
"Come and try it, it's delicious. I ate the lamb kidneys that I always eat, and it didn't smell or smell fishy at all. My wife made it for me before, but I couldn't eat it at all. I don't know how this chef prepared it. It's so tender and smooth in the mouth. If you don't know, you would think you are eating lamb meat that is less than one month old. Wow, the soup is also very fresh, it's delicious, no wonder the business is so good."
While two people were complaining, the other one had already started eating.
His pupils suddenly dilated, like cat's eyes.
It was as if I was eating some delicacy.
"Brother Li, you are exaggerating a bit, aren't you? Is it really that delicious? Why don't I believe it? I have tasted all the delicacies in the world, and I have eaten too many good things. How can this thing be delicious?"
"Brother Chen, if you don't believe me, just try it. It's really delicious."
Shopkeeper Li ate without even raising his head.
There was a spoon and a pair of chopsticks in the soup bowl. He held the spoon in his left hand and the chopsticks in his right hand, and ate with great pleasure.
It was early winter and the temperature had just dropped. My body, which had been a little cold, suddenly felt very hot.
Shopkeeper Li's face turned red.
"Oh, it's really delicious, but it's too expensive. If it's sold for two taels of silver per bowl, it would be fine, but it's so expensive, how many people can afford it? Although there are many wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan, they are not fools. Just eating a dish, he spends so much money. No matter how much money he has, it's not enough for him to spend like this."
Although Shopkeeper Chen also thought the food was delicious, he did not praise it. Instead, he curled his lips and complained that the price of Changshou Restaurant was too high.
"Do you think this thing is really useful?"
Shopkeeper Bai, who was standing by, stared at the Zhuyang Soup on the plate in a daze.
"What's the use? Even medicine is useless, but eating this thing is useful? You ate too much lamb kidneys, and you became stupid?"
Shopkeeper Chen rolled his eyes at him.
They had known each other for a long time. The three friends often made appointments to go to brothels together. After a few years of crazy fun, they were drained early.
So the face doesn’t look old, but the body is either suffering from kidney deficiency or insufficient yang energy.
The three of them had taken a lot of medicine in an attempt to replenish their bodies, but unfortunately, they had no effect.
