The old Chinese doctor in the courtyard
Chapter 11 Barter
Chapter 11 Barter
With Master Hai's approval, Li Shengli quickly took out the coat and the marching blanket, and hung them on the drying line.
The big-toed shoes and leather backpacks in the wing room were also placed in the shade of the yard to diffuse the musty smell from them.
As soon as he finished his busy work here, Zhao Mankui led a few villagers into the yard, saw the coat on the hanging line, he glanced at Li Shengli and said.
"Shengli, this coat is a good thing, the Kwantung Army's dog fur coat.
Those big-toed shoes with linings were also used by the Kwantung Army.
This is something kept by the Ministry of Armed Forces, and now these good things are not available anywhere else.
Boss, find some benches for your uncles to sit down on. "
Zhao Mankui is a man of knowledge, and he can tell the source of things at a glance.
This made Li Shengli's heart tighten. Bringing these things back to Sijiu City might cause trouble.
With Zhao Mankui's order, Lord Hai's grandson went into the house and took out some benches and horses.
The few villagers who came back with Zhao Mankui were not polite, and they sat in a pile with Master Hai.
"I said man, can you change your dog fur coat?
I have a Tan sheep leather jacket at home, authentic purple lambskin, the kind that cannot be pierced by the wind. "
As soon as everyone sat down, an old man in his 50s with an injury on his waist opened his mouth, and immediately solved Li Shengli's troubles.
He was about to say yes, but Hai Ye who was sitting against the wall spoke first.
"I said Zhao Laogan, why don't you take advantage and die?
Although we are in the same family, I am not biased towards you in this matter.
The ragged leather jacket of yours was obtained from the Landlord Wang's house when the land was allotted back then, right?
Tan sheep?
Purple lamb skin?
What nonsense!
If I hadn't hurt my leg, I would have kicked you out with one kick.
Victory is a doctor, and if you dare to take advantage of a doctor, you are not afraid of dying on the kang. "
Zhao Laogan is a lazy man in Zhao's family. Although he is related to relatives, Zhao Sihai didn't give him any good face.
Army coats, no matter whether he is on active duty or belongs to a little devil, as long as it is a yellow-green army coat, it is a rare thing nowadays.
Zhao Sihai doesn't know anything else, but a pure sheepskin military coat is worth more than one hundred.
The ragged leather jackets from the village can be sold for five or ten yuan in the market, even if the recipient is not guilty of conscience.
Although it is now a unified purchase and sales, there are still bazaars, and the products produced by each family's private land can still be exchanged for things in the bazaar.
Zhao Laogan, who was stunned by Zhao Sihai, can also wipe his face.
Turning his head and giving everyone a smile, he was still determined to get the military coat on the hanging line.
"Brother Hai, don't expose your faults.
Shengli, I still have some ancient medical books at home, can you exchange them? "
Zhao Lao dared not to give in, which made Zhao Sihai very unhappy. He picked up the walking stick beside him and slapped him, angrily reprimanded.
"If you want to change, take out something good.
In addition to the old leather jacket and ancient medical books, you also carried a medicine box back from the Landlord Wang's house back then.
There are also those horn cups and bead strings, all of which are used for Shengli to have a look.
Now Dayang's family also has it, and take it out, that thing is only worth two yuan in the city.
A military overcoat can be sold for 100 yuan, and now you don’t want these rags for free. "
As for the big and small things in Wali Village, Zhao Sihai has a clear family, and the branch secretary of Wali also hangs around in Zhao's house.
Zhao Sihai knew all about Zhao Laogan's family background.
According to his values, the things just mentioned are not worth a dog fur military coat.
"Uncle, my father is right, the Kwantung Army's dog fur coats are better than sheepskin coats.
When I was in North Korea, it was [-] to [-] degrees below zero, and there was nothing wrong with wearing it on my body, and there was no wind at all.
100 yuan is more or less. I don't think it is enough for the items in your house.
Moreover, keeping those things is a disaster, and it may not be a good thing to spread them out.
The cotton shoes made by my old aunt are pretty good. If you take another two or three pairs, I think Victory's feet are about the same size as yours. "
After Zhao Sihai finished speaking, his son Zhao Mankui didn't intend to make Li Shengli suffer, so he made up for it.
According to Zhao Mankui, he has been to North Korea and is a hero.
"Okay, as long as you two are fair, I am Mankui's uncle anyway, wait.
Grandson, go home with uncle to get things, my old waist..."
Mr. Zhao, who had been beaten up by his family, knew he was wrong, and didn't say much. He took Zhao Mankui's eldest son, supported his waist, and went home to get his things.
As the eldest grandson of the family, the boss of the Zhao family was also unlucky. During this period of time, he was completely ordered.
"Shengli, people in the village, it's inevitable that they love to take advantage of small things, don't mind.
You guys, the matter of changing things is all rotten in your stomach, so don't go out and be careless. "
First, he apologized to Li Shengli, then glanced at the injured, and Zhao Sihai also showed the aura of the branch secretary.
"My lord, I didn't take it to heart either.
Uncle, let me show you first, your legs are congested.
Brother Zhao, I have to trouble you to bring out the aconite wine from last night. "
When several people entered the hospital, Li Shengli took a rough look. Except for Zhao Laogan, most of the injuries were on the legs.
Li Shengli can't solve the problem of wrong bone setting. In the novel, breaking the bone and then setting the bone is pure nonsense.
The healed affected part of the bone is stronger than the normal bone, and there is no image. If it is broken by hand, it will only hurt more.
"Victory, huh?
Just call me Big Brother Zhang. I and the Party Secretary are of the same generation, please. "
The old brother Zhang, who was about to catch up with Master Hai, rolled up his trouser legs after speaking. Li Shengli touched it a few times and got a general idea of the situation.
"Brother Zhang, the skill of setting your bones is mediocre, the bones are somewhat crooked.
But the effect is not big, smoothing the tendons, it should not be like now, limping. "
As he said that, Li Shengli dipped in the aconitum wine and began to smooth and gather tendons for Brother Zhang.
After a little effort, he smoothed away the lumps that had gathered together.
"Brother Zhang, your muscles and bones are strong, I am young and my hands are not strong enough, so I can barely open it today.
After you go home, learn my technique and stroke it several times a day. It is best to have medicinal wine, and you can make ends meet without it.
Come on, get up and try it. "
The tendon gathering after the bone injury has healed is also a major chronic disease of the bone setting technique, which cannot be avoided at all.
Once you don't pay attention, the inconvenience in your legs and feet will still be mild after the muscles are gathered. There are not a few people like Lao Zhang who are limping and affecting their work and life.
"Old Uncle Hai, victory is truly amazing!
My leg is healed, it's great! "
After walking a few steps, Lao Zhang shouted excitedly, he is not a lazy man like Zhao Lao dare not to work because of his back injury.
Although lame can do farm work, he dare not go to the mountains to farm and collect herbs.
If you have bad legs and feet and go up the mountain, you are looking for death. If a bone rolls down the mountain, you will be smashed to pieces.
"Victory, good skill."
Seeing that Li Shengli was cured of his illness, Zhao Sihai also gave a thumbs up, this kid is amazing.
The rest of them were mostly the same as Lao Zhang. Li Shengli didn't put much effort here, and he smoothed out his muscles and bones for a few people, which won a lot of praise.
"Yo...why is it so lively?
Victory, everything is here, can you see if you can change it? "
Zhao Laogan, who came back with his things, saw the lively atmosphere in the courtyard, so he came over, not forgetting his dog fur coat.
Zhao Laogan brought back a lot of things, besides a black double-breasted sheepskin jacket, there were also two bundles of ancient books tied with hemp rope.
Then there is the medicine box carried on the shoulders of the grandson of the Zhao family, and he is also carrying a bundle of ancient books in his hand.
"Victory, there are five oceans in the medicine box, you should look at the things first."
The audience said that Li Shengli's technique was miraculous, and Zhao Laogan was also careful.
His waist was getting older a few years ago, and it was stretched when he was holding things. The old woman in the village who was able to deliver babies pressed it a few times, but the effect was not very good.
The back injury affects life very much. If it can be cured, this young doctor cannot be offended.
"it is good!
Let me consider. "
In Li Shengli's view, an old leather jacket is enough, and the rest is earned.
Changing out the general's coat is tantamount to getting rid of trouble, so why not do it?
I opened the medicine box casually and took a look. It was the medicine and medical equipment that the doctor used to put in when he was visiting.
The workmanship is very fine, the color of the yellow card is a bit like the legendary huanghuali, because it is covered with patina and the texture cannot be seen clearly, so he has no way of judging whether it is real or not.
But he can accurately judge the rhino horn cup and agarwood beads in the medicine box.
Rhinoceros horn and chinan incense are regarded as the treasures of traditional Chinese medicine. Li Shengli has also carefully pondered and studied medicinal materials that are worth tens of thousands of gold in later generations.
The rhinoceros horn cup is a real object with a wide open door. As for the strings of agarwood beads, whether it is Qinan or not, he still needs to observe carefully.
As for the few silver dollars in the medicine box, it's just a tip, it doesn't matter to him.
"Master Hai..."
Li Shengli, who had already made up his mind, did not dare to speak to Mr. Zhao immediately, but looked at Lord Hai.
"Change if you want, don't be afraid if you don't want to, we men in Wali have the final say.
He, Mr. Zhao, dares not and does not dare to make things difficult for you. "
After listening to Master Hai's support, Li Shengli tried on a sheepskin jacket. It was a little too big for him, but it was still wearable.
"Uncle Zhao, I changed.
There is also a pair of big-toed shoes with fur linings at the foot of the wall. If you want them too, I plan to replace them with cotton shoes.
The cotton shoes made by my aunt are very good. "
Li Shengli didn't want the dog fur coat, and neither did the two pairs of big-toed shoes.
These things are not much better to wear than cotton shoes. It is better to change into a few more pairs of cotton shoes and go home, so that the family can soak in the rain and dew.
"Shengli, big-toed shoes are not cheap, and you can exchange them for a dozen or 20 yuan when you go back to the city.
It's a waste to change to cotton shoes. "
Zhao Mankui, who was born in the army, has a different feeling for big-toed shoes. Seeing that Li Shengli doesn't want big-toed shoes, he feels a little pity in his heart.
"I brought all the new cotton shoes from my house, do you want to change them with other things?"
In addition to the military coat, Zhao Lao dared to like big-toed shoes. Seeing that Li Shengli wanted to change it, he naturally wanted it.
"You man, why do you want to take advantage?
Victory, just put the shoes on, and wait for Master Hai to change them for you.
Dare, let Shengli show you his waist first, and later he will follow the boss and the others to catch fish! "
After glaring at Zhao Laogan fiercely, Zhao Sihai helped Li Shengli take over the shoe exchange business.
The conditions in Wali Village are pretty good, and there are not a few villagers who can change their big-toed shoes if they want to.
Zhao Laogan, whose family has been emptied, is obviously not among them.
Zhao Laogan's waist injury, that is, a protruding lumbar disc, is not difficult for Li Shengli.
It's just that his waist injury, in addition to manual reset, also needs to be supplemented with medicine, and the effect will be slower.
After cleaning up the wounded, the boss of the Zhao family will take Li Shengli and his brothers out to catch fish.
Before leaving, Li Shengli thought of his leather backpack, so he said something more.
"Master Hai, is there anyone in our village who can change backpacks?
I want to convert several of my backpacks into one big one. "
This request made Master Hai a little embarrassed. There are many capable people in the valley, but there is no cobbler.
Without a cobbler, it would be difficult to change the backpack. I was about to tell Li Shengli, but my son Zhao Mankui stopped me.
"I know how to change it. I changed it when I was in the army. The little devil is petty and can't pretend to be anything.
I'll find someone to change it for you. "
Things were basically in order, and Li Shengli, who put down his burden, also decided to try the hunting experience taught by Brother Tong.

With Master Hai's approval, Li Shengli quickly took out the coat and the marching blanket, and hung them on the drying line.
The big-toed shoes and leather backpacks in the wing room were also placed in the shade of the yard to diffuse the musty smell from them.

Those big-toed shoes with linings were also used by the Kwantung Army.
This is something kept by the Ministry of Armed Forces, and now these good things are not available anywhere else.
Boss, find some benches for your uncles to sit down on. "
Zhao Mankui is a man of knowledge, and he can tell the source of things at a glance.
This made Li Shengli's heart tighten. Bringing these things back to Sijiu City might cause trouble.
With Zhao Mankui's order, Lord Hai's grandson went into the house and took out some benches and horses.
The few villagers who came back with Zhao Mankui were not polite, and they sat in a pile with Master Hai.
"I said man, can you change your dog fur coat?

As soon as everyone sat down, an old man in his 50s with an injury on his waist opened his mouth, and immediately solved Li Shengli's troubles.
He was about to say yes, but Hai Ye who was sitting against the wall spoke first.
"I said Zhao Laogan, why don't you take advantage and die?
