Chapter 625 Selling Rice
Her eyes fell on Gu Mu's legs, and she thought that since she had already helped, she might as well be a good person and help Gu Mu's legs again.
Gu Mu had long been impressed by Ji Yuntang's medical skills. She had never expected that although he looked young, his medical skills were so superb.
Hearing that Ji Yuntang wanted to help her treat her leg, Gu's mother was flattered.
She hurriedly said, "Girl, you have helped my family so much. How can I trouble you again?"
Ji Yuntang said: "Auntie, just think of it as me doing good deeds for myself. As a doctor, isn't my job to help patients get rid of their symptoms?"
"If not, why would I study medicine so hard?"
Gu Mu looked at Ji Yuntang and a smile appeared on her face.
"Girl, let me tell you this: you and the young master will definitely be blessed in the future. Your good fortune is yet to come!"
She was an uneducated person who had never seen the world, but when she saw Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe for the first time, she felt that they were a perfect match with extraordinary temperament.
After taking another look at each other's abilities and actions, Gu Mu felt that the two of them were even more extraordinary.
Although Luo Junhe is a man of few words, he had already chopped all the firewood piled outside the Gu family while he was waiting for Ji Yuntang, and he also helped them move all the firewood into the kitchen.
Ji Yuntang helped her cure her son's illness. It would be a lie for Gu's mother to say she was not touched.
How could the Gu family be so fortunate to have someone so helpful to them?
At this time, Ji Yuntang had already finished taking Gu Mu's pulse.
She found out that the man had injured his leg when he was young, and he walked around without resting well, and then he touched cold water and caught a cold.
Over time, her legs began to feel numb, swollen and painful, and she even walked with a limp.
To put it simply, this situation is the so-called old cold legs.
Ji Yuntang actually has his own way of treating chronic cold legs.
She described the pulse to Gu Mu, and then said, "Auntie, I'll give you acupuncture first to see if it can relieve the pain in your leg."
Gu Mu nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, young lady."
She had never had any hope for her legs, and had undergone many treatments when she was young, but there had been no improvement.
Gradually, her family's financial situation became increasingly difficult, and she gave up treatment.
Gu Mu knew very well that in a place like Liangzhoukou, finding a good doctor was harder than climbing to the sky.
The most important thing is that her family can't afford the extra money to treat her illness.
The legs were dragged like this for decades.
Ji Yuntang asked Gu's mother to wipe her legs with a hot towel and give her a leg massage.
Then, she took out a silver needle, roasted it over the fire, and slowly inserted the silver needle into her legs.
It was not until an hour later that she helped Gu Mu pull out the silver needle.
"Auntie, how do you feel now?" Ji Yuntang asked.
Gu Mu stood up, moved her legs gently, and immediately felt that her legs were not so painful.
She tried walking without crutches and unexpectedly found that she could walk more steadily and her limping symptoms were much relieved.
Gu's mother was overjoyed. She never thought that one day she would be able to walk without crutches.
And this was just the result of Ji Yuntang giving her acupuncture once.
Ji Yuntang also wrote a prescription for Gu Mu and did not charge them for the medicinal materials.
Because she was afraid that she would not have time to come again later, she prescribed a lot of medicine for the other party at one time.
Gu's mother thanked her repeatedly, "Miss, Master, thank you so much, you saved our whole family's lives."
Luo Junhe curled his lips, stepped forward and held Ji Yuntang's hand tightly, with their fingers interlocked.
"My wife has always been kind-hearted and likes to punish evil and promote good. You don't have to be so polite, ma'am."
Gu Mu looked at them, with a blessing in her eyes, "You two have such a good relationship."
Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe did not stay in the Gu family for long and returned to the city in a carriage.
They randomly found an inn, asked for a room upstairs, and stayed there for the time being.
Luo Junhe raised his eyebrows and asked Ji Yuntang, "Ah Tang is really going to do business and sell rice at Liangzhoukou tomorrow?"
Ji Yuntang poured himself a glass of water and looked at him with a smile, "Yes, tomorrow you are Boss Yun and I am Boss Yun's wife. I will take out ten stones of rice from the space, and then we will go to the street to sell it."
"I just don't believe that selling refined rice at a low price won't lure out that damn city lord."
Ji Yuntang had already thought about it. The thing that the people in Liangzhoukou lacked most now was food.
If she went to the city to sell refined rice at a low price, it would inevitably harm the interests of the city's merchants, and these people would definitely go to the City Lord's Mansion to complain.
But so what?
She is willing to sell her rice at a low price, that is her business and has nothing to do with them.
Even if the City Lord's Mansion has a long arm, it can't control other people selling things here, right?
Buying and selling things is a transaction between two parties.
Ji Yuntang wanted to see how this so-called Lord Jiang would respond.
The next day, before dawn, Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe got up and went out.
The two men found a deserted place, got two long carts, then took the rice out of the space and placed it on the carts one by one.
Ji Yuntang didn't take too much, only about 500 kilograms the first time.
After they pulled the rice into the city and found a suitable location to set up the stalls, the people of Liangzhoukou also got up and went out one after another.
Ji Yuntang was also very down-to-earth. She simply took out a homemade loudspeaker and started shouting to the crowd.
"Don't miss it if you pass by. The best refined rice is only ten cents a pound. Come and take a look!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly attracted the attention of a large group of ordinary people, who gathered around to join in the fun.
Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe's stalls were instantly surrounded by people.
After seeing the rice in the bag, some people asked in disbelief: "Is this really refined rice? I have never seen rice with such full grains."
Another man said, "Isn't refined rice sold for 500 coins per pound? How can it be so cheap? Could this be another trick used by unscrupulous merchants to fool us?"
"Yes, they raised the price of rice so high, and now they suddenly dropped it so low. What do they want to do? Do they want to force us, the grassroots people, to death?"
"..."
Luo Junhe looked at the crowd who were denouncing each other one by one. There was no joy on their faces about the price drop of rice. Instead, they were all attacking each other. He felt very complicated.
How much oppression have the people of Liangzhoukou suffered from officials and businessmen to become what they are now?
