Chapter 413:
The popularity of the two days after queuing up to see Dr. Xu decreased slightly, but it was still very popular.
In just three days, only half of the coal in one warehouse was sold, and one-third of the quilts and clothes in the other warehouse were sold.
With more than three times the profit, Wei Ruo made a huge profit.
Three days later, half of the temporary relief shelter conceived by Wei Ruo was built. Because the structure was simple, many of the timbers used were readily available, and the craftsmen hired were skilled, so construction took less time.
The overall structure of the relief shelter is made of wood, which is simple but sturdy. There are two large stoves built in. Three of the four walls are blocked by wooden boards, and the fourth side is only covered with a cloth curtain.
After the half was completed, Wei Ruo immediately asked people to cook porridge with the large stove and large boiler inside, and began to distribute porridge to the people affected by the disaster...
However, within half a day, the news of porridge distribution spread.
Many people came here to see the shelter, and the shelter was crowded with people.
The two large pots of porridge were all distributed in less than half a day. I cooked another pot at noon and continued the distribution in the afternoon.
At the same time, the other side is also under construction in full swing.
This side is going to be used as a medical center, so construction is relatively slow.
Although the medical center has not yet been built, the news that Xu He is sitting in the clinic has spread.
Regarding Xu Heyou, most people have never seen him. They only heard about him when the epidemic broke out last year.
However, the famous doctors in the city all spoke highly of this man. In addition, some officials announced his name and commended him for his achievements in controlling the epidemic. Therefore, everyone spoke highly of Doctor Xu, who had never appeared in public.
Knowing that he had funded the construction of the relief shelter, distributed free porridge to the clinic, and asked him to attend the clinic in person, everyone could not help but be full of expectations.
The news spread throughout the city and reached Wei Qingwan's ears.
Xu Heyou, this name is familiar to Wei Qingwan, because the scar removal ointment she used was made by Dr. Xu.
After she applied Xu Heyou's ointment for a period of time, the scars on her back faded significantly.
However, this ointment was consumed very quickly, and the second box was almost used up. She would buy the rest when she used up the rest.
It's just that she doesn't have enough money. She has tried all the ways she can think of, but the money is still not enough.
When Grandma Li went to Tongdetang to buy scar removal ointment for the second time, she tried to communicate with the people at Tongdetang.
But the people from Tongdetang told them that they were just selling on behalf of them and had no power to change the price.
If you want to change the price, you need Dr. Xu's consent.
People from Tongdetang also said that Dr. Xu is a very kind-hearted person. When he sees patients in need, he will take the initiative to reduce the price or even give away his own medicines for free.
If she could see Dr. Xu in person, there might be a way to get him to relent and sell some to her at a low price.
However, Wei Qingwan never had the chance to meet Dr. Xu himself, and she didn't know where to find him.
Unexpectedly, Xu Heyou himself would conduct a free clinic this time. This was a rare opportunity to see him in person.
So Wei Qingwan asked Cuihe to go outside and find out when the medical center would be built.
After Cuihe went outside to inquire around, she came back with good news: the temporary medical center of the relief center will be built in the next two days, and free clinics should start immediately after it is completed.
Wei Qingwan was deep in thought, her expression looking solemn.
"What's wrong, miss?" Cuihe asked with concern.
"I need to find a way to see Dr. Xu."
"Miss, you are the rich daughter of the general's mansion. It is not convenient for you to go out. Let me and my mother go." "
No, I would be more sincere in doing this in person. Some. If you make Doctor Xu unhappy, it will be difficult for me to find him again." Wei Qingwan refused. "Miss, you are a rich man, and you have been granted a marriage by the Holy Spirit, so you have a distinguished status. There are many people in the relief center, so it is really inconvenient for you to go there."
"What kind of body is a rich man with scars?" Wei Qingwan laughed at herself, "Isn't Wei Qingruo always running away? In the past few days, he has been rushing to provide disaster relief and so on. Why can't I go to places where she can go? ?"
Wei Qingwan has made up her mind, as long as her back can be restored to its original state, she will pay any price.
###
Two days later, the temporary medical center was completed, and more people came to the relief center.
In the morning, before the medical center officially opened, a long queue formed at the door, longer than the porridge queue next door.
The walls of the temporary medical center are made of wooden boards. The so-called door is a curtain, and people queuing are outside the curtain.
There was a burly man guarding the curtain to prevent anyone from breaking the rules.
The queue was very long. Wei Qingwan and Cui He, who came late, were at the back of the queue.
The two masters and servants changed into coarse cloth clothes, because this free clinic is mainly for the common people, and if you line up in a line with gorgeous clothes, you will be looked down upon by the people around you.
There were poor people in coarse clothes in front and behind. Wei Qingwan could not help but frowned when she smelled the smell of the other party, and covered her mouth and nose with her hands.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
The person behind him began to cough violently. The sound of coughing made Wei Qingwan feel uncomfortable all over, and the spittle he coughed up seemed to be sprayed on her.
Wei Qingwan wanted to run away immediately in disgust.
"Miss, if you bear with me a little longer, I'll be in line soon. Dr. Xu seems to be quite famous, and it's a free clinic, so there will naturally be more people." Cuihe comforted in a low voice.
"I know."
Wei Qingwan felt very unhappy, but she could only endure it. Having come to this point, she definitely couldn't give up halfway.
In order to come to see Dr. Xu, she made a lot of determination.
After a while, the team started to move, which meant that Mrs. Xu had arrived.
However, the procession was very slow. An hour passed, and Wei Qingwan found that she was still far away from entering the medical center.
Wei Qingwan could no longer stand: "How many people are there in front?"
"I'll go take a look."
Cui He ran to the front to check, and then came back and told Wei Qingwan: "Miss, I have counted, there are still thirteen people. "
Why are there so many people?"
"Miss, if you bear with me, we'll be there soon."
"What else can you do if you don't wait for me?"
You've been waiting for so long. If you give up now, you will suffer a lot in the future. It's all in vain.
Another half hour passed, and there were only three people left in front of Wei Qingwan.
However, at this moment, a voice came from the relief center:
"Doctor Xu is going to rest. The next free clinic doctor is Dr. Cheng from Zhengyu Hall!"
Hearing this, everyone in line was stunned. Doctor Cheng from Zhengyu Hall? Xu He, is Dr. Xu gone?
But everyone was just a little confused and didn't have any opinions.
As long as he is providing free medical treatment to everyone, who cares who he is?
Furthermore, the reputation of Dr. Cheng of Zhengyutang is no worse than that of Dr. Xu.
