The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Chapter 1074 Distributing the Medicine

Beside them, Lu Qingqing, Bai Song, and Qian Chengzhi exchanged glances and nodded.

Bai Song climbed the ladder and looked at Cui Shitou.

"We will continue to prepare this medicine for you from now on."

Until your family member's illness improves!

Upon hearing this, Cui Shitou, who was outside the wall, was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly with gratitude.

The white pine tree waved its hand.

"Don't thank me yet. There are conditions to giving you the medicine!"

Nowadays, quite a few people in the mountains have this disease!

I need you to gather at least fifty people and go up the mountain to count the number of sick people.

After that, he delivered medicine to sick people every day.

Don't worry, there will definitely be enough medicinal herbs.

However, there is one condition: the medicine must be given to the sick person.

If I find out you've used this medicine to make money.

Or something else, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Upon hearing the threatening words, Cui Shitou hesitated for only a second before agreeing.

"Sir, please rest assured."

My family has been on good terms with several households before, so we can definitely gather fifty people.

You can rest assured about the medicine delivery.

As long as my dad and brother can get better from the medicine, I'd be happy to be boiled in oil.

I, Cui Shitou, hereby swear that I will fulfill your request.

If I harbor any evil intentions, may I be struck by lightning and suffer an eternal, horrible death!

People in this era still believe in such vows.

Bai Song waved his hand when he heard him say that.

"Alright, go and get someone to count the number of people now!"

"After you've tallied the quantities, come to me to collect your medicine!"

Cui Shitou immediately agreed and quickly left.

After Bai Song and the others saw him leave, they went to look at Sun Laohai, who was still leading people to build a wall.

Sun Laohai and the others also heard what was said earlier. Knowing that the illness outside could be cured, they felt much more at ease.

However, the work on his hands never stopped.

He noticed that some people were relaxing, so he went up to greet them.

The group continued building the wall.

Bai Song and Lu Qingqing walked back, discussing the remaining details as they went.

They all knew that there were probably quite a few people outside who had contracted the disease this time.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Song dispatched some extra soldiers to help brew the medicine.

Old Zhuang and Sun Yue were processing the medicinal herbs on the spot.

Qin Lang and Lu Qingqing were responsible for distributing the water and prepared medicinal herbs to various places where the medicine was being brewed, using a cart.

Of course, both of them knew perfectly well that the key ingredient in this medicine was the spatial water.

When distributing them, I gave them a special instruction.

Something else was added to the medicine, and the person brewing the medicine was not allowed to change the water.

After working for more than an hour, pot after pot of medicinal soup was cooked and ladled into buckets.

Immediately afterwards, they were pushed to the stone wall by a cart.

Over here, the process of boiling the medicine is proceeding smoothly.

On the other hand, Cui Shitou and others, who were responsible for counting patients, were not doing so well.

At this time, many refugees sealed off their territories, preventing outsiders from approaching.

Even though the person who went to collect the data said that after they counted the number of people, they were going to deliver medicine to them, they still didn't receive a reply.

Of course, they wouldn't have believed this before.

How can a pie fall from the sky?

However, at this point, they also understand those who do not believe.

In order to complete the statistics before dark, they had no choice but to record the forces that had not been counted.

I plan to talk to Bai Song and the others about it when I get back.

Whether or not to distribute the medicine to them is naturally up to Bai Song and his group to decide.

Adhering to this principle made the subsequent statistical work much smoother.

After Lu Qingqing and the others finished brewing the medicine and waited for a while, the approximate quantity on the other side was also tallied.

There are still more than 3,000 people on the mountain, but the number of sick people has reached as many as 500.

That's no small amount!

Even without considering the medicine, the amount of water consumed by these 500-plus people must have been considerable!

Fortunately, Lu Qingqing had added extra water when she was boiling the medicine.

At this point, the thin-colored medicine was divided into small buckets for fetching water.

The soldiers pulled him by a rope, carried him outside the wall, and laid him shakily on the ground.

Cui Shitou and the others outside the wall were so excited when they saw the still-steaming medicine that their hands were trembling.

They were the first to step forward, scoop out several bowls, and leave some for their sick family members.

Then, they used a carrying pole to scoop water and began to distribute it.

Before he could even take a few steps, a group of homeless people with illnesses rushed up to him.

"Please give me some medicine, my son is sick, please!"

Fortunately, Cui Shitou and his men had arranged for guards in advance.

At this moment, the guards stopped the refugees outside and shouted loudly.

"Everyone who is sick will receive a share. Go back to your original location and wait. We will deliver the supplies to each family one by one!"

If it spills, nobody should drink it!

After shouting for a while, the scene finally quieted down.

Cui Shitou and the others did indeed deliver the goods to each household as previously agreed.

As soon as those families received the medicine, they immediately fed it to their family members.

After the medicine buckets were distributed and people returned to collect their medicine, the first group of people who had drunk the medicine had already woken up.

Now everyone knows the medicine worked!

Seeing this, Cui Shitou simply recruited more people to help them distribute the medicine.

With more people, efficiency also begins to increase.
