Chapter 2263 I Am Finished
On the day of departure, the train station was crowded with people who came to see them off. Shen Long and Wu Lien-teh waved goodbye to them wearing the badge of "Plague Fighter". For their contributions to the fight against the epidemic in Northeast China, the Qing government originally decided to award them a plaque of "Plague Fighters" so that they could take it back and hang it at home.
However, Shen Long felt that the plaque was too inconvenient, so he suggested to Xiliang to change it into a commemorative badge, so everyone in the team of Shen Long and Wu Liande got such a badge, and now they all wear it carefully on their chests. Walking in the Northeast with this badge, you can receive warm hospitality there.
The good wood that was planned to make the plaque at the beginning was not wasted. The chef at this meeting was the head chef of Binjiang Guandao, a famous chef Zheng Xingwen. Because of his good dishes, he was given a plaque of "Binjiang Shanzu".
Zheng Xingwen traveled all his life and met many dignitaries and literati. It was inevitable that he often went to restaurants and teahouses for business and entertainment. He was obsessed with cooking techniques unconsciously. Every time he tasted a new dish, he would go to the kitchen to ask the chef for advice, and he would not stop until he researched it thoroughly. , So people gave him the nickname "Zheng Yipin". Later, he tried every means to enter Prince Gong's Mansion to learn how to cook court dishes.
Zheng Xingwen integrated all kinds of cuisines, took their essence, perfected them day by day, and practiced them in Zhenweiju Restaurant, an old chef's restaurant run by himself, and finally formed his own flavor; The restaurant had to close down, because the eunuchs were very jealous of this stuff, thinking it was an insult to castrated eunuchs like them.
Afterwards, Zheng Xingwen went to the Northeast and used the local rich yellow mushrooms, hazel mushrooms, bears, deer, roe deer, deer, pheasant, dragon, wild ducks, etc. to invent many famous dishes with Northeast characteristics. It was his invention. When Shen Long opened a restaurant in the world of "Crossing Guandong", he often referred to the dishes he invented.
Zheng Xingwen also came to see him off today, "Mr. Wu, Mr. Bai, and everyone, next time you come to the Northeast, you must say hello. I will definitely use my housekeeping skills to cook for you."
Others also talked one after another, "Qi Ye, I heard that the old Baijia of Baicao Hall in Beijing belongs to your family? From now on, as long as it is the medicinal materials that Baicao Hall needs, no matter whether it is ginseng, deer antler or pine nuts, we will give you the best price. You don’t have to go to the Northeast to do the hard work, if you need anything, just send a telegram and we’ll make it ready for you and send it to the capital!”
"Qiye, this is the old mountain ginseng that our family treasures. If you don't mind it, you can take it back!" I didn't expect to come to the Northeast, and there is such a good thing. But it is much more convenient.
"I can't ask for this in vain. Such a big wild ginseng is worth at least two thousand taels of silver. If you are willing to part with it, I will give you two thousand taels. If you don't accept it, then I have no choice but to let it go!" Of course, Shen Long It was definitely not in vain, I just paid for it after some pushback, and then thanked those enthusiastic drug dealers, drug farmers, and drug collectors.
"I appreciate everyone's kindness, but business is business. In the future, we will follow the market for whatever goods Baicao Hall wants." For Shen Long, temporary cheapness is not worth caring about, and a long-term and stable purchase channel is the key. Most importantly, with this kind of favor, even if the little devils occupy the Northeast in the future, Baicao Hall will not have to worry about the lack of rare Chinese medicinal materials such as ginseng, deer antler, and pine nuts, which are special products in the Northeast.
"Qiye is benevolent and righteous! We will keep any good things for you in the future, and you don't want us to sell them to others!" Everyone was also in admiration, and expressed their willingness to cooperate with Baicao Hall for a long time.
"Everyone, it's getting late. The train should leave. Let's go back first. When you get to the capital in the future, come to Baicao Hall to find me. I'll have a few drinks with you!" Shen Long, Wu Liande and others Back to the carriage, but none of the people on the platform left, they reluctantly waved goodbye.
The siren sounded, the train started slowly, rattled and rattled, and slowly drove out of the station. People on the platform trotted along with the train. Many people shouted the names of Wu Lien-teh and others with tears in their eyes until they could not catch up. After they stopped, many people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to them to thank them.
This scene made Shen Long's nose sore for a while, what a good people, Wu Lien-teh said after wiping his tears, "This is an unforgettable moment in my life, and it is also the proudest moment in my life."
"Our China is a plague-prone country, and you will probably encounter such occasions many times in the future!" Shen Long said, Wu Lien-teh not only participated in the fight against the epidemic this time, after the Northeast plague this time, he also parted ways. The organization put out the pneumonic plague and cholera that broke out in Northeast China, Shanghai and other places in 1919, 1920, 1926, and 1932. Countless people survived, which can be described as immeasurable merit.
"I wish there would be fewer such things." Wu Lien-teh sighed, but he also felt that this was unrealistic. At present, China's public health work is still very primitive, and outbreaks of various plagues are hard to avoid.
They were really exhausted in the past few months, so they fell asleep on the chairs not long after getting in the car. They only ate and slept along the way. They didn't recover a little until they arrived in the capital.
When they left from the Northeast, they received a warm farewell. When they returned to the capital, countless people came to greet them, including teachers and students who stayed behind at the medical center, students from the Imperial University, and colleagues from the medical field in the capital, of course. Not to mention my relatives and friends.
Huang Chun came here with Bai Jingye, Bai Jinggong and Bai Jiali, Wu Liande's wife and children also stood with them, Xu Dingchao and other members of the medical team's relatives and friends also came. As soon as the train stopped, they couldn't wait to see each other. Hug got out of the car and hugged the children.
Then they got into the carriage and went home together. After eating, they went back to bed and had a good sleep. The next day they had to accept banquets from all parties, and their lives returned to normal after half a month of busy work.
Wu Lien-teh went back to Jinmen to teach, and Shen Long and Bai Yuting also returned to the hospital to continue working. After this incident, the number of patients who came to their hospital to see a doctor and the students who applied for their school increased. They can even solve the plague. Not to mention daily ailments? So that when someone comes to the hospital, they have to find those doctors who have been to the Northeast, regardless of whether their illness is suitable for these doctors to see.
But when the Affiliated Hospital of Jingshi University Hall Medical Center became more and more prosperous, my Qing Dynasty came to an end.
