The trip was a success as Zhu Ping'an was in a much better mood after he successfully promoted and tried out the secret medicine for wounds in several military camps.
Seeing that his master was in a much better mood, a personal soldier finally couldn't hold back his doubts and boldly asked Zhu Pingan, "My lord, I don't understand. Aren't we going to sell the secret knife and sore medicine? Why are we rushing to give it away for free to other military camps and give it to their seriously injured patients for free? Then who are we going to sell our medicine to?"
After he finished speaking, another guard echoed him with doubts, "That's right, sir. We spent money to buy the secret knife and medicine from the Wuxi Miao people. Why are they giving it away for free? Also, it's obviously us who are helping them out of kindness, sending them medicine and saving the seriously injured in their camp, but it's as if we are asking something of them..."
In fact, even Liu Mu was somewhat puzzled, but he did not ask. He knew that the young master's visit must have a deeper meaning, but he could not figure out what the young master's deeper meaning was.
After hearing their questions, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile and explained softly: "Haha, this is called advertising. Advertising means to make it known widely. This is a necessary investment and also a high-return investment."
Seeing their more bewildered expressions, Zhu Pingan smiled and explained to them in concise language, "Let me put it this way. Even the best wine will not last long if it is hidden in a deep alley. If the wine is hidden in a deep alley, the aroma of the wine cannot spread out of the alley, and not many people will know about it, and naturally not many people will come to buy the wine. But if the aroma of the wine spreads out of the deep alley and more people can smell the aroma of the wine, it will naturally attract many drinkers, and then there will be an endless stream of people buying wine. We send them medicine and give them free medicine for seriously injured patients, which is to spread the aroma of the wine out of the alley and let more people know about the miraculous effect of the secret knife-wound medicine in our hands."
What the adults said seemed to make sense, but we still didn't quite understand. How can giving them the medicine for free make more people know that our medicine is good? What does this have to do with selling secret knife-created medicine? The bodyguards were still at a loss, with question marks in their eyes.
Looking at their still confused faces, Zhu Pingan smiled and continued: "After a few days, the seriously injured in their camp will recover and their injuries will be alleviated. Then they will become our living advertisements. Their personal experience is the best publicity for the miraculous effect of our secret knife medicine. A pack of medicine is equivalent to half a life. People who know about it will naturally be willing to compete to buy it. They will invisibly promote the miraculous effect of our secret medicine every day, and attract people to negotiate and buy our secret knife medicine every day. Over time, people who come to buy medicine will flock to it. Then our secret medicine will not have to worry about sales in the future. Isn't it nice to sit in the camp and count money?!"
"Hehe, smells good, smells good, hehehe..."
"So there are so many things to say when we deliver medicine to them. Your Excellency is indeed an Excellency."
The bodyguards couldn't help but grin. They finally understood why their master gave people free medicine. So that's how it was. So this was advertising.
On the second day, the sky cleared up and the temperature became much warmer, making it a good day to recuperate.
The wounded soldiers of the Zhejiang Army applied secret medicine for wounds, and those with more serious injuries also took secret medicine for wounds. After a day of rest, the wounded in the camp were much better. Even the seriously injured patients were much better. Even those who were dying and unconscious not only saved their lives, but also woke up and drank a large bowl of chicken soup and millet porridge. If he was not afraid that his body could not bear it, he would drink more than three bowls.
Liu Dadao, Liu Dachui and others are as strong as bulls and recover faster than ordinary people. After a night of rest, they can already go out for a walk. If it weren't for their slightly pale faces, it would be almost impossible to tell that they were injured.
In the afternoon, Doctor Liu, who had treated the wounded Zhejiang soldiers yesterday, came for a follow-up visit as scheduled.
This time, not only did he come, he also brought two doctors in their fifties with him. These two people were Doctor Li and Doctor Wang. They were famous doctors in Yingtian City who treated sword injuries and were quite famous in Yingtian City. It can be said that they were experts in treating sword injuries.
"Doctor Li, Doctor Wang, you went to Zhenwuying to see patients yesterday and worked hard all day. Today, I have to trouble you to come with me again. I will treat you to a drink later and thank you very much." Doctor Liu clasped his fists and thanked Doctor Li and Doctor Wang who were traveling with him.
"It's not about hardship or not, this is what we deserve. The Zhejiang Army is the hero who protected our Yingtian and is our benefactor. At that time, the Japanese pirates besieged the city. There were 100,000 officers and soldiers in the city, but none dared to go out to fight the Japanese pirates. Only the Zhejiang Army, less than a thousand of them, stepped forward and resolutely rushed towards the Japanese pirates. They first drove away the Japanese pirates, and then attacked and wiped out all of them overnight. Without them, we would not have the peaceful life we have today. They were injured when fighting the Japanese pirates. You invited us to come with you, which gave us the opportunity to repay you. In addition, we have long admired the commander of the Zhejiang Army, Mr. Zhu Ping'an. This time you invited us to come with you, which also gave us the opportunity to look up to Mr. Zhu, so we should treat you to a drink."
Doctor Li and Doctor Wang both smiled and clasped their fists in return.
After the three of them exchanged a few more pleasantries, Doctor Liu explained the reason for inviting them over. "There are several seriously injured patients like Hei San among the Zhejiang Army. Their injuries are so severe that they can only sacrifice their legs or hands to save their lives. However, seriously injured patients like Hei San cannot accept the reality of giving up their injured legs or hands. The same is true for Lord Zhu. He was deceived by some wild doctor with the 'secret knife-created medicine' and thought that taking it internally and applying it externally could save both his legs and hands and his life. Alas, they are our benefactors. How can we sit back and watch them lose their lives because of quack doctors and quack medicine? That's why we invite you to come and try to convince them that saving their lives is the most important thing."
"Well, don't worry, Doctor Liu. There are two similar seriously ill patients in Zhenwu Camp. They had no choice but to save their lives. This time, we will definitely help you convince them. They didn't die on the battlefield, but died at the hands of mediocre doctors and mediocre medicine. We must not let this tragedy happen!"
Doctor Li and Doctor Wang nodded vigorously, indicating that they would cooperate with Doctor Liu to persuade the seriously injured patients of the Zhejiang Army to accept reality and make the right choice.
This way and that... ... The three of them thought of reasons to persuade on the way and entered the temporary camp of the Zhejiang Army.
Doctor Li and Doctor Wang were very excited to meet Zhu Ping'an as they wished, but they did not forget the purpose of their trip.
First, he looked at the minor injuries, then the serious ones. When Dr. Liu re-examined the minor injuries, he found that they recovered much faster than he had expected.
Perhaps it was because the food was good that he recovered faster, Doctor Liu thought.
Soon, it was time to re-examine Heisan, and Dr. Liu gave Dr. Li and Dr. Wang a look.
The two knew that this was the point.
I went over the persuasive speech in my mind again, got my emotions in place, and was ready to speak.
The next second, they heard Doctor Liu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Ah?! This..."
Doctor Li and Doctor Wang Wenyan couldn't help but groan in their hearts. Could it be that Master Zhu and his men had used some secret medicine from a quack doctor yesterday, which made the patient's condition worse and they had missed the chance to save him? !
He hurried forward and silently took the patient's pulse.
"Eh?! This injury is not serious enough to save his life?! No, the wound has already scarred. He was injured yesterday, how could it heal so quickly today?! Also, looking at the size of the wound on his leg, the injury is very serious. In theory, just like what Doctor Liu said, if he wants to save his life, he can only sacrifice his leg..."
"Could it be the effect of that secret medicine?!"
The three of them looked at each other in shock, their eyes widened in disbelief...
