Zhu Qing, the enemy, quickly explained: "Only charcoal can do this, other things can't."
Charcoal is hard to buy and more expensive than food, so many people are unwilling to spend the money to buy it.
However, they were willing to spend the money to arrange these things for Zhu Si.
In other words, the people in the village would rather be hungry and cold than Zhu Si.
It doesn’t matter who Zhu Si was in the past, but this time Zhu Si is Zhu Qing’s sister.
Family comes first, identity comes last. Even though Zhu Li became Zhu Si, their family still regarded her as family first.
Therefore, in order to thank the villagers, their family is trying their best to provide convenience to the villagers. They feel that it is worth it.
Moreover, every time the charcoal is distributed, it is always distributed in the Temple of the Sea, in the name of Zhu Si.
In fact, everyone knows that the Zhu family is subsidizing them. After this back and forth, everyone was extremely convinced of the Zhu family and Zhu Si.
Sheng Lian'er muttered: "That's not too bad."
This is also a way to win people's hearts. After all, the Zhu family can really afford this little charcoal money.
The four of them chatted and walked for a hundred meters before arriving at the Zhu family's old house in the center of the village.
The Zhu family's old house, like other houses in the village, is a house built with a mixture of stone and soil. But from the outside, it looks much more luxurious and spacious than other homes.
Two spacious, strong wooden doors open into a yard of about thirty square meters.
There are some two-finger-high vegetables growing on the vegetable plots on the left and right sides of the yard. It seems that they were sown recently.
Underneath the vegetable field is a woodshed and a shed for raising livestock, chickens and ducks, which are temporarily vacant. After all, Zhu Qing's family has moved to a new house, and it is impossible to raise livestock in the old house.
Opposite the main door are the main hall and rooms, with four rooms on the left and two on the left. The door to the room is opened uniformly into the main room.
However, one of the rooms has two doors. One door opens to the main room, and the other door opens to the courtyard.
This is also convenient if something urgent happens, so you can come out directly and be separated from the main room.
Walking further to the side, next to the main room is the kitchen room. The hut that attracted the most attention was in the corner next to the livestock shed.
Xu Shizhu's family moved to a large blue brick house with better furniture, so the furniture in the old house was not moved.
Maybe he knew they would come, so Zhu Qing furnished the old house with furniture in advance.
Of course, there are only simple tables, beds, a few rattan baskets and old wooden cabinets, and nothing else.
However, this already made Wen Xian extremely satisfied.
She looked at Zhu Qing gratefully and said, "I am very satisfied with the house. Mr. Qing will see how much the rent is. Let's rent it for half a year."
Half a year is enough. If you want to stay longer, you can renew the lease or build a new house.
Zhu Qing said quickly: "Miss Wen, you are so polite. The charcoal has already taken advantage of Miss Wen, and the taro brought by Miss Wen has already brought endless wealth to our Sun Island.
How can we collect rent for just one room? There are just empty old houses on the left and right. You can stay here for as long as you like. "
The longer you stay, the better. After all, this is a doctor. With her here, people on Sun Island will no longer have to travel all the way outside the island to seek medical treatment.
Moreover, it is difficult to travel thousands of miles away from the island to seek medical treatment. Most of the doctors will not come to the island. At most, you can just pick up some medicine according to your symptoms and take it back with you to endure it.
"That won't work." Wen Xian refused sternly, "One size fits all, this house must collect rent, otherwise we would rather find another house or live in a cave."
Favor debts are difficult to repay, and she doesn't want to bear any favor debts that can be settled with money.
She paused and continued: "Besides, I plan to open a small medical clinic here. If you don't collect rent, I won't dare to open it, so as not to cause any gossip."
Don't underestimate the people in the village. As the old saying goes, unruly people come out of poor mountains and bad waters, and they don't come out for no reason.
Some people just don't like others. She is really doing business in a free house, and she doesn't know what gossip will spread.
"Miss Wen plans to open a medical clinic?" Zhu Qing asked in surprise.
He really didn't expect that Wen Xian would take the initiative to talk about opening a medical clinic here. He originally planned to wait until some time later, after they integrated into Sun Island, before mentioning it.
Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "I have this idea, but I don't know if it is convenient or not."
After all, the villagers here usually go to Tanah Lot Temple to get free medicine if they have a minor illness or pain. This is a medical center that charges a fee.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Qing immediately said: "It's convenient, of course it's convenient. If Miss Wen opens a medical clinic on the island, it will be a blessing for us."
It turns out that the medicines that the villagers got for free at Tanah Lot Temple were all dug by the villagers themselves from the mountains.
After digging it out, it was handed over to Zhu Si and her maid to prepare it together. The prepared medicinal materials can be obtained for free when someone wants to use them.
Of course, there are limits to free medicine. How many herbs you dig up will be recorded accordingly. When waiting for use, you can only collect the portions in equal proportions.
After receiving your share, if you want to receive more, you can only borrow someone else's or hand over some medicinal materials.
This is also to prevent someone from cheating, not digging out any medicinal materials, but sitting back and enjoying the results, using what others have worked hard to prepare.
It also prevents someone from taking too much medicine, leaving others behind without any medicine.
Wen Xian praised: "This distribution method is the fairest. Is it the method passed down from generation to generation by your ancestors?"
Sure enough, the wisdom of our predecessors cannot be surpassed.
"That's right." Zhu Qing said with a smile, "So, if there is a medical clinic, it will be one more way and one more choice."
Those who have money and don’t want to dig up herbal medicine can use the money to go to the medical center for medical treatment. If there are many patients at home, you can go directly to the hospital to see a doctor without borrowing it from others.
Especially for some illnesses that are beyond the scope of the problem, Tanah Lot Temple cannot solve them. It is best to go to a medical clinic for the safest treatment.
"That's okay, let's talk about renting the house." Wen Xian brought the topic back and said, "How can you rent this house at a price?"
She had only earned Zhu Qing twelve taels of silver, which was enough for rent.
Zhu Qing pondered for a moment and said: "In that case, let's calculate it as one tael of silver a year. Renting a house in a town outside the island costs about three taels of silver a year, but we are on the island and there is no such high price. So. , based on one tael of silver per year, what does Miss Wen think?"
If we want to open a medical clinic, we really cannot provide them with free accommodation. If someone in the province tries to repay a favor, he will not be able to do business in the future.
"Sure, I think it will work." Wen Xian directly took out half a tael of silver and handed it to Zhu Qing, "This is half a year's rent. Mr. Qing, keep it. Mr. Qing, does he have paper and pen? We still have to write a lease agreement. What do you think? ?”
Rather than talking nonsense in the future, it is better to write it down clearly in black and white, so as to have a basis.
I have a cold and am in pain~ I have already found my winter clothes, everyone should also pay attention to keep warm~
