Chapter 71: Hua Tuo And Cai Yong
Chapter 71: Hua Tuo And Cai Yong
The Caravan comes closer and closer until He Yi and Gong Du saw that Lie Fannis waiting for them at the gate so they stopped when they reached the gate greeting Lie Fan, Lie Fan wave his hand answering their greeting and walk closer to the carriage to greet Hua Tuo but when he walks to the side he saw another carriage behind the carriage that brings Hua Tuo
Lie Fan: “Greetings Master Hua Tuo, I’m Lie Fan the Inspector Of Xu Province thank you for coming here to Xiapi.”
The carriage curtain opened and a 40-year-old man’s face was shown, giving Lie Fan a smile
Hua Tuo: “Thank You for receiving me, Lord Inspector. I’m Hua Tuo and of course, I will come as Lord Inspector invites me saying that you have some sort of incurable illness.”
Lie Fan: “Haha! Let’s talk about this inside, driver please drive the carriage safely”
Hua Tuo thanked Lie Fan for his concern and Lie Fan smiled at him and then tell the driver to continue driving, Lie Fan goes back and enter his carriage alongside Jia Xu while his bodyguards get up on their horses protecting Lie Fan’s carriage.
Lie Fan told He Yi who has come back to guard Lie Fan now that they have enters the city and ask who’s carriage is following them
He Yi: “My Lord, inside the carriage, is a scholar named Cai Yong. He comes with us because he was invited by Master Hua Tuo as he was sick and Master Hua Tuo was treating him when we found Master Hua Tuo in his hometown”
Lie Fan: “Cai Yong?!”
He Yi: “Yes My Lord”
Lie Fan says thank you and told him to go back to his duty then closed his curtain, Jia Xu who was in the carriage also heard what He Yi said and was shocked as he doesn’t expect to meet Cai Yong
Jia Xu: “Do what I heard true My Lord? Cai Yong is here in Xiapi? Isn’t there a rumor that he was in hiding in the land of Wu?”
Lie Fan: “I was shocked too, I didn’t expect that Cai Yong is following Hua Tuo here to Xiapi but considering that he is sick it is normal for him to follow Hua Tuo if his sickness can only be cured by Hua Tuo”
Jia Xu: “My Lord I think this is a chance for us to have a closer relationship with him, Cai Yong has a great influence in the court and the Cai Clan behind him also has a considerable influence in Luoyang Noble Circle. Even though he lost against the eunuchs but his influence is still there.”
Lie Fan: “I agree, I wanted to meet Cai Yong and Wang Yun when I’m in Luoyang but unfortunately I only meet Wang Yun now with Cai Yong here I can build my relation with him”
While Lie Fan and Jia Xu are talking the carriage came to a halt and both of them get out of the carriage as they have arrived at the Governor’s Castle, getting down They saw Hua Tuo also get down from his carriage and a 50-year-old man getting down from the other carriage
Lie Fan as the host greeted Hua Tuo again and Hua Tuo introduced Cai Yong to him saying that Cai Yong needs treatment that’s why he follow him here to Xiapi 𝒆𝙣𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝙚𝙩
Cai Yong: “I’m Cai Yong leader of the Cai Clan, it’s an honor to meet you Lord Inspector Of Xu Province. Everyone says that Lord Inspector is valiant and cares for the people I can see now why everyone says that Haha!”
Lie Fan: “Sir Cai Yong is jesting, how can I be compared to Sir Cai Yong who has contributed much literature to the Empire”
Cai Yong: “Haha you’re slick young man, I’m sorry that I have to bother you as I have to receive treatment for Master Hua Tuo”
Lie Fan: “No no it’s okay, Sir Cai Yong can stay here as long as you need. Now then Master Jia Xu please show Sir Cai Yong his quarters while I bring Master Hua Tuo with me”
Jia Xu walks up and with a hand gesture leads Cai Yong to enter the Governor’s Castle to be shown the room he will stay in, While Lie Fan brought Hua Tuo along with him to the study room accompanied by his bodyguards
In the study, Lie Fan asks Hua Tuo to take a sit and he sits across from Hua Tuo and then takes out the medicine formulae he buys before from his inventory from his cabinet
Hua Tuo: “Now then why don’t Lord Inspector tell me the symptoms that you feel for me to do a diagnosis.”
Lie Fan: “I’m sorry Master Hua Tuo the truth is I’m not sick and have other intentions of inviting you here.”
Hua Tuo: “What?! Lord Inspector, please don’t joke as my time is precious to cure sickness”
Lie Fan: “I’m not joking Master Hua Tuo, I invited your here because I wanted to work with you”
Hua Tuo: “Work with me? I’m sorry but I don’t serve officials, my talent is to be used for all kinds of people that needed treatment”
Lie Fan: “No no it’s not like that Master Hua Tuo, it’s more of a partnership between us, and the reason I wanted to do that is that I receive this from a hermit in my hometown Huai’an before which can be proven useful in the medical field”
After Lie Fan finish saying that he takes out the medicine formulae and in down on the table showing them to Hua Tuo for him to read
Hua Tu who received the formulae began to read them and when he read about penicillin, Morphine, aspirin, and curing common cold symptoms Hua Tu was shocked as this can greatly help him in treating many patients
Hua Tuo: “Lord Inspector where do you meet the hermits that give you this, we need to find that man as he has a brilliant mind in medicine!”
Lie Fan: “I don’t know where he is now, when he gave me this he ask for a boat and then he leave going towards the open seas”
Hua Tuo: “*sigh* another great mind is gone but his contribution is immeasurable, with this alone he has breakthrough many medical questions in years!”
Lie Fan: “I’m willing to give Master Hua Tuo all of this for free in exchange for Master Hua Tuo to stay in Xiapi and opening a hospital here in partnership with my administration”
Hua Tuo stay silent and began to contemplate, what Lie Fan just gave is very beneficial for curing his patients, and if they managed to make this thing come true, especially this penicillin at the same time he can feels that his freedom will be restricted but exchange for all of this not bad
Lie Fan sees that Hua Tuo is thinking about his choices and he stayed silent not influencing him in any sort of way as he knew only with those Hua Tuo can be convinced to stay
After a couple of minutes, Hua Tuo gets his head up and sees face to face with Lie Fan
Hua Tuo: “Lord Inspector is very crafty, You know that I will choose to stay now with these and cooperate with Lord Inspector”
Lie Fan: “Ahaha then I welcome Master Hua Tuo, you can rest easy that your family will be brought here escorted by my most trusted men. Now why don’t we talk about the kind of hospital we will make”
Hua Tuo: “Then I thank My Lord for your consideration, let’s just make the hospital normally made but bigger than before, as long as it has a big room and enough for me to treat patients.”
Lie Fan: “While it’s good to be big but I don’t want it to be made normally, I wanted the hospital to stay very clean and the workers and doctors there need to have special clothes when working”
Hua Tuo: “I agree with the statement that the hospital has to be clean, but why do the workers, doctors, and I have to wear special clothes?”
Lie Fan: “Of Course to prevent the sickness from being transmitted outside the Hospital”
Hua Tuo: “Oh? Why does Lord Inspector think like that, as long as our face is covered everything should be fine”
Lie Fan: “*Ahem* no Master Hua Tuo, the truth is the hermit left me one more paper that caught my interest and when Master Hua Tuo agrees to stay I will show it to you”
Lie Fan takes out a paper from his system through a cabinet and inside it was a theory about Germ and bacterial which is the main cause of contagious disease not foul odor or miasma
Hua Tuo reading the paper was immediately hooked by this theory and when he read it he began to believe that the theory is true as the symptoms and how important is it to stay clean and sterile with every tool in the hospital especially one used for surgery
Hua Tuo was fascinated by this and Immediately agree with Lie Fan’s proposal, he gave Lie Fan full authority on how the hospital will be made while he will experiment with making medicine and testing this theory
Lie Fan seeing that was happy as he got the Father of Medicine at his side and with his knowledge of modern medicine in the Book of Knowledge everyone’s livelihood will raise several times
Lie Fan: “Wait, Master Hua Tuo, before you leave may I ask something?”
Hua Tuo: “Of Course, what is it, My Lord?”
Lie Fan: “Do you know Master Zhang Zhongjing?”
Hua Tuo: “Zhang Zhongjing? Of course, I know that old man is the only person I respect and befriended in the medical field. Why, does My Lord also interested in inviting that old man? If so maybe I can help as that Man is very good at medical theory than I do”
