Chapter 359: Familiar Beginning, Familiar Chapter

Lu Cheng is very familiar with the profession of barefoot doctor. After all, he made his career with this.

Now that he has returned to the Loess Plateau and is doing his old business again, Lu Cheng feels a little emotional.

After returning to the village, Lu Cheng went to see the village party secretary Bai Guixing again: "Secretary Bai, our village is too far from the commune, and it is not convenient for the villagers to see a doctor. It just so happens that I know some medical skills, and I can treat fever, colds, and diarrhea. Today at the commune, I also talked to the doctor at the health center. I plan to buy some medicines regularly and set up a clinic in the village to facilitate the villagers to see a doctor. What do you think?"

"Can you really treat people?"

"Of course, if I didn't have the skills, I wouldn't dare to make such a boast."

"Well, what do you want? Just tell me."

"I don't have any requirements for now. Just that if a villager comes to me for medical treatment and I can't go to work in the fields, the team can't deduct my work points."

"No problem. As long as you can cure the villagers' illnesses, I'll give you full work points. How about this, when I go to work tomorrow, I'll tell the captains of each brigade to notify them to come to you for treatment in the future."

"No problem. Secretary Bai, how many households are there in our village? How many people are there? Give me a rough estimate, and I'll have an idea. There shouldn't be much work in the fields recently, so I'll take this opportunity to take a look at the health conditions of the villagers. I'll keep an eye on those with chronic diseases or pregnant women at home."

"You are so thoughtful. Our Baidian Village..."

Lu Cheng was naturally quite familiar with something he had done once.

Although this place is not Shuangshui Village, it also makes Lu Cheng feel familiar and intimate. Since he has come to this village, he must do something for this village so that it will not be in vain.

By the time Lu Cheng returned to the educated youth point, it was already evening.

During the day today, the educated youth also walked around the village and familiarized themselves with the local situation.

At this time, a group of people were sitting together, discussing everything here.

Today, the novelty of this group of educated youth has not yet worn off, especially those from Yanjing, who feel everything is new to them.

After Lu Cheng sat down, Qin Ling and Li Lijuan talked about Lu Cheng's performance in the commune health center today, which surprised everyone.

In this cave where there is no electricity yet, people have no entertainment at night. Even reading by kerosene lamp is a bit straining on the eyes, so they can only sit together and chat.

Two girls even brought wool with them and were skillfully knitting sweaters and scarves while chatting there.

The next morning, as the production team's bell rang, the villagers in the village began to go to work.

It was the middle of winter and there was not much farm work to be done in the fields.

Moreover, these educated youth had just arrived in the village and had basically never done farm work, nor did they know how to do it.

After the work started in the village, Lu Cheng and the educated youth just followed the production team and went to the fields to look around and walk around.

Most of the land here is sloping, and some places are so steep that livestock cannot cultivate it. The only way to do it is by hand: turning the soil, applying fertilizer, etc.

Before they even started working, the girls from Yanjing were already exhausted after just walking around the hills of different sizes for a few times.

Those girls from Shaanxi Province are better.

Finally, the village party secretary Bai Guixing allocated a piece of land near the cliff behind the village to the educated youth.

When they arrived at the cliff, they saw a group of educated youth busy at work on the opposite hillside.

The clothes of the villagers here are all tattered, while the clothes of the educated youth are relatively clean. Once you compare them, it is easy to tell which are the educated youth from the city and which are the villagers.

Of course, after a year or so, those educated youth from the city have adapted to the local environment, gradually integrated into the countryside, and will become more like villagers.

The cliffs on both sides were 40 to 50 meters apart. Lu Cheng saw Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong and others on the opposite side at a glance. He patted Li Kuiyong beside him and pointed to the opposite side: "See, isn't that Zhong Yuemin on the opposite side?"

Li Kuiyong walked to the cliff, put his hands on the awning, looked carefully, and then shouted: "Zhong Yuemin! I am Li Kuiyong."

Zhong Yuemin on the other side heard the voice and immediately looked over here, and quickly responded: "Kui Yong, you guys are here too? Let's go find you to play."

"This place is quite far away. It takes more than 30 miles to get here. I'm afraid it's too late to get there today. Let's wait for two days."

It is very rare to meet acquaintances, especially good friends, in this place.

Afterwards, Zhong Yuemin and Li Kuiyong began to talk across the deep ditch below.

"Kui Yong, there are 10 people in our educated youth camp, 7 men and 3 women. There are more wolves than meat. What's the situation in your camp?"

"We also have 10 people here, but there are 7 women and 3 men, so there are more meat than wolves."

"That's great. It's a good opportunity for our two educated youth sites to combine forces."

The two sides chatted and laughed for a while and didn't leave until lunchtime.

It was just after lunch in the afternoon. There was no work to do in the fields. It was still a little cold outside. The educated youth were all sitting in the house chatting when they heard a voice outside: "Is the educated youth surnamed Lu at home?"

When Lu Cheng heard the sound, he walked out of the house and saw a farmer in his thirties coming into the yard.

Lu Cheng just glanced at the other person and said, "From the look of your face, I think you must have had an upset stomach these past two days. You've been having diarrhea and stomachache since today. Do you want to come over to me to treat you?"

The man was a little surprised when he heard this: "I haven't even opened my mouth yet, how do you know this?"

"Whether you are sick or not, I can tell with just one look. Come, sit inside, I'll prescribe some medicine for you, and you'll be fine in two days."

"Hey, good."

Lu Cheng turned back to the house, unscrewing several medicine bottles to prepare medicine, while advising: "Looking at your condition, it should be because you ate cold steamed bread last night and didn't cover yourself with the quilt properly at night, which caused your spleen and stomach to catch a cold. I'll pack two packets of medicine for you, take one packet today and one packet tomorrow, and you'll be fine. Qin Ling, please get this big brother a cup of hot water."

"okay."

Soon, Lu Cheng skillfully packed two packets of medicine and handed them to the big brother.

The elder brother took the medicine and took out a small cloth bag from his arms: "Hey, how much is it?"

"The cost of this medicine is only eight cents, so just give me eight cents. I treat the villagers, and the brigade gives me work points, so I don't have to pay for the consultation."

"Okay, thank you, Doctor Lu."

"You're welcome."

The man took the hot water handed over by Qin Ling, drank two sips, took a packet of medicine directly, put down 8 cents, and turned away.

Although Secretary Bai had informed the villagers in the morning that there was an educated youth who could treat patients, everyone was still somewhat skeptical about the youth's ability.

It just so happened that this brother had a stomach upset, which was not a big deal, so he thought of coming over to see if there were any educated youth who could treat illnesses.

As a result, not long after the man finished taking the medicine and returned home, his stomachache stopped and he was completely cured the next day. He immediately started to promote Lu Cheng, saying how great Lu Cheng's medical skills were, how he could tell what disease a person had at a glance, and that his medicine could cure the disease, and most importantly, it was cheap.

Once there is the first patient, there will naturally be a second and a third.

Two days later, two more patients came to see him. Lu Cheng treated them skillfully and prescribed medicines, quickly gaining a good reputation...
