"This is medicine. If he has a fever, boil it. Boil three bowls of water into one bowl of water and give it to him to drink. If he still has a fever after drinking it, boil the residue again and give it to him to drink.

During this period, you can also wipe his body with warm water, but avoid his wounds. As long as the fever does not continue, there is no big problem. But if the fever does not go down, you should bring someone to see me.

And her thighs..."

"Doctor, can we just stay here?"

Before Lin Shiyu finished speaking, the woman didn't even bother to cover her mouth and interrupted her to ask.

Lin Shiyu was interrupted, but she still finished her own explanation before answering her question:

"You can stay here if you want, but I won't be guarding you. You still need to take care of the things that need attention."

"It's fine to be here, thank you, doctor."

When the woman heard that she could stay here, she hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

She felt that her husband might die at any time given his current condition, and only being close to a doctor could give her a sense of security.

Although the doctor couldn't be there, if something really happened and he was close by, she could just shout and the doctor would always come out in time to check.

"Bring him a blanket, he might get cold if he's injured."

The weather is extremely hot now, but that is only for people who are in good health.

For this kind of patient, he will only feel cold.

After Lin Shiyu finished her instructions, she moved on to the next patient.

The previous patient took up too much of her energy, so this time she specifically picked a patient who didn't look as seriously ill.

......

Busy times pass quickly.

If Lin Boyu hadn't forced her to rest and eat, Lin Shiyu wouldn't have noticed that time had suddenly come to evening.

After seeing the last patient, she breathed a sigh of relief and only then did she feel tired.

But today's condition is better than yesterday. At least I didn't fall asleep, and I still have some energy to listen to Lin Anji.

"The price of medicine has gone up so much, and I've spent most of the money you gave me."

Lin Anji took out a few remaining copper coins from his sleeve and looked at Lin Shiyu nervously.

Originally, he didn't want to buy the medicine when he heard it was so expensive, but a doctor who was familiar with him advised him that if he didn't buy it now, he might not be able to buy it in the future.

Lin Anji thought about it again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and bought them all.

"There's still money left. It seems the price of medicinal materials hasn't risen too much."

With more natural disasters, the price of medicinal materials will inevitably rise. This is inevitable. She paid double the previous price. Looking at the current situation, the market is still controllable for the time being.

Seeing that Lin Shiyu was not angry, Lin Anji breathed a sigh of relief and echoed:

"Compared to food, the price of medicinal herbs is not outrageous. Food is already sold for 100 coins per pound!"

When Lin Anji first asked about the price, he was shocked by it.

At that time, the first thing he thought of was the pile of grain hidden in his home, thinking that if they took them all out and sold them, they would become rich overnight.

Blue brick and tile houses, that’s not just a dream.

Lin Shiyu was also shocked by the price.

Food is the foundation of the people. The price is so outrageous. If the court does not intervene to control it, how far is it from chaos?

“Are there many places affected by the disaster?”

Lin Anji looked at Lin Shiyu in surprise, and he was going to talk about this matter next.

In order to find out the news, he spent money to stay in an expensive inn for the first time and sat there for an entire afternoon.

"The typhoon affected almost all of our city. As for places further away, there has been no news since the time was too short."

Communication here relies on walking, and only very few people have mounts, so the spread of news will be slow.

"The biggest impact is still the locust plague. I heard that food all over the country has been destroyed. And I heard that many places only grow rice or wheat once a year, unlike us who grow it twice a year..."

Lin Anji had never traveled far and hadn't read many books, so he really didn't know that places outside were different from them and only grew food for one quarter a year.

After their food is eaten by locusts, they can at least look forward to the next season's harvest, but they only look forward to it once a year.

Although it is likely that they will not have much to earn this quarter.

Lin Shiyu frowned: "Is it that serious?"

"That's right." Lin Anji nodded and continued, "I heard that food in those places is more expensive than here. Many merchants want to buy food from us and transport it there to buy it."

"Don't have such petty thoughts." Lin Shiyu warned him.

"of course not."

Lin Anji's smile was a little forced. At first he really wanted to buy it.

Who doesn't want to get rich overnight? But I have a wife and children at home...

"That's the best." Lin Shiyu looked him in the eyes seriously: "As long as you are alive, you will have the chance to get whatever you want in the future."

"Yes."

"Hide the food in your house and keep your mouth shut. The next few months may not be peaceful."

Lin Anji's body trembled, and he responded, "Yes."

.......

After Lin Anji left, Lin Shiyu sat in a chair and pondered for a long time.

Merchants are the most well-informed. Their large-scale purchase of grain shows how huge the interests are, and also shows that the consequences of these two natural disasters are very serious.

Even if the situation is not serious, their behavior will aggravate the consequences.

Regardless, they still have to prepare for the worst-case scenario.

She pressed her swollen head and thought.

"Just lie down if you're tired. What are you sitting here for?"

As soon as Lin Anbo came in, he saw her rubbing her head. Without thinking, he squatted in front of her, wanting her to get up and let him carry her back to rest.

Lin Shiyu stared at the thin back, pondered for a while, and climbed up decisively.

……

She was half asleep when she was woken up by Liu.

The patients who came today did not go back and slept on the floor outside the hospital.

"There's something wrong with a patient, go check it out."

Lin Shiyu put on her clothes and shoes, endured the sleepiness, and walked out quickly.

"what happened?"

"I was confused because of the fever. I kept talking nonsense."

That was the first patient of the morning, and it was the patient's wife who answered the phone.

When she answered, she kept her head down and didn't dare to look directly at Lin Shiyu.

When Lin Shiyu saw her like this, she knew that she didn't do what she said.

She squatted down and touched the man's forehead.

It’s terribly hot…

"Mom, bring me the jar of wine from my room."

Liu walked quickly into the house and brought it to her.

"Wipe it for him, don't touch the wound."

The woman took it and wiped his body carefully. Perhaps because of guilt, she wiped it very carefully.

The people around were woken up by them, and now they gathered together, holding homemade torches to bring her a little light.
