Looking at the villagers, Li Longji knew that Brother Yi was trying to bribe them.
Of course, he succeeded.
If someone bribed them, Brother Yi would do as he said.
The villagers weren't stupid either, but they cared more about saving manpower.
If they pressed water outside in the middle of winter, their shoes and trouser legs would get wet.
With the windmill, they only needed to clear the ice in the canals. When it was time to harvest, they could grind rice everywhere.
This windmill was very beautiful, more beautiful than the windmills that looked like sails.
"If the wind doesn't blow from that direction, what should we do?" Li Chengqi looked at the windmill and felt that the sails were more useful.
"Turn, there's a shaft below. After the wind turns, people push the shaft to turn." Li Yi pointed at the base of the windmill's main shaft.
The windmill he built wasn't very big, but it was enough to move the mill.
If people could move the mill, it didn't matter if it was slower.
"It's like a revolving restaurant on Earth." Li Longji thought of something.
"Exactly." Li Yi looked up at the windmill and smiled.
It was expensive because he used iron pipes as the pillars. The transmission shaft was made of wood that was brushed with tung oil, so there was no need to worry about rain.
He had his own plans. If Zhuangzi only planted, raised, and built workshops, he would have fewer ways to earn money.
The Ba River flowed by. If he didn't make good use of it, he would be letting down such a good geographical location.
There were connecting poles of different lengths beside the windmill. After the windmill turned, the transmission had to be adjusted.
Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be used unless the wind only blew in one direction. Otherwise, it would be able to turn if it was maintained.
Li Longji looked at it and felt that it was good. After spring next year, he would set up a few in the palace.
There was also work to do in the palace, so it was comfortable to look at.
"Big Brother, Third Brother, it's past noon. Why don't we go eat?" Li Yi reminded them. They were busy just now, so time flew by.
It was already one o 'clock in the afternoon. Oh, it was the beginning.
After Li Yi mentioned it, Li Longji and Third Brother felt hungry.
The three of them went to the cafeteria and did not disturb Empress Wang. Empress Wang should be taking a nap after lunch.
Li Yi filled a bowl with chestnut chicken, scrambled eggs with garlic sprouts, fried meat with dried cucumber strips, vinegar cabbage, and a portion of rice. He didn't fill it with soup.
She was going to drink orange juice after dinner. It had to be hot.
Li Longji and Li Chengqi didn't get any staple food. They boiled a bunch of wine and wanted to drink some.
The wine was bought cheaply by Li Yi and was distilled to 50% alcohol by himself.
In order to promote blood circulation for the people who made ice cubes, they could drink a cup in the morning, a cup in the afternoon, and a cup in the evening.
At night, there was no ice, only water.
They wore boots made of thick woolen felt, cotton trousers, and cotton-padded jackets.
Li Yi did not want to treat anyone who had rheumatism. Rheumatoid arthritis was more difficult to treat than a hundred appendices.
He always considered what the farmers should pay attention to in their daily life from a medical point of view, including diet, hygiene, and working environment.
He couldn't say that he still did it even though he knew that he would get sick if he didn't do it properly. He could only treat them if they got sick.
The farmers didn't know that Dongzhu felt that it was shameful for a doctor to not take precautions before a disease appeared.
They only felt that the owner was the best in taking care of people. No matter what kind of work she did, she was the best assistant.
"Hiss ~ ~ Ha ~ ~" Li Chengqi took a sip of the 50% alcohol and made a sound like a normal drinker.
"Little Brother Yi, this wine is strong and satisfying." He frowned and praised.
"When the medicinal herbs are brought over, it will be raised to 60% alcohol. It's 50% alcohol now. If you use 60% alcohol to make medicine, it will taste bitter and sweet."
Li Yi mentioned that he was going to make medicinal wine and said, "When the time comes, different medicinal herbs will make different wines. It will be used as medicine."
"Little Brother Yi's medical skills are excellent. Only Shopkeeper Yu is unreasonable. How can he treat a patient without paying?" Li Chengqi said as he picked up a piece of fried tofu from the braised pork.
"Shopkeeper Yu, he …" Li Yi was stunned.
He put down his chopsticks and rushed out. He didn't pull out the needle, but the blood flowed back …
Why didn't anyone call him? Didn't they say that they would call him when it was almost gone?
Oh no, there was a medical accident.
When he hurried to the observation room, he saw Yu Huaide talking to Cui Liu with a smile.
"Where's the needle?" Li Yi asked directly.
"Dongzhu, I, I pulled it out. I saw you giving injections to Xi 'er and the other patients. When you pulled out the needle, it was almost gone. They asked me about it, so I pulled it out."
Cui Liu was very nervous, as if she had done something wrong.
Li Yi let out a long breath and squeezed out a smile, "Good, it's good that you pulled it out. Cui Liu, you did a good job."
He didn't care if Cui Liu had any nurse's disease, he just pulled it out.
When he was in the hospital, many patients pulled it out themselves. It was a small problem and not a big deal.
"Yes!" Cui Liu nodded happily.
Li Yi went over to check again. After confirming that there was no problem with Shopkeeper Yu, he said, "Pay the rescue fee. Three thousand cubes, don't think it's expensive."
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive." Yu Huaide shook his head. When he woke up, he saw the equipment in the emergency room.
He also heard from the servants how he survived.
At that time, Li Dongzhu spread his coat on the ground and knelt down to save him. He didn't mention any conditions. He just saved people.
In addition to last night's experience, he knew that he couldn't afford to offend Li Dongzhu.
Just based on his ability to save people, how many members of the imperial family would want to curry favor with him?
No wonder the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were guarding him. It had something to do with him.
Li Yi's smile was sincere. It was fine as long as he paid.
"This three thousand cubes, it's not just for the rescue. After two days, Shopkeeper Yu can leave again. Stay in Zhuangzi for more observation." Li Yi decided to give him a free service.
"Well said, well said. About me, my gonorrhea, can I add two thousand cubes?" Yu Huaide looked at the palace maid and said shyly.
"Yes, it's easy to cure. I'll apply it externally, take it orally, and circumcise it. It's not a serious illness."
Li Yi happily agreed. A small operation to earn two thousand cubes, no problem, no matter how much he wanted, it was more.
This' hospital 'had always been free of charge. Finally, money came!
"Li Dongzhu, I, I …" One of Yu Huaide's followers whispered.
He squatted down and used his right hand to press on the back of his head. "I have a bump here. Sometimes when I move, I feel that it's stuck. Can, can it be cured?"
Li Yi bent down and touched it. "It's simple. You have a sebaceous cyst. It's a sebaceous tumor. It's pressing on the nerves. Just cut it. The hair around it needs to be shaved first."
"Re, really? How, how much is it? "The servant asked guiltily.
"It's free. How can a doctor stare at money? You have to have the heart of a parent. "Li Yi's voice was gentle.
Yu Huaide, who was sitting on the bed, instantly widened his eyes. "…"
He suspected that Li Yi, Li Dongzhu, who was in front of him, had been possessed by something unclean. Otherwise, why would there be such a big difference between before and after?
"When can it be cured?" The servant raised his head and asked expectantly.
"After I finish my meal, I'll cut it off for you. Then, I'll give you a tetanus shot and an anti-inflammatory drug. You can leave after that. I'll give you two pieces of gauze and a small bottle of medicine to change the dressing. You can apply it yourself."
After Li Yi finished speaking, he looked at Yu Huaide. "If you're hungry, ask someone to go to the cafeteria to get food for you. Remember to prioritize light food. Don't eat too much."
After he finished speaking, he left and went back to eat.
Leaving behind the grateful servant, Cui Liu who was covering her mouth and laughing, and Yu Huaide who still suspected that Li Dongzhu's soul had swapped.
