On this day, Xiang Nan taught at Peide Medical School again.

"Master, Master Lu Zhengming has brought a blond and blue-eyed foreigner to visit you~" At this time, Defu hurried in and said.

Hearing him shout this, the students suddenly became agitated.

Although foreigners from England, France, America, Germany, Italy... have come to the capital for a long time, they have only seen it from a distance and have not had close contact. To be honest, they are still a little curious.

"Okay, stop talking about it. They're just foreigners. What's the big deal." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "Come on, come with me and watch the excitement."

When the students heard this, they were very interested and cheered, and they all followed.

…

Xiang Nan led the students to Yixiao Hall and saw Lu Zhengming standing in the lobby with a tall foreigner wearing a suit, blond hair, and blue eyes.

The patients in the lobby all avoided the foreigner when they saw him, and at the same time secretly looked at him with curious eyes, as if they were looking at magical animals.

"Mr. Xi, let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Smith from England." Lu Zhengming smiled and said, "Mr. Smith, this is the famous miracle doctor Xilailexi Langzhong."

"Master, what's his name? Is he dead? This name is too unlucky." Upon hearing this, Defu couldn't help complaining.

"Go, stop talking nonsense." Xiang Nan rolled his eyes at him, then cupped his hands, "Hello, Mr. Smith~"

"Hello, Mr. Xi." Smith extended his hand.

Xiang Nan knew it was a handshake, but he still pretended to be stunned and didn't understand.

After all, his current status is that of a doctor from the countryside, and he has never met a foreigner. It would be a bit out of line to know the handshake ceremony as soon as they meet.

"Mr. Xi, Mr. Smith wants to shake hands with you." Lu Zhengming said quickly, "You can just extend your hand."

"Oh, shake hands~ It turns out they are not in the mood to bow." Xiang Nan suddenly realized, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Smith.

A lot of people around looked at it and thought it was strange.

…

"Mr. Xi, Mr. Smith is also a doctor like you, but he is a Western doctor. He is very interested in our Chinese medicine, so he came here to take a look." Lu Zhengming explained with a smile.

"I see, welcome." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Mr. Smith, our Chinese medicine focuses on looking, hearing, asking, and feeling. Come, let me take your pulse."

"Pulse check?!" Smith didn't understand.

"Mr. Smith, please reach out, like this..." Lu Zhengming demonstrated.

Smith nodded and then stretched out his left hand.

Xiang Nan immediately took his pulse and said, "Mr. Smith, have you always felt bad about your appetite recently, sores on your mouth and tongue, and red, swollen and painful eyes?"

"Yes, yes." Smith nodded, "How did you know?"

"Haha, you are angry. It's okay. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Just go back and take it." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Telford, take the medicine. Three qian of raw licorice, skullcap, and dried ginger.

One qian each for Pinellia ternata, two qian for Coptis chinensis... Boil three bowls of water into one bowl, one each in the morning and evening. Within two days, you will be healed of your illness."

Defu immediately started to take medicine, licorice, skullcap, pinellia, coptis...

Smith was greatly surprised when he saw it, "Mr. Xi, are you going to use these grass roots and bark to treat my illness? Incredible!"

"It's okay, there is an old saying in China that what you hear is false and what you see is belief. If you don't believe it, try it yourself." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If it takes two days, the disease still won't be cured. You

Come to me and I will refund your medicine money."

Smith nodded.

…

Two days later, Lu Zhengming brought Smith here again.

"Mr. Smith, how are you? Are you recovered?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"It's unbelievable, my disease is really cured." Smith said in surprise.

Western medicine does not have the concept of getting angry. They believe that sores on the mouth and tongue are caused by viral infection. However, because anti-inflammatory drugs were not invented at that time, they could only endure it.

He didn't expect that such a disease could be cured with tree bark and grass roots, which really made him feel amazing.

"That's good, that's good." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, "Now, you admit, our bark and grass roots can cure diseases."

"Yes, admit it, admit it." Smith nodded repeatedly.

Seeing that foreigners all praised Xiang Nan's medical skills, the students, patients and even Lu Zhengming felt honored.

Over the years, the foreigners' strong ships and cannons have made the Chinese unable to fight back. They have been defeated repeatedly in battles and have been humiliated. Even the Chinese feel disgraced.

Now there is finally something better than them. Even foreigners recognize the magic of traditional Chinese medicine, which naturally makes them feel very proud.

"Mr. Xi, can you teach me your medical skills? I'm very interested." Smith added.

"Of course." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "However, Chinese medicine has a long history and is profound and profound. It has been passed down from ancient times to the present and has a history of at least five thousand years. You can imagine how deep the accumulation is.

If you want to learn, just the basics will probably take you three to five years. Are you sure you want to learn?"

"You have to learn, of course you have to learn." Smith said firmly.

Western medicine does not have anti-inflammatory technology, so many people are forced to use a red-hot iron to burn the wounds after being injured and infected. If this fails, the only option is surgery or amputation.

In comparison, Xiang Nan can cure infections with tree bark and grass roots. In his opinion, it is really amazing. If he can learn how to do it, he will undoubtedly become the greatest doctor in the Western world. Countless people would have died.

patients will be saved by him.

Therefore, let alone three to five years, he would still be willing to pay even if it was thirty to fifty years.

"Okay, if that's the case, then you can learn from me." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

Keeping Smith by his side is a good thing for him.

First, at the end of the 19th century, foreigners had a very high status in China. In the satirical novel "The Appearance of Officialdom" in the late Qing Dynasty, there is a plot where the director was so frightened that his legs trembled when he saw a foreigner. Therefore, having a foreigner by his side can help

To the effect of a fox pretending to be a tiger's power.

Secondly, recruiting foreign students is also a very honorable thing. Just like in the 1980s and 1990s, a group of famous cross talk artists were happy to recruit a few foreign disciples.

Thirdly, Mr. Smith is a British man with overseas connections, and Xiang Nan is thinking about where to go in the future. With Smith as a foreigner, he will have a way to go overseas in the future.

After all, after the Restoration, Prince Jing will soon lose power and will no longer be able to protect him. Moreover, when the Eight-Nation Allied Forces enter the capital, the war will be chaotic.

Not to mention, after the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, Yanjing became a battleground for military strategists. The king's flag changed on the city wall, and you just sang and I came on stage. By then, if there is no strong protection, then doing business here will just wait.

Just be eaten and wiped clean.
