Chapter 10 Cupping Master
Haisheng came back from work on the set and cupping four rheumatoid patients at the beating hall. No one had the courage to try pain treatments. It was already late and the countryside farmers and fishermen went home one after another.
Neighbors gathered around the slum hall and talked about it. They were curious about what Haisheng did in the past. They also asked him if he would have any other difficult and complicated diseases?
Haisheng said that he was not a Chinese medicine doctor and did not know much. He could cure dysfunction and sprains and rheumatism and cold diseases because he was a martial arts practitioner. It was common for him to get injured. He had to do it frequently and had to do it himself. After a long illness, he became a medical practitioner and had no idea about other diseases.
Neighbors are half-believing and half-doubted. Most people choose to believe that it is amazing to see Haisheng’s face, with exquisite pot skills and superb martial arts skills. If you still have other skills, then will you still be a human?
After all, people have limited energy and are unlikely to master too many techniques, and they are so proficient in each item.
When he learned that Haisheng would not cure other diseases, his operation fee was very high, so he dispersed in groups of three or three. The remaining ones were left in the store for Tian Xing to cup, and his operation fee was only three yuan per day. Among his fellow Sanlifang, it was the cheapest one.
Tian Xing relied on the cheap price to maintain his livelihood in the slums. Speaking of which, he was actually a quack doctor. His father was a master of traditional Chinese medicine. The store and backyard were all purchased by his father, and it was decayed in his hands.
When his father was alive, Tian Xing lived a good life for several years and was ignorant. He was ignorant and was in trouble all day long. His father was gone, inheriting the family business but not medical skills. He regained his family and opened a store for more than ten years before he could only learn some basics and live a life.
The son follows his temper, and is ignorant of his skills and is involved in the club. He dies and fights with the gang. The daughter-in-law runs away with others, leaving behind the orphan Tian Xiaoyu, and the grandfather and grandson depend on each other for their own lives.
Locals in Sanlifang know that Tian Xing is a quack doctor, but his medical expenses are the cheapest among his peers. Those who have no money or those who like to pick up cheap will come to him to see a doctor. Tonight, due to the influence of Haisheng, there was a wave of customers, which made Tian Xing happy.
Tian Xiaoyu was also happy. After Haisheng arrived at her house, he would have meat to eat every day! Tonight, he received some eggs and poultry. The fishermen couldn't pay the medical expenses and filled them with poultry eggs.
I picked some ingredients and made a hearty dinner. A few egg custards, a pot of chicken soup, a drunk duck, and a few seasonal vegetables.
Chef Haisheng, Xiaoyu's helper, and Li Wenchao's fireworks were all divided, but they didn't take much time. The food was ready and the wine was full, but Tian Xing was not on the table for a long time and worked hard in the front hall to treat the patients. He asked Haisheng and the others to eat first, and they didn't have to worry about him.
He said he didn't care, but he couldn't ignore it, leaving him a meal. After Haisheng finished the meal, he went to take care of the patient, Li Wenchao helped.
Tian Xing was happy to drink a few more cups today. He was not cured by health. As a result, he got drunk and couldn't see a doctor. He fell on the table and fell asleep. Xiaoyu called Haisheng before he brought him into the room to sleep.
It was still early, and the patients had not yet dissipated and they had to be treated! Haisheng had to take action. Fortunately, he was a skilled man who used cupping to treat the striking and spraining in minutes. After a while, the customer in the store was solved, thinking that it would be finished like this, so he went back to the backyard to wash.
When he came to the front hall again, it was crowded with people, all of whom were neighbors coming to hear the news, and people from nearby countryside were also lit up horse lanterns.
I heard that the cupping master Haisheng took action, and it was still the same price. They all came to see the situation, but the result was really. So I begged Haisheng to show them that he didn't need to use his unique skills, just use ordinary techniques. No matter how bad the master was, he would be three points! At least he was much better than that of Tian Xing, and he was still the price of a quack doctor. If you don't seize the opportunity to find the master, wouldn't it be a loss for him?
There was no reason for the guests to come to the door, but Haisheng refused everyone and showed them all. As a result, there were too many customers and the backyard was full of people, but the bench was limited. Many people sat on the ground with grass. The patients discussed with each other the medical skills of the young doctor Hai.
Time flies, and it is almost early morning. Haisheng no longer accepts customers and asks those who are queuing up to come again tomorrow. Most of them are not emergency departments, but they are here to take advantage of the situation, so there is no rush.
In the early morning, the guest finished. Tian Xiaoyu was settled for a while and shared the money. She received the money tonight and got the hand cramps. She had never seen so much money before.
Haisheng was busy treating his illness, and he didn't know the price, so Xiaoyu understood, so she asked her to charge.
Li Wenchao also had a share. There were many customers who cupped tonight, so the cupping was not enough. He ran around and arranged to find it. The difference was huge, so he summoned his family and relatives to make bamboo cups. He made hundreds of them at a rapid speed, which met the requirements.
I didn't expect any reward because the thing was worthless. But Haisheng wanted to give it to him, but he said he would not let Li Wenchao work in vain, and finally got more than 60 yuan and a chicken.
The harvest was full, but Li Wenchao returned home but had no money. He bought a few bottles of roast goose and stewed the chicken to entertain his family and relatives. After eating it, he put it in 30 yuan and everyone was happy.
Early the next morning, Li Wenchao came to Haisheng happily and asked him if he wanted to make a bamboo tube. However, he was scolded and said that he had done so much and he couldn't use up what he left last night! He also took him to the set to continue to be an extra.
This made Li Wenchao not understand. With Haisheng's skills, he could earn hundreds of dollars a day by cupping. Why do he have to do more than ten yuan? The time is long enough, eight or nine hours a day.
Haisheng explained that his treatment technique is similar to that of other traditional Chinese medicine doctors, and no one will look for him after this gust of wind. The pain therapy is that few people can bear it by scraping the bones and the business will not last long. Instead of waiting for customers to come, it is better to find a long-term job.
After hearing this, Li Wenchao regretted that it was not easy to make money in every industry. When he arrived at the set, Haisheng drove to the temporary actor gathering point, but Li Wenchao said it was no longer necessary. They were now following Brother Kun and went to find him directly.
After many twists and turns, he finally found Brother Kun. He was training people, and he scolded him when he saw Haisheng and the other two. Speaking of which, Brother Kun is also an extra actor commonly known as the supporting actor.
I worked on the set for a long time and talked to several deputy directors, so I asked him to be a stopper, the leader of the extras. He also had to play the show and manage temporary workers. He could take part in the filial piety and was considered a small leader on the set, the lowest-level one, and was often called around.
He was naturally unhappy when he was angry. The temporary worker was the target of his venting. No matter whether it was right or not, he would be scolded if he hit the gun.
It is easy to be a supporting role, but it is not easy to be a good person. The lowest-level one is that the corpse is not very demanding. Most newcomers do this, but this is a minority after all.
Most of the time, you need to fight against the main and supporting roles before you are killed. It is more popular to be handsome and have a martial arts foundation.
