It is said that saving the poor does not save the poor. See how the imperial doctor Ye treated the "poor disease" for the poor in Qing Dynasty.
In the Qing Dynasty, due to Ye's superb medical skills, there was an endless stream of patients seeking medical treatment in front of the door. Everyone said that all incurable diseases were cured by hand when they arrived at him. One day, Ye made a house call in a sedan chair. He didn't go far when he saw a farmer waiting by the roadside. As soon as he saw it, he stopped the sedan chair and asked him to treat himself. When Ye got out of the sedan chair, he saw that the farmer was sallow and emaciated and ragged, so he told him to stretch out his hand to feel his pulse. But when he finished feeling his pulse, he felt that his six pulses were in harmony and there seemed to be nothing wrong with him, so he asked the humanitarian, "What's wrong with you?" "The farmer said," I heard that you are a famous doctor, no matter what disease, as long as you look at it, you can't tell. To tell the truth, the villain's illness is quite strange. This is a disease of poverty. I wonder if you can cure it? " Ye Shi Tian didn't understand until I heard that. He bowed his head and thought for a while, then smiled and said to him, "What you said is indeed a disease, but it is not difficult to cure it. It's just that I have something to do now Why don't you come to my house at night and I'll write you a prescription to make sure you get better after eating? " As soon as the farmer heard the joy, he left at once. When the sun went down, the farmer came to Ye Fu to inquire. Ye wrote a prescription and handed it to him. The farmer opened the prescription and saw three big characters on it: olive pit. At that time, many olives were planted in the city, and there were olive pits everywhere. The villagers are confused about this prescription. Is this olive nuclear energy used to cure poverty? I was about to ask this recipe how to eat it again, but I heard Ye say to him, "Go to the city tomorrow and pick as many olive stones as possible, then go home and plant them, and let me know as soon as they sprout." The next day, the farmer did as planned. Before long, the olives he planted sprouted and blossomed. The farmer hurried to tell Ye. Hearing this, Ye said to him, "From now on, if someone comes to buy olive seedlings, they must sell them to him at a high price. Never sell it cheaply. Remember. " The farmer nodded, too. From then on, all prescriptions of Ye must be based on olive seedlings. At this time, only the farmer in the city had olive seedlings, so many patients rushed to buy them. After a few days, olive seedlings became more and more scarce, but buyers kept coming, and the price was naturally several times higher. When all the olive seedlings were sold out, Ye withdrew the medicine and the farmer made a fortune. Before long, the farmer prepared a generous gift to thank him. Ye saw it and asked, "How can you cure your poverty?" The farmer said to him with a grateful face, "It's all because of you. The word' get rid of the disease at hand' is really worthy of the name. " Ye's poverty alleviation is unique and can be called precise poverty alleviation! (Liu Shandong Yongjia)
