Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 122

Chapter 122: No Cure
Yao Ran walked into the master bedroom and saw Huang Zhihui wiping Jia Xiang’s body with alcohol. When Huang Zhihui saw her coming, she quickly stood up and made way for Yao Ran.

Yao Ran sat on the chair, took Jia Xiang’s temperature, and checked her vital signs and pulse. After she was done, she checked the wound on Jia Xiang’s left leg. Opening the bandage, she wasn’t surprised to see the wound filled with pus and dark blood.

While cleaning the wound, Yao Ran said, “Please bring me a basin of hot water.”

When Deng Qiqi heard this, she quickly went to boil water. When she came back, Yao Ran had already given Jia Xiang an IV drip and was injecting medicine into the IV bag.

Deng Qiqi put the basin of hot water on the bedside table and said, “Elder Sister Yao Ran, this is the hot water you want.”

Yao Ran took the small towel, wet it with hot water, and wiped away the black blood and pus around Jia Xiang’s wound. After cleaning Jia Xiang’s leg, Yao Ran carefully applied antidote ointment to the wound and then wrapped it with gauze.

After finishing, Yao Ran cleaned the tools that were used with alcohol and put them back into the medicine box.

She stood up and said, “Pay attention to Jia Xiang’s temperature. If the fever doesn’t go away after two hours, call me.”

Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi nodded, “Alright.”

After returning home, Yao Ran took another shower and disinfected her body. After she was done, she left her space and went to sleep.

When she woke up, it was already ten o’clock in the evening, and Long Yu hadn’t come back yet.

Based on the amount of beef they found yesterday, Long Yu and the others would have to transport it for a long time. However, Yao Ran was not worried because she knew how strong the three of them were.

After sleeping for a long time, Yao Ran felt hungry and decided to treat herself.

Sitting in the living room, she took out a portion of spicy crayfish, a bowl of rice, a portion of Kung Pao chicken, a bowl of ma po tofu, and a portion of sweet and sour fish fillet. Accompanied by a cup of hot tea, Yao Ran felt that the fatigue on her body had disappeared instantly.

Yao Ran had just finished dinner when someone knocked on the door. Before opening the door, she sprayed an air freshener in the living room to cover the smell of the food in the air.

Seeing it was Deng Qiqi, she asked, “Qiqi, did something happen to Jia Xiang?”

Deng Qiqi shook her head, “Elder Sister Yao Ran, Grandma Quan is here to see you.”

Because their apartment is closest to the stairs, they are the first to know if someone is knocking on the metal doors.

While having her late dinner, Deng Qiqi heard the knocking sound and went to check. When she learned that Grandma Quan was looking for Yao Ran, she came to inform her.

After listening to Deng Qiqi’s words, Yao Ran thanked her and went to see Grandma Quan.

Opening the metal door, she asked, “Grandma Quan, do you need anything?”

Grandma Quan showed her a plastic bag containing two packs of instant noodles and a pack of biscuits, “The family living in Unit 1901 has a child who was diagnosed with eczema when he was an infant. The child now has rashes all over his body and is still bleeding.”

“The child’s father took the risk and went to the hospital today, but the medicine ran out, so he came back empty-handed. They wanted to bring the child over for treatment, but they don’t know you very well, so they let me come to ask you what you think.”

Grandma Quan smiled and added, “You don’t need to worry about this family. They are not bad people, and they did not join forces with Lu Hong and others to attack you. I have known them for a long time, and I can guarantee that they are a good family.”

There is no cure for eczema. It can’t be treated with acupuncture alone, and Chinese medicine is slow to take effect.

Although there is medicine in Yao Ran’s space, she will not take it out and risk people coming to her asking for treatment and medicine for free.

Seeing Yao Ran thinking, Grandma Quan stood there and waited patiently.

After thinking about it, Yao Ran said, “This disease is difficult to treat without medicine, and it cannot be cured by acupuncture alone.”

Upon hearing this, Grandma Quan asked, “Is there really no way to treat it? The child is only five years old. It makes the parents very sad and worried to see the child crying in pain.”

Yao Ran shook her head and said, “Without medicine, the only way is to improve the child’s immunity and make sure the child takes a hot bath to reduce the itch on the skin.”

Grandma Quan knew that everyone lacked supplies and didn’t force it. She just remembered Yao Ran’s instruction and said, “In that case, I will notify the child’s parents.”

Yao Ran nodded but did not take the plastic bag from Grandma Quan’s hand. Since she wasn’t helping, there was no reason for her to take their stuff.

After Grandma Quan left, Yao Ran returned home and took care of the vegetables. It’s been more than two days since she watered them, but the vegetables in the two planting rooms still look healthy.

Yao Ran watered them with lake water and muttered in a good mood, “The lake water does seem to be able to promote plant growth and health.”

After she was done, Yao Ran went to the balcony and started digging potatoes.

She grew potatoes using soil mixed with black soil from space and watered them with lake water. Coupled with her careful care and the supplement of wood element energy, the potatoes were round and plump.
