Chapter 1370: Shao Qingyuan’s ReputationChapter 1370: Shao Qingyuan’s Reputation
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong was confused. "Brother Shao?"
Seeing her like this, Madam Ge suddenly understood. "It seems that you still don’t know your Shao Qingyuan’s reputation in the capital."
Gu Yundong really did not know. She subconsciously straightened her back and hurriedly asked, "Tell me, what happened? What happened to my Brother Shao’s reputation?"
Mrs. Ge coughed lightly and took a sip of water before slowly talking about some things she had heard not long ago.
Very few people had seen Shao Qingyuan, but most people in the capital, especially the influential families, knew this name.
The cowpox vaccination method was a very great achievement. To a country where many people died every year because of smallpox, this was an invention that transcended eras. Whether it was the emperor or others who were born in this dynasty and witnessed it with their own eyes, it was a very deep mark in history.
In fact, it would have been fine if that was all. There were countless achievements in this world, and not everyone would be so famous. Most of them became famous after death and were only remembered by the world.
However, this matter had been specially promoted by the emperor. Shao Qingyuan, a country bumpkin who was not even a doctor, actually dared to personally inoculate the prince. This courage, boldness, and fearlessness of death really impressed some people.
The emperor wanted to promote this method and establish his prestige for the prince. He wanted his name to go down in history, so he secretly got someone to write a few poems to praise this matter.
As the greatest contributor, Shao Qingyuan naturally could not avoid such publicity.
Moreover, because of his identity, he attracted the resonance and admiration of many citizens.
Look, an ordinary person like him had left his name in history because of this matter. The emperor had placed him in an important position, and even the prince was grateful to him. If they worked hard, they might have such achievements in the future, right?
Then some scholars began to glorify him. Some teahouses wrote books about his deeds, and some wanted to write biographies about him for future generations to read.
Gu Yundong had sweat when she heard that. She suddenly thought of her publicity in the Xuanhe Prefecture. It was really similar.
But she really didn’t expect Shao Qingyuan’s reputation in the capital... to be like this.
Madam Ge smiled and said, "You know now, right? If others know that the shop belongs to Shao Qingyuan who invented the cowpox vaccination method, who do you think will dare to come and find trouble with you? Although your husband doesn’t have any power, he has a reputation. Whoever dares to find trouble with your shop will probably be scolded as ungrateful. There are so many aristocratic families and nobles in the capital. Most of them care about their reputation. Who would carry such a blame?"
At least, for the time being, no one would go and get into trouble.
As for when Shao Qingyuan’s deeds slowly faded in the future, would they still dare to...
Madam Ge felt that with Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong’s abilities, they would have grown up. Anyone who came to find trouble with them would be asking for trouble.
Gu Yundong could not help but want to laugh.
Should she be grateful to the emperor? If he hadn’t worked so hard to promote and add fuel to the fire, it wouldn’t have had such an effect.
She thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Brother Shao will be recorded in history. What about me? I made the white sugar. It’s very popular in the capital now. It’s very rare."
