Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1138: Favors Don’t Remember Turned Into Hatred

It takes three stakes to make a fence, and it takes three men to make a hero!

It is not easy to open a decent clinic in a metropolis with a population of tens of millions. Bian Mu's comprehensive medical skills are almost catching up with famous doctors like Qi Shangqi and Zhao Xicheng, and he is only a few steps away from the level of Nie Yixiong. Naturally, he has become the soul of "Bian's Clinic" and the backbone of the small clinic.

Nurse Ye is able to do the work of three people, and she makes almost no mistakes in her work. More than half of the head nurses in Lijin's regular hospitals cannot compare to her.

Luo Zhanqi performed his duties conscientiously and studied hard. Not only had no complaints from any of the patients he had treated, but his personal reputation also rose day by day along with that of Bian Mu. Most of the Chinese medicine doctors and physiotherapy doctors in nearby hospitals and private clinics were really no match for him.

Although pharmacist Zhang Jinsi seems to be a little taciturn, he is very proficient in his personal business. He is very familiar with the Ningguo Temple medicine market, Nanshikou medicine market, Provincial Pharmaceutical Corporation... Out of gratitude for Bian Mu's rescue, Zhang Jinsi is naturally extra dedicated at work. He purchases the best goods, weighs the most optimized cost-effectiveness, and dispenses medicines in the most professional way... Zhang Jinsi's good reputation soon spread.

Bian Mu is an expert in medicinal materials. Apart from knowing very little about the market prices, he is well aware of everything going on in the medicine store. Whenever they have free time, the two of them would sit together from time to time to discuss the best solutions for the purchase and sale of medicinal materials.

The effect of the powerful combination soon emerged, and "Bian's Clinic" started to make profits in the business of medicinal materials.

Bian Mu has been a person of reason since he was young, and he talked about both big and small principles. He believed that the profits created by Zhang Jinsi had to be made public and he could not pretend to be ignorant. So when Zhang Jinsi received his first month's salary, he found that it was far beyond his psychological expectations.

Bian Mu had already communicated with Nurse Ye and Luo Zhanqi in advance. The two found that Bian Mu's calculations were too detailed and they were no match for him at all. Bian Mu calculated item by item so meticulously that it was only then that they realized that Bian Mu was actually a master of mathematics. If they really had to compete with him, ordinary smart people would not be his match at all.

Therefore, since Zhang Jinsi joined the clinic, the salary has been different every month. The three of them all understood that no one could be a match for Bian Mu in terms of skills and calculations. At the same time, considering Bian Mu's character, they did not have any suspicion at all, and naturally they would not settle their own accounts in private.

Of course, "Bian's Clinic" is thriving, and the monthly salary of the three of them will only be more, not less, than the previous month, which is also an important reason why they can live in peace with each other.

Zhang Jinsi was quite satisfied with this and devoted all his attention to the operation of the clinic and pharmacy. He went out early and came back late, so naturally his family's happiness index was rising day by day.

Zhang Jinsi's pulse is relatively normal, but some hidden dangers still exist.

"It's okay! But... some fruits may not be suitable for you, such as dragon fruit, pomegranate, and kiwi. You'd better not eat them within three years." After taking the pulse, Bian Mu suggested with a smile.

"I'll listen to you! What about other things?" "Don't we have a lot of clay pots here? When you leave later, take a few back with you. Get the best japonica rice, the most expensive new rice. I know a fishmonger. Here's her contact information. Call her later to make an appointment. Her mother is an important patient of mine. Her surname is Wu. She's a very magical old lady. The house I live in now is the old house of the Wu family. This woman is quite proficient in fresh fish. I'll write a note and you show it to her, and she will prepare the fish for you. In addition, ask her which mutton in the market has better quality. You can buy a few lamb chops there. After you go home, use a clay pot to cook some porridge. Tell your family clearly that it is medicine and they can't eat it. Today is an odd number on the lunar calendar. From now on, cook some every other day. As for dinner! Keep it simple and don't eat anything else. Until one day, I find that the pulse has changed, and then you can resume your normal dinner habits." Bian Mu explained patiently for a long time.

"I've got it in mind. Thanks!"

"We're one family, why be polite!" As he said that, Bian Mu called Wu Fenglan's daughter and briefly explained the matter of using fish in medicinal cuisine.

"We have an agreement. We are friends now! You come over every other day and only need enough for you to eat. You should pay once a month to avoid making too much and leaving it in the refrigerator and getting stale. If nothing goes wrong, you will need to take this medicinal porridge for about three months before you can see a certain effect."

"Got it! By the way, people come to us all day to ask about the price of medicine. They say that people outside are saying that our medicine is authentic, but... it's a little expensive. How about... we also open a small pharmacy? It can be considered as a convenience for ordinary people."

Upon hearing this, the expression on Bian Mu's face immediately became serious.

"That won't do! I know you have a kind heart and want to do something good for the people around here, but isn't our National Medical Clinic being renovated? We'll have to check out and leave sooner or later, right? There's a time for doing good deeds! I can't take care of it! Besides, it's too tiring for you to run two stalls by yourself, so there's no need for that! Besides... there are no outsiders here right now, so let's be honest, although the ordinary people around here don't seem to have any abilities, but as their lives are getting better and better, they have complicated thoughts in their hearts. On the surface, it seems that we hardly make any money, and we're just providing them with some convenience. It may be okay at the beginning, but later on, they stand together with the patients from those high-end communities all day long, and you can never dream of what they will think, Doctor Zhang! Think about it in the opposite direction? I'm sure you've heard of people who forget favors and turn them into enemies, right?" Bian Mu reminded him calmly, especially the last sentence, which was very powerful.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jinsi suddenly felt as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"Ouch! Look at my brain... cough! My family has only had a good life for a few days! How can I have the right to talk about doing good deeds and accumulating virtues... I am confused, I am confused!" As he spoke, Zhang Jinsi slapped his forehead a few times with a look of remorse.

"You're too kind! There are some truths that only people in our field can understand to some extent, Doctor Zhang! For now, there are only four words for us: 'maintain the status quo'! As for the rest... we'd better not get involved!"

"I see, I see! Then I'll go to the market to get some fish!"

"Be careful on the road! Mrs. Wu is quite wealthy. Her daughter probably doesn't handle the fish anymore. Her business may have grown big. Just follow her instructions and get the good fish."

"You should go to bed early too!" After saying that, Zhang Jinsi went out and rode away on his electric bike.

Looking at Zhang Jinsi's figure walking away, Bian Mu reminded himself again: Practicing medicine also has a business side to make money. You think you are being kind, but some ordinary people, especially those with medium income, may not know where the clinic's kindness is! People's hearts are as deep as the sea. With the limited energy of the four people in the clinic, it is better to do their own work properly.
