Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1476: We must take the initiative in major events

To this day, San Qiangzi has kept his mouth shut. He has never mentioned a word about what kind of accident Sima Kui encountered that left him almost paralyzed in the "Sunset Red" nursing home.

Since San Qiangzi didn't say anything, it was naturally difficult for Bian Mu to find out.

Although he has been feeling unwell recently, Guan Yuelin is actually living a pretty happy life. He is lucky to have a virtuous wife. Thanks to Bian Mu's timely discovery and prompt treatment, Guan Yuelin has finally gotten through another dangerous period.

The clinic opened by Sima Kui appears to be deserted on the surface, but in fact... according to Lao Hou, Sima Kui makes a lot of money every day.

Lao Hou secretly discovered that Sima Kui, who was obviously a serious general practitioner, shrank his head and became a "type doctor". Every day, he casually saw a dozen patients who he thought he was sure to treat, and he would politely decline other more troublesome patients. He lived a leisurely and carefree life.

Lao Hou said that although Sima Kui's cure rate was not as good as Bian Mu's, when compared with colleagues in other clinics in the surrounding area, Sima Kui's cure rate had already been far ahead without anyone noticing.

Which common people are confused?! They will go to any doctor who can treat the disease! For some diseases, it is generally cheaper to go to Sima Kui for treatment. As time goes by, Sima Kui's reputation spreads in the surrounding areas without making a fuss.

Old Hou has seen this several times with his own eyes. Unlike Bian Mu who charged cautiously, Sima Kui would also accept patients with any difficult and complicated diseases, but... he would charge by "negotiating". After the diagnosis was confirmed, Sima Kui would "bargain" with the patients and their families within the billing range set by the relevant departments. In this respect, Bian Mu really couldn't compare with him.

Several friends, including Lao Hou, secretly told Bian Mu that Sima Kui actually had a family and children, a son and a daughter, and that they heard that the two children had also started families. Their qualifications were not that of ordinary people, and they could not save much money after working hard for a year. There was no other way, so Sima Kui had to subsidize them with money, openly or secretly.

As long as it did not violate any rules or laws, and he followed the upper limit of the billing standards, if he encountered patients who had sought medical treatment everywhere without any effect, he would bargain directly with the doctors. If they could not reach an agreement in the end, Sima Kui would often choose to refuse to treat the patient; in most cases, he could still reach an agreement.

Speaking of which, Sima Kui is suspected of doing business in a "package" manner.

In addition, Sima Kui is an expert in preparing Chinese patent medicines, and all the procedures are complete. The only thing is that compared with other colleagues, his price is indeed higher.

Fortunately, Sima Kui was really capable, and he was always very cautious about his bottom line for charging. From time to time, there were always people coming to him for medical treatment and medicine. In a big city with a population of nearly 20 million, God finally gave Sima Kui a bowl of rice.

However... one thing is certain, Sima Kui has been living a stable life since he started practicing medicine on the street.

……

The cycle of changing times seems to be getting shorter and shorter. He gets up from the bed early in the morning with sleepy eyes, and a busy day passes by in the blink of an eye. Bian Mu wishes a day could last for 48 hours. No one has the heart to pursue the past, so how can he have the time to worry about those things?

It has been almost a year now, and we have lived in peace with each other. We have already seen off Dalong in his prime...

Crispy duck box, squirrel salmon, drunken dragon robe, first-class tofu, mandarin duck five-treasure stew... With Bian Mu's help, San Qiangzi cooked a lot of delicious dishes.

The high-quality northern famous liquor, which costs nearly five thousand yuan a bottle, was simmered in a small casserole. The whole room was filled with the aroma of the liquor. When one smelled it, even a clear-minded and focused person like Bian Mu would feel a little craving for it.

The four of them drank and chatted. Liang Xiangyin had been seriously injured several times, so he naturally didn't dare to drink too much. However, it was a rare occasion for the four of them to have a meal together, so he drank a few more glasses without realizing it.

Sima Kui has always been polite to his second senior brother in front of him, and the old-fashioned courtesy is easy to understand. If it weren't for the careful care of the Liang father and son, Sima Kui would definitely not have survived the long and endless desperate days in the "Sunset Red" nursing home that were like "spiritual purgatory".

Sima Kui smiled and turned his second brother's wine glass upside down on the table. He tried to persuade him with some kind words, and Liang Xiangyin smiled and stopped drinking.

"Lei Xiaoxuan didn't get any advantage from you, did he?" Liang Xiangyin suddenly asked.

Bian Mu came to visit Liang Xiangyin tonight to discuss a few things, including Lei Xiaoxuan's mess. As for what Zhao Xicheng had to do with it, there was no evidence at the moment, so Bian Mu couldn't make a blind guess.

however……

As soon as he entered the door, he ran into Sima Kui. Bian Mu thought that it was better not to disturb this person about some things. If he had any special ideas... He is too old. No matter how strong Lei Xiaoxuan's background is, Sima Kui is not afraid of him.

In the past two years, it is best for everyone to seek stability and not to look for trouble every day.

Besides, why did Liang Xiangyin, who was old and sick, insist on coming out of retirement? ! He was just thinking about getting some money for San Qiangzi so that his beloved son could start a family in Lijin City. Where did the money come from? ! After many twists and turns, it all came down to the special Chinese medicine!

Lei Xueming and his senior brother should have left Lijin City by now. With the abilities of Liang Xiangyin and Sima Kui, they are sure to know the whereabouts of the two brothers. Liang Xiangyin and Sima Kui are very scheming and naturally will not easily reveal a word to Bian Mu about anything they are not sure of.

Didn't Sima Kui have a family too? His children were incompetent, so he had to make a lot of money for his family. He must have thought about the special Chinese patent medicine thousands of times.

however……

Be it Brother Lei Xueming, or Huang Boxi, or even Brother Liang Xiangyin and Sima Kui, even if they finally got all the secret recipes left by Situ Jianqing, would it be useful? !
Enough!

There is nothing else to say. Contemporary Chinese medicine pharmacy and Western medicine manufacturing technology have already developed by leaps and bounds. In the past two years, some artificial intelligence technologies have been introduced. All of them have shown their abilities. To what extent have special-effect Chinese patent medicines developed? Where will the future technological breakthroughs lie? How can we concentrate manpower, material resources, and technology... to make a substantial breakthrough at some point? It is obvious that those people are no longer able to do so.

Truly smart people are often the wisest. Everyone has long agreed in their hearts that, at the moment, only Bian Mu has the potential to achieve a slight technological leap, while others do not see any hope at all for the time being.

If he mentioned Lei Xiaoxuan's bad things in front of Sima Kui, with Sima Kui's cleverness, he could bring the conversation to the "deep waters" in just a few words, and to be honest, Bian Mu really had no intention of discussing that matter with him, so he would try his best to avoid it if he could.

Everyone has some real skills in their hands. It would be better to avoid creating confrontation artificially and for everyone to walk their own path.

As soon as Liang Xiangyin started talking, Bian Mu was thinking that he had to control the basic direction of today's discussion. There was an important matter ahead, so he couldn't be polite!
With a smile, Bian Mu slowly drank the remaining wine in the glass and did not rush to answer Liang Xiangyin's question.
