Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1908: Two of the three Qi were interrupted.

Sales of "Detoxifying Plaster" gradually increased, and orders from other places kept pouring into "Hongyang" Pharmaceutical Company. An Delin asked Bian Mu to prepare to expand production capacity to make some money. Bian Mu replied that production should be done in batches, there was no rush, and the quality of the new drug must be absolutely guaranteed.

Still a little worried afterward, Bian Mu gave the pharmaceutical farmers Lao Pei, San Qiangzi, and "Knife Face" a lot of overtime pay, instructing them to go to the pharmaceutical factory whenever they had free time to keep an eye on things and to strictly control the quality.

Sanqiangzi and "Knife Face" are both people who can be tough on someone anytime, anywhere, so Bian Mu trusts them quite a bit.

……

Whenever he had free time, Bian Mu kept a close eye on the stock market. The worse the market was, the more excited he became. He was always calculating and analyzing with his trading chips in hand. As the market gradually improved and the trading volume steadily increased, Bian Mu's interest was piqued again.

After much deliberation, Bian Mu selected three agricultural stocks. If the opportunity arises, he plans to use the profits from the new drug he recently received to buy one of them. He needs to get in before the big market rally ends.

The nanny, surnamed Zhu, would contact Bian Mu from time to time, saying that she was now working as a general laborer at an online broadcasting company, earning seven or eight thousand yuan a month. She thought that the job was not a long-term solution and claimed that Bian Mu was now a famous doctor with many connections. She would seize any opportunity to introduce her to a more stable and better job.

Bian Mu only discussed stocks with her, and remained vague about finding her a job.

When the nanny, surnamed Zhu, heard over the phone that Bian Mu was suddenly planning to buy agricultural stocks at rock-bottom prices, she felt it was a bit far-fetched and thought that Bian Mu had probably miscalculated this time.

Bian Mu discussed it with her several times and realized that the nanny surnamed Zhu didn't care about agricultural topics at all, so he gradually called her less often.

Bian Mu himself was convinced that agricultural stocks were bound to be a hit!
……

That noon, Bian Mu was getting water in a corner of the lobby after get off work when she saw Mr. Yu, a senior teacher, carrying two large plastic food bags as he walked in through the door.

Bian Mu quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"What brings you here, sir?"

"I had nothing to do this morning, so my daughter and I made some dumplings and brought them to you. Dumplings and noodles are perfect for the hot summer days, and they're just the right temperature to eat right now." As he spoke, Mr. Yu handed the bag of food to Bian Mu.

"Don't be so polite, it must be so much trouble for you. This way, please!" With that, Bian Mu invited Mr. Yu to find a corner to take out the lunch boxes one by one and prepare to eat.

The fillings included radish and chive beef, and tomato and egg—one meat and one vegetable—along with a refreshing winter melon soup. The meal was plentiful and delicious, clearly the result of careful preparation.

Bian Mu got up and made Teacher Yu a large cup of iced tea, with two slices of lemon on top, which was refreshing and cooling.

The two sat there and chatted for a while.

The dumplings smelled delicious. Mr. Yu is old, so they were probably carefully prepared by his daughter. Occasionally, Bian Mu would look up and notice that Mr. Yu's eyes were a little darting, as if he had something on his mind.

"Teacher Yu! Did you come here today for something else?"

"No... nothing's wrong. Lately, my right eyelid has been twitching non-stop. I know a little about fortune telling, so I did some random calculations for a few days, and every time it came back to my daughter. I've been feeling uneasy at night... You're full of positive energy here, so come over and sit for a bit to calm your nerves. Sigh... her future..." The old man lowered his head and stopped talking when he got to the sad part.

“You really don’t need to worry too much, sir. Everyone has their own life! There’s always a chance for things to turn around. I can see that your daughter is beautiful and intelligent, and her future won’t be too bad.” “That’s true… She’s confined to a wheelchair every day. If something happens to me, she’ll be all alone in the future… I’ve heard that Dr. Bian has the ability to bring the dead back to life. Could you design some kind of plan? We’re not afraid to spend money. Although I’ve lived a poor life, I still have a few old houses. If we liquidate them, we can raise a lot of money!” Mr. Yu became somewhat agitated at the end.

"Please don't get agitated, sir. Did you think we forgot about this after you mentioned it a while ago? No way! We've discussed this quite a bit. Let me make it clear, this isn't about money. There are a few problems involved... Let me have some soup first, and I'll explain everything to you in detail after they've all left." As she spoke, Bian Mu picked up the soup container and took several large gulps. So delicious!

My colleagues chatted and laughed as they left for the day, and the lobby returned to its quiet state.

"Teacher Yu! Let me be frank, your daughter's illness has been dragging on for too long. The flow of Qi, from top to bottom, is almost completely cut off. Even a celestial being descending to earth would have to work hard to fix it! Seriously, let's talk about the first major problem. Let's assume we team up with several medical experts to confirm a safe and feasible treatment plan. I'm saying, let's assume our technology is capable of it! And with divine intervention, we actually manage to pull it off. What would the result be? Your daughter would most likely lose some of her lifespan. Can you accept that?" Bian Mu suddenly said these words.

That sounds a bit scary.

"Huh?! How much has been lost?! Ten years? Or more?"

"Who dares to say exactly how much right now! There's no way to get it from Puxing. This kind of life-saving skill is said to have been lost for many generations, and almost no one knows it anymore. Let me put it this way! Your daughter's illness actually involves the research and development of elixirs of immortality and eternal life." Lowering his voice, Bian Mu explained a few words in a low voice.

"Huh?! Isn't that superstition?"

"No, no! That is the essence of Taoist medicine. Immortality may not be real, but the immortality series was actually in the works. Unfortunately, it was lost in the chaotic era of war. If it were technically possible, you would have to exchange your innate kidney energy. Once a person's innate kidney energy is depleted, it will definitely affect their lifespan."

"I see! Well... we can't just let her spend her whole life alone in a wheelchair, can we?! Let her live a shorter lifespan if she wants! She can't live like a useless person."

"Well... you know Mr. Liang who lives upstairs, right?"

"I've seen him a few times; he does have a somewhat otherworldly air about him. Is he an expert in this field?"

"I wouldn't say he's an expert, but... he might have some ideas. Why don't we let him take a look first? You tell him your intentions, and we'll hear what he has to say?"

"Well... people say your medical skills are much more comprehensive than his..."

"I'm still young! The request you made is a bit too difficult, and I'm really not confident. You know, your daughter can at least stand up and sit normally right now. If I rashly treat her... and accidentally paralyze her again, you'll be chasing me with a knife!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Yu couldn't help but smile.

"That won't work... But what you said does make some sense. Shall we make an appointment with Dr. Liang tomorrow?"

"No need! You two can come anytime tomorrow morning. No need to register. I'll accompany you to talk to Old Liang."

"Great! Is this enough to eat?"

"That's enough, I'm stuffed. This soup is so good! I haven't had such delicious soup in a long time."

Hahaha……

Mr. Yu finally showed a relieved smile.
