Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1953 Between the Cold Sun
Dr. Gong's family wasn't well-off, so she was extremely dedicated to her work, especially pediatrics. She almost completely forbade the social activities that her peers typically engaged in, such as weekend dinners, outings, dating, and making friends.

Relatives and friends all say that Xiao Gong is bewitched!
Unlike Luo Zhanqi, Dr. Gong, besides focusing on mastering comprehensive traditional Chinese medicine pediatric skills, also learned as much as she could from Boss Bian.

Having witnessed Boss Bian's amazing skills multiple times recently, and after calmly considering it for a long time, Dr. Gong has made up her mind that, apart from pediatrics, she can only take on gynecology as a sideline in her life, and she has to give up all other specialties.

It was only then that Dr. Gong realized how insignificant she and Luo Zhanqi were in terms of medical skills! To them, Bian Mu was practically a god!

The "Digital Medicine" clinical treatment system seemed like something from another planet to Dr. Gong. She had no connection to its theory, clinical practice, mathematical models, or anything like that. However, as she used the system every day, Dr. Gong gradually realized that she could develop her own small outpatient comprehensive system in private. In the future, she would use that micro-system to open a proper clinic, properly displaying signs for pediatrics and gynecology, and refusing to treat any other types of diseases.

It's not that I'm afraid of knowing a thousand moves, it's that I'm afraid of mastering one move!

The number of residents near the forest farm, plus those in the surrounding small towns, is at least over a million. Bian Mu and his group are at a very high level, and those residents generally can't reach that level. Dr. Gong is confident that he can become a well-known doctor in a small area in just one or two years.

Will money still be a problem then?!
When things go well in the future, I can still buy a big house in the city, practice medicine in the suburbs, and live a comfortable life in Lijin City. It may not be the best, but it's more than enough for me!
"One shouldn't be too greedy! If you're too ruthless, you'll hurt yourself! In the future, as long as I maintain good relationships with clients in the forest area, the annual income will be quite substantial!" Dr. Gong was lost in thought while looking at the work television screen when his phone rang! It was Boss Bian calling.

"How's the patient you're dealing with going?" Bian Mu asked casually over the phone.

"I just saw Li out the door a little while ago, and there's nothing else going on now."

"Let's tidy up and order some dishes from 'Fujude' first. Don't wait for us, just order them. Keep it simple! During our lunch break, we'll go over there to give that 5-year-old child a mid-term treatment."

"Okay! How many people are you serving?" Dr. Gong asked over the phone.

"Plus Dr. Luo, that's enough for three people!"

"Okay!" After saying that, Dr. Gong waited until Bian Mu hung up the phone before putting her phone away. In her opinion, such small details are actually rules, and paying more attention to them in daily life makes a big difference.

……

Before leaving, Bian Mu specifically reminded himself to bring a few bags of birdseed. He got it from San Qiangzi. The main ingredients were wheat flour, five-spice powder, cardamom, sesame oil, earthworms, etc. It was made using a special process and looked a bit like roasted soybeans. You could even eat a single grain of it. It was incredibly fragrant!

Opening the refrigerator, Bian Mu took out three Bian stone plates: Heaven, Earth, and Man. Although made from the same piece of jade, each plate had its own specific use in treatment. Made of imported jadeite, their snow-blue base shimmered with cloud-like patterns—truly fine pieces! Bian Mu had acquired this jade at the "Flower Field Ghost Market" shortly after the Spring Festival. Grandpa Yang had a skilled craftsman polish it into pieces. Bian Mu rarely used these tools. They were icy cold, especially the jade core, which was already thoroughly chilled. What Bian Mu needed today was this penetrating, bone-chilling coldness.

……

The little boy clearly had a good impression of Bian Mu. As soon as they met, he eagerly reported his family's recent "achievements." At least, he could already count by saying numbers like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. By comparing with the flashcards, he could also describe animals, ships, weapons, etc., fairly clearly. However, he still had some speech impediments, and his tone and voice quality were not up to the standard of an average person.

"Congratulations! Things will only get better from now on. In two or three years, you'll be able to sing your favorite nursery rhymes with other children. 'White Dragon Horse, hooves facing west, carrying Tang Sanzang and his three disciples...' Bian Mu leaned down and sang a few lines of the nursery rhyme with great interest."

Upon hearing this, the little boy's eyes lit up, and he clenched his fists and nodded excitedly.

"Uncle, I need to do some treatment on the soles of your feet. It will be a little uncomfortable. As a little man, you have to try to bear with it, okay?" Bian Mu explained with a smile.

It was unclear how much the little boy understood, but everyone saw him smile and nod trustingly. This amused everyone, and the little boy's father, rarely seen doing so, smiled with relief, feeling incredibly happy.

Bian Mu arranged for the little boy to lie face down on the sofa. Sitting next to him, Bian Mu explained to Luo Zhanqi and Dr. Gong, "I'll first give the child five acupuncture needles to calm his mind. The purpose is to guide the pain-sensing meridians on both sides of the soles of his feet to the tear ducts. When I do the Bian therapy later, the child's eyes will become very moist. If the treatment is effective, he will cry. Dr. Gong, you stay with him and let him know when he tends to wipe away tears, so as not to get his eyes infected. Theoretically, when I'm treating him, he should be too busy with his eye discomfort to move his body unconsciously. If something unexpected happens, Dr. Luo, you need to comfort him and, if necessary, hold him down so I can finish the treatment as soon as possible."

Dr. Gong and Luo Zhanqi nodded quickly.

One needle was inserted into each of the lower legs, one into the lower back, and one into the middle of the back of the neck. All of these needles were inserted along the path of draining Yang Qi. After waiting for about five or six minutes, the child's eyes began to well up with tears.

Dr. Gong sat there chatting with the little boy, with tissues already prepared for later. The little boy seemed to like Dr. Gong quite a bit, and the two chatted about what kinds of small animals they usually saw in the forest. The more they talked, the closer they became.

Bian Mu first used the jade tablet to scrape along the joints of the little boy's foot. This was Luo Zhanqi's forte and his specialty. He knew that the boss was using the "shaking" technique, the purpose of which was to blend the cold energy inherent in the jade tablet with the excess yang energy in the little boy's body, thereby stimulating the release of internal yang. When yin and yang converged, the energy in the meridians around the joints would vibrate rhythmically, thus reconnecting the yin and yang energies of heaven and earth...

Luo Zhanqi believes that he is not yet at the level of his boss.

"This kind of jade is naturally cold, and it's been frozen in the refrigerator for quite a long time, so the coldness penetrates to the bone... The boss is planning to restart his Tongtian Lung Qi! Only he could do this. No one else would dare to do it directly. If this guy slips up and loses some of the coldness, it will stay with him for life! Not to mention, his parents can't stand the constant cough!" Thinking of this, Luo Zhanqi couldn't help but feel worried for Bian Mu.
