Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2106 They managed to completely eliminate the tumor.
After politely seeing Teacher Xiao An off into the car and watching the intercity SUV drive away, Bian Mu finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Back at the hotel, Bian Mu found a quiet corner to sit in the temporary rest area, took out his phone and called Old Liang, the forest ranger, briefly mentioning that Anderlin was trying to raise prices.

"Hehe... I'm sure you've noticed it too. Old Pei did some things poorly. Sigh! Our two families are pretty much the same in this respect. Our children are useless, and we can't bring ourselves to be ruthless! Fortunately, he usually doesn't hide anything from me. I've talked to him about it a few times, and he didn't go any further. He soon parted ways with Anderlin and the others. Otherwise, you would have suffered some losses at 'Hongyang'!" On the other end of the phone, Old Liang was essentially apologizing to Bian Mu on behalf of the herbalist Old Pei.

"It's nothing! Uncle Pei is just trying to make a little more money! It's not like he's saving money for their retirement. Sigh! Parents always worry about their children! I understand. Besides, our people here were prepared, so nothing major went wrong. A few twists and turns are normal, Mr. Liang! Actually, things like this are quite good in a way. These little setbacks can 'cleanse' the selfishness buried in everyone's hearts, thus 'unloading' deeper calculations and darker schemes on a larger scale. I realized this by accident while doing an experiment late at night in the Little White Building." "Times have changed. The ways people communicate and understand each other have become more academic and, naturally, more rational. If it weren't for the fact that Teacher Xiao An is a high school math teacher, she definitely wouldn't have listened to a single word of what the younger generation was saying! Uncle Pei is such a wise person; he just needs to think it through a few times. He's got the big picture right. This is something entirely new in this new era. Ordinary people have limited education and are still confused right now!" On the other end of the phone, Bian Mu deeply understood and forgave Old Pei's little tricks behind the scenes.

“Smart people are easy to get along with. Luckily, Lao Pei is very good at math, so he didn’t lose his mind at the crucial moment. When dealing with people like us, you have to learn to think big, otherwise, you’ll fall out with us sooner or later! So… how do you plan to talk to that guy surnamed An?”

"I'll first summarize everything with Accountant Yu, and then I'll ask Assistant Zhang to help me find a young, unremarkable-looking, above-average-intelligence, currently not very successful, and very smooth-talking female lawyer. The three of us will meet up first, summarize all the accounts, and then arrange to meet with President An somewhere to have a talk."

"Sure! A lawyer, huh? I bumped into one by chance. She's not exactly pretty, all yellow and thin, from Liyang County, with a master's degree, about two or three years older than you, and she's having a tough time. Once, she was begging someone to open a case for her outside the courthouse, and she almost got beaten up by a guy. I happened to be passing by and helped her out. The girl is actually quite smart, but her looks have definitely put her at a disadvantage. She has a younger brother in school, and her parents aren't very capable; they just raise chickens and grow vegetables to support their education. They're a nice person though. I chatted with her for a bit on the street, and it turns out she's paying her rent with a mortgage. I introduced her to a few cases, and she was incredibly grateful. Actually, her strength is in accounting; she should take on more economic disputes. Criminal defense isn't for her. What good is intelligence and a silver tongue if she has no background in accounting? Do you want to meet her?"

"What else is there to say! The person you've chosen is most likely an exceptional individual. Let me and Accountant Yu treat her to dinner tonight!"

"She couldn't be happier! She's been eating cabbage and potatoes all day, and the little girl is almost malnourished. She can also take a pulse to check on the child's health and give her some important advice. Her parents aren't around, and she's struggling alone in the big city. It's so pitiful! Luckily, she's quite determined. If it weren't for her stubbornness, I wouldn't bother with her business."

"That day... you didn't do anything to that guy, did you?" Bian Mu joked with a laugh on the other end of the phone.

“I’m so old I can barely walk anymore. He’s so strong, what could I possibly do to him? I just lightly touched his lower back, what could possibly happen!”

"Hahaha... I'm truly impressed by you, old man! Then please arrange for that female lawyer to make a call to me."

"Yeah! Don't you always have a few new phones lying around? Pick a good one for her. Of course, I'll make it clear to her beforehand that she can pay you back when she's doing well! Really! You really have to accept her money back! For a job like hers, not having a decent phone would be a huge hindrance. We're helping her for a reason; your business will only grow bigger and bigger, and you'll need a good lawyer by your side to keep things under control. Hopefully, she can hold onto her job securely!"

"Understood! If there's nothing else, I'll go back to the clinic and talk to Accountant Yu."

“Hmm! Anderlin isn’t a bad person. If he weren’t greedy, we really wouldn’t dare to cooperate with him long-term! Businessmen are like that! We’re not afraid of their greed, we’re afraid of their lack of brains and their self-righteousness! You go ahead with your work, I’m going to take a stroll around Yunfeng Ridge.”

"Oh?! You went alone?"

"It's nothing. I'm just visiting an old friend. He's getting on in years and his legs aren't so strong anymore. I'll just bring him some medicine while I'm at it. If he ever becomes too old to get out of bed, you might have to go and check on him!" "Of course, it's no trouble at all. Just a word from you, sir. So, what time will you be back?"

"They must be in the city before dark!"

"That's good. After all, you're getting on in years, so you must be careful!" With that, Bian Mu hung up the phone.

……

In the evening, Bian Mu arranged to chat with Accountant Yu in her personal office.

I also took her pulse first...

"Recently, you need to reduce your diet even further, by about one-third. You need to feel hungry from time to time. Stop eating all those snacks you usually eat!" After taking his pulse, Bian Mu smiled and gave him a few instructions.

"Okay, what about the other aspects?"

"As for other matters... find a suitable time to have a good talk with Painter Fang another day. She does understand some things more deeply."

Hearing this, Accountant Yu roughly guessed what was going on, smiled, and didn't ask any further questions.

They were discussing the accounts of "Hongyang" Pharmaceutical Company when their phone rang. It was Lao Hou calling.

"It's confirmed. Cao Qiling's granddaughter is truly remarkable. She managed to completely remove a tumor from a patient's body. As soon as the news spread, Lei Xiaoxuan was furious, hahaha..."

"Nonsense! You actually believe these rumors?! What's the real story?!" On the other end of the phone, Bian Mu casually said a few words to Lao Hou.

"It's true! I've already sent you a copy of the medical record. How could we dare to make things up when facing a legendary doctor like you? It's definitely true!" Old Hou replied confidently over the phone.

Upon hearing this, Bian Mu on the other end of the phone naturally refused to believe it!
