Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2241 Fortification
One after another, following Bian Mu's instructions in the car, the top technical experts from various departments, who had been summoned directly by the dean, performed their duties according to the treatment plan printed by the head nurse. They were busy but not chaotic, and quiet, showing no sign of tension whatsoever.

The eldest daughter of the Zhong family returned to the van and asked Bian Mu, "What exactly happened? Everything was fine when we left home, how could this happen..."

“What would you think if I said I deliberately provoked your brother?!” Bian Mu replied with a smile.

"What...what do you mean?!" Miss Zhong asked hurriedly, seemingly having guessed what was going on.

"Well, to make a long story short, the moment we met at the clinic, through observation, I noticed a certain amount of 'stagnant energy' accumulated about an inch below your brother's inner triangle. As the name suggests, it's like having a lump in your throat, something you have to vent! That's the 'stagnant' part! This internal evil energy has been accumulating in his body for a long time, predating the timeline of that major traffic accident. What's strange is... that 'stagnant' energy was completely dispersed by that accident. For an ordinary person, perhaps some could be expelled through urination, defecation, or sweat. But Mr. Zhong is different; he has all the advantages, and then he met me. To be honest, back then... my medical knowledge was still limited..." "There are many things I missed, at least in this aspect, which I failed to notice in time. Thinking back carefully, the pulse at that time was actually quite evident. At that time, my pulse-taking skills hadn't reached a more advanced level, and that bit of energy was indeed severely impacted. It would be difficult to detect using traditional diagnostic methods like the six techniques of traditional Chinese medicine. It seems... in the future, our clinic's outpatient system needs to be adjusted as soon as possible. Any doctor who has even the slightest doubt about any diagnostic details must record it! This is for remedial purposes and also serves as an inspiration for other colleagues. Oversight at the time doesn't mean a permanent deficiency. As long as the medical conscience remains, the truth will eventually come to light!" As he spoke, Bian Mu seemed to have gone off-topic.

Miss Zhong only listened to the most important information.

"Is that little bit of energy really that dangerous?!" asked the eldest daughter of the Zhong family.

"That's the root of the problem!" Bian Mu replied directly.

"And now?! What's the situation?"

"Amidst the rage, joy, and mixed emotions, the long-lost 'stagnant energy' has gathered together again. President Zhong's illness has a long history, and that so-called 'stagnant energy' has been very stubborn. Now that it has finally gathered together again, we can use medicine and acupuncture more effectively!" Bian Mu explained with a smile.

"The kind of concentrated annihilation?!" With delight, Miss Zhong quickly asked.

“Pretty much. Internal evil that hasn’t taken shape is the most difficult to treat. It’s said that back then, only the old master Situ Jianqing in this area could perform that kind of detailed treatment on these scattered ‘piles of qi,’ and the effect was incredibly fast! Our overall medical skills are far from reaching that level, so we can only wait, or force it and endure it. Once the time is right, it will be easier to use medicine.” Bian Mu patiently explained.

"Will things get better after tonight?" The eldest sister of the Zhong family asked, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Almost! What's even more remarkable is that from now on, Mr. Zhong's temperament will undergo a significant change. For example, he may no longer prioritize work and career. After a period of recuperation, he may gradually improve." Bian Mu said with a smile, offering a few words of comfort.

"It's fortunate that the incident happened near your doorstep, otherwise, his life would really be..."

“Let’s all go back. He’s mostly recovered. Let’s meet up here again early tomorrow morning, around six o’clock. If nothing unexpected happens, Mr. Zhong can be transferred to a sanatorium for a few days. I’ll visit him in the hospital when I have time.”

"Okay, you go back first! I'll wait a little longer. If I go back too early, it will be difficult to explain to my father," said the eldest sister of the Zhong family with a smile.

After seeing Bian Muli off at the hospital gate, the eldest daughter of the Zhong family turned and walked towards the ward. Along the way, she would occasionally hold up a small, flat bottle of traditional Chinese medicine in her hand and examine it carefully. Before leaving, Bian Mu had given the eldest daughter of the Zhong family a small bottle of medicine, saying that it should be dissolved in rice wine and applied to the tip of Zhong Xiangxin's nose with a cotton swab from time to time. It was the tip of the nose, not anywhere else. Furthermore, Bian Mu declared that this medicine was not for Zhong Xiangxin to smell for treatment, but rather to be applied to the tip of the nose to act on the heart through the nose.

Bian Mu also said that this special medicine was a rare and effective medicine that he had refined from the various treatment plans that the senior Liang Xiangyin had handled. Because the preparation process was complicated and required the use of a medicinal cauldron, it was considered a rare medicine. He told Miss Zhong to use it sparingly.

……

"Bian Mu's brain is just unbelievable... It seems that the matter of the medicine cauldron can't be delayed any longer..." Thinking of this, the eldest daughter of the Zhong family took out her phone and made two or three calls.

……

More than an hour later, Pan Shaojie, accompanied by a male assistant, was allowed to visit Zhong Xiangxin in the ward.

Miss Zhong gave him a few light warnings, and Pan Shaojie immediately admitted his mistake, clearly stating that he would formally hold a ceremony to personally escort the two precious medicine cauldrons to the "New Concept" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic and donate them free of charge!
……

The ceremony for donating the medicine cauldron was simple yet solemn. Many prominent figures from various fields attended to show their support for Bian Mu, and several news media outlets also reported on it.

Rumors quickly spread that Bian Mu was reviving the essence of traditional Chinese medicine...

That noon, just after getting off work, Bian Mu received a text message from Cai Huaixin, the current secretary-general of Xiaobailou.

The gist of the text message was that the vocational training classes organized by Gu Yuefeng and his team were very unique, and Xiaobailou was interested in getting involved to promote the new TCM medical culture throughout the city in various forms.

With a nonchalant smile, Bian Mu decided not to take it seriously.

For no other reason than that Professor Mi had not yet completed the formal retirement process, and he could not get too close to Cai Huaixin. Professor Mi was a person who cared about her reputation. Before the old lady officially retired, Bian Mu was determined to do everything in his own way to fully protect the old lady's final dignity.

I had just picked up my cup and taken a sip of water when two prominent academic figures, two PhDs I had met a few days ago, sent me two invitation text messages, one after the other. The first message was from Dr. Fang, who invited Bian Mu to give a lecture. There would be quite a few guests, with more than 300 people already booked so far. The lecture would be held in a large venue, and the topic would be the scientific logic behind the culture of medicine cauldrons.

The other male PhD, surnamed Zhang, invited Bian Mu to their meeting for a discussion. All the attendees were well-known figures in the academic world, and the topic of discussion was not complicated: a contemporary new perspective on the culture of medicine cauldrons.

On the surface, it seems like they're treating Bian Mu quite well, but anyone with a little knowledge can see that those two PhDs are probably trying to sabotage Bian Mu.
