Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2409 The dishes can never be washed properly
After hearing Bian Mu's reply, Meng Shulan seemed to choose to remain silent for a short while on the other end of the phone.

Left with no other choice, Bian Mu had to bite the bullet and continue speaking.

"Teacher Meng! I'm not very worldly-wise, and my knowledge in all aspects is quite limited! Sometimes my understanding of problems is rather simplistic, so please forgive any inappropriate remarks! In my opinion, cancer, a serious illness that can cause death in a short time, is definitely a terminal illness given current medical standards! From a humanistic perspective, cancer should indeed be categorized as an internal or external pathogenic factor. Furthermore, the traditional Chinese medicine community's arguments regarding cancer tend to lean towards the theory of cold stagnation. Wasn't that because the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine wasn't as deep or extensive back then? Now it's different. In the AI ​​era, the power of technology has simultaneously driven significant changes in the basic ethics and philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine. At least, it's a step forward. As you know, once cancer is diagnosed, its progression is extremely rapid. If we consider the perspective of energy, magnetic fields, and information interaction..." From a new perspective, the cancer system is complete and powerful. If we easily draw conclusions based on the traditional dialectic of good and evil, it doesn't make sense from a fundamental medical logic standpoint. Therefore, under certain conditions, the specific analysis of certain cancer patients' conditions seems to be only able to explain the disease as caused by "excessive Yang." Specifically, positive factors have an absolute advantage, and medicine is almost powerless to suppress them. Objectively speaking, cancer should indeed be classified as positive. In this specific medical context—and I must emphasize here—under this specific context, considering cancer as positive and malignant tumors as Yang, and on this basis, re-diagnosing and redefining the angle of drug selection, and then carrying out related treatments, is actually more conducive to controlling the disease! I dare not speak recklessly about effective treatment, but I can prove that it has some effect right now!" With great caution, Bian Mu patiently explained the most crucial philosophical reasoning.

Bian Mu dares to speak and take responsibility for his genuine medical theoretical discussions, and he doesn't care even if Meng Shulan intends to record the conversation as evidence.

"No wonder... From a purely philosophical perspective... that makes perfect sense! Hmm... quite good, certainly insightful... Thank you! You're still outpatients today, right?"

"Yes, but it's still early, so please don't mind. After all, it's our own clinic, so being late or leaving early is no big deal. At most, we'll explain things to the patients a little more, charge them a little less, and give them a gift before they leave. It's nothing compared to a top-tier hospital!"

"Hehe... Sorry to bother you, you go ahead with your work, we can discuss it another time!" With that, Meng Shulan hung up the phone.

Putting down his chopsticks, Bian Mu quickly tried to recall what he had said, afraid he might have said something wrong...

Fortunately, I didn't say anything particularly taboo, so what Teacher Meng Shulan thought after hearing it was none of my business.

Meng Shulan is a renowned medical expert with a profound understanding of both Chinese and Western medicine. Bian Mu's limited knowledge is hardly considered insightful in her eyes. Perhaps, Teacher Meng is just using this as an excuse to chat with him, or even... Teacher Meng is giving him a way out. If Bian Mu is sensible, he should really consider bringing a suitable gift to visit Teacher Meng in the future.

After thinking for a while, Bian Mu felt that she had not committed any unforgivable mistake, so she picked up her chopsticks again and ate the rest of her breakfast clean. Bian Mu had developed a good habit since she was a child: she basically did not leave any food behind.

After tidying up the house and changing his clothes, Bian Mu had just reached the door and was about to open it to leave when his phone rang again.

Lan Bingru's phone call.

"Have you received the relevant materials?"

"I've studied it several times. I wonder what guidance Teacher Lan has?" Bian Mu asked hurriedly over the phone. It was early in the morning, and unless it was something urgent, Lan Bingru would definitely not have called, especially not on a landline.

"Is there anything the owner of this place should emphasize about my relative? Or is there any important advice he could give me..." Lan Bingru asked this question very subtly over the phone.

Smiling, Bian Mu felt that it was unnecessary for Teacher Lan to speak to her like that.

"You should already know that I never treat cancer patients. Therefore... given my young age, I'm practically a complete novice when it comes to cancer treatment, so... I can't just spout off anything. You're calling at this hour, I understand you're particularly worried about your relative's safety. Well... I can only add a few minor details; please forgive me if I'm wrong, Professor Lan!" On the other end of the phone, Bian Mu responded in a similarly subtle way. "No problem, we're all family here, I'm all ears!"

"Teacher Lan, you're too kind! Your relative must be quite well-off; they probably have a nanny, right?"

"Indeed, I remember they employ at least two full-time nannies, each with their own duties and no interference with each other. In addition, they also employ a full-time personal assistant, a business assistant, a chauffeur, and so on. There's no way around it, the company is big and busy, otherwise they wouldn't be like this... Is something not quite right?"

"No, no! This is just my personal guess. If I'm wrong, please forgive me."

"Don't be so polite, what are you referring to?"

"If it's convenient, Ms. Lan, could you please inquire privately about the current situation of their nanny, as well as the specific circumstances of whether she was previously dismissed or resigned voluntarily? If possible, I suggest you have a good talk with the few who previously worked for them and subsequently left for various reasons!"

"Oh... I'm getting more and more confused. You mean... my relative has a major medical or health risk related to their daily life and diet? Is that a correct understanding?"

"Well, it's a minor issue, but it's not a major hidden danger."

"Please speak, I'll arrange it right away!"

"Their daily meals are not easy to cook, as it's difficult to please everyone. I want to emphasize that their dishes are extremely difficult to clean. Even a capable nanny will often be criticized or even fired for failing to clean the dishes properly after several attempts. Of course, some more ambitious nannies simply quit on their own."

"Oh... I haven't heard much about that! I've eaten at their restaurant before, and it's very refined, the kind of place where they're extremely particular about food... Oh... I see, I'll arrange for someone to investigate. Thank you for your patronage, Master!"

"Teacher Lan, please don't say that. I was just guessing based on my usual experience. Also, let me tell you something. Just now, Teacher Meng Shulan and I discussed a very basic medical philosophy issue..." As she spoke, Bian Mu briefly reported the conversation that had taken place early in the morning to Lan Bingru.

As it turned out, Bian Muduo was right to say those words.

"Oh... I see. I'll review the entire treatment plan later. Thanks for the reminder!"

After exchanging a few polite words, Lan Bingru hung up the phone.
