Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Ye Chen knew the importance of online traffic these days, and he didn't pretend to be high-minded.

He has worked in China before and is a young man himself. With such a huge influx of talent, there's no reason for him to let it go!

It would be good if we could gain a group of loyal fans through this opportunity.

It will be much easier to promote things in the future!

We should be low-key when we need to be, but we can't back down when we need to be high-profile!

Ye Chen revealed his account: "Thank you all for your support. Since you all think so highly of me, I won't pretend anymore. I'll be honest, my account is [Ye Chen], which is also my real name. Okay, I'm ending the broadcast now, otherwise the female streamer will be worried when she wakes up and can't find her phone. Goodbye!"

After saying that, Ye Chen kindly helped the female streamer exit the live stream.

After all, keeping a live stream running does consume a lot of power!

Ye Chen had the medical staff take the live-streaming equipment with him.

After the female anchor was sent away, the atmosphere on set became noticeably more relaxed.

Ye Chen called out, "The tea at the entrance is free to help yourself. We have a single cup, so gentlemen and ladies, please have some water first!"

Old Master Zeng looked at Ye Chen solemnly and said, "Benefactor Ye, I have high hopes for you. Our China will soon produce an extraordinary master of traditional Chinese medicine!"

"Hehe, Elder Zeng, you're joking. How could I dare to call myself a national master of traditional Chinese medicine? You're trying to flatter me to death!" Ye Chen waved his hand.

Old Zeng shook his head: "Hey, I'm telling the truth! Of course, I only said that because there were no outsiders present. I know my limits!"

"If you ever have any trouble in the future, you can call me anytime. I still have some connections!" Old Zeng handed Ye Chen a silver business card.

There's only one name and one number on it!

Ye Chen solemnly accepted it: "Thank you for your high regard, Elder Zeng!"

Old Zeng nodded: "Your clinic has just opened, and you must have a lot to do. We'll be going now, see you another day!"

"There are indeed quite a few people today, so it's inevitable that we might not be able to take good care of you all. I won't keep you any longer. Tonight, I've booked two tables at Plum Garden. I hope Elder Zeng will do me the honor of having a couple of drinks!" Ye Chen cupped his hands in greeting.

Old Zeng nodded: "Okay!"

After waving goodbye to the others, he left with his granddaughter.

The others also took their leave, and Ye Chen didn't have the energy to continue entertaining them.

Ye Chen looked at everyone and smiled, "You absolutely must come tonight, otherwise I'll have to pack up the food and deliver it to your homes!"

"Haha, definitely! How could I refuse Brother Ye's invitation? See you tonight!" Old Xie said with a smile.

"It's rare for Brother Ye to make a profit, we should at least go and have a meal, haha!" Old Zhou said with a smile.

Everyone nodded and smiled.

As the bigwigs left, most of the onlookers dispersed, but some remained.

"Dr. Ye, is the TCM clinic open today?" an older woman asked as she approached.

Ye Chen nodded: "Of course I'll treat you!"

Ye Chen called out to the remaining people, "The medical consultation is free today too. You can get your tickets from the machine at the entrance!"

Today, Ye Chen also saw patients with Li Wenlong. After all, it was the first day, and as the head of the clinic, he had to personally take charge.

Two doctors are very efficient at seeing patients!

The patients who came for treatment finished their appointments very quickly.

After all, people who come to small clinics usually only have common ailments like headaches, fevers, and coughs.

Even serious illnesses wouldn't be treated in such a small place!

Ye Chen gave them a prescription, allowing them to either get the medicine here or have it prepared outside; the choice was theirs.

Common Chinese medicines are actually not expensive. Except for an older woman who didn't get any medicine, everyone else gave Ye Chen face and got their medicines from the Chinese medicine clinic.

This can be considered a good omen for the TCM clinic!

Another young man had booked an afternoon acupuncture session, but it was for his grandfather.

His grandfather suffered from rheumatism for many years. After seeing Ye Chen's amazing acupuncture skills, he wanted to bring his grandfather to try it.

If there's one, there will be two. As time goes by, the reputation of the TCM clinic will gradually spread and take root in the area.

Zhang Qian was in charge of dispensing the medicine. Since it was her first day on the job and she was not very familiar with the process, and she had only been studying traditional Chinese medicine on her own for half a year, she was very careful in dispensing the medicine and checking the names and quantities of the medicines. As a result, she was a little slow.

She seems to be the busiest one.

Seeing this, Ah Long offered to help, occasionally assisting Zhang Qian.

He was involved in the placement of the medicines, so he knew their location.

I can help retrieve some of the higher-ranking medicinal herbs.

Ah Long's help also relieved some of Zhang Qian's pressure, preventing her from being overwhelmed.

When Li Wenlong had free time, he would also give the two some pointers.

After a morning of work, the two had established initial cooperation, and the medicine dispensing process was on track.

After half a day, everyone felt a sense of accomplishment.

It's definitely quite tiring!

If this workload continues every day, then we'll have to keep hiring!

After seeing his last patient, Ye Chen stretched.

Sure enough, after not working like a beast of burden for a while, I've become a bit rusty. It's been a long time since I've felt this way about work.

Just then, the system voice, which had been silent for a long time, sounded again.

[Ding— The system has detected that the host clinic has treated a total of 30 patients, triggering a hidden reward: one Marrow Cleansing Pill. Would you like to claim it immediately?]

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback; that familiar voice was so beautiful!

The Bone-Cleansing and Marrow-Strengthening Pill is back!

Ye Chen himself certainly hadn't treated that many people; he had a recollection of it.

He and Li Wenlong together should have about this number!

So, does that mean they saw a total of 30 patients in half a day?

hiss--

So does that mean all patients treated at a traditional Chinese medicine clinic are counted in the system's quota?!

Hehe, okay, okay!

Besides, they only see patients and prescribe medicine; the patients aren't even cured yet. Does that count?

Perhaps to some extent this counts; the system probably judged that these people would be cured if they followed the doctor's orders, so it pre-paid them?

Ye Chen was a little excited. Did this mean he could collect the system's hidden rewards even while lying down?!

Ye Chen seemed to have discovered a path to wealth.

At noon, Ye Chen treated the group to a meal as a reward. After the meal, they each found a corner in the traditional Chinese medicine clinic to rest.

The TCM clinic has a two-story layout and is actually quite spacious, with enough room for several people to rest.

After having some free time, Ye Chen picked up his phone and opened Douyin (TikTok), and noticed a red 99+ message notification...

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback. Holy crap, when did he get so many unread messages on Douyin?

You know, normally we only get one or two GG messages every few days!

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have announced his Douyin ID!

Ye Chen was so busy all morning that he almost forgot about this!

Uh......

Could those people in the live stream actually be following him?!

Ye Chen hurriedly opened his personal profile and found that he had 125800 followers!

Ye Chen blinked and carefully counted to make sure he hadn't missed an extra zero.

That's 125,800 fans!

Ye Chen jumped up in a flash, "Holy crap!"

Wow, people are actually paying attention to him! And there were 12.5 people who came right away!
