“Why did you bring everything back? Didn’t he agree to it?” Upon arriving home, Wang Zecheng’s wife was surprised to see her husband bring back all the things he had taken with him.
“He has agreed, but he would not accept the gifts except for the fruit,” Wang Zecheng said. “Look, he also gave us a box of tea.”
“Look at you. We are asking him for a favor, so how can you get something from him instead of giving it?” his wife scolded.
“I didn’t want to, but I could not fight with him,” Wang Zecheng said. He was afraid Wang Yao would not be happy.
“Forget it. You’ve brought it back already anyway.”
The more Wang Zecheng thought about it, the unhappier he was. “The way this thing has been done…”
The next day, the constructor Zheng Weijun had contacted arrived in the mountain village. He carefully measured the two houses and left. They had to brainstorm about the renovation plan and come up with the blueprints before carrying out the work.
“These rich people have given up on life.”
“Yeah, spending so much money to come to such a small mountain village is strange, but the air here is really good.”
“They can be willful as long as they are rich. That’s their business. Our business is to do this plan well and make money. Also, don’t gossip about him. He is our sponsor.”
“Copy that, Boss!”
Wang Yao only had a few patients in the more. They all only had some small problems. He easily recognized the illnesses and cured them on the spot.
“Oh, Dr. Wang, your medical skills are superb!”
“I’m flattered.”
The woman in her 50s had walked in with a limp but walked out normally.
After leaving the clinic, she said to her son, who had accompanied her, “Look, I told you he had great abilities. You didn’t believe me!”
“Yes, yes, I looked down on him. I don’t care about other things as long as you are in good health,” her son replied. He had greatly underestimated Wang Yao. Unexpectedly, the young man, who was about his age, had amazing skills. It looked like he was giving a simple massage. Yet, after a few acupuncture needles, his mother’s leg pain had been cured.
“Let’s bring your father there to have a look tomorrow. Doesn’t he have a headache all the time? I heard from other people that Dr. Wang treats headaches.”
“Alright, got it. We’ll come tomorrow,” the young man said.
After lunch, Wang Yao went to Nanshan Hill. There were hundreds of herbs growing well in the herbal fields.
He came to a magic herb and bent down in front of it.
It was Purple Backed Dragon’s Tooth. The leaves were like a dragon’s tooth, and the back was light purple. It was a medium-grade magic herb. It nourished the mind and stabilized the fetus.
Feng Jiahe, who was still in Jing, needed this kind of magic herb.
Looking at the tiny leaves, which could only be regarded as a young shoot, Wang Yao smiled and thought, Should I let it grow for a while more?
Before they could leave Jing, the two medicines he had provided would keep her child safe for a short time.
He didn’t rush to leave the hill. Instead, he meditated for a while.
At about 1 p.m., a car arrived at the foot of the mountain. A woman and two men got out of the car. The men looked to be about 40 years old. The woman was a little younger, but she did not look well.
“Is this the place?”
“Yes, this is it. This is the clinic.”
These people were not from the area. They had heard Wang Yao’s medical skills were extremely good, so they had come to seek medical treatment.
“I’ll go and take a look.” One of the men went to the door and discovered it was locked.
“Is he not in?”
“Could it be that he has gone out today?”
“Wait, I’ll go and check.” The man turned on his mobile phone and found Wang Yao’s Weibo.
“No, he didn’t leave the village today. He’s here. Should we wait?”
“OK, let’s go and wait in the car. The wind is chilly.”
Dew had been present in the morning, making the temperature cooler.
After waiting for about 30 minutes, they saw a man approaching from the mountain road. He came to the door of the clinic and opened it.
“He is here.”
The three people got out of the car and went inside the clinic.
“He is so young!”
“Hello, are you Dr. Wang?”
“I am. Are you here for treatment?”
“Yes, please take a look for her.” The man pointed to the woman beside him.
This woman’s complexion was a terrible waxy yellow. Her eyes were dull. Her hair was dry, and her breath was weak. She gave others the impression that she was like a leaf on a tree that was already dried and yellowed and could fall at any time.
“What symptoms do you have?” Wang Yao asked.
“I feel weak all over,” the woman replied. “I can’t sleep at night, and I’m unbearably thirsty. I like drinking water very much, but the more I drink, the thirstier I get.”
“Let me take a look.”
Wang Yao examined the woman and found that her condition was quite strange. Her body had a serious Yin and Yang imbalance. The Yang aura was extremely heavy, but the Yin aura was insufficient, which led to a series of problems.
“I can treat this,” Wang Yao said.
It was easy to explain balancing Yin and Yang auras but difficult in practice. He had a special medicine for it. The Moonlight herb was a top-grade product for nourishing the Yin aura and calming the nerves. There were also other herbs to choose from.
“Really?”
“Of course, but the cost of treatment is very expensive,” Wang Yao said. “Think about it carefully.”
“We don’t have to think about it. We’ll treat it,” the man replied.
“OK, just a moment.”
Wang Yao got up and went to the next room.
“I feel like we should think this through. How capable can he be when he is so young?”
“Let’s not think about it. We’ve come all the way here. I believe Old Chen. Let’s give it a try.”
“OK, I’ll listen to you. Let’s give it a go.”
Nourishing Yin aura, hydrating, calming nerves…
Moonlight herb, Ganoderma lucidum, a little frost…
Wang Yao put the different kinds of herbs into the medicine pot for brewing. He concocted a dose of medicine. After letting it cool for a while, he poured it into a porcelain bottle and re-entered the other room.
“It’s done. Try it and see how the effect is first.” He poured some into a cup and handed it to the woman. She drank it all up.
Her stomach felt warm as the medicine entered her body. After a while, the feeling of dryness and being thirsty seemed to be alleviated. Her head did not feel so bloated either.
“How are you feeling, Xiao Rui?”
“Well, I feel better.”
“That’s good, that’s good. How much is the medicine?”
“It is $100,000.”
“How much?” The two men were stunned. They had expected the medicine to be expensive, but they hadn’t expected it to be so expensive. What kind of medicine could be so expensive? Its value was more expensive than gold and diamonds. This young man was really brave to demand such an exorbitant price.
“$100,000.”
“Well, can you make it cheaper?”
“That is the final price. I can’t make it cheaper.” Wang Yao calmly shook his head.
“Let’s go,” the woman weakly said. She felt that it was too expensive. There was no medicine so expensive in the world. This young man was clearly treating them as fools.
“Xiao Rui, wait a moment.”
“Doctor, what if this medicine doesn’t work?”
“I’m right here, and so is the clinic,” Wang Yao replied.
“Alright, I want it!” The man clenched his teeth and took out his cellphone to transfer money to Wang Yao.
“Brother!” The woman reached out her hand to stop him.
“Xiao Rui, let’s try it. Listen to Brother.”
“Seven days after taking the medicine, you’ll see the effects. Come back at that time for further consultation,” Wang Yao said.
“Her disease is due to the imbalance of Yin and Yang in her body and the deficiency of the Yin aura. You should eat more Yin nourishing food in moderation,” Wang Yao suggested.
There was a saying that nourishment through food was better than medicine.
“OK, we got it.”
The three people left the clinic with the medicine.
Once out of the hospital, the oldest man said to the other slightly younger man, “You’re crazy!”
“You’re stupid to pay $100,000 for medicine!”
