Chapter 690: Drunk Talks

In Wang Yao’s clinic, a patient came in the morning. The old man was suffering from a headache and was not sleeping well. After a shot, the old man immediately felt a lot better.

“Is that all? Don’t I need to take medicine?” the old man asked.

“Your problem is not serious, so you don’t need to take medicine,” Wang Yao replied.

“That’s good. Thank you. Sure enough, you are so professional,” the old man said.

“I am flattered,” Wang Yao said.

He could tell that the old man seemed to be worried when he arrived. Wang Yao guessed that it was probably based on from the man that had died in the clinic. That was also the main reason for the decrease in the number of people visiting the clinic lately. Some people also gave him a message on Weibo, concealing the matter, and persuaded him to explain to dispel the doubts of the people. But, Wang Yao did not say anything.

“Master.” Pan Jun also came in the morning.

Without any patients, Wang Yao gave him more things and showed him the case notes of his own treatments. “If you look at these things, you may gain some knowledge.”

They were the accumulation of Wang Yao’s experience, and perhaps even the basis for publishing medical works in the future. It was very important.

“Thank you, Master.” Pan Jun also knew the importance of these notes.

“This can only be seen here and not borrowed,” Wang Yao said.

“Okay.” The opportunity was rare. Pan Jun naturally cherished it.

Wang Yao was reading a Taoist book by the side. “Ask me if there is something you can’t understand.”

“Yeah.” Pan Jun read it slowly. He tried to remember every detail he read. Systematic knowledge was needed in diagnosis. Massage was not enough. There needed to be clear knowledge in the pathology and cause of diseases. Treatment needed to match diseases, including acupuncture, massage, and/or medicines.

“OK, take a break,” Wang Yao whispered. It was noon.

Pan Jun put down the notes in his hands. The things recorded were like they were from another colorful world, which was very addicting to read.

He had grown up in a medical family. His father was an experienced Chinese doctor. Both himself and his sister had learned medicine. Although he was studying Western medicine, he had a certain foundation of Chinese medicine. He could understand it, but he was not proficient at it. He could only understand it but did not go deeper.

Another advantage for him was knowing his ability and limits. When Wang Yao said stop, he stopped. Not being greedy was a valuable trait.

“Let’s go have lunch,” Wang Yao said.

He did not pay Pan Jun a salary, but every time he came, he was treated to a meal. Lunch included a few side dishes and a small pot of wine.

“Master, is it right to drink at noon?” Pan Jun asked.

“Of course you can,” Wang Yao said.

“What?” Pan Jun asked.

“Nothing, it is no problem,” Wang Yao said. “You don’t need to perform a surgery, and there are not many people who come here to see the doctor lately. It is nothing.”

“Oh, that’s good,” Pan Jun said.

He was actually a person who loved wine, but his professional requirements were very high. He could not be drunk while treating patients and it was impossible to operate. He would be punished if he went against the rule.

Opposite the restaurant was a river. To the south, there was a mountain. The hills were planted with chestnuts, and the mountain wind was very cool.

“Master, does our school only consist of two of us?” After drinking a few glasses of wine, Pan Jun gradually talked more.

“Well, yes, for the time being,” Wang Yao said.

“I think you should have two more apprentices,” Pan Jun said.

“Why?” Wang Yao asked.

“Your ability should be passed down,” Pan Jun said. “I am at a limited level. As for massage, I will be satisfied if I have half of your ability, let alone taking pulses, acupuncture, and prescription. We need more people to pass it down.”

Wang Yao didn’t tell him that it was the task of the system to carry forward this pharmacist.

“I have thought about it, but I have not encountered the right one,” he said.

The ability was not something just anyone could learn. At the very least, this person had to be right and without bad thoughts. It would be better to have a certain foundation. It also had to be a person familiar with Wang Yao. There were not many people who satisfied these conditions. An apprentice needed luck.

After eating, they talked while slowly walking back to the clinic.

“This mountain village is very good,” Pan Jun said.

After having visited so many times, he really liked the village. The tranquility could not be found anywhere else, not even in Lianshan, which was quite close.

“If you like, you can buy a house here. It may increase in value!” Wang Yao joked.

“Buy a house? I will definitely buy one,” Pan Jun said. “Master, will it be the base of our pharmacist in the future?”

“Yes,” Wang Yao said.

“That’s right, buy it now, and it will definitely appreciate in the future!” Pan Jun was very sure.

Wang Yao looked at the road under his feet. In the mountain village in front of him, there was a cement road less than 10-feet wide. It was the only road into the village. The road was lined with houses, white walls, and red tiles. They were typical northern buildings. There were mountains on both sides, Xishan and Dongshan, where there were trees, weeds, mountains, and rocks.

People at his age did not really live in the village. They bought houses in Lianshan County. People younger than him were mostly in the county town. After college most of them would stay outside the village. If there was no accident, they would not return to the mountain village. Young people likely would not want to be farmers.

Gradually, there would be only a few old people left in the mountain village. Perhaps after another 30 or 40 years, the mountain village would disappear. This was a common situation in the country: urbanization development and rural hollowing out.

That would not happen in this mountain village. Wang Yao was confident of that.

Suddenly, a car whistled behind them. He looked back and saw a Benz with a foreign plate number. The driver stepped on the gas. The engine made a booming sound as the car galloped past them.

“That was really fast for a mountain village.” Pan Jun frowned slightly.

“Maybe there is an emergency,” Wang Yao said.

They continued walking down slowly and came across a dead chicken on the road. The chicken was bleeding. It had apparently not been dead for long.

“Was it killed by the car just now?” Pan Jun asked.

“It’s a pity,” Wang Yao said. “This chicken will taste better if it could have been raised a while longer.”

“Ah, Master, do you like to eat chicken?” Pan Jun asked.

“No, let’s go,” Wang Yao replied.

They saw the car when they arrived at the clinic.

“Are they here to see a doctor?” Pan Jun asked.

Wang Yao yawned. “I am sleepy. I won’t see any patient this afternoon.”

The two slowly walked up to the clinic. Pan Jun opened the door.

“Oh, come on, those two people are doctors!” Two women in their 20s got out of the car. They were very fashionable and beautiful. They followed Pan Jun and Wang Yao into the clinic.

When the women entered the house, a voice clearly rang out from the inside, “I won’t see any patients this afternoon. You can go back.”

“Ah?!” The two girls were shocked, but they did not leave. They entered the room and saw two men drinking tea.

“Didn’t you hear me clearly?” Wang Yao asked.

“But, it’s not easy for us to come here,” a girl said. “Can you please…”

“No, I won’t see any patients this afternoon. Come back tomorrow,” Wang Yao calmly said.

“We can pay more money,” one of the women said.

Wang Yao rubbed his forehead and though, Nowadays, rich people are so arrogant!

“I won’t,” he said. “Out!”

He said it so loudly that they felt tinnitus.

“Let’s go. We will come again tomorrow!” The other woman dragged her friend to leave.

“He is so arrogant and he is just a doctor!” The woman was very dissatisfied. Her voice was still very loud.

“Don’t talk loudly,” her friend said. “I have inquired about him. This doctor is very professional.”

“Professional? I heard that he killed someone a while ago,” the other woman said.

“If you don’t want to see him, we can go back,” her friend replied.
