Chapter 160 One Wave Has Not Subsided, but Another Wave Has Arisen! (Fourth Update)

It was still early today, and there were not many people treating patients. Lin Bei still had a lot of spiritual ginseng energy left, which was of great use at this moment.

Zeng Cang's injuries were quite serious and he was poisoned. It took a lot of his energy to heal most of them.

The remaining half of the injury was naturally the same as before. Lin Bei directly wrote a prescription and asked him to go to the backyard to grab the medicine.

Then, he took out his share from the stack of banknotes and returned the rest.

After Zeng Cang had mostly recovered from his injuries, his complexion improved and he no longer looked like he was weak and on the verge of death.

He took the banknote, hesitated for a moment, and then took out a few more hundred-tael banknotes and presented them respectfully: "The doctor's life-saving kindness cannot be repaid. I can only repay it with this worldly thing. Please don't refuse!"

Lin Bei is not hypocritical. It is the duty of a doctor to save lives and heal the wounded. In this profession, while being worthy of one's own conscience, it is natural to earn appropriate profits at the same time!

What's more, he did save Zeng Cang's life and offended Fang Chang, the leader of the Hong Gang, so it was reasonable to charge him more money.

A few hundred taels of silver is not much, but for him who is saving up the cost of alchemy secrets, it is still a good sum of money.

"I would like to thank the doctor for saving my life. I haven't asked the doctor's name yet, Zengcang."

Zeng Cang dragged his recovered body and bowed towards Lin Beishen with a sincere expression.

Lin Bei waved his hand and said casually: "Just call me Dr. Lin. In addition, the relationship between you and me is just between a patient and a doctor. I don't save you because I feel sorry for you, nor do I seek repayment. It's just because I am a doctor." Physician!"

He saw that Zeng Cang was different from other patients. He was just desperate and chose a medical clinic at random. I'm afraid I have never heard of Lin Bei, and no relatives or friends have introduced him.

"This..." Zeng Cang didn't expect Lin Bei to say this. He was stunned, and then said: "Anyway, thank you Dr. Lin for saving your life, and for getting you involved in the dispute between me and Fang Chang. I really feel sorry for you. Ashamed..."

Lin Bei interrupted directly: "I don't want to know about your fight with Fang Chang, and I don't want to get involved!"

Zeng Cang nodded, looking ashamed: "But what if Fang Chang comes to trouble you?"

Looking for trouble with me?

Lin Bei showed a bright smile and said confidently: "Then he can just come!"

Lin Bei doesn't cause trouble, but he's not afraid of trouble either!

"In that case, I can rest assured."

Zeng Cang was slightly surprised. He didn't expect the young doctor in front of him to be so confident.

However, even though he couldn't understand, he still nodded.

Everyone has a secret. The doctor in front of him is obviously different. He must have the confidence to dare to go against the leader of the Hong Gang. He may have some mysterious background.

Since he doesn't need his own help, that's all.

Zeng Cang bowed again, and then went to the backyard to grab the medicine with the prescription in hand.

After just a few steps, he suddenly stopped, because Lin Bei's words floated into his ears from behind: "A dragon crossing the river can't fight a local snake, not to mention you are not a dragon crossing the river, so take care of yourself!"

The voice was casual and free, reflecting the nonchalance of its owner.

Zeng Cang paused for a moment and sighed for a long time: "Thank you for your advice, I will keep it in mind!"

How could he not know that since ancient times, it was difficult for a dragon to cross the river to defeat a local snake, and Zeng Cang was not even considered a dragon to cross the river, so there was no way he could fight with a local snake.

Just like this time, if he hadn't met Lin Bei, a kind-hearted doctor, he might have died directly.

The murderer, Fang Chang, can get away with it.

Lin Bei didn't take this incident too seriously and continued to treat patients.

Time passed slowly, and by noon, there were fewer patients.

This is also a unique situation in this ancient society, where people generally get up early.

Lin Bei took it easy, brewing a pot of tea and preparing to close the door and start his own practice schedule.

Besides making money, he should not delay his cultivation. He should combine work and rest. For him, cultivation is considered work, while diagnosing and treating patients can only be regarded as leisure, which does not consume much energy.

Just as he was about to close the door, a foot suddenly crossed the threshold and stepped in, followed by a voice: "I didn't expect a new medical clinic to be opened here. May I ask if Dr. Lin is here?"

Lin Bei took a sip of tea and looked up. What greeted his gaze was a smiling face.

This is a slightly fat middle-aged man who is dressed slightly richly, with a smile on his face. The wrinkles on his face are piled up together, almost squeezing his small mung bean eyes out of sight.

"I wonder who you are?"

Lin Bei stood up to greet the guests and asked unhurriedly.

"Ahem, let me introduce myself. I am a doctor at Renxin Medical Center. My surname is Qi, and my last name is Tian."

Qi Tian's smile did not diminish, he coughed and introduced himself.

"It turns out to be Dr. Qi, whom I have admired for a long time!"

Lin Bei said politely, stretched out his hand to say please, and invited the person into the hospital.

The two of them sat down at a wooden table. Lin Bei quietly made tea. His temperament was elegant and easy-going. He didn't speak a word and just looked at each other quietly.

If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, you will become your enemy if you travel together. He doesn't believe that Qi Tian in front of him is simply visiting him.

His medical clinic has been open for more than a month. If these fellow doctors were really kind enough to come visit, they would have come one after another as early as a month ago. How could they have waited for more than a month before arriving?

Qi Tian's iconic smile did not change, as if he had been smiling all day long. He picked up a cup of tea and blew it gently, but did not drink it. Instead, he said, "I wonder what Dr. Lin thinks of Linjiang?"

Lin Bei smiled casually and put down the teapot: "Linjiang County is worthy of being an ancient city and fortress. The traffic is like a dragon, the prosperity is blinding, the pavilions are towering, and the scenery is superb."

Qi Tian snorted and put down his tea cup: "That's not what Qi is asking. What I mean is, how are the people here?"

Lin Bei said calmly: "The people are kind and simple, they are all modest and polite, and they are very easy to get along with."

Qi Tian laughed, blinked and said, "We doctors make a living by treating diseases and saving people, and the people are our food, clothing, and parents!"

As he spoke, he chuckled and said, "Dr. Lin must have made a lot of money these days!"

Lin Bei thought thoughtfully and admitted generously: "I did make some money."

Qi Tian's smile became even brighter: "I wonder if Dr. Lin wants to take root in Linjiang County?"

"What do you think Dr. Qi said?"

Lin Bei frowned and secretly thought that this guy came to visit for something.

"You must also know that we have two major families in Linjiang City, namely the Shangguan family and the Bai family."

Qi Tian talked eloquently: "The Bai family controls most of the pharmaceutical industry. Almost 90% of the medicinal materials business comes from the Bai family. And almost all the medical clinics in Linjiang City are named Bai..."

Having said this, he picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and looked at Lin Bei.

Lin Bei frowned deeper and stared at Qi Tian: "You mean, you want me to join the Bai family?"

He had already noticed that the pharmaceutical industry in Linjiang was very deep, but he didn't expect it to be so deep.

I had just offended the Hong Gang, but unexpectedly the Bai family arrived again.

It’s like one wave after another!
