Chapter 161: What's the Point of Seeing a Doctor if You Don't Have Money?

Li Beifeng looked at Shen Qingning strangely.

"Missing? Where are you going?"

"No, I, I mean if..."

Shen Qingning stared at Li Beifeng with burning eyes, "If I disappear one day, will you look for me?"

Li Beifeng thought for a while: "Then it depends on the situation."

"What situation?"

"It depends on how you disappeared... whether you disappeared, kidnapped, or disappeared..."

Shen Qingning was stunned for a moment, "This... is there any difference?"

"Of course!"

Li Beifeng nodded: "Look, if you disappear, then they will definitely look for you. If something happens to you, your father will definitely blame me and will be the first to trouble me. If you are kidnapped... then your father will have to take action. The person who can kidnap you must be after your family's money. Only your father can save you. As for disappearing..."

Li Beifeng paused and sighed.

"Then what will happen to you?"

Shen Qingning looked at Li Beifeng with a slightly expectant look.

"Then what about me..."

Li Beifeng glanced at her: "I'll help you report to the police."

"..."

"Hmph!"

Shen Qingning snorted heavily, pouted her lips and glared at Li Beifeng, expressing her dissatisfaction.

However, her expression was completely ignored by Li Beifeng.

He felt that this girl was angry with her father today and came here to seek comfort and a sense of existence.

But it's a pity.

Li Beifeng is not good at comforting people.

Chicken soup is something that can be fed occasionally. If you feed it too much, it will really become poisonous chicken soup.

"You mean, if I really disappear...you really won't look for me?"

After glaring at Li Beifeng for a long time, Shen Qingning found that this guy didn't react at all, and her tone became a little depressed.

"Did I say that?"

"That's what you mean."

"Didn't I just say I would look for you?"

"Then you're just worried that my dad will cause you trouble!"

Shen Qingning said angrily: "If my dad doesn't cause you trouble, will you not look for me?"

Li Beifeng hesitated for a moment.

Just like this, he was stunned and was seen by Shen Qingning, and he was immediately shocked.

"I knew it was like this, you don't care about me at all. Even if I disappeared, disappeared, and my whereabouts are unknown... you won't look for me at all!"

"I didn't expect you to be such a person! I was so nice to you before..."

"..."

After a while.

"Is the show over?"

Li Beifeng glanced at Shen Qingning, who was panting and dry-mouthed.

"It's over!"

Shen Qingning answered crisply.

After blaming Li Beifeng, she felt a lot better for no reason.

Li Beifeng rolled his eyes and didn't bother with this girl.

He was used to this situation.

Over the years, whenever Shen Qingning was unhappy or unhappy, she would come to Li Beifeng.

She didn't come to talk, but to find faults, provoke and make fun of Li Beifeng. And Li Beifeng was not to be outdone, and he also fought back, and the two of them were tit-for-tat.

In the end, the two were tied, and Shen Qingning went home happily.

This kind of thing has happened more than once or twice, and Shen Qingning seems to enjoy it.

The only difference this time is probably that Li Beifeng didn't argue with her.

"So, what's going on, what happened?"

Li Beifeng glanced at Shen Qingning and asked.

"My dad..."

Shen Qingning hesitated for a moment before saying what she was about to say.

Shaking her head, she said a little irritably: "Forget it, forget it, it's nothing, it's not a big deal..."

Li Beifeng naturally didn't believe it.

It's not a big deal, can it make her so irritated?

However, she didn't want to say it, and Li Beifeng didn't intend to ask more questions.

At this time, Shen Qingning glanced at Li Beifeng: "What are you doing?"

Li Beifeng was spreading some medicinal materials on the table, checking, selecting and classifying them one by one.

"Preparing medicine!"

"What medicine?"

"Medicine to cure diseases and save lives."

"What medicine to cure diseases and save lives?"

"..."

"Why don't you speak?"

Looking at Shen Qingning's face full of interest and curiosity, Li Beifeng stopped his hand and sighed: "Don't you think... it's a bit awkward for us to chat like this?"

"Really?"

Shen Qingning blinked her eyes, not noticing at all.

"If you have nothing to do, I suggest you find a class to attend."

Li Beifeng said: "I still have to work."

"Find a class?"

Shen Qingning muttered to himself and fell into strange contemplation.

What is going to work?

...

Ignoring Shen Qingning who was lost in thought, Li Beifeng concentrated on preparing medicine.

Opening a medicine shop was just his initial plan and idea.

At that time, Li Beifeng did not have high ideals. After earning the reward of 1,000 taels of gold, he even had a plan to retire.

However, that plan changed with the sudden departure of Li Suyi.

Many things have changed drastically because of Li Suyi's departure.

Even Li Beifeng's mentality has completely changed.

Therefore, he gradually made a new plan for the next step.

However, before that, he still needs to make a lot of preparations.

Naturally, the drug store must continue to open. Not only must it be opened, but it must be opened on a large scale.

Just as Li Beifeng said to Su Shan before, he also wants to open the medicine shop to the county and the capital.

For Li Beifeng, the drug store business is a very important part of his plan.

Therefore, he has a lot to do, such as the daily operation of the drug store, planning, and how to solve Cao Yan's problem...

At the same time, a large number of prescriptions are also needed to prepare for emergencies.

Without preparation in advance, Li Beifeng would be helpless on his own.

Shen Qingning watched Li Beifeng work from the side. After staring for a long time, he finally felt a little boring.

She is quite restless, so it is undoubtedly torture for her to sit here so quietly.

Being able to stare at Li Beifeng for so long was considered very patient.

"How about we go out for a walk?"

Shen Qingning tentatively made suggestions to Li Beifeng.

"Not going."

Li Beifeng refused.

"You've been busy for so long, it's time to take a rest!"

"I am not tired."

"I look tired!"

"Then just don't look at it."

"..."

Shen Qingning stared at Li Beifeng angrily.

Biting her lower lip, her beautiful eyes were full of anger.

She knew that Li Beifeng did this on purpose.

"Humph, I won't go if I don't go."

After staring for a while, Shen Qingning felt really bored.

"Is this lady going back?"

Shen Qingning stood up.

"Walk slowly."

Li Beifeng didn't even raise his head.

Shen Qingning walked to the door and looked back at Li Beifeng.

I found that the guy was still busy preparing the medicine.

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly spoke.

"Hello!"

Li Beifeng then raised his head and glanced at her: "Is there anything else?"

"If... I really mean what if. One day I really disappeared. I disappeared for a long time..."

Shen Qingning took a deep breath, looked at Li Beifeng, and said seriously: "You must remember to come to me...even if you just come to see me, okay?"

Li Beifeng, who had not taken it seriously at first, condensed slightly when he heard Shen Qingning's words.

He seemed to realize something, and then he started to look at her.

Why is this girl talking so strangely?

Li Beifeng did not take her words seriously at first, thinking it was Shen Qingning's random thoughts.

It was only now that Li Beifeng heard Shen Qingning repeating the previous question again and her slightly off-looking expression that Li Beifeng finally realized something was wrong.

"Where are you going?"

Li Beifeng looked at Shen Qingning: "Did something happen?"

Shen Qingning just shook her head: "I'm not going anywhere, I will always be here, always here... But, if there really is such a day..."

"You must remember to come to me!"

After saying that, Shen Qingning turned and left.

Li Beifeng was slightly dazed.

This girl...what do you mean by this?

…

Ping'an County.

Anyan Pharmacy.

"Doctor, I'm here to get the medicine. Quickly help me get the medicine. Please hurry up, it's urgent!"

A man who looked like a middle-aged farmer in simple clothes hurried into the pharmacy and grabbed some medicine.

On the counter, a middle-aged shopkeeper was taking a nap with his eyes squinted.

Being startled awake by the sudden sound, he suddenly said angrily: "Why are you making such a noise? Are you going to kill someone? What a noise at noon, why don't we let people take a lunch break?!"

"sorry."

The man's face was filled with guilt and anxiety: "Doctor, life is at stake! My mother is seriously ill. This is the medicine the doctor gave me. He asked me to come and get the medicine. If it's late, I'm afraid something will happen to my mother... …”

"Why are you so anxious? You won't die in a while."

The shopkeeper cursed for a while and then asked: "Where is the prescription?"

The man carefully handed over the preserved prescription: "Doctor, do you have all the medicine... on it?"

The shopkeeper glanced at it with a bit of disgust, and then said in a leisurely manner. "Yes, there are, but the prices are not cheap."

The man suddenly felt a little worried, but when he thought of something, he gritted his teeth and said, "No matter how expensive it is, as long as it can save my mother."

"Then wait."

After saying that, the shopkeeper turned around leisurely to grab the medicine.

At this time, the man was in a hurry and kept walking back and forth, with a look of anxiety on his face.

After a long time, the shopkeeper slowly walked out from the inner door. Throwing the medicinal ingredients on the counter, he said, "This is the prescription you want."

Only then did the man's face show a look of joy, and he murmured to himself: "Great, great, my mother is saved..."

The shopkeeper glanced at this person with some disgust, frowned and said, "Give me the money. The total prescription you want is... fifty taels of silver."

"ah?"

The man seemed to have heard wrongly and couldn't believe his ears.

"Doctor...you are talking about...how much silver?"

"Fifty taels!"

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said calmly.

The man was completely stunned.

"Why, why is it so expensive?"

The man's eyes widened: "How can these medicinal materials cost so much money? Doctor, did you make a miscalculation?"

"It can't be wrong. I have never made a mistake in my calculations!"

The shopkeeper said impatiently: "Don't you have any money? If you don't have any money, why are you here to grab medicine?"

"Doctor...you must have made a mistake!"

At this time, the man panicked: "Doctor, the medicinal materials I want are not enough. The doctor who treated my mother said that it only costs ten taels of silver at most... Why are you so expensive?"

"Who told you it only cost ten taels of silver? Don't you know how to read it yourself?"

The shopkeeper said angrily: "Here is the medicine list. I clearly mark the prices here. I never cheat anyone."

Only then did the man notice the medicine list in front of him. After taking a look, the man immediately realized something was wrong.

"Doctor, why is there a herb in this medicine list? It's not in the prescription I gave you, so why is it so expensive? Also, here, this is not the medicinal ingredient in the prescription I gave you..."

"What's all the fuss about?"

The shopkeeper said angrily: "The prescription you asked for is no longer available. This is a substitute medicinal material, which is more effective and naturally more expensive. I didn't cheat your money!"

"But...but...these medicinal materials are too expensive, and I don't need them."

"It's not up to you whether you need it or not."

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said with a bit of pride: "If you don't believe me, go to other pharmacies and I'm sure they don't have these medicines. I'm the only one in Ping'an County who can get these medicines for you... If you miss this village, just That store is gone!”

"ah?"

Hearing this, the man became anxious.

His mother was still waiting for the medicine at home, but the medicine in front of her was so expensive that he couldn't even afford it.

"Doctor, I can't afford it... I only have a dozen taels of silver with me. Do you think... can you be accommodating?"

These days, a few taels of silver are enough for a poor family to live on for a year.

The man has worked hard for so many years and only managed to save a small amount of savings.

But right now, he doesn't even have enough money to get his mother some medicine.

"No money? If you don't have money, what medicine can you grab?"

The shopkeeper's expression changed, and his tone was very impatient. He waved his hand and said, "Aren't you trying to amuse me? Let's go. If you have money, take medicine. If you don't have money, leave as soon as possible. Don't stop me from doing business."

The man was kicked out of the drug store directly.

The man was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, so he hurried to other pharmacies in Ping'an County to see if he could get the medicine.

However, I went to four or five pharmacies in a row, and the results were basically the same.

The display cabinets of these drug stores seemed to have been arranged by appointment, or the medicinal materials he wanted were not available and replaced with other more expensive medicinal materials.

Or just sit down and raise the price, which is so expensive that he simply can't afford it.

"Doctor, I beg you. My mother is seriously ill and is waiting for life-saving medicine... I don't have so much money now. I owe it first, and I will definitely pay it back to you in the future..."

The man begged, but was driven out mercilessly by the drug store owner.

"Bah, you have to wait for death if you don't have money to go to the doctor. Really, it's so unlucky to encounter this thing in the middle of the day!"

As he spoke, the owner of the drug store spit out a mouthful of saliva.

The man was walking on the street, lost and almost in despair.

All pharmacies have the same results.

The medicinal materials were so expensive that he couldn't even afford them.

"Mom, it's me who is sorry for you, but it's the child who is unfilial..."

The man almost collapsed.

He walked aimlessly on the street and stopped at some point.

Only then did he notice that he had arrived at a busy street.

And behind him, there happened to be another drug store.

The drug store seemed to be newly opened, but the shop front was deserted and not many customers came to the door.
