  “I originally didn’t have much to do with it, but I know about the medical conditions in our hospital well. I also know roughly about the standard of those guys. There’s really no certainty of the success of the surgery. I’ve just spoken my opinion, but some people aren’t happy.”


  “Oh. You’re too honest,” Wang Yao replied with a smile.

  “I’m not being honest, but it’s the reality. From the patients’ point of view, by receiving the relevant treatments here, the coefficient of risks will be relatively larger. After all, our experience in regards to this aspect is lacking. Therefore, it would be better to go to a big hospital. From the viewpoint of our condition here, the possibility of malpractice would be higher due to the lack of experience. We should reject these surgeries that we’re not confident with when we have to,” Pan Jun explained.

  “Have you thought about it before? This is a vicious circle.”


  In the hospitals in some small places, there were fewer patients due to poor medical standards. The medical standards were poor because there were fewer patients. Hence, the doctors had less exposure and less experience. This cycle was repeated.

  “I know, but what choice do we have?” Pan Jun asked.

  “You can invite some specialists from the big hospitals over to provide guidance,” Wang Yao said. “Doesn’t the hospital regularly send people to the big hospitals nearby for advanced studies?”


  “Yes. I’ve been to Ji for advanced studies, but the duration is short and effect is limited. The primary issue is the system. It lacks a good institutional system,” Pan Jun replied.

  “We can’t change these things. Drink some tea.” Wang Yao poured Pan Jun a cup of tea. He could see that Pan Jun was not in a good mood.

  “I’ve forgotten about my proper business. I’m here to ask for your help.”


  “How can I help you?”


  “What else? Treat a patient,” Pan Jun responded.

  “Is he your relative?”


  “He’s my friend.”


  “Is he reliable?”


  “No problem.”


  “What illness does he have?”


  “Umm, it’s a bit difficult to talk about it,” Pan Jun answered after thinking for a moment. “He has erectile dysfunction.”


  “What?” Wang Yao was stunned.

  “Erectile dysfunction. He’s a man.”


  “Ah!” Wang Yao responded.

  Well, this illness was indeed……

  Seeing that Wang Yao was only smiling, Pan Jun asked, “What are you smiling at? Have you agreed?”


  “Let me think about it,” Wang Yao did not rush to agree.

  “Okay. You need to hurry. Due to this matter, my friend and his wife aren’t on harmonious terms and are getting a divorce!”


  “Alright.”


  He chatted with Wang Yao for a while to express the unpleasant emotions in his heart. Pan Jun then made a move to leave.

  Wang Yao was contemplating on whether to receive this patient or not.

  I can give it a try. That was his inner thoughts.

  Pan Jun saw Wang Yao’s text message when he returned home.

  It’s a success! He clapped his hands happily.

  Early the next day, Wang Yao was already ready and waiting for the arrival of the old Mr. Sang, Zhou Xiong, and his son.

  “This is the place.”


  Sang Guzi came to this village for the first time. He looked at the situation around him and pictured the road conditions along the way.

  “Wang Yao can actually endure it?”


  Wang Yao could concentrate in everything he did. It was extremely rare that he could not endure loneliness.

  “Yes,” Zhou Xiong said.

  It was the first time that Zhou Xiong had seen the medical center upon the completion of its construction.

  “The medical center is very beautiful,” he said.

  “It’s indeed beautiful,” the old Mr. Sang agreed.

  The three of them entered the small courtyard.

  Huh?

  After taking a close look, Sang Guzi was a little surprised.

  “Battle array?”


  “Do you know about this as well?” Wang Yao’s voice came from the inside of the room. He heard someone opening the door. He then came out and saw the three of them.

  “Sorry to bother you.”


  “Please come in.”


  Before entering the house, Sang Guzi carefully looked at the arrangements of the plants in the yard.

  Battle arrays were things in legends. He did not expect to actually see one in this small courtyard.

  “What kind of array is this?”


  “A small and simple one. It can enhance the air circulation and improve a part of the environment.” Wang Yao brewed them some tea. “Please drink some tea.”


  “Thank you.”


  Sang Guzi took a sip of tea. The tea left a lingering fragrance in his mouth. It was an authentic, excellent tea.

  “What an excellent tea,” he said.

  “You’re flattering me,” Wang Yao replied.

  The tea Wang Yao brewed was the top-grade tea processed by Master Xu Maosheng from the riverside town. He used the tea leaves that Wang Yao had picked from the mountains a few months ago around the Qingming Festival.

  “I don’t have anything to serve you here. There’s just a pot of tea and a few bunches of grapes I’ve planted myself. Taste them.”


  Once again, the grapes Wang Yao planted had left them in awe.

  “How is Kang recovering?” Wang Yao asked.

  “It’s recovering pretty well. Look!” Zhou Wukang said as he rolled up his sleeves. It could be seen that his arms had luster and elasticity, which was close to the skin of a normal person. Compared to his condition when he first came to Lianshan County, he was no longer as thin as firewood, like a dead object.

  Wang Yao gave him a detailed examination again. Zhou Wukang was indeed a lot better. Half of the blocked channels and collaterals in his arms had been dredged. This meant that Wang Yao was a step closer to completing the curing the illness that was difficult to treat.

  “Very good. You’re recovering quite well,” Wang Yao said.

  “This is all thanks to the medicine given by Dr. Wang and the massaging techniques that you’ve taught me,” Zhou Xiong replied.

  Ever since he returned to Cangzhou, he had to give his son a massage every day by using the methods Wang Yao had taught him. He did not use any tricks or change anything, which gave rise to the effect that could now be seen.

  “You’re welcome. This is thanks to the old Mr. Sang too. If I’m not mistaken, he must’ve treated Kang often by using acupuncture when they’re in Cangzhou,” Wang Yao said.

  “Yes. This is thanks to Sang Lao too.”


  “Aye!” the old Mr. Sang smiled while waving his hand.

  “I’ll decoct another medicine again in a few days for Kang to consume.”


  “Thank you.”


  After that, Wang Yao gave Zhou Wukang a massage. He did it slowly, while both Zhou Xiong and Sang Guzi watched carefully.

  After the process had ended, Sang Guzi said, “I admire you!”


  Wang Yao’s accuracy of recognizing the acupoints during the massaging process was beyond his imagination.

  “Dr. Wang’s acupuncture methods must be very excellent too, right?” the old Mr. Sang said all of a sudden.

  The most important thing about the methods of acupuncture was the accuracy of recognizing the acupoints. This was exactly the hardest to master. After all, the distribution of the acupoints in the human body were invisible to the naked eye. It required knowledge and practice. Very few people were willing to do these. This was also the reason behind the decline of Chinese medicine.

  Wang Yao just laughed.

  Excellent? He was just getting started.

  “It’s done. Where’s Sang Lao staying?”


  “I’m staying in Lianshan County,” he replied.

  “It’s my treat tonight,” Wang Yao sad.

  “How is that okay?”


  “Why isn’t it okay? You’re the guests. Listen to me,” Wang Yao replied.

  “Alright then.” Sang Guzi did not say anything else.

  After seeing them off, Wang Yao booked a private room at the Taihua Hotel and called Li Maoshuang and the others. It would be livelier to invite a few more people.

  Wang Yao notified his parents during lunch that he wouldn’t be home for dinner.

  In the afternoon, he went up the hill again and tidied up the herbal field. At around 4 p.m., he drove to Lianshan County and went to Wang Mingbao’s shop.

  “This is rare,” Wang Mingbao said with a smile when he saw Wang Yao.

  Ever since the medical center was opened, Wang Yao seldom came out.

  “Have you booked a place?”


  “Yes, at the Taihua Hotel,” Wang Yao said.

  “Drink some tea.”


  Wang Yao stayed at Wang Mingbao’s shop until 5 p.m. They then went to the Taihua Hotel together.

  The food at the hotel could only be regarded as ordinary. The taste of the dishes could not even compare to that of some of the small restaurants. However, its level of luxury was one of the best. In terms of entertaining friends, especially friends from afar and an elder, ordinary small restaurants were not as good of a choice. Their grades were unsatisfactory. Therefore, Wang Yao chose Taihua Hotel.

  At 6 p.m., everyone was present. Wang Yao introduced them to each other.

  The dishes were served quickly. They were nothing special, but the wine was excellent. They drank to their hearts’ content. The old Mr. Sang even drank a few glasses of wine.

  “Sang Lao, how long will you be staying in Lianshan County this time?” Wang Yao asked.

  “I’m planning to leave tomorrow.”


  “Why in such a hurry?”


  “I actually came to see you and your medical center on purpose this time,” the old Mr. Sang replied.

  Feeling the old man’s true feelings and care, Wang Yao sincerely thanked him.

  “Very few people these days can concentrate on learning these things,” the old Mr. Sang said.
