I'm telling fortunes in North America. I'm really not a wizard.

Chapter 87 A Man's Plea

Attorney Samps said: "There are two departments that came to investigate. One is the Medical Association, and the other is the Medical Affairs Committee."

Chen Yaozu was not sure about the difference: "What's the difference between these two?"

The beautiful assistant lawyer stepped forward to explain earnestly: "Mr. Archbishop, of course they are different. Although the jurisdictions of these two associations overlap, they actually have their own focuses."

"The Medical Association is here to check whether you have used any illegal drugs. They probably don't believe that silver needles alone can be used to treat illnesses.

They suspect that you have used any medication, even Chinese medicine!

And you are not qualified to use medicine!"

She then added:
“The Medical Affairs Committee, as its name suggests, is responsible for managing medical affairs.

They are responsible for the issuance, review and upgrading of medical licenses.

The main purpose of their visit this time is to investigate whether you are treating patients without a medical license."

After saying that, the beautiful assistant lawyer also reminded seriously:

"correct!
There is one more thing that needs special attention.

If some of you are doctors by profession and have a California medical license, that will be of no use.

Because this isn't California!

It is illegal for doctors with California medical licenses to come here to treat patients and save lives, and it is also a criminal offense.”

After listening to her detailed explanation, Chen Yaozu suddenly understood.

Like teaching licenses, medical licenses are not valid in every state in America.

When you get a medical license from one state and go to another state, you still need to take the local license exam before you can work, otherwise you will be violating the criminal law.

If you want to practice medicine throughout the United States, you will need to apply for a license in each state. There are more than fifty states and more than fifty medical licenses.

The beautiful assistant lawyer said: "

As you should know, America is a federal country, and each state has its own laws and independence.

Strictly speaking, more than 50 states are more than 50 small countries.

You now face the state's Board of Medical Affairs."

The situation had been explained by his beautiful assistant lawyer, and the top lawyer Samples, who had become a believer, could only add some minor details.

“Even now, Eastern priests hold a unique religious ceremony before every treatment.

But that is now. There was no such process before, and it could be found out with a simple check.

Moreover, even if the current patients were to be investigated by the Medical Affairs Committee, it is difficult to guarantee that they would not testify in court under coercion or inducement that this was medical practice. "

Olivia, who had not left, suddenly interrupted, "If we leave the state, will we be free of the charges?"

When Samples heard this, he immediately shook his head: "No no no no, you can't do that!

If we had run away when we heard the Medical Affairs Committee was coming to investigate, they would have seen it as cowardice and an admission that we were practicing medicine illegally.

Therefore, medical practice must continue, and the idea that this is a religious ritual must be conveyed to everyone.

Before the investigation team arrives!"

Ok!

For a person who has traveled through time and space and has now dabbled in spiritual practice.

Chen Yaozu knew from the knowledge he had gained from the amulet that in history, people like him who had stepped into the threshold of spiritual practice did not have smooth sailing.

You will encounter disasters again and again in life and in practice. This is the price you must pay for going against the will of heaven.

You can’t say it’s against the will of heaven!
That is to say, if you want to stand out and have smooth sailing, it is definitely impossible.

You have to encounter mountains again and again, and then climb over them before you can reach higher peaks.

Climbing mountains and crossing one hill after another are the obstacles on the road of spiritual practice.

For example, the investigation that I am facing now is also a hurdle, isn’t it?

He suddenly told himself a fortune, and after reading the fortune, he looked at Li Jianguo with a strange look on his face.

King Wen's hexagram, Mountain Thunder Yi, Flying Bear in a dream? "Teacher Li, what do you think we should do to make these people outside agree that this is a blessing rather than a medical treatment?"

Li Jianguo had actually been thinking about it just now, and when Chen Yaozu asked him about it, he just thought of a key point.

"Master Seal Holder, in the current situation, we can only make them recognize us in their hearts so that they will not turn against us.

Back then, the great teacher once said four or five years ago that if you want to gain the support of the masses, you must not separate yourself from the masses.

Listen carefully to the voices of the masses, go deep among the masses, and inspire and raise their awareness.

The great teacher also said in 1948 that if we want to attack when the masses are not yet awakened, it would be adventurism.

If we insist on leading the masses to do things that they are unwilling to do, the result will inevitably be failure.

Therefore, we must go among them, be of one mind with them, and remind them so that they know their situation.

Let them be on the same front with us, then they will be a help.

I have been in America for some time and I know about their affairs.

That's why I regret leaving my motherland and coming here!
Back to the topic.

If we want to get support, we must start from their current predicament.

Like medical care, like their housing, like their land, like the $720 loan they had to sign.”

Samples may not understand what Li Jianguo said. Difficulties are indeed difficulties, but how can you expect the victims to form a united front with you?

As an Oriental, Chen Yaozu naturally understood the meaning, but he still wanted to know the specific steps in detail:
"Tell me how to implement it specifically, and let us discuss it!"

……

A disciple was giving acupuncture to a woman in a dilapidated house that had been almost cleaned up.

Next to the woman were her two daughters, a son and her husband.

“Ms. Rui Lisi, you and your children have completed today’s blessing treatment, and your condition has improved.

However, since you were infected with a post-disaster epidemic, your health is still very poor and you want to resume follow-up treatment.

However, starting from tomorrow, I may not be able to treat you anymore.

Those bosses from the Medical Association and the Medical Affairs Committee are coming, we need to avoid suspicion, and we plan to leave here.

But fortunately, when they arrive, they will always pay attention to the medical conditions in the disaster area, and you will receive good treatment.

You must ask the people sent by the Medical Affairs Union for follow-up treatment, otherwise your bodies will collapse."

Among this family, the woman Rui Lisi, one of her two daughters, and her son also contracted the epidemic disease caused by the flood.

The family may have drunk water that was barely filtered after the disaster. They vomited and had diarrhea that night and almost died the next day. Fortunately, they were rescued, but are still recovering.

Their case is the example of a disease that comes like a mountain falling and goes away like a thread being pulled out.

The man, Angerson, stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the Dharma Protector disciple: "Father, can you stay for a few more days? They still need treatment, and we can't live without you!"

The Dharma Protector patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "When the Medical Affairs Committee comes, they will definitely bring a medical team, which is much better than us.

We are only using the most primitive and backward treatment methods, but they will definitely bring advanced medical drugs and equipment to treat the victims.

So, even if we leave, they will bring you more advanced treatments, isn't that better?"

Angelson pleaded, “No, Father, our family doesn’t have medical insurance.

I can’t afford it!
Each person must have medical insurance of $490 per month. There are five people in our family, so we have to spend almost $2500 per month on medical insurance.

My monthly income is only 2500 yuan. My wife needs to take care of the family and works very short hours every day, so my monthly income is less than 1800 yuan.

We simply cannot afford medical insurance, so even if the medical team comes, we cannot afford medical treatment!
You are our family’s last hope…”

At this point, the man finally couldn't help crying.

　According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national average annual wage in the United States in 2023 will be approximately $59 (approximately $428 per month).

　　This means that many people have been averaged up, and many people have been averaged down by high incomes.

　　Many people's pre-tax income is only two or three thousand. If there are five people in a family, they really cannot afford medical insurance.
