I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

After hearing the voice, Yan Xiu slowly lifted the door curtain and walked out from the back hall.

At this moment, the front hall of the clinic has been tidied up, and the fifty-liang silver ingot shining in the sun is particularly eye-catching.

What is the concept of fifty taels?

In a prosperous place like Yong'an City, ordinary people could only save about six or seven taels of silver after working hard for a whole year.

This type of people already live a wealthy life, have no worries about food and drink, and can even buy a new piece of clothing for their family at the end of the year.

And the people living in poverty, such as the villagers in Anxi Village.

No matter how frugal they were, they could only save three or five taels of silver in a year.

These fifty taels of silver were almost equivalent to their ten years of hard work.

Therefore, when Xie Shucheng and Lin Jianqiu saw the silver ingot, their eyes were immediately attracted to it and they could not look away.

However, ever since Yan Xiu walked out of the back hall, his eyes had never lingered on the silver ingot.

To him, those fifty taels were nothing more than a pile of insignificant possessions.

When the person who threw the silver saw Yan Xiu's reaction, a trace of disdainful smile appeared in his heart.

He had seen many people like Yan Xiu who knew how to put on airs at a young age.

It's nothing more than first gaining a good reputation with medical skills, then attracting the attention of dignitaries in the city, and then seeking benefits from it.

He was already familiar with this routine and had seen it countless times.

"What are you doing?"

Yan Xiu looked at the man and said calmly.

"I am the seventh below, and I am here on the orders of the young master to invite Doctor Yan to your house for a chat."

Although Fang Qi's words seemed respectful, he did not put on any show of respect. It was obvious that he was just being polite.

In his opinion, people like Yan Xiu were not worthy of even the slightest respect from him.

"Fang family?"

Yan Xiu frowned when he heard this, with a puzzled look on his face.

Yan Xiu was totally indifferent to the complicated relationships in Yong'an City.

No matter how powerful you are, no matter how influential the people behind you are, they are nothing but a bunch of nobody in front of Yan Xiu.

Fang Qi couldn't help showing a look of displeasure on his face when he saw this.

A mere doctor dares to be so presumptuous. He really doesn't know what is good for him.

Seeing that Yan Xiu seemed to know nothing about the Fang family, Xie Shucheng hurriedly reminded him softly.

"Brother Yan, the Hongjing Chamber of Commerce in Yong'an City is owned by the Fang family. It is one of the best chambers of commerce in the city."

After hearing this, Yan Xiu showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Although compared to the three families of Liu, Wu and Wang, the Fang family may seem insignificant.

However, in Yong'an City, the Fang family's Hongjing Chamber of Commerce plays a very important role.

Nearly half of the shops in the city have close financial and merchandise transactions with Fang's Hongjing Chamber of Commerce. Their business is booming and their reputation is well-known.

"I wonder why Mr. Fang wants me to come forward?"

Fang Qi suppressed his displeasure upon hearing this.

"Of course I want you to see a doctor. Could it be that I want you to be my master?"

"Looking at your thin arms and legs, I'm afraid you don't even have a little bit of cultivation, right?"

He looked Yan Xiu up and down, his eyes full of disdain becoming even more intense.

No matter how you look at it, Yan Xiu is just an ordinary mortal.

Apart from his decent medical skills, he did not have any aura of a warrior.

In this world, a person with medical skills may be able to save lives and win a good reputation.

However, without strong military force, you will eventually become a tool used by others.

"As long as you can heal the young master's injury, the silver will naturally be yours."

As he spoke, Fang Qi took out another silver note worth one hundred taels.

Xie Shucheng held the banknote in trembling hands, so excited that he was speechless.

He turned to look at Yan Xiu, his eyes full of desire.

No matter how stupid Yan Xiu is, he would not be stupid enough to go against money.

Even if she could live a life away from worldly affairs, her two children, Xie Shucheng and Lin Jianqiu, were at the stage of growing up.

As the saying goes, the little brat will eat the old man to death.

Since they were helping out in his own clinic, they would definitely not starve.

"Then please wait for a moment, Your Excellency, and let me prepare."

After saying that, he turned and went into the back hall.

Soon, Yan Xiu followed Fang Qi out of the clinic carrying the medicine box.

...

East of the city.

As the family in power behind the Hongjing Chamber of Commerce in Yong'an City, the Fang family naturally lives in this place where the powerful and wealthy gather.

Compared with Yuelu's mansion, the Fang family's mansion is even more noble and extraordinary, and every part of it reveals luxury and grandeur.

After following Fang Qi in the mansion for a while, they finally arrived at an attic.

Fang Qi signaled Yan Xiu to stop, then walked forward and knocked gently on the door.

After getting the promise, he came to Yan Xiu, his tone full of warning.

"Don't look around after you go in. Just answer whatever the young master asks. Don't be so smart and talk too much."

"Remember, the people in this attic are the most high-ranking people you will ever meet in your life. Whether you can seize this opportunity and rise to prominence depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

Yan Xiu just smiled faintly at this.

Although he didn't take Fang Qi's words to heart, he still pretended to do so.

"Thank you."

Fang Qi looked at him deeply, then turned and left.

Yan Xiu knocked lightly on the door, and a voice came from inside.

"Come in."

Although the voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by Yan Xiu, indicating that this person's realm was not low.

After pushing open the door, the room was filled with darkness, as if it had swallowed up all the light.

Only in the center was there a beam of strong light projected from the roof, illuminating a small area, like a bright lamp in the dark night.

The strong light was particularly dazzling in the darkness, making people squint their eyes.

"Come up the stairs."

At this moment, the voice sounded faintly again.

Yan Xiu looked around.

I saw that this huge hall was extremely empty, without any furniture, and seemed extremely deserted.

Beside him, a wooden spiral staircase stood quietly, like a winding dragon, running through the entire attic.

Yan Xiu went straight up the stairs and came to a room.

As soon as I entered the room, I smelled an extremely strong aroma of medicinal herbs.

In the room, a man in white who was leaning against the window turned around slowly after hearing Yan Xiu's movement.

He is handsome and tall, but his face is a little pale.

"Are you the famous Doctor Yan in this city?"

The man in white asked softly, with a hint of weakness in his voice.

Yan Xiu nodded.

He could see that the man in front of him had suffered serious injuries.

Although he seemed fine on the surface, there was a chaotic energy surging in his body.

"I invited you to the Fang Mansion today because I want you to see if you can heal my injury."

This person is Fang Yan, the eldest son of the Fang family.

He didn't say any polite words, but went straight to the point.
