Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

Chapter 14 I'm Here to Watch the Fun

"This old man is truly amazing!"

"That's right. Such a serious injury was healed in just a few strokes."

"Maybe this old man can cure my long-standing illness. I must go find him and have him take a look at me."

"This is a cough syrup, it tastes sweet. It's much cheaper than the one in the security pharmacy." A young man who had just bought medicine praised it.

"My child had a fever a few days ago. I got several prescriptions from the Anbao Pharmacy but they didn't work. I bought some antipyretic medicine here and drank it at home, and the fever went away immediately." Another person immediately echoed.

"These drugs are effective, patients can also receive less penalties, and most importantly, they can save a lot of money on medical consultations."

They are all ordinary people. If they have a headache or fever and go to the security clinic, they will have to pay for the consultation and the medicine, and it will cost a lot of money for one trip.

Seeing that the medicine here was not only inexpensive but also most importantly effective, everyone rushed here to buy it.

He also helped spread the word, and word spread from one person to ten. From ten to a hundred. Instantly, a large number of people came to the old man's stall, and it was immediately crowded.

The Anbao Pharmacy next door was deserted for a while.

The owner of the pharmacy stared at the stall not far from the door, his beard raised in anger. "Where did this charlatan come from? How dare he openly steal our business?"

"Hmph, they're just selling some cheap, cheap medicines." Doctor Chen, who was in charge of the clinic, crossed his arms and looked at it with disdain.

"Doctor Chen, we can't let him go on like this. Our pharmacy isn't open yet today." The shopkeeper unfolded the account book, which had no words on it.

"Let me go meet this old man." Doctor Chen stood up, shook off his green gown, and walked out of the clinic.

He decided to meet the old man in person to see what he was capable of.

All the medicines on the old man's stall were sold out today. He had a lot of steel plates in his pockets and was in a very good mood for the moment. He even forgot about the unhappiness caused by the young man just now.

"Anything else?" "Are you coming here tomorrow?"

There were also many people who did not buy medicine today and asked the old man.

"Old man, the way you treated injuries just now was really novel. I don't know if you really have the ability." Doctor Chen came to the old man's stall and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

The old man just smiled and ignored him.

Doctor Chen saw that the old man ignored him, and he became even angrier: "Humph, don't think that a temporary excitement can prove anything. Medical practice is not entirely based on gimmicks."

"Doctor Chen is just jealous of other people's medical skills!"

"I've consulted the old man, and his medicine is indeed effective. Doctor Chen, if you don't believe me, you can buy some medicine and try it at home."

Passersby don't tolerate him and just tell the truth.

"Since you support the old man so much, why don't we have a fair competition today?" Doctor Chen said loudly without getting angry.

The onlookers all knew Doctor Chen, and they all moved aside.

The old man glanced at Doctor Chen, ignored him, and packed up his stall.

"Old man, you don't dare to compete? Don't you know medical skills? Excuse me for being blunt, but if you don't know medical skills and sell medicine, it will be fatal if the medicine is not suitable for the disease. You are not saving people, you are harming them." Doctor Chen said confidently.

After hearing what he said, people who had just bought medicine felt that what they had in their hands was not medicine to cure diseases but poison.

Shen Wanqing in the crowd lowered her head and smiled, speechless at Mr. Chen's arbitrary decision.

He actually dared to question the old man's medical skills. When the old man was practicing medicine and saving people, this Doctor Chen was probably still acting like a spoiled child in his parents' arms.

"How do you want to compete?" The old man stroked his beard and became interested for a moment.

Doesn't he know that there are always people better than you? The best way to deal with such an arrogant person is to use your strength to make him shut up.

"Since you and I are both medical practitioners, let's be here and provide you with free medical treatment and prescription medicine. Then you can judge who has better medicine and whose medical skills are more advanced." Doctor Chen was full of confidence.

"If it's a competition, there will be winners and losers. What's the prize?" the old man said casually.

"If you lose today, you will never be allowed to sell medicine here. If you win, our clinic will not open from today on." In Doctor Chen's mind, the old man would never win, so he spoke with full confidence.

"I hope you keep your word." The old man's eyes changed, and his face became unfathomable.

"nature."

The pharmacy staff quickly brought out two tables and placed them on either side of the street, with the old man and Doctor Chen sitting on each side.

Although some people commented that the medicine prescribed by Doctor Chen was expensive and ineffective, he was a former imperial physician in the palace and was well-known and renowned.

Therefore, at the beginning, the people all flocked to Doctor Chen's table.

As for the old man, because of Dr. Chen's questioning, those who originally supported him began to waver, and for a while there was no one in front of his stall.

Some people in the crowd joined in the fun and someone started shouting, "Begin betting." Everyone placed their bets, and almost everyone placed their bets on Doctor Chen, almost believing that Doctor Chen would definitely win the competition.

The old man turned a blind eye to this and continued to sit there calmly, without a trace of panic on his face.

Shen Wanqing took off the purse from her waist and asked Jing'er to bet all the money on the old man.

She was the first and only person who would assume that the old man had won.

Seeing this, the old man glanced sideways slightly.

Shen Wanqing smiled at the old man.

Then he took Jing'er to the restaurant opposite. The window on the second floor of the restaurant could see everything clearly.

Shen Wanqing was just going up the stairs to the second floor when she stumbled and almost fell down. At this moment, a figure flashed by and caught her steadily.

"Thank you very much, sir..." Shen Wanqing calmed herself down, looked up, and saw that it was Du Zhijie. This was the second time he had saved her, and her heart was beating very fast.

When Du Zhijie saw that it was Shen Wanqing, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "It turns out to be Miss Shen, long time no see."

Shen Wanqing smiled politely: "Mr. Du, how are you?"

"Why are you here today?"

Shen Wanqing pointed at the competition outside and said, "I'm here to watch the fun."

Du Zhijie smiled gently: "You placed a bet too?"

Shen Wanqing was speechless for a moment. She felt embarrassed for a moment and quickly explained, "It just seemed interesting, so I thought I'd try my luck."

"oh.."

The two chatted briefly, and then Shen Wanqing said goodbye and went to the second floor first.

Seeing the shadow disappear around the corner of the second floor, Du Zhijie instructed the servant behind him, "Go and keep an eye on the competition over there. Report any developments at any time."

Shen Wanqing went up to the second floor, found a seat by the window, and sat down, eating pastries while watching the competition below.

At this moment, a handkerchief slipped down the stairs. Du Zhijie reached out to catch it. The handkerchief was embroidered with a bamboo leaf pattern and exuded a faint fragrance.
