A peasant girl travels through time with a hospital, rising to become an empress.
Chapter 136 I Want Guangjuxuan
The next day, Nie Qianqian exchanged her experiences on childbirth with Granny Huang and Old Master Fu. Granny Huang and Old Master Fu benefited greatly, and Nie Qianqian also gained something. As for Aunt Cui, she bid farewell to Zhao Xuanmu and left early in the morning.
Old Fu exclaimed sincerely, "Dr. Qian's medical skills are indeed superb. Some of the methods you mentioned were completely new to me. It was truly worthwhile to come to Fulin County and meet Dr. Qian."
Granny Huang also gained a lot. She still needed to digest what Nie Qianqian had said. She was originally a cold and indifferent person who did not like to smile, but because of the previous conflict with Doctor Qian, she was afraid that Doctor Qian would misunderstand her attitude, so she always forced a smile when facing Doctor Qian.
Nie Qianqian really didn't want to upset Granny Huang, but Granny Huang's forced smile...
That was a good laugh, but don't laugh like that next time.
Old Master Fu: "When I return to the provincial capital this time, I will recommend Dr. Qian to the Medical Association together with Granny Huang."
Director Zhang smiled and said, "Don't forget to make it clear that it comes from the Fulin County branch of Jishetang."
All doctors in the Xuanhu Medical Association are registered and recorded as coming from their respective clinics. If a doctor joins the Xuanhu Medical Association, his clinic's reputation will be enhanced, which is also a result of his achievements as the clinic's director.
Old Fu nodded with a smile, "Of course, of course. Director Zhang is very fortunate to be able to recruit doctors like Dr. Qian into Jishetang."
Director Zhang stood up straight, stroking his beard with considerable pride.
He had a keen eye back then, overcoming all opposition to invite Nie Qianqian to join Jishetang. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was Nie Qianqian's mentor, hehe.
Previously, Director Zhang respected Nie Qianqian because of her young age, but he still maintained a certain elder-like demeanor in front of her. However, after this consultation at the Zhao residence, he now treats Nie Qianqian on the same level as himself.
Even Aunt Cui wanted to become his apprentice, and he was someone who could instruct Granny Huang and Old Master Fu. How could he put on airs in front of Nie Qianqian?
After the exchange concluded, the doctors bid farewell to Zhao Xuanmu.
Zhao Xuanmu met separately with Aunt Cui, Granny Huang, and Old Man Fu to express his gratitude and pay them. Finally, it was Nie Qianqian's turn.
Zhao Xuanmu's attitude was completely different from when Nie Qianqian first entered the manor. The politeness at the first meeting was mostly just formalities, but now it was genuine respect, even with a hint of ingratiation.
Zhao Xuanmu: "Dr. Qian's medical skills are truly remarkable; Wanwan was actually able to get out of bed today."
Nie Qianqian: "Yes, your wife will probably experience pain when getting out of bed and exercising within the next seven days, but she must not stay in bed because she is afraid of the pain. That would be detrimental to her recovery."
Doctors will require patients to get out of bed and move around 24 hours after a cesarean section to promote gastrointestinal motility and reduce adhesions and complications.
Zhao Xuanmu nodded, "I'll do whatever Doctor Qian says."
Zhao Xuanmu was amazed. If other doctors had finished delivering a baby, they would have told the mother to rest in bed and not to move around. But Dr. Qian's treatment method was to let the mother get out of bed and walk around. It was really strange.
Zhao Xuanmu expressed his sincere gratitude, saying, "If it weren't for Doctor Qian, Wanwan's life would have been in grave danger, and the child would likely have been in peril as well. I am deeply grateful for Doctor Qian's great kindness. However, I was in a hurry and acted inappropriately, failing to discuss the consultation fee with Doctor Qian beforehand."
He invited three women, including Granny Huang, from the provincial capital. The consultation fees for all of them were agreed upon in advance. However, Doctor Qian was only there to make up the numbers, and the consultation fees were not discussed in advance.
Nie Qianqian: "I'm afraid that Master Zhao won't be willing to part with what I want."
Zhao Xuanmu was slightly taken aback, secretly thinking to himself that this Doctor Qian had unlimited potential in the future. Since he intended to befriend Doctor Qian, he could not only look at the immediate benefits. He would do his best to satisfy Doctor Qian's demands for whatever amount of silver he wanted.
Zhao Xuanmu asked, "How much silver does Doctor Qian want?"
Nie Qianqian: "What I want is not money."
Zhao Xuanmu: "If it's not silver, then what is it?"
Nie Qianqian was direct and to the point: "I want Guangjuxuan!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuanmu jumped up from his stool. "What does Doctor Qian want, Guangjuxuan?!"
Guangjuxuan is a business owned by the Zhao family. The earliest branch was opened in the capital city by Zhao Xuanmu's great-grandfather. Later, it continued to expand to various provincial capitals. Small places would never be entered. If it weren't for his special status, he would never have allowed it to be opened in a place like Fulin County.
The recipes for the food sold at Guangjuxuan have been refined over decades and are now highly praised. If a member of the Zhao family can open a Guangjuxuan, it means they have a golden goose that lays golden eggs. Every member of the Zhao family wants to get one, so they compete openly and secretly, and brothers fight amongst themselves.
Guangjuxuan in Fulin County may not be as profitable as those in the provincial capital or Beijing, but because there is less competition there, the money it earns each month is still considerable.
Although Doctor Qian had done him a great favor, Zhang Kai's request for Guangjuxuan was far too outrageous.
Suppressing his displeasure, Zhao Xuanmu forced a smile and explained, "It's not that I'm stingy, but Guangjuxuan is a property of my family and cannot be transferred to someone else to operate."
Nie Qianqian: "Master Zhao, you've misunderstood. I don't want the Guangjuxuan restaurant to be transferred to me; I just want the location of this restaurant."
She investigated the Zhao residence last night, but instead of finding the jade pendant, she managed to eavesdrop and glean some information.
This Zhao Xuanmu is not an outer disciple of the Zhao family, but the biological son of the Zhao clan patriarch, albeit the son of his second wife.
The current wife of the Zhao clan chief is his third wife. His first two wives died of illness. His first wife gave birth to a son and a daughter. His son, Zhao Xuanze, was the eldest son of the Zhao family, but he died unexpectedly three years ago when he was robbed by bandits while on a business trip.
Thus, Zhao Xuanmu became the eldest son in the family. His third wife was very fertile and gave birth to two sons and two daughters. The eldest son, Zhao Xuanhui, was eight years younger than Zhao Xuanmu.
Zhao Xuanmu and Zhao Xuanhui, one being the eldest son and the other the legitimate son, were both naturally candidates for the next clan leader. However, with the support and assistance of Madam Zhao, Zhao Xuanhui constantly suppressed Zhao Xuanmu, causing Zhao Xuanmu's power in the capital to weaken. He simply could not compete with Zhao Xuanhui. In addition, Zhao Xuanze died unexpectedly three years ago, so Zhao Xuanmu took the initiative to transfer out of the capital and come to a remote place like Fulin County. This was to show his attitude, temporarily avoid the limelight, and had given up the struggle for the clan leader position.
He had already given up hope, but Zhao Xuanhui had been married for so many years without having any children, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction in the clan. In addition, the clan leader's health was deteriorating, and the clan elders were wavering. This time, Hu Wanwan's childbirth was a good opportunity to return to the capital.
Upon learning this news, Nie Qianqian deduced that Zhao Xuanmu would soon return to the capital, and Guangjuxuan would have to be run by a member of the Zhao family. If he returned to the capital, Guangjuxuan would probably have to close down and be sold off.
In the bustling area of Fulin County, there was a huge three-story corner tower. She had her eye on it the first time she saw it. If she wanted to open a restaurant in the future, this would be the best choice!
