Chapter 17 Conflict arises!
The next day.

Li's herbal medicine shop.

As soon as the shop opened, an anxious middle-aged man rushed in. On his back was a pale-faced young man who had been unconscious for who knows how long.

"Doctor Wang, Doctor Wang, please take a look at my son. He was hit by a wild boar and flew out and hit a small tree. He has been unconscious for six or seven hours."

Human life is at stake. The old man, who was called Doctor Wang, had some medical ethics. He immediately called the visitor, put the boy down first, and then pulled open his coat. While checking, he asked, "Was he rubbed by the wild boar, or was he knocked away directly? Explain clearly, otherwise if you use the wrong medicine, your son's life will be in danger, and you can't blame me."

"My son, he tried to dodge but failed to get away. He was still hit by the wild boar. He flew out and hit a tree." The middle-aged man was threatened by Doctor Wang and was worried about his son's life, so he stuttered and told the truth.

"Hmph! He was knocked away by a wild boar, or was scratched." Doctor Wang carefully examined the boy's body and found no obvious external injuries. This made him frown. He put one hand on the boy's pulse and felt a weak beat.

He flipped the boy's eyelids again, shook his head, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said, "There is no obvious external injury. Your son has injured his internal organs. His pulse is extremely weak. I have a few prescriptions here. You may try them, but the herbs used are extremely precious. You..."

Doctor Wang looked the middle-aged man up and down. He seemed to be dressed like an ordinary hunter, and the implication of his words was obvious.

After all, Li’s herbal medicine shop is not a charity.

If they don't have money, they won't prepare medicine for the patients.

Also, because too many people default on their debts, you could buy on credit before, but now you can’t; you must have cash.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, looked at the young man lying on the couch, and took out six or seven taels of silver from his pocket: "This is the money I saved for my son to marry a wife. Do you think it's enough?"

Doctor Wang glanced at the silver in his hand and shook his head: "Your son is too ill. The herbs used, just one of which is several decades of ginseng, need a full three qian of it. I'm afraid your little money is not enough, right?"

As soon as Doctor Wang said this, the shop assistants also ran over.

"Can you save my son first? I will find a way to get the rest of the money. I beg you, Doctor Wang, please save my son." The middle-aged man's face was full of anxiety. The strong man even cried out. He knelt on the ground with a thud and begged without any dignity.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

"I am just a doctor working in the Li's herbal medicine shop. Here, this is the prescription. I'll write it out for you."

"But you have to go talk to the shopkeeper about getting the medicine. It's no use begging me."

Doctors are kind-hearted, and Doctor Wang cared about his own face, so he had to open the prescription and put the blame on the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was not stupid either. He signaled the two servants in the shop with his eyes.

The two servants looked at each other and realized that they couldn't refuse, so they went forward together.

At this time, the middle-aged man completely collapsed and lay on the ground wailing: "Doctors are kind-hearted, doctors are kind-hearted, can't you save my son first?"

"I am still in my prime, I can go into the mountains to hunt, and I will definitely pay back the money I owe."

"I beg you, please save my son first, please save my son first."

Faced with the middle-aged man's pleading, the two servants sneered.

"You said you could pay it back, so you can pay it back?"

"Li Si from Toad Village said the same thing before, but now we can't even find him."

"And Liu Laoliu from Liujia Village, we were kind enough to give him medicine to treat his wife, but what happened?"

"It doesn't matter to him that his wife is dead. If Yang Yan has the guts, just kill him. He will never return the money."

"If you dare to act like this again, don't blame us for being ruthless." The two servants rolled up their sleeves, looked at the clothes of the people in front of them, and even took out knives to threaten them.

The reason they did this was obviously because they had practiced it before.

"Alas, the world is going downhill, the world is going downhill."

"The person has been carried to the shop, but you just stand there and watch him die without helping him. Isn't that too heartless?"

"Who said it wasn't true? You're just a good young man, are you going to watch him die?"

"What are you saying? The person who owed me money before didn't pay me back. I'm afraid of that."

"But no matter what, a doctor has a kind heart. You can't just stand by and watch someone die without helping, right?"

"We are all miserable people."

The people who came to see the doctor, including those standing outside the shop, all shook their heads and sighed. Huyou seemed to remember something and hurriedly reminded him, "Didn't a new Ye's herbal medicine shop open across the street yesterday when firecrackers were set off?" "My dear brother, Li's herbal medicine shop didn't help. You might as well try Ye's herbal medicine shop. Maybe they allow credit and can save your son's life."

"There's a new herbal medicine shop in town?" The middle-aged man was delighted when he heard this. He quickly picked up the young man on the couch. Before leaving, he turned back and said angrily, "Doctors are kind-hearted. If you don't save the dying today, you will be punished in the future."

"Hmph!" The shopkeeper sneered when he saw this, thinking that Ye's herbal medicine shop must have invited a little girl from somewhere, saying that she was a female doctor from Wenyuan City, but he had never heard of her before.

What Master Ye? After all, he is just a young boy whose hair hasn't even grown out yet.

In his opinion, he was probably tricked by someone.

Their Li's herbal medicine shop has been in business for three generations and has experienced almost a hundred years of experience. How could it go bankrupt so easily?

"Save my son, I beg you, save my son." The middle-aged man ran to Ye's herbal medicine shop without stopping. Just in case, he still held the prescription in his hand.

As soon as he stepped into the shop, he put his son on the bamboo chair without saying anything: "Female doctor, I beg you, you must save my son. I only have this one son. Without him, I will let down my ancestors."

Hu Lingwei was startled by the sudden scene, but then quickly calmed down: "Brother, what exactly happened to your son? Please tell me in detail."

The middle-aged man anxiously recounted what had just happened, handed over the prescription, and looked at the not-too-old girl in front of him whose face was hidden by a veil.

Obviously, the middle-aged man didn't trust her medical skills.

Seeing this, Hu Lingwei was not angry. Instead, she placed her hand on the boy's pulse and carefully looked at the prescription for a few times: "The prescription they gave you is not bad, but the effect of 50-year-old and 60-year-old ginseng is not much different. And these herbs can be simplified."

"There are at least five or six medicinal herbs in it. It's okay to add them, and removing them will not affect the efficacy. I don't know if the other party's medical skills are not good, or..." Hu Lingwei shook her head. She had heard about such things a long time ago, but she didn't expect to encounter them the first time she practiced medicine in Qingshan Town.

"I may not have enough money on me, only a little over six taels. But don't worry, I will definitely pay you back the rest in the future." At this moment, the middle-aged man was very nervous, fearing that the Ye's herbal medicine shop would also turn him away like the Li's herbal medicine shop.

"Save the people first, and we'll talk about the money later." Gu Lingwei smiled slightly, then unpacked her bag, took out a few silver needles, and pierced several acupoints on the boy's head and arms.

After careful diagnosis and treatment, the boy slowly woke up.

"father!"

"You woke up, finally woke up, you scared your dad to death."

"My child, if you die, how can I explain to my ancestors?"

The father and son hugged each other and cried, and the people outside the door couldn't help but applaud.

"Tsk! I doubted the medical skills of the female doctor before, but now it seems that she is really a miracle doctor who can bring people back to health."

"Who says it's not true? These few injections brought the dead back to life. Your medical skills are truly extraordinary."

"I think he is even better than Doctor Wang from Li's Herbal Medicine Shop."

Just at this moment, some people noticed the sign on the door.

"Anyone who comes to my Ye's herbal medicine shop for consultation and prescription medicine will be given a few eggs?"

"Do you give me free eggs when I see a doctor?"

"Is this true? After I get the medicine, I can take a few eggs home for free to replenish my body?"

Ordinary people also have their own way of survival. Now it is confirmed that Ye's herbal medicine shop is not worse than the so-called Li's herbal medicine shop, and they even give away eggs.

In that case, why should I go to your unreasonable, arrogant and overbearing Li’s herbal medicine shop?
From now on, your Li family will no longer be the only one in control of Qingshan Town.

"what?"

"You said that little girl brought the young man back to life with just a few injections."

"How can this be?"

The owner of Li's herbal medicine shop turned pale upon hearing the news.

Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing his parents.

If that's the case, don't blame him for using any means necessary.

"You young man named Ye, just wait and see what happens to you."
