Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

at night.

After Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua lay down, he told them about Binbin's plans.

Pan Lianhua fully supported Binbin's decision, as she always felt that her son was working too hard at the hospital. Moreover, the decline of traditional Chinese medicine in recent years, with hospitals mostly adopting Western medical methods, made Binbin very unhappy.

Since I'm unhappy with my job, I might as well go out on my own.

after a few days.

Pan Lianhua gave two million yuan to her son without needing him to sign an IOU. In a mother's view, as long as her child behaved well, that was enough. She never intended for Binbin to repay the money.

With a large sum of money in hand, Binbin began looking for houses in the urban villages.

It doesn't need to be in a great location, but it must have a storefront, preferably two floors, with acupuncture treatments upstairs.

"Binbin, it would be great if we could buy the house. That way, we wouldn't be under so much pressure."

The initial investment for a traditional Chinese medicine clinic is not large, and there is no need to hire staff for the time being. So Liu Xuemei suggested to Binbin that they see if they could buy a house with a storefront.

Houses on collective land belonging to urban villages are definitely not an option; not only will they lack property rights, but they could also cause problems in the future.

However, there are still properties for sale around the urban village. The young couple took some time to visit many places and finally found a storefront they liked.

The house is relatively old, with a two-story layout and a small overall area. It's definitely enough for a clinic, and the interior could be renovated nicely; it's actually quite nice.

Binbin negotiated back and forth with the homeowner, who initially asked for 85 yuan, but he eventually won the deal for 79 yuan.

Next came the overall renovation. Since Binbin had to go to work, he asked someone to find a relatively reliable renovation company, which cost 11 yuan to complete.

Now he has all the furniture for the clinic, including a Chinese medicine cabinet, a consultation table, and a treatment bed. He is very satisfied with the renovation, and it was worth spending so much money.

Next, Binbin submitted his resignation to the hospital.

night.

Fang Wei had just finished eating when she received a call from Wu Tianming.

He was entrusted by Chu Fan to persuade Fang Wei not to let Binbin resign so impulsively. Many experts in the hospital had a good impression of Binbin, and everyone hoped that the young man could endure the loneliness and that things would get better in a few more years.

"Old Wu, the boy is determined to go out and make his way in the world, so let him go."

Fang Wei explained for a few minutes and then stated her position.

Wu Tianming certainly didn't care; if others didn't know, how could he not know? Binbin had studied under many famous teachers and was willing to work hard; there was no harm in him taking a chance.

"It's a pity that Principal Chu and the others think it's a shame. Well, since the child has his own ideas, let's not say anything more. I hope he can get what he wants."

The two then ended the call, and Fang Wei thought for a moment before calling Chu Fan to thank him.

Since things had come to this point, Chu Fan had nothing more to say. The two chatted for a while and then hung up.

Next, Fang Wei was busy with meetings all day, clarifying this year's profit-sharing standards and next year's work plans.

"Third Brother, it's been almost half a month. Let's go check on how Binbin's clinic renovation is going tomorrow. Are you free?"

Pan Lianhua has been relatively free these days. She makes a phone call to the factory every day when she has a spare moment, and does whatever she wants with the rest of her time.

After Fang Wei finished her work, she suggested going to Binbin's clinic.

"I have something to do tomorrow morning, let's go together in the afternoon."

Fang Wei nodded. If he hadn't been so busy lately, he would have gone to check it out long ago.

The next day.

After lunch, Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua went to Binbin's clinic.

Binbin isn't here; he won't be able to leave his job until after New Year's Day, and he still needs to go to work every day.

The small clinic is nicely decorated; the quality of the materials used is good, and the craftsmen are highly skilled. At the current pace, the renovation should be completed in about two weeks, after which we can open for business on an auspicious day.

"I must say, it actually looks pretty convincing."

Fang Wei couldn't help but praise Binbin when she heard that he had designed the entire layout himself.

Pan Lianhua chuckled to herself. Men are so stubborn; even though it was a compliment, they said it so awkwardly.

"That's good. I hope the clinic can do well."

Pan Lianhua also felt that her son was quite reliable in handling matters. After giving the other party 200 million yuan, Binbin did not squander the money and was careful with his money in every aspect.

She doesn't expect her son to earn much money; she just wants him to live up to his education.

Time flies.

The company announced its dividend plan for that year.

This round of dividends will be distributed at a rate of 7000 yuan per person, which can be considered as compensation for the previous round.

Last period, due to various reasons, the dividend standard was not increased, but this year the increase will be slightly larger. The notice was sent to all cooperatives, and the members were overjoyed.

Nowadays, annual dividends are a very important source of income for everyone, and this year's plan has been praised by all members.

This morning.

Fang Hongbin Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic officially opened, and a series of firecrackers went off, attracting the attention of many passersby.

However, most people lose interest upon seeing that it's a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, with only a few silently memorizing the location and perhaps visiting when needed. Currently, traditional Chinese medicine is generally declining in China, but the situation is much better in Guangdong, where a considerable number of people still believe in the teachings passed down from their ancestors.

Several of Chu Fan and Bin Bin's teachers and some classmates sent flower baskets, while Wu Tianming sent a flower basket and a banner.

Cai Tong and others also learned about this and came to join in the fun. Liu Xuemei and several close friends came to help, running around busily until noon.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua arrived early, as their older sister couldn't come; she and the nanny had to stay home to take care of the children.

As noon approached, the clinic gradually quieted down.

At this moment, three people walked in from outside. The first one, with white hair and a youthful face, was none other than Master Sun.

"Master, what brings you here? You didn't even call so I could have picked you up at the station."

Binbin was still busy on the second floor, while Fang Wei was sitting on the first floor and immediately saw the old Taoist priest.

He quickly got up and went over, greeting the group with a smile.

The two people who brought Master Sun were his grand-disciple. The three of them traveled from Chenzhou to Guangzhou by train and then took a taxi.

Binbin naturally informed Sun Daoren in advance about the opening of his clinic. Sun Daoren asked for a lot of details over the phone, but no one expected him to come.

"I'm not at the point where I can't walk yet. Besides, someone's taking me, so you don't think I'll get lost."

Master Sun chuckled. With his appearance, he could definitely attract many patients if he sat down in a clinic. After all, that's the common perception: the older a Chinese medicine practitioner is, the more valuable they are, especially since this old Taoist looked like a highly accomplished master.

"Come, come, sit down and rest for a while."

Fang Wei invited Sun Daoren and the others to sit down, and Pan Lianhua brought over tea and fruit.

A little while later, Binbin and Liu Xuemei ran downstairs.

"Grandpa Sun, what brings you here? It must be such a long and tiring journey."

Binbin felt sorry for Sun Daoren and complained about the old Taoist priest as soon as they met.

The old Taoist priest was not angry at all; on the contrary, he laughed heartily because of Binbin's concern.

“You are my last disciple. How could I not come to the clinic’s opening today? Not only did I come to visit, but I also plan to stay with you for a year and a half.”

Sun Daoren's purpose in coming all this way wasn't just to open the business; he came all this way primarily to support Binbin.

Depending on the actual situation, he will stay here for six months to a year.

"I couldn't be happier! The house is very spacious; you can stay as long as you like!"

This area isn't far from Binbin's home; it's only a 20-minute drive, so it's quite convenient.

Fang Wei was a little confused. He exchanged a glance with his wife and realized that Binbin was really amazing, managing to get the Taoist Sun, who was focused on cultivation, to come down the mountain again.

After returning to the mountain, Master Sun rarely came down. Unexpectedly, because Binbin opened a clinic, he actually planned to stay here for a year and a half.

To put it bluntly, even Fang Wei doesn't have that kind of face.

"Let's go, it's getting late, let's go eat together."

There were no guests at noon, only family members and a few people who came to help, so everyone went to a Cantonese restaurant.

The lineage of Master Sun is not part of the Quanzhen School, so there are fewer taboos. However, there are some dietary restrictions, which Fang Wei and his wife, as well as Binbin, are well aware of. They just need to be mindful when ordering food.

As they ate and chatted, Fang Wei, Binbin, and two of his classmates drank some alcohol, while the others drank juice.

“Binbin, I’ve decided to trust your skills, but you still look too young to easily gain the trust of patients. I’m planning to have someone at your acupuncture clinic, nothing more.”

Master Sun doted on Binbin. Even though he came to help, he still had to carefully explain his situation.

"Look at what you're saying, do you think I'm that unreasonable? But I have one request: you can't overwork yourself. You can only sit in the clinic for half a day at most each day; the rest of the time you still need to cultivate."

Binbin and Sun Daoren had endless things to talk about, while Pan Lianhua kept entertaining Liu Xuemei's friends.

Binbin had two close classmates present, and Fang Wei chatted with them from time to time.

After the meal, everyone else left, except for Binbin, Sun Daoren, and Fang Wei and his wife, who returned to the clinic.

Since opening today, not a single patient has come to our clinic.

"Binbin, you can't be impatient. As doctors, we only wish for a world free from illness and disaster, right?"

Master Sun was quite good at comforting people; he was afraid that Binbin would be anxious because no one came to the clinic.

"Master, you've said it well!"

Fang Wei gave the old Taoist priest face and cheered him on, which improved everyone's mood.

Later in the afternoon, a few people came, mostly with minor ailments like headaches and fevers.

Binbin carefully examined the patients and prescribed medicine, while Sun Daoren sat calmly to the side. The patients all felt that the old Daoist was the soul of the clinic.

There's no way around it; his experienced and skillful appearance perfectly matches the image of a legendary doctor in people's minds.

However, they all had minor illnesses like colds or flu, and didn't care who took their pulse.

After finishing with these patients, the clinic's first day of business ended, and the family drove home. (End of Chapter)
