After Fleeing, The Calamity Princess Consort Empties Her Enemy's Storehouse

Du Wanwan, a military doctor, overworked herself to death. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself branded a 'calamity star'—hated by everyone, facing a forced exodus, and expel...

Chapter 313: Doctor Du! Can a person survive if his stomach is cut open?

The shopkeeper could naturally think of what Liang could think of. He hesitated for a moment and returned the notebook to Du Wanwan.

"I can't make the decision on this. I have to ask the boss before I can give you an answer. But I don't think the boss will agree to your conditions."

"It doesn't matter." Du Wanwan stood up. "If I can't stay here, I'll find another place. As long as the script is good enough, I'll be a big hit in no time."

After saying that, he picked up the notebook and walked out of Changyuan Bookstore with Liang and Ye Tingyu.

Back in the carriage, Du Wanwan asked Liang: "Will Third Aunt be discouraged?"

Liang shook her head. "I won't do that. If it works, it's fine. If it doesn't, forget it. Anyway, I didn't lose anything. At most, I wasted some ink and paper."

"It's best if you think so." Du Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Liang would blame her for being too talkative. "One tael of silver per episode is really too much of a loss. I can't sell off the knowledge I have learned at a low price, and I can't sell off the hard work I have worked so hard for. In addition to Changyuan Bookstore, where else in the capital city collects storybooks?"

After thinking for a while, Liang pointed to the other end of the street, where there was a Fenglin Bookstore, which was much smaller than this one. It also had fewer storybooks and its business was worse than this one.

"It's okay, let's go and take a look."

Du Wanwan asked Liang to lead the way and went to the Fenglin Bookstore she mentioned.

The owner of Changyuan Bookstore didn't expect that Doctor Du would leave as soon as he said so. He thought that if he disagreed to collect the notebook, Doctor Du would take the initiative to change to the plan he proposed.

It was already very good to buy a volume for one tael of silver. There were basically four or five bookstores of all sizes in the capital, and they all followed this model.

I'm afraid no one would be willing to do it if they want to share the profits.

The bookstore actually took a big risk by buying out the book with one tael of silver and bearing the profit and loss by itself. However, their books would not be risky and should have a large profit margin, but unfortunately they could not reach an agreement.

If we go somewhere else, we may not be able to reach an agreement. Let’s wait and see! They will definitely come back.

Liang took Du Wanwan and Ye Tingyu to Fenglin Bookstore. It was indeed much smaller than Changyuan Bookstore, and it also had two floors. The layout was the same as Changyuan Bookstore, and there was not much difference.

The waiter was a teenager of about sixteen or seventeen years old. When he saw them, he was very enthusiastic: "Please come in!"

"I want to discuss business with your boss." Du Wanwan didn't want to waste time, so she went straight to the point.

"Okay! Please follow me." The waiter led them to the backyard and called to a woman in her thirties, "Madam Shopkeeper! Someone is looking for you."

The woman was sorting out the moldy books in the backyard. When she saw Du Wanwan and the others, she quickly stood up.

He wiped his hands, invited them into a room, and served them tea himself: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Du Wanwan looked at the woman and asked with a smile, "I want to discuss a deal with you. Can you make the decision?"

"this."

The woman hesitated for a moment, went to the inner room, and helped out a thin, pale man. The strange thing was that although the man was so thin that he could be blown away by a gust of wind, his belly was surprisingly big, like a woman who was five or six months pregnant.

Liang had never seen such a person before and was immediately shocked. If Ye Tingyu hadn't supported her, she would have fallen off the stool.

"You should talk to my husband about business! I am a woman and I am not very good at business."

Du Wanwan was a doctor, and she knew what was wrong with the patient as soon as she saw his appearance. She was sure that he either had schistosomiasis or had a tumor in his stomach.

If it was schistosomiasis it would be better, but if it was a tumor it would be troublesome.

The man was weak and spoke in a very weak voice: "What business do you want to discuss?"

"Let's not talk about that for now. Let me check your pulse first. I'm a doctor and I just came from Liangjun City."

"Liangjun City?"

"Liangjun City?"

Hearing these three words, the woman and the man were very surprised, especially the woman, who asked with red eyes: "Then do you know Doctor Du from Liang County? I heard that she is a miracle doctor? Has she come to the capital?"

Du Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Do you also know Doctor Du from Liangjun City?"

The man nodded slightly: "We went to the Yan family to inquire, and they said that the doctor who cured the general was named Du, and he opened a very famous clinic in Liang County City, called the People's Clinic."

The woman was afraid that the man would be tired, so she continued, "I sent someone to Liang County City earlier to ask Doctor Du to come to the capital to see my husband, but unfortunately they left and said they were going back to the capital.

I received the letter the day before yesterday and sent people to guard the city gate, but there is no news at all, and I don’t know whether Doctor Du has arrived in the capital.”

"We're here, we're here." Liang pointed at Du Wanwan, "This is Doctor Du from Liang County City."

"What?"

"Ah?" The woman was startled, looked at Du Wanwan, and asked incredulously, "You, you, you are really Doctor Du?"

"yes!"

As soon as Du Wanwan finished answering, the woman knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to her: "Doctor Du! Help! No one in Beijing can cure my husband's stomach. I beg Doctor Du to help and save my husband."

The man shouted at the side: "Guixiang! Don't be like this. Since Doctor Du came uninvited, it means that I am not destined to die. Go away and let Doctor Du check my pulse."

"oh oh!"

The female shopkeeper Guixiang quickly stood up and moved aside, supported her husband and placed his wrist on the table.

Du Wanwan sat down and took the patient's pulse without saying a word. After a moment, she changed her hand.

Then he made a request: "Can I see your belly?"

Although it looks like schistosomiasis on the surface, it is not the case judging from the pulse. It should be a tumor.

"Okay." Before the man could say anything, Guixiang agreed, "Go into the inner room. There is a couch in the inner room."

Liang: “????”

Wanwan! Are we here to discuss business? Why are you sick again?

Ye Tingyu said in a tone that he understood everything: "Aunt San! Let's sit down! Sister-in-law is a doctor who treats and saves lives. As long as there are patients, no matter who they are, she will go to save them without hesitation.

Even beggars begging in front of her, she would not despise them. This shopkeeper looks very ill. If he is not treated, he may not live long. "

Hearing this, Liang nodded slightly: "It doesn't matter, let's just sit down."

He picked up the tea and took a sip. He suddenly felt that he was lucky. Even though his property was confiscated, he was not exiled, but only demoted to a commoner.

The master and children are all around me. I am in good health, without any illness or disaster, and I can eat and sleep well.

This is already very good. She doesn't want to be rich, she just wants her family to live in peace. Even if it is hard or tiring, it doesn't matter.

In the room, Guixiang undressed the man, revealing his bulging belly covered with blue veins. Du Wanwan determined that he had a lipoma and had to be removed as soon as possible, otherwise his life would be in danger.

Du Wanwan glanced at Guixiang and the man and said, "You are right. There is a big tumor in the stomach. We must cut open the stomach and remove the tumor. If you agree, come to the west of the city to find me. If you disagree, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Guixiang was obviously a little scared, and asked tremblingly: "Doctor Du! Can a person survive if his stomach is cut open?"
