"Cough cough... I'm sorry, I got a little too excited." A little tea splashed onto Chen He, and he quickly apologized.

Luckily, he only took a small sip, otherwise he would have washed Chen He's face.

Chen He looked at Li Chu speechlessly: "Brother Li, what are you getting so excited about? He's sending his wife abroad to study."

Li Chu stood up, grabbed a rag, and wiped the desk.

"No, no, I'm just struck by how much this man loves his wife."

Sigh, it's so hard to believe I'm saying this!

"Hey, you know what, Brother Li, this guy really dotes on his wife like crazy. He's an absolutely perfect man," Chen He said, giving a thumbs up.

"Alright, stop joking with me. Is he really planning to sell, or is he still considering it?"

"If you really intend to sell, you'll be clear about it, but..."

"But what?"

"He wants US dollars."

How much do you want?

"Two thousand." Chen He held up his right index and middle fingers, making a two.

"Ha, why doesn't he just snatch it? That way it'd be faster."

Goodness, two thousand US dollars can be exchanged for twenty thousand to twenty-four thousand on the black market. His shop is definitely going to be valuable in the future.

But that's in the future; it's not worth that much money now.

No wonder he can't sell them.

“I also think his price is too high, Brother Li, what price do you think is acceptable? I'll go and negotiate with him again.”

At this moment, Li Chu hesitated again. He didn't know whether he should buy it or not, since he had already left quite a lot for his two children.

Leaving aside the houses, just considering each person's 0.5% share, who knows how much the dividends alone will amount to in a few years.

“I can pay him directly in US dollars, but no more than a thousand. I won’t take anything more than that.”

After thinking about it, he still quoted a price. They'd practically offered it to him; it wouldn't be right to refuse.

"Hey, Luggage Bro, I'll go talk to him about your bottom price. If that doesn't work, then forget it."

“Chen He, you’re a government official with a formal job. You should do less of this kind of brokerage business in the future.”

“Brother Li, to be honest, his parents went to the farm under my management back then, and I just wanted to help him out.”

Are you sure this is helping him?

At this moment, Li Chu actually felt a pang of pity.

But then he thought, if he didn't want it, someone else might snatch it up. So he figured he might as well keep it for himself.

"What I'm saying is, it's best to do this kind of thing less often in the future."

"Okay, I promise I'll listen to my brother."

Looking at Chen He's shameless behavior, Li Chu shook his head helplessly.

"Brother Li, I'll head over there first. I have a lot of things to take care of too. Please keep an eye on my nephew and niece-in-law."

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'll go ahead now."

"Thanks, Brother Li. I'll treat you to Tan Family Cuisine at Xu Damao's place another day."

After seeing Chen He off, Li Chu put on a white coat and went to the outpatient hall in front.

Li Wenxuan and Duan Jianing had already cleaned the consultation room.

"Senior brother, have you been here all by yourself before?"

Duan Jianing felt like she was going through a plasmolysis from jealousy.

This treatment is too good! She has been learning traditional Chinese medicine from her father since she was a child, for more than ten years now.

I've never actually taken a patient's pulse before.

But they have their own private consultation rooms even in such a large hospital.

The differences between people are simply too great.

“How could it be me alone? I don’t even have independent prescription authority. Teacher Li is here too. When he’s not here, you have to go to Director Zhao of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department next door.”

"So you've seen a lot of cases already?"

"It's alright. Because I'm so young, many patients are worried about me. Sometimes they come in, but then they leave to see someone else."

Speaking of this, Li Wenxuan felt helpless. Being a doctor is a profession that requires a lot of experience.

It's the same whether it's Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine.

However, because you are young, patients are not at ease with you, and the senior doctors in the department are also not at ease entrusting patients to you.

But if you don't get started, you'll never accumulate experience.

The traditional Chinese medicine approach is slightly better, since it only involves taking your pulse, and then you can share your thoughts with your instructor, who will then prescribe a formula based on your feedback.

If your mentor thinks there's a problem or doesn't agree with your approach, they can simply stop using your method. But no matter what, you'll still gain some experience.

Unless you're unlucky enough to run into a teacher who's too lazy to teach you.

Western medicine, especially surgery, requires hands-on practice of performing surgeries.

If they don't let you do it, they don't let you do it. But if you don't let a young doctor do it, where will he get surgical experience? Just by looking?

There isn't a comprehensive video teaching system available now; you can't even see clearly if you stand next to someone.

"Senior brother, are those two people at the door here to see Teacher Li for medical treatment?"

"I think so."

"Can we invite them in first and take a look?" Duan Jianing seemed eager to try, and she could hardly contain her urge to do so.

Li Wenxuan put down the book in his hand, looked up at his junior sister, and wondered why she was so excited.

"If Teacher Li wants us to see him, he will explain it clearly to the patient and his family. If he hasn't explained it, then we have to wait for him to come over. Please be patient, you will not miss your chance to take the call."

"Sigh~" Duan Jianing sighed after hearing this, and slumped listlessly onto the table.

“Senior brother, I’ve been learning traditional Chinese medicine from my father since I was a child, for more than ten years, but I haven’t actually treated anyone in a real sense yet.”

"So how did you get through your internship?"

"Don't even mention it," Duan Jianing waved her hand and said, "Our internship is at a military hospital in our area, but that hospital isn't open to the public at all. There are only a handful of military patients every day, and most of them have sprains and bruises. What can we do?"

...

Li Wenxuan looked at his cheap junior sister with pity. She was indeed quite pitiful. She had studied traditional Chinese medicine for so long, but had no use for it. No wonder she was in such a hurry.

Just as he was about to say something, the curtain of the consultation room was lifted, and Wenxuan saw his father walk in, followed by the two people who had been sitting at the door.

Hello, Teacher Li!

Li Wenxuan and Duan Jianing quickly stood up to greet them.

"Um"

Li Chu nodded, sat down in the chair Wen Xuan had just been sitting in, and then pointed to the stool opposite him, asking Chen Zhongguo and Mu Fang to sit down.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Wenxuan and Duan Jianing stood obediently to the side, listening quietly.

"Dean Li, these are some things from our previous examinations." Chen Zhongguo took a bunch of things out of his bag and put them on the table.

"The doctors at Peking Union Medical College Hospital said my wife has bilateral fallopian tube blockage, but she has taken a lot of Chinese and Western medicine over the years, but it has not worked at all."
