Chapter 38 Seeking Medicine



After leaving Mao Ling's office, Fang Qingdai went straight to the medicine sales area without any delay.

Fang Qingdai currently has points on hand, and she just received more than 3,000 points from Jing Yi's subordinates today, so she can easily afford the A-grade potion.

A Grade A potion currently costs 520 points. Fang Qingdai thought about how Jing Yi had held his own despite his injuries today, and how he would wait for her to return. She thought she would get him one too.

If Jingyi were in better condition today, Wang Fang's family wouldn't have had the chance to act so recklessly!

But Fang Qingdai quickly remembered her time-travel skill and changed her words: "An A-grade potion!"

You could let Qingluan drink it all and then revert back to the source.

Just like with the nutrient solution, Fang Qingdai has been able to trace back using the nutrient solution tubes she left behind, and hasn't bought any new nutrient solution yet.

When the staff at the pharmacy window heard that someone wanted to buy Grade A medicine, they looked up at Fang Qingdai with some surprise.

"There are no more slots available for Grade A potions this month. Why don't you wait until next month? Uh... if you're lucky, you might be able to get one next month."

The staff were quite polite; after all, people who can afford Grade A potions must have some means.

Fang Qingdai's face darkened, and a sense of powerlessness rose in her heart.

In the wasteland, the level of medical care is really too backward!

The basic medical care system is inadequate, and now it can only be sustained by the abilities of healing-type ability users, but healing-type ability users are very rare, and two of them went missing a few days ago!

How many people have died from lack of access to medicine because they couldn't afford it?

She had no power to change anything now, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "Then take a B-grade..."

"Hey, sis!" Xiao Mao interrupted Fang Qingdai in time.

He winked at Fang Qingdai, then pointed upstairs.

Fang Qingdai raised her eyebrows, but a little hesitation lingered in her heart.

I've already bothered Xiao Mao's aunt once, and she seemed quite impatient with me.

Would it be better to do it again?

But that hesitation only lasted a second. After glancing at Qingluan, who looked pained in her arms, Fang Qingdai gritted her teeth and shamelessly followed Xiao Mao upstairs again.

The office door was gently pushed open a crack, and Xiao Mao's round head peeked in quietly: "Auntie~~"

Mao Ling screamed in fright and grabbed a water glass, throwing it at him.

"Ouch!" Xiao Mao couldn't dodge in time and was hit squarely on the head by the water cup. He screamed and turned around. Fang Qingdai saw him covering his head with tears in his eyes.

"Auntie! You're murdering your own nephew!"

Xiao Mao couldn't stop her tears from flowing, which made the fierce Mao Ling feel a moment of guilt.

"Why are you acting so suspiciously? Is it appropriate for you to be sneaking around like that?"

Mao Ling cursed, regaining her composure, and then asked irritably, "What are you doing back here again?"

Little Mao, forgetting all about thinking, grinned and moved closer to Mao Ling, grabbing her arm and shaking it back and forth: "Auntie~"

"Get out if you're not going to talk!!" Mao Ling, unable to bear it any longer, smacked Xiao Mao on the head, making matters worse for Xiao Mao, who burst into tears again!

Fang Qingdai couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she had to speak up and interrupt the love-hate relationship between the aunt and nephew.

"Dr. Mao, the pharmacy said there are no more slots available for Grade A medicine this month. I wanted to ask if you have any... internal slots that I could get?"

Fang Qingdai said sincerely, "Don't worry, I'll pay double for the medicine!"

It's not that Fang Qingdai is stupid and rich, rushing to give out more points.

This medicine is indeed very precious; you can't even get a spot in line. If someone were to give up an internal spot, what a huge favor that would take.

It's important to know that anyone who can afford to pay for Grade A potions is no small figure. If Mao Ling had Grade A potions, she could easily make a connection by selling them to anyone.

Fang Qingdai knew very well that she was just an insignificant nobody in the shantytown, not enough to warrant the respect of a healing-type ability user.

If you don't want to save face, you'll pay. Businessmen never resist offering discounts or acting as intermediaries; they only care about the value of the product.

Anyway, as long as she gets an A-grade potion, Fang Qingdai can rewind time on her own, so she won't lose money no matter how much she pays double.

But who would have thought that even though Mao Ling was slightly surprised to hear about the double price, she still shook her head and refused: "I don't have any spots, no matter how many points I have."

"Impossible!" Xiao Mao immediately retorted, his neck stiff. "I clearly saw two Grade A potions locked in the safe in your room!"

Mao Ling's face turned green!

She glared angrily at Xiao Mao, looking like she was about to jump up and beat her nephew up at any moment!

Fang Qingdai was speechless; she was worried for Xiao Mao.

That nephew of his is so annoying, I would have beaten him eight hundred times over if it were me!

Mao Ling was slightly embarrassed when she was exposed, but she still shook her head: "I need those two Grade A potions, I can't give them away."

She looked at Fang Qingdai and said, "This girl's injury isn't urgent. We can stabilize her condition with a Grade B medicine and she'll recover in about a week. There's no need to use a Grade A medicine."

Mao Ling inwardly cursed herself for having such an itchy mouth!

Earlier, she saw how nervous her nephew was about the two sisters and thought that her nephew and the older sister had something going on.

In families like theirs, there are many men with impure motives who want to climb the social ladder.

So Mao Ling deliberately mentioned Grade A medicine to see the other party's reaction.

After all, it's not easy to ask too many questions, but bringing up money is the quickest way to find out about the other person's family situation.

Although it may not be accurate, it's the first time we've met, so a simple probe is enough.

She didn't expect Fang Qingdai to not even blink and actually intend to buy Grade A potion, even willing to pay double the price!

Fang Qingdai frowned in thought. If what Mao Ling said was true, then Grade B potions were indeed sufficient.
