Without a second thought, Su Ruyi instantly stored the tree root into her spatial storage.
However, she couldn't smell the thing and couldn't be sure if it was the one she had identified.
At this moment, Su Qiushi, who was in the space, also noticed the small bunch of tree root-like objects that had suddenly appeared on his study desk.
He quickly took out a handkerchief, wrapped a piece of tree root in it, and gently fanned it into his nostrils before immediately holding his breath!
He took out a piece of white paper and wrote four large characters on it—"Hexeon tree roots".
Gelsemium elegans is a highly poisonous herb!
However, its roots look very similar to many other herbs, making it a highly toxic medicinal material that is easy to mistake and requires strict control.
Sheng Deliang brought this to Huichuntang; it goes without saying that he intended to poison them.
Su Ruyi's gaze towards Sheng Deliang instantly changed: "Director Sheng, I've already been very polite to you. Are you going to get out of here yourself, or should I kick you out?"
As she spoke, she clenched her right hand into a fist and stretched it out in front of Sheng Deliang's eyes.
Then she spread her five fingers, and a small piece hooked onto the tree root, lying in her palm.
Sheng Deliang's face turned deathly pale instantly, and his hand involuntarily reached for his pants.
The empty feeling in his hand made him even more flustered: "W-what do you mean?"
"Director Shanda, I think you understand what I mean!"
We've never met before, so we have absolutely no grudges against each other.
I don't know if you realize it or not, but you've already been used as a pawn.
Since I dared to open this branch in Beijing, where land is incredibly valuable, I must have been absolutely confident.
Go back and tell your master—this kind of despicable tactic disgusts me.
After Su Ruyi finished speaking, she made a gesture of invitation.
Sheng Deliang tried his best to remain calm, but his whole body was still trembling slightly.
He turned stiffly, pushed aside the crowd of patients waiting at the door, and left.
Su Ruyi reopened the two doors and said loudly, "Patient Number One, please come in."
Yes, these patients who lined up here early were those who didn't get a turn last night.
Su Ruyi gave each of them a number plate and promised to give them priority in seeing doctors today.
Today happens to be a day off.
People passing by saw long queues forming, and many were busy queuing while sending their children home to get baskets. Many assumed that they were buying limited-edition goods without tickets.
When I finally got to the front of the line and asked, I was surprised to find that it was a traditional Chinese medicine hospital that offered free consultations and half-price medication. That was quite something!
I also heard from the people in front that although the doctor inside was young, his medical skills were extraordinary.
So everyone thought, "Let this amazing little doctor take my pulse—it's free anyway."
Of course, these chattering neighborhood aunties who wouldn't leave the entrance of Huichuntang were also arranged by Qi Yasheng; they were the mothers of his students.
It was another busy day.
In the evening, Song Wenyu handed over two yuan each to the two nurses sent by the main hospital as overtime pay.
The two nurses exchanged a glance and took the money.
The two couldn't suppress their smiles: "Thank you, Dr. Song."
After saying that, the two nurses quickly and efficiently cleaned all three examination rooms, leaving them spotless. They even mopped the floors so clean you could almost see your reflection in them.
And so, Su Ruyi and her three colleagues worked until after 9 p.m. every day to get through the seven-day opening period.
As soon as the signs offering free medical consultations and half-price medications were removed, the number of patients decreased significantly.
Jin Xingqiu said with some concern, "Ruyi, the half-price discount won't be available anymore..."
Su Ruyi smiled and said, "Little Martial Aunt, what are you worried about? Don't worry, our reputation for Huichuntang needs to be established after a couple of doses of medicine have been taken and have some effect. Just be patient."
And so, another week of leisure passed, and the end of the month arrived.
Sheng Deliang arrived again, carrying a stiff kraft paper bag, which made Su Ruyi's glass medicine cabinet rattle: "It's the end of the month, let's hand over this month's accounts!"
Su Ruyi didn't even look at him: "According to the hospital's regulations, a cashier and an accountant should be present when handing over accounts. Are you the accountant or the cashier? Why didn't the finance department send anyone? Instead, they sent you, the office director?"
Sheng Deliang choked on his words: "I...I'm not here to hand over the accounts, I'm here to audit them! Show me all your ledgers. Some people have reported that your accounts are in disarray, and I need to audit them now!"
Su Ruyi stretched out her hand again: "Give it to me!"
Sheng Deliang shuddered: "What?"
"If you want to check the accounts, you need official documentation. You can't just say you want to check the accounts and expect to have access to the entire branch's accounts. Besides, what right do you have to check the accounts?" Su Ruyi asked coldly.
Sheng Deliang's attempt to intimidate others was exposed again, and this time his face turned completely red: "Fine, so your branch is so arrogant, huh? I will definitely report this to Dean Fang truthfully!"
After saying that, he glared at the two nurses sent by the main hospital before storming off.
The moment he entered, Su Ruyi scanned his entire body again. This time, he didn't sneak in any more poison.
However, Su Ruyi discovered that there were indeed some documents in his brown paper bag.
Now, those files are in her space.
After busying herself for a while, Su Ruyi excused herself to go to the restroom and slipped into her spatial dimension the moment she closed the door.
Upon opening those files, she was instantly furious—
There were two documents in total. One was written by Fang Huihui, a nurse sent by the main hospital, and was a detailed record report of the number of patients and the amount of medication prescribed.
The other one turned out to be a fake account handover report!
According to this report, the Huichuntang branch only makes about five yuan a day in revenue.
A comparison of the two reports would immediately crush Su Ruyi!
Clearly, once these two reports are submitted, Su Ruyi will have been found to have concealed 90% of her income. She will immediately be arrested as an economic criminal.
Who is it?
Who is so ruthless?
With one move, he intended to kill her and the Huichuntang branch.
Hearing the commotion, Su Qiushi rushed out of the study. Seeing the two reports, he was furious, his eyes blazing with anger: "Who is it? Who's so malicious? Are they trying to ruin you?"
Su Ruyi had calmed down a bit: "Second Senior Brother said that a tall tree catches the wind, and we have indeed caught the wind. It's just that they are not satisfied with the fact that 90% of our income is handed over and only 10% is kept as funds for the branch school."
Su Qiushi sighed, "Ruyi, it's not that they're dissatisfied because of the money; they're afraid that if you step forward, it will shake their position as the top doctor in the capital!"
Su Ruyi's eyes widened: "The number one doctor in the capital? Who is it?"
