"Do you want to buy this prescription?"
Yuanyuan repeated uncertainly.
The old man opposite nodded, his tone somewhat melancholy.
"Logically, this shouldn't happen. After all, when it comes to prescriptions, everyone has their own dosage.
What I learned from you is essentially stealing your knowledge.
But now we live in a new country and a new society, and I have quite a few long-term patients here with various illnesses.
Because I am not well-trained, too many people have not received better treatment.
Besides, we always want to pass on our ancestors’ things.
There are many things left in history, and we, the descendants, feel both regretful and helpless.
I'm not telling you so much today to take advantage of you.
I just heard this prescription, and to be honest, I can remember it almost perfectly.
But I am not the kind of person who takes advantage of others. Just name a price and sell us the prescription intact.
We won't take advantage of you, and you won't suffer any loss. Is this okay with you?"
Yuanyuan quickly waved her hands and answered embarrassedly.
"Don't be so polite. You are my elder and you dare not speak to me in such a rude way.
As for what you said about buying the prescription, there's nothing wrong with that.
You are also considering the future generations and more patients.
How could I not agree? Let me put it this way, you name a price, and we'll take whatever you think it's worth.
I won't be polite to you, and you shouldn't feel guilty.
Let's be frank and honest. Whatever you say is what it is. Is that ok with you?"
Both of them are very polite, calling you "you" all the time.
To be honest, the way he spoke in Beijing dialect made the young man next to him dumbfounded.
The young man was from Tianjin, and the more he listened to the two of them talking, the more familiar he felt.
"How come they're even more talkative than us Tianjin people? Just two sentences, and they've been talking for ages. They're such chatterboxes!"
Of course, the young man only dared to mutter in his heart.
When Mr. Bai saw that the girl was generous and straightforward, and did not act pretentiously or ask for an exorbitant price, he felt a little more appreciative.
He is old and has met too many different kinds of people.
Most cannot escape fame and fortune.
But this person is so hypocritical.
It's boring to pretend to be noble and act pretentiously.
Mr. Bai has been obsessed with medicine all his life. He is a pure and straightforward person.
Now seeing this girl in this state, I suddenly feel that everything about her is pleasing to the eye.
“Hahaha, okay, I like girls who are straightforward and decisive.
Let’s put it this way, I’ll give you 800 yuan for this recipe. It’s not that the recipe is worthless, nor is it that I’m an old man and have a bad heart.
I'm really broke. This is money I've saved for most of my life, even though I'm an old man.
What do you think, girl?
When Yuanyuan heard the price of eight hundred yuan, her eyes widened.
This is eight hundred yuan!
Don't think that Lu Cizhou gives you hundreds of dollars at every turn.
Don’t look at your brother-in-law, he bought a house for himself.
But who are they?
The top people in the Beijing circle.
The resources and connections they have are beyond words.
For ordinary people, it only costs a little over two hundred yuan a month for twenty-one years.
This is even without eating, drinking or spending money.
The Jiang family, if Father Jiang hadn't died at the right time, they wouldn't have so much money.
Most people only save a few hundred dollars in their lifetime.
A prescription costs eight hundred! Yuanyuan wanted to jump up and kiss the old man.
However, when he heard that this was the money the old man had saved for most of his life, he felt a little embarrassed.
The main thing is that she is not short of money.
If she really needs money, then she will naturally not be polite.
But she was pampered by the entire Jiang family.
My boyfriend is awesome, my mother favors me, my elder sister supports me, and my second brother serves me.
She is supported by seven people alone.
I really am not short of money. It would be inappropriate to bankrupt the old man because of a prescription.
Although doctors were respected in those days, they didn't make much money.
Especially for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, they can make money by selling medicinal materials, but they can’t make much by treating patients.
The salary the government gives them is only thirty or forty yuan a month.
Where is the money?
So he quickly waved his hands and said with an embarrassed look.
"Look at what you're saying, old man. How dare I ask for so much money?
This recipe was introduced to me by someone else, and I'm already shameless enough to ask for money.
If I asked for so much, I would be committing a sin.”
The old man smiled even more happily when he saw the other party refuse.
He doesn't care about the two dollars.
Those who study medicine are here to save the world and the people, and money is just a thing outside of their body.
As long as he has this skill, he will never starve to death.
He was happy that the little girl in front of him had a clear gaze, a thoughtful mind, and more importantly, was not burdened by external things.
Children at this age value external things the most.
They didn't expect that the little girl was so sensible, which really made the elders happy.
"You are such a kind-hearted girl! It seems your parents must have brought you up well. I haven't seen such an outstanding young man in a long time."
Yuanyuan shyly waved her hands and explained awkwardly.
"Don't praise me, but my mother did educate me very well. She is a great and excellent mother."
Bai Lao nodded and said in agreement.
"Children are the best works of their parents. It seems your mother is really outstanding.
As for the price, since you said so, I, an old man, won’t be polite.
How about four hundred yuan? No more, no less, and I promise to pass this recipe on.
I will never keep it for myself, but will definitely let it do more good deeds and pass it on."
