While acute illnesses can be difficult to cure, there's still room for criticism. Hysteria, on the other hand, requires a long treatment period, and whether it can be cured depends on luck, so there's no need to worry about it.
After hearing Qian Deren's words, Kang Taihe felt relieved.
"If the Imperial Advisor needs you to treat patients again next time, you'd better find an opportunity to get close to him. This could be a great chance for you and our Miraculous Hands Hall to rise to the top."
Qian Deren and Kang Taihe shared the same idea. After discussing some details, Kang Taihe returned to his courtyard through the secret passage.
Kang Taihe returned to the courtyard and took out the dividends that Qian Deren had given him. He counted them and found that there were more than a thousand taels.
He had previously agreed with Qian Deren to split the profits 30/70, with him earning 30% and Qian Deren 70%. He never expected to earn so much in just two days.
If things continue like this, he'll be rich. You know, he used to earn less than two taels of silver a month.
If the circumstances had allowed, Kang Taihe would have burst out laughing.
It was already dark. In order to maintain his image as a sage and to retire in time, Kang Taihe's family did not come with him. There was not a single servant in the entire courtyard, which was in line with the image of the medical sage who traveled alone.
Kang Tai was so excited about earning so much money for the first time in his life that he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Having so much money that he can't spend is like wearing fine clothes in the dark for him.
After much hesitation, Kang Taihe dressed himself up casually, put on a hat, and left the courtyard, intending to go to Qixiang Tower to relax.
Qixianglou, the largest brothel in Longxiao City, was a place Kang Tai had only heard of before, but never dared to step into. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he didn't have the money.
Now that he had a thousand taels, he felt more confident.
Kang Taihe opened the courtyard gate, saw that no one was around, walked out of the courtyard, and cautiously headed towards Qixiang Tower.
With Qixiang Tower in sight and the faint sounds of girls' laughter and music audible, Kang Tai quickened his pace.
Bang!
Kang Taihe felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck and slipped and fell to the ground.
When he woke up, he found that his eyes were covered with a black cloth and his hands were tied.
Kang Taihe was terrified. Had someone discovered that he had a thousand taels of silver and come to rob him?
Kang Taihe was secretly relieved that he had left five hundred taels at home, so that they wouldn't all be stolen.
"Don't kill..."
Kang Taihe had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by an unfamiliar male voice, "Dr. Kang, I apologize for any offense. There is a patient who cannot wait any longer, so I have no choice but to ask you to come here. I will release you after Dr. Kang has finished his consultation."
When Kang Taihe heard that he was being asked to treat a patient, he breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't a robbery.
When it came to seeing a doctor, he immediately remembered Qian Deren's instructions to him: always remember your identity as the disciple of the medical sage.
Kang Taihe calmed himself down and said angrily, "If you want to see a doctor, you can go to the clinic and queue up. This despicable behavior is shameful. I will not see you!"
Even if you dare to tie him up, he won't look at you, so what can you do to him?
"One thousand taels," the other party said.
Kang Tai was delighted. A thousand taels for one viewing? Of course, that was acceptable.
However, he still wanted to put on a show, hoping to raise the price. With that in mind, he gritted his teeth and said defiantly, "I won't look."
The next second, Kang Taihe felt something cold and hard resting on his neck.
"Dr. Kang, you're asking for trouble. Swords and blades have no eyes; whether you look or not is not up to you."
Kang Taihe's heart tightened, and he quickly nodded, "I'll see, I'll see."
Then five silk threads were handed to him. "Please, Doctor Kang."
