Chapter 869 — The Exact Same Prescription
"It's feasible, extremely feasible!" Zhao Qibing nodded, then looked toward Li Cihua: "Cihua, what do you think?"
"Indeed, the feasibility is very high!" Li Cihua also nodded in agreement. "Whatever intelligence you need, I'll help you get it!"
"Then I'm truly grateful to you, Brother Cihua!" Zhen Dazhou hurriedly gave his thanks. "Then I'll go back first and get in touch with that expert..."
"Wait..." the Medicine King spoke up again.
"Medicine King, is there something else?" Zhen Dazhou was taken aback, but since it was the Medicine King speaking, he did not dare to be negligent. He quickly stopped in his tracks and turned back to ask.
"That hidden ailment you spoke of today has reminded me of something. Although your son appears to be free of symptoms at the moment, there's no telling what other tricks Wei Zhao might have up his sleeve. You must be careful—when you get back home, don't take anything amiss lightly!" The Medicine King began to offer Zhen Dazhou some preemptive counsel.
"What! There could be more?" Zhen Dazhou flew into a rage at once: "This Wei Zhao is utterly despicable! There's more!"
"I'm merely speculating—I can't be certain, since I only drew this conclusion by association from today's incident." The Medicine King gave a sigh and said.
"Then, Medicine King, would you examine Yingjun once more?" Zhen Dazhou asked cautiously.
"An examination now would reveal nothing. When the ailment hasn't manifested, how am I supposed to conduct a targeted diagnosis? I can't very well inspect every single part of your son's body, can I? In doing so, my true qi would likely be depleted, and I'd drop dead on the spot." The Medicine King waved his hand, rejecting Zhen Dazhou's proposal.
"I see..." Hearing the Medicine King say this, Zhen Dazhou could hardly press the matter, yet his heart felt as though it were clogged, extremely displeased, and his hatred toward Wei Zhao deepened another layer.
"But rest assured, there's no ailment this Medicine King cannot cure. If any problem arises, just come find me!" The Medicine King said consolingly.
"Then I suppose that will have to do." Zhen Dazhou had no other choice but to take his son and take his leave.
Only after the Zhen father-and-son pair had left did Zhao Qibing sigh: "What a couple of idiots. I just hope they stumble their way into killing Wei Zhao!"
"Let them stir things up. We'll just focus on making our money in peace..." Li Cihua said. "Young Master Bing, now that we have forty million in revenue, isn't it time we went ahead and developed the orphanage?"
"Mm, fine. Get things ready, then take the Medicine King over there and give the orphanage a warning—tell them to pack up and get out while they still know what's good for them, or I'll fucking kill them all!" Zhao Qibing said in a very arrogant manner. Now that he had a surefire way of making money with no risk of loss, Zhao Qibing had become far more domineering.
"Young Master Bing, but I'm not skilled in fighting?" The Medicine King, having shed his earlier lackluster demeanor, suddenly became full of vigor and vitality.
"That's fine. All you need to do is display the strength of a Mystic rank expert. That old dean is only a Yellow rank expert—she wouldn't dare to actually fight with a Mystic rank expert like you!" Zhao Qibing said nonchalantly. "I'm not sending you there to fight her; I'm sending you to scare her! Don't worry, as long as she's not brain-dead, she won't lay a hand on you!"
"Understood!" The Medicine King felt reassured upon hearing this, then said: "Young Master Bing, let me first go take a shower. That little performance nearly roasted me alive, and I'm drenched in sweat. This thirty million isn't easy money, you know!"
"Ha!" Hearing the Medicine King's words, Zhao Qibing burst into cheerful laughter: "Medicine King, rest assured, no matter what, you'll get the credit for the biggest contribution. I've made a note of it in my heart!"
"Thank you, Young Master Bing!" The Medicine King hurriedly cupped his hands in gratitude...
There was a Medicine King Zhao in Songshan City, whose miraculous healing rivaled that of Hua Tuo himself. This news spread from the mouths of the Zhen father and son, and with Li Cihua deliberately sending people to amplify and hype it up, before long the Medicine King Zhao's reputation resounded throughout the upper echelons of Songshan City's high society, and even became known to many people from out of town...
However, because of the Medicine King Zhao's exorbitant fees, apart from those like Zhen Yingjun whose ailments no one else could cure and thus were willing to seek the Medicine King's treatment, others truly couldn't bear to part with such a fortune! And so, while the Medicine King Zhao had gained renown, no patients had yet come knocking...
Kang Zhaoming obtained the "prescription" for Doctor Guan's trauma medicine from Kang Xiaobo's hands and was on the verge of being beside himself with joy! He hadn't expected to obtain the prescription so effortlessly—had he known it would be this easy, why would he have bothered pursuing Guan Xin at all?
However, Kang Xiaobo's authority was limited. Acquiring the formula for the trauma medicine might be easy, but getting the formula for the Longevity and Detoxification Pill would likely not be so simple! After all, the core secrets Kang Xiaobo could access were limited. It seemed he would still have to make a move on Guan Xuemin from that direction. Of course, these were matters for later—at least for now, he had something to report back with.
Kang Zhaoming returned to the Kang family in high spirits, carrying the prescription for Doctor Guan's trauma medicine. As for Kang Zhaoming's achievements, Divine Doctor Kang was rather satisfied. After all, the formula for the Longevity and Detoxification Pill couldn't be rushed, and the fact that Kang Zhaoming had managed to bring back the prescription for Doctor Guan's trauma medicine was already a great feat!
"Indeed! This prescription is exactly the same as our Kang family's prescription!" Divine Doctor Kang took the prescription that Kang Zhaoming had brought back and immediately flew into a rage: "It must be that little bastard Kang Xiaobo who presented this formula to Guan Xuemin in exchange for the position of deputy general manager! That money-grubbing dog, ruining the great enterprise of the Kang family!"
Of course, Divine Doctor Kang would never suspect the authenticity of this prescription. After all, the Kang family's formulas were all held in the hands of Divine Doctor Kang himself—even Kang Guifeng and Kang Cuipu didn't know them, let alone Kang Zhaoming! The only one who knew the formula was Kang Zhaolong, and Kang Zhaolong could not possibly have leaked it, because Divine Doctor Kang had already designated him as the future head of the Kang family—why would he betray his own interests?
Therefore, this prescription must have come from Kang Xiaobo's hands!
"Exactly. He could sell the formula to me for three hundred thousand, so naturally he'd hand it over to Guan Xuemin for the position of deputy general manager!" Kang Zhaoming nodded in agreement.
"Hmph! In that case, don't blame me for being unkind!" Divine Doctor Kang let out a cold laugh and said.
"Yes, Grandfather, we absolutely must not let them off easy!" Kang Zhaoming said.
"Zhaoming, you've done well! I never would have thought—I used to believe you were nothing but a spoiled young master, but when it comes to getting things done, you're quite capable!" After cursing Kang Xiaobo, Divine Doctor Kang then revealed a gratified expression, looking at Kang Zhaoming and saying: "Excellent. Now that we've obtained their formula before Doctor Guan's product hits the market, we can deliver a crushing blow at their new product launch!"
