“Sir, let me ask one more question,” Jia Zizai said. “Do you want to sue him by legal means?”

“Yeah, why not?” Wang Yao asked.

“Sir, what we have done is illegal,” Jia Zizai said. “In theory, such a company should have been banned. People like us should have been arrested and sentenced, but we are still alive in a way we like and the company is still functioning normally. In addition to the almost devastating disaster in the early years, the company has been safe and sound. Do you know why is that?”

“Some powerful friends?” Wang Yao asked with a smile.

“That is true, and our company has a perfect system,” Jia Zizai said. “As long as you join us, we will get something on you. Once the company has an accident, it will be transmitted to someone in some special way. When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. When the boss falls from power, his lackeys disperse. No, it should be die to be accurate!”

“Even so, even if we succeeded in getting rid of your boss, wouldn’t you still be implicated?” Wang Yao asked.

“I have a solution to that problem,” Jia Zizai said.

“Really?” Wang Yao asked.

“There’s a 50 percent chance of success,” Jia Zizai said.

“So low?” Wang Yao asked.

“It’s worth a try,” Jia Zizai said.

These people were used to being engaged in bloody trading with a knife. The risk had always been very high. This ratio was already very high.

“Let’s put it this way, tell me the news of the chairman, and I will take the time to try his means.” Wang Yao smiled.

“OK, Sir, but please be sure to let me know before you take action so that I can do some preparation,” Jia Zizai said.

“No problem,” Wang Yao replied.

Jia Zizai did not stay in the mountain village for long. He gave Wang Yao some information and left.

Lately, the clinic had been busy. People coming to see the doctor were all children with symptoms such as a cold and cough. Perhaps it was the new season, during which the weather could be cold or hot, that made small children more vulnerable to illnesses.

It was all the same medicine to get rid of the internal heat and stop the coughing. Yet, Wang Yao found a problem. Some children hated drinking medicine while they were crying hard. The reason was very simple. The medicine tasted too bitter.

This can be improved, Wang Yao thought.

It was true that medicine always tasted bitter. It was fine for adults, but it was troublesome for children.

Wang Yao thought about it. Loquat, tendril-leaved fritillary bulb, platycodon grandiflorum, menthol…

It was easy for him to get the medicine effective, but how to adjust the taste was a problem because these medicines had a special medicinal taste. It was not easy to make the medicine taste relatively good.

Wang Yao did not think that he could succeed. The premise was to change the taste while maintaining the original efficacy.

Zhong Liuchuan was still practicing every day. In the morning and evening, he went to Dongshan to practice the method of breathing. He quickly progressed.

In the afternoon, Pan Jun came to the clinic. Wang Yao was busy with a child’s medical treatment. The child, who was 12 months old, kept coughing and was quite weak.

“Take a seat,” Wang Yao said.

“OK.” The child did as he was told but seemed anxious.

“Hey, don’t be afraid.” Wang Yao softly comforted the child, gently patting on the chest and abdomen.

The child suddenly stopped coughing and spit something out. It was not food. It was yellow sputum. The child’s breathing was much better after spitting it out. When it was in his throat, it created the noisy and harsh sound of a bellow.

Children at this age could not cough on their own. The general treatment could only be to use drugs to get rid of the sputum, but the process might last a few days. The treatment Wang Yao used was to stimulate the insides from the outside to help the child spit out the accumulative sputum in the lungs.

Although it would be a little uncomfortable the one time, he would be much more comfortable in the next two days. However, this child was still scared and crying. His parents took a long while to comfort him. He finally stopped crying.

“This is the medicine. It is bitter, but you have to give it to him.” Wang Yao handed it to the child’s father.

The medicine was very bitter, but the effect was absolutely great. More importantly, the body organs of children were very fragile. He could not use too strong of drugs.

After sending the father and son away, the next patient was an old man with a little girl around 6 years old. She was also coughing and had a runny nose.

“Don’t be afraid.” Wang Yao gently rubbed the little girl’s acupoints on the face. He inserted needles into her face and prescribed medicine. “Take the medicine regularly. It will be effective within a week.”

He saw four children in a row with a runny nose or a cough.

“This is the case lately,” Pan Jun said. “I don’t know what is going on. Children are particularly vulnerable to colds. The pediatric departments in the county hospital are full.”

“It has something to do with the constant changes in the weather these days,” Wang Yao said.

It would be a little bit stuffy, rain, and then cool down. The temperature difference between morning and evening was growing. In addition to air-conditioning in summer, the indoor and outdoor temperature difference and humidity were drastic. Children were not as strong as adults, which made it easier for them to catch a cold.

Two more patients came in. Pan Jun helped Wang Yao. They two quickly finished the treatments.

“Master, are you free tomorrow?” Pan Jun asked.

“Tomorrow? What are you doing?” Wang Yao asked.

“I want to invite you to have a meal together, as well as Zhong Liuchuan, but no other people,” Pan Jun said.

“Noon or evening?” Wang Yao asked.

“At noon since tomorrow is Saturday, isn’t it?” Pan Jun replied.

“Time went fast,” Wang Yao said. “It is Saturday, so I am free.”

“I will pick you up,” Pan Jun said.

“No, just give me a call,” Wang Yao replied. “I will come with Liuchuan.”

Later in the afternoon, Pan Jun drove home. Originally, Wang Yao wanted him to stay for dinner. However, Pan Jun had made an appointment that night.

Wang Yao came out of the clinic and saw Zhong Liuchuan coming from the mountain road gently running. His movements were very light.

“Going up the mountain?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“Do you have any plans for tomorrow?” Wang Yao asked.

“I’ve got nothing,” Zhong Liuchuan replied. “What do you want to do?”

“Oh, nothing, Pan Jun wants to treat us to lunch,” Wang Yao said. “Do you want to go with me? Anxin should be on holiday. You can bring her with you.”

“That sounds good,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“I will call you tomorrow, and we will drive there,” Wang Yao said.

“Yes, Sir,” Zhong Liuchuan replied.

After eating a meal, Wang Yao went to Nanshan Hill early and found a few medicines. He was ready to do some experiments.

The mountain firewood was burning with a noisy sound. In the pot, the Chinese medicine soup was boiling, giving off a unique medicinal taste.

“Bitter.” Wang Yao did not have to taste it. He knew it just by smelling.

He added an auxiliary medicine in. After a while, the taste of the soup changed.

“It’s still bitter.” He thought about it and added a little lily’s petal into it. After a while, he reached out and dipped into it to try it.

“Oh, no.” He took the pot off the flame and set it aside until it cooled down. He next added a little rock sugar and pear juice and reconciled them together.

“Well, this time it is much better.” Although the taste was still a bit bitter, the sweetness made it easier to swallow. “I can add some sugar and honey.”

Wang Yao had all of the ingredients there. That night, he did not do anything else except for reconciling the soup to treat coughs and fevers in children. He failed three times before finally succeeding around midnight. The effect was not bad, and the taste could be accepted by children.

The next day, he divided the prepared medicines into several small bottles and took them down the mountain. He estimated that there would still be many people coming to the clinic. Sure enough, there were more than a dozen patients in the morning. They all came with children who were still coughing and had runny noses. Wang Yao’s new medicines came into use. Only one small bottle was left in the morning.

At noon, he closed the door of the clinic and went to Lianshan’s town center with Zhong Liuchuan. Zhong Anxin did not go with him. She didn’t want to go, so Zhong Liuchuan didn’t force herself. He left her alone at home. After a few words, he left the mountain village with Wang Yao.

Pan Jun had already booked a table in a restaurant.

“So high-end just for three of us?” Wang Yao was surprised.

“Only three of us.” Pan Jun smiled.

“There is no need to come to such a place,” Wang Yao said.

“Master, please come on in,” Pan Jun said. “I have already ordered the dishes.”

As they entered, they found the place was quite busy.

“This business is doing very well,” Wang Yao said.

“Yes, I failed to book a table several times,” Pan Jun said.

The three of them went into a small room.

“Could you please serve the dishes?” Pan Jun asked the waiter.

“Yes, Sir, just a moment,” the waiter said.

Someone was responsible for pouring tea, even though there were only three people. They served the dishes very quickly. They were all quite delicate.

“Well, it tastes good,” Wang Yao said.

“The owner of this restaurant has changed two times in three years,” Pan Jun said. “This boss is a southerner. He runs the business in more flexible ways.”

The food was exquisite and not too expensive. The atmosphere was also quite good, which was why there were so many customers.

“Don’t eat it anymore.” Wang Yao pointed to a plate of fresh vegetables that had just been served.

“Why?” Pan Jun asked.

“The time is not right,” Wang Yao said. “Eating them with wine can easily cause diarrhea and vomiting.”

The waiter next to him was shocked. He thought, We have had this combination many times, and I have never seen anyone reacting like that.

He obviously did not believe what Wang Yao said.
