Chapter 565: Chapter 565
Shengfu Sword had encountered too many fake masters, those fake masters would ask for a treatment fee of a hundred thousand, sometimes even two hundred thousand or three hundred thousand. If it weren’t for the deep pockets of the Sheng Family, just being scammed by these fake masters would have left them penniless.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "I used silver needles to clear the blocked meridians for the old gentleman. His body has now recovered about fifty percent. Next, he still needs to take medicine to completely cure the root cause of the disease. As they say, a disease strikes like a landslide but goes away like unraveling silk. Treating a disease is a gradual process. I’ll write a prescription for the old gentleman, and I hope he can take the medicine consistently and on time, so he can be fully healed."
Shengfu Sword quickly said, "Of course, whatever Divine Doctor Lin says goes. I have no other choice but to listen."
Sheng Wanqing brought over paper and pen.
Lin Fan immediately wrote out a prescription: "Follow this prescription to get the medicine, boil three bowls of water down to one bowl, once in the morning and once in the evening, continue for a month. After a month, halve the dosage, and after another month, the old gentleman’s body will be fully recovered."
"Noted, thank you, Divine Doctor Lin."
Shengfu Sword accepted the prescription with great respect, as if receiving an imperial edict. This was actually more important than an imperial edict because it was a life-saving prescription.
Lin Fan put away the silver needles and said, "The matter here is concluded. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way."
Shengfu Sword hurriedly said, "Divine Doctor Lin, you saved an old man’s life; I owe you a debt of gratitude for giving me a second life. I can’t treat you poorly. As for the treatment fee, Divine Doctor Lin, feel free to name your price. Money is not an issue."
Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "This acupuncture session was indeed quite difficult, so I’ll charge the old gentleman 300 yuan."
Shengfu Sword and Sheng Wanqing exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise, thinking they had misheard.
Lin Fan said, "Does the old gentleman find it too expensive? Then let’s make it 200 yuan instead."
The Sheng family grandfather and granddaughter broke out in cold sweat!
yuan, and still negotiable!
Shengfu Sword was a bit at a loss for words: "No, Divine Doctor Lin only charges 300? Did I hear that right? Really, only 300?"
Sheng Wanqing said, "In the past two years, I’ve taken grandpa to countless doctors. They all started at at least a hundred thousand, but none of them were any help! Now Divine Doctor Lin has cured grandpa, yet he’s only charging 300 yuan. Is this for real?"
They both thought they had misheard.
After being used to getting ripped off, they were not used to encountering someone with a conscience.
Lin Fan smiled slightly, "I understand your feelings, you’ve probably been scammed too many times. Those scammers are after money and naturally charge high prices. From my perspective, this wasn’t a very difficult illness to treat. This price is quite fair."
Shengfu Sword said, "Divine Doctor Lin, you saved my life and only charge 300 yuan. I feel uneasy about this. How about I give you a million yuan in gratitude for saving my life!"
Shengfu Sword felt unbalanced. He had given those scammers hundreds of thousands, but only 300 for a real divine doctor? How unfair!
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "If I were after your money, I wouldn’t have treated you. I’m here primarily to treat you and charge a reasonable price. Giving me a million would actually be disrespectful to me."
Lin Fan knew full well that becoming a doctor to earn money is quite easy. Let alone doctors with real medical skills; even those fraudulent scammers find it easy to make money.
Being a doctor is a highly sought-after profession. A doctor working in a hospital earns a salary and various benefits. If they have some reputation, people will privately seek them out for treatment and pay handsomely.
Hospitals are also very profitable; using a set of equipment repeatedly, just a simple physical check-up, scanning machines, checking pulse, and doing blood tests can cost over a hundred yuan. If it’s a severe disease, it can’t be managed without tens of thousands.
You walk into a hospital with full pockets and leave with empty ones, as if going back decades overnight. Such things happen every day in hospitals.
Even with insurance, it’s often not much help, as it can’t cover everything. Besides, there are many situations where insurance doesn’t apply. Typically, a major illness will drain your funds.
Lin Fan had long been fed up with such a situation.
Now that he possessed top-notch medical skills, he treated patients without charging the exorbitant fees that hospitals do.
Simply put, he didn’t lack money!
Shengfu Sword offered him a million, which seemed like a significant treatment fee, even a considerable one.
But in Lin Fan’s view, a million was not much. He didn’t lack a million.
What he truly wanted was to use his top-notch medical skills to heal patients. As a doctor, curing diseases is the most important thing.
Hearing Lin Fan’s words, Shengfu Sword couldn’t help but feel a bit ashamed.
He realized that offering a million to Lin Fan was actually an insult. Divine Doctor Lin’s realm couldn’t be measured with money.
"Wanqing, as Divine Doctor Lin said, bring 300 yuan," Shengfu Sword said solemnly.
That Lin Fan only charged 300 yuan instantly elevated Lin Fan’s image in Shengfu Sword’s eyes. Originally, he was impressed by Divine Doctor Lin’s extraordinary medical skills. Now, he was utterly convinced by Lin Fan’s realm.
This young man was truly chosen by fate. Like a beam of righteous light in a chaotic world, to have such a realm at a young age, he was practically a divine being.
Shengfu Sword wanted to kneel for Lin Fan, to pay homage, bowing with utmost humility.
Sheng Wanqing picked up a wallet and took out three red bills.
Lin Fan accepted the 300 yuan and casually put it into his pants pocket. This 300 yuan would be considered as the income for the small clinic.
Having finished the consultation and collected the fee, Lin Fan intended to take his leave.
At this moment, a middle-aged man came in from outside, well-maintained, clearly accustomed to a luxurious life. His aura suggested a significant status and position.
"Decai, you’re back. Come and meet Divine Doctor Lin," Shengfu Sword called upon seeing the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man glanced at Lin Fan, a bit surprised: "Divine doctor?"
This young man looked only in his early twenties; how could he be a divine doctor? Could he be a scammer?
This was the middle-aged man’s first reaction. Indeed, Lin Fan was too young, not looking like a divine doctor at all.
Shengfu Sword introduced, "Let me introduce, this is Divine Doctor Lin, Lin Fan. Divine Doctor Lin, this is my eldest son Sheng Decai, currently the county party secretary of this county."
Sheng Decai, Shengfu Sword’s eldest son, Sheng Wanqing’s father, county party secretary!
County party secretary?
Lin Fan was a bit surprised. He didn’t know much about the Sheng family, and he hadn’t expected that the Sheng family was quite impressive.
Sheng Decai nodded slightly at Lin Fan, remaining skeptical about him being a divine doctor.
"Father, I heard you fainted on your way back today. I made time to come back and check on you. How are you feeling now?" Sheng Decai immediately and respectfully inquired after Shengfu Sword.
Shengfu Sword laughed and said, "Thanks to meeting Divine Doctor Lin, my illness is no longer a problem."
Sheng Wanqing added, "Yes, Divine Doctor Lin gave grandpa acupuncture, and his spirits have improved significantly. He’ll recover soon."
Sheng Decai was taken aback, glancing at Shengfu Sword, indeed noticing that his father’s complexion seemed much better. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Could it be... this young man really is a divine doctor?
Suddenly, Sheng Decai received a phone call, and then he answered it.
After listening to the call.
Sheng Decai was somewhat anxious and said, "I’m sorry, I need to go to the hospital. The county chief’s mother was having surgery at the county hospital today and there was an accident. She’s not out of danger yet."
Shengfu Sword made a sound of surprise and said, "Perhaps you could invite Divine Doctor Lin to take a look."
