- Chapter 54 - I Was Just Helping Him Calm Down
As the information about the Golden Bull Detoxification Pills flooded his mind, Qin Jiang was stunned.
In traditional Chinese medicine, many herbs have detoxifying and toxin-eliminating properties. Common examples include chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, and boat-fruited sterculia seed, which people often brew for tea.
However, two specific herbs are notable not just for neutralizing toxins but also for actively expelling them: Golden Bull Grass and dandelion. Their purging effects are generally considered weak, though. Because the human body doesn’t absorb and utilize them very efficiently, they’ve always been relegated to supporting roles, never becoming mainstream detoxification medicines.
The Golden Bull Detoxification Pills were entirely different.
The detoxifying efficacy of these pills was enhanced over a hundredfold. With long-term use, they could expel all toxins from the human body!
This was incredibly powerful!
“Dr. Qin? I’ve transferred the money. When can my condition be treated?”
Seeing Qin Jiang just standing there smiling and spacing out after he scanned the payment, the male assistant started feeling uneasy.
Had he just been scammed?
Qin Jiang snapped back to reality. He smiled at the assistant and said, “Wait here for a moment. I’ll go get your medicine.”
Qin Jiang went into the dispensary and started hand-rolling some Digestive Aid Tablets, meantime making the Golden Bull Detoxification Pills as well.
Fifteen minutes later.
As Qin Jiang walked out of the dispensary with the medicine, he saw a man tied up and being brought into the clinic by his family.
“I told you, I’m not sick! Why won’t you believe me!”
“Let me go! If you don’t let me go, I’ll bite someone!”
The live stream viewers were quite startled by this scene.
“Whoa, what’s going on? Why is someone tied up for a doctor’s visit?”
“The biting part is wild. Did they capture a vampire or something?”
“It looks like it! Look at his build, his frantic eyes… could he actually be a vampire?”
It was no wonder the viewers thought this. The tied-up man was extremely thin—not a normal skinny, but gaunt and withered. At a glance, he looked like skin draped over bones, offering a true demonstration of the phrase ‘skin and bones.’
What made people even more uncomfortable was that the bound man seemed to have some kind of manic episode; he kept struggling violently, trying to break free, not unlike restraining a wild animal.
“Doctor, please, save my son!”
As soon as the group entered the courtyard, an old woman burst into tears, pleading with Qin Jiang.
Startled, Qin Jiang hurried over to support her. “Ma’am, don’t worry. Take your time and tell me what’s going on.”
The old woman pointed at the man. “This is my son, Liu Jinhai. This good-for-nothing, I don’t know what kind of spell he’s under recently, but he keeps going to a hot pot restaurant in our neighborhood to eat hot pot. He has it for all three meals a day! He’s eating us out of house and home!”
Hearing this, Qin Jiang was also baffled. Such a strange situation?
Qin Jiang tried to calm them. “Ma’am, please don’t panic. I have another patient here. Let him sit down first, and I’ll immediately take a look at what’s going on with your son.”
After saying this, Qin Jiang handed the Digestive Aid Tablets to the male assistant. “These are my proprietary Digestive Aid Tablets. Taking them will resolve your gastrointestinal and constipation issues. Take three tablets a day, after meals. Don’t take more than that.”
Having been plagued by constipation for so long, the assistant immediately asked, “Dr. Qin, can I take one right now?”
“You can.”
Qin Jiang pointed towards the distant restroom. “I recommend you take plenty of toilet paper and maybe a stick to lean on. Support yourself with your hands while squatting, or your legs might go numb.”
The assistant thought Qin Jiang was exaggerating. He was a strong young man; why would he need a stick to go to the bathroom?
He took one tablet right in front of Qin Jiang. Qin Jiang quickly moved further away.
Soon, gurgling sounds came from the assistant’s stomach, followed by a series of unrestrained gas releases!
The other patients waiting weren’t prepared and were almost overwhelmed by the odor.
The tied-up man, who had been flailing wildly moments before, was now dazed by the smell, his brain seemingly short-circuiting.
“Oh crap, give me the paper!” The assistant grabbed a roll of toilet paper and dashed straight for the restroom.
Qin Jiang knew the assistant wouldn’t be emerging anytime soon.
Viewers in the live stream saw this and filled the chat with comments.
“Is that even a Digestive Aid Tablet? That’s more like a laxative!”
“Dr. Qin, I’m begging you, open up an online shop! Just put up the product link, I’ll order immediately!”
“I’ve had chronic constipation for over ten years. I want those Digestive Aid Tablets too!”
“Brothers, quickly suggest to the live stream director that Qin Jiang should set up a shop!”
Back when Qin Jiang had brought out the Divine Oil, viewers were already intrigued. Now, seeing the Digestive Aid Tablets were so effective, they couldn’t hold back anymore.
For many middle-aged men, the first thing in the morning is a trip to the bathroom, where they squat for an hour. Others might think they’re just occupying the stall without doing anything. But if it weren’t for the immense pressure and anxiety, who would willingly spend so long in the bathroom?
Soon, Liu Yan received a call from her supervisor. She approached Qin Jiang and asked quietly, “Dr. Qin, the viewers are strongly suggesting you open an online shop. What are your thoughts?”
Qin Jiang directly shook his head and refused. “These medicines are all my proprietary formulas. It’s impossible for me to share them with others. And if I rely solely on myself hand-rolling these pills, even working myself to death, I couldn’t produce much. So, if any of you genuinely need them, come to the clinic for a consultation.”
Qin Jiang’s reasoning was sound, but the viewers didn’t understand.
Turning down easy money? Wasn’t this just pure foolishness!
Qin Jiang, however, sneered inwardly.
Make money?
Making money wasn’t as important as obtaining system rewards. If he buried himself in the dispensary rolling pills for a year, all he’d get was money. But if he saw patients every day, curing one patient would grant him a system reward. Wasn’t that far better than just making money?
After refusing Liu Yan, Qin Jiang turned his attention to Liu Jinhai.
“Come here, sit down. Let me examine you.”
“I’m not sick! I don’t need you to examine me!”
Liu Jinhai was aggressive and didn’t take Qin Jiang seriously at all. When Qin Jiang reached out to check his tongue coating, Liu Jinhai even tried to bite him!
If Qin Jiang hadn’t pulled his hand back quickly, his fingers would definitely have been bitten.
A group of family members were standing nearby, anxiously pacing back and forth.
“Jinhai, can’t you be more obedient? Cooperate with the doctor properly so your illness can be cured!”
Liu Jinhai remained defiant, his neck stiff, acting like he wouldn’t submit to anyone. “I’m not sick!”
Qin Jiang smiled.
He reached his hand out towards Liu Jinhai again. “Come on, open your mouth.”
Liu Jinhai glared fiercely and opened his mouth to bite.
At that moment, everyone heard a sharp SMACK!
Liu Jinhai was stunned by the slap.
Everyone else around was dumbfounded.
Had Qin Jiang just straight up slapped Liu Jinhai?
Qin Jiang shook his wrist slightly and said calmly, “Everyone, don’t be nervous. This is physical therapy. I was just helping him calm down a bit.”
