Chapter 389 It Seems There's Still a Chance

rk. They can bring the water from the mountain to the village sooner, which wouldn't be entirely bad for their family.Although having exclusive access to the water source significantly reduced water c..."Alright, we can leave now."

The fat old man hurriedly took out another silver ingot and waved it in front of Fang Jinshi's eyes. Seeing how this girl had just changed her expression, he figured she must be short on money.

"No, old man, what are you doing" Fang Jinxiu asked with a smile.

Even if she agreed to ten taels for treatment, it didn't mean the money could keep her from leaving.

The chubby old man chuckled and said, "Girl, your medical skills are so impressive. This old man wants to have a more detailed chat with you about his condition. The price is something we can discuss."

Fang Jinshi looked seriously at the other person and said, "Old man, it's not that I don't want to see you, it's just that I have something urgent to do and can't delay."

"Your illness isn't something that can be cured in a day or two, my affairs can't even be delayed for a day."

"Well, seeing as you're not completely useless, I'll write you a prescription and detailed instructions for treating this illness once my own affairs are settled."

After finishing her words, she continued to leave. The portly old man still wore that amiable smile and calmly took out a silver note worth one hundred taels from his pocket.

"The thing you're so eager to do, isn't it this" He waved the silver note in front of Fang Jinshu.

Since a single silver ingot can't stop this girl, then ten!

Fang Jinshui's steps faltered, but she still shook her head.

"No, old man, the money I earn seeing patients doesn't even come close to solving my problems now."

"These, are not enough."

The shopkeeper, who had already run to the back behind the counter, saw that his master had actually taken out one hundred taels of silver just to keep this girl. His eyes widened in astonishment.

Even the renowned Dr. Andang of Luoshui City, the most famous doctor within their city walls, wouldn't charge more than a hundred taels for an appointment. Is the master going mad

But when he heard Fang Jinshi's words, his expression instantly went haywire.

"Little girl, don't bully our master! You think a hundred taels is too little Do you want a thousand taels!"

Unexpectedly, Fang Jinxiu actually nodded and said, "If there were really a thousand taels, I would certainly consider it."

The shopkeeper was taken aback by her outlandish words. This girl must be crazy about money, right Her medical skills were indeed superb, but that didn't justify a thousand taels!

You're asking her to see a doctor and even go bankrupt for emotional reasons.

The portly old man, hearing these words, did not get angry. He still smiled like a Buddha of Maitreya.

Fang Jinshu didn't mean to blackmail the old man in front of her, but the silver he had wouldn't help her much. She couldn't waste a few days here just for this hundred taels.

She didn't continue to argue with the shopkeeper, and turned to leave. Suddenly, the portly old man spoke again.

"If you can cure my illness, perhaps I can help you solve your problem."

Fang Jinxiu was surprised and turned her head, "You"

The stout old man chuckled and nodded.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

Fang Jinshi couldn't help but laugh. Well, this old man was indeed quite interesting. From the restaurant's decor, it could be seen that he should be a low-key wealthy person.

"Alright, if you can truly solve my problems, don't even mention curing me. I'd even let you be my adopted daughter."

Fang Jinshi was just speaking casually, but unexpectedly the old man's eyes lit up.

"Really"

She suddenly froze, no, she was just saying it casually, did this old geezer actually take it seriously

"How about we focus on solving my problem first"

The fat old man began to chuckle, "Alright, come with me upstairs."

Fang Jinshi and Zong Yu looked at each other. Anyway, they hadn't found a buyer for the medicinal herbs yet, so they might as well hear what the old man had to say.

The two followed upstairs and returned to the private room where the fat old man had just been eating.

"Tell me, what are your troubles Something to do with silver"

The old man is quite smart, he gets straight to the point.

Fang Jinshu didn't pretend to be emotional, she just nodded. "That's right, I want to find a buyer for the medicinal herbs in my hands. They are all good things, but you run a restaurant, and I'm afraid these herbs won't be useful to you."

"Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head. "How do you know I won't use it First, take out the thing and let me have a look. If it's really good stuff, I might have some sales channels to help you sell it."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinshu felt intrigued. She didn't reach for the Huangqi and Bai Zhi herbs she had previously shown Zhao Jiuzhou. Instead, she took out a particularly fine specimen of Wu Lingzhi.

Thinking the portly old man didn't recognize the medicinal herb, Fang Jinshu was about to introduce it when he suddenly stood up excitedly.

"Lingzhi!"

"Indeed, it's a good thing."

Fang Jinshi's heart was filled with joy. It seemed there was a real possibility!ed her like a mountain fairy, she couldn't help but punch him."Who is the fairy!""I am a human."Without the tension in the air, Fang Jinshu took Zong Yu's hand proactively.Every time Fang Jinxiu saw h...
