Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1432: Fate is over, let it go

Bian Mu has been very busy recently and has not visited Situ Yu. The female nanny in their family suddenly called and claimed that the old man had died in a car accident a week ago.

At most, Bian Mu was just an ordinary doctor who had treated Situ Yu. They were not related to him, so there was naturally no need for the Situ family to notify him to give gifts or attend the funeral. It was all normal and nothing to say.

"How could such a serious car accident happen?!" Bian Mu asked in surprise on the other end of the phone.

"A few days ago, a few old friends suddenly came to our house. They seemed to be the old gentleman's former colleagues. We haven't had any contact for many years. I only heard a few words from them. They are all living in Beiqi now. They are very old, and suddenly they wanted to visit the old colleagues who are still alive. The leader was a woman. She was very old but still dressed quite fashionably..." On the phone, the female nanny spoke a few words in a slow tone.

"Oh! If we didn't have any previous friendship, this kind of gathering is actually... often not auspicious!" Bian Mu muttered casually on the phone.

"I think so too... Mr. Situ seemed very happy, and he entertained them very seriously for several days. He also arranged very good accommodation for them. They were having a great time, but later... they were getting ready to set off back to Beiqi, and the leading woman suggested that the old man accompany them to the airport and see them off. That day, there happened to be another visitor to the house, and he seemed to be the boss of the Ningguo Temple medicinal materials wholesale market..." On the phone, while recalling the past, the female nanny briefly recounted the scene of the day of the accident.

"You mean that old man... I seem to have some impression of him. His last name is Kong, right?"

"Yes! It was Mr. Kong. It was windy outside and dark. Mr. Kong asked him a few simple questions and advised him not to go. Mr. Situ was a little hesitant at the time. Who would have thought that the leading woman was thinking something and kept calling home. Thinking about it afterwards, the woman seemed to be possessed by a demon. She kept saying that this might be the last time they would see each other in this life. I remember that Mr. Kong was so angry that he kept trying to stop Mr. Situ from going..."

Hearing this, Bian Mu interrupted on the phone: "Mr. Situ finally went to the airport to see me off?"

"Yes! Boss Kong was worried, so he specially arranged for Boss Kong's youngest son to drive a luxury car to send Mr. Situ off!"

"Boss Kong is there too?"

"Yes! He was fine when he went there, but he encountered a drunk driver on the way back. I didn't dare to ask how he was hit. As a result, Boss Kong and his son were slightly injured. Mr. Situ didn't seem to be seriously injured at the time. He was quickly sent to the hospital by car. It was very unexpected that the old man suddenly suffered from multiple organ failure that night... and passed away!"

"Oh! This matter has caused so much trouble... then... you have to find another host?" For a moment, Bian Mu didn't know what to say and was polite out of habit.

"No, my son's business has not been going well recently, and the couple has been having a big fight. I'll take a break for a while and take care of the children for them. I'll wait until they calm down a bit before I see what's going on... It's not easy to find a suitable employer in our business! By the way, I forgot about the main business while talking about it. I stayed with Mr. Situ in the hospital for a while during his last days. Before he died, the old man clearly stated that he would give all the books in his family to you unconditionally, all of them, without missing a single one. At that time, their children and relatives were also present! How can a nanny like me meddle in other people's family affairs! But... later, His children have no intention of admitting this. This morning, I saw them call five or six booksellers, and I heard that they wanted them to bid. Later... those people thought the price asked by the Situ family was too high, and his family thought the old books were interesting, so they sent me to count and pack them. Naturally, I heard a few ears... Later, their family seemed to be planning to pack and send them to the Jiahua Auction House for auction. I know that only you can really understand those books. The old gentleman often mentioned this to me. I should have kept these words to myself, but after thinking about it, it is better to inform you!" At the end, Bian Mu could hear that the female nanny was finally calm.

"I see... they are theirs, let's just talk about ours. You have always been very kind to me, I know what I am doing. If anything happens in the future, if there is no discussion, I will do my best as long as I am able. As for those old books... let the Situ family deal with them. That is their power, isn't it? Mr. Situ just said that, I appreciate your kindness! There is something that I have kept in my heart for a long time, and today I might as well tell you clearly that traditional Chinese medicine is indeed more virtual than real. The precious books collected by their family are actually not of great practical use, and you should have seen that to some extent. Some, I am different from other colleagues, traditional, modern, no matter how cutting-edge or bluffing, I only believe in the facts, so... it is of course useful to have old books for reference, if the fate is over, just let it go! Anyway, you think highly of me by calling me, I would like to express my sincere gratitude here! If you need me in the future, please don't hesitate to help me!" "Thank you! Some things... I feel much more comfortable after saying them, Doctor Bian is right, I really believe in fate, I know that your medical skills are very high, not comparable to ordinary famous doctors, it's very late, I won't bother you any more!"

"When are you leaving? I'll come and see you off!" Bian Mu asked specifically.

"Thank you! I won't bother you. My son will drive over to pick me up. I have some luggage and other things. It's more convenient for my family to drive!"

"Is that so... then... have a safe trip!"

"No problem! I also wish you success in your career and a family soon!"

"Thanks to you, I'll keep in touch if I have any questions in the future!"

"Yes, bye!" After saying that, the nanny hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Bian Mu suddenly felt sorry for those precious books.

"If this thing really needs to be auctioned off, based on the behavior of the son I've seen... the starting bid will definitely be one million! Whether I have money or not, I won't buy all of them! What a pity..." Thinking of this, Bian Mu felt very disappointed.

Fortunately, his medical skills have improved, and in many aspects he no longer needs to rely on external forces such as strange books, strange prescriptions, strange people and strange events... After sitting on the sofa in silence for five or six minutes, Bian Mu's heart gradually calmed down, and the matter was over.

Early the next morning, after a quick breakfast, Bian Mu went to the study again, opened his laptop and carefully read the email sent by Su Linwen.

"I was in such a hurry. I read it so hastily last night... After all the fuss, I found out that it was a research report published by a well-known domestic team in a world-renowned journal. I had preconceived ideas and thought it was the result of many years of experiments by a particularly professional team of foreigners! Really... In the future, when I am not energetic enough, I should try to avoid studying this kind of information..." Thinking of this, Bian Mu copied all the information into several text files.

Afterwards, Bian Mu simply classified the data and finally retrieved an important point: red ginseng, Chuanxiong, rhubarb, Panax notoginseng, and Curcuma. A famous brain-awakening Chinese patent medicine with these as main ingredients was seriously questioned!
Based on his intuition, Bian Mu focused his research on two herbs: Panax notoginseng and Curcuma.
