Taoist Master Leaves the Mountains: All My Senior Sisters Love Me

Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Business



"Divine Doctor, you don't have to be too modest. I have witnessed your medical skills, and they can truly be called unrivaled. However, I have yet to ask for your esteemed name," Tan Long was very polite to Wang Ye.

Moreover, he didn't seem like the usual riffraff; he appeared to be quite cultured.

"Wang Ye."

"So it's Doctor Wang. Rest assured, during this medicinal ingredients conference, I guarantee everything will go smoothly for you. If anyone dares to sabotage you behind your back, I, Tan Long, will be the first to disagree," Tan Long declared, thumping his chest.

However, his words made Wang Ye somewhat puzzled. Could it be that he came to the medicinal ingredients conference specifically to safeguard him?

"Sir, what do you mean by this? Though I've treated you before, you've paid for it, so why go out of your way to help me?" Wang Ye asked, confused.

Tan Long smiled faintly and explained, "Doctor Wang, actually, I also have a favor to ask of you, which is why I specifically came to see you."

"What is it?"

Tan Long looked around, stepped closer to Wang Ye, and said, "Doctor Wang, may I have a word in private?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye looked back at Chen Li.

Seeing that Tan Long had no ill intentions, Chen Li nodded.

Thus, Wang Ye and Tan Long walked to a secluded corner together.

"Doctor Wang, I have a business proposition for you. Are you interested?" Tan Long whispered to Wang Ye.

"Business? I don't do business," Wang Ye flatly refused.

"Doctor Wang, the 'business' I'm talking about is treating patients! There's a top-tier family in Yun City, the Fang Family. Their patriarch has been paralyzed in bed for many years. They've consulted countless renowned doctors, but no one has been able to treat him. If you can cure him, you could make a fortune," Tan Long explained.

The Fang Family of Yun City is truly a prestigious family. If he could cure Patriarch Fang, he could gain a lot, both in terms of money and power.

As the intermediary, Tan Long would naturally benefit as well. Therefore, he referred to it as a business deal.

"Treating and saving people is our duty as doctors. If Patriarch Fang needs assistance, I can certainly take a look," Wang Ye agreed.

"Good, that's settled then. At eight o'clock tonight, I'll take you to the Fang Family."

Seeing that Wang Ye agreed, Tan Long was very excited. In his view, Wang Ye's medical skills had a good chance of curing Patriarch Fang.

"Alright, I'll wait for you tonight at Peerless Medical Hall."

"No problem, I'll be leaving now! If you encounter any trouble at the medicinal ingredients conference, just find me. If that Yang Junsheng dares to do anything to you, let me know, and I'll handle it for you."

For the sake of getting Wang Ye to cure Patriarch Fang, Tan Long was going all out.

Going head-to-head with the Yang Family wasn't necessarily a wise decision. With his current strength, Tan Long might not have the upper hand. However, Tan Long didn't care—missing out on such an opportunity would be regrettable.

After Tan Long left, Chen Li came to Wang Ye's side.

"Junior Brother, what did Tan Long tell you?" Chen Li asked.

Wang Ye, of course, did not hide anything and replied directly, "He asked me to treat a certain Patriarch Fang; I agreed to it!"

"Ah? Junior Brother, how could you agree to that!" Chen Li was immediately alarmed.

Wang Ye found Chen Li's reaction peculiar. It was just agreeing to see a patient after all. What was there to be surprised about?

"Senior Sister, what's wrong? Is there a problem with this matter?" Wang Ye asked, puzzled.

"Ah!" Chen Li sighed and explained, "Junior Brother, you have just descended from the mountain and are completely unaware of the situation in Yun City. The illness of Patriarch Fang isn't just a common disease."

"Is it a complicated and rare illness? That's fine too. Master has taught me quite a few prescriptions for treating complicated diseases!"

Although Wang Ye didn't dare claim he could cure all diseases, he absolutely believed that his medical skills were worth a try.

"That's not what I meant. The illness of Patriarch Fang was caused by someone deliberately harming him. There are power struggles and conflicts of interest involved. Once you get involved, it will be troublesome," Chen Li said, frowning.

As the head of Peerless Medical Hall, Chen Li had also treated Patriarch Fang. His illness wasn't difficult to cure, but the power struggle within the Fang Family was fierce. Thus, Chen Li had also received threats from some members of the Fang Family, which made her afraid to fully cure Patriarch Fang. In the end, she feigned a lack of medical expertise and gave up on treating Patriarch Fang.

"Senior Sister, I don't understand these things!" Wang Ye said somewhat bewildered.

On the mountain, Wang Ye had never encountered any scheming or manipulation, so he was completely unaware of these power struggles and monetary transactions.

"Junior Brother, don't worry about it too much. When the time comes, just refuse the matter," Chen Li said, as that was the only solution she could think of now.

She definitely couldn't allow her junior brother to get entangled in such a complicated matter.

Wang Ye thought for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Senior Sister."

"Mmm, the selection competition is about to start. Get ready and perform well."

Soon, the selection competition for the Herbal Conference officially began.

Like the Treasure Appraisal Conference, the selection for the Herbal Conference was also carried out in groups. The content of the competition was simple, involving the identification of herbs and recognition of prescriptions.

For Wang Ye, this posed no difficulty at all.

Thus, Wang Ye passed the selection competition quite easily. The final competition he would participate in was scheduled for the day after tomorrow.

It coincided well with the Treasure Appraisal Conference, scheduled at different times.

Possibly, this was to make it more convenient for the audience, as holding both competitions simultaneously would force the audience to choose only one to attend.

After the selection competition ended, Wang Ye and Chen Li were preparing to leave when they encountered Yang Junsheng and his group again at the door.

"Yo, it's you again, you weakling! Where's your backer? Where did Tan Long go?" Zhou Tianhao became arrogant again seeing Tan Long was not around.

Wang Ye and Chen Li didn't bother with Zhou Tianhao and left straight away.

This time, however, Yang Junsheng blocked their path.

"Wang Ye, your supporter is Tan Long? I can tell you clearly, Tan Long is just a weakling too! Following him, you're bound to be doomed," Yang Junsheng said, with an air of superiority.

But he seemed to forget that Wang Ye's senior sister was Xia Qingxin, the most powerful businesswoman in Yun City.

"I'm aware of my own matters, no need for you to worry!" Wang Ye responded indifferently and left with Chen Li.

Watching Wang Ye's retreating figure, Yang Junsheng scoffed disdainfully, then said, "Tianhao, find someone to secretly take this guy out! It's better to eliminate future troubles. This time, make sure it's clean, got it?"

"Cousin, don't worry, it won't go wrong this time," Zhou Tianhao immediately responded, his eyes revealing a cunning aura.
