The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 289 Revitalizing Traditional Chinese Medicine

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the next moment...

"Poof—"

Chen Xiao exerted a slight force with his left hand, pulling out the iron skewer. At the same time, a flash of spiritual light appeared in his right hand, and he touched the wound on the young man's head.

Then, Chen Xiao pulled out the silver needles and began to pack up his things.

Seeing this, Doctor Zhang couldn't help but come over and asked, "Doctor Chen, what else needs to be done?"

Chen Xiao said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, just wait for the injured person to wake up."

"That's it?"

Doctor Zhang asked in disbelief.

"Otherwise?"

Chen Xiao retorted.

Just now, this injured person was completely beyond saving for Doctor Zhang and the others, but for Chen Xiao, it was no more difficult than a paper cut.

"Really? Doctor Zhang, let's not be fooled by this kid!"

Wang Chunsheng said in a low voice. Although he still had some doubts about Chen Xiao, he was no longer as confident as before.

Doctor Zhang glared at him and said coldly, "Doctor Wang, I hope you can be more respectful to Doctor Chen in the future."

Even so, Doctor Zhang immediately arranged for a comprehensive examination of the mayor's son.

Half an hour later, the examination results came out. Not only had the mayor's son's injury healed, but he also had no sequelae.

Director Lin of the Health Bureau was overjoyed and personally came to Chen Xiao's office to thank him.

"Congratulations, Doctor Chen! You've done a great service this time!"

Director Lin said with a beaming expression, "The patient you just treated is the mayor's son. When the mayor returns, he will definitely reward you handsomely. At the very least, you'll get one of the city's Top Ten Outstanding Youths!"

Chen Xiao frowned slightly and said with a look of indifference, "I said, I don't care whose son he is. In front of me, he's just an ordinary patient, the same as everyone else. If you have nothing else, please leave. I still have work to do."

Jia Bing, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was completely dumbfounded. This Director Chen was too ungrateful!

People couldn't wait to curry favor with figures like the mayor and Director Lin, but he was doing the opposite and chasing them away!

Work could be done anytime, but the director of the Health Bureau wasn't someone you could see at any time!

However, compared to Jia Bing, Director Lin had a much bigger picture. Although Chen Xiao was indifferent and even rude to him, he didn't care at all.

Talented people could be temperamental, but only mediocre people were obsequious and sycophantic all day long.

"Alright, alright, then Doctor Chen, please continue your work. I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell."

Director Lin retreated, and soon after, the three old guys from the Traditional Chinese Medicine department knocked on the door and entered.

The three old guys lowered their heads, their faces extremely embarrassed.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, and they didn't dare to speak either. The men in their forties and fifties stood in front of Chen Xiao like students who had made a mistake.

Chen Xiao pretended to be busy for a while before asking, "Didn't you three want to leave? Why are you back again?"

The faces of the three old guys turned even redder, and they wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Director Chen, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong."

Finally, Li Dafu took the lead and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Actually, it was easy to understand. The reason why he dared to stand up to Chen Xiao before was simply because he thought Chen Xiao was only arrogant because he had a backer.

Who would have thought that Chen Xiao was so arrogant because he was truly capable?

Opening his own store and doing business was good, but he didn't want to lose his job at Jiangcheng Hospital either. So after realizing that he couldn't win against Chen Xiao, he immediately decided to compromise with him.

Besides, he really admired Chen Xiao's medical skills. The way he used the silver needles was simply miraculous!

He, an old guy in his forties and fifties, was completely convinced.

As soon as Li Dafu spoke, Wang Chunsheng and Hou Aiguo also expressed their views.

"Director Chen, I know I was wrong too. Please give me another chance."

"Yes, Director Chen, please keep us. We will definitely work hard in the future."

Hearing these words, Chen Xiao smiled slightly. It seemed that the purpose of the warning had been achieved.

Since the three old guys had sincerely repented, Chen Xiao didn't intend to make things difficult for them. He said casually, "You don't have to beg me. I never said I didn't want you. The right to choose has always been in your hands. As long as you are willing to work diligently, the door of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department will always be open to you!"

The three old guys were surprised when they heard this. Wang Chunsheng asked in disbelief, "Director Chen, do you mean that you're not kicking us out?"

"Are you stupid? Director Chen has already made it so clear, what are you still asking?"

As soon as Wang Chunsheng finished speaking, Li Dafu glared at Wang Chunsheng fiercely. He was afraid that Chen Xiao would regret it.

Hou Aiguo said even more confidently, "Director Chen, we will definitely work hard in the future, heal the wounded and rescue the dying. With Director Chen's leadership, I believe that traditional Chinese medicine will definitely usher in a great revival!"

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and said faintly, "Hehe, revive traditional Chinese medicine? In my opinion, traditional Chinese medicine has never declined, so how can we talk about a great revival? It is only some doctors who are not skilled enough in medicine that have declined, not the great Chinese medicine!"

Hearing these words, the three old guys praised him one after another.

"Director Chen is right. Traditional Chinese medicine is being criticized all because of those doctors who are not skilled in medicine!"

"As expected of Director Chen, with a strategic vision that we can't match!"

……

It wasn't entirely flattery from the three of them, but because they had been immersed in traditional Chinese medicine for most of their lives and had extremely deep feelings for it.

It was just that in the current social opinion, traditional Chinese medicine was gradually being demonized, and the internet was full of theories about the uselessness of traditional Chinese medicine, which made them heartbroken.

And Chen Xiao's words made the small flame in their hearts that had never been extinguished burn again!

It could be said that the old men were feeling youthful again!

Seeing the excited looks on the faces of the three old guys, Chen Xiao smiled and waved his hand, "Alright, alright, go do what you need to do, and stop flattering me!"

After sending the three old guys away, Chen Xiao began to work seriously.

Since Dean Hao had asked him to be the director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, it was obviously not for him to just be there to gain experience or loaf around.

He definitely couldn't let Dean Hao down. During his tenure, he had to at least make the Traditional Chinese Medicine department the trump card department of Jiangcheng Hospital.

Time flew by when he was busy, and before he knew it, it was time to get off work.

However, Chen Xiao forgot about the time when he was busy. He was writing a plan that would make the Traditional Chinese Medicine department the trump card of Jiangcheng Hospital.

And just as he was working at his desk, writing furiously, Wu Fei'er came over.
