I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 918: Chapter 917: It’s Settled

Why?

Shi Jianbo frowned, wanting to refute but couldn’t find the words to argue.

”This is a matter for the Shi family, not for my Qingyu...” Beisitian said casually, glancing at Shi Jianbo, ”Besides, I never meddle in other people’s family affairs!”

Shi Jianbo’s face darkened, they had no standing to demand the antidote from Beisitian, but wasn’t there ever a time for emergency assistance? Shouldn’t there be mutual help? Moreover, that last sentence glaringly told him that she understood his initial warning.

Shi Jiantong sneered, this Shi Jianbo, it seems the Shi family has stayed in power for too long, to have fostered so many shameless fools, not even realizing what they are.

The Shi family members present looked very displeased, given that another antidote was available and right in front of them, they obviously wanted to take it immediately!

Shi Jianbo’s eyes shifted, realizing he had been too hasty. Despite Beisitian’s youth, she was ultimately the head of Qingyu, using words to trap her definitely wouldn’t work; after all, his position as the Family Head was not yet stable.

”I was mistaken, I sincerely apologize Doctor Bei, our Shi family members are currently waiting for treatment, the antidote I have might be limited, although many are not satisfied with me, I cannot ignore them. Since Doctor Bei has the antidote, I am willing to pay a high price for it!” His words appeared quite generous.

Because when Shi Guang spoke, Beisitian readily agreed, giving them the impression she was easy to converse with. Being young, many felt dealing with her wouldn’t be difficult, repeatedly overlooking her rightful authority.

However, people like Shi Jiantong were not included in that group. These individuals were too arrogant, always feeling superior, and even in their downfall, they couldn’t let go of their pride.

Beisitian smiled faintly, ”Alright.”

Shi Jianbo was energized, as long as Beisitian agreed, his position as Family Head wouldn’t be compromised, ”Doctor Bei is righteous, the Shi family will remember it. Would Doctor Bei accompany me to the inner hall for a detailed discussion on pricing?”

”No need, right here will do.” Beisitian said.

”Very well, Doctor Bei, how much per bottle?” Shi Jianbo asked.

Beisitian glanced at those present, then asked in return, ”Do you know the value of this talismanic water?”

Everyone looked at each other.

Beisitian smiled slightly, ”It seems I need to explain, this talismanic water can immediately neutralize contaminated water without side effects! Being fellow Mystic Doctors, you naturally know it’s not easy to produce this water. So, how much do you think each bottle should cost? Oh, one more thing, only I can produce this talismanic water.”

Shi Jianbo considered Beisitian’s move immature, pushing the problem onto their side, did she think there was no solution?

”Doctor Bei, to be honest, our Shi family’s current situation...”

”Twenty million per bottle, I want cash.”

Before Shi Jianbo could finish, Beisitian interrupted him and continued, ”Also, it would be best if someone of equivalent status speaks. I don’t want to waste too much breath, time is precious.”

Her words were extremely arrogant and aggressive, but what turned Shi Jianbo’s face green was: twenty million per bottle! And in cash!

The medicine was indeed valuable, but it’s worth at most between eight to ten million, why charge twenty million like you’re robbing? Cash, knowing that the Shi family’s total assets don’t provide that much liquidity, she clearly wanted to make things difficult!

”Doctor Bei, isn’t this price too exploitative? Looking at all the families, where can you find twenty million in cash? Even withdrawing everything from the bank wouldn’t provide enough cash!” Shi Jianbo said coldly.

The word cash was too restricting.

Moreover, even if they did withdraw twenty million in cash, it would only buy one bottle!

”You can choose not to buy.” Beisitian said coolly.

Shi Jianbo nearly choked, now Beisitian held the lifeline, he was truly helpless, but twenty million per bottle, he simply couldn’t afford it—selling all fixed assets and auctioning off enterprises couldn’t buy medicine for his loyalists, let alone gain the people’s support.

Now with Beisitian’s take-it-or-leave-it attitude, Shi Jianbo was truly stuck. Kidnap Beisitian? Living too comfortably, this was the Capital City, who’s unaware that Beisitian has two powerful military leaders backing her? Oh no, three, now a certain Zhou is also aligned with her, two generals and a division-level, all with real power, what could he do?!

”Is there no room for negotiation?” Shi Jianbo forced himself to calm down, ”If Doctor Bei could do us this favor, the Shi family and Qingyu would be friends for generations.”

Beisitian laughed coldly, ”Does Qingyu need it?”

Everyone was enraged, how arrogant Qingyu was!

But... they indeed had the backing and confidence... Everyone could only be angry, utterly helpless.

At this moment, someone entered from outside, none other than Wei Zhongxun who had been missing since entering.

”Master, it’s done!” Wei Zhongxun said joyfully.

Beisitian nodded; soon, many Shi family members came in from outside, all controlled by Shi Jianye!

Seeing these people, Shi Jianbo’s expression changed drastically, realizing there must have been a problem with their mobile team, otherwise, there would’ve been reports!

The usually quiet Second Elder Shi Zhongxu saw them, his face instantly became grave, seemed this time gloom was near...

Third Elder Shi Zhongli came in first, followed closely by the Fourth and Fifth Elders, followed by the Shi family’s ”Jian” generation, suddenly the large courtyard seemed crowded.

”Shi Jianbo, confess your sins!” Shi Zhongli shouted angrily.

Despite knowing there would be internal conflict within the Shi family, didn’t expect Shi Jianbo would brazenly imprison them, even more, didn’t expect the Shi family’s mobile team would be absorbed by him, it seemed a major housecleaning was imminent!

Looking at the Shi family members surrounding them, Shi Jianbo laughed coldly several times, knowing the tide had turned; still, his eyes turned slyly, not feeling settled, if this place doesn’t keep him, he’ll find another!

Getting ousted from the Shi family? If he survived the penalties, he’d still be a formidable man!

Shi Jianbo was tied up by the furious Shi family members, the rest pinned to the ground, totaling twenty-something people, who could stand against such numbers? This Shi family internal strife ended like an absurd farce, inexplicable.

But in truth... The Shi family’s mobile team was controlled by Hawkeye, otherwise relying merely on Wei Zhongxun, how could it be as easy as releasing people?

Just after subduing the rebels, the entering Shi family members cried out horribly.
