Chapter 816: Chapter 816: The Way Into the World (Part 2)
“Tie Dan’s mother!”
With force, Ruan Ada pushed open the dilapidated wooden door and rushed into his small house.
“Child’s father?”
The woman in simple clothes sitting by the bed was startled, “How did you co back?”
On the bed to her right, a half-grown child lay with a sallow complexion and skinny limbs, yet his belly was swollen.
It looked very disturbing.
“I bought the dicine!”
Ruan Ada eagerly pulled out the pills from his bosom, “Quick, fetch a bowl of water!”
The woman hurried to pour water, simultaneously asking, “How much did it cost?”
Ruan Ada wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, “Ten bone coins!”
“What?”
The woman was stunned, the light that had just appeared in her eyes quickly dimd, “Can such cheap dicine cure Tie Dan’s illness?”
In the plain thinking of ordinary people, you get what you pay for, and serious illnesses need good dicine.
Their child had a serious illness, and the prescriptions given by the doctors they had consulted before matched this common sense.
Now hearing Ruan Ada ntion spending ten bone coins, the woman simply couldn’t believe that such cheap dicine could cure her child.
“Treat a dead horse as if it were alive,” Ruan Ada said with a wry smile, “I bought it from a newly opened clinic, let’s just give it a try.”
He himself hardly believed the dicine would work!
The woman quickly brought over the water, and Ruan Ada pried open their son’s clenched teeth, stuffed a dark brown pill into his mouth, and then poured water to help him swallow.
After administrating the dicine, the couple looked at each other and sighed at the sa ti.
“Child’s father!”
The woman, with tears streaming down her face, threw herself into Ruan Ada’s arms.
Ruan Ada held his wife tightly, his eyes reddened, “It’s all fate…”
Gurgle~
Just as the couple embraced, mourning their fate, a loud rumbling sound ca from nearby.
Both turned their heads and saw their child on the bed open his eyes and weakly said, “Dad, Mom, I, I need to go poop…”
The woman fell to the ground with a thump.
Ruan Ada, first stunned, then overjoyed, instinctively pulled his wife to her feet, “Quick, get the chamber pot.”
By the ti the woman frantically fetched the chamber pot, their child could hardly hold it any longer.
Then, accompanied by a series of plopping sounds, a foul sll imdiately filled the room.
But neither Ruan Ada nor his wife showed any signs of disgust.
They both shielded their son Tie Dan between them.
Crying tears of joy.
Once Tie Dan had finished, his belly had deflated significantly, his spirits sowhat restored, and he began to cry out in hunger.
Ruan Ada hurriedly asked his wife to empty the chamber pot, while he ran to borrow so leftover rice from the neighbor to make porridge.
“Brother Zhuzi, my Tie Dan has hope now!”
“Really? You got the dicine?”
“Yes, today a new clinic called rcy World Hall opened in the city, they prescribed dicine for my Tie Dan and it only cost ten bone coins.”
“Ten bone coins, how is that possible!”
“Really, why would I lie to you, don’t believe , co and see.”
“Good heavens!”
Because Ruan Ada’s family stirred up quite a commotion, coupled with his borrowing rice porridge from the neighbors, it drew quite the crowd from nearby.
When everyone learned that Ruan Ada had purchased the curative dicine for the Gu Blowing Syndro for just ten Bone Coins, they found it unbelievable and suspected Ruan Ada was deceiving them.
It wasn’t until Ruan Ada swore an oath and they saw Tie Dan looking healthy and heartily drinking his porridge that the neighbors beca sowhat convinced.
But there were also quick-witted individuals who, upon learning rcy World Hall’s address, imdiately dashed off.
Sickness and death were common, life for the common folk was tough, and illness was routine; the cost of dicine was too high, and people would endure unless absolutely necessary before seeking dical treatnt.
Now that they heard about such a conscientious dical facility, how could households with sick family mbers remain indifferent!
Taiwu City is divided into Upper, Middle, and Lower City Districts, with Ruan Ada’s ho located in the Lower City District, densely populated with common folk, so the news spread quickly.
At the sa ti, in the Pharmacy Alchemy Room at the back of rcy World Hall, Wang Chen, who was sitting in front of the Pill Furnace, had a glint in his eye.
He thoughtfully paused his work.
The attendant next to him cautiously asked, “Immortal Master?”
Wang Chen ca to his senses, smiled, and said, “It’s nothing, continue.”
Just at that mont, he had once again sensed the mystical spiritual thoughts from the unknown.
This assured Wang Chen that the path he had chosen to enter the world was the correct one!
He threw all the dicine he had just prepared into the Pill Furnace in front of him.
Previously in the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Haotian Realm, Wang Chen had practiced Talisman Crafting and Artifact Refining at a quite high level, but he had never involved himself in Alchemy.
However, the Pills in this world were on a completely different level from those in the Cultivation World.
Wang Chen progressed from a novice to a master in just a few days.
It rely consud more ingredients.
Firstly, his Cultivation Level was extrely high, allowing him to perfectly master the control of heat and timing in alchemy, ensuring no mistakes at any step.
Secondly, Wang Chen had guidance from the true alchemy master, Elder Yao.
And the Pills he refined were not miraculous or divine Pills, but all were aid at various common ailnts.
The dical practitioners of this world categorized illnesses as cold, hot, Gu, poison, tuberculosis, miasma, deficiency, decline, injuries, swelling, and so forth.
Wang Chen purchased a large amount of dicinal materials through the Mo Family, then used Elder Yao’s formulas to refine batches of Pills targeted at different ailnts, which he then sold at rcy World Hall.
Although rcy World Hall had been established for only a short period, the earnest Wang Chen was undoubtedly formidable.
He toiled day and night in the Alchemy Room, devoting all his energy to the production of Pills.
With increasing proficiency, Wang Chen produced more and more Pills of increasingly higher quality!
But he spent so much ti and energy on crafting Pills not for the sake of making money.
On the contrary, Wang Chen had established a “rob the rich to help the poor” principle for rcy World Hall, setting the dicine cost based on the patient’s financial situation.
As for the consultation fees of resident doctors, he waived them all!
This way, even the most impoverished people could afford to see a doctor and buy dicine.
It was foreseeable that as rcy World Hall’s reputation spread, its losses would deepen.
But Wang Chen didn’t care at all.
Because he was never short of money—Elder Yao’s secret vault had plenty of money, enough that it could never be depleted!
Soon, another batch of Pills was ready, and a thick fragrance filled the room.
“Immortal Master, Immortal Master!”
Right then, an attendant dashed in from outside, frantically saying, “Outside, outside, a lot of people have co, blocking the streets!”
Wang Chen smiled slightly.
He had anticipated such a situation and had made thorough preparations!
