Chapter 869 — The Same Prescription
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
In Songshan City there was a Medicine King Zhao, whose miraculous healing arts rivaled Hua Tuo's—this news, spread from the lips of the Zhen father and son and deliberately amplified by the cheering voices Li Cihua had dispatched, quickly made Medicine King Zhao's name resound throughout the upper crust of Songshan City. Even many people from out of town came to hear of him...
Yet because of Medicine King Zhao's exorbitant fees, unless it was an incurable illness like Zhen Yingjun's that no one else could treat, hardly anyone else was willing to part with so much money! So Medicine King Zhao had gained fame, but no patients had yet come knocking...
Kang Jingming had obtained the "Medicine King" recipe for Doctor Guan's trauma medicine from Kang Xiaofeng's hands, and he was beside himself with joy! He had never imagined getting the prescription so easily. Had he known, why would he have gone chasing after Guan Xin?
However, Kang Xiaofeng's authority was limited. Acquiring the trauma medicine formula had been easy, but getting the formula for the Life-Extending Detoxifying Pill would likely be far harder! After all, the core secrets Kang Xiaofeng could access were limited. It seemed he would still have to work on Guan Xuewen. Of course, those were matters for later—for now, at least, he had something to report back with.
Kang Jingming returned to the Kang family in high spirits, clutching the prescription for Dr. Guan's trauma medicine. As for Kang Jingming's spoils, the Divine Physician Kang was rather pleased—after all, the formula for the Life-Extending Detox Pill could not be rushed, and the fact that Kang Jingming had brought back Dr. Guan's trauma prescription was a great achievement in itself!
"Just as I thought! This prescription is identical to our Kang family's!" Holding the prescription Kang Jingming had delivered, the Divine Physician Kang was instantly furious. "It must be that little bastard Kang Xiaofeng who presented this formula to Guan Xuewen in exchange for the position of vice president! Greedy, fortune-chasing dog—undermining the great enterprise of the Kang family!"
Of course, the Divine Physician Kang would never doubt the authenticity of this prescription. After all, the Kang family's prescriptions were all kept in his own hands—even Kang Guifeng and Kang Cuipu knew nothing of them, let alone Kang Jingming. The only one who knew the formula was Kang Jinglong, and Kang Jinglong could not possibly have leaked it, for he had already been marked as the Kang family's future head. Why would he sell out his own interests?
Therefore, this prescription must have come from Kang Xiaofeng's hand!
"Exactly. If he could sell the prescription to me for three hundred thousand, then naturally he could have given it to Guan Xuewen for a vice presidency!" Kang Jingming nodded in agreement.
"Hmph! In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The Divine Physician Kang gave a cold laugh.
"Yes, Grandfather—we absolutely cannot let them off easy!" Kang Jingming said.
"Zhaoming, you've done well! Who would have thought—who would have thought it! Grandfather used to think you were nothing but a spoiled young master, but when it comes to getting things done, you're quite formidable!" Having finished cursing Kang Xiaofeng, the Divine Physician Kang's expression turned gratified as he looked at Kang Jingming. "Excellent! If we can obtain their formula before Dr. Guan's product hits the market, we can deal them a heavy blow at their new product launch!"
