Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1539 - 686: Given Too Much
Previously on Online: I Can See Health Bars...
Just when Nanyuan En thought there would be another long wait...
Unexpectedly, Ding Hui quickly finished the second bottle of potion this time.
But her expression was much more indifferent than before.
She glanced at Nanyuan En.
"Interesting, just like shooting an arrow at a target and hitting the core... If it weren’t for the fact that the whole city says this poison was from the Lin Family, I’d suspect your Nanyuan Family is behind it."
With just one sentence, Nanyuan En broke into a cold sweat, feeling restless.
Not because he was exposed, but because the phrase ’shooting an arrow at a target’ was too accurate!
Because their Nanyuan Family had obtained that fragmentary record of the Lin Family’s poison research, they conducted reverse research and targeted studies.
That’s why they could understand the core pathology so quickly, knowing which direction to research, and thus quickly produce the first batch of experimental antidotes.
However, what he didn’t expect was that Ding Hui could directly see through the clues from just this bottle of potion.
Fortunately, Nanyuan En was no longer the inexperienced youth of the past; although his heart was somewhat shaken, he maintained a rather stable appearance.
He smiled, showing his teeth, and said.
"Divine Doctor Ding, you flatter us. Our Nanyuan Family was just lucky, stumbled upon it by accident, and made some progress. But even so, it only works for patients with mild symptoms, unlike you who can immediately bring spring to back and heal even those critically ill, that is the true Divine Doctor, truly..."
Nanyuan En was still speaking when Ding Hui interrupted directly.
"Not the same."
"...Not the same? What’s not the same?" Nanyuan En was stunned.
Ding Hui didn’t speak, but instead shook the empty bottle in her hand, smiled, and said.
"Call your family’s doctor over to chat; it’ll be quicker."
They naturally had doctors.
But those doctors weren’t really skilled, or at least, their skills were somewhat lacking compared to a Divine Doctor like Ding Hui.
If they are called over now, they’d probably expose their level immediately.
But if the other party has demands, and his own side doesn’t respond, how can a collaboration be negotiated?
With a quick turn of the mind, Nanyuan En smiled and said.
"Divine Doctor Ding, meeting our family’s doctor is naturally no problem. But before that, I have something I’d like to discuss with Divine Doctor Ding."
"Speak."
"I heard that Divine Doctor Ding came from Thunder City and is temporarily staying in Da Liang City. What are your plans for the future? With your medical skill, why not join our Nanyuan Family? Our Nanyuan Family has a significant standing in Da Liang City and will surely not disappoint Divine Doctor Ding!"
"Join the Nanyuan Family?" Ding Hui’s gaze drifted towards Fang Yu.
"It’s not impossible, but someone has already talked price with us before you. If your Nanyuan Family can’t offer better terms, I can only say sorry."
Upon hearing this, Nanyuan En immediately felt invigorated.
He wasn’t afraid of Ding Hui making outrageous demands; he was afraid of not having the opportunity to negotiate terms.
What’s more, he came prepared this time, certainly not to disappoint the other party.
Right then, Nanyuan En began to list the conditions like announcing the names of dishes.
From the authority to freely access the Nanyuan Family’s medicinal materials warehouse, to the monthly distribution of silver taels, local assets, precious medicinal materials, demon materials... everything that the Nanyuan Family has, they would offer a certain share.
As this string of big offers dropped, not to mention how Fang Yu and the others reacted, even the local Hong Yanxia was dumbfounded.
This, this, this, what kind of operation is this? The offer is too generous, isn’t it?
That Nanyuan En, who had just begun to take over the family business, showing such boldness truly surprised Hong Yanxia.
But soon, she realized that this wasn’t a decision made solely by Nanyuan En, but rather the agreement of the entire Nanyuan Family.
After all, Nanyuan En alone couldn’t mobilize so many resources.
Because in a big family like the Nanyuan Family, resources such as materials and assets are strictly organized and managed.
Like Nanyuan En’s third uncle, who is in charge of the Nanyuan Family’s military matters, and usually it’s the third elder who represents the family externally.
Further, the family business of the Nanyuan Family is managed by the second elder, which shows clear categorization.
So for Nanyuan En to simultaneously offer resources from various aspects of the Nanyuan Family for conditional negotiation, it’s likely that this has already passed an internal evaluation in the family, allowing resources to be released for this to reach this point.
Thus, although the Nanyuan Family came the latest, they were indeed the most sincere, and the family most likely to succeed in negotiating cooperation with Divine Doctor Ding.
Hong Yanxia felt some bitterness in her heart.
Actually, their Foolish Underworld also wished to keep Divine Doctor Ding, but unfortunately, they had no outstanding advantages in this aspect. They could compete with other forces, but not with the Four Great Families.
Relying on her years of experience living in Da Liang City, Hong Yanxia judged Nanyuan En’s sincerity and the logic behind his automatic listing of conditions, but Fang Yu, being an outsider, couldn’t discern it at all.
He only felt Nanyuan En offered a lot, offered too much.
But...
Fang Yu looked at Ding Hui.
Didn’t Ding Hui say she didn’t want to stay here for long, nor intended to join any forces here?
What’s the meaning now?
Is the offer too good, so they’re staying?
Fang Yu naturally knew that no matter how long Ding Hui stayed, she wouldn’t stay long because eventually they’d travel to Shangjing together.
But staying and interacting with the Nanyuan Family and reaching a transaction agreement, these decisions between staying and leaving weren’t theirs alone anymore, and it would inevitably become much more complicated.
