Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Li Xiaobao Discharged from the Hospital
Zheng Lin’en was captivated by medicine and had discovered after interacting with Chen Dashan that Dashan’s understanding and research in medicine were several levels above her own.
Even more impressive than the professors she had in university.
If she could learn a few tricks by following Chen Dashan’s side, she was sure to benefit immensely.
"That’s a small matter, as long as you’re willing to learn, I’m willing to teach," Chen Dashan said with a smile.
"Alright, Dashan, I’ll thank you in advance," Zheng Lin’en said with a face full of joy.
Working with a medical expert like Chen Dashan to open a clinic was bound to be a surefire success and a chance to learn medical skills—her future was limitless.
Chen Dashan said, "Lynn, then that’s settled. I’ll go find someone to renovate the clinic."
"Okay," Zheng Lin’en nodded obediently.
That very day, Chen Dashan contacted a renovation company from the county town, introduced by Peng Hu, which was highly efficient. They drove to Stone Village within an hour of getting the call and got down to work.
Chen Dashan left the task to Lynn to manage.
He then went home and found his sister-in-law Zhou Hui.
"Sister-in-law, I’m planning to partner with Doctor Zheng to open a medical hall in the village," Chen Dashan shared his plan with his sister-in-law, "and I’d like you to help me manage the finances."
Zhou Hui was thrilled; Dashan was becoming more accomplished by the day—getting into business and opening a medical hall!
"Dashan, that’s great news, it perfectly matches your field of expertise. Work hard at it—I support you!" Zhou Hui said happily.
"You asked me to help you manage the finances, but my education isn’t very high, and I’m afraid I might hold you back. Finances are not a small matter; you should find a professional financial officer instead."
Chen Dashan said, "It’s alright, sister-in-law, I’ve already asked a friend to enroll you in a business study class so that you can learn some basic knowledge."
He knew his sister-in-law had only completed high school and had spent the past years doing farm work in the village, not understanding much else.
Therefore, he wanted his sister-in-law to have the opportunity to learn and advance as well.
Zhou Hui was very moved; now that Dashan was doing well, he still remembered to look after her.
"Dashan, thank you, but don’t waste money on me. Training classes must be expensive, and your sister-in-law can handle hard labor. I’ll just help you manage the household," Zhou Hui said with a smile.
Chen Dashan waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, that’s no big deal. As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. If you want to learn, go learn; if you don’t want to, just play with computers or phones at the medical hall, do whatever you like. From now on, you don’t have to do any hard labor—our family has money now!"
In the past few days, he had made US$ 100,000 from Village Chief Li Hai and earned another US$ 300,000 from Peng Hu. His net worth was nearing US$ 1 million now, and opening the medical hall would only cost a few thousand.
Moreover, with his current capabilities, making money was not a difficult task.
His sister-in-law was his only family.
Now that he had money, of course, he wanted his family to live a better life.
Seeing Chen Dashan’s generous attitude, Zhou Hui was immensely gratified.
"Alright, I’ll follow your arrangements from now on. You have more insight than your sister-in-law," Zhou Hui said.
"Okay."
Chen Dashan nodded and went to the kitchen to cook.
...
Over the next few days, Chen Dashan and Zhou Hui were busy in the medical hall, overseeing the decoration company as they set everything up in a Chinese style.
Chen Dashan had also come up with a name for the medical hall, calling it Mountain and Sea Medical Hall, incorporating his and his brother’s names.
He had also spent a good sum to commission an antique-style signboard and set up a stone archway at the village’s road entrance for advertisement. It was quite imposing, making the residents of Stone Village feel very proud.
Chen Dashan announced to the public that anyone from the village who came to buy medicine or seek treatment would receive a 50% discount on medical fees.
This act drew the curious gazes of Stone Village residents, with every household praising him, saying that Chen Dashan had made something of himself!
As expected of the only university graduate from Stone Village, and a high-achieving medical student at that, he truly had ability and vision, knowing how to bring benefits to his hometown!
Everyone knew that Chen Dashan had money now, and everyone in the village was singing his praises and even commended Zhou Hui, his sister-in-law, for managing things well.
This made both Chen Dashan and his sister-in-law, Zhou Hui, feel uplifted and vindicated!
Ever since Chen Dahai died in a car accident, and Chen Dashan was made blind and lame by someone, for these three years in the village, the villagers had always looked down on Chen Dashan.
Many people mocked Chen Dashan as a negative example, saying that despite his university education in the big city, he ended up in such a state, not even as good as a farmer growing sweet potatoes. What was the use of so much education?
But now, everyone looked at him with new eyes, and no one dared to look down on Chen Dashan anymore.
Within just a few days, many villagers actively sought to get close to Chen Dashan and Zhou Hui, trying to build a relationship.
This made Chen Dashan inwardly exclaim at the allure of money!
...
While Chen Dashan was busy with his medical hall during these days,
Li Xiaobao was discharged from the Town Hospital, and Mayor Li Hai drove him back to the village from town in a Volkswagen.
Back in the village, Li Xiaobao naturally noticed the changes: a new stone arch was erected at the entrance of the village road, and the small clinic was being renovated into something quite grand, called the Mountain and Sea Medical Hall?
Upon inquiry, he found out it was that crippled Chen Dashan who had set it up? He had even become the owner?
Suddenly, Li Xiaobao felt very displeased!
Li Xiaobao had previously attempted to force himself on Zheng Lin’en in the infirmary, and just when he thought he was about to succeed, Chen Dashan ruined his plan.
Last time, he drugged Chen Dashan’s sister-in-law and Zheng Lin’en, and had them tied to the bed at his home, only for Chen Dashan to burst in unexpectedly.
As a result, he almost got his dick blown off.
Li Xiaobao harbored both hatred and fear towards Chen Dashan in his heart.
He felt that Chen Dashan was his nemesis, a jinx, the one responsible for his dire situation!
In Mayor Li Hai’s home.
Li Xiaobao sat on the sofa, his eyes red with resentment and indignation.
"Dad! You said, you gave that crippled Chen Dashan US$ 100,000 in medical fees?" Li Xiaobao said with envy.
"Why? That crippled man, he’s got a lot of nerve trying to blackmail our money!"
Li Xiaobao had already learned from Li Hai that it was Chen Dashan who had saved him, and he suspected could Chen Dashan be that benevolent?
Furthermore, he learned that Chen Dashan had brazenly demanded US$ 200,000 from his family!
After taking US$ 100,000 and still feeling it was not enough, he dare pressured his own father into writing an IOU. Li Xiaobao was immediately furious!
"Xiao Bao, at that time you were in grave danger, and to save your life, I had no choice but to give Chen Dashan the money," Li Hai said with a pained heart, also very reluctant to have given so much money to Chen Dashan.
Li Xiaobao said bitterly, "This Chen Dashan, he really doesn’t know whether he’s coming or going. He should feel lucky to have treated me—how dare he ask for so much money from our family?"
"And to think Chen Dashan had money to open a medical hall, he must have used our money! We can’t let him get off easy!"
Li Hai nodded, remembering Chen Dashan taking their family’s money and swaggering around the village opening a medical hall, and felt a surge of jealousy!
"Son, you’re right. Does Chen Dashan really think our money is so easy to take? We must teach him a lesson and show him who’s really in charge of Stone Village!"
