121: Chapter 121: Antique Stone Bracelet (Request for Recommendation Tickets) 121: Chapter 121: Antique Stone Bracelet (Request for Recommendation Tickets) Liu Chongyang shook his head with a sigh, pointed at the two and said, “How can you two be so muddled?
Who do you think my master is?
Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad?
Directly fed the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill, and then he just comes back to life?
Even if it were Lord Lao Zi, reviving the dead would need time.
The young master’s lack of awakening is just a matter of time!”
It was true, but that country boy didn’t look the least bit like a doctor; no matter what, Qian Nengde and his wife could not believe that Ning Fan could revive their son.
So, they kept accusing Ning Fan, believing that his sole purpose was to deceive Liu Chongyang and then leave.
“Medical Saint Liu, there’s no use arguing.
I too want to witness God Doctor Ning’s medical technique—go out and invite God Doctor Ning back.”
Qian Wujun knew that this was not the solution; in the end, his grandson’s awakening was the only thing that would shut up the two brats and make them admit their wrongs.
Moreover, if his grandson could not be awakened, then it would mean dealing with a quack who needed to be dismissed.
But if he did wake up, they needed to find God Doctor Ning and treat him well.
No matter what, they couldn’t just not look for God Doctor Ning.
All that was left was to wait, wait for Qian Haitao to wake up.
Qian Nengde glared at the old man Qian Wujun with blame, but he did not dare to challenge Qian Wujun’s authority.
He muttered under his breath, wishing he could immediately capture and dispose of Ning Fan.
“Why hasn’t he woken up yet?
If his treatment is delayed, I’ll have his life!” Mu Zhenqin became more and more anxious as she waited, her expression extremely vivid.
“He’s awake, he’s awake!” the nurse in the intensive care unit suddenly shouted excitedly.
Instantly, everyone present was shocked.
They couldn’t accept the result for a moment, finding it hard to recover from their previous thoughts.
When they saw Qian Haitao truly awaken, it was like thunder striking beside them.
They were suddenly struck with shock, their expressions complex.
How could he be awake?
Wasn’t he the man even Medical Saint Liu couldn’t save?
How could that young kid go in for just ten minutes and now be directly awake?
That Ning fellow really is a Divine Doctor!
Everyone present came to their senses, clapping their hands and stomping their feet, full of regret for their recent actions.
This was a bona fide Divine Doctor, an even more extraordinary Divine Doctor than Medical Saint Liu Chongyang—they cursed themselves for having sneered at him.
“God Doctor Ning is truly Hua Tuo reincarnated, bringing the dead back to life…”
“God Doctor Ning’s medical technique is supremely exquisite…”
“God Doctor Ning…”
The intensive care unit became lively in an instant, with those who were previously too outspoken now turning to praise Ning Fan, wishing they could lift him up to the skies.
“This… this… how could this be?”
Qian Nengde and his wife were dumbfounded.
So, that guy really was a Divine Doctor…
The two slumped to the ground, their gazes blank.
Finally, Qian Wujun witnessed the medical technique of Ning Fan, the disciple of Guiguzi.
Looking at the two sitting on the ground, he was instantly furious, so angry he wanted to kill his son and daughter-in-law.
These two actually had the gall to make things difficult for God Doctor Ning, throwing away the Qian Family’s face and thoroughly offending God Doctor Ning!
“If you two don’t apologize to that Divine Doctor, don’t bother coming back!” Qian Wujun thundered, pointing directly at Qian Nengde and his wife.
Liu Chongyang sneered on the side, feeling extremely pleased and proud to have such a formidable master.
He also enjoyed seeing Qian Nengde and his wife pay the price for this.
“Father, do you think God Doctor Ning will forgive us?” Qian Nengde and his wife naively asked.
“Go invite him back, and if God Doctor Ning doesn’t return, don’t you two bother coming back either!”
Qian Wujun was furious.
Joking aside, at their level of stature, to curry favor with such a Divine Doctor was more important than a fortune of ten thousand gold!
This was their future lifeline!
…
Leaving the hospital, Ning Fan didn’t forget to look back at it and couldn’t help but shake his head.
The Qian Family was unbearably foolish, not even up to par with the old fellow Liu Chongyang.
Ning Fan wasn’t in a hurry to return, strolling along a broad avenue and, before he knew it, he found himself on an antiques street.
The antique street was bustling with activity, with calls from vendors and the sounds of bargaining echoing endlessly, and each antique stall was crowded with people.
Ning Fan knew that these so-called antique stalls were simply trading in the name of antiques, dealing in fake goods for the most part, with truly valuable antiques being quite rare, all aimed at fleecing the uninformed.
He had no interest in antiques and was just passing through this street.
At that moment, a vendor at a small stall was energetically hawking his goods.
“Take a look, have a gander, genuine goods at fair prices, no deception young or old, each item a treasure, each item the real deal.
If it’s fake, you get ten times your money back.
Look at this bracelet, look at this blue and white porcelain, placing it in your home adds prestige, wearing it even more so wards off evil, and it beautifies you as well.”
Ning Fan chuckled.
Most people who came to the antique street were there to have some antiques for show, and of course, some liked to show them off when going out.
Soon, a young couple was attracted by the vendor’s pitch.
The woman had an air of wealth about her, wearing a face that scorned the poor and loved the rich, and her interest was piqued by a stone bracelet at the stall.
Seeing the woman’s expression, the vendor knew she was tempted and started pitching even harder.
“Beautiful lady has good eyesight, picking out the most valuable item on my stall at first glance.
This stone bracelet is crafted from jade, not a single flaw in it, and it matches your perfect, flawless face.
Wearing it on your wrist, I guarantee you will become even more beautiful.”
“How much?” the woman asked directly.
The vendor put on a troubled expression as if he were struggling with the price for a long time before he made up his mind and said,
“For someone as discerning as you, I’d really want to give you a fifty percent discount, five thousand!”
Immediately, the couple snorted at the vendor and shook their heads.
“Just this?
Five thousand?
Are you kidding me?”
the man said with disdain.
“Vendor, do you take us for ignorant buyers?
This stone bracelet is nothing but a fake; I thought the design was nice, which is why I considered buying.
But isn’t your asking price a bit unreasonable?”
The woman also looked down on the vendor’s steep prices with disdain.
“This…”
The vendor was somewhat deflated; indeed, he was selling fakes, but that’s how it went with the rows of stalls on the antique street — hardly any of them sold the real deal.
And it wasn’t easy to fleece a few customers; if they didn’t hike up the prices, they’d end up with nothing but the cold northwest wind to eat.
The vendor looked at the young couple, quickly considering an appropriate price in his mind.
But the young couple were getting impatient and were about to leave.
Just then, Ning Fan passed by the stall, and the Nine Souls Jade at his chest suddenly warmed, as if it had sensed something.
Ning Fan was taken aback.
Had it discovered something?
Could there be a treasure?
Ning Fan was delighted and glanced at the antique stall, but there was nothing on the stall worth lingering over.
However, the response from the Nine Souls Jade was odd, and Ning Fan needed to confirm.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a gleam flashed through them, sweeping across the entire stall.
Immediately, he spotted the stone bracelet that the young couple had taken an interest in, and it was no ordinary piece.
“How much for this bracelet?”
Ning Fan stepped forward and inquired of the vendor.
“Five thousand.”
The vendor, seeing Ning Fan’s impoverished appearance, guessed that he was likely buying the bracelet to save face.
This kind of person certainly couldn’t be as knowledgeable as the other couple; he could just as well con and fleece him thoroughly.
The middle-aged vendor, seeing that Ning Fan wasn’t scared off by the price, said with a sly look,
“Young man, this stone bracelet is the real deal.
Take it home for your sweetheart, and I guarantee it will make your nights…
How about this, since you really seem to want it, take it for four thousand five hundred.”
Ning Fan picked up the stone bracelet, felt its warm breath in his hand, and noticed the bracelet was covered in tiny grains, making it seem a bit rough.
That was not a concern; what mattered was what lay inside.
While the bracelet’s value wasn’t very high, five thousand was definitely not a loss.
