Chapter 9 Million Rupiah Gift
- After waiting for about fifteen minutes, the store clerk finally finished a round of the game and placed his phone on the table. After taking a sip of water, he casually asked, "What medicine do you want to buy?"
- Brian handed the prescription to the store clerk, whose eyes sparkled after seeing the names of the medicinal plants listed in the prescription.
- All the medicinal plants listed in the prescription were of high quality and very expensive. At least he could earn millions of Rupiah in commission from this prescription.
- "Are you really going to buy all these medicinal plants?" the clerk asked in disbelief.
- "Yes, but I'm not sure if your pharmacy has all these medicinal plants," Brian replied.
- "Yes, we do. Your store has all kinds of medicinal plants," the clerk's attitude suddenly became polite, and with a smile, he said, "Please wait a moment, I will prepare these medicinal plants for you."
- Soon, the clerk lined up all the medicinal plants on the table. Brian checked all the medicinal plants, they were all complete and of good quality.
- "How much?" Brian asked.
- The seller took out his calculator and started calculating the total cost of all the medicinal ingredients. "The total is 506,400,000. Cash or card?" he asked.
- "What? That expensive?"
- Brian was very surprised. Even though he studied TCM at the Jasin Medical University, he didn't really understand the prices of medicinal plants.
- Initially, he thought that the 60,000,000 in his pocket was a large amount, but now it was not enough. He didn't know that just making one basic foundation pill required such a large cost.
- "Sorry, I don't have that much money," Brian said awkwardly.
- The clerk's smile suddenly disappeared, and coldly he said, "No money? Why did you come if you don't have money? Are you playing with me?"
- "Sorry, I didn't expect the medicinal plants to be this expensive," Brian tried to explain.
- "Why did you come to buy medicine if you don't know the price?" the clerk said in an unhappy tone. "Let's do this, so I don't waste my time, just buy a few of these medicinal plants."
- Brian said, "I can't do that. This is a prescription to make one medicine, there can't be any missing medicinal plants."
- The prescription he showed was just one dose of the basic foundation pill, he couldn't make the pill if the ingredients were not enough.
- The clerk frowned and said, "Then lower the quality a bit. Just so you know, the price of a ten-year-old medicinal plant can be ten times higher than a two-year-old one."
- "I can't, the age of the medicinal plants I wrote in the prescription is already the lowest," Brian replied.
- The clerk went into a rage after hearing Brian's words. "This way is not possible, that way is not possible either. Are you really here to play with me?"
- "Sorry, I don't have enough money right now. I will come back after gathering enough money," Brian said, feeling guilty.
- "Puih, you poor ghost, don't know when you'll be able to gather enough money to buy this medicine." The seller put away all the medicinal plants, "This is all my fault, just look at your beggar-like clothes, I shouldn't have bothered to take out these medicinal ingredients for you."
- The employee was very angry because he didn't get the commission he was hoping for.
- Brian frowned, "Why are you talking like that? I already apologized for not bringing enough money, besides you are an employee of this store, preparing medicine is your duty, why are you complaining?"
- "Oh, now you're getting angry?" Suddenly the employee was furious, he said while patting his chest, "Don't you know where you are? This is Beika Clinic, our boss is Mr. Xandro. The people who usually come to our clinic are rich or officials, not a place for poor people like you to visit."
- "You..."
- Just as Brian was about to scold the employee, he held back because he remembered that he was the heir of the Ancient Medical Academy, not needing to argue with materialistic people like him.
- Thinking about that, Brian turned and intended to leave the store, but suddenly he saw a large red notice posted on the wall that read "Billion Rupiah Prize".
- He looked down, there were a few sentences there "I, Xandro Zifka, coincidentally obtained the Magical Recipe of Hua Tuo, but the recipe is not complete, there are three medicinal plants that are not fully written. Anyone who can complete these three medicinal plants and get confirmation of their authenticity from me, will receive a billion rupiah prize."
- The required medicinal plants for the Magical Recipe of Hua Tuo were also written, but there were only fifteen types of medicinal plants there, at the back there were three empty types of medicinal plants, which were definitely waiting for someone to fill them.
- Brian was very interested in the prize offered, he knew Xandro, the boss of Beika Clinic, a well-known senior in Chinese medicine in the city of Jasin.
- Brian was familiar with the Magical Recipe of Hua Tuo.
- Based on the inheritance records of the Ancient Medical Academy, Hua Tuo was a graduate of the Ancient Medical Academy, but he was only an external student.
- The Magical Recipe of Hua Tuo was also not created by Hua Tuo but by the Ancient Medical Academy.
- Unexpectedly, an opportunity like this came when he was thinking about how to get money to buy medicinal plants to make the basic foundation pill.
- Brian immediately took out his pen to fill in the 3 empty medicinal plants.
- "Hey, what are you doing? Who told you to scribble here?"
- Brian had only written two types of medicinal plants when suddenly the employee came and pushed him aside.
- After being disturbed several times, Brian finally started to get emotional and said angrily, "What are you doing?"
- "That's what I wanted to say to you, do you even know where you are? This is Beika Clinic, not a place where you can scribble as you please," the employee replied.
- Brian answered angrily, "Isn't this a competition? Why can't I write here?"
- "Are you so poor that you've gone crazy? Sure, the billion rupiah prize is great, but what does it have to do with you?" the employee replied, belittling Brian.
- At the beginning when this notice was posted here, many famous fortune tellers came to try, but in the end, they all failed.
- There are so many types of medicinal plants in the world, guessing these three types of medicinal plants is even more difficult than winning the lottery multiple times.
- Even Mr. Xandro couldn't fill those three types of medicinal plants, so many famous sinse failed, he didn't believe that this poor young man could succeed.
- "Isn't this an open competition, so anyone can try," Brian said coldly.
- "Indeed, it is meant to be tried by people, but not just anyone can scribble here, do you think billions of rupiah can be taken by anyone? If you can fill the gaps in the Magic Recipe then I am the reincarnation of Hua Tuo," the employee replied.
- "Why are you making such a fuss, Laurento?"
- At that moment, a dignified old man emerged from the Chinese medicine treatment room.
- Although the man's hair was already white, his face was very bright and energetic, he was the boss of Beika Clinic, Xandro, Mr. Xandro.
- "Mr. Xandro, you have arrived."
- The seller named Launtaro immediately calmed down upon seeing Xandro's arrival.
- "What's going on, why are you shouting in the store?"
- As Xandro spoke, he glanced at the notice board, instantly shocked to see two medicinal plants written by Brian.
- "Mr. Xandro, this poor young man has no money and is causing trouble in the store, he even scribbled on our notice board..."
- Launtaro kept talking incessantly and did not pay attention to his employer's expression.
- Xandro completely ignored Launtaro, and with great enthusiasm, he said to Brian, "Did you write these two medicinal plants?"
- Before Brian could answer, Launtaro interrupted, "He's the one who wrote randomly there, if I hadn't stopped him in time, he would have written the third medicinal plant. Mr. Xandro, don't be angry, I will erase it immediately..."
- Before Launtaro could finish his words, Xandro slapped him, "You insolent! Quickly apologize to this young man."
- "What?" Launtaro was stunned and fell silent.
- Once again, Xandro scolded him, "Can't you hear? Quickly apologize to this young man."
- "I..." Launtaro still didn't understand what was happening here, but he couldn't ignore Mr. Xandro's words, with full respect he said, "I apologize."
- "Today I finally understand how big stores oppress their customers, your banners mean the sky knows everything you do, these words are very inappropriate for your clinic!"
- "I apologize, I did not discipline my employees properly, I apologize to you again."
- After Xandro apologized, he then asked eagerly, "Can you really complete this Hua Tuo's Magic Recipe?"
