Medical Master

Chapter 1314 I'll Wait and See!

Helplessly…

Jiang Mengjie could only turn back and tell Fang Qiu about this situation.

After Fang Qiu heard her report, his face turned gloomy.

"Contact the other Chinese Medicine companies, those you haven't contacted yet."

Fang Qiu said.

"Okay."

Jiang Mengjie nodded and agreed.

This time, she didn't leave. Instead, she called one company after another in Fang Qiu's office.

Aside, Fang Qiu watched her calling.

In the end…

Jiang Mengjie finished a round of calls. Though no company directly rejected her, none gave a definite answer.

Fang Qiu witnessed the whole process.

His face became colder and colder.

"First, they incriminated us with planted evidence. Then, they cut off the supply. They must have already made audacious plans."

Fang Qiu sneered.

Nearby…

"It's not working."

Jiang Mengjie said with a worried face after she contacted all the companies.

"Wait."

Fang Qiu comforted her with a smile. "It's okay. I've asked Mr. Zhao Shanlin to investigate the situation in the Chinese Medicine market. Let's wait for his investigation result first."

"Then what about these doctors in the countryside?"

Jiang Mengjie frowned and said, "Now all the doctors in the countryside are waiting for us to solve the problem, and so are many of the patients."

"I see."

Fang Qiu thought it over and said, "Let them give the patients the prescriptions and ask them to buy the medicine elsewhere. Don't charge the consultation fee. In this way, our patients can save some money to buy medicine. As for the doctors, the Foundation will compensate them according to the number of patients they had seen."

"This seems to be the only way out."

Jiang Mengjie nodded in agreement.

She knew it.

It was the best solution at present, but the Foundation would be under a great deal of pressure.

This method meant the Foundation would have to support these 60,000 doctors.

In just one day, merely the consultation fees of these doctors would cost them a lot of money!

Anyone else wouldn't have the courage like Fang Qiu.

After all…

Fang Qiu didn't set up the Foundation for money but for the doctors and patients!

Next…

Jiang Mengjie issued a notice instantly.

Over here…

Fang Qiu left the Beijiang cultivation base and rushed again to the site of the incident in Blackhill Gate Village.

Upon arrival, Fang Qiu went straight to the police station.

He was here to obtain all the evidence!

Before this…

Fang Qiu made up his mind: no matter how wretched he felt, he had to restrain his temper for the sake of his doctors, the patients in the countryside, the traditional Chinese medicine market, and the development of Chinese Medicine.

But now…

Even after he swallowed the humiliation, he wouldn't bring peace to the world.

His opponents had set up a series of interlocking traps and were waiting for him to step into them.

Fang Qiu was notably cool-headed.

Faced with this situation, he knew very well the consequences: his continuous concessions and compromises would only worsen the matter.

Since they pressed hard against him step by step…

Fang Qiu could only play with them by not overturning the tables.

"Let's see who will have the last laugh!"

He entered the police station.

Fang Qiu who knew his way around this police station went straight to Chief Pan's office.

When he saw Fang Qiu, Pan Mingrui was very puzzled. "Why is Fang Qiu here again?"

It turned out that Fang Qiu needed all the evidence for this case. Pan Mingrui wanted to refuse his request. However, on second thought, he recalled that Fang Qiu could even mobilize the police station in Yang Cheng. Obviously, he had some connections with the higher-ups. Otherwise, the police in Yang Cheng wouldn't hand over the suspect to him for interrogation.

That was to say…

...

The higher-ups must have acquiesced to Fang Qiu's actions in the past few days.

At the thought of this, Pan Mingrui handed over all the evidence he had found to Fang Qiu.

With the evidence…

Fang Qiu immediately set off to the base.

Meanwhile…

When he received all the evidence…

Under Jiang Mengjie's arrangements, the Foundation implemented a brand-new policy for doctors in the countryside.

Before this…

Doctors in the numerous countryside clinics were quite worried.

All their Chinese medicinal herbs had been sealed, and they received no new herbs. Worse still, these patients wouldn't leave even after they received the prescriptions. They stayed and waited for the medicine.

After all, traditional Chinese medicine in the clinic was cheap.

...

Since they couldn't get low-price medicine, many patients refused to pay the consultation fees. Doctors who worked in the clinics were now in a very awkward situation and they did not know what to do.

For these doctors, the most stressful part was…

After knowing they couldn't get the medicine, many villagers were unwilling to queue. They gathered in the clinic and waited to see the doctor until they could buy the medicine. Some of them were seriously ill.

Whenever there were any dangerously ill patients, these doctors could only help and examine them as soon as possible. They could ask someone to buy medicine for them from other pharmacies or do some simple treatments, like acupuncture.

Under these distressful circumstances…

All the doctors in the countryside felt very uncomfortable.

As soon as the subsidy policy of the Foundation was implemented, all the doctors in the countryside clinics were considerably relieved.

These clinics were back on track.

Since the medical fees were waived, the patients were willing to queue up to see the doctor.

These doctors got busy gradually. In their hearts, they couldn't help praising Fang Qiu.

They had just found a job that could fulfill their dreams. Their greatest dread was that they might be out of work.

Now…

When they saw how Fang Qiu reacted so actively, plus the Foundation's new policy, they finally felt relieved. In their hearts; they had greater confidence in Fang Qiu than before.

Soon…

With the implementation of the Foundation's policy, the countryside clinics began to return to normal. Those pharmaceutical companies that had been paying attention to this matter soon heard the news.

Half an hour later…

The leaders of major pharmaceutical companies once again gathered in an online conference room.

"Everyone knows the news, right?"

At the beginning of the meeting, a man with gray hair said, "Three Billion Foundation has implemented a new subsidy policy. They waived the medical fees to compensate their patients for the recent medicine price increase. Meanwhile, they offered subsidies to the doctors."

"What a surprise. Fang Qiu is quite tenacious. We cornered him, yet he didn't even think about begging us!"

"I did receive a call from the Foundation."

"Who didn't get it? They called every one of us."

"Is Fang Qiu going to pay for the battle against us?"

"He can afford it."

"Indeed. Three Billion Foundation is not his only investment. He could pay the price. And if he is determined to confront us head-on, he can even support the Foundation with his money for a few years. During this period, he can plant herbs and open an industrial chain. In particular, his recent deeds will help him to gain more favor from the public. One day, he might succeed in making a complete supply chain of cultivation, production, diagnosis, and sales. In the meantime, the public's love for him would reach its peak. At that time, not to mention one of us, all our companies and the whole industry would have to face tremendous impacts and challenges!"

"That's a possibility a few years later. It's hard to say whether he can hold on for a few more years!"

"That's right. If he wants to achieve that, we should prevent him from achieving his goal!"

All of them were engaged in a heated discussion…

"Okay."

The middle-aged man with gray hair, who was the leader, suddenly laughed and said, "Since everyone has decided, I'll give you a suggestion. What do you think?"

"Now, Fang Qiu is supporting the doctors and patients with his money. Targeting these doctors is now meaningless. Although the Three Billion Foundation has many doctors, the number is limited. Thus, we will have to put him under tremendous pressure and make him helpless and exhausted. Then, he'll have to ask for our help!"

"Therefore, there is no need for us to continue to target the Three Billion Foundation or those doctors. Patients are our greatest leverage!"

"Medicinal herbs are essential to patients. Fang Qiu waived the treatment fees to lower the medical cost of patients. Let's raise the prices of all the medicinal herbs. In this way, those patients in the countryside can no longer afford the medicine!"

At this point…

The middle-aged man couldn't help laughing in smug satisfaction.

"Great."

A young man applauded and said, "Mr. Luo, you really live up to your reputation as the man who led the Qiming Pharmaceutical Company to the top of the pharmaceutical industry. It's a brilliant idea."

"That's a good idea. All our companies hold almost 80% of the Chinese Medicine market. If we join forces, we can all raise the prices!"

"A great measure indeed. But if prices are raised too high, I'm afraid the government will intervene."

As soon as he mentioned the government…

Everyone froze. A sudden silence fell over the room.

"How about this?"

Mr. Luo said with a cold smile, "Send someone to contact Fang Qiu and lay our cards on the table. He can't blame us for doing that if he still doesn't give in."

"Even if the government comes to us, we can give them an explanation: since Fang Qiu and Three Billion Foundation refuse to cooperate, we can only cancel the preferential policies for drugs. After all, the incident of low-quality drugs has just occurred. We are afraid that something will go wrong!"

All the people in the conference room heard his suggestion.

They nodded in agreement.

The meeting was over.

The group of people went to make their arrangements.

On the other side…

Fang Qiu, who had just returned to the cultivation base, heard the latest news — the major Chinese Medicine companies would withdraw the drug discount policies and even raise the prices of Chinese medicinal herbs.

"Bang!"

The moment Fang Qiu heard the news, he couldn't help but hit the desk and his face turned gloomy.

He never realized…

These businessmen could be so evil-minded.

The current medicine prices were already very high, but how could they push up the prices brazenly?

They were driving these patients into a desperate situation!

Fang Qiu gasped in shock.

In a burst of uncontrollable anger, he took in a large gulp of air to calm himself down. Then, he murmured, "Since you've come this far, I'm curious when you will launch the attack!"

Undoubtedly…

Increasing all drug prices would create unrest in the market, which would greatly influence the nation's interest. In this case, the government should step in.

However…

Fang Qiu had only heard the news. The increase in the prices of Chinese medicinal herbs hadn't yet been officially put on the agenda. It meant the black-hearted businessmen released this news as a warning to him.

"Before you guys formally raise the prices, you should show your true colors, right?"

"Let's wait and see!"

Fang Qiu snorted coldly!
