Chapter 331


    "What if… there''s a problem with your master''s prescription?" Chu Feng said calmly.


    Those words sent everyone into an uproar.


    Fu Nanhua hurriedly took a look at Huang Shengshou and Chu Feng''s prescriptions andpared


    them. Five minutester, he sighed and said, "You''ve lost, Old Master Huang."


    Huang Shengshou''s expression instantly darkened.


    Everyone in the audience was dumbstruck. Fu Nanhua continued, "Chu Feng is right, Old Master


    Huang. There is a problem with your prescription."


    Everyone was instantly in an uproar again.

    Each of the top four physicians in the country had their own specialties, and Huang Shengshou''s


    specialty was his prescriptions that had been refined through the generations.


    How could there be a problem?


    Huang Shengshou remained sullen for a moment before he burst outughing again. "Are you


    saying there''s a problem with my prescription, Ol'' Fu? When I was three years old, I memorized A


    Treatise on Colds. When I was seven, I could recognize and name one hundred species of herbs.


    When I was fifteen, I was already diagnosing patients and writing prescriptions on my own. Now I''m


    seventy-five, and after treating tens of thousands of patients, I''ve never made a wrong diagnosis


    even once. What''s the problem with my prescription?"


    While the doctors in the audience were whispering to each other, Huang Shengshou took another


    step forward and continued to speak arrogantly, "Moreover, my prescriptions have been handed


    down from my great-grandfather. Back then, emperors and nobles used them. Now, the aristocrats


    and officials in Yenching and Di Du use them. If there were a problem with my prescriptions, how


    could they have endured for centuries?"


    Many of the people in the audience began to believe Huang Shengshou. They were pointing at Chu


    Feng andughing at him.


    On the other hand, Chu Feng stood there quietly as though he was confident he would win.


    "We''ve also studied Old Master Huang''s prescription, Ol'' Fu. There''s no problem at all…" Professor


    Yang and a few other physicians went up to Fu Nanhua and whispered to him. "Ginseng


    replenishes vitality, and stag antler reinvigorates the blood. The proportions of Ganoderma, snow


    lotus, and Fallopia multiflora are perfect, with noponent canceling the effects of another. In


    terms of its medicinal effects or research value, this prescription is like a treasure."


    "On the other hand," Professor Yang continued, "Chu Feng''s prescriptionprises of tangerine


    peel, Angelica sinensis, astragalus, and othermon ingredients like honeysuckle and dandelion.


    Not only are the ingredients inferior, but the prescription would take a much longer time to take


    effect. It''s likeparing a Macan whisky to a bottle of dor store gin. There''s noparison at


    all. It is clear who should be the winner. Ol'' Fu, I know that you think Chu Feng shows promise, but I


    don''t think it''s very professional of you to dere him the winner."


    Fu Nanhua looked at those people and said, "It''s exactly because Old Master Huang used those


    expensive and potent herbs that he lost."


    Chu Feng smiled appreciatively. No wonder people called Fu Nanhua the best physician in


    Jiangbei. He could tell what the two people were thinking.


    Everyone else was confused. Huang Shengshou''s disciples chuckled disdainfully, thinking that Chu


    Feng was not a man of his word.


    Huang Shengshou seemed to have noticed something. His expression turned grim.


    Fu Nanhua began to exin, "Yes, Old Master Huang''s prescription is valuable, but at the same


    time, we physicians often neglect a very important factor: Price! Ginseng, stag antler, and snow


    lotus carry extremely hefty price tags. A wealthy businessperson or an aristocrat would be able to


    afford thoseponents, but what about themon folk? Old Master Huang, your prescription for


    themon cold costs 60,000 yuan. That''s almost what the average person earns in a year. Would


    anyone here spend what you make in a year to treat a cold?"


    The doctors in the lecture hall were speechless. Huang Shengshou''s expression also became


    sullen. Tang Sisi, on the other hand, seemed excited, as though she could see Chu Feng winning


    the duel.


    Fu Nanhua continued, "Even though Chu Feng''s prescription isn''t as potent, they cost only two to


    three hundred yuan. Everyone can afford that. He''s a true physician that puts himself in his patients''


    shoes."
