Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Delaying Time

Jin Lingsu also wiped her mouth and subconsciously touched Chen Yu's shoulder.

"Did you make this?"

Chen Yu nodded, "It's just some ordinary medicinal meals. If you don't like the taste of the herbs, I can make it again for you."

"It's alright, I'll just take a few bites to replenish some strength."

Without giving it much thought, Jin Lingsu, along with Ka Jinwen, rushed over.

Chen Yu, however, retreated to the corner of the wall and did some simple treatment to the hole there.

When the cook carried over the five large pots, Chen Yu immediately set them up around the hole.

"Where's the cook?"

Ka Nai suddenly shouted, then, along with Bell, ran over to Chen Yu's side.

Seeing this from a distance, Jin Lingsu subconsciously placed her finger on her weapon, ready to act immediately should the situation change.

"This gentleman here is our cook and also the doctor!" Bell enthusiastically introduced him and went straight ahead to pull Chen Yu over.

"Mr. Chen, this here is our biggest buyer. He's here to purchase eighty percent of our stock in one go, a whopping eighty billion!"

Chen Yu forced a smile and inwardly cursed, What does this have to do with me.

Ka Nai suddenly grabbed Chen Yu's hand excitedly.

"What on earth did you put in the food? I only ate half a bowl and my rheumatism actually improved."

Chen Yu did not answer but casually took Ka Nai's pulse.

"Your health is not looking good. Apart from rheumatism, you also suffer from a severe case of spondylitis. Your body has a total of seventeen gunshot wounds, and there are eight bullet fragments not yet taken out, one of which is merely half an inch from your heart."

Hearing this, Ka Nai became somewhat stupified.

"Amazing! Just by touching my wrist, you could tell all the ailments I have. How on earth did you do that?"

Chen Yu turned away and started pouring water into the pot by himself.

"As Mr. Bell mentioned, I'm the doctor here, so naturally, I can detect your ailments."

"Can they be treated?" Ka Nai stared intently at Chen Yu.

For someone like him, who lived on the edge of the knife and was pursued by the entire world, he was always in peril.

Almost every once in a while, he would suffer a potentially fatal injury.

Although he had managed to survive every time, and is still alive today, the injuries that remained plagued him incessantly.

Especially in certain environments, life was worse than death.

If it weren't for the deal with Bell, requiring his personal inspection of this batch of ore, he probably wouldn't voluntarily come to such a frigid and snow-bound place.

Chen Yu started a fire under the large pot, "Of course they can be treated, but with so many injuries, it will probably take some time…"

"That's right!" Bell quickly jumped in: "Buddy, Mr. Chen is one of the rare miracle doctors I've met. As long as you follow his method, you will definitely be cured. Why not stay here for a few days?"

The previous earthquake had caused different levels of collapse in two minor mine tunnels, and now only sixty percent of the finished ore could be brought out.

Bell did not want to see the pre-negotiated deal shrink by twenty percent. The only way was to have Ka Nai stay a few more days.

But Ka Nai's physical condition simply did not allow him to reside in such an environment for long.

Now that Bell had finally found a reason, he was not willing to let go of the opportunity.

"Could you possibly prescribe some medicine first to alleviate my symptoms?" Ka Nai's eyes held a glimmer of hope.

Bell was also getting anxious, "Mr. Chen, you see..."

Chen Yu added some firewood under the large pot and sized up Ka Jinwen, noting his seemingly large and plump body was trembling nonstop.

"Your body has too many injuries and sicknesses; they might not be treated quickly elsewhere, but here we have a special medicine tailored just for you."

Chen Yu then took a palm computer from Bell, tapped on it a few times, and an image of a deep-sea fish appeared on the screen.

"Have your men catch them immediately, the more of these fish, the better!"

Ka Jinwen grabbed the palm computer and handed it to a subordinate by his side, "Go catch the fish at once."

Bell didn't dare to delay, immediately dispatching over a dozen people to help with the task.

Then, Chen Yu wrote two prescriptions, one for traditional Chinese medicine and one for Western medicine.

"Choose any prescription to find the medicine, and it would be even better if you could gather the ingredients from both prescriptions!"

Ka Jinwen glanced at the prescriptions and became excited.

"I have all these medicines!"

He had been ill for so many years, and this time, coming to the Arctic for work, he naturally brought along a large supply of medical materials.

It wasn't long before all the medicines from the two prescriptions were laid out in front of Chen Yu, along with a large quantity of deep-sea fish.

The place was close to the coast; in order to solve the town's food issues, Bell had people drill many ice holes nearby and also set up fishing nets.

As a result, the deep-sea fish that Chen Yu had mentioned were quickly found.

Chen Yu first blanched the fish in boiling water, then after cutting them into pieces, he coated them in batter and fried them in a wok until they were seventy percent cooked.

Next, he put the Chinese herbs in the pot according to the proportions and stewed them together with the fried fish pieces.

He also picked out some of the Western medicines, ground them into powder, and tossed them into the mix.

Before long, a rich fragrance began to spread, but the medicinal scent mixed within made the aroma somewhat less appealing.

Even so, it attracted the personnel on patrol not far away.

Chen Yu calmly served up the fish pieces and presented them to Ka Jinwen.

"The taste might be a bit strong, but you need to eat the fish with the soup as well, and after, you will feel a slight faintness."

Ka Jinwen hesitated, "A feeling of faintness?"

Chen Yu nodded, "Don't worry, it won't have too much impact on your body. You just need to sleep it off, and your sickness will ease. Afterward, I'll help you remove the bullet fragments from your body."

Ka Jinwen's throat moved slightly. At this point, he could not afford to be picky and wolfed down the fish pieces.

Bell immediately had someone prepare a room for Ka Jinwen.

However, before going to sleep, Ka Jinwen arranged all of his men around the perimeter of the room, and even placed six by the bedside. Searᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

For someone like him, no matter how much he trusted Bell, he had to play it safe.

But Bell didn't care about these precautions; he was thrilled, grabbing Chen Yu's shoulders and shaking them nonstop.

"Mr. Chen, you've really helped me out, if you can keep him here, one-tenth of the profit from this deal could be your commission."

Chen Yu just gave a symbolic smile and then sorted the remaining medical ingredients, mixing them into other dishes.

Many people here had ailments similar to Ka Jinwen's, though not as severe.

By diluting these medicines and feeding them to the people here, he could also earn a new batch of points.
