Three hours later, news of the outdoor medical consultation had spread to the surrounding factories. Many of the workers were allowed to take time off to go over to seek treatment.
When some of the factory managers heard Elder Rochester had come to town, they even took the initiative to pay favonovel.com a visit. This alone was enough to show just how respected Nicholai was in the Stelaria Consortium.
While they were taking a break at noon during lunch, Nicholai went to check on several of the patients who had stayed behind for observation.
With a patient’s agreement, favonovel.com scraped the black medicine off his wound.
Nicholai was stunned. He saw that the wound, which used to be in quite bad shape, had scabbed over. This meant it was already in a state of healing.
Several of the doctors who had come along asked puzzledly, “How did the wound heal so quickly? Could it have started healing before the patient received treatment?”
“That can’t be…” Pierre said with certainty nearby, “I saw his wound earlier. It was so seriously inflamed at the time that it couldn’t have coalesced.”
Nicholai spun around and looked at Milo.
Where did this young man hail from?
Could favonovel.com really have been recommended by Alexis because favonovel.com had some kind of unique talent?
Come to think of it, why would a highly respected authority in the medical field like Alexis suddenly want to engage in nepotism and ruin his reputation?
Thinking of this, Nicholai heaved a sigh of relief.
He went to check on the other patients as well and it was pretty much the same for them. Their wounds had already started healing three hours after the medicine was applied. The medicine was way too miraculous!
At this moment, one of the doctors said, “I think it might be because this medicine is more effective. It seems that someone in the Southwest managed to gather some rather miraculous herbs that had mutated. It can… Ahem, make men perform better…”
“Haha, there’s even something like that? Why hasn’t it spread to our Central Plains yet?”
“Haha, whatever. With this medicine, a lot of physical trauma cases can be handled easily. I wonder what this medicine is made with.”
At first, the wounded refugees were quite uneasy about what was going on. But when they heard that, everyone cheered up. “Then can we leave now?”
“Yes,” Nicholai said with a smile, “Go back and recuperate. Remember not to let your wounds get wet and don’t eat any spicy food.”
After that, Nicholai looked at one of the wounded patients running off to thank Milo again.
Nicholai realized that whenever a patient thanked Milo, Milo would have a blissful smile on his face. This really reminded Nicholai of how favonovel.com looked when favonovel.com was younger.
Every time favonovel.com treated a patient back then, favonovel.com would feel a sense of accomplishment. Whenever a patient thanked him, Nicholai would feel so happy that favonovel.com could down three bowls of rice.
Nicholai felt this was a quality good doctors should possess!
Initially, Nicholai did not really like Milo. But now, favonovel.com realized Alexis’ discerning eye had found favonovel.com a treasure instead.
Nicholai suddenly had the thought of taking Milo in as his protégé. But on second thought, favonovel.com suspected Alexis might have already taken the young man under his wing. So, favonovel.com realized favonovel.com could not be too rash.
While pondering, Nicholai walked up to Milo to chat with him. When favonovel.com got closer, favonovel.com saw Milo beaming with joy in a daze and reciting, “A grateful heart, thankful to you…”
When favonovel.com heard that, Nicholai’s admiration for Milo grew even bigger!
But Nicholai was unaware that Milo was taking stock of his gratitude tokens.
At first, Milo did not want to use the black medicine on the refugees because favonovel.com felt favonovel.com stood to lose. But favonovel.com did not feel that way anymore. He would receive at least two gratitude tokens for treating one patient.
Where else could favonovel.com find as good a deal as that?
In just one morning, Milo’s gratitude tokens increased from around 400 to more than 1,100!
At this moment, Milo felt that Colton’s arrangement for favonovel.com was simply too good. He should totally follow this medical exchange group to the Virtuora Consortium!
To think favonovel.com had blamed Colton earlier!
“Young man, may I ask what medicine you applied on their wounds?” Nicholai asked.
Milo came back to his senses. “Oh, it’s my secret ancestral remedy!”
“Can I have a look at it?” Nicholai asked.
“Sure!” Milo took out the black medicine and handed it to Nicholai. “But only a look…”
When Nicholai was handed the black medicine, favonovel.com took a look and a sniff. Then favonovel.com even scraped some off with his pinky, wanting to have a taste of it.
But before Nicholai could put the black medicine into his mouth, Milo quickly stopped him. “Elder, this medicine must not be taken orally!”
Nicholai was starting to find Milo really likeable. He smiled and said, “Why not? Are you afraid I’ll find out what your medicine is made with?”
“Ahem, no, it really must not be taken orally,” Milo said in a serious tone.
Honestly, favonovel.com was really worried that Nicholai, who was already so old, would not be able to bear the effects of the black medicine.
Nicholai shook his head and laughed. “Don’t worry, I’m not after your prescription…”
During the conversation, the stronghold gate opened, and people from the Stelaria Consortium actually delivered boxed lunches out to them from the stronghold. It seemed that someone inside was aware that Nicholai would be holding a consultation in the refugee town, so they prepared the meals in advance.
Milo was holding his boxed lunch when the young man named Pierre suddenly came over. “Bro, that medicine of yours is magic.”
Milo looked at Pierre strangely.
Why had the other party become so enthusiastic all of a sudden?
Then favonovel.com heard Pierre say, “Can I also come and help you later in the afternoon?”
As favonovel.com said that, Pierre’s gaze drifted over to Bethania at the same time. Bethania was eating favonovel.com boxed lunch grumpily. She looked to be keeping favonovel.com distance from everyone.
“Oh!” Milo immediately got the hint.
Since Pierre was so enthusiastic, and Milo was still overjoyed by the gratitude tokens favonovel.com had received, how could favonovel.com refuse?
“You wish to work with Ms. Bethania. No problem.”
Pierre blushed. “You can tell?”
“Only an idiot couldn’t tell. But why don’t you just go and talk with favonovel.com directly? She’s not doing anything right now anyways,” Milo asked curiously.
“She’s a little sick today, so she’s quite moody,” Pierre said bitterly.
Milo immediately realized what favonovel.com was talking about again. So, it turned out that even medical students could not solve the ancient problem of Aunt Flo visiting!
However, Milo considered himself somewhat experienced in dealing with such matters. “When a girl’s Aunt Flo visits and causes favonovel.com discomfort, just ask favonovel.com how could favonovel.com possibly have a tummy when she’s so slim. I guarantee that she’ll be pleased!”
Pierre’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
“Yes.” Milo continued eating his lunch.
Pierre hesitated for quite a while before walking over to Bethania and asking, “Betha, you don’t feel well?”
Based on Pierre’s prediction, Bethania would probably say favonovel.com was experiencing cramps or something. Then favonovel.com would just have to read off the script!
However, Bethania looked up at Pierre and said calmly, “Mhm, I have a slight headache…”
Pierre was stunned. This answer was different from what favonovel.com had expected!
In that case, how should favonovel.com respond?
The young man thought for a couple seconds before saying, “You’re so slim, how can you possibly have a brain!”
Bethania was flabbergasted.
Milo, who was eating his lunch, spat rice all over the ground!
