Chapter Thirteen: Each with Their Own Thoughts

  There are already over 50 brothers in the collection, and today on Monday everyone is still dropping votes. Xiao Bai wants to rush into the new book list, so please spare some recommendation votes, and also ask for collection! Chen Da Guan Ren felt that Su Da Xiaojie beside him was emitting cold air all over her body, and his skin was covered with goosebumps from this cold air. Looking at her evil eyes, Chen Da Guan Ren was very timid and ran to stir-fry those barbecue things again.

  Mr. Su followed his granddaughter to the hospital, and the remaining old men lost their interest in strolling around, so they sat down next to Chen Zhiyuan and chatted with him casually.

  These old men are all about the same build as Old Su, and Chen Zhiyuan felt that they were truly birds of a feather when he first met them. Looking at their builds, it's clear that they have a lot of fat on their bodies. He thought to himself, "How did these old men sign the contract? Now there's not a bit of fat left!"

  It wasn't until then that Chen Zhiyuan had the mind to check out the basic medical skills he had just obtained. Upon checking, it turned out that these basic medical skills included both Chinese and Western medicine. Although they were basic, this was only relative to the system - for someone like Chen Zhiyuan who had studied medicine, it wasn't that simple. With these basic medical skills, it could be said that he was now a general practitioner, and a very skilled one at that. In today's hospitals, doctors are still divided into different departments, and even though the concept of a "general practitioner" has emerged in some community clinics, when faced with more serious illnesses, patients still need to go to a large hospital for treatment. A person's energy is limited, and medicine is a complex and difficult field that requires a lot of professional experience. It's impossible for one person to learn all the knowledge and master it, even if they study their whole life. But today, Chen Zhiyuan had achieved this - with his current level, he could go to a large hospital and become the director of any department without a problem. Of course, this was only in terms of diagnosis - if he were asked to perform surgery or use some other techniques, Chen Zhiyuan's physical attributes weren't sufficient yet.

  Mr. Chen felt very happy and proud of himself at this time, he was looking forward to the intermediate medical skills and food therapy in his heart, but to reach the intermediate medical skills, the system needed to be upgraded, and upgrading meant fat, Mr. Chen had no choice but to take it one step at a time, first getting the fat from these old men before talking about it.

  Among these old men, the tallest one surnamed Wang looked more approachable. Chen Zhiyuan, while fiddling with his own work, said: "Old man Wang, you should lose some weight!"

  The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "As people get older and fatter, all kinds of illnesses come. Why don't they think about losing weight? But now those weight loss products on the market are not dare to use. I do exercise regularly, but unfortunately, I just can't control my mouth, it's all in vain!"

  The remaining old men echoed in unison, saying a lot of bad things about this person being old and fat, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.

  Mr. Chen saw that the old men were about to take the bait, and with a smile, he said: "I have a method here that is absolutely side-effect-free weight loss, you don't know how fat I used to be..." Mr. Chen pulled out his old photos and presented himself as evidence.

  Several old men were half-believing and half-doubting what he said. Wang Lao and the others were all veterans of the domestic catering industry, and they had also received a call from Su Lao Ye last night. The content was that Chen Zhiyuan had seen the food path and knew many lost recipes inside. On the way, several old men had already probed each other in words, and Chen Zhiyuan was not a young man who just came out of his shell. He didn't understand why these old guys were so concerned about the food path, so he didn't say a word of truth. At this time, when he heard the young man mention a recipe, several old men's eyes lit up.

  The old man Wang made an expression of surprise: "Really?"

  Chen Zhiyuan put down his work and said, "It's not just true, I've already made the medicine, there are a few bottles in my bag, if you don't believe me, you can buy some to try!" Chen Da Guanren was straightforward and directly talked about money.

  The old man's eyes rolled around like an old fox and said: "Can I take a look at that prescription?"

  Chen Zhiyuan was a little fox, who would easily fall for it. He said that the formula he had was actually a stomach-soothing and digestion-promoting formula, but if he showed it to these few old foxes, they would definitely see through it. Laughing, "This won't do, this is something passed down from my master's door, my master said that even my parents can't see this formula!" Chen Zhiyuan didn't have any masters or schools, this whole set of words was purely learned from martial arts novels.

  "Master's door? Master?" Old Wang looked at Chen Zhiyuan with a puzzled expression, and suddenly slapped his forehead: "Is the foodway also passed down from your master's door!"

  Chen Zhiyuan estimated that Old Su had already told these few old foxes about yesterday's matter, otherwise, they wouldn't have been constantly probing him on the way. Since it was mentioned, there was no harm in admitting it. Under broad daylight, what could these few old men do to him? He nodded: "Yes!"

  Several old men heard Chen Zhiyuan personally admit it, and a pair of old eyes all burst out with excitement. Several people gathered together to discuss it, originally wanting to come up with a high price to lure this kid into writing down the recipe, but thinking that this kid was more cunning than a monkey, they estimated he would not fall for it. They could only come up with a compromise, which was to buy the weight loss medicine he mentioned, and then analyze its composition later. If the composition was non-toxic, they would try eating it, and if it had an effect, they would figure out the composition and start producing it. Now this weight loss product is a profitable project!

  Old Wang walked over, made a warm gesture and patted Chen Zhiyuan's shoulder: "Since the young man has such good medicine, we old guys will buy some for our bodies. I don't know what the price is!" Old Wang had seen through it, rather than making small talk with this kid, he might as well get straight to the point and talk about money.

  Chen Zhiyuan looked at the several old men who were dressed in a manner that suggested they were not short of money, and thought to himself that he shouldn't sell this medicine too cheaply. He chuckled to himself and said: "This medicine requires very expensive ingredients and can't be made overnight. If you gentlemen want more, you'll have to wait for some time. Right now, I only have enough for one bottle per person, and it's not expensive at all - just 5,000 yuan!" Chen Zhiyuan wasn't stupid; if he said that he had as much as they wanted, it would make the medicine seem like something you could buy on the street corner. These old men would definitely be suspicious. It was better to use the tactic of making something scarce to make it seem more valuable. This guy's mouth was a bit too big - this broken medicine only cost a few yuan to make, but he was selling it for over a hundred times that price! His heart was really black!

  Old Wang and the others were all worth a lot of money, so they didn't think much of the 5,000 yuan. They immediately agreed to take it all, but since none of them had that much cash on hand, they told the driver to use this card to go find an ATM to withdraw the money.

  Chen Zhiyuan handed the medicine to these old men, and then pretended to rummage through his bag. He took out a few contract books from the system, found a secluded place, scribbled down some notes, and returned to let the old men sign them. The old men glanced at the contract book and saw that it was just some notes about what not to eat, so they didn't take it seriously and signed with relish.

  Chen Zhiyuan watched those old men holding the medicine, smelling and licking it, and smiled secretly in his heart. You several old guys are no different from Old Su, thinking of getting those formulas out of my mouth, dream on! These formulas are all money-making tools if they come out easily. This weight loss medicine is taken away for testing, non-toxic and side-effect-free stomach-tonifying and digesting pills, good stuff, haha!

  In fact, this diet is not developed by the system itself, but was written by ancient people, recording some methods of using food to treat diseases used by ancient people. Although it also involves many cooking skills, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is those medicinal prescriptions that match with food. After Chen Zhiyuan learned this skill, he didn't think about taking out a prescription and exchanging it for money, but he couldn't take this prescription to a food company and tell them what diseases it could cure with some cooking skills, or else they would think he was crazy.

  Chen Zhiyuan is messing around with this roasted lamb, if the great god of Shidao knew that this kid was using some medicinal recipes from Shidao to mess around with roasted lamb, he would jump out from under the ground and fight him to the death. It's not like there isn't a method for roasting lamb in Shidao, but if it were done entirely according to the methods in Shidao, it wouldn't be just something edible like it is now. Chen Da Guan Ren cut corners and omitted the two most expensive and important medicinal recipes inside, if those two recipes' worth of medicine were added, this roasted lamb could treat chronic gastritis and women's dysmenorrhea, but those two recipes require very expensive medicine that's also hard to buy, so Chen Da Guan Ren is being black-hearted by omitting them!

  At this time, a small one added to several old ones, each with their own thoughts. The little one was opening the fat exchange system to check how much fat was on the bodies of several old men, and several old men were pondering about weight loss medicine.
