《Physician’s Odyssey》Chapter 576 - Popular among the representative team
Advertisement
Initially, Su Tao thought that he was only here to make up the numbers. However, it’s inevitable that someone talented like him would always be in the spotlight wherever he went.
With just a flip of his hand, he had already changed the entire representative team’s view of him. When the news got out that Su Tao had treated the Vice Premier’s illness, everyone swiftly made their way over and found an opportunity to chat with Su Tao.
Truth be told, chatting was a façade; they actually wanted to know if their illnesses could be treated. Even for those without an illness, they were keen on getting tips to maintain good health.
It’s part of human nature. When you possess both wealth and authority, you will be afraid of having a long life. After all, at this point in time, wealth was just a figure to them. Only by living a long life, can they enjoy their life to the fullest.
At this moment, Su Tao was a little helpless, since he was more willing to have a holiday in Russia.
However, he still patiently handled all of them. The reason was simple, he wanted to make use of this opportunity to expand his connections.
At this moment, Jiang Qinghan pressed on Su Tao’s doorbell. When she saw that it was a woman who opened the door, she subconsciously furrowed her brows. She had some impressions of this woman, she should be an assistant in the medical team, Ding Yan.
But what was she doing here?
However, the moment Jiang Qinghan stepped into the room; she instantly understood what was going on. Su Tao was currently being surrounded by a group of people; they were all entrepreneurs of the representative teams, with Ding Yan helping him as his assistant.
“Mr. Su, I have been suffering from chest pain, in which I’ve been treating it for a few years. Is there any solution that can resolve this matter?” A balding middle-aged man asked.
Examining the middle-aged man, Su Tao smiled. “Your chest pain isn’t because of your heart, but it has something to do with your diet. I believe you must be someone from Xiangnan Province, right?”
Nodding his head, the middle-aged man spoke in a Xiangnan Province accent, “You managed to tell? Is it because my accent was too heavy?”
Shaking his head, Su Tao explained, “Your chest pain comes from your spicy diet that resulted in your blood circulation being clogged. Hence, your blood can’t circulate well.”
“What does that mean?” The middle-aged man asked curiously.
“Putting it in a nutshell, your balding and chest pain is because you’re eating too much spicy food. It’s simple to deal with your chest pain and for your hair to stop balding. You just have to stop eating spicy food for a month, and it will show some effect.” Su Tao smiled.
In TCM, the middle-aged man was suffering from Grease-Chill condition. There could be many causes, but after Su Tao took his pulse, he discovered that it was mainly because of diet. Nowadays, there were often cases of young people in their twenties who were balding, and it’s because of their diet. When you take excessive spicy food, your hair will be greasy. For light cases, it would cause hair fall, and balding in severe cases.

“I see! Because of this issue, I even sought several solutions, but none of them was effective. In the past, I even wore a wig. But I did not bother with it after I slowly got used to it.” The middle-aged man laughed as he continued, “But telling someone from Xiangnan Province not to eat any spicy food is the same as killing them.”
“Your balding comes from your diet. So even if you use hair regrowth tonic, it’s not a permanent solution. I will write up a prescription for you. Whenever you’re determined to quit eating spicy food, you can take the prescription. I guarantee that you will have a full head of hair within half a year.” Su Tao explained with a smile.
Holding onto the prescription, the middle-aged man sighed. It wasn’t because he didn’t trust Su Tao, but he was feeling conflicted on whether he should quit eating spicy food. After all, spicy food was part of Xiangnan Province’s culture, and it’s hard to find a place that didn’t serve spicy food. There’s a saying that if you request a Xiangnan Province’s chef not to put any chilli in the food, he won’t know how to cook it anymore.
After dealing with that middle-aged man, someone immediately squeezed in and handed a phone to Su Tao with an embarrassed expression as he asked, “Mr. Su, can you take a look at my wife, who’s in China? She has had insomnia every night, and she’s practically on the verge of collapsing from the torture.”
Upon hearing those words, someone beside Su Tao instantly said, “Are you trying to make things difficult for Mr. Su? How can a medical consultation be done through video calls? Just wait for us to return and get your wife to visit his pharmacy to get it treated.”
With a faint smile, Su Tao received the phone. It was a young woman through the video call who seemed to barely be in her thirties. Looking at this entrepreneur, who looked to be in his fifties, Su Tao wasn’t too surprised since it was commonly seen in the business world.
“Stick your tongue out.” Su Tao requested with a smile, which the young woman complied.
Diagnosis through the tongue was an essential technique since there could be many issues that cause insomnia. Generally, western medicine would treat it with sleeping pills, but it’s not a permanent solution. Not only would it cause the patient to build up a reliance on the pills, but it would also build up resistance as well. Many patients suffering from insomnia would commonly find that a single tablet wasn’t sufficient, to which they would increase it to two. Hence, not only did it increase the side effects on the body, but it might also result in an accident. There were often cases of death resulting from overdosing sleeping pills.
The coating of an ordinary person’s tongue was commonly known as thin-white coat in TCM. Although it was also seen during cold and flu, the state of the illness could also be seen from the coating.

The coating on the woman’s tongue was thin; it was smooth and glossy like a mirror, which could often be caused by excess heat in the digestive system.
Thus, Su Tao asked after a brief pondering, “Do you eat food like sashimi often?”
Nodding his head, the entrepreneur answered, “That’s right. She likes to eat Japanese food the most, and she would eat it at least three times a week!”
Unhappily pursing her lips, the woman argued, “I don’t eat that much! Furthermore, there has never been any harm caused by it!”
Women, always denying even when they’re in the wrong.
Inwardly sighing, these ‘rich men’ diseases were often caused by diet. Hence, he patiently explained, “Your insomnia is caused by the parasites in your body. There are many parasites in raw fish, which can enter your stomach if they’re not sterilised with high temperature. Thus, when you’re exhausted at night, those parasites would become active and cause your insomnia. But worry not, it’s not difficult to resolve this issue. I’ll prescribe you with medicine to remove the parasites in your body. In the future, just pay attention not to eat too much raw fish.”
Witnessing this scene, the other entrepreneurs started to converse amongst themselves while exclaiming in admiration. They never expected that Su Tao’s medical skills would be so formidable that he could even make an accurate diagnosis through a video call, not to mention how he guessed the patient’s habits. All of them were all convinced by Su Tao’s ability.
Seeing it with their eyes makes it more convincing than hearing it. With his medical skills, Su Tao has proved his ability and left all the entrepreneurs in admiration.
Even without Su Tao asking, everyone started asking Su Tao for his mobile phone and even added his social media account. In the future, if they’re ill, wouldn’t it be an easy matter?
Naturally, Su Tao did not forget to advertise the charity auction by the Qihuang Charity Funds and smiled. “When we return, I might hold a charity auction related to TCM. At that time, I will invite everyone to attend, and if you guys aren’t busy, perhaps you can consider attending.”
Immediately, that middle-aged man slapped his chest and promised, “Mr. Su, I promise that even if I do not attend it personally, I will get someone to attend it on my behalf!”
At the same time, those that had received benefits from Su Tao naturally gave their promises as well.
Although Su Tao felt that he was somewhat materialistic to promote the charity auction at this moment, he didn’t think much about it. After all, with more enterprises participating, he would be able to help more of those in need.
When he saw Jiang Qinghan, who was amongst the crowd, which he failed to notice since he was too busy earlier, he smiled. “I’m sorry, but I have some matters that I have to attend to, so I’m afraid that I have to call it a day.”
Everyone here was someone with status. Since Su Tao has already said it, they naturally stood up and left.
“Ding Yan, the matter here is done, so you can leave as well.” Su Tao smiled as he turned to the assistant that Yue Zun gave him.
As Ding Yan’s face blushed, she gave Su Tao a deep glance before she left. Although she only briefly interacted with Su Tao, she would gain something every single moment. Watching how Su Tao treated people, she realised that the human body was more profound than she thought. This was a sensation that the dull western medicine couldn’t bring her.
“It looks like you have an additional fan now!” Jiang Qinghan bitterly smiled since she knew how Su Tao treated the Vice Premier last night.
“I didn’t want it, either!” Su Tao stretched his hands out with a cheap and annoying smile.
Since Jiang Qinghan was already used to Su Tao’s character, she ignored him and said, “I’m preparing to move out by myself and head for Saint Petersburg.”
Seeing how Jiang Qinghan’s heroic loner bearing was released once again, Su Tao inwardly sighed. He wasn’t afraid of Jiang Qinghan’s ability to protect herself, but Saint Petersburg was vast, so could she find Yan Sun alone?
“Believe me!” Su Tao shot a serious look at Jiang Qinghan and continued, “I will find Yan Sun’s location. But before that, you can’t act blindly!”
“Then, I’ll wait for a little longer!” Jiang Qinghan did not have the habit of relying on someone, but when she stepped onto Russia’s land, she would listen to Su Tao’s advice for some reason.
In the end, she’s a woman, and her adaptability wasn’t comparable to men in an unfamiliar environment. All the unfamiliar faces and languages made her feel panicky. But for some reason, the panic in her heart would disappear the moment she saw Su Tao.
“Let’s find somewhere to eat! I’m getting tired of the food in the hotel.” Su Tao suggested with a smile. He felt that Jiang Qinghan needed to relax at this moment.
Nodding her head with a smile, Jiang Qinghan replied, “Sure. I want to drink a cup of genuine vodka here.”
