Chapter 19 You Are a Quack (1/2)

Although James did not know who the young man was, he answered, ”If let me do the operation, I could maintain at least two to three years life-span for him.”

Qin Haodong looked at him and sneered, ”What a joke. You leave such great harm to the patient, removing half of the lung lobes and only keeping his life for another two to three years. How dare you claim to be the best thoracic and pulmonary doctor in the world. Who gave you the courage?

I would say you are totally a quack!”

James got suddenly furious and his face turned red. It was the first time for years that one dared to call him a quack doctor.

He stormed to Qin Haodong, ”Who are you? Do you know anything about medicine? In consideration of the patient's current condition, what I have put forward was the best treatment plan. No one else can treat him at all. I am the best thoracic and pulmonary doctor in the world, a world-recognized expert!

Nalan Wufeng also asked coldly, ”Who are you? How did you get in? Is this a place where you get a say? Where are the guards, get him out of here! ”

”Shut up!” Nalan Jie said angrily, ”This is Dr. Qin, I invited him!”

”Doctor Qin?” Nalan Wufeng looked at Qin Haodong for a moment. His expression became even more disdainful. ”Shouldn't all traditional Chinese medicine doctors have white eyebrows and shining white long beards? How could there be such a young doctor?”

”Grandpa, have you been deceived? How could he be a doctor?”

”Shut up or get out. Don't talk nonsense here!”

Nalan Jie angrily scolded Nalan Wufeng. Yesterday, according to Qin Haodong's suggestion, he had taken a 12-hour medicated bath, and he felt much better than before. He even had a good sleep last night.

He naturally believed in Qin Haodong more than the bearded man who proposed to remove half lung lobes of him.

Seeing the old man was really angry, Nalan Wufeng ducked and dared not speak anymore.

But James was not afraid of Nalan Jie. He said to Qin Haodong, ”No way! You can't be a doctor. I don't think you've graduated since you are so young. How can you be a doctor?”

Qin Haodong said, ”I am a traditional Chinese medical doctor. In traditional Chinese medical science, we stress on medical skill instead of age and seniority.”

”Traditional Chinese medical science? Ha... Ha... Ha... doctor of Chinese medical science! ”

Hearing this, James laughed heartily. Even his sprays from coughs covered his beard. He laughed and turned to his assistants, ”Did you hear that? This is really the funniest joke in the world. Never expect a doctor of Chinese medicine can come out to treat the disease!”

Qin Haodong frowned and said in a cold voice, ”Why, is it funny?”

”Funny! Of course, it's funny!” James said, ”Go to the World Medical Association and ask about traditional Chinese medical science. Everyone knows that is deceptive, it's totally superstitious witchcraft. No one believes that traditional Chinese medical science can cure diseases!”

”If you don't believe in traditional Chinese medical science, you are ignorant!” Qin Haodong turned around and pointed to Nalan Jie and said, ”If I use traditional Chinese medicine to treat Mr.Nalanjie's disease, we will not only have not to cut off the lungs, but also can make him recover completely. What's more, at least I can extend a ten-year life span for him!”

”I just heard one of the funniest jokes in the world, and now here comes the biggest boast. Is that called Chui Niu in your Chinese language? I've heard that you Chinese like to brag, but today I finally see it!”

As James shook his head and spoke Chui Niu in his stiff Chinese, which sounded extremely harsh, his assistants laughed again.

Qin Haodong buttonholed Nalan Wushuang, who was about to lose her temper, and said to James coldly, ”Since you don't believe in traditional Chinese medical science, let's make a bet?”

”Bet, okey. How do you want to bet?”

James was famous for his arrogance in the World Medical Association, and at this time he did not take Qin Haodong seriously.

”Just bet on Mr. Nalan's disease. I can say that I could cure him in half an hour.”

”No way, it's absolutely impossible. His disease is impossible to cure even in half a year, let alone half an hour. Traditional Chinese medicine can't cure diseases at all. Why can't you Chinese change your boasting habit?”

James shook his head and the disbelief spread over his face.

Qin Haodong said coldly, ”Just answer me dare you to bet or not?”

”Of course. Why not? Go ahead, what do you want to bet on?”

”This Korean ginseng is worth 10 million yuan. If you win, you can take it away. Otherwise, you shall kneel down and take me as your teacher in public. Meanwhile, you should apologize to traditional Chinese medical science on the world-famous press!”

James glanced at the ginseng in the big red brocade box. Although he was a doctor trained in Western medical science, he also was aware that the ginseng was absolutely first-class and very valuable.

”Are you sure you want to bet with me on this?”

James said incredulously. In his opinion, he was sure to win the bet. He does not understand why the Chinese people played for such a high stake.

”Sure, today I will let you ignorant people see what is called traditional Chinese medical science!”
