Long Xiao stood aside, waiting for these people to make their calls. He knew this matter couldn't be pushed too far, but they had to be taught a lesson to remember.
Xue Ruixue smiled and approached Long Xiao. "Doctor Long, I'm truly sorry. I didn't know you were a friend of our Xue family…"
Long Xiao interrupted Xue Ruixue. "Section Chief Xue, can we get to the point? I've been tired lately. You want to shut down my clinic; I actually want to rest well."
"Doctor Long, we were mistaken. Nothing here is in violation. We can't shut down the clinic."
"What did you say earlier? Didn't you say you could declare a violation if you wished? Now you say it's not a violation, and it's not. What do you think I, Long Xiao, am?"
Xue Ruixue quickly signaled Bai Xiaotian and the other two to help intercede. They immediately turned their faces away, pretending not to see.
As Xue Ruixue was about to speak again, Long Xiao said, "Xiao Ming, go tell Brother Mi to close the doors. Tell Tong Hui to process the discharge papers for all the cancer patients in the back courtyard. Tell them the Health Department is preventing them from receiving treatment."
Xiao Ming, who was watching the commotion, happily agreed and turned to walk towards the front courtyard.
Xue Ruixue hurried forward a few steps and stopped Xiao Ming. "Little brother, don't do this. I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance."
Xiao Ming understood Long Xiao best. Seeing Long Xiao loudly order the closure, he knew what Long Xiao meant. He quietly glanced at Long Xiao and then dragged Xue Ruixue towards the front courtyard.
In the front courtyard, Xiao Ming rubbed his right fingers together. "Big sister, you just talk without offering anything practical. It's difficult for me."
"What do you mean, practical?" Xue Ruixue asked.
Xiao Ming rubbed his fingers again. "What kind of leader are you? Not enough money, and you can't bribe me."
Xue Ruixue instantly understood Xiao Ming's meaning. She was surprised that such a young boy dared to openly solicit a bribe.
"Take out your phone, I'll transfer it to you," Xue Ruixue said through gritted teeth. To resolve this matter, she was willing to pay any amount. These funds would ultimately not come out of her pocket; she would make the person who reported Long Xiao pay.
After the transfer, Xiao Ming looked at the amount. "Only one million. Are you trying to send away a beggar?"
"Little brother, one million is not a small amount. I'm just a public servant, I don't have much money. Besides, you're just a child, so much money is useless."
"No, stop. I happen to like money. How about this, I'll return the money to you, and consider this as if I said nothing."
Xiao Ming opened his mobile banking app to initiate the transfer. Xue Ruixue stealthily glanced at his phone and saw that his bank account had over a hundred million. Of course, with over a hundred million, he wouldn't care about one million. Xue Ruixue gritted her teeth again. "Little friend, I'll transfer you another five million."
Xiao Ming turned to leave. Xue Ruixue quickly stopped him. "Fine, I'll give you all my eight million, even if I have to bankrupt myself."
After the eight million was successfully transferred, Xiao Ming secretly rejoiced, thinking how good it was to follow Brother Long; he could occasionally extort some money to spend. Nine million for roast duck would last a lifetime. Well, he couldn't eat roast duck anymore; he should eat lobster, sea cucumber, and abalone. Of course, if there were wild ginseng, eating it like rice would also be good.
Seeing Xiao Ming accept the money, Xue Ruixue's eyes darted around, unsure what he was thinking, and she dared not disturb him. After Xiao Ming finished his thoughts, Xue Ruixue said, "Little brother, let's go back. Please plead for me."
Xiao Ming nodded. "I can plead, but you have to tell me who reported us. I want revenge."
"Of course, my people have already gone to seal their pharmaceutical factory and hospital. If you want to show off, I'll take you there now, and you can seal it however you want."
Xiao Ming happily nodded. "That's a good idea. I'll tell Brother Long and wait here for me."
Xue Ruixue did not dare to follow Xiao Ming. Xiao Ming cheerfully ran to Long Xiao, who asked, "How much did you extort?"
"Hehe, not much, one or two million."
"Not telling the truth? I don't want yours."
"Eight million. There's no more."
Long Xiao smiled. "Good, I'll treat everyone to a big meal tonight."
"Brother Long, I'm going with Section Chief Xue to seal the pharmaceutical factory and hospital. If I come back late, we'll eat tomorrow."
Long Xiao nodded and waved his hand. "Okay, go ahead. Have fun, don't be polite."
Xiao Ming nodded. "Don't worry, Brother Long, I know how to have fun."
After Xiao Ming left, Long Xiao looked at the soldier and Bai Xiaotian. "Let's go, you two. I'll get you the medicine."
Long Xiao took out the prepared wound medicine from the pharmacy. The soldier looked at it. "Mr. Long, can you produce more? This isn't enough."
Long Xiao thought for a moment. "If you need it immediately, I can contact my father-in-law and give you all the medicine from the Lin Corporation's warehouse."
"Is the efficacy the same as this?" the soldier asked, somewhat unassured.
"The formula is the same. Produced on the production line, the efficacy is slightly inferior, but the quantity is large. It should be fine for use."
Since the military urgently needed wound medicine, they didn't ask further and immediately asked Long Xiao to make the arrangements.
Long Xiao called Lin Shijie, and soon received feedback that there were still ten thousand boxes of medicine left in the warehouse that had not been delivered.
"Dad, pause the shipment. Produce overnight, and let the military people pick it up tomorrow morning."
After Long Xiao made the arrangements, Bai Xiaotian said, "Long Xiao, you left in a hurry that day. Today, I'll treat you to a proper meal."
Long Xiao nodded. "Okay, let's go to the Donghai Hotel now."
The three of them had just arrived at the Donghai Hotel and requested a private room. Before the dishes arrived, the door was kicked open, and four burly men barged in.
"Are you the idiot from the Bai family?" one of the burly men asked.
Bai Xiaotian looked at the four burly men. "Do we know each other?"
"No, Young Master Lu sent us to break your legs."
Bai Xiaotian asked, confused, "Who is Young Master Lu? I don't know him. I haven't provoked him, why would he want to break my legs?"
"How should I know? Brothers, let's go!"
The burly man waved his hand, ready to start fighting in the private room.
Long Xiao flicked his finger, and a teacup lid flew out, directly hitting the burly man's shoulder. With a crack, the burly man's shoulder suffered a comminuted fracture.
The burly man's face turned ashen. Holding his left shoulder, he looked at Long Xiao. "Brother, please leave your name so I can report back."
Long Xiao waved his hand. "Scram."
As the burly man was about to speak again, the other three burly men quickly helped him retreat and left the private room. Seeing that Long Xiao had disabled a burly man with just a flick of his finger, Bai Xiaotian realized that the day Long Xiao fought with him at his house, he hadn't even used half of his strength.
The soldier looked at Long Xiao. "Doctor Long, with your high level of skill, you should serve the country."
Long Xiao shook his head. "I'm not used to being controlled. I'm used to being free."
