I'm also desperate.
Chapter 238 Business Acumen
'Divine Doctor An, let's forget about the marriage proposal. However, I'll put in a good word for you with Lord Han. Whether you can get his protection depends on Lord Han's decision.'
'I know, but if you married into my An family, you'd definitely work harder to handle this matter well. After all, protecting the An family would be like protecting your own home.'
Divine Doctor An seemed to want to persuade him further, but under Fang Yue's insistence, he finally gave up the idea.
After spending these days together, he knew Fang Yue's temperament.
He thought for a moment, then opened the door and spoke a few words to the servants outside.
Before long, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with a cute and pleasing appearance, round and chubby, skipped into the hall.
'Grandpa, you were looking for me?'
'Yes, Dong'er, come here and greet this big brother.'
'Hello, big brother!'
Dong'er was very obedient, and her chubby face immediately broke into a smile as she bowed to Fang Yue.
Fang Yue looked at Divine Doctor An, a puzzled expression on his face.
Divine Doctor An then said, 'Her name is An Dong'er, and she's the most talented of the younger generation in my An family. You're not willing to marry into my An family, so recognizing an honorary little sister isn't too much to ask, is it?'
*Why am I suddenly a generation lower than you…*
Fang Yue was feeling depressed when Divine Doctor An waved his hand.
'It's settled then. Dong'er, remember this big brother's face. In the future, call him Brother Yue. If you ever encounter any trouble you can't solve, go to Gu Yue Village to find him.'
'Dong'er understands.'
'Okay, if there's nothing else, you can leave.'
'Okay.'
Dong'er secretly glanced at Fang Yue a few times before leaving.
Once An Dong'er left, Fang Yue looked at Divine Doctor An.
'What's the meaning of this? Suddenly giving me an honorary little sister.'
'Dong'er is my most beloved granddaughter, and she's the future of the An family. I'm just leaving a way out for the An family. If something really happens to the An family one day, I hope she'll go to you for help. Of course, if nothing happens, having an honorary little sister from a remote village shouldn't be a big deal, right?'
That's what he says… but Fang Yue still felt a little awkward.
*Forget it, she's just an honorary little sister in name.*
Next, Fang Yue talked with Divine Doctor An about recent events for a while before getting up to leave the An residence.
Divine Doctor An watched Fang Yue's departing figure, deep in thought.
It wasn't until people on the street started pointing and whispering about him that his expression darkened, and he snorted coldly before entering the residence.
'Isn't that Divine Doctor An? I heard he was seriously injured and on the verge of death in Luo Ye Village, but Divine Doctor Luo miraculously brought him back to life!'
'Really? Could it be that Divine Doctor Luo of Luo Ye Village is even more skilled than Divine Doctor An?'
'Hmph! You wouldn't know this, but Divine Doctor Luo and Divine Doctor An were originally equally famous divine doctors. It's just that Divine Doctor An debuted earlier, so his reputation is louder. But when it comes to medical skills, it's always been unknown. But judging from the rumors from Luo Ye Village, Divine Doctor Luo has already firmly established his name as the number one divine doctor in the Black Green Mountain Range. Divine Doctor An is getting old!'
'I see, it seems that Luo Ye Village is about to prosper again!'
…
On the way, Fang Yue also heard many people discussing the competition between Divine Doctor Luo and Divine Doctor An's medical skills.
This was Mo Village, Divine Doctor An's territory, so logically, most people should be supporting Divine Doctor An.
But Divine Doctor An was too greedy. How many people in Mo Village had been drained dry by Divine Doctor An's high consultation fees? Over the years, he had accumulated countless secret enemies.
It's just that Divine Doctor An was too dominant, and no one dared to stand up and say anything.
Now that there were rumors of Divine Doctor Luo surpassing Divine Doctor An, they were naturally happy to gossip. After all, they were just normally discussing rumors. They even dared to gossip about the team leader's rumors, so why couldn't they gossip about Divine Doctor An's affairs?
But this news is spreading really slowly.
Fang Yue and the others had been back to Mo Village for many days, and the news that Divine Doctor Luo had surpassed Divine Doctor An in medical skills, not counting the competition between doctors, and had wholeheartedly saved people, showing the benevolence of a doctor, had only just reached Mo Village.
Fang Yue didn't think it was a big deal. In the short term, Divine Doctor Luo's name would indeed surpass Divine Doctor An's, but this was still Mo Village, Divine Doctor An's territory. He would definitely find a way to restore his reputation. As for the other villages, fame and reputation depended on word-of-mouth, so it would be a bit difficult to regain the title of number one divine doctor.
But how old is Divine Doctor An already? If he perseveres for a few more years, he can retire and enjoy his old age. He doesn't need to care so much about empty fame, right?
After leaving the An residence, Fang Yue went to look for the Blood Hunter.
But after asking several times, no one knew where he had gone.

Niu Niu was silent for a moment, then sent a message.
'The group buying group is no longer easy to manage. Those people spontaneously organize group buying and even find those with strong strength and good reputation to act as guarantors, kicking me, the founder, out. Now, relying on the connections I've accumulated before, I'm doing promotional activities with small shops like tailors and blacksmiths that don't have a reputation. I take a little commission, service fee, or something to make a living.'
Ah this…
This guy, although he's not diligent in practicing, he has a good business mind.
'You're doing a good job, there are a lot of people.'
