190: This is my career

"Are all your bones aching like this, or is it just one particular spot that hurts?"

Hearing Qin Jiang's question, Gan Rui first carefully felt his body, then said, "It's mainly the bones in my back that are hurting more, specifically my cervical spine and lower back."

"Dr. Qin, I haven't developed something like a herniated disc, have I?"

Qin Jiang did not answer Gan Rui.

Because patients are like this: when they have a physical problem, their first reaction is to search for related symptoms online, and the more they search, the more they feel these symptoms resemble theirs, and the more they look, the more they feel like they have an incurable disease.

As a professional doctor, one must have their own judgment and, more importantly, filter the information the patient provides.

For instance, Gan Rui saying where he hurts is valid information and can be considered seriously.

But regarding his speculations, Qin Jiang could just pretend he didn't hear them.

He absolutely could not let the patient's words guide him in diagnosing the illness; after all, he was the doctor.

"Put your hand up, I'll take your pulse."

Gan Rui obediently placed his hand on the pulse pillow.

Soon after Qin Jiang placed his hand on it, his brows furrowed immediately.

"Your gastrointestinal function isn't very good, your liver is also damaged, and your kidneys aren't doing well either."

As Qin Jiang finished speaking, Gan Rui's expression instantly turned a bit awkward.

How come nothing about him was good?

"Dr. Qin, if nothing is good, does that mean I'm useless?"

Qin Jiang comforted him, "It's okay, I've seen many young people like you; very few of them are in good health."

Gan Rui fell silent, unsure for a moment whether Qin Jiang was comforting him or complaining about him.

Qin Jiang continued to ask, "Do you get sick often?"

Gan Rui nodded.

"Yes, Dr. Qin, I used to get sick frequently a year ago, but ever since I started taking Shousheng Capsules, I've rarely been sick."

As soon as Qin Jiang heard Gan Rui say this, he instantly became vigilant.

"What is this Shousheng Capsule? I've never heard of it."

Gan Rui quickly opened his backpack and pulled out a small bottle of medicine.

"It's this capsule, the flagship product of Shousheng Group. I'm the exclusive agent for this region."

Qin Jiang picked up the bottle and looked at it, immediately having a bad premonition.

The packaging of this so-called Shousheng Capsule bottle was very simple, even crude.

The most critical thing was that Qin Jiang could not find any national drug approval number or any health product label on the bottle.

This meant that this Shousheng Capsule was likely a 'three-noes' product (no production date, no quality certificate, no manufacturer).

Qin Jiang opened the cap and poured out a few capsules.

Qin Jiang noticed that these capsules were colorful, with varying shades, and looked very strange.

Qin Jiang thought these capsules were garbage, but Gan Rui treated them like treasures.

He nervously watched the capsules, as if watching a miracle cure, afraid that Qin Jiang would make a mistake and lose them.

Qin Jiang asked, "Have you been taking these capsules all along? How many per day?"

Gan Rui said, "I take the gold-label version of Shousheng Capsules, so I only need to take one per day."

"But many members can't afford the gold-label version, so they only take the regular version, at least three per day."

"Dr. Qin, please be a little careful, these capsules are very expensive; one capsule is worth fifty yuan."

As soon as Gan Rui said this, the netizens in the live broadcast room became agitated.

"Fifty yuan for one capsule? Are you crazy? Can these capsules cure all diseases or something?"

"He could just rob you directly, but he still gives you a bottle of capsules to eat. He's truly... I'm crying my eyes out."

"This Buddy must have been conned. I know an aunt who is just like him; she was conned into becoming some kind of agent, spent hundreds of thousands buying a bunch of medicine that couldn't be sold at all and had no effect."

"So, the biggest problem with this Buddy is that he has a hole in his brain? How can that be cured? This is a matter of intelligence, isn't it?"

The netizens had already sensed that something was wrong, and Qin Jiang naturally noticed it too.

Qin Jiang said bluntly, "These capsules are all 'three-noes' products. No one knows what exactly is added inside. I advise you not to take them; they are not good for your health."

As soon as Qin Jiang said this, Gan Rui immediately became anxious.

"Dr. Qin, don't talk nonsense! Shousheng Capsules really do have therapeutic effects; I've experienced it myself."

"Before taking Shousheng Capsules, I was weak and sickly, almost getting a cold and fever every week. But after consistently taking Shousheng Capsules, I haven't had a cold or fever for almost a year."

"Whether Shousheng Capsules are useful, wouldn't I, who takes the medicine, know? I just want to be healthy, what did I do wrong?"

As Gan Rui spoke, his emotions became agitated.

Qin Jiang knew he wouldn't calm down anytime soon, so Qin Jiang looked at Wei Lan.

"How much stock did he buy?"

Qin Jiang's questions were incisive.

Wei Lan said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "He must have already bought 150,000 yuan worth of goods. This 150,000 yuan is all his savings from these past years, and his goal was to secure the exclusive agency rights for this region."

Qin Jiang immediately confirmed that Gan Rui had fallen into some kind of pyramid scheme.

"Why didn't you call the police? In his current situation, he should first call the police to recover his money; that's the most important thing."

Before Wei Lan could answer, Gan Rui's emotions flared up again.

"Call the police? Why call the police?"

"Dr. Qin, I'm here to see a doctor. You're a doctor. Just tell me what's wrong with my body and what medicine I need to take. Can you please not meddle in my business matters?"

No sooner had Gan Rui finished speaking than his phone rang.

As soon as Gan Rui answered the phone, a gentle female voice came from the other end.

"Gan Zong, there's a very important meeting at the company the day after tomorrow that requires your presence. Do you have time?"

As soon as he heard the woman on the other end of the line call him Gan Zong, Gan Rui immediately straightened his back and glanced at Qin Jiang proudly.

It was as if he was telling Qin Jiang that his judgment was that good, that Shousheng Group's medicine was not fake at all, and that he himself was a successful person.

Seeing Gan Rui's demeanor, Qin Jiang knew he was definitely deeply entrenched.

"Okay, I'll be there on time the day after tomorrow. Is there anything else?"

The Girl on the other end of the phone said, "It's like this, Gan Zong, because you previously purchased a total of 150,000 yuan worth of goods at our company headquarters, the head office leaders feel that you have great potential and excellent foresight."

"So, after careful consideration by the head office, we have decided to provide you with an additional batch of supplementary goods worth 100,000 yuan. However, this time the headquarters is giving you a discount, selling it to you at 70% of the wholesale price. Only you have this preferential price, and it's for a limited time."
