After hearing this, if it were in the past, Li Dongbi would probably say, if you don't want to say it, don't say it.
But now, Gu Beichuan had just helped him so much, and it would be inappropriate to say such words again.
So he said: "Tell me and listen."
"Emmm" Gu Beichuan thought about it for a while and finally said, "I think your sect's management model is somewhat inappropriate."
Hearing this, Li Dongbi frowned immediately.
Although he was not born in the Palace of the King of Medicine, he grew up in the Palace of the King of Medicine. He was taught his skills by the King of Medicine and was cared for by his senior brothers and sisters.
For him, Yaowang Palace is home!
How can I bear it when I hear others slandering Yaowang Palace?
If this person hadn't been Gu Beichuan, he would have taken action long ago.
But even so, he didn't have a good look. He flicked his sleeves and was about to leave.
But he heard Gu Beichuan say: "Don't you want Yaowang Palace to get better and better?"
Hearing this, Li Dongbi stopped immediately, turned around slowly, and said in a cold voice: "You'd better be able to tell someone who is ugly."
"Let me ask you, how many disciples are there in Yaowang Palace?"
"Nearly two hundred people."
"Two hundred people, although it's not a lot, it's still a lot."
"Do you need money to eat, drink or have sex?"
Li Dongbi frowned when he heard this. Although he lived in Yaowang Palace in the past, he paid no attention to worldly affairs and concentrated on studying martial arts and medicine.
But since he traveled down the mountain, he knew that it was difficult to move without money!
Otherwise, his first encounter with Gu Beichuan would not have been so embarrassing.
So, he nodded and said: "Of course."
"Then where did you get the money?"
"There is a Medicine King Pool in the sect. The water in the pool contains the essence of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon."
"Teacher Yao Wang planted a large number of medicinal herbs next to the pond. Because they absorbed the energy of the pond, these herbs are of excellent quality."
"Coupled with the reputation of Medicine King Palace, it can be sold for a high price, so brothers and I don't have to worry about food and clothing."
Gu Beichuan frowned when he heard this, "Good guy, I thought that the business model of Yaowang Palace was destined not to last long, but who would have thought that someone would cheat."
He was about to say that it would be okay, but he saw the sad look on Li Dongbi's face, so he asked: "Is there something hidden?"
Li Dongbi nodded, with a bitter tone: "The pond water can only accelerate the growth of herbs, but herbs cannot come out of thin air. They can only be picked around Yaowang Mountain."
"But over the years, we have been sitting on nothing, and we have already picked almost all the herbs. I am afraid it will take a long time for the new batch of herbs to grow."
"So, the palace is also a bit stretched."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he immediately became happy and said, "Then have you ever thought about changing the business model?"
"Change mode?" Li Dongbi looked at him with confusion on his face.
"Look, you are a legitimate disciple of the Eighth Sect and a direct descendant of the Medicine King's Palace, but you are living in such straitened circumstances."
"In comparison, the lives of the other seven disciples are probably much better."
Li Dongbi was silent for a while and then said: "It is true, but King Medicine once taught that hanging a pot to help the world, saving lives and healing the wounded is a great merit. You should not stop moving forward just because you have suffered some hardships."
Gu Beichuan was speechless, thinking to himself that the King of Medicine didn't even need to paint the cake, so you guys just followed him and worked hard?
"Then your tradition of not paying for medical treatment, can you change it?"
"Absolutely not! This is the tradition left by our ancestors. Not even me, not even Teacher Yao Wang can change it."
Gu Beichuan was even more helpless when he heard this. This patriarch had good intentions and wanted to make the poor people in the world affordable to receive medical treatment.
But they forget that doctors are also human beings and need to live.
"But do you think it will be effective if you don't charge for medical treatment?"
Li Dongbi fell silent, speechless.
"It seems that you feel bad about it too, and if this tradition continues, I'm afraid there will be bigger problems."
"Have you ever thought that not all the children of Yaowang Palace can stay in Yaowang Palace after they leave school? Some people need to go down the mountain to make a living."
"They stayed in the Medicine King's Palace for ten or eight years and spent half their lives practicing their medical skills to perfection."
"But apart from medical skills, do they have other means of making a living?"
"If you don't have it, and you don't want to violate the law and do things like burning, killing and looting, you can only live in poverty, right?"
Li Dongbi frowned even more when he heard this. He opened his mouth several times, but was speechless.
Because he really couldn't think of how to refute Gu Beichuan.
The brothers and sisters have received the teachings of King Yao and are all pure-minded people. They will never do such things as burning, killing and looting.
With his medical skills, he can save lives and heal the wounded, but he can't make any money.
But he would have to live in poverty, and even getting married would be a problem.
"You are right. There are indeed some problems in Yaowang Palace. In your opinion, how can we change them?"
When it comes to Yaowang Palace, even Li Dongbi must humbly ask for advice.
Moreover, he had to admit that Gu Beichuan was very good at doing business and might really be able to help Yaowang Palace.
"It's very simple. Just stop treating diseases and saving people."
"What!" Li Dongbi exclaimed, his internal energy almost in disarray.
"Are you kidding me?"
"It is the duty of my generation, the descendants of the Medicine Palace, to save lives and heal the wounded!"
"Stop, stop, stop getting excited, just listen to what I have to say."
"You no longer treat illnesses and save people. It doesn't mean that you don't save people. It means that you don't take the initiative to save people and wait for people to beg you to save them!"
Hearing this, Li Dongbi frowned again and said in a confused tone: "What's the difference between the two? Aren't they both treating illnesses and saving lives?"
"No, no!"
"People only value what they have worked so hard to get. Instead, they think it is cheap when it comes to them."
"The villagers of Bagong Village are all very capable and are good at work."
"If you put it in Huainan City, there will be no shortage of work."
"Do you know why they are rushing to come to my Nanshan workshop?"
When Li Dongbi heard this, he still shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know."
"Two points, one is because the wages I pay here are high enough! Even if you look at the entire Huainan City, my monthly salary is very high."
"Compared with other places, they will naturally want to come."
"The second thing is that things are rare and valuable!"
"Although the wages I pay are high, there are not many positions. It is impossible to recruit all the hundreds of young people in Bagong Village. So they need to compete, and competition will intensify scarcity. The combination of the two , it became what you saw.”
"And this also has a big advantage, that is, the villagers I recruit are all strong and strong villagers. Those who are weak and unable to work may not even be able to compete."
Li Dongbi said angrily: "What does this have to do with my Yaowang Palace?"
"Of course it does matter! You are a disciple of the Medicine Palace, and your medical skills are excellent, which is in line with the high wages I pay in my workshop."
"Regarding rarity, there is only one of you. If I want to see you for medical treatment, the entire Bagong Village villagers will probably rush to get you first and blood will be shed."
"But what's the truth?"
Hearing this, Li Dongbi was dumbfounded and stood on the spot.
