In addition, Lin Miao has also brought out the "Medicinal Properties Poem" and the "Decoction Song", but they can’t be released all at once; it has to be a gradual process.

You can’t become fat with one bite.

Whether it’s studying medicine or practicing martial arts, it’s not something that can be accomplished overnight.

"Lin Mao, you’re the oldest and the big brother of everyone here, so you will be in charge of supervising the younger siblings." Lin Miao placed his hands behind his back, his gaze shifting to Ling Yu’Er, who was becoming a little beauty. "And you too, Ling Yu’Er, you can read. If you come across unfamiliar characters, ask me or other ladies in the manor. Once you recognize all the characters, you will become their teacher to teach them to read and recognize words. This will be your literacy textbook. Do you understand?"

"Understood, young master." Lin Mao and Ling Yu’Er bowed and replied in unison, their eyes filled with excitement.

In just a few days at the Lin Manor, these children have undergone a tremendous transformation.

They have food to eat, clothes to wear, and books to read. Most importantly, they can even practice martial arts. It’s as if they have gone from hell to heaven!

Who wouldn’t cherish such opportunity and treatment? No one wants to return to those days of hunger, scorn, and being chased by dogs, where survival was a daily gamble.

Although it’s a beginner’s medical book, the impact on Xia Zhu and Sun Youwei is immense. To be able to compile such an easily understandable and recitable medical book that is suitable for children to memorize; very few in the field of Xinglin can achieve this.

Moreover, for those who study medicine, writing books that can be passed down through the generations is the ultimate ideal.

A person does not live beyond a hundred years. After a hundred years, what can he leave behind besides descendants? It’s his thoughts, and those thoughts are passed down through written works.

If a person can leave behind immortal Chapters for future generations, then his existence in this world is not in vain.

And this dream, which many spend a lifetime striving for, Lin Miao achieved effortlessly.

Although "Three Character Classics of Pharmacy" is known only within the Lin Manor for now, once it spreads, it will surely cause a sensation in the Xinglin circle.

Sun Youwei now understands what Si Miaoxue meant. Such an outstanding man, if you don’t act first, you’ll regret it if someone else takes him away.

As soon as Xia Zhu received it, she immediately transcribed a copy and, without sleeping all night, returned home the next morning.

This gave Xia Yuan, her father, quite a fright, thinking something was wrong.

When Xia Yuan saw Xia Zhu’s handwritten "Three Character Classics of Pharmacy", he was so excited he trembled. Most of the knowledge in it is simple, but it is catchy and very suitable for beginners. With such a book, how much effort would learners and teachers of medicine save?

In the past, there were beginner medical books, but compared to this, those are like garbage.

This is the true beginner’s medical book.

This is the Bible for people studying medicine!

It’s an absolute classic.

"This was compiled by Mr. Lin, wasn’t it?" Xia Yuan wasn’t foolish. His own daughter didn’t have such ability. If she did, she wouldn’t be thirty years old and still unable to pass the "Physician Exam".

"Yes, Mr. Lin adopted more than a dozen orphans, and to teach them literacy, he casually wrote this in a few days..." Xia Zhu said lightly.

"Casually wrote..." Xia Yuan was astounded. What kind of great talent, no, genius, does it take to achieve this?

Just to enlighten the adopted children, he compiled a beginner’s medical book. Isn’t that too exaggerated?

"Xia Zhu, you transcribed and brought it back, Mr. Lin won’t be upset, right?"

"No, Mr. Lin said he would be happy if this beginner’s medical book could spread throughout the world." Xia Zhu shook her head.

"Good. I want to submit this ’Three Character Classics of Pharmacy’ under Mr. Lin’s name to the Scripture Pavilion at our Dongshan Prefecture’s Xinglin Institute!" Xia Yuan’s beard trembled with excitement.

"Dad, what’s going on with our pharmacy? Haven’t the permits and prescriptions been settled yet?" Xia Zhu asked while she was back.

"Not yet. There’s no problem with the Pharmacist Association. The issue is with the Physician Association blocking it..." Xia Yuan answered hesitantly.

"Why? Wasn’t it agreed to open a new pharmacy?"

"Initially, they agreed, but later someone opposed it. The opposition reason was that Mr. Lin’s convenient medical diagnosis point had already taken away business from Anning Hall. If we open another pharmacy, it would drive Anning Hall into a dead end. Some people felt that we are too domineering and not leaving any room for others, so they didn’t agree to the permit." Xia Yuan explained.

"What kind of reason is that? Anning Hall’s Song Yunzhong’s medical skills aren’t good, and yet he blames others. Haven’t the people of Xiuyue Square sought his medical help over the years? How come he is rendered ineffective as soon as Mr. Lin arrived?" Xia Zhu replied angrily with a snort. "Fine, Mr. Lin said if the two major medical and pharmaceutical associations do not agree to us opening a pharmacy, he will seek other pharmacies to cooperate with. It’s just about making patients walk a few more steps, but the prescriptions from the convenient medical diagnosis point can be filled at any designated pharmacy in the city, right?"

"This..." Xia Yuan was stunned by this, realizing that patients don’t necessarily have to buy medicine from Anning Hall. It’s merely because it’s relatively nearby.

I’m just opening a new pharmacy, yet you insist on stonewalling it, thus cutting off your lifeline completely.

"We didn’t intend to make money by opening a pharmacy. We merely wanted to make it more convenient for the patients, but some people not only refuse to help but also block our way. As for Anning Hall’s Song Yunzhong, Mr. Lin was even considering buying his pharmacy and allowing him to continue as the resident physician there, but it’s not good enough for him, he’s never satisfied!"

"That’s something passed down by their ancestors. You think it’s so simple just to transfer ownership, girl. You’re oversimplifying the issue," Xia Yuan sighed.

"Then what should we do? Without our own pharmacy, diagnosing and prescribing medicine will be very troublesome for Mr. Lin." Xia Zhu understood Lin Miao’s difficulties.

Lin Miao’s prescriptions occasionally include items not on the medicinal inventory, and some are particularly hard to procure. It’s not about fearing the prescriptions are stolen but about the issues with the preparation of the medicine. If it’s not right, and patients don’t get results, whose fault is it?

With their own pharmacy, they can prepare the medicine themselves and control the quality of the herbs. Physicians must be familiar with the properties of herbs. Herbs from different regions can have varied properties due to differences in soil, climate, even for the same type of herb. This affects both usage and dosage.

A truly good physician not only needs to master the patient’s condition and make accurate judgments but also needs to understand the properties of each batch of herbs to make treatment more effective.

"And this old face of mine is already unpopular. I might as well put it on the line. Don’t worry, if this issue doesn’t get resolved, I’ll personally seek out Mr. Sang and Ye Shengyuan every day!" Xia Yuan declared.
