The Supreme Village Doctor

Chapter 113: Chapter 114: A Sudden Idea

Li Yang almost choked on her words. ’I just don’t have that much money.’

"President Li, why don’t I invest as well?" Seeing the look on Li Yang’s face, the proprietress had a good idea of the situation and giggled. "Look, I know this business, and I have experience. I can invest a little, and it would also lighten President Li’s burden."

Li Yang glanced at her but didn’t refuse.

"Ma’am..." Just then, a middle-aged man walked in with some people, a broad smile on his face. "You still have those wild onions? Scramble them with eggs for us—ten orders."

"Huh?" The proprietress was stunned. "Mr. Lin, you must be joking. Why ten orders?"

"You don’t know!" the middle-aged man said conspiratorially. "These wild onions of yours are something else. After my own personal testing, I’ve confirmed this stuff is a potent aphrodisiac. After eating your scrambled eggs with wild onions last night, I felt a whole new level of energy. When it was time to perform my husbandly duties, my wife said I was way more impressive than before."

Li Yang let out a PFFT of laughter.

The proprietress shot Li Yang a glare.

The middle-aged man looked a little awkward.

"It’s fine, it’s fine..." the proprietress said, trying to smooth things over. "Young people don’t understand the struggles of middle-aged men. Please don’t mind him. Um... we can do it, but our scrambled eggs with wild onions are quite expensive!"

"Not a problem!" The middle-aged man felt like Li Yang was looking down on his virility, so he had to regain some face. He patted his wallet and said, "When you get to middle age, you know your own struggles. But money... well, I still have plenty of that."

The proprietress’s eyes lit up. "Understood! This way, please!"

The middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction and immediately went to find a table.

Soon after, several other men followed him into a private room.

"You see? You should have more fun while you’re young..." the proprietress said pointedly to Li Yang. "By the time they get to this age, even if they want to play, they can’t. Their bodies won’t let them!"

"You seem to have a lot of experience with this, ma’am," Li Yang couldn’t help but quip.

"You bet I do!" The proprietress seemed quite proud of it. "You probably don’t know this, but I divorced my husband because the guy was useless in bed but still ran off to keep a mistress. He couldn’t even satisfy me, so what was he going to do for someone else?"

Li Yang was dumbfounded. ’Lady, you’re way too intense.’

"Do you think all middle-aged men have this problem?" the proprietress mused to herself. "Sigh, it’s not easy for any of them."

But a flash of lightning went through Li Yang’s mind, and he abruptly shot to his feet.

’Damn, if this is a common problem for middle-aged men, I think I know what to do.’

"What’s wrong?" the proprietress asked, looking at him.

Li Yang gave a sly grin. "Ma’am, it seems you really understand middle-aged men. I really have to thank you for this."

"Of course I understand middle-aged men. But as for young guys like you... I don’t know you that well. Why don’t we get to know each other right now?" the proprietress said with a foxy allure.

’Have to admit, she really is a vixen.’

But Li Yang’s mind wasn’t on that right now. He shook his head and said, "Let’s put a pin in that for now. Let me ask you something. The customers who eat here are basically all middle-aged men, right?"

"More or less," the proprietress nodded. "The prices at our resort are quite high. The average working stiff can’t afford it, so the ones who can are middle-aged men with some spare cash. Why?"

"The wild onions are selling so well. Do you think it’s because everyone has discovered this ’problem’?" Li Yang asked with a smile.

The proprietress had a sudden realization. "You’re saying... that they’re all not doing so great physically? They’re eating the wild onions not just for the taste, but for what it does to their bodies?"

Li Yang chuckled slyly.

"No wonder!" The proprietress slammed her hand on the table. "These guys order plate after plate of wild onions. I just thought they really loved the taste, but it turns out there’s this other benefit."

"Wild onions are just a vegetable, after all. They have an effect, but it’s not that strong," Li Yang said with a conspiratorial glint in his eye. "Ma’am, let’s make a deal. What if I sell a medicinal liquor here? One that specifically treats men’s ’performance’ issues."

"Huh?" The proprietress looked at Li Yang suspiciously. "How would you have a medicinal liquor like that? ’A long illness makes a good doctor,’ is that it? Are you already having problems at your young age?"

Dark lines formed on Li Yang’s forehead. "What nonsense are you talking about? I’m a village doctor. I’m very good at treating illnesses."

"Just saying so isn’t enough!" the proprietress said with a straight face. "Talk is cheap, you know."

’Ever since this proprietress found out I have wild onions and supply the Grand Golden Pavilion Hotel, she’s had no shame. She takes every chance she can to throw herself at me.’

"We can... study the matter together one day," Li Yang said evasively.

"Deal!" The proprietress’s eyes lit up. "Then it’s a date... By the way, is that medicinal liquor you mentioned any good?"

"Of course it is!" Li Yang said seriously. "My medicinal liquor... one dose will last you a month, at least."

"Is it really that amazing?" The proprietress was itching to try it. "Why don’t you... let me have a drink and test it out first?"

"And what good would that do you?" Li Yang looked at her. "I think you’re fired up enough as it is!"
