Chapter 744 - Heading for His Doom (2/2)

Qin Haodong said calmly, “But sir, he brought the ginseng here and said that it’s a century-old treasure. He also mentioned that he found it in the remote mountains. How could it be fake?”

“If it’s really fake, you should arrest him instead of me.”

“What…”

Qiu Yutang was a little confused. The fake ginseng belonged to his cousin and it had nothing to do with this young man even if it was fake.

Having worked in the Sanitary Bureau for so many years, it was the first time he had encountered such a strange thing.

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Sir, I paid 200,000 yuan for it at first, but he insisted on buying it back. He even threatened to kill himself if I did not agree. So I had no choice but to sell it to him again. When did I cheat him?”

The patients were witnesses to the dealing. They immediately came over to testify for Qin Haodong.

“Yes, we saw it with our own eyes. The middle-aged man brought the ginseng here and it had nothing to do with Doctor Qin, no matter if it was fake or not…”

“We can testify that he insisted on buying this ginseng back at that time. He said that he would kill himself in the clinic if Doctor Qin did not agree. Why did he come back? Shame on him!”

“All right, shut up!”

Qiu Yutang could not outargue them, so he shouted angrily and tried to shut them up, by using his authority.

Since this young man had no family background here, he could do whatever he wanted. He did not believe that an outsider would dare to resist arrest.

At the same time, the pockmark-faced man and the middle-aged man turned vicious. They reached out and intentionally exposed the handles of the daggers protruding from their waistbands.

At the sight of the daggers, the patients immediately shut up and stepped backward.

They were just patients who came here to see a doctor. It was easy to do justice for Qin, but it would not be worth it if they died for it.

Qiu Yutang said to Qin Haodong, “I don’t care if you cheated him or not. This is a clinic and you must be responsible for your patients and customers. Hurry up and take your ginseng back. Besides, give them 1.2 million yuan.”

Su Hui said, “Sir, what are you talking about? We can give them one million yuan, but why do we still need to pay an extra 200,000 yuan?”

Qiu Yutang said, “He sold the ginseng to you for 200,000 yuan. Don’t you remember that?”

Su Hui said, “We don’t want the ginseng now. Can we give the ginseng back and pay them one million yuan?”

Qiu Yutang said, “No, you can’t. The ginseng has been sold to you. You can’t return it at will.”

Although Qin had already realized that Qiu Yutang was working with the brothers, he was still surprised by his impudence. He snorted with laughter, “Sir, you’re so strange. They can return the ginseng, but why can’t we do that?”

Qiu Yutang stiffened at his words and then he said, “You’re the merchants and must be reputable. You have to receive it since your customer wants to return the goods. But this guy is just an ordinary farmer, so you’re not allowed to give the ginseng back to him.”

Qin Haodong said, “We don’t agree. It doesn’t make sense.”

Su Hui said, “We can give them one million yuan, but the extra 200,000 yuan is not his.”

Qiu Yutang was longing to buy a diamond ring for his wife with the 200,000 yuan, so he immediately widened his eyes and said in a tough tone, “Just do whatever I say. Do you still want to run a clinic here?”

“Do you think you have the final say as to whether they can run a clinic here?”

Liao Shuyuan had already heard the whole story. She couldn’t hold back her anger anymore and walked out of the massage room.

Qiu Yutang turned back and saw Liao Shuyuan. Although he was working in the Ministry of Health, he was just a petty official and did not even know who she was. He thought that Liao was just an ordinary patient here. So he shouted, “It’s none of your business! Get out of my way!”

Liao Shuyuan was immediately irritated. She had never been humiliated in public like this before.

“What are you talking about? How dare you talk to me like this?”

“I’m telling you that I’m from the Inspection Section of the Sanitary Bureau and I’m here to enforce the law. Stop interfering with official business, or I’ll arrest you.”

Hearing his impolite words, Liao Shuyuan trembled with great anger. She pointed at his nose and shouted, “You’re from the Sanitary Bureau, aren’t you? You want to arrest me, don’t you? Just wait and see.”

Then she took out her mobile phone and called Yang Haizheng, the director of the Sanitary Bureau, “Old Yang, no matter where you’re now, just come to the Donghui Clinic of Traditional Chinese Medicine within five minutes.”

Yang Haizheng was busy with official affairs with his driver and he was quite astonished after hearing Liao Shuyuan’s words. He had never seen the minister’s wife lose her temper before. He wondered what had happened to her.

But no matter what, he had to get there immediately. He said to the driver, “Turn around quickly. We must go to the Donghui Clinic of Traditional Chinese Medicine within five minutes. Be quick!”

Liao Shuyuan was still angry after she hung up. She called another person, “Cousin, I’m at the Donghui Clinic of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Someone said that he is about to arrest me. Come here quickly…”

Qiu Yutang watched Liao Shuyuan making phone calls and sneered, “You’re asking someone for help, aren’t you? Do you think I’ll be scared of you? I’ll wait here and see who can help you!”

Qin Haodong shook his head silently. He had never seen such a stupid man who was heading for his doom. He was abusing his power and showing off to the minister’s wife. It seemed that this guy would definitely be fired.

Liao Shuyuan sneered and said, “Then let’s wait and see if you can still be happy later.”

“Ha… Ha… Ha… Ha…” Qiu Yutang burst into wild laughter, “What can you do to me? Can you fire me?”

He got along quite well with the other officials in the Sanitary Bureau, which was the reason why he could be promoted to the current position. One of the deputy directors was his acquaintance, so he did not even take this woman seriously.

Then he pulled up a chair and sat down.

After a while, he looked at his watch and said, “Bitch, it’s been five minutes. Where’s your helper?”
