Chapter 410: Establishing a New Sect
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Why? We’ve been using the name ‘Divine Physician Sect’ for over a decade, and you think you can just it back like that?” The Grand Elder refused to comply.
They relied on the reputation of the “Divine Physician Sect” brand to make money. How could they change the name?
Nan Yan’s patience had run out, and her sternness began to show. “Then how do you want to resolve this? I’ll return the shop to you. Is there anything else you’re dissatisfied with?”
“Our medical clinic will naturally continue to be called the ‘Divine Physician Sect,’ and you can open another ‘Divine Physician Sect’ yourself. Consider it as two separate businesses. What do you think?”
“No, we won’t accept that.” Nan Yan’s face had lost all traces of a smile. “Either you elderlies stay honest within the Divine Physician Sect, collect dividends, or you establish your own sect and stop exploiting the Divine Physician Sect’s reputation for profit. I don’t intend to give you a third option.”
“You little brat, you have quite the audacity,” the Grand Elder’s face turned green with anger. “Even Senior Brother Sun doesn’t dare speak to me this way. Are you trying to get expelled from the sect by being insubordinate?”
Sun Chan exploded in anger, “Bullshit! I dare not speak to you? You shameless bastard, not only do you want to bully my disciple, but you also want to suppress me. I think it’s you who’ll be expelled from the sect!”
As the senior disciple with higher seniority and a direct line of descent, Sun Chan had more authority than the Grand Elder. Even Feng Zhengzhi treated him with respect.
The Grand Elder’s arrogant words touched a nerve with him.
He didn’t like dealing with the sect’s trivial matters and had delegated them to the Elder Council and Feng Zhengzhi to avoid the hassle.
In terms of seniority and legitimacy, it was still him and Hua Shifang!
The Grand Elder was embarrassed and silenced by the outburst from Sun Chan.
He gave Sun Chan’s arm a discreet pinch under the table, and then said, “Fine, let’s do as Nan Yan suggested. We’ll establish our own sect, and this shop belongs to us. Senior Brother Sun, please find another location for your medical clinic.”
“Remember, you’re not allowed to use the name ‘Divine Physician Sect’ anymore.” Nan Yan left these words indifferently and added, “Second Master, let’s go.”
“Bring our master’s plaque with us.”
The only item in the shop that belonged to Hua Shifang was the plaque he personally made.
Nan Yan carefully took it down, and she and Sun Chan left, carrying it with
them.
“Why did you agree not to use the name ‘Divine Physician Sect’?” The Grand Elder was still unhappy.
“Grand Elder, think about it. The current authorities recognize all of you, not just a name. In their eyes, you are the ‘Divine Physician Sect.’ Nan Yan, on the other hand, is just a little girl with no recognition. Even if she reopens the
‘Divine Physician Sect,’ she’s just an unknown. Who would dare to seek treatment from her?”
“After all, she has no fame or reputation, and nobody would recognize her.”
After listening to Feng Zhengzhi’s explanation, the Grand Elder finally realized the truth.
“You’re right!” A name was nothing significant in comparison.
“What truly attracts patients is their medical skills!”
“So, what should we change our name to?”
“The Divine Physician Sect emphasizes traditional Chinese medicine techniques, which have been passed down from ancient times. How about renaming it ‘Ancient Medical Clinic’?”
“That works!” The Grand Elder was very satisfied with this name. “Let’s call it ‘Ancient Medical Clinic’ then!”
Nan Yan and the others returned to Sun Chan’s courtyard.
Hua Shifang’s personally crafted plaque was placed carefully on the mahogany table in the living room.
They found a soft cloth and wiped the plaque clean. Nan Yan said softly,
“Brother, help me choose a storefront.”
“Alright, leave it to me..”
