After the first patient came, the second and third arrived quickly.
Su Wen tailored the treatment to each patient, diagnosing and prescribing with astonishing speed. Some onlookers, seeing the new pharmacy operate so efficiently, also wanted to try treating some old ailments.
As more and more patients visited, a local delinquent keeping watch nearby sensed trouble and hastily dialed his boss's number.
In fact, it was this delinquent who had arranged for yesterday's garbage truck incident. He hadn't expected Su Wen not to call the police or lose his temper but to calmly deflate eight tires and then close up shop early for the day.
When the two sanitation workers found out, they went insane!
They had government jobs, and while out on a private gig to block the door, ended up with eight tires destroyed—how could they explain this to their superiors?
In this small town, even if they wanted to replace the tires at their own expense, they wouldn't be able to find the right model!
