Blurb:
After Bai Su returns from Medicine King Valley, she quits her job and goes back to her hometown to inherit her grandfather's little clinic.
The clinic is old, run-down, and has no customers. It also has a lot of debt.
To pay it off, Bai Su has no choice but to open the clinic again and sell her exclusive medicinal patches: summer-solstice patches, dampness-relief patches, pain-relief patches, and more.
The townspeople who pass by aren't impressed. You can find medicinal patches everywhere, and they're cheap. Who would buy a plaster for a hundred yuan here?
After a while, they all changed their tune:
"Ever since I started using the Bai Family Clinic's rheumatism pain-relief patch, my leg pain hasn't come back once."
"Ever since I started taking the medicine from the Bai Family Clinic, my asthma of several decades has never flared up again."
"My daughter-in-law had been unable to conceive for years. She took a few doses of their medicine, and now she's about to give birth!"
Word spread from one person to ten, then from ten to a hundred. Every day, before dawn, a long line of patients formed outside the clinic. Countless bigwigs from every walk of life came in person, offering huge sums for treatment, and even people from other countries cut in line to seek treatment.
Bai Su: ...Want to see a doctor? Get in line.

Ever since Jiang Xi inherited an old antique shop, she has had two secrets:
1. She can hear antiques' inner thoughts.
2. She has acquired an antique catalog that needs to be filled in.
To complete the antique catalog, Jiang Xi starts searching high and low for antiques and cultural relics.
At the antique market.
The owner secretly hands Jiang Xi a small bronze wine cup. "Take a look. This is from the Shang and Zhou dynasties..."
The little cup rolls its eyes. "That's right, I'm from last week! That inconspicuous lump of wood next to me is over two hundred years old."
Jiang Xi smiles and strokes it, then takes it and the lump of wood home.
On an antiques appraisal livestream.
A nouveau riche brings out a well-preserved piece of brocade that he bought for a fortune, asking Jiang Xi to appraise it. "They say this was the face towel used by the Kangxi Emperor. It still smells of dragon's-breath incense..."
The brocade looks thoroughly disgusted. "A face towel, my ass! I'm obviously the wiping cloth of an old eunuch. The shabby-looking one you looked down on and didn't buy is the hand towel of the Yongzheng Emperor."
Jiang Xi looks disgusted and wants to throw up, but she endures the nausea, buys the hand towel, and asks where it is.
On a national antiques appraisal show.
A celebrity brings out a jade pillow passed down in their family for appraisal. "Legend has it this was the pillow used by Wu Zetian before she got married. Teacher, could you help identify it?"
The jade pillow curses furiously, in a voice that's both gentle and irritable. "You know I'm the noble pillow used by Wu Zetian, yet every day you make me watch you cheat, engage in group sex, and take drugs. What a disgrace!"
Jiang Xi quietly reports the celebrity, then learns from the jade pillow where its good friend, the golden mandarin-duck pillow, is.
After that, by listening to antiques' thoughts, Jiang Xi learns the whereabouts of even more antiques and works of art, and works hard to recover the missing treasures one by one.
Later, her antique shop becomes a museum with the most comprehensive collection of cultural relics.
Coming soon 3: After Leaving Showbiz, I Strike It Rich by Livestreaming Beachcombing, or Livestreaming My Beachcombing, I Become a Billionaire!
Ye Yu, a minor celebrity, is blacklisted and forced out of the entertainment industry for refusing to submit to unspoken rules. She is also saddled with tens of millions in breach-of-contract fees.
Just when she has no way out, she happens to inherit a mysterious island. The island is vast, its waters are clear and blue, and its natural resources are abundant.
To make a living, she starts livestreaming.
As soon as the livestream begins, her haters flood into the room to mock her: What a cause for celebration! Disgraced celebrity Ye Yu has fallen so low that she's making a living livestreaming her beachcombing!
On the first day, Ye Yu digs up hundreds of pounds of oysters in the rocky shallows and puts them up for sale in her livestream shop. Every one is plump and juicy.
The haters: Hahaha, this is killing me! The water is so polluted these days. Who would dare buy your seafood? And at such high prices, too. Do you think we're stupid? Want us to donate a dime so you can get your head checked?
Ye Yu glances at her sold-out shop. She's already made more than ten thousand yuan in a day without breaking a sweat.
On the second day, Ye Yu gathers hundreds of lively little lobsters in the rocky shallows and puts them up for sale in her livestream shop. They sell out in an instant, bringing her well over a hundred thousand yuan in pure profit.
The haters: Sold out again? Who's so fearless that they'd buy polluted seafood?
Ye Yu looks at the buyers' information in the backend. It's your favorite top-tier star and popular actress.
On the tenth day, Ye Yu swims into a shallow coral reef and gathers hundreds of abalone weighing over three pounds each. She lists them in her livestream shop for ten thousand yuan apiece, and they sell out instantly once again.
Seeing the empty shop, the haters are numb: ...Are they really that delicious?
The popular top-tier stars and rich ladies: No pollution! No additives! All natural! Incredibly delicious!
A month later, the seafood in her livestream shop is snatched up as soon as it's listed.
Her wealthy fans wail: I didn't get any! Put up another batch! I'll pay extra!
Her rivals, former agency, and haters all cry out for reconciliation: We were wrong. Let us buy just one!
Later, Ye Yu makes a fortune livestreaming her beachcombing and becomes the world's richest person.
Later still, her pristine island gradually expands outward, and she becomes a global ambassador for ocean conservation.
