“According to that insolent quack,” Hemarchidas sneered. “Has he at least examined you thoroughly?”

“Oh, yes, I dare say he did,” Anaxantis replied. “Believe me, he was thorough enough. He wouldn’t let me pay him, you know? He said he had stopped asking money from his patients almost fifteen years ago, on account of that he had enough of the stuff, and that it permitted him to choose who he wanted to treat. But he seems to accept presents, like he did from that farmer.”

At the first shop that sold them, Anaxantis bought fifty live chickens, to be delivered immediately to the good doctor. He sent two of his personal guards with the shop owner’s sons, to help and keep an eye on things.

“Just drop them in the hall and be sure to tell him that they’re a gift from Anaxantis,” he instructed his men.

“Fifty chickens?” Hemarchidas shouted. “How much did you pay for them?”

“Two moltar, I believe,” Anaxantis replied.

“Two moltar? You little fool. You’ve been robbed blind. Do you even know the value of anything?” Hemarchidas said, vexed.

“I think I know your value,” Anaxantis laughed. “At the moment you’re priceless. Come, there was a bookshop somewhere here.”
