After Kino offers the seed pearls as payment, the doctor's servant tells him that the doctor is unavailable, under the pretext that he has to see another client with a more serious issue. In truth, the doctor turns Kino away because the seed pearls are not very valuable to him, showcasing the doctor as greedy and un-empathetic.
