Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Medical resources are important in any era.

Even if Liu Ping'an doesn't need it, he still has to consider the people around him.

Through this meal at Cao's house, Liu Ping'an also came up with the idea of ​​increasing his bargaining chips.

After dinner, Liu Ping'an helped to clear the table and wash the dishes, and was appreciated by Cao Guangyao.

As a middle-aged man who loves his family, he particularly despises the kind of male chauvinism that treats his family like slaves and expects everything from him.

My friends, times have changed.

After Liu Ping'an finished packing, he drank some tea at Cao's house and then found an excuse to leave.

What's the matter with staying in someone else's house all the time?

Besides, there are pregnant women at home who need to rest. It’s not that we should be selfish, but we should also learn to treat others as we would like to be treated.

When Liu Ping'an left, he looked at the clock at Cao's house and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

He planned to go to Beihai Park to see the uncle who had cheated him and see whether his fishing today was going well and whether he was lucky.

He knew from Lou Xiao'e's words that the third uncle couldn't stand Xu Damao.

He just wanted to disgust Xu Damao, but of course it is also possible that he really wanted to introduce a partner to Liu Ping'an.

So he brought Lou Xiao'e to his doorstep.

If it hadn't been revealed later and discovered by Xu Damao, it would have been a real mess, but it's almost the same now.

There is basically no chance for Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e.

But unless it was necessary, Liu Ping'an had no intention of provoking Lou Xiao'e, as her family situation was too complicated.

But it's not something Liu Ping'an, with his weak arms and legs, can resist. He is not alone, so why should he wade into this muddy water?

Liu Ping'an was walking towards Beihai Park, and passed by a medicinal materials wholesale station.

I actually saw Song Ming walking out from inside.

Song Ming was the first person to notice Liu Ping'an. His eyes lit up and he happily came over to greet him.

"Xiao Ping'an, I just asked Xiao Yang where you live. The bear gall you gave me last time really helped me a lot."

Song Ming happily hugged Liu Ping'an's arm, his face flushed.

It seems that he has been living a good life recently, which may really be the effect of the bear bile.

"The money and goods are cleared, and it's not a gift from me, so it doesn't count as a favor."

Liu Ping'an likes to use the tactic of retreating in order to advance, which usually works well, especially when dealing with people of status and position.

"Hahaha, Xiao Yang said that you are a different person. I really think so now. You distinguish between gratitude and resentment and never take advantage of others. I like people like you."

Song Ming really likes people with Liu Ping'an's personality. Smart people are easy to communicate with, and some things can be understood tacitly.

And if you have the ability, you can provide some help.

This ability certainly does not refer to Liu Ping'an's ability to fight a blind bear, but to his way of dealing with people.

"Have a safe trip. I happen to be free today, so I'd like to invite you to have a drink."

Song Ming was so enthusiastic that Liu Ping'an couldn't refuse his kindness, so he nodded and followed him.

Besides, some things are best discussed over a drink. When everyone is a little tipsy and in a good mood, no one will refuse your request.

Otherwise, why were so many things in my previous life accomplished at the drinking table?

Following Song Ming, Liu Ping'an discovered that the place Song Ming was going to was one that Liu Ping'an had never been to.

"This is Daqianmen. I see you've never been here before. Come on, I'll take you for a drink."

Daqianmen?

Liu Ping'an followed Song Ming closely and followed him into a tavern.

It was the first time for Liu Ping'an to come to a tavern of this era. The tavern was not big, but there were quite a few customers. They didn't order much, just a little food and a pot of wine, and sat there to savor the food carefully.

Liu Ping'an was familiar with this look. The old man in the teahouse in his hometown was the same, sitting and drinking for most of the day.

Liu Ping'an followed Song Ming and found a place to sit down, and then an old waiter came over.

"Xiao Cai, why isn't your boss Xu here?"

Little?

Liu Ping'an had a strange expression on his face. He looked at the guy called "Xiao Cai" and then at Song Ming.

This Xiao Cai looks older than Song Ming. Could it be that Song Ming simply has some secret to maintain his youthful appearance?

If it is true, I have to ask you, how can you still be so young at this age?

"Haha, Doctor Song, Huizhen has gone to get some wine. The production of wine has been too low recently. She has to go early to avoid it running out and leaving us with nothing to drink."

"Cai Quanwu is right. We can drink wine only thanks to Xiao Xu."

The person who said this was an old man. He was sitting at the table next to Song Ming. He was talking and sipping wine, looking comfortable.

"Xiao Niu, why are you drinking here in the middle of the day?"

Song Ming looked at the old man and frowned, which made Liu Ping'an surprised again.

How did Song Ming achieve this skill? This old man is older than Xiao Cai, so why does Song Ming still call him Xiao Niu?

"Oh, I was so drunk that I didn't even notice you were here. I have to thank you for the medicine you prescribed for me last time."

The old man called Xiao Niu then saw Song Ming. He stood up happily and stood beside Song Ming respectfully.

"You know you can't abstain from alcohol even with the medicine I prescribed for you? Take care of yourself and drink less."

"Don't worry, I'll just drink this small cup and I won't drink any more after that."

Song Ming nodded and didn't try to persuade him. His body is his own. What's the point of worrying about him not wanting to do it? That's all he had to say.

"Okay, Xiao Cai, that's all. Come on, I need to have a few more drinks with my little brother."

"Don't worry, Doctor Song. I'll be there right away."

After the waiter left, Liu Ping'an couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Song, how old are you?"

Song Ming was a very smart man. He knew there was a misunderstanding when he saw Liu Ping'an's expression. He smiled and said:

"Don't be fooled by your old appearance, Xiao Cai. You are actually only in your early 30s. That's just how you look."

"And that little calf, nicknamed Niu Ye, is a relative of mine. According to seniority, he is my nephew, so I call him Little Calf."

Liu Ping'an finally understood and felt a little disappointed.

He thought Song Ming was in his seventies or eighties and that he looked young only because of some secret techniques.

However, Mr. Niu, Cai Quanwu, and Boss Xu Huizhen reminded him of a drama he had watched before, "The Little Women of Zhengyang Gate".

It seems that this world should be a mixed world.

I don’t know if the roles he has played in other movies and TV series are there.

"But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether there is one or not. I won't deliberately make friends."

Liu Ping'an shook his head, and Cai Quanwu then served the side dishes and brought up a wine jug.

Song Ming took the wine jug and poured it into two cups. He couldn't wait to pick up the glass and drink it all in one gulp. Immediately, all the features on his face wrinkled, and he felt so refreshed.

After a few rounds of drinking, Song Ming became a little tipsy and started talking about interesting things and difficulties in the hospital.

Liu Ping'an's eyes were still bright because he didn't drink any alcohol. When he drank, he poured all of it into the Lingquan space.

He didn't drink much in his previous life, and it's even less likely that he would drink in this life. He still wants to live a long life.

"Let me tell you, we haven't had an easy time since the drought began, especially for those who fled here. It was really miserable. We tried our best, but we only saved some people..."

Song Ming felt a little lost. For a person with medical ethics, this kind of thing was indeed tormenting.

The saying “Good men don’t live long, while bad men leave their mark for thousands of years” actually means that good men have high moral standards and are more likely to die young, while bad men are shameless and so can live longer.

It’s hard to say about the latter, but if the former is truly a person with high moral standards, he is indeed more likely to die young.

When they see someone in misfortune, they will definitely take action bravely, which will increase the probability of them encountering danger and the probability of accidents.

"It's okay, at least the people who are still alive are fine."

Song Ming shook his head and raised the wine glass in his hand and shook it: "As long as the drought is not over, the situation will be bad. Fortunately, the situation is getting better year by year, otherwise we really can't survive it."

Liu Ping'an agreed with this point. This year is better than last year in any case, and the scope of the drought will also decrease.

"By the way, I see you've been wanting to say something. If you have something to say, just tell me. Although there's a big age gap between us, do you think I look like an old person? I'm younger in mentality than young people."

Liu Ping'an also thought so. When talking with Song Ming, you felt that he was not very old and was very much like those young doctors.

"It's like this. The wife of a friend of mine is almost nine months pregnant. He wants to ask if there are any beds available at Union Hospital so that his wife can move in early, in case her water breaks. But he said that beds are tight recently. I won't hide it from you. His father is the head of the security department of our factory, but he is a decent person and has never thought of using any connections..."

The following statement by Liu Ping'an is just a lie. It's simply that Cao Guangyao doesn't have any connections in this area.

"Well, the beds at Union Hospital are indeed tight recently, but there are still some. A group of patients have been discharged recently. I can arrange a long-term bed for you, but the hospitalization fee is not low..."

"It's okay, it's okay. His family all have salaries, so they can definitely afford it."

"That's good. I'm going to work tomorrow. You can tell your friends to come to the Internal Medicine Department to see me when they are free these few days. If they don't see me, tell the nurse to look for Dr. Song Ming, who was introduced by Liu Ping'an. I will know then."

Liu Ping'an was touched. He didn't expect Song Ming to do him a favor.

"Okay, I'll go talk to him later. Come on, have a couple more drinks."
