Siheyuan: I stand for Xu Damao because he is my brother

So how much is the purchase price of this thing now?

1 yuan and 3 cents per gram.

Moreover, this price was set uniformly by the higher authorities. It remained the same from 57 to 79, and only about 10 to 30 kilograms were collected each year.

It is precisely because the purchase price has not increased that it has become difficult to purchase musk, and incidents of it being secretly stolen overseas have occurred frequently.

With an egg as good in quality and complete as the one in Xu Dacan's hand, and with Xu Jiang's technique, he should be able to extract about 35 grams of musk.

This is already amazing! So now this thing is simply not in demand, no one is selling it at the unified purchase price, 50 yuan you are giving to beggars?

In the end, the musk egg was taken by Deputy Director Li's father-in-law, but Xu Jiang did not lose out either. The old man said that he should be asked to prepare musk heart pills in the future.

I don’t know how much Xu Jiang has earned this time, so he is eager to treat Xu Dacan to a meal.

"..."

Before going to Shunyi County, an incident occurred.

After Xu Damao finished the first dose of "Zhang Xian Song Zi Tang", he wanted to go and see Dr. Liu in person so that he could make some additions or subtractions based on the prescription.

But who is Dr. Liu? Xu Damao didn't have enough face, so he could only ask Xu Dacan to take him to visit him.

The name of the clinic under which Dr. Liu practiced medicine was Huang Baitang.

In this area, especially in the 1950s and 1960s, those who dared to use "XX Hall" as their trademark were all famous doctors who had made a name for themselves through their real abilities!

If you are not an acquaintance, you can’t even get in the door.

Now, they are in a dilemma.

Xu Dacan told the old man who was sitting in the clinic about his intention, but the old man held a medical book in his hand and said without even raising his head: "Do you have an appointment?"

"Dr. Liu and I have an appointment. We even had dinner together last time..."

The old man looked up and glanced at him with disdain on his face: "Then why didn't he tell me? I've seen many people like you. They all said they had an appointment with Dr. Liu, and they all said they had dinner with him."

?! Xu Dacan clenched his fists tightly, and really wanted to hit him on the head with a heavy punch!

It was hard to explain to such a snob, so Xu Dacan had no choice but to come out and say to Damao: "It's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with the little devil. How about you wait here for a while, I'll ride your bike to Tong Ren Tang."

Just as Xu Dacan took the bicycle key and was about to leave, a voice suddenly called him from behind: "Xu Dacan?"

The voice sounded familiar, and when he turned around, it was Liu Yueru who was calling his name tentatively.

"It's really you!" Liu Yueru took two quick steps forward with some excitement.

When he got closer, he asked him again, "You are standing at the door but you won't go in. What's wrong? Do you dislike my house?"

The girl's voice sounded cold, and she liked to use stress at the beginning and end of each sentence, which sounded like a special rhythm. It was like a clear mountain spring, refreshing.

Xu Dacan complained: "Don't mention it, it's just that old man you hired who wouldn't let us in and even bullied me, saying he's seen a lot of people like me!"

Liu Yueru turned her head away and couldn't help laughing secretly. Then she said to him with a smile: "Okay, okay, come with me."

Calling Xu Damao, the three of them went around to another alley and came to the gate of a courtyard. Liu Yueru said to Xu Dacan: "Do you remember this road? Don't go to the shop next time."

This is not unfair. All of Liu Huangbai’s serious acquaintances know this place. If they really make an appointment, they will come here directly.

Only someone like Xu Dacan would go to someone else's shop, so naturally people would regard him as a liar who is using a tiger's skin as a banner!

This is a small courtyard with an entrance. Many such courtyards were demolished later. It is also the most basic prototype of the Siheyuan.

The biggest feature of this courtyard is that it has three main rooms and an ear room on each side; but because the courtyard is small and only wide enough for four rooms, in fact, half an ear room is set up on each side, which forms a "four broken five" layout.

Doctor Liu came out as soon as he heard his daughter talking to a strange male.

Both ears stand up long!

But Liu Yueru still stabbed her old father in the heart. She grabbed the arm of "the yellow-haired man" and said to him: "Dad, Xu Dacan is here!"

Liu Huangbai gritted his teeth and said, "Come if you want, I'm not a big shot..."

No, why is he here?!

Seeing Liu Huangbai's murderous look, Xu Dacan calmly shook off Liu Yueru's arm, then said to him in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Doctor Liu, my brother has already taken the first dose of the prescription you prescribed last time. Could you please take a look?"

Since they came for serious business, Liu Huangbai had no choice but to invite them into the house.

But what he didn't expect was that his butt wasn't even warm enough after he sat down.

Liu Yueru said to Xu Dacan, "My father needs quiet time to see a doctor. Let's not get in the way here. Come with me to the yard."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. Liu Huangbai is a men's doctor, and Liu Yueru should be cautious when consulting him.

But just as they lifted the curtain and went out, before the curtain fell completely, they heard Liu Yueru muttering in a low voice: "It's boring to see my dad for a medical check-up..."

Liu Huangbai, who was pouring water for Xu Damao, couldn't help but tremble his hand, and the scalding hot tea poured over Xu Damao's hand, scalding him so much that he screamed!

"..."

When they arrived at the courtyard, Liu Yueru asked worriedly, "Did you fight with anyone the last time you went back?"

Fight? And last time? Xu Dacan asked her uncertainly: "Which time are you talking about?"

Liu Yueru couldn't believe it: "Which time? Do you often fight with others?"

Xu Dacan quickly denied: "No, no, I always like to talk to people calmly."

Unexpectedly, Liu Yueru actually believed it: "Well, you are a person, how should I put it? You are so big, but you don't give people the illusion of being rude and unreasonable like the people I know. Instead, you make people feel a little gentle..."

As soon as she said this, Liu Yueru realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly tried to make amends: "I was talking about the lines! Your lines are so soft; yes, that's it!"

Xu Dacan complained in his heart: I am a shrimp, and I have shrimp thread?

But this girl is quite interesting. She is very graceful in her dealings with others, without any of the spoiled affectation. Plus, she comes from a well-educated family, so she naturally develops a sense of confidence.

In sharp contrast is Qin Jingru, who is reckless, has long hair and little knowledge...

Xu Dacan asked Liu Yueru curiously: "Did you hear any rumors outside?"

After being baptized by the world where conspiracy theories were prevalent, Xu Dacan still thought that it was Sha Zhu or Yi Zhonghai who spread rumors about him and ruined his reputation.

Liu Yueru gave him a strange look and said, "That day in the alley outside Tong Ren Tang, your brother gnashed his teeth and said he would make you beat someone up. I happened to be passing by and heard everything."
