Chapter 741 Just Blessings (asking for monthly tickets)

At 7:10 in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned home and saw a sumptuous dinner. He also saw his third sister who brought the patient to Binhai, as well as Xiaoxue and Zeng Yan.

"Why didn't Fourth Sister and Xiaobo come?"

Qing Ning explained, "My fourth sister and her husband said they were busy recruiting people and opening the store, and my eldest brother-in-law and Xiao Bo were also busy with the renovations."

Xiaoxue quickly interrupted and said, "Uncle, my brother is still busy chasing his girlfriend."

"I even called Aunt Qiu to have her pack dinner for the errand boy to take away..."

Yu Zhiming washed up quickly and sat around the dining table with his family to have dinner.

He learned from his third sister that the county town in his hometown was mobilizing everyone to maintain cleanliness and civilized behavior in preparation for the investment promotion conference in half a month.

Yu Xinyue tutted her words, "Not only is there a lot of noise, but the county leaders have also announced that anyone who fails to do their job, brings discredit to the county, or hinders investment attraction will have their job destroyed."

She took a sip of the abalone soup and continued, "My husband said that the county's finances are under great pressure, and they're counting on this investment promotion to revive it."

"Any public official who dares to slack off and hinders the work will be immediately dismissed."

Yu Xinyue asked again: "Lao Wu, will you go back then?"

Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "I'll try to go back. I also hope that the economy in my hometown can improve."

Yu Xinyue nodded and said, "Old Five, the child's heart surgery is scheduled for next Monday."

"Also, my father asked me to tell you that Uncle Xu's fat granddaughter won't be able to come over until after the 37th day."

Yu Zhiming let out a soft "oh".

Xiaoxue couldn't wait to say, "Uncle, Qi Xin and I have an appointment to go out and play together tomorrow."

Yu Zhiming looked at Zeng Yan and asked, "What about you?"

Xiaoxue chirped and replied for her: "Zeng Yan said she has to study and doesn't have time to play with us."

Yu Zhiming advised: "Studying is not something that can be done overnight. You need to combine work and rest, and don't ruin your health."

Zeng Yan chuckled and said, "Uncle, I pay attention to it. I spend at least an hour every day exercising."

"This big meal tonight and a good night's sleep here are enough to keep me energetic for several days."

Yu Zhiming smiled and stopped persuading him.

Zeng Yan is currently studying with great enthusiasm, so it's not a good idea to let her slow down. Only when she catches up with her classmates in terms of study can she breathe a sigh of relief...

At 8:30 in the evening, after dinner, Yu Zhiming chatted with his family for a while and then called Qingning to the bedroom.

"Qing Ning, your brother and I had a little conflict."

Qing Ning nodded and said, "I know. My brother has already told me. He also said that he was just hot-headed and lost his sense of proportion."

"You admitted your mistake so quickly?" Yu Zhiming was a little surprised.

Qing Ning chuckled and said, "I guess he's not really admitting his mistake, he's just trying to fool you and me."

"I know my brother better."

Yu Zhiming nodded gently and said, "That's right. If you really want to admit your mistake, you should come directly to me, not ask you to convey it."

"Hey, has anything happened to him recently?"

Qing Ning frowned slightly and said, "As the eldest son and grandson of our Gu family's patriarchal lineage, he has always been the focus of attention."

"He must be under a lot of pressure, especially since he's already this old and still doesn't have a son or daughter."

"However, in recent times, there have been more and more voices questioning his abilities."

Yu Zhiming asked doubtfully, "Hasn't he run Ning'an Hospital quite well? He's even turned a profit, and the future is promising."

Qing Ning exhaled softly.

"My brother has been in charge of Ning'an Hospital for two or three years. It's only in the past six months that the hospital has seen significant changes and improvements."

"So, those who question him say that this isn't his management credit, it's all your credit, Zhiming."

"He was just lucky."

Yu Zhiming couldn't help but say with joy: "Isn't it said that luck is also a kind of strength?"

Qing Ning gave Yu Zhiming a pair of charming white eyes.

"I guess my brother was affected by the doubts of his tribe and is a little anxious to prove his ability?"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by Xiaoxue's voice.

"Uncle, a guest is here to see you. He claims to be the son of Ye Huazhang, a renowned Chinese medicine expert..."

Yu Zhiming met Ye Peng in the living room downstairs.

He looks to be in his forties, wearing a pair of glasses. Although he has an ordinary appearance, he has a calm and easy-going air.

"Doctor Yu, here are two ginseng plants. This one is just over fifty years old, having been unearthed recently. This one is about eighty years old, but it's a little damaged."

Yu Zhiming took the two brocade boxes containing ginseng, looked them over briefly, and said politely, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Ye."

"How much is it in total?"

"I'll ask Doctor Wang Wu to pass it on to you."

Ye Peng whispered, "The price of aged wild ginseng has skyrocketed recently."

"Last year, the market value of these two ginseng plants was only around 70,000 to 80,000 and 200,000 yuan respectively."

"Now, even if I used my father's connections, I still had to bid 200,000 and 390,000 to get it."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "We have a lot to contribute to this skyrocketing price."

"Two hundred thousand, three hundred and ninety thousand, it's not expensive. I'm like Han Xin recruiting soldiers here, I can take any amount."

For Yu Zhiming, it is indeed not expensive.

They sell a ginseng life-extending pill to patients for a price of one hundred thousand.

Even if the price of wild ginseng continues to soar, they are not worried, because there is no shortage of buyers for the ginseng life-extending pills.

Rising tide lifts all boats.

Ye Peng said a little embarrassedly: "Originally, there were two ginsengs that I was pretty sure of getting, but they put forward additional conditions. I didn't dare to make a decision on my own, so I put them aside for now."

Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and said, "Then put it aside for now. My need for ginseng is not that urgent anymore."

After all, there are nearly eighty ginseng life-extending pills as a foundation.

With these two ginsengs added, if Yu Zhiming controls the progress appropriately, it will be enough for a year.

He took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Ye, your medicine?"

Ye Peng smiled and said, "The application and approval procedures at your hospital are almost complete. We also need to do some preparatory work ourselves, so we should be able to start in about ten days."

"When the time comes, Dr. Yu will need to work harder."

Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "It's all work, not hard work. I also hope that a good liver-protecting drug can be launched on the market as soon as possible to benefit the majority of liver disease patients."

Ye Peng's newly developed Chinese patent medicine is mainly aimed at alcoholic liver disease and is said to have a good reversal effect.

After chatting for a while, Ye Peng saw that Yu Zhiming no longer mentioned the two ginsengs that he had mentioned with additional conditions, and seemed to have forgotten about them. In this case, he himself did not want to mention it again, so he said goodbye.

With Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning seeing him off, Ye Peng left the Yu family and could only mutter in his heart.

The plans of those two families are probably going to fail...

When Yu Zhiming and Qingning returned to the living room, they saw Xiaoxue and Zeng Yan studying the ginseng.

"Uncle, I don't think the wild ginseng from these decades is much different from the 20-year-old forest ginseng I bought for grandpa before."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "The price is the difference. It's the difference between a few hundred yuan and hundreds of thousands of yuan."

Xiaoxue grinned and said, "I think it's just an IQ tax."

"Will eating these hundreds of thousands of wild ginsengs make me immune to all diseases? Or will it make a seriously ill person recover instantly?"

Yu Zhiming raised his head and flicked the guy on the forehead.

"You're the only one who's smart..."

It was almost ten o'clock in the evening, at Junyi Building, Gu Qingran Apartment.

Gu Qingran and Hua Sifan were drinking wine and talking in the study.

"Qing Ran, I won't say thank you enough. This surgical microscope project is very important to our company."

Gu Qingran took a sip of red wine and said with a smile, "No need to thank me, this is a win-win cooperation for us, let's develop together."

Hua Sifan nodded and said, "The company's technical team will be able to arrive early tomorrow morning to participate in the negotiations with the Germans."

At this point, he asked again: "Qing Ran, I see that you seem to be worried and look a little worried."

Gu Qingran sighed softly and said, "I had a small conflict with Zhiming this afternoon, but it wasn't a big deal."

Hua Sifan uttered a soft "Oh" and said, "It's not a big deal. Why are you so worried?"

"Tell me, how did you make Dr. Yu angry?"

Gu Qingran asked solemnly, "Sifan, do you also think this is my problem, not his?"

Hua Sifan said softly, "Based on my understanding of Doctor Yu, he is a very easy-going person."

"Plus, given the relationship between you two, Dr. Yu won't explode unless he's oppressed to a certain degree."

A small knot appeared between Gu Qingran's eyebrows.

"Sifan, you actually used the word oppression? You should know that we treat Zhiming very well."

Hua Sifan said slowly: "Qingran, I know that you are very good to Dr. Yu."

"But I just want to ask you two questions."

"First, between your Gu family and Dr. Yu, who will benefit more from the cooperation?"

"Secondly, without the help of your Gu family, would Dr. Yu not be who he is today?"

Seeing Gu Qingran lost in thought, Hua Sifan said, "What I can be sure of is that regardless of your Gu family, Dr. Yu will still be Dr. Yu."

Hua Sifan looked at Gu Qingran, who had a serious expression on his face, and said, "Qingran, as a long-time friend, I want to give you a piece of advice."

"When it comes to Dr. Yu, don't act like a superior mentor or benefactor. Also, Qing Ning's relationship with Dr. Yu isn't about marrying down or promoting him."

"Doctor Yu is also an emotionally sensitive person."

Hua Sifan knew that no matter how old friends they were, there were some things they couldn't say too much to.

He changed the subject and said, "I have good news for you. Geng Ruoqing and I are getting married."

Gu Qingran was shocked and didn't care about what happened with Yu Zhiming anymore. She asked anxiously, "Too hasty?"

"Sifan, you need to know her father..."

Hua Sifan interrupted, "I know that her father's death is very likely related to her."

"Even so, so what?"

"Her father had a mistress, and she and the mistress teamed up to deceive and bully her mother, ultimately causing her mother to die of depression."

"Even if it was really her who did it, she only aroused the evil thoughts in the hearts of the mother and son."

Hua Sifan met Gu Qingran's gaze and said, "It's just revenge, but I actually appreciate it."

"I'm not a good person myself, so how can I expect others to be pure and flawless?"

"Qing Ran, you also understand that given the messy situation on my side, marrying a capable wife is actually a good thing."

Seeing that Gu Qingran was still trying to persuade him, Hua Sifan said, "Qingran, there's no need to say anything else. Just give your blessing..."
