Chapter 56: Gifts That Touch the Heart



Ren Wufei has now realized that this young apprentice came to work in the hospital purely for the sake of status.

The identity of a doctor is just a layer of protection for him, a "speculator".

After all, people who have a job and those who don’t are treated completely differently in society. People without a job can’t even travel far away.

As soon as the female colleagues arrived at Meiyuan, they felt like they were at home. Except for Gu Lin, the others went to the east wing to prepare dinner.

What is Gu Lin doing? Of course, she is helping everyone "test poison". There are grapes and pomegranates on the table, and the little girl loves them.

Liu Bo and Qian Jun were visiting the Plum Garden for the first time, so they were obviously surprised. However, when they thought about how Chen Xia wouldn't have any chance of corruption, they didn't say much despite their doubts.

Dean Gu had been here many times. This time, he took the initiative to act as a guide and introduced the architectural features of the courtyard to his two subordinates.

Chen Xia poured a cup of tea for each person, and then said mysteriously:

"Leaders, I got a batch of porcelain from the scrap yard. Are you interested in appreciating it?"

Now all four of them became interested, except Ren Yuanfei of course, but he also followed everyone to the small building in the backyard to join in the fun.

When they arrived at the backyard, Chen Xia opened the door and everyone exclaimed when they saw half the room full of porcelain piled on the ground.

Several leaders even stopped drinking tea and couldn't wait to appreciate it, communicating with each other while watching.

"Hey, Old Gu, look at this blue and white bowl with floral patterns from the Xuantong era. It's a fine piece. Look at the body and glaze. It's amazing! How could it be sold as scrap? Who wouldn't know the value of it?"

When Zhang Zhizhong couldn't let go of a bowl, Qian Jun also exclaimed loudly while holding a bottle.

"Oh my god, come and see, is this a Ru kiln?"

Everyone was shocked, even Chen Xia was shocked. Could it be that Old Man Ying had made a mistake? Did he miss the treasure?

This is a big deal, as it concerns the accuracy of the appraisal results this afternoon.

Dean Gu was not polite either. He snatched the bottle away without paying any attention to the rule of "no touching" and walked outside to take a closer look.

Then, in everyone's expectant eyes, he smacked his lips.

"What Ru kiln? Old Qian, you have such a good eye. This is an imitation of Ru kiln, a bottle from the Xianfeng period."

Chen Xia breathed a sigh of relief, while the others expressed disappointment.

Dean Gu was not disappointed, but liked the bottle very much.

After all, this bottle is very delicately made with a natural glaze. It is a rare imitation Ru kiln work and has good collection value as a cultural relic.

What is the highest state of gift-giving? It is to give gifts elegantly, to touch the heart of the person.

Chen Xia carefully observed the expressions of the four leaders, and then pretended to be generous and said:

"Hey, these bottles and jars are not valuable things. If you like them, just take them and play with them."

Dean Gu kept his eyes on the imitation Ru kiln, but said reluctantly:

"This won't do. We can't take even a single needle or thread from the people."

The other leaders all nodded.

Chen Xia smiled and said, "The things collected from the scrap yard are only worth a few dollars. How about this, leaders, just give one or two yuan and buy the porcelain you like. Yes, the fake Ru kiln porcelain in Dean Gu's hand, one yuan."

Old man Gu glared.

"Vulgar, uncultured, this is called an imitation Ru kiln, how can it be considered a fake? Forget it, leaving this treasure to you is simply a pearl covered in dust. Take this yuan, and this treasure will belong to me. Don't cry when the time comes."

Seeing Dean Gu readily take out one yuan, the other leaders all smiled frivolously. In this way, each of them paid one yuan and took away a piece of porcelain.

They say no with their mouths, but their actions are very honest. You can tell their inner joy by looking at the light-hearted way they walk.

"Big Fool Chen" took out four yuan and waved it at Ren Yuanfei, and Ren Yuanfei gave him a thumbs up in tacit understanding.

Chen Xia couldn't let his master down, so he picked up the Guangxu-era red-glazed chicken heart bowl on the ground and gave it to Lao Ren.

"Master, take it."

Ren Yuanfei was very contemptuous. "What use is there for me to take this broken bowl? Who knows where this thing came from? It can't even hold rice."

"Master, you have to believe me. Take this bowl. In 20 years, if you can't sell it for 300,000, I will compensate you 3 million."

"Fuck, is this true?" Ren Yuanfei didn't dare to be careless and even held the bowl carefully. What kind of concept is 300,000? Even if they sold their entire family, it wouldn't be worth that much.

He still believed in Chen Xia's vision. This plum garden was the best proof. This kid's vision was definitely not wrong.

The four senior leaders enjoyed the dinner very much and they liked Chen Xia very much.

If Chen Xia gave them cash today, they would definitely walk away, and he would definitely suffer in the future.

But he resold a few broken jars at a "high price", which made the leaders very satisfied.

No matter whether they are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, they have paid the money and got the porcelain. It is a "fair transaction" and there is no psychological burden.

After dinner, Dean Gu didn’t even want his daughter anymore and ran away in a hurry.

He really ran away. The four leaders were like being chased by a dog. They all rushed home to admire the treasures they had found today.

That itchy feeling, that joy.

As usual, after the dinner, Chen Xia took Gu Lin home. No one wanted to be a third wheel.

The two men deliberately separated from the main group and walked towards the small river in the town.

Gu Lin had forgotten the unpleasantness during the free medical consultation in the countryside, but he hadn't seen this "brother" for many days, and he felt an inexplicable sense of loss and concern in his heart.

"Chen Lao Er, you haven't been seen for these days, what are you doing?"

"Of course it's to earn money for my wife. With our 28 yuan salary, the way you guys eat, my salary is not enough to fill your teeth, especially you, how much do you eat?"

"Hey, it's because we have a good relationship. If it were someone else, I wouldn't even bother to look at them."

"Then I have to thank Miss Gu for her appreciation."

"Hehe, thank you for letting me..."

The two of them walked and talked like this, and Chen Xia produced a bag of plums from his pocket like a magic trick, making the little girl giggle.

There is a faint ambiguity in the autumn evening breeze.

At this time, Dean Gu was sitting at his desk, touching this imitation Ru kiln vase, which made his heart beat as if he was touching his wife when she was young.

I have already forgotten that my little cabbage is enjoying the company of a pig under the moon and flowers.

The other four leaders of the fourth hospital were also excited.

It was a wonderful night for them.
