Chapter 220 If the Wild Wolf Pack is Destroyed
The door of the bungalow opened, and Lin Sanqi walked out of the house a little tiredly, and was immediately surrounded by people.
Dean Shen held Lin Sanqi's hand. Lin Sanqi's hand was warm, while Dean Shen's hand was cold, which showed his anxiety.
"Xiao Qi, how is it? Zhu Xiaoxia..."
Lin Sanqi held Dean Shen's hand, feeling his coldness, and was quite moved by this lovely and respectable old dean.
"Don't worry, Zhu Xiaoxia's wounds have been treated. My surgical skills are trustworthy. Plus, with the two old men in the room, there won't be any danger."
Dean Shen covered his chest with one hand, feeling relieved: "It's good that he's okay, it's good..."
Zhu Xiaoxia's mother also asked anxiously:
"Chief Lin, will my daughter be disfigured? Will she become disabled?"
Many people saw the tragic scene of Zhu Xiaoxia being bitten all over her body, especially her right foot which was bitten to a bloody mess. Everyone thought that at least her right foot could not be saved and she would be left disabled.
"She won't be disfigured. Luckily, her face wasn't bitten. As for whether she'll be disabled, it's hard to say. The broken tendons have been sewn up, so whether she can be reattached remains to be seen..."
Of course, Lin Sanqi couldn't say anything for sure. What if he said everything was OK now, but the Achilles tendon became inflamed and festered and still ruptured later? That would be a slap in his own face.
When Zhu Xiaoxia's mother heard this, she covered her face and burst into tears again. Then she was helped by several women into the house to see her daughter.
That night, every household in Changping Farm was filled with gloom, and few people could sleep.
The hospital held an emergency meeting.
A group of people sat on the kang in Lin Sanqi's dormitory, smoking and worrying.
Lin Sanqi is really angry but dares not speak out. He himself does not smoke, and non-smokers hate the smell of cigarettes the most.
Now a bunch of old smokers are puffing away in his dormitory. Not only is the room filled with the smell of smoke, but even his clothes and cotton-padded jacket are filled with the smell of smoke. Unless he washes them, the strange smell will not go away.
The problem is that washing the quilt in the middle of winter is definitely a big project.
But Lin Sanqi didn't dare let everyone go to the office for the meeting. The temperature in Changping at night was still minus 10℃, and it was really unbearable without heating equipment.
Dean Shen was smoking a cigarette and blowing out smoke rings:
"Everyone, let's discuss this. How do we solve the wolf problem? We killed 13 wolves today, but I'm afraid the wolf king won't let this go. He'll definitely seek revenge later. Our employees can't live in fear every day, can they?"
Experienced old people know that wolves are the most cunning, intelligent and vengeful animals.
As long as you offend the wolves, these beasts will keep harassing you, maybe for one, two, five or six years.
So most hunters don't really like to hunt wolves. Firstly, they can't beat them, as wolves act in packs. Secondly, they fear retaliation. If they're not afraid, are your elderly and children afraid? Are your chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs afraid?
Vice President Ji also blew out smoke rings and asked:
"Is it possible to build a wall around our entire farm? If the wall is high, we won't have to worry about wolves suddenly breaking in in the middle of the night."
The other people in the room nodded slightly when they heard this.
Humans are social animals. Even in the Stone Age, when people gathered together, they would build fences to enclose their living areas to protect them from wild animals, believing that fences could bring a sense of security.
"We can't afford it!" Dean Shen shook his head.
"Our farm covers about 2,000 mu (approximately 1,000 acres). If we enclose all the farmland and mountainous areas, the wall would have to be at least 5 kilometers long. Just imagine how many bricks and cement would be needed. Even if we had the money, we wouldn't be able to get the building materials."
The best a Chinese medicine hospital can do is build a high wall to enclose the family quarters. It would be a huge undertaking to enclose the entire farm.
However, if the farm is not fenced off and the wolves are cunning, any employee left alone will be easily attacked by the wolves.
Yang Shaohua, the head of the General Affairs Section of the branch, asked cautiously at this time:
"Since neither the branch nor the farm are officially open yet, why don't we move somewhere else? If we can't provoke them, we can at least avoid them, right? The south of the capital is all plains, with no wild animals. Daxing or Tongzhou would be good. If that doesn't work, we can go as far away as possible. Baiyangdian would be fine."
Lin Sanqi thought that Section Chief Yang had a really good vision. He picked the future capital's sub-center, Daxing Airport, and Xiong'an New District at once. These were all pieces of Feng Shui treasure land.
Dean Shen still smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"Do you know why the Ming Tombs were chosen? It's because the good land near the capital is already taken, and everyone is short of food. Who would be willing to give up the prime fertile land?
Due to historical reasons, many areas of the Ming Tombs were forbidden from farming, so there were few villages, a small population, and a lot of wasteland, which is why we occupied such a piece of land. Even so, the soil is not the best, and the local farmers would not give us good land.
So forget about living near the capital. If you have to choose, choose the Northeast, or even the Northwest. There are fewer people and more land there. So, do you want to go there?"
Everyone in the room shook their heads. Transportation was inconvenient these days. If you went to the northeast or northwest, you would never be able to come back.
The two chiefs of the Security Department, Zhang Jingang and Shao Lecheng, were also present. Both of them were military veterans and were not conservative in their thinking.
Section Chief Zhang Jingang then suggested:
"It's impossible to prevent it. A thief can only steal for a thousand days, so why should we be on guard against thieves for a thousand days? Since the wolves have been so foolish as to provoke us, we should take the initiative to attack and eliminate the enemy."
Dean Shen's eyes lit up slightly: "Tell me, how do you take the initiative?"
"Everyone thinks this wolf pack has been around for a while, so they must be local. So the question is, why didn't the wolves attack the village, but instead attacked our farm?"
Lin Sanqi curled his lips: "Wolves also bully outsiders."
Dean Shen kicked him and said, “Get out of here and pour some water.”
In fact, no one knew about it. It was mainly because the rural people went to bed early at night, and the Chinese medicine hospital was brightly lit at night because it was the first day of moving, which attracted the wolves.
Section Chief Zhang continued at this time:
"So what I mean is that the farmers in the Ming Tombs must have a way to control the wolves, and even the hunters in the village know where the wolf's lair is.
Then we will gather all the hunters in the Ming Tombs area. Our Chinese Medicine Hospital also has over ten guns, so we can go into the mountains and hunt the wolves, killing as many as possible. Even if we can't kill them all, we must drive the wolves away from the Ming Tombs."
Dean Shen was also a military man, and he liked this kind of straightforward approach the most, so he slammed the table:
"That's a good idea. These damn wolves who dared to bite our people from the Chinese Medicine Hospital must be tired of living."
Vice President Ji then asked:
"It's a good idea, but the hunters may not necessarily listen to us. If we want them to fight for our lives, we must give them conditions they can't refuse."
Dean Shen looked at Lin Sanqi with a smile at this time:
"That depends on Comrade Lin Sanqi."
Lin Sanqi was a little confused, thinking, "Why should I care about letting hunters kill wolves? If I want to seduce you, I'll have to find some nurses."
Seeing Lin Sanqi's confused look, Dean Shen said with a chuckle:
"People are having a hard time right now, especially the farmers. Hunters are also farmers. Private hunting is not allowed, so they are extremely poor. If we can give them food, I'm afraid they will all rush to hunt wolves."
"Oh, that's right~~~"
Everyone nodded in surprise. They didn't even need to show up, there would naturally be people willing to risk their lives for them.
"So, our Chinese Medicine Hospital can issue a reward: 100 kilograms of corn flour for every wolf killed. This reward is valid for half a month. A big reward will surely attract brave men. I'm sure all the hunters in the surrounding area will rush to the mountains like crazy."
Lin Sanqi also gave a thumbs up:
"Dean, you're brilliant! This is just like the order issued by Ran Min to kill the Five Barbarians during the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China. As long as there's a bounty, wild wolves become popular hunters."
Yang Shaohua also flattered him: "Yes, this is a plan to wipe out the entire family, to wipe out the entire wolf pack."
Dean Shen felt elated when he heard his subordinates flatter him, then he pointed at Lin Sanqi and said:
"Xiao Qi, the task of making the corn noodles is now left to you."
Lin Sanqi was furious after hearing this. "Dean, I've seen people cheat others, but I've never seen anyone cheat as badly as you. Where are you going to get so much food?"
Everyone else was silent. One wolf is worth one hundred kilograms of corn flour. Wow.
Dean Shen was not in a hurry. He patted the dust off the corner of his pants and said casually:
"Yang Jinbo from the purchasing department has already left for Northeast China. This time, his mission is to purchase 200,000 yuan worth of wild ginseng. Oh my! How can our hospital use up all that much wild ginseng?"
This time, the Chinese Medicine Hospital took out almost all of its working capital and focused on purchasing wild ginseng, with the aim of exchanging it for food from Panax notoginseng.
It's not just this emergency that requires exchanging food for wolves.
In addition, it is only February now. Grain is usually planted in March and April and harvested in July and August. These months are the window period for grain.
Dean Shen couldn't get so much food, so he had to rely on Lin Sanqi for blood transfusion.
Therefore, the Chinese Medicine Hospital spent a huge sum of 200,000 yuan to purchase ginseng in order to exchange it with Lin Sanqi for enough food to feed so many employees and their families in the branch.
Dean Shen was taking a gamble. If the farm had a harvest, he could feed back to the main hospital, thus achieving a win-win situation.
If Lin Sanqi knew about Dean Shen's little trick, he would definitely hit him:
As for water, the north is suffering from a drought that will last for at least two or three years. Without water, we risk a complete crop failure. Not only will the branch staff starve to death, but the headquarters' finances will also be bankrupt.
When Lin Sanqi heard that wild ginseng cost 200,000 yuan, his heart beat faster.
The retail price of a hundred-year-old wild ginseng in the hospital is about 1,000 yuan per piece, but if you purchase it from the place of origin, it usually only costs 300 to 400 yuan.
By this calculation, 200,000 yuan can purchase hundreds or thousands of century-old wild ginseng.
If everyone used ginseng to exchange food with him, Lin Sanqi even felt that it was entirely possible for him to become the largest wild ginseng seller in the country by 2013.
Get rich~~~
