Chapter 160
Shen Que approached very slowly, a little nervously, so that breathing only through his nose was not enough for oxygen, so he had to open his mouth to breathe.
What he didn't expect was that after he approached, the person who was originally lying flat suddenly turned over towards him.
It was too sudden and he was caught off guard.
So much so that the thing he just wanted to smell suddenly came towards him and ran into his open lips.
That's so smooth.
Shen Que's pupils dilated instantly, and he backed away at the fastest speed in his life. He subconsciously wanted to spit, but a glance at Chen Zui who had turned over made him feel like waking him up at this time.
Hold it in.
He fled the room anxiously and cautiously like a thief.
As soon as someone leaves.
Chen's most muffled laughter was heard in the bedroom, and the straight man's mouth was also very hot.
Outside, Chen Que bared his teeth and said "Pfft, Pfft" with a painful expression. He just wanted to smell it! Although Chen Zui's thing was white and clean and could be considered beautiful, it was still a man's after all...
The thought of putting a man's penis in my mouth.
Chen Que: The sky—collapsed.
He went back as fast as he could and brushed his teeth as hard as he could.
While eating breakfast, Chen Zui noticed that Shen Que's attitude towards him was a little awkward, and he was grinning while eating.
Lao Lei asked him what happened, and he muttered quietly: "My teeth are bleeding."
Lao Lei heard this and said, "You must be suffering from internal heat. Let Doctor Chen prescribe some medicine for you."
Shen Que didn't look at Chen Zui and stuffed a whole boiled egg into his mouth: "No need."
Chen Zui just pretended not to hear.
Nothing happened on the river last night. Shen Que arranged for Xiao Xu to go to Xizhen to meet Liang Yingzhang to discuss the river. Xiao Xu went there early in the morning and returned just in time for dinner. As soon as he came back, he reported to Shen Que: "Boss, they said we'll meet at our junction at 11 o'clock."
Shen Que nodded: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, let's go eat."
Lao Lei: "Boss, how are you going to talk?"
Shen Que: "Exchange."
Lao Xu put down his bowl of porridge and smiled before he spoke: "Why don't we get some people over here, and bring those single young men and women over to our side."
He was just joking when he said this, and it doesn't sound reliable at first glance. The young labor force can create the next generation, and for the sake of long-term development, these are treasures more valuable than objects.
Lao Lei wiped his beard and said, "Don't talk nonsense so early in the morning. You are not as reliable as your Xiao Xu."
Old Xu chuckled twice.
Chen Zui, who was listening quietly, put down his chopsticks and said, "Brother Chen."
Before Shen Que looked at him, he took a deep breath to prepare himself. It seemed that the impact of eating chicken had a great impact on this straight man.
"What's wrong?"
“Brother Shen, I also want to go and see what the world is like when you guys are negotiating.”
This wasn't a big deal, and the place where they were negotiating wasn't far from the town, so Shen Que readily agreed: "Okay, I'll call you before I leave."
After finishing his meal, Chen Zui went to see Xiao Wu first. Xiao Wu looked in good spirits and kept thanking him.
Song Luo, who had been with him all night, was eating next to him.
Chen Zui: "Let's go back and rest after dinner."
Song Luo shook his head: "It's okay, I slept last night, I still want to stay here and learn skills from you, Brother Chen."
He didn't want to fall behind for a single day. He didn't want to fall behind. After all, he was the oldest among the four disciples and couldn't afford to lose.
This morning was not too busy, so Chen Zui took his four apprentices to identify the medicines on the medicine shelf and explain them to them.
Chen Zui: "Don't worry. Medicine is a complex subject. It's impossible to be proficient in everything, including the brain, bones, blood, and internal organs. You should first understand the basics, and then choose a subject that interests you and has a talent for in-depth research."
The four disciples nodded seriously.
At noon, Xiao Xu came over and called him, "Doctor Chen, let's go."
Chen Zui responded with a "yes", took off his white coat, and before leaving, he told his apprentices, "Take a break at noon. If someone comes, write down the symptoms. Don't prescribe any medicine until I come back."
"Okay, Brother Chen."
The young apprentices holding their notebooks said in unison, "How well behaved!"
Chen Zui really felt some of the joy of being a teacher.
At the junction of the two towns, tables, chairs and tents were set up.
This negotiation site is really simple and sloppy, especially against the backdrop of the cobblestone road and the rice fields next to it.
Aotian: [It seems like we are playing house.]
Liang Yingzhang and his team have arrived.
Xiao Xu was a smart man. In order to appear bossy, the first thing he did after getting off the car was to pull out the chair, hold his head high and glance sideways at Liang Yingzhang and the others.
Shen Que walked over.
He raised his hand and placed it on Chen Zui's shoulder behind him: "Sit down."
Suddenly Chen Zui became the focus.
Chen Zui looked embarrassed: "Brother Chen, you sit down, I'll just stand."
Chen Que's hand increased the strength and pushed him onto the chair: "Just sit down when I tell you to. Be obedient."
Xiao Xu rolled his eyes and said, "It's okay, Brother Chen, you sit down, the boss has a chair."
He ran behind Shen Que, then knelt on the ground and leaned forward, supporting himself with his hands.
It became a human chair.
The scene suddenly became quiet, everyone's expression was very interesting, even the summer breeze blowing by was a little awkward.
Clever, but a bit too clever.
Chen Que held his forehead.
Then he kicked Xiao Xu and said, "Go away."
Xiao Xu got up, brushed off the dust on his pants, and returned to his father with a bit of grievance. Old Xu quietly gave him a thumbs up.
"Well done, good son."
"Dad, how did I do that thing just now?"
"Well done, you're the smart one who thought of that."
"Then why doesn't the boss sit with me?"
"The boss is afraid that you can't help it."
The father and son were whispering to each other, and Lao Lei, who was standing next to them, almost stroked his beard off and arranged for someone to go back and get a chair.
Chen Que didn't care whether there was a chair or not. He stood there in a ruffian manner, smoking a cigarette and holding it in his mouth.
"I can share the fish with you. Bring me something in exchange."
Be straightforward and get straight to the point.
The person behind Liang Yingzhang's face changed, and it seemed that he had a lot to say.
Liang Yingzhang replied with only three words: "Why?"
His men all held their heads high and said, "Yes, why? The fish are not yours."
Aotian: [You used to protect the big guys in negotiations, and those were probably sales worth hundreds of millions.]
Chen Zui: [The environment is different. In this world, food is the most valuable thing.]
Chen Zui had indeed experienced many big scenes. It sounded funny that two groups of people were fighting for fish, but in this world, Chen Zui understood it.
With Liang Yingzhang's response, the atmosphere became tense.
Shen Quewei raised his head and puffed out a cigarette: "Why?"
He laughed.
His eyes swept over Liang Yingzhang and the people behind him one by one: "Just because your father fled here with his twenty or thirty people to escape the famine, we in Dongzhen left you a chance to survive."
"The first batch of crops you planted were the seeds we gave you from Dongzhen."
"Just think about how you survived your first winter here thanks to us, East Town."
"Do you want me to continue?"
"Do you still have the nerve to listen to me?"
His mother has done her utmost for Xizhen, because to her, every human life is precious. It is precisely because of his mother's heart and kindness that Dongzhen has been able to grow gradually, and more and more people are willing to join Dongzhen.
This is how Dongzhen became what it is today.
At that time, several of Liang Yingzhang's subordinates were moved and voluntarily came to their Dongzhen.
The sound was not loud, but it made the people in West Town blush more than a slap in the face.
In the past, Shen Que didn't like to talk about these things, so he had always used force to solve the problems with Xizhen over the years. But the longer he sat in this position, the more he understood what his mother said: fighting is the stupidest way to solve problems. I not only have to ensure everyone's food and clothing, but most importantly, everyone's health and life.
There is a boy named Xiaowu lying in the infirmary now. He is so young, but he will become a cripple in the future.
Shen had to change himself.
Liang Yingzhang's morale dropped. First of all, everything Shen Que said was true. Secondly, they agreed to come to the talk because they wanted to find a solution. They had enough of stealing fish and fighting every now and then.
Liang Yingzhang: "What do you want me to give you in exchange?"
Chen Que: "From now on, we'll split the fish in half, and the mountain will be divided into 80:20, and I'll split 80 and you'll split 20."
He pointed to the mountain that stood silently.
Liang Yingzhang lowered his brows and opened his mouth very loudly. Someone behind him became anxious.
Liang Yingzhang: "64, you get 6 and I get 4. I'll give you 10% as my money for buying fish."
Chen Que took another puff of his cigarette: "37, any lower, no need to talk about it, right -"
He asked earnestly, "Do you think the veteran doctors there will be able to handle the surge in cases? Have you trained your successors?"
He laughed.
That bright smile was actually a blatant threat. Chen Zui, who was sitting on a chair beside him with his long legs crossed like a big boss, was the basis for his threat.
Liang Yingzhang and his men also looked at Chen Zui.
I can't wait to snatch away a young and capable doctor.
If this negotiation fails, we will have to fight to the death and use all means possible. Whether it is the problem of doctors, the number of personnel or various supplies, the West Town will never be able to compare with the East Town.
Liang Yingzhang didn't think about it for too long. Chen Que had deliberately asked for a high price at the beginning, so now this was his bottom line.
It is absolutely impossible to lower it any further.
If they want to continue to develop well and steadily, the war between them must end.
Both groups had this intention, so the negotiations went smoothly.
Liang Yingzhang pointed at Chen Zui and said, "Okay, but he has to apologize to me. I definitely didn't run into him last time."
Shen Que frowned.
Everyone looked at Chen Zui again.
Chen Zui raised his eyes and looked at Liang Yingzhang with innocence and surprise. His eyes changed quickly, and after the surprise, there was grievance and forbearance.
He was about to stand up by supporting himself with the handle of the chair, but was held down by Chen Que.
Chen Zui turned sideways to him and said, "Brother Chen, I have to apologize for the cooperation between the two towns. It's okay. Since Mr. Liang said he didn't touch me, it was my own fault that I couldn't stand steadily."
"Isn't it just an apology..."
He forced a strong yet forced smile. "Mr. Liang is the leader of West Town. I'm just a small doctor. It's okay for me to apologize to him. The hard-earned peace between the two towns cannot be destroyed because of me. I will kneel down and kowtow to prevent anyone from getting hurt."
Liang Yingzhang: "You!"
Shen Que: "That's enough!"
Shen Que yelled back at Liang Yingzhang: "Even if you are the boss of West Town, you can't bully us people in East Town. There were so many eyes watching us that day. Besides, why would Chen Zui frame you? What's the point? What benefit did he get?"
Liang Yingzhang was so angry that his nostrils flared. He couldn't answer a single question. What was he trying to achieve? What benefit did he get? Liang Yingzhang couldn't figure it out.
Shen Que continued, "You just want to smear his image, to make us have a bad impression of Dr. Chen and create a rift. You've got your calculations wrong!"
Liang Yingzhang flicked his finger at Shen Que: "You..."
The deputy behind him pulled him and said, "Boss, business is more important."
If this continues, the talks will fail.
Liang Yingzhang took a deep breath. As the boss, he had to set an example and not ignore the interests of the people in the town because of a trivial personal matter.
The identity of the boss is both a power and a shackle.
Shen Que: "It's impossible to apologize. Do you agree to the conditions just now?"
Liang Yingzhang squeezed out a voice from between his teeth: "We'll divide the territory on the mountain at ten o'clock tomorrow!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, glaring at Chen Zui before leaving.
Chen Zui had already placed his other hand on Shen Que's, and said sympathetically: "Brother Shen, you don't have to do this for me. It's just an apology. Before I came to Dongzhen, I was bullied before. I am willing to do this for everyone."
Shen Que looked at this fool who only cared about others, and felt sorry for him: "No one can bully you here, not even you."
Lao Xu and the others also echoed: "Yes, if we don't apologize to him, why should we apologize to him?"
Chen Zui was so moved that his eyes turned red: "Thank you, you are so kind to me."
Finally, she looked deeply at Chen Que with her red eyes, her fair face tanned red by the midday sun: "Thank you, Brother Chen."
Shen Que said earnestly: "You, be nicer to yourself in the future."
Chen smiled shyly: "I know."
Shen Que was finally satisfied and waved his hand: "Let's go! Go home!"
When I turned my eyes away, I glanced at Chen Zui. In the sun, I felt that his face looked even better.
Chen Zui stood up and suddenly swayed unsteadily.
Chen Que, who was looking at him, quickly supported him and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen leaned weakly in his arms: "...Maybe I have a little heatstroke."
The author has something to say:
Chen Zui: Since we are going to serve tea, let’s carry it through to the end~ [Cai Gou]
