Chapter 1320: Vomiting Blood
Yu Zhiming returned to his home in Junshan Mansion and found that Aunt Qiu was not there. It was Zhou Mo's aunt who was preparing dinner.
Zhou Mo's aunt does not live at home, but comes every day to take care of the Zhou family's lunch and dinner, as well as cleaning work.
Yu Zhiming found out after asking Qing Ning.
Zhou Hao felt embarrassed to eat and live for free, so he thought of taking care of the food and drinks during this period. Aunt Qiu hadn't rested for a long time, so she took the opportunity to take a few days off and reunite with her family...
More than ten minutes later, Zhou Mo, who was having dinner, received a phone call. The content of the call opened the eyes of several people at the table.
The person who spoke to Zhou Mo on the phone was the receptionist at the hospital's emergency department. She told Zhou Mo on the phone.
After her father finally confirmed that the Braille letter was fake, he was so angry that he vomited blood.
The famous scenes of people vomiting blood out of anger that often appear in movies and TV shows also exist in real life.
Of course, a healthy person usually does not vomit blood when angry.
This type of vomiting blood often occurs in people with a history of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, pulmonary hypertension, etc.
Under strong emotional stimulation, the pressure on the digestive or circulatory system may increase suddenly, resulting in increased bleeding or blood vessel rupture at the bleeding site, thereby causing symptoms of vomiting blood.
In addition, diseases such as acute gastritis and peptic ulcer may also cause local bleeding and vomiting of blood due to excessive emotional excitement.
The reason why the receptionist's father was so angry that he vomited blood was that he thought he had found a bargain by spending 1,600 yuan to buy a Braille treasure letter from the 1920s and 1930s.
What's more, he followed the clues in the Braille letter and actually went to a small county town in northern Jiangsu, and then spent millions of dollars to buy a shabby little courtyard.
Then, he dug three feet underground in the name of renovation.
But the so-called treasure has not been found. The receptionist father was really unwilling to give up, so he thought of asking Yu Zhiming for help to find the exact location of the treasure.
Unexpectedly, Yu Zhiming pointed out that the Braille letter was forged.
Over the past year, the registrar's father has invested a vast amount of money, time, and energy, tirelessly solving one mystery after another. Just when success was in sight, he suddenly discovered that it was all a scam set up by a con man...
Yu Zhiming could imagine how angry that guy must be. It was not surprising at all that he vomited blood out of anger.
Qing Ning couldn't help but sigh, "After all the effort to set up this scheme, in the end, it's just to sell a small yard for a million. I always feel that the effort and reward are disproportionate."
Yu Zhiming glanced at Qing Ning and said, "You are a lady from a wealthy family. You don't care about a mere million, but many people can't make a million in their entire lives."
Zhou Hao also added: "There's no way this situation is the only one like this. If we sell a few more houses using this method, it would bring in millions."
Zhou Mo suddenly sighed, "House transactions are all done under real names. The original owner is a liar and can't get away with it."
Qing Ning regained her composure and analyzed, "In this case, I think it's difficult to convict him. The original owner was definitely unwilling to sell the courtyard in the first place."
"It was you who, out of unspeakable selfishness, kept raising the price and using every possible means to get the original landlord to sell the courtyard to you."
"And then..."
Qing Ning added, "As for that fake Braille letter, in the industry, this kind of transaction is a buy-and-leave-it situation. If you buy a fake, you're screwed. You're unlucky. There's no point in calling the police."
After a pause, Qing Ning said slowly, "If this happens many times and all the victims report it to the police, maybe it will be considered a scam and the real person behind it can be hunted down."
Zhou Mo chuckled, "If the price of the courtyard wasn't too far off the market price, it might not be considered a scam. They could argue that this is a novel marketing tactic."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Indeed, after all, the victim's motive for buying the courtyard in the first place was not pure."
"If he really found the treasure, would he give half to the original landlord?"
Zhou Hao sighed, "In the final analysis, it's greed that's at work. If I hadn't been greedy for the supposedly hidden treasure in the Braille letter, I wouldn't have been deceived."
Zhou Mo hummed, and then analyzed, "The person who set up this scheme really understands people's hearts. Someone who spent thousands of dollars to buy a Braille letter would definitely be curious about the translation content."
"I was looking for an ordinary Braille letter, but when I translated it to the end, I was surprised to find that there were valuable calligraphy, paintings and books buried there. Naturally, I was very excited."
"What's even more outrageous is that they deliberately prevented people from discovering the exact address, so we can only roughly locate it in the courtyard."
Zhou Mo said with a click of his tongue: "This scammer is quite capable. I think he's no less capable than the guy who set up the fake bezoar scam before."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Compared to the low-IQ telecom scams that cast a wide net, this kind of high-level scam is quite rare."
He took a sip of the seafood soup, and Zhou Mo's voice rang in his ears again, "Hey, Doctor Yu, regarding what the other party mentioned on the phone, I would like you to check her father's health?"
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said, "This vomiting of blood is an emergency. The underlying medical conditions that can cause vomiting of blood are not difficult or complicated. A detailed examination at the hospital will be sufficient."
Zhou Mo said, "I know how to reply..."
After dinner, Yu Zhiming played the erhu for everyone while digesting his food.
The charity gala is getting closer and closer, and all parties are stepping up their preparations, except Yu Zhiming who is still taking his time.
The main thing is that no one urged him, and no one made any demands on him. It all depended on his own initiative...
Around nine o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming received a call from Ding Ye, who was studying in Germany.
"Good evening, teacher."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes and said, "Let's get to the point. No need for pleasantries. International long-distance calls are not cheap, so I'll save you some money."
"Teacher, you are so considerate."
Ding Ye flattered him and then said, "I've been studying and exchanging ideas at Charité Hospital these days."
"I have to tell you, Professor, that Dr. Adenauer is very enthusiastic and serious. He made very thoughtful arrangements for my exchange and study. I really learned a lot."
Yu Zhiming groaned and said, "I see. I'll return the favor and take better care of his niece."
The next moment, Yu Zhiming heard Ding Ye's exaggerated voice coming from the phone, "Teacher, thank you, you are the best and most wonderful teacher in the world."
Yu Zhiming smiled, then said with disdain, "Don't talk about these fancy and useless things. Is there anything else?"
"Of course."
Ding Ye smiled again and said, "Teacher, aren't you looking for the director of the teaching hospital in your hometown?"
"I have a candidate here."
Ding Ye introduced him, saying, "He is a Chinese American who once served as the director of a teaching hospital in the United States and is now a visiting scholar at Charité Hospital..."
