Thoughtful and thoughtful.

Lu Jingnian suddenly wanted to say, the little doctor is really better than the snail girl.

When the meat was put into his mouth, it was really tender and juicy, refreshing and not greasy, so he nodded sincerely: "It's delicious."

The hot pot restaurant is very small, and the shop owner at the checkout counter is watching the TV set on the counter. The two of them can't see it from the angle of sitting, but they can hear the voice of the female news anchor on the TV, and they are still talking The news of the change in the top management of the Ruiling Group was hotly discussed in the city.

"It is reported that as early as half a year ago, the former chairman and CEO of the group, Lu Jingnian, resigned and resigned from all positions in the group's board of directors due to a decision-making error and lost to competitors in major project bidding. All of his shares were pledged for a bank loan, and he bought a small pharmaceutical factory in his own name and planned to make a comeback, but the investment failed and he had to go overseas..."

Ou Zixi didn't listen deliberately, but the sound of the TV was very loud, and every word and sentence floated into his ears clearly. Seeing that the person on the other side who was eating happily stopped his hands for a moment when he heard this, I was a little curious for a moment: "What are you thinking?"

Lu Jingnian came back to his senses and shook his head: "It's fine."

Ou Zixi sent a piece of boiled tripe into his bowl: "Eat."

The hairy belly was crispy and tender, delicious and chewy, and Lu Jingnian's embarrassment just now gradually calmed down. As expected, eating delicious food is always happy, so he also sent a cooked fish ball to Ou Zixi's bowl Li smiled and said, "You eat too."

After lunch, he went back by car, and went back to the village on the tricycle at the station. After returning home, Ou Zixi went directly to the Wang Po's house next door. Lu Jingnian said he would go with him, but Ou Zixi did not agree, so he still insisted on following. I went but didn't enter the door, so I just stood guard outside.

All relatives of Mrs. Wang's family were there, and Hutou's body was wrapped in a mat and placed in the yard. After such a day and night in the summer, it had already started to stink. Lu Jingnian could smell it even standing at the gate of the yard, and couldn't help frowning.

As soon as Wang Po saw Ou Zixi coming in, she started crying, and the others didn't look good. Ou Zixi handed the rounded 3 yuan to Wang Daming, and said in a low voice, "Brother Daming, take this money with you!" Hurry up and bury the child first."

Wang Daming kept a sullen face and didn't answer or speak. Someone behind him kept giving him winks. Ou Zixi knew him. He was Hutou's cousin. Seeing that Wang Daming was indifferent, he simply stepped forward and took the money from Ou Zixi. The tone is still very bad: "Just tens of thousands of dollars can't pay for our baby's life. We will take the money. You can go, and don't come to our house in the future."

The others echoed one after another, accusing Ou Zixi of embarrassing him for saying something embarrassing. Lu Jingnian, who was watching at the door, finally couldn't see it. It’s not like just wrapping it in a straw mat and throwing it in the yard. It doesn’t matter if Dr. Ou doesn’t send money, are you planning to let the child stay here forever, or are you planning to put it in front of Dr. Ou’s house?”

When the cousin heard Lu Jingnian say that, he became angry, blushed and said, "What's your business?! Who are you? When will it be your turn to take care of our business?!"

"Doctor Ou has already paid you 3 yuan. You are still so aggressive. No one can see it. If you want me to say, you should call the police and let the police handle it. Even if you have to sue Doctor Ou, you will never lose. I don’t need to give you a penny, it’s you people who are not greedy enough to borrow your children to blackmail Doctor Ou…”

"Enough!" Ou Zixi interrupted him loudly, came up and dragged him away.

After leaving the yard, Lu Jingnian, who hurt his sprained foot because he was dragged too fast, almost sat on the ground, but Ou Zixi was very angry: "Why are you telling them that?"

Lu Jingnian was also angry: "I'm helping you, those people made it clear that they want to bully you and deliberately extort money, why do you bother with them?"

Ou Zixi frowned and said: "They are all from this village, all surnamed Wang, and I am the only one who is from outside. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Just pay for it, so why make it so ugly. "

"You really... They treat you like this just because of your calm personality."

"Forget it, forget it," Ou Zixi supported him, "Go back, and I'll check your feet for you."

Lu Jingnian had nothing to say for a while, but in the end, Ou Zixi supported him, and the two of them went home slowly.

☆、The medicine field was destroyed

Waking up early in the morning, Lu Jingnian pushed open the window and saw that it had finally cleared up yesterday and it was raining again today, so he couldn't help sighing, Ou Zixi opened the door and came in to bring him breakfast, Lu Jingnian asked him with a smile: " It’s raining again, so you won’t be able to go to the fields today, right?”

"Go," Ou Zixi said resolutely, "I haven't been there for two days. Sanqi will be dug out in a few days. I don't feel relieved if I don't go and see."

Lu Jingnian had nothing to do with him, and sighed: "Summer is like this, it rains when it rains..."

"It only rained in the middle of the night last night." Ou Zixi replied casually. He also slept until midnight last night when he heard the sound of thunder and woke up for a while before guessing that it was going to rain. When he woke up this morning, it was as expected.

"I'll go with you." Lu Jingnian finished the last mouthful of porridge in his hand and was about to stand up.

Ou Zixi frowned and said, "Yesterday your foot was hurt again..."

"It's okay." Lu Jingnian said indifferently, "I've slept a night and already feel much better."

He had never been to this kind of rural place before, and he was really curious about this kind of rural life in the wild, especially the young doctor was still growing traditional Chinese medicine, so he insisted that he would go and have a look with Ou Zixi, but Ou Zixi had nothing to do with him. , can only take him there.

When the two of them slowly moved to the back mountain at the speed of Lu Jingnian, they were both stunned. When they came back yesterday afternoon, more than half of the fields that were still in good condition had been turned upside down, and the herbs were also planted. It was so devastated that it fell to the ground, soaked in the rain, it was even more lifeless, and even more than half of the awning collapsed.

Ou Zixi came back to his senses, and immediately rushed into the field, seeing that most of the herbs that were still alive yesterday had been destroyed today, he was so distressed that he squatted on the ground, his eyes were red immediately.

Lu Jingnian walked over slowly, put his hand on his shoulder, comforted him silently, turned his eyes to look around, the soil on the ground didn't look like it was washed by wind and rain, on the contrary, there was something The traces made by man-made, the rain is not too heavy and there is no wind, it is unreasonable that the shed will be blown down, and even the soil inside will be turned out. Thinking of this, Lu Jingnian's eyes turned cold A few minutes later, he asked Ou Zixi, "Have you offended anyone else in the village?"

Ou Zixi shook his head wildly: "No, I have never quarreled with or offended anyone."

"But the situation here seems to have been deliberately vented." Lu Jingnian twitched the corner of his mouth as he spoke, "Who said there is no such thing as Wang Po's family..."

"I've already lost money to them." Ou Zixi said a little aggrieved.

Lu Jingnian suddenly felt guilty. Could it be that they deliberately took revenge on this little doctor because he quarreled with them yesterday?This is too deceptive...

Thinking of this, Lu Jingnian pulled Ou Zixi up: "Let's go."

Ou Zixi was still in a sad mood and couldn't recover: "Where are you going?"

"Go to the village chief to discuss who did this, always check it out and ask them for an explanation."

So it was the same as the previous two days, a group of people gathered at the village chief's house, and almost everyone in the village came when they heard about the incident. The village chief took two young men to Ou Zixi's medicine field to see and came back. , explained the situation with the three old men who could make decisions: "More than half of it was destroyed, and it really looks like it was destroyed intentionally."

Ou Zixi stood with his head down all the time, not knowing what he was thinking but did not speak. Lu Jingnian asked the village chief for him: "Since it is confirmed that it was intentionally sabotaged, and it happened in the middle of last night, then what should we do?" It wasn't done by outsiders, shouldn't we find out who deliberately targeted Dr. Ou? Now that most of Dr. Ou's medicine fields have been destroyed, you guys have to give an explanation, right?"

Before the village chief could speak, someone shouted: "Where did you come from? Why do you keep meddling in our village? I think it might be you, an outsider, who made the medicine field like that!"

Lu Jingnian glanced over and saw that it was Hutou's cousin, so it was a little funny, this is a typical villain who first complains and beats him up, right?

"I am a friend of Dr. Ou, and Dr. Ou is not from your village, so this matter is not entirely a matter of your village. I will take care of it to the end. If you don't give an explanation, this matter will never end. "

That person must have had such a tough tone, and started cursing again, but Lu Jingnian was not afraid to challenge this kind of hooligan: "When I asked the village chief to investigate, no one else said anything, but you yelled, you are a guilty conscience. ?”

"Fart your bitch! I haven't done it before, so you shouldn't wrong me!" The angry man began to swear.

"That's enough," said the old man who Ou Zixi called the third uncle who helped him out of the siege last time, and interrupted the uncle's words in displeasure, and said to the village chief: "This matter must be clarified, who is it?" made……"

Lu Jingnian immediately answered: "Then check one by one. If you want to turn over Dr. Ou's land and destroy the herbs, you can't just use your hands. As long as you use a hoe, there will always be some herbs and the like."

As soon as he said that he wanted to conduct a door-to-door investigation, the onlookers became unhappy and complained: "It has nothing to do with us, is this treating us all as thieves?"

"That's right! It has nothing to do with us! Why do you have to check every family!" Uncle took the opportunity to yell.

The village head was also in a dilemma. He looked at Ou Zixi, then at Lu Jingnian, thought about it, and finally asked them tentatively: "Have you found anyone who is more suspicious?"

Ou Zixi was still silent, Lu Jingnian pouted at the cousin: "He was the first to call out, let's start with him."

The cousin's face turned green when he heard it, and he firmly disagreed: "I never did it! Why do you go to my house to check!"

"I haven't done it before, what are you afraid of being checked?" Lu Jingnian choked back rudely.

The village head hesitated and asked those old men: "This matter..."

The third uncle asked Ou Zixi who had been silent all this time: "Xiao Ou, tell me, do you want to investigate this matter?"

Ou Zixi, who kept his eyes down all the time, looked up at Lu Jingnian. Lu Jingnian was afraid that he would say that the matter should be settled again, and was about to grab the white, but he nodded.

This surprised Lu Jingnian, so the third uncle said: "Okay, let's check one by one. If we haven't done anything, what are we afraid of? We have to pay Dr. Ou justice."

He is the oldest of the three, he opened his mouth, the other two didn't have much to say, so they agreed, so the village chief nodded, and the uncle couldn't help clamoring again, and brought a few people with him I went to his house first.

And his family is actually Wang Po's family.

Uncle Wang is the son of Wang Po's brother, Wang Daming's cousin, and Wang Daming's age. His parents died early and lived in Wang Po's house. His biggest hobby is gambling. The ghost almost slept on the mahjong table together, and the whole gang was a hooligan.

The village chief took people there, and Wang Po started howling again, saying that her grandson had just died, and the people in the village were helping outsiders to bully them. She, an old woman, couldn't survive anymore, so she was eventually forced out of the village. In the backyard, a hoe stained with herbs from Ou Zixi's medicinal field was found.

Ou Zixi is the only one in the whole village who grows medicine, and this family can't do it if they want to. As for the revenge on Ou Zixi, it is true that even though Ou Zixi lost 3 yuan, they still treat Ou Zixi without the root of the family. The hatred was great, and the second reason was that Lu Jingnian's attitude of speaking yesterday added fuel to the fire.

Of course, family ugliness should not be publicized. Although according to Lu Jingnian, this matter should be reported to the police, but the village chief obviously wanted them to settle it peacefully, so he asked Ou Zixi, "How do you want to solve this matter?"

Ou Zixi pursed his lips, and looked at Lu Jingnian without saying a word. Lu Jingnian suddenly understood that the reason why this little doctor kept silent was that he had to explain it for him, right?After all, he really didn't want to offend people in this village, but he, an outsider, was different.

So he was not polite, and said directly to the village chief: "As agreed before, Dr. Ou is responsible for the burial of the tiger's head. It is said that 5000 yuan is enough and there are more. Doctor Ou kindly compensated them 3 yuan." Yuan, it turned out that this family turned around to treat Dr. Ou like this. Don’t say anything about apologizing now. Dr. Ou is not uncommon, but if the field is destroyed, you have to pay for it. The 3 yuan for the burial of the head, and the remaining 5000 yuan will be paid to Ou Zixi, if they agree and promise not to do such things against Dr. Ou in the future, then forget it."

Although Lu Jingnian felt that this was still cheap for the best of the family, but Ou Zixi obviously didn't want to make things worse, so it was almost the same, at least it would save some money.

When Wang Po heard that the money she just put into her purse was going to be paid out, she started howling again. Uncle Wang jumped up and down and cursed. Pay it to Dr. Ou."

Aunt Wang hesitated for a moment, and finally went into the house to get the money and come out.

Lu Jingnian helped Ou Zixi collect the money, and then asked the village chief: "Can they guarantee that the same thing will not happen again in the future? If there is a next time, it can be solved by paying such a small amount of money."

The village head was also very embarrassed: "I promise for them, there will never be a next time."

Just accept it when it's good, ignore the family who is still crying and grabbing the land, send the village head and the crowd away, Lu Jingnian follows Ou Zixi back, and pulls the courtyard door hard, so as not to prevent the next door from coming again Probe into the brain.

☆, the price of Panax notoginseng

After returning, Ou Zixi took a rake stick and carried a basket on his back and was about to go out again. Lu Jingnian hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going?"

"Collect Sanqi first, and take back as much as you can."

Ou Zixi's eyes were clouded, obviously he was very sad that the medicine field was destroyed, Lu Jing sighed young: "I'll go with you."

The rain has stopped, but the medicine fields are in a mess. There are more than [-] acres of land in the back mountain that belong to Ou Zixi, and half of them are filled with Panax notoginseng. Known as the king of ginseng, it has high medicinal value and high market price, but it is difficult to grow. It takes three years from sowing to harvesting. Originally, it could be dug up at the end of this month and sold for a good price, but now it is It was mostly ruined by the family next door.

Lu Jingnian followed Ou Zixi and watched him turn over the seven-acre field. Nearly four acres were destroyed, of which three acres were severely damaged. Ou Zixi squatted down and dug a piece that was almost broken. The two halves of the roots came out, and I handed them to Lu Jingnian, who said helplessly, "When digging the roots, you have to dig up the fibrous roots from the side to avoid breaking the roots. If the root is damaged, it can't be used."

Lu Jingnian took it and took a closer look. In fact, he knew about Panax notoginseng. His grandparents first made their fortunes by selling Chinese medicine. Although the group gradually developed and diversified, the proportion of Chinese medicine profits became smaller and smaller. I have been thinking about it all the time, so after resigning from the group's board of directors, I will bet all the shares and loans to buy the pharmaceutical factory and plan to make a comeback, but I was betrayed by the most trusted person... Forget it, let's not mention it.

Therefore, Lu Jingnian, who is considered to be a relatively lucrative traditional Chinese medicine, went to learn about it, and the one that Ou Zixi handed him was twenty-headed Sanqi, which was of excellent quality, which was a pity for a while.

Ou Zixi looked at a few more places, and finally came to a conclusion: "The three acres of land can't be sold. You can only keep it for grinding into panax notoginseng powder, and the remaining acres can be saved to save the safflower seeds. We will dig again in winter, but fortunately there are still three acres of land that are intact."

Otherwise, he doesn't know when he will be able to pay back the money he owes.

Originally, Ou Zixi planned to wait until the end of the month to dig, but now that something like this happened, he didn't want to wait any longer, and just collected it as soon as possible, so he started to dig in order, starting from one end of the field, digging and picking Lu Jingnian reminded him: "Are you going to dig all these up alone? When will it take to dig? Why don't you invite a few people."

Ou Zixi was a little puzzled: "Why do we need to invite people? There are not many people."

In his opinion, it is only a few acres of land, and if you move quickly, you can dig it all in half a month. It is enough to do it yourself. He doesn't have the money to hire someone, and he doesn't feel relieved to use someone else's hands.

Seeing that he really planned to do it himself, Lu Jingnian stood there for a while, then felt a little embarrassed, since he lived and ate for nothing at his house, it seemed that he should help him, so he also squatted down and took a Nailing, following his example, rolled up his sleeves and dug.

It was the first time for the young master to do such a rough job, but he looked decent, but Ou Zixi was not at ease with him: "Can you dig? Don't hurt the roots, or it will be useless..."

"know."

"You'd better go back and rest, you can't keep squatting like this since your feet haven't healed yet."

"It's okay." Lu Jingnian smiled at him, "If I feel unwell, I don't need you to chase me away, and I will go back."

Since he said so, Ou Zixi just let him go, turned around and concentrated on the work in hand.

Lu Jingnian wiped off his sweat, thought for a while, then turned his head and asked Ou Zixi who was not far behind: "I've always wanted to ask you, how could this village accept you when it's so exclusive, you bought your ten acres of land ?"

"My grandma's."

Ou Zixi mentioned this yesterday, his grandma was from this village and married from here, that's why his father brought him back here to plant medicine fields, that's why.

"Your grandma is still a landlord?"

Ou Zixi glanced at him: "The contracted one can be used for 30 years."

"...I was joking with you." Lu Jingnian couldn't help but laugh. Is it too serious or too cute for the little doctor to explain so seriously?

Half an hour later, when the number of well-digged Panax notoginseng in the basket gradually increased, a figure suddenly appeared beside the field, and it was only after they approached that they could clearly see that it was the village head.

"I didn't find anyone when I went to your house, so I guessed that you were here."

Ou Zixi stood up and nodded: "I plan to dig up Sanqi in the next two days."

The village chief looked around, frowned and asked him, "How much more can we keep? Do you want me to call some people to help you?"

"Half, no need, they don't have any experience in digging, so don't bother." Ou Zixi calmly rejected the village chief's proposal.

"Only half?" The village head frowned even more when he heard this: "Yesterday, the people from the pharmaceutical factory called to ask when they could deliver the goods, and they agreed to deliver at least [-] kilograms. Now Only half..."

"That's the only way," Ou Zixi said, "The three mu of land was destroyed, and the three or seven roots that were dug out were all broken and unusable. Didn't they have not signed the contract yet?"

"Forget it, let me talk to them again, anyway, their people will come at the end of the month, you dig out all the things as soon as possible these days, pack them up, of course, the more the better, but I told you before In the past, if there were 5 kilograms, I could earn 2 yuan, but now it is only half of it, and I estimate that I can only earn more than [-] yuan."

Ou Zixi nodded: "Yes, please negotiate with them."

After the village chief left, Lu Jingnian, who had never spoken a word, suddenly asked Ou Zixi, "When the pharmaceutical factory in the city comes to collect medicines, do you contact the village chief?"

"Well, I don't understand those things, and I don't have anything to say when I see them. The village chief handles it on my behalf. I just hand over the medicine to him."

"Is it like this when your father was still around?"

Ou Zixi shook his head: "He doesn't sell medicine."

His father was really noble, he didn't want his precious herbs to smell of copper at all, he used to live off the meager inheritance left by his grandma, but later he got seriously ill at a young age, and had to drink traditional Chinese medicine for a few years, After all, he died, and his grandma’s inheritance was all spent. At that time, he didn’t even have the money to bury his father, so he went to the city to ask his uncle to borrow the money. Fortunately, there are still 20 or [-] years left on the twelve acres of land. The right to use, or Ou Zixi should go to drink Northwest Wind, and then the village chief came to him and told him about the cooperation with the pharmaceutical factory. Although Ou Zixi is not good at communicating with people, he is still willing to bow his head in the face of reality , so he readily accepted his proposal, and asked the village head to deal with the pharmaceutical factory and sign the contract on his behalf. He only needs to send the medicine to the village head every time, and the village head will personally send the money home afterwards.

Lu Jingnian frowned when he heard this: "He told you that this thousand kilograms of Panax notoginseng can only be sold for 5 yuan?"

"Yes, the village chief said that the Panax notoginseng in my field is good. Most of them are less than [-] heads, and there are ten heads of top quality. Otherwise, they can't be sold at this price."

"But how do I remember that the price of notoginseng has continued to rise in the past few years, and the market price of twenty-headed notoginseng can be sold at 1000 yuan per kilogram. Even if it is the purchase price of a pharmaceutical factory, it must be 150 yuan, you One mu of land produces 10 kilograms of medicine, and most of them are 70 heads down. The medicine of one mu of land can be sold for at least 5 yuan. Originally, if seven acres of land can be produced, [-] yuan is not lost. He actually told you that it was only [-] yuan?"

The expression on Ou Zixi's face finally changed a little: "Is what you said true?"

Lu Jingnian suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Little doctor, you are a medicine grower, have you never bought medicine? You don't even know the market price of the most basic medicinal herbs?"

"...No." He really hasn't bought it yet. He didn't take care of it with his father in the past. Now he either grows it himself, or if he can't grow it, he directly tells the village chief to get it from the pharmaceutical factory and then from the money sold for the medicine. No, he didn't want much anyway.

Lu Jingnian was completely speechless, until the two of them went back to eat at noon, Ou Zixi kept looking sullen. After thinking about it, Lu Jingnian felt that this was strange, so he asked Ou Zixi, "You asked him to sell other medicinal materials for you, but you didn't sign the contract?" Was it under contract? Have you seen it?"

"Yes, he copied all the contracts for me."

"You show me."

Ou Zixi quickly took the contract and handed it to Lu Jingnian. Lu Jingnian read it carefully. Previously, Ou Zixi sold Danshen, Baizhi and Banlangen, which were relatively easy to plant and could be produced in a year, but the prices were very low. The annual output value of five acres of land is only [-]. Although Lu Jingnian doesn't know the specific price of these medicinal materials, he instinctively feels that it is too low.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​planting notoginseng?"

Ou Zixi said: "It was also suggested by the village chief. Although Panax notoginseng is difficult to grow and has a long growth cycle, the price is high. The yield of one mu of land can be sold for nearly [-]..."

Speaking of this, Ou Zixi couldn't help biting his lip. If it was true what Lu Jingnian said, the actual value of an acre of land was as high as more than [-] yuan, the village chief had indeed lied to him.

Lu Jingnian looked at the contract again. One side signed the contract with the official seal of the pharmaceutical factory, and the other was Ou Zixi's name and his fingerprints. Lu Jingnian asked him again: "Have you never seen anyone from the pharmaceutical factory?"

"No, every time the contract is drawn up, the village chief brings it to me to sign and then takes it away, and then sends a copy of the pharmaceutical factory's seal."

Taijing Pharmaceutical Factory, Lu Jingnian had never heard of it anyway, maybe it was a small factory, or else he wouldn't accept medicines from retail investors like Ou Zixi, so he thought about it and said: "This matter has to be done." Check it out, we can't let the village head just lie like this."

☆, 10. Emerald miscellaneous sauce noodles

Lu Jingnian was still studying the contract, and Ou Zixi went to cook. His principle was that for big things, you have to fill your stomach first, and you have to eat well after you are full.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ou Zixi brought the food in on a plate and put it on the table.

"Today is so fast." As Lu Jingnian said, he got up and moved to the table. There was a large bowl of noodles with mixed sauce and two dishes of cold dishes for each person.

In the crystal clear white porcelain bowl are light green ramen noodles of moderate thickness and even thickness, sprinkled with red, green and white diced carrots, diced cucumbers and diced yams, all of which are fresh and delicate. Not long after it was put away, only the cooked ingredients were boiled in well water, and a thick layer of miscellaneous sauce was spread in the middle. Lu Jingnian stretched out his chopsticks and picked the meat. Dried fragrant, potatoes and Pleurotus eryngii mushrooms, the sauce is full of fragrance, and half of the shelled and cut egg white is as fine as porcelain, and the yolk is tender and soft boiled egg as decoration.

"Jade Mixed Sauce Noodles?"

Ou Zixi nodded.

Lu Jingnian moved his index finger, and after thanking Ou Zixi, he mixed the noodles and tasted it first. The spinach pulp and the noodles were emerald green, very firm and chewy, and there was a faint spinach fragrance. It doesn't overpower the taste, the lean meat is crispy and soft, the fatty meat tastes like tofu but not greasy, the sauce is delicious and moderately salty, fully penetrated into the sauce, and the mouth has an endless aftertaste.

It's really... so delicious.

There are two cold dishes, one is shredded radish mixed with jellyfish skin, and the other is enoki mushroom mixed with cucumber. Both are delicious side dishes for appetizing and refreshing.

The combination of shredded radish and jellyfish skin is extremely crispy, without too much seasoning, and the aroma of scallion oil and vinegar is enough to tease the taste buds.

Flammulina velutipes are very chewy, served with shredded cucumber and mixed with a little sesame oil, it is also refreshing and flavorful.

After Lu Jingnian finished his food in twos and twos, Ou Zixi glanced at him and asked, "Are you full? Do you want more?"

"and also?"

"...I'll do it for you again."

"Forget it then," Lu Jingnian said, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he didn't bother others: "No need."

"If you don't mind, I can't finish this bowl, so I can share some with you."

Lu Jingnian's bowl of noodles had already bottomed out, and most of the cold dishes had entered his stomach, but Ou Zixi's had just started. Lu Jingnian thought that there was no reason for the little doctor to accommodate himself when he was hungry. I can't finish it, but the young master who used to be a bit of a cleanliness obsessive, ordered everything to the end and didn't go greedy for other people's bowls, but since he was picked up by Ou Zixi, he seems to have forgotten all his worries and self-cultivation. He nodded politely.

Ou Zixi took his bowl and divided half of the noodles in his own bowl. Lu Jingnian watched his movements eagerly and asked curiously, "Did you buy these noodles or did you make them yourself?"

"I made it myself," Ou Zixi said, "I got up at six o'clock in the morning, cleaned up, made breakfast, and made the noodles."

Lu Jingnian smiled awkwardly. At six o'clock, I was still dreaming at that time. This little doctor really had a pair of skillful hands. In this way, he was more like an empty-headed melon seed who actually knew nothing. Worm.

After eating, Lu Jingnian picked up the so-called contract that Ou Zixi had signed with the pharmaceutical factory, shook it, and asked Ou Zixi, "Should we find out about this matter?"

He was afraid that Ou Zixi would say that it would be better to calm down.

Ou Zixi nodded: "Do you have a solution?"

He is not the type to be bullied by others. The thing about the tiger head before was because he didn't want to make a big mess. After all, he did have faults and felt guilty. However, the Wang Po's family deliberately destroyed his field is not something he can bear, so In the morning when Lu Jingnian asked them to get the money back, he didn't say much but acquiesced to his approach.

If it was true as Lu Jingnian said, the village chief really cheated him of his money, even if he didn't get back the money from the past and didn't pursue it, he wouldn't continue to be tricked by him.

"It's not difficult to find out," Lu Jingnian said with some regret: "If I had known that there were so many panax notoginseng in your field, I shouldn't have told them to just ask them to return the [-] yuan." of."

The value of the three acres of land is 10,000+!

I just asked them if they wanted to come back for only [-] yuan, or if it was stolen from Ou Zixi before, no matter how I thought about it, I was at a loss.

Ou Zixi curled his lips, "Their family doesn't have money either."

It should be said that they are poor and white. If they really want to pay 30 yuan, it is estimated that they will not be able to get it out if they are killed.

Lu Jingnian smiled: "It's no wonder the village chief's face is so ugly when the fields are ruined, the ruined money is the money he was planning to swallow in his pocket."

Ou Zixi pursed his lips, but did not answer.

"In the future, I will help you take care of the cooperation with the pharmaceutical factory, and those people will not be able to deceive you. We will plant the twelve acres of land with Panax notoginseng, and we can contract more land to expand the scale. You will have money in the future." It's..."

Lu Jingnian was talking endlessly, seeing Ou Zixi frowning and looking at him, he was stunned for a moment, then stopped: "What's wrong?"

"You won't lie to me?"

"..."

Speaking of which, I have only known him for a week, and he has been in this village for five years. No matter how you say it, it seems that he is more familiar and reliable with the people in the village.

But judging from the actions of the Wang Po's family next door and the village chief, Lu Jingnian felt that most of the people in this village were unreliable. The little doctor is so simple, he may be sold by them someday and he has to count the money for them .

But then again, he himself was ignorant of people before, and now he has come to this end. In fact, it seems that he has no right to say anything about Ou Zixi.

"The land that has been planted with Panax notoginseng before can not be replanted continuously. If it is not viable, it will take at least five years to replant it." Ou Zixi changed the topic.

"Then plant the remaining five acres of land first, and then we will contract a few more lands when the money is in hand."

Lu Jingnian said "we" every word, and did not regard himself as an outsider at all.

Ou Zixi frowned again, but didn't say much.

After resting for half an hour, Ou Zixi said he was going to the fields again, but Lu Jingnian stopped him: "Didn't you say that the small shop at the entrance of the village has a phone? Let's call the pharmaceutical factory together and find out what's going on."

Ou Zixi only hesitated for a moment, then led him there.

The canteen was very small, selling some groceries, and there was no one there, but there was the sound of mahjong being rubbed inside. Ou Zixi went in and said something to someone, then came out again and nodded to Lu Jingnian.

The contract didn't specify the phone number, but it didn't prevent them from checking it.

Lu Jingnian directly dialed 114, asked the customer service for the phone number of Taijing Pharmaceutical Factory, and called after thanking him.

This pharmaceutical factory really exists. Lu Jingnian directly explained his purpose of coming, reported the address in the village, said that he was a pharmaceutical farmer here, and then told them that he had some doubts about the contract he signed before, can he go to them and have a face-to-face discussion? .

The other party warmly welcomed Lu Jingnian, and after making an appointment, he blinked at Ou Zixi and hung up the phone.

Ou Zixi was a little unhappy: "Why did you make an appointment with them this afternoon? It's already noon now, and I have to collect the medicine..."

"It doesn't matter if you harvest a day or two late," Lu Jingnian said disapprovingly, "You have to strike while the iron is hot. Don't worry, if something like today happened, the village chief would find someone to watch over your medicine field if we weren't here. How can he make money from you, I think he loves those ruined Sanchi more than you do."

"...Then don't make an appointment today, it will be dark when you go back now."

"A night in the city is fine too."

Lu Jingnian smiled and suggested that Ou Zixi had no other choice, what else could he say after making an appointment with someone, so he went home to ride the tricycle to pick up Lu Jingnian, planning to go to the city for the second time in two days.

Lu Jingnian was waiting for him at the entrance of the canteen. A woman from the village came to buy things. Seeing him standing here alone, she asked him curiously, "Are you a relative of Dr. Ou?"

"Ah...his cousin,
