[Rebirth] Medical Family
Work related
Also surnamed Ou. "Lu Jingnian was talking nonsense.
"What's wrong with your feet?"
"I fell and twisted while walking. It's not a big deal. It will be fine in half a month."
The man smiled and said: "Young man looks very energetic, have you married a wife?"
The greatest joy of the Seventh and Eighth Aunts is to find out if other people are married. If not, even if they are not suitable, they have to be matched. Lu Jingnian twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and replied patiently: "Not yet, but there is an appointment." Excuse me."
Then his fiancée betrayed him and ran away with someone, which Lu Jingnian didn't say.
"Oh, it's the same as Doctor Ou, and it's time to get engaged. The young man looks like he's in his twenties, right?"
Lu Jingnian was a little surprised when he heard that: "Doctor Ou is also engaged?"
The other party was also very surprised: "You are his cousin, don't you know?"
"...We haven't seen each other for many years, and we just got in touch recently."
"That's why I don't know, he didn't tell you? His wife is the granddaughter of the third uncle's family. Xiaoqing went to work in other provinces and will be back next month for the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"..."
When Ou Zixi arrived on a tricycle, he saw that Lu Jingnian was chatting with someone. The other party called him "Da Ou" to make him affectionate. Ou Zixi looked at him suspiciously. The cousin came and wanted to leave, so he climbed into the car and went, the woman asked Ou Zixi with a smile: "Both brothers are going to the city again today?"
Ou Zixi nodded: "Go shopping."
After riding out of the village on his bicycle, Ou Zixi, who hadn't spoken any more, asked slowly, "Since when did you become my cousin?"
"I said it's your cousin who can stay here more legitimately, and it's not easy for them to drive me away..." Lu Jingnian took it for granted.
☆、Sign a new contract
Departing at noon, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in the provincial capital. Since moving back to the village, Ou Zixi used to rarely go to the city once a season in the past few years, but this time he came to the city for two consecutive days. It's all because there are too many troubles that have been caused recently.
Before going to the pharmaceutical factory, Lu Jingnian took him to a mobile phone store and picked out a simple and easy-to-operate smartphone for him. Ou Zixi was not very happy when he saw the price of [-] plus: "Buy this to make What, I don't use a mobile phone."
"I saw that Village Chief Wang was using it before. Your village should be able to receive the signal. Buy it, it will always be useful."
"I don't have any money." Ou Zixi said as he subconsciously tugged on the coat that he specially changed for going out so that no one would look at him.
Lu Jingnian was amused by his little gesture: "Don't worry, I don't want your money. I know you must have brought money to return to your cousin. Buy this first, and we'll talk about the repayment later."
"But this is useless..."
"Who said it's useless, you have to contact the pharmaceutical factory in the future, you can't let the village head Wang pass the message on your behalf, it's more convenient to have a mobile phone, and it's not good to always go to the canteen to make calls, there are too many people talking."
Thinking of this level, Ou Zixi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth reluctantly and bought it, but finally handed it to Lu Jingnian, a little embarrassed and said: "I don't know how to use it, you should use it, you help me tell them. "
Lu Jingnian looked at his ears that were slightly red from embarrassment or fear of making fun of him, and Piaohu looked at him embarrassedly, smiled and accepted it, and couldn't help but feel better.
After buying a mobile phone and applying for a card, he went out to see that the mobile phone store is opposite the bank, Lu Jingnian pouted at Ou Zixi again: "You brought your ID card, go and open an account."
Ou Zixi was puzzled: "What do you open an account for?"
He used to be considered by Lu Jingnian as living in a primitive society because it was too troublesome to come to the city and all the money was stuffed in a jar and hidden under the bed. But then again, he didn't have much money in the first place.
"I'll open it if I let you. Anyway, it's only 15 yuan for the handling fee."
Unable to resist Lu Jingnian, Ou Zixi did what he said.
Afterwards, the two of them searched for a long time according to the address reported by the people in the pharmaceutical factory, and finally found the gate of the pharmaceutical factory in the alley with all the twists and turns.
The pharmaceutical factory is very small, it looks like the size of a small school from the outside, and the sign hanging outside the door is a little rusty, Lu Jingnian and the old man guarding the gate explained their purpose, the other party called and told them to wait for a while.
Lu Jingnian suddenly asked Ou Zixi: "Do you just want to take back the medicinal materials and do it yourself, or do you want to make things big and recover the money he swallowed before?"
Ou Zixi looked at him with some doubts.
"If you want to get back the previous ones, you can only call the police and collect evidence to sue him. If you just want to keep him from handling it in the future, it's easy. Just tell him clearly and get the business back."
Ou Zixi thought for a while and said, "I still want to stay in that village..."
Lu Jingyoun sighed: "I see."
After a while, a young girl came out and took them in.
The other party asked them with a smile: "Which one of you is Doctor Ou?"
"I am." Ou Zixi answered her.
"Oh, hello, Doctor Ou," the other party said with a smile, "I went to your village with the purchasing team from the factory last year, but I didn't see you at that time. Your village chief said you went out to see a doctor. I entrusted him with carte blanche to sign a purchase contract with us, and I thought it would be great if I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Ou who personally grows such a good medicinal material, but I didn't expect to see him here today."
Ou Zixi smiled lightly, last year?Of course he didn't go out, but he just didn't want to take care of these things, so he didn't meet people.
The girl led them to the purchasing director's office on the second floor of the office building in the factory. The person in charge of purchasing medicinal materials was a middle-aged man with a pot belly. After exchanging pleasantries, the other party invited them to sit down. Here comes a cup of hot tea.
The director's eyes fell on Lu Jingnian with some doubts, Ou Zixi took the initiative to explain: "He is my friend, he came with me."
Lu Jingnian drank his tea calmly. He was not afraid of being recognized. Although he used to be a very famous and promising young entrepreneur in this provincial capital, and he had appeared in newspapers and TV many times, he was not a celebrity after all, not everyone's favorite. I remember his face, not to mention that he is now limping and leaning on a cane, the wound on his forehead is still covered with gauze, and there are abrasions on his face. I am afraid that no one can compare him to the listed big group in such a mess. Contact the former chairman.
Sure enough, the other party dispelled his doubts when he heard what Ou Zixi said, and warmed up with Ou Zi: "Dr. At such a young age, it is even more impressive to be able to grow medicine and treat people by yourself."
Ou Zixi was a little embarrassed, Lu Jingnian saw his discomfort, and spoke for him, "We are here today because we have some doubts about the purchase contract we signed earlier, and we want to ask you, the director."
The other party said generously: "Okay, just say it."
Lu Jingnian did not take out the contract in his hand, but asked him: "Because Doctor Ou's house accidentally caught fire some time ago, all the deposits of the previously signed contract were burned. I would like to ask if you can give us the original copy here. Make a copy for preservation?"
"That's no problem, of course." The director is a very straightforward person, and he didn't doubt him at all, so he went to find out the purchase contract himself and handed it to them.
Ou Zixi began to do business with this pharmaceutical factory at the suggestion of the village chief about three years ago. After that, the pharmaceutical factory went to the village to collect medicines three times. The contract is signed on an annual basis. This year should have been the fourth year. The content is similar, but the price is slightly adjusted according to the market price of medicinal materials in that year.
Lu Jingnian took over the contracts from the factory manager and looked at them. Sure enough, the price was different from the one in Ou Zixi's hand. It almost tripled. He handed the contracts to Ou Zixi, and Ou Zixi frowned immediately. He got up, subconsciously bit his lip, Lu Jingnian pointed at the place where he signed and pressed his fingerprint, Ou Zixi took a careful look at it, and then shook his head slightly.
It means that although the signature looks like it was written by him, it is indeed not signed by him, but someone deliberately imitated his handwriting and signed it for him. to check.
Seeing their weird looks, the director of the pharmaceutical factory asked suspiciously, "Is there something wrong?"
Lu Jingnian looked at the official seal of the pharmaceutical factory again, and it was very similar to the copy of Ou Zixi's. However, as long as there is a template for official seals, you can find a small stall at random, and you can make a fake one for a few dozen yuan. , it's not surprising at all.
So he laughed and asked the factory manager, "I haven't signed the contract for this year, right? When are you going to collect it in the village?"
"I discussed with Village Chief Wang that it will be in the middle of next month. By the way, Village Chief Wang said that you still have a lot of Sanqi this year?"
"Yes, but not as much as the village head told you before, only about half of it."
The other party frowned when he heard this: "Are you still planning to keep it for other companies? Our pharmaceutical factory will accept everything, and the price can be negotiated..."
"That's not true," Lu Jingnian said, "It's true that there are only about four or five hundred kilograms, but we guarantee that the quality is very good, and most of them are less than thirty heads, so if you want, we can sign a contract first. You pay a part of the deposit today, and at the beginning of September, you can send someone to collect it."
"It's okay," the director of the pharmaceutical factory thought for a while, and handed them a list: "This purchase price was negotiated with Village Chief Wang before, please take a look."
Sure enough, as Lu Jingnian said, the price that Village Chief Wang reported to Ou Zixi was totally fake. The purchase price of 150 heads of Panax notoginseng was a bit more than what Lu Jingnian said, as high as 13 per kilogram, and the price of ten heads was even higher. It costs [-], [-] heads can be sold for [-], and the ones that go up are slightly lower, but they are still around [-] or [-]. So if the real estate per mu is [-] kilograms of Sanqi, it can be sold at least More than [-] yuan each.
Lu Jingnian smiled, and said: "When we first came here, we went to the pharmacy and asked about the market price of these [-] head panax notoginseng..."
"This is the purchase price of medicinal materials, which is lower. This price is already very fair." The director was a little embarrassed: "Those big factories buy it even lower than this, and we also want to cooperate with Dr. Ou for a long time. "
"We do plan to expand the planting scale, okay, let's just let this price be this price, just treat it as making friends with you, director, and we will have the opportunity to continue working together in the future." Lu Jingnian was also very forthright.
"Then Village Chief Wang..."
"The medicine field belongs to Doctor Ou. In the past few years, because Doctor Ou couldn't take care of this matter, he asked Village Chief Wang to help. From now on, you can just ask Doctor Ou."
"Can the exact amount be determined?"
When Lu Jingnian looked at Ou Zixi, Ou Zixi thought about it, and wrote an estimated figure for the output of various heads of Sanqi, which added up to a total of about 480 kilograms.
Lu Jingnian read it and erased ten to twenty catties on each number and handed it to the director: "This is the minimum quantity we can guarantee to deliver. Your deposit should be paid in advance at [-]% of this. ?"
The director hesitated for a moment, then nodded, so he asked someone to draw up a new contract, and said to them: "This is a deposit contract, because it is not yet sure how many catties each head of medicine weighs. You can’t write it down, just follow the minimum delivery quantity you wrote, and we will collect it when the time comes. If the quantity is enough, we will deduct the deposit and pay the full amount. If it is not enough, you have to compensate us for the medicine according to the contract. factory."
"Of course." Lu Jingnian smiled at Ou Zixi.
Ou Zixi read it carefully, signed his name solemnly, pressed his thumbprint, and left the copy of his identity, the bank account number and mobile phone number he just opened to the director. Now he finally knew that Lu Jingnian wanted him to do these two things. The purpose of something.
The director of the pharmaceutical factory nodded: "Okay, within two days, the deposit will be credited to the account."
"Thank you~" Lu Jingnian raised the corner of his mouth.
☆、Fake ID card
It was already five o'clock after leaving the pharmaceutical factory, and the last bus back to the village was at six o'clock. Ou Zixi figured out the time, so he should have enough time, and urged Lu Jingnian to go to the station, but Lu Jingnian said he still had things to do.
So the one who dragged his lame leg but couldn't stop dragged Ou Zixi to the busiest small commodity market in the north of the city.
The north of the city is the old city, and it is the poorest part of the old city. Most of the places still maintain the urban style of decades ago and have not been developed, but the small commodity market is the most lively place here.
Lu Jingnian walked into the market and looked around, as if looking for something, Ou Zixi asked him suspiciously, "What are you doing here?"
"Do. False. Certificate."
Lu Jingnian finally found the phone number he wanted for quick visa application on the telephone pole.
A phone call was made, saying that they wanted to apply for a fake ID card. The other party asked a few questions tentatively, and after confirming that he was not a reporter or a policeman who came to expose the case, they made an appointment with him at a meeting place. The door of a small grocery store on the street.
"...Are you really not planning to go back?" Ou Zixi was a little speechless to Lu Jingnian's actions, and even fought about getting a fake ID card.
Lu Jingnian looked at him with a smile: "Doctor Ou, can I work for you?"
Ou Zixi was quite suspicious of his words: "What can you do?"
"I can help you fix the pharmaceutical factory. I will help you deal with the outside world. You just need to concentrate on planting your medicine field well."
Hearing what he said, Ou Zixi thought of the way he was talking to the director of the pharmaceutical factory just now, and he was afraid that he would not have that patience if he came by himself, so he nodded: "Okay, I will pay you."
"Food and lodging included... Just give me some pocket money." Lu Jingnian took the opportunity to make a request.
"it is good."
With Ou Zixi's approval, things became much easier. I found a small photo studio, tore off the gauze wrapped around my head, and took a one-inch photo of my ID with the cut hair on my forehead. Ou Zixi stood behind the photographer, Seeing Lu Jingnian sitting upright in front of the red cloth in the background, with the corners of his mouth slightly curled up at the photographer's request, and his eyes focused on the front, he suddenly felt that he seemed...pretty pretty.
The person who had wrapped the gauze around his head indiscriminately after taking the photo called him: "Little doctor, please help me."
Ou Zixi came back to his senses, remembering what he was thinking just now, he couldn't help being annoyed, and in the end he had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and walk forward.
After coming out of the photo studio, the two of them waited at the door of the grocery store for less than 10 minutes, when an old man with a hooked back came and looked them up and down with his eyes narrowed into slits. The delicate skin and tender flesh looked fragile, and most of the doubts disappeared immediately: "Which one of you wants to apply for a certificate?"
Lu Jingnian smiled and pointed to himself.
The old man led them into the small alley, and finally stopped in front of a very inconspicuous thatched hut, and did not let them in, and asked Lu Jingnian about the name and birthday of the fake ID card that Lu Jingnian was going to apply for. After taking the photo, I went in and told them to wait.
Ou Zixi said unhappily, "Why do you tell people that your surname is Ou?"
"Since it is said that it is your cousin, of course it has your surname, and the fake identity name is of course fake."
"I don't have a cousin," Ou Zixi said honestly, "Everyone in the village knows that my grandma is the only son of my father."
"My cousin didn't say I want to kiss my cousin, little doctor." Lu Jingnian was rather dumbfounded, for Ou Zixi's straightforward way of thinking, he really felt that he was unexpectedly cute when he was innocent.
"Didn't you say your name is...A Nian?" Is that the name? Ou Zixi thought that this person had mentioned it to him before, but he had never called it before.
Lu Jingnian nodded casually.
Ou Zixi wanted to ask him what his name was and where his home was, but seeing Lu Jingnian's appearance, he instinctively sensed that he didn't want to say it, so he swallowed the words after thinking about them.
But Lu Jingnian asked him back: "Little doctor, how old are you?"
"22."
"Oh, I'm still young," Lu Jingnian added with a smile, "I'm twenty-eight."
"..." Ou Zixi had no interest in how old he was.
Half an hour later, Lu Jingnian got his fake ID card, but it was indistinguishable from the real one. Lu Jingnian gestured to Ou Zixi with his eyes, and Ou Zixi reluctantly took out 100 yuan and paid it to the old man.
Resisting not to say anything, he asked, "Fake IDs seem useless, right? If you catch them, you'll have to go to jail." Although Ou Zixi doesn't care about world affairs, he still reads the news often, and he knows that it's not as good as it was a few days ago. In [-], the identity authentication system was connected to the public security bureau, and it would be exposed as soon as it was swiped.
Lu Jingnian smiled: "It's enough to lie to those people in your village, or they will always say that I am an outsider. Since I am your cousin, they can't drive me away."
"……whatever."
After this matter was settled, Lu Jingnian took Ou Zixi to the market again, and saw a group of migrant workers squatting on the side of the road smoking and chatting, so he walked over and asked, "Receive the medicine?" Field, 300 acres of land, harvested in five days, including food and housing, [-] yuan a day, is there anyone going?"
Ou Zixi quickly interrupted him: "What are you doing?"
Lu Jingnian patted his hand, signaling him to be calm.
This price is really high. Those individuals looked at each other and asked about the location of the field, and several people expressed their willingness. In the end, Lu Jingnian chose three honest and honest people, and said to them: "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock Wait here, I'll take you there." Then he dragged Ou Zixi, who was already getting annoyed, away.
"What do you hire someone for? I said I would collect the medicine myself. How would they know how to dig those Sanqis and return so much money? Are you wasting money like this?!" When I thought of hiring three workers to do it Five days would cost him the previous half year's income, and Ou Zixi felt a pain in the flesh.
"Don't you have to do everything by yourself. Why bother to work so hard? If you have time, you can study more prescriptions and cook more food. They came from the countryside to work in the city, and the work in the fields is always done. They should be able to do it very quickly if you teach them." Lu Jingnian thought to himself that the little doctor's dexterous hands would be too reckless if used for digging, and of course he should be encouraged to make fake hands for this kind of rough work.
"Can……"
"Also, let's bypass the village chief and come directly to sign the contract with the pharmaceutical factory. Village chief Wang will know soon, and with Mrs. Wang's family, those people in the village will inevitably make trouble when we go back, and you don't want to It’s going to happen again like before when the medicine field was destroyed by someone, and it’s good to find a few people to watch at night.”
Speaking of this, Ou Zixi can only forget it when he thinks about it. Maybe he thought those people in the village were simple and honest before, but after these two incidents, he did have concerns. In order to avoid the same thing from happening again, , It's also good to find someone to watch.
It was getting dark, the two of them found a small roadside tube and ate something hastily, Lu Jingnian ordered a fried rice cake with sugar, but the rice cake was too hard, the sugar was dark, and I don't know what kind of sugar it was after putting it in for a long time. It was too sticky to the teeth, and there was still an astringent taste in his mouth, so he gave up after taking two bites. Ou Zixi glanced at him: "Don't you want to eat?"
"It's not half as delicious as your cooking."
Ou Zixi tasted the bowl of egg fried rice he ordered. The rice was indeed a bit hard and not fragrant, and the eggs were even tangled together, and they were a little burnt. A full stomach will do.
Lu Jingnian saw that Ou Zixi ate half of the poor-looking meal, so he didn't have the nerve to say anything, so he ate a few more bites and drank a few sips of water, and he was full.
In the end, I still couldn't help complaining to Ou Zixi: "It's hard to swallow, you can make this fried rice cake when you go back, it must be much more delicious than here."
There were very few people in the small shop, and his voice was really loud. The proprietress who was holding the spoon behind her was glaring at him unhappily, but Lu Jingnian didn't realize it at all. Of course, he wouldn't care if he found out, so Ou Zixi had no choice but to let him go. :"……good."
After nightfall, they found a small hotel near the market and opened a double room with Ou Zixi's ID card. Ou Zixi thought to himself that it cost a lot of money to go to the city today, but Lu Jingnian seemed to see his intentions. In a normal way, he smiled and joked: "Little doctor, don't learn from Grandet, you will have money after the deposit arrives in two days."
... Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this.
Ou Zixi's face was full of anger, Lu Jingnian looked at it, and suddenly wanted to reach out to squeeze it, but Ou Zixi seemed to have sensed his intention, glared at him, passed him by, and walked to the elevator first go.
The little doctor lost his temper, but Lu Jingnian became happier, and Ou Zixi's glaring was really funny.
Their room was on the sixth floor. Lu Jingnian opened the window, and the city lights outside were extraordinarily bright. Just looking at it here, it felt completely different from what he used to look out from the office on the top floor of the group building. For his previous life, In fact, he didn't miss it, but he was still a little unwilling.
"What are you thinking?"
When Lu Jingnian turned around, Ou Zixi was standing behind him beside the bed. The light in the room was not turned on, but his eyes were bright, with doubts and even concerns that were not easy to show.
Lu Jingnian suddenly laughed, this little doctor is different from others, although he has not known him for a long time, but somehow he can always make him feel at ease and happy.
Unexplainable, a strange person, this is Ou Zixi's most pertinent evaluation of Lu Jingnian.
☆, shameless village head
Early the next morning, with the three hired migrant workers, Ou Zixi and Lu Jingnian bought tickets and went back to the village by car.
Ou Zixi was still a little worried. It seemed that he was worried that the village head would come to make trouble after he went back, so he sat by the window and stared at the scenery outside the window, then he became dazed.
Lu Jingnian turned his head and saw the outline of his side face, close in front of his eyes. Under the sunlight, he seemed to be able to see the fine hairs on his face clearly, and he became curious for a moment: "Little doctor, you and those little girls Same, will you take good care of your skin?"
Ou Zixi turned his head in doubt, froze for a moment but didn't quite understand what he meant: "What did you say?"
Lu Jingnian smiled and said, "I was asking if you would use those skin care products?"
"..."
Lu Jingnian's hand unconsciously stretched out to his face, touched Ou Zixi's face in a daze, then retracted it, and still had some aftertaste for the slippery texture: "It's really good..."
"what are you doing?"
"You only wash your face with water?"
"Well water, add some self-prepared medicinal powder, and wash it clean."
"Oh..." So it turns out that the little doctor's skin may be so good naturally, but it should have something to do with the fact that he washes his face with traditional Chinese medicine.
Bringing these three people home, Ou Zixi's house obviously couldn't fit in. Fortunately, there is a hut in the back mountain that Ou Zixi's grandma asked someone to build to look after the fields. , and they had just settled down, before Ou Zixi had time to tell people how to dig the notoginseng and how to harvest other medicinal materials, someone came to the door. It was not the village chief who came, but unexpectedly Third uncle.
The third uncle specially came to Houyam Field to see that Ou Zixi really brought someone back, his face stretched, and he asked him: "What's going on? Didn't you say not to bring people here? If you don't have enough manpower, I will You can call someone to help you collect the medicine, why bring someone from outside?"
Lu Jingnian didn't like the old man very much, and he just raised things with those hired people and ignored him completely. Ou Zixi bit the bullet and explained to him: "I think it's embarrassing for every household to collect food for half a month. Trouble them, these people are people I knew and trusted in the city before, so I invited them to help. Third uncle, don't worry, I won't let them go into the village, just live here Show me the medicinal fields on the back mountain side, and let them go when the medicinal materials are all harvested."
The third uncle frowned even more when he heard the words: "Come with me, I have something to tell you."
Ou Zixi hesitated for a moment, but followed obediently.
Seeing Ou Zixi leave with them, Lu Jingnian signaled the three of them to take a rest first, and followed without thinking too much. Ou Zixi followed the third uncle to his house, and Lu Jingnian could only wait outside if it was difficult for him to go in. The village chief Wang Jiandang, whose family is next to the third uncle's, is standing under a tree not far in front of him, smoking, looking depressed.
In the house, the third uncle asked Ou Zixi: "You went to the pharmaceutical factory in the city to sign the contract without telling Jiandang?"
Sure enough, this was the case. Although Ou Zixi didn't know why the news spread so quickly, he also knew that sooner or later he would not be able to hide it, so he could only helplessly say: "I have been bothering the village chief before, and it's not good to ask him to help you with this matter." I, the village head, have a lot of things to do, and I have to take care of family affairs and village affairs, anyway, I have time to spare now, so I do it myself."
"Do you know how to do business with people?" The other party was very skeptical: "That friend of yours asked you to do this?"
"... He is actually my cousin, the grandson of my grandfather and brother. He came here to join me when he couldn't work in the city. He had done some small businesses before and had some experience. I thought anyway, he I'm also doing nothing at home, so I just let him and me take care of the medicinal materials business."
Ou Zixi followed the nonsense that Lu Jingnian told people about his cousins before, but the third uncle didn't believe it: "Didn't you say that he fell down the mountain in a car accident?"
"Well, because I'm not familiar with the road here, there was a car accident when I came here. Fortunately, I found out early." Ou Zixi smiled and answered him with a little embarrassment.
"You really are kid," the other party said in a complaining tone, "Why should you tell Jiandang first, instead of going to the city to find a pharmaceutical factory without even saying hello? how to think?"
"It's because I didn't think carefully..."
"Forget it, it's all like this, you can talk to Jiandang later, why don't you stay with him, he came to me yesterday afternoon and told me that you went to the city to sign the contract without telling him, and the pharmaceutical factory called He didn't know until he confirmed with him, I think he got angry like that, you, you, why are you so careless in doing things."
Ou Zixi let him talk in silence, but he was not very happy in his heart. The village head Wang made it clear that he would not talk back to the third uncle, so he deliberately told the third uncle to come to him to ask for an explanation?
On the other side, Lu Jingnian saw that Village Chief Wang smoked the first cigarette and started to smoke the second one, smiled and walked forward: "Village Chief Wang doesn't seem to be in a good mood?"
The other party glanced at him sideways, and anyone could see the haze in his eyes.
Lu Jingnian didn't seem to care, and asked him: "The village chief doesn't have to work today? Don't you have to take care of all the big and small things in the village? Why do you have time to stand here and smoke?"
Village head Wang threw the last cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stomped it hard, and said impatiently, "Does it have something to do with you?"
Lu Jingnian smiled: "It's nothing, just seeing the village chief standing outside, I thought you knew what third uncle was going to ask Dr. Ou for."
And as soon as he said this, the other party's expression changed, and he seemed to be getting more and more impatient, and finally asked him: "Which pharmaceutical factory did you go to the city with him yesterday?"
Sure enough, Lu Jingnian had actually guessed just now that the people from the pharmaceutical factory should have looked for him. After all, they were also afraid of encountering scammers, so they had to confirm with Village Chief Wang, so they bypassed Village Chief Wang and went directly to the pharmaceutical factory. The matter was known to the village head Wang almost immediately.
Lu Jingnian nodded casually, and answered him casually: "Zixi said that I will help him with the business with the pharmaceutical factory in the future, so I won't bother you, the village chief."
The purpose of saying such an affectionate name is to tell the village chief that he has an unusual relationship with Ou Zixi, that he and he are relatives, and the others are outsiders.
The face of the other party suddenly became even uglier: "You help him? Do you know how to sell this medicine? Who can you find to sell it?"
The corner of Lu Jingnian's mouth turned up a little: "It's better than Zixi foolishly trusting the wrong person, and being betrayed by someone in the end, and being grateful to him."
Being ridiculed by him, the other party's face couldn't hold back completely, and his voice sank: "What do you mean by that?"
With a smile on his face, Lu Jingnian took out the contract from his trousers pocket, unfolded it and held it in front of the village chief, asking him, "Is this the contract that the pharmaceutical factory signed with Zixi?"
The village chief glanced at it, and a look of guilt flashed in his eyes, and then he said calmly, "Yes."
"Salvia miltiorrhiza costs [-] yuan per kilogram, Baizhi [-] yuan per kilogram, and Banlangen [-] yuan per kilogram." Lu Jingnian read the price written in the contract and asked again: "The medicinal materials that the pharmaceutical factory purchased from Zixi every year Is it really the same as what is written in the contract, and the sum is only worth eight or nine thousand?"
"It's written clearly in black and white. Every medicinal material is at this price. Although the medicine in Doctor Ou's field is good, the quantity is not much. It's not bad if you sell it for [-] to [-] a year."
"But what we saw at the pharmaceutical factory is not like this..."
"..." Village Chief Wang slowly clenched his teeth, but he couldn't speak because of guilt.
"You forged the official seal of the pharmaceutical factory, and pretended to be Zixi to sign a fake contract with your fingerprints to deceive Outa. Isn't your behavior considered a fraud? If we report the case to you, it will not be you who say it is you The affairs of the village can be resolved by outsiders." Lu Jingnian spoke slowly, but every word and every word was revealing the old secrets of Village Chief Wang.
After being so intimidated by him, Village Chief Wang's face turned green, but his tone was very firm: "Don't scare me! What can you explain based on such a contract! Who knows if this is forged by you yourself to frame me? !"
When he said this, he made it clear that he was going to deny it. After all, every time he gave money to Ou Zixi, he gave it privately. It is unclear how much he gave to others, but Lu Jingnian obviously didn't take it seriously: "Zixi's signature is on the contract of the pharmaceutical factory. You did it and the fingerprints, right? If you really want to file a lawsuit, handwriting identification will find it out."
Seeing that Village Chief Wang's face turned green and pale after hearing this, and made him even more guilty, Lu Jingnian smiled and took out the mobile phone he bought yesterday from the other pocket of his trousers, and fiddled with it. It was released word for word.
"With this recording, does Village Chief Wang still want to blame him?"
So he deliberately read out the price of the medicinal materials on the contract, and it was also on purpose.
Village head Wang sullenly rushed forward subconsciously to grab the phone, but Lu Jingnian had already moved quickly, stuffed the phone back into his pants pocket, and looked at him with disdain.
Ou Zixi was coming out of the third uncle's house at this time, and came forward to see the strange atmosphere between Lu Jingnian and Village Chief Wang. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Jingnian had already held his hand: "Let's go, let's go home."
Ou Zixi pursed his lips. Although the third uncle wanted him to apologize to Village Chief Wang, it was clear that the village chief was unkind and bullied him first. He didn't say it in front of the third uncle because he didn't want to completely tear his face. It wasn't pretty, but he was asked to apologize instead, but he didn't want to.
So as soon as Lu Jingnian said to leave, Ou Zixi followed Lu Jingnian without much hesitation, leaving behind the distraught village chief, and the two went back home.
Lu Jingnian played the recording to Ou Zixi, but Ou Zixi frowned after listening to it, and said worriedly: "This doesn't mean we're going to have trouble with him."
He didn't say it because he didn't want to do this. Instead, Lu Jingnian got into a fight with Village Chief Wang.
Lu Jingnian didn't take it seriously: "What are you afraid of him doing?"
Ou Zixi said worriedly: "You don't know that even though the trivial matters in the village are decided by the three uncles and the others, it's because everyone gave them three old people face.
"What's wrong with your feet?"
"I fell and twisted while walking. It's not a big deal. It will be fine in half a month."
The man smiled and said: "Young man looks very energetic, have you married a wife?"
The greatest joy of the Seventh and Eighth Aunts is to find out if other people are married. If not, even if they are not suitable, they have to be matched. Lu Jingnian twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and replied patiently: "Not yet, but there is an appointment." Excuse me."
Then his fiancée betrayed him and ran away with someone, which Lu Jingnian didn't say.
"Oh, it's the same as Doctor Ou, and it's time to get engaged. The young man looks like he's in his twenties, right?"
Lu Jingnian was a little surprised when he heard that: "Doctor Ou is also engaged?"
The other party was also very surprised: "You are his cousin, don't you know?"
"...We haven't seen each other for many years, and we just got in touch recently."
"That's why I don't know, he didn't tell you? His wife is the granddaughter of the third uncle's family. Xiaoqing went to work in other provinces and will be back next month for the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"..."
When Ou Zixi arrived on a tricycle, he saw that Lu Jingnian was chatting with someone. The other party called him "Da Ou" to make him affectionate. Ou Zixi looked at him suspiciously. The cousin came and wanted to leave, so he climbed into the car and went, the woman asked Ou Zixi with a smile: "Both brothers are going to the city again today?"
Ou Zixi nodded: "Go shopping."
After riding out of the village on his bicycle, Ou Zixi, who hadn't spoken any more, asked slowly, "Since when did you become my cousin?"
"I said it's your cousin who can stay here more legitimately, and it's not easy for them to drive me away..." Lu Jingnian took it for granted.
☆、Sign a new contract
Departing at noon, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in the provincial capital. Since moving back to the village, Ou Zixi used to rarely go to the city once a season in the past few years, but this time he came to the city for two consecutive days. It's all because there are too many troubles that have been caused recently.
Before going to the pharmaceutical factory, Lu Jingnian took him to a mobile phone store and picked out a simple and easy-to-operate smartphone for him. Ou Zixi was not very happy when he saw the price of [-] plus: "Buy this to make What, I don't use a mobile phone."
"I saw that Village Chief Wang was using it before. Your village should be able to receive the signal. Buy it, it will always be useful."
"I don't have any money." Ou Zixi said as he subconsciously tugged on the coat that he specially changed for going out so that no one would look at him.
Lu Jingnian was amused by his little gesture: "Don't worry, I don't want your money. I know you must have brought money to return to your cousin. Buy this first, and we'll talk about the repayment later."
"But this is useless..."
"Who said it's useless, you have to contact the pharmaceutical factory in the future, you can't let the village head Wang pass the message on your behalf, it's more convenient to have a mobile phone, and it's not good to always go to the canteen to make calls, there are too many people talking."
Thinking of this level, Ou Zixi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth reluctantly and bought it, but finally handed it to Lu Jingnian, a little embarrassed and said: "I don't know how to use it, you should use it, you help me tell them. "
Lu Jingnian looked at his ears that were slightly red from embarrassment or fear of making fun of him, and Piaohu looked at him embarrassedly, smiled and accepted it, and couldn't help but feel better.
After buying a mobile phone and applying for a card, he went out to see that the mobile phone store is opposite the bank, Lu Jingnian pouted at Ou Zixi again: "You brought your ID card, go and open an account."
Ou Zixi was puzzled: "What do you open an account for?"
He used to be considered by Lu Jingnian as living in a primitive society because it was too troublesome to come to the city and all the money was stuffed in a jar and hidden under the bed. But then again, he didn't have much money in the first place.
"I'll open it if I let you. Anyway, it's only 15 yuan for the handling fee."
Unable to resist Lu Jingnian, Ou Zixi did what he said.
Afterwards, the two of them searched for a long time according to the address reported by the people in the pharmaceutical factory, and finally found the gate of the pharmaceutical factory in the alley with all the twists and turns.
The pharmaceutical factory is very small, it looks like the size of a small school from the outside, and the sign hanging outside the door is a little rusty, Lu Jingnian and the old man guarding the gate explained their purpose, the other party called and told them to wait for a while.
Lu Jingnian suddenly asked Ou Zixi: "Do you just want to take back the medicinal materials and do it yourself, or do you want to make things big and recover the money he swallowed before?"
Ou Zixi looked at him with some doubts.
"If you want to get back the previous ones, you can only call the police and collect evidence to sue him. If you just want to keep him from handling it in the future, it's easy. Just tell him clearly and get the business back."
Ou Zixi thought for a while and said, "I still want to stay in that village..."
Lu Jingyoun sighed: "I see."
After a while, a young girl came out and took them in.
The other party asked them with a smile: "Which one of you is Doctor Ou?"
"I am." Ou Zixi answered her.
"Oh, hello, Doctor Ou," the other party said with a smile, "I went to your village with the purchasing team from the factory last year, but I didn't see you at that time. Your village chief said you went out to see a doctor. I entrusted him with carte blanche to sign a purchase contract with us, and I thought it would be great if I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Ou who personally grows such a good medicinal material, but I didn't expect to see him here today."
Ou Zixi smiled lightly, last year?Of course he didn't go out, but he just didn't want to take care of these things, so he didn't meet people.
The girl led them to the purchasing director's office on the second floor of the office building in the factory. The person in charge of purchasing medicinal materials was a middle-aged man with a pot belly. After exchanging pleasantries, the other party invited them to sit down. Here comes a cup of hot tea.
The director's eyes fell on Lu Jingnian with some doubts, Ou Zixi took the initiative to explain: "He is my friend, he came with me."
Lu Jingnian drank his tea calmly. He was not afraid of being recognized. Although he used to be a very famous and promising young entrepreneur in this provincial capital, and he had appeared in newspapers and TV many times, he was not a celebrity after all, not everyone's favorite. I remember his face, not to mention that he is now limping and leaning on a cane, the wound on his forehead is still covered with gauze, and there are abrasions on his face. I am afraid that no one can compare him to the listed big group in such a mess. Contact the former chairman.
Sure enough, the other party dispelled his doubts when he heard what Ou Zixi said, and warmed up with Ou Zi: "Dr. At such a young age, it is even more impressive to be able to grow medicine and treat people by yourself."
Ou Zixi was a little embarrassed, Lu Jingnian saw his discomfort, and spoke for him, "We are here today because we have some doubts about the purchase contract we signed earlier, and we want to ask you, the director."
The other party said generously: "Okay, just say it."
Lu Jingnian did not take out the contract in his hand, but asked him: "Because Doctor Ou's house accidentally caught fire some time ago, all the deposits of the previously signed contract were burned. I would like to ask if you can give us the original copy here. Make a copy for preservation?"
"That's no problem, of course." The director is a very straightforward person, and he didn't doubt him at all, so he went to find out the purchase contract himself and handed it to them.
Ou Zixi began to do business with this pharmaceutical factory at the suggestion of the village chief about three years ago. After that, the pharmaceutical factory went to the village to collect medicines three times. The contract is signed on an annual basis. This year should have been the fourth year. The content is similar, but the price is slightly adjusted according to the market price of medicinal materials in that year.
Lu Jingnian took over the contracts from the factory manager and looked at them. Sure enough, the price was different from the one in Ou Zixi's hand. It almost tripled. He handed the contracts to Ou Zixi, and Ou Zixi frowned immediately. He got up, subconsciously bit his lip, Lu Jingnian pointed at the place where he signed and pressed his fingerprint, Ou Zixi took a careful look at it, and then shook his head slightly.
It means that although the signature looks like it was written by him, it is indeed not signed by him, but someone deliberately imitated his handwriting and signed it for him. to check.
Seeing their weird looks, the director of the pharmaceutical factory asked suspiciously, "Is there something wrong?"
Lu Jingnian looked at the official seal of the pharmaceutical factory again, and it was very similar to the copy of Ou Zixi's. However, as long as there is a template for official seals, you can find a small stall at random, and you can make a fake one for a few dozen yuan. , it's not surprising at all.
So he laughed and asked the factory manager, "I haven't signed the contract for this year, right? When are you going to collect it in the village?"
"I discussed with Village Chief Wang that it will be in the middle of next month. By the way, Village Chief Wang said that you still have a lot of Sanqi this year?"
"Yes, but not as much as the village head told you before, only about half of it."
The other party frowned when he heard this: "Are you still planning to keep it for other companies? Our pharmaceutical factory will accept everything, and the price can be negotiated..."
"That's not true," Lu Jingnian said, "It's true that there are only about four or five hundred kilograms, but we guarantee that the quality is very good, and most of them are less than thirty heads, so if you want, we can sign a contract first. You pay a part of the deposit today, and at the beginning of September, you can send someone to collect it."
"It's okay," the director of the pharmaceutical factory thought for a while, and handed them a list: "This purchase price was negotiated with Village Chief Wang before, please take a look."
Sure enough, as Lu Jingnian said, the price that Village Chief Wang reported to Ou Zixi was totally fake. The purchase price of 150 heads of Panax notoginseng was a bit more than what Lu Jingnian said, as high as 13 per kilogram, and the price of ten heads was even higher. It costs [-], [-] heads can be sold for [-], and the ones that go up are slightly lower, but they are still around [-] or [-]. So if the real estate per mu is [-] kilograms of Sanqi, it can be sold at least More than [-] yuan each.
Lu Jingnian smiled, and said: "When we first came here, we went to the pharmacy and asked about the market price of these [-] head panax notoginseng..."
"This is the purchase price of medicinal materials, which is lower. This price is already very fair." The director was a little embarrassed: "Those big factories buy it even lower than this, and we also want to cooperate with Dr. Ou for a long time. "
"We do plan to expand the planting scale, okay, let's just let this price be this price, just treat it as making friends with you, director, and we will have the opportunity to continue working together in the future." Lu Jingnian was also very forthright.
"Then Village Chief Wang..."
"The medicine field belongs to Doctor Ou. In the past few years, because Doctor Ou couldn't take care of this matter, he asked Village Chief Wang to help. From now on, you can just ask Doctor Ou."
"Can the exact amount be determined?"
When Lu Jingnian looked at Ou Zixi, Ou Zixi thought about it, and wrote an estimated figure for the output of various heads of Sanqi, which added up to a total of about 480 kilograms.
Lu Jingnian read it and erased ten to twenty catties on each number and handed it to the director: "This is the minimum quantity we can guarantee to deliver. Your deposit should be paid in advance at [-]% of this. ?"
The director hesitated for a moment, then nodded, so he asked someone to draw up a new contract, and said to them: "This is a deposit contract, because it is not yet sure how many catties each head of medicine weighs. You can’t write it down, just follow the minimum delivery quantity you wrote, and we will collect it when the time comes. If the quantity is enough, we will deduct the deposit and pay the full amount. If it is not enough, you have to compensate us for the medicine according to the contract. factory."
"Of course." Lu Jingnian smiled at Ou Zixi.
Ou Zixi read it carefully, signed his name solemnly, pressed his thumbprint, and left the copy of his identity, the bank account number and mobile phone number he just opened to the director. Now he finally knew that Lu Jingnian wanted him to do these two things. The purpose of something.
The director of the pharmaceutical factory nodded: "Okay, within two days, the deposit will be credited to the account."
"Thank you~" Lu Jingnian raised the corner of his mouth.
☆、Fake ID card
It was already five o'clock after leaving the pharmaceutical factory, and the last bus back to the village was at six o'clock. Ou Zixi figured out the time, so he should have enough time, and urged Lu Jingnian to go to the station, but Lu Jingnian said he still had things to do.
So the one who dragged his lame leg but couldn't stop dragged Ou Zixi to the busiest small commodity market in the north of the city.
The north of the city is the old city, and it is the poorest part of the old city. Most of the places still maintain the urban style of decades ago and have not been developed, but the small commodity market is the most lively place here.
Lu Jingnian walked into the market and looked around, as if looking for something, Ou Zixi asked him suspiciously, "What are you doing here?"
"Do. False. Certificate."
Lu Jingnian finally found the phone number he wanted for quick visa application on the telephone pole.
A phone call was made, saying that they wanted to apply for a fake ID card. The other party asked a few questions tentatively, and after confirming that he was not a reporter or a policeman who came to expose the case, they made an appointment with him at a meeting place. The door of a small grocery store on the street.
"...Are you really not planning to go back?" Ou Zixi was a little speechless to Lu Jingnian's actions, and even fought about getting a fake ID card.
Lu Jingnian looked at him with a smile: "Doctor Ou, can I work for you?"
Ou Zixi was quite suspicious of his words: "What can you do?"
"I can help you fix the pharmaceutical factory. I will help you deal with the outside world. You just need to concentrate on planting your medicine field well."
Hearing what he said, Ou Zixi thought of the way he was talking to the director of the pharmaceutical factory just now, and he was afraid that he would not have that patience if he came by himself, so he nodded: "Okay, I will pay you."
"Food and lodging included... Just give me some pocket money." Lu Jingnian took the opportunity to make a request.
"it is good."
With Ou Zixi's approval, things became much easier. I found a small photo studio, tore off the gauze wrapped around my head, and took a one-inch photo of my ID with the cut hair on my forehead. Ou Zixi stood behind the photographer, Seeing Lu Jingnian sitting upright in front of the red cloth in the background, with the corners of his mouth slightly curled up at the photographer's request, and his eyes focused on the front, he suddenly felt that he seemed...pretty pretty.
The person who had wrapped the gauze around his head indiscriminately after taking the photo called him: "Little doctor, please help me."
Ou Zixi came back to his senses, remembering what he was thinking just now, he couldn't help being annoyed, and in the end he had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and walk forward.
After coming out of the photo studio, the two of them waited at the door of the grocery store for less than 10 minutes, when an old man with a hooked back came and looked them up and down with his eyes narrowed into slits. The delicate skin and tender flesh looked fragile, and most of the doubts disappeared immediately: "Which one of you wants to apply for a certificate?"
Lu Jingnian smiled and pointed to himself.
The old man led them into the small alley, and finally stopped in front of a very inconspicuous thatched hut, and did not let them in, and asked Lu Jingnian about the name and birthday of the fake ID card that Lu Jingnian was going to apply for. After taking the photo, I went in and told them to wait.
Ou Zixi said unhappily, "Why do you tell people that your surname is Ou?"
"Since it is said that it is your cousin, of course it has your surname, and the fake identity name is of course fake."
"I don't have a cousin," Ou Zixi said honestly, "Everyone in the village knows that my grandma is the only son of my father."
"My cousin didn't say I want to kiss my cousin, little doctor." Lu Jingnian was rather dumbfounded, for Ou Zixi's straightforward way of thinking, he really felt that he was unexpectedly cute when he was innocent.
"Didn't you say your name is...A Nian?" Is that the name? Ou Zixi thought that this person had mentioned it to him before, but he had never called it before.
Lu Jingnian nodded casually.
Ou Zixi wanted to ask him what his name was and where his home was, but seeing Lu Jingnian's appearance, he instinctively sensed that he didn't want to say it, so he swallowed the words after thinking about them.
But Lu Jingnian asked him back: "Little doctor, how old are you?"
"22."
"Oh, I'm still young," Lu Jingnian added with a smile, "I'm twenty-eight."
"..." Ou Zixi had no interest in how old he was.
Half an hour later, Lu Jingnian got his fake ID card, but it was indistinguishable from the real one. Lu Jingnian gestured to Ou Zixi with his eyes, and Ou Zixi reluctantly took out 100 yuan and paid it to the old man.
Resisting not to say anything, he asked, "Fake IDs seem useless, right? If you catch them, you'll have to go to jail." Although Ou Zixi doesn't care about world affairs, he still reads the news often, and he knows that it's not as good as it was a few days ago. In [-], the identity authentication system was connected to the public security bureau, and it would be exposed as soon as it was swiped.
Lu Jingnian smiled: "It's enough to lie to those people in your village, or they will always say that I am an outsider. Since I am your cousin, they can't drive me away."
"……whatever."
After this matter was settled, Lu Jingnian took Ou Zixi to the market again, and saw a group of migrant workers squatting on the side of the road smoking and chatting, so he walked over and asked, "Receive the medicine?" Field, 300 acres of land, harvested in five days, including food and housing, [-] yuan a day, is there anyone going?"
Ou Zixi quickly interrupted him: "What are you doing?"
Lu Jingnian patted his hand, signaling him to be calm.
This price is really high. Those individuals looked at each other and asked about the location of the field, and several people expressed their willingness. In the end, Lu Jingnian chose three honest and honest people, and said to them: "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock Wait here, I'll take you there." Then he dragged Ou Zixi, who was already getting annoyed, away.
"What do you hire someone for? I said I would collect the medicine myself. How would they know how to dig those Sanqis and return so much money? Are you wasting money like this?!" When I thought of hiring three workers to do it Five days would cost him the previous half year's income, and Ou Zixi felt a pain in the flesh.
"Don't you have to do everything by yourself. Why bother to work so hard? If you have time, you can study more prescriptions and cook more food. They came from the countryside to work in the city, and the work in the fields is always done. They should be able to do it very quickly if you teach them." Lu Jingnian thought to himself that the little doctor's dexterous hands would be too reckless if used for digging, and of course he should be encouraged to make fake hands for this kind of rough work.
"Can……"
"Also, let's bypass the village chief and come directly to sign the contract with the pharmaceutical factory. Village chief Wang will know soon, and with Mrs. Wang's family, those people in the village will inevitably make trouble when we go back, and you don't want to It’s going to happen again like before when the medicine field was destroyed by someone, and it’s good to find a few people to watch at night.”
Speaking of this, Ou Zixi can only forget it when he thinks about it. Maybe he thought those people in the village were simple and honest before, but after these two incidents, he did have concerns. In order to avoid the same thing from happening again, , It's also good to find someone to watch.
It was getting dark, the two of them found a small roadside tube and ate something hastily, Lu Jingnian ordered a fried rice cake with sugar, but the rice cake was too hard, the sugar was dark, and I don't know what kind of sugar it was after putting it in for a long time. It was too sticky to the teeth, and there was still an astringent taste in his mouth, so he gave up after taking two bites. Ou Zixi glanced at him: "Don't you want to eat?"
"It's not half as delicious as your cooking."
Ou Zixi tasted the bowl of egg fried rice he ordered. The rice was indeed a bit hard and not fragrant, and the eggs were even tangled together, and they were a little burnt. A full stomach will do.
Lu Jingnian saw that Ou Zixi ate half of the poor-looking meal, so he didn't have the nerve to say anything, so he ate a few more bites and drank a few sips of water, and he was full.
In the end, I still couldn't help complaining to Ou Zixi: "It's hard to swallow, you can make this fried rice cake when you go back, it must be much more delicious than here."
There were very few people in the small shop, and his voice was really loud. The proprietress who was holding the spoon behind her was glaring at him unhappily, but Lu Jingnian didn't realize it at all. Of course, he wouldn't care if he found out, so Ou Zixi had no choice but to let him go. :"……good."
After nightfall, they found a small hotel near the market and opened a double room with Ou Zixi's ID card. Ou Zixi thought to himself that it cost a lot of money to go to the city today, but Lu Jingnian seemed to see his intentions. In a normal way, he smiled and joked: "Little doctor, don't learn from Grandet, you will have money after the deposit arrives in two days."
... Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this.
Ou Zixi's face was full of anger, Lu Jingnian looked at it, and suddenly wanted to reach out to squeeze it, but Ou Zixi seemed to have sensed his intention, glared at him, passed him by, and walked to the elevator first go.
The little doctor lost his temper, but Lu Jingnian became happier, and Ou Zixi's glaring was really funny.
Their room was on the sixth floor. Lu Jingnian opened the window, and the city lights outside were extraordinarily bright. Just looking at it here, it felt completely different from what he used to look out from the office on the top floor of the group building. For his previous life, In fact, he didn't miss it, but he was still a little unwilling.
"What are you thinking?"
When Lu Jingnian turned around, Ou Zixi was standing behind him beside the bed. The light in the room was not turned on, but his eyes were bright, with doubts and even concerns that were not easy to show.
Lu Jingnian suddenly laughed, this little doctor is different from others, although he has not known him for a long time, but somehow he can always make him feel at ease and happy.
Unexplainable, a strange person, this is Ou Zixi's most pertinent evaluation of Lu Jingnian.
☆, shameless village head
Early the next morning, with the three hired migrant workers, Ou Zixi and Lu Jingnian bought tickets and went back to the village by car.
Ou Zixi was still a little worried. It seemed that he was worried that the village head would come to make trouble after he went back, so he sat by the window and stared at the scenery outside the window, then he became dazed.
Lu Jingnian turned his head and saw the outline of his side face, close in front of his eyes. Under the sunlight, he seemed to be able to see the fine hairs on his face clearly, and he became curious for a moment: "Little doctor, you and those little girls Same, will you take good care of your skin?"
Ou Zixi turned his head in doubt, froze for a moment but didn't quite understand what he meant: "What did you say?"
Lu Jingnian smiled and said, "I was asking if you would use those skin care products?"
"..."
Lu Jingnian's hand unconsciously stretched out to his face, touched Ou Zixi's face in a daze, then retracted it, and still had some aftertaste for the slippery texture: "It's really good..."
"what are you doing?"
"You only wash your face with water?"
"Well water, add some self-prepared medicinal powder, and wash it clean."
"Oh..." So it turns out that the little doctor's skin may be so good naturally, but it should have something to do with the fact that he washes his face with traditional Chinese medicine.
Bringing these three people home, Ou Zixi's house obviously couldn't fit in. Fortunately, there is a hut in the back mountain that Ou Zixi's grandma asked someone to build to look after the fields. , and they had just settled down, before Ou Zixi had time to tell people how to dig the notoginseng and how to harvest other medicinal materials, someone came to the door. It was not the village chief who came, but unexpectedly Third uncle.
The third uncle specially came to Houyam Field to see that Ou Zixi really brought someone back, his face stretched, and he asked him: "What's going on? Didn't you say not to bring people here? If you don't have enough manpower, I will You can call someone to help you collect the medicine, why bring someone from outside?"
Lu Jingnian didn't like the old man very much, and he just raised things with those hired people and ignored him completely. Ou Zixi bit the bullet and explained to him: "I think it's embarrassing for every household to collect food for half a month. Trouble them, these people are people I knew and trusted in the city before, so I invited them to help. Third uncle, don't worry, I won't let them go into the village, just live here Show me the medicinal fields on the back mountain side, and let them go when the medicinal materials are all harvested."
The third uncle frowned even more when he heard the words: "Come with me, I have something to tell you."
Ou Zixi hesitated for a moment, but followed obediently.
Seeing Ou Zixi leave with them, Lu Jingnian signaled the three of them to take a rest first, and followed without thinking too much. Ou Zixi followed the third uncle to his house, and Lu Jingnian could only wait outside if it was difficult for him to go in. The village chief Wang Jiandang, whose family is next to the third uncle's, is standing under a tree not far in front of him, smoking, looking depressed.
In the house, the third uncle asked Ou Zixi: "You went to the pharmaceutical factory in the city to sign the contract without telling Jiandang?"
Sure enough, this was the case. Although Ou Zixi didn't know why the news spread so quickly, he also knew that sooner or later he would not be able to hide it, so he could only helplessly say: "I have been bothering the village chief before, and it's not good to ask him to help you with this matter." I, the village head, have a lot of things to do, and I have to take care of family affairs and village affairs, anyway, I have time to spare now, so I do it myself."
"Do you know how to do business with people?" The other party was very skeptical: "That friend of yours asked you to do this?"
"... He is actually my cousin, the grandson of my grandfather and brother. He came here to join me when he couldn't work in the city. He had done some small businesses before and had some experience. I thought anyway, he I'm also doing nothing at home, so I just let him and me take care of the medicinal materials business."
Ou Zixi followed the nonsense that Lu Jingnian told people about his cousins before, but the third uncle didn't believe it: "Didn't you say that he fell down the mountain in a car accident?"
"Well, because I'm not familiar with the road here, there was a car accident when I came here. Fortunately, I found out early." Ou Zixi smiled and answered him with a little embarrassment.
"You really are kid," the other party said in a complaining tone, "Why should you tell Jiandang first, instead of going to the city to find a pharmaceutical factory without even saying hello? how to think?"
"It's because I didn't think carefully..."
"Forget it, it's all like this, you can talk to Jiandang later, why don't you stay with him, he came to me yesterday afternoon and told me that you went to the city to sign the contract without telling him, and the pharmaceutical factory called He didn't know until he confirmed with him, I think he got angry like that, you, you, why are you so careless in doing things."
Ou Zixi let him talk in silence, but he was not very happy in his heart. The village head Wang made it clear that he would not talk back to the third uncle, so he deliberately told the third uncle to come to him to ask for an explanation?
On the other side, Lu Jingnian saw that Village Chief Wang smoked the first cigarette and started to smoke the second one, smiled and walked forward: "Village Chief Wang doesn't seem to be in a good mood?"
The other party glanced at him sideways, and anyone could see the haze in his eyes.
Lu Jingnian didn't seem to care, and asked him: "The village chief doesn't have to work today? Don't you have to take care of all the big and small things in the village? Why do you have time to stand here and smoke?"
Village head Wang threw the last cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stomped it hard, and said impatiently, "Does it have something to do with you?"
Lu Jingnian smiled: "It's nothing, just seeing the village chief standing outside, I thought you knew what third uncle was going to ask Dr. Ou for."
And as soon as he said this, the other party's expression changed, and he seemed to be getting more and more impatient, and finally asked him: "Which pharmaceutical factory did you go to the city with him yesterday?"
Sure enough, Lu Jingnian had actually guessed just now that the people from the pharmaceutical factory should have looked for him. After all, they were also afraid of encountering scammers, so they had to confirm with Village Chief Wang, so they bypassed Village Chief Wang and went directly to the pharmaceutical factory. The matter was known to the village head Wang almost immediately.
Lu Jingnian nodded casually, and answered him casually: "Zixi said that I will help him with the business with the pharmaceutical factory in the future, so I won't bother you, the village chief."
The purpose of saying such an affectionate name is to tell the village chief that he has an unusual relationship with Ou Zixi, that he and he are relatives, and the others are outsiders.
The face of the other party suddenly became even uglier: "You help him? Do you know how to sell this medicine? Who can you find to sell it?"
The corner of Lu Jingnian's mouth turned up a little: "It's better than Zixi foolishly trusting the wrong person, and being betrayed by someone in the end, and being grateful to him."
Being ridiculed by him, the other party's face couldn't hold back completely, and his voice sank: "What do you mean by that?"
With a smile on his face, Lu Jingnian took out the contract from his trousers pocket, unfolded it and held it in front of the village chief, asking him, "Is this the contract that the pharmaceutical factory signed with Zixi?"
The village chief glanced at it, and a look of guilt flashed in his eyes, and then he said calmly, "Yes."
"Salvia miltiorrhiza costs [-] yuan per kilogram, Baizhi [-] yuan per kilogram, and Banlangen [-] yuan per kilogram." Lu Jingnian read the price written in the contract and asked again: "The medicinal materials that the pharmaceutical factory purchased from Zixi every year Is it really the same as what is written in the contract, and the sum is only worth eight or nine thousand?"
"It's written clearly in black and white. Every medicinal material is at this price. Although the medicine in Doctor Ou's field is good, the quantity is not much. It's not bad if you sell it for [-] to [-] a year."
"But what we saw at the pharmaceutical factory is not like this..."
"..." Village Chief Wang slowly clenched his teeth, but he couldn't speak because of guilt.
"You forged the official seal of the pharmaceutical factory, and pretended to be Zixi to sign a fake contract with your fingerprints to deceive Outa. Isn't your behavior considered a fraud? If we report the case to you, it will not be you who say it is you The affairs of the village can be resolved by outsiders." Lu Jingnian spoke slowly, but every word and every word was revealing the old secrets of Village Chief Wang.
After being so intimidated by him, Village Chief Wang's face turned green, but his tone was very firm: "Don't scare me! What can you explain based on such a contract! Who knows if this is forged by you yourself to frame me? !"
When he said this, he made it clear that he was going to deny it. After all, every time he gave money to Ou Zixi, he gave it privately. It is unclear how much he gave to others, but Lu Jingnian obviously didn't take it seriously: "Zixi's signature is on the contract of the pharmaceutical factory. You did it and the fingerprints, right? If you really want to file a lawsuit, handwriting identification will find it out."
Seeing that Village Chief Wang's face turned green and pale after hearing this, and made him even more guilty, Lu Jingnian smiled and took out the mobile phone he bought yesterday from the other pocket of his trousers, and fiddled with it. It was released word for word.
"With this recording, does Village Chief Wang still want to blame him?"
So he deliberately read out the price of the medicinal materials on the contract, and it was also on purpose.
Village head Wang sullenly rushed forward subconsciously to grab the phone, but Lu Jingnian had already moved quickly, stuffed the phone back into his pants pocket, and looked at him with disdain.
Ou Zixi was coming out of the third uncle's house at this time, and came forward to see the strange atmosphere between Lu Jingnian and Village Chief Wang. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Jingnian had already held his hand: "Let's go, let's go home."
Ou Zixi pursed his lips. Although the third uncle wanted him to apologize to Village Chief Wang, it was clear that the village chief was unkind and bullied him first. He didn't say it in front of the third uncle because he didn't want to completely tear his face. It wasn't pretty, but he was asked to apologize instead, but he didn't want to.
So as soon as Lu Jingnian said to leave, Ou Zixi followed Lu Jingnian without much hesitation, leaving behind the distraught village chief, and the two went back home.
Lu Jingnian played the recording to Ou Zixi, but Ou Zixi frowned after listening to it, and said worriedly: "This doesn't mean we're going to have trouble with him."
He didn't say it because he didn't want to do this. Instead, Lu Jingnian got into a fight with Village Chief Wang.
Lu Jingnian didn't take it seriously: "What are you afraid of him doing?"
Ou Zixi said worriedly: "You don't know that even though the trivial matters in the village are decided by the three uncles and the others, it's because everyone gave them three old people face.
