A leisurely life reborn in the fiery age

Chapter 217 There is an expert in the Dragon and Tiger Hall

"Dad, I thought that after you came to Hong Kong Island, you would be unable to restrain your ambition and want to do something new in your career."

Weng and his son-in-law left Hung Hom, took a coastal minibus, and drove along the coastal road. After looking at the sea view outside for a while, Li Yuan said with a smile.

Lou Zhentao shook his head and sighed: "I am almost 60 years old this year, so old."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Not to mention Jiang Ziya and Jiang Taigong were awarded the title of prime minister in their 50th year. Li Jing, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, did not start his military exploits until he was 64 years old. There is no record of Zhang Jianzhi in the history books before he was 80 years old. He drove Wu Zetian away when he was in his [-]s. Only after he stepped down did he become the king of the county. The ancients could still do this, so why should you be so humble?"

Lou Zhentao laughed and said: "To say I am modest is to flatter my face. How can I compare with them?"

Even so, he still looked happy.

But after laughing, he sighed and said: "After all, I am still old and can't keep up with the changes in the world, so I was tricked so miserably. Later, I reflected on why this happened? I didn't even have the power to fight back... Slowly I came to understand that in Sijiu City, we were a group of enlightened and wise people. Whether we were making steel or electricity, as long as we dared to do it, were ruthless enough, and bold enough, we would be able to accomplish anything. Others I don't understand. At that time, there was a shortage of steel materials everywhere, and there was even less steel rolling technology. The people who sold it to Chiang Kai-shek would make huge profits by smuggling it to the red men.

Looking at Hong Kong Island now, any business that can make money has long been taken over by those tycoons.

Every tycoon has a group of fellow countrymen gathered around him to occupy the upstream and downstream of those industries. If anyone else wants to get in, they won't be able to do so even if they have money.

I heard some things after I came here. I didn’t believe it at first, but now that I think about it, it’s probably true.

It is said that on the eve of liberation, a large group of rich people from Shenghai suddenly came to Hong Kong Island.Those are the real influential figures along the Huangpu River, headed by Du Yuesheng.

How could Du Yuesheng's reputation be compared to today's gangsters from Hong Kong?It is said that at that time, prominent figures in Hong Kong Island were proud to meet Du Yuesheng. Even people from the Hong Kong government hoped to meet him.

As the old saying goes, it’s not that the Raptors can’t cross the river!

At that time, everyone thought that the wealthy families in Hong Kong Island, who were mainly from Guangdong and Fujian provinces, would be marginalized, the world of Hong Kong Island would be reshuffled, and Hong Kong Island would be occupied by people from Shenghai.

The results of it?
The four major families headed by the Li Shipeng family secretly took action to arouse the Hong Kong government's fear of the Shenghai Gang. After several manipulations, the bones of the tycoons from Shenghai Gang were chewed to pieces.

Du Yuesheng was a majestic Qinggang emperor, but he and his wife were robbed by gangsters when they went out. His wife handed over her jewelry and was photographed and made headlines in newspapers. He lost all his wisdom in his life and died in depression.

Even Du Yuesheng is like this, let alone us?
Therefore, Genzi, you said that you don’t want to do anything big, but just want to open a good pharmacy and live a good life. Maybe that’s the smartest thing to do. "

Li Yuan discovered that Lou Zhentao was really old.

It's not that his hair has become much grayer, but that his energy and energy are not as good as when he was in Sijiu City.

But it's normal. Although I am also idle at home in Forty-Nine City, I can at least comfort myself in my heart. It's a country bumpkin who doesn't understand the economy and doesn't know how to employ people. It's because the general environment is not good. Being idle at home is not a crime of war.

However, after arriving in Hong Kong Island, I wanted to show off my talents and do a good job. Unexpectedly, the father and son almost lost money and did not jump into the sea.

There's no excuse now...

The blow to self-confidence is devastating.

No wonder, this time I found that my old father-in-law was indeed much older and a little depressed...

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Dad, you really think highly of those people. If you were not in Peiping, or if you had come to Hong Kong decades ago, you would be the designated tycoon of Hong Kong and Kowloon.

They have nothing special to do. Apart from plastic flowers, textiles, clothing, toys, docks, real estate, shipping... they just do whatever the people in Western developed countries lack in their lives. What other technology industries are they worthy of being proud of? What?not a single one!

Such good conditions are in vain...

By the way, go back 40 to [-] years, which one of them didn't accumulate wealth by working as compradors selling prostitutes to foreigners?
So no big deal, bullshit tycoon.

No matter how much wealth they have, such people will not be respected. "

Lou Zhentao laughed and said: "Most people dream of being like them. Your eldest brother really wants to be the king of plastic flowers, the king of textiles, the king of toys... If you can be one, you will feel that this life is enough. It can be seen that your eldest brother, the second brother My talent is really average, far inferior to yours."

Li Yuan chuckled and did not refute. Those two brothers-in-law were just average people at best, not as good as Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu.

This is also the reason why Li Yuan exposed so many clues to the destruction of Fu Yixing in front of the Lou family. He could do it without knowing it.

Doing so is nothing more than killing a chicken to scare the monkeys and further draw a clear line between them.

Wealthy families have many disputes. Once wealth accumulates to a certain level, family ties become increasingly indifferent.

The Li Shipeng family was originally the largest family in Hong Kong, spanning politics, business, and law, and was almost unrivaled.

The younger generations also strive to achieve their goals and have outstanding talents.

As a result, it gradually declined due to internal fighting. In the next ten years, as the internal fighting intensified, it was finally secretly attacked by a descendant named Liu Luanxiong, and even the ancestral Chinese property was taken away.

This situation is common among Hong Kong's wealthy families.

If they do not draw a clear line with the two brothers-in-law of the Lou family, it will be difficult for Lou Ying and Lou Jun not to covet his pharmaceutical factories and drug stores when they become famous.

Life can be neither yin nor yang, making people uncomfortable.

It's not as good as now. You don't have to break up, you can maintain the relationship between relatives, and you don't have to worry about the two families interfering in your family business as the eldest brother or second brother.

Peaceful and comfortable.

As for the help that the destruction of Fu Yixing provided to the Lou family, let it be considered as repayment for helping Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu gain a foothold on Hong Kong Island a few years ago.

It's not that he cares about everything, he has to calculate everything clearly.

But the more he saw, the more he discovered that the six words "brothers, settle accounts clearly" left by his ancestors were worth a thousand pieces of gold.

The more we want to be brothers, the more we have to do this.

This is true for the Lou family, and it will be true for the Li family in the future.

Working as a wet nurse or a nanny for free will only stimulate further greed in people's hearts and will do no other good...

"Dad, where is that island?"

Li Yuan suddenly pointed out the window and asked. A few hundred meters away from the sea, there was a large island.

Lou Zhentao said: "There... let me take a look, it should be Qingyi Island. Look over there, a cross-sea bridge is being built. Oh, if this bridge is built, this place will start to be developed."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Dad, you know that this place is going to be developed, don't you plan to invest in it?"

Lou Zhentao said with a sad expression: "I am old. If I were 20 years younger, even ten years, I would definitely buy a share there."

Li Yuan stared at the other side of the sea for a long time, nodded and said: "Yes, it is a good place."

Although compared with the prosperity of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, Tsing Yi Island is almost a wasteland now.

But don't forget, the current population of Hong Kong Island is only 300 million, but within 20 years this number will become 400 million, 500 million, 600 million... Today's Hong Kong and Kowloon are already extremely congested. This island is so close to Kowloon. , there must be great potential in the future, and it can maintain a certain degree of tranquility in the past ten or twenty years, making it a perfect place for pharmaceutical companies to settle down.

……

"Oh, Dad, Yuanzi, why are you here?"

The prince said to the west, Lou Xiao'e was leading a medicine shopping guide to sell medicines in the Longhu Hall. When he saw Li Yuan and Lou Zhentao and his son-in-law entering with smiling faces, he smiled in surprise.

The female shopping guide who received Li Yuan yesterday was also pleasantly surprised: "I was just telling the boss that the gentleman who came to see the boss yesterday was really handsome! It turned out to be the boss's husband!"

Li Yuan smiled and nodded, and said to Lou Xiao'e: "I walked around Hong Kong Island with my dad, and we were going to the wet market to buy some food, so we went back to cook. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Not to mention the clerk, even the customers in the store looked sideways.

Such a young man doesn't want to go out to earn more money, but he actually wants to buy food and cook?

The aura of the handsome boy was reduced by more than half...

Lou Xiao'e didn't care, her eyes turned into crescent moons as she smiled, and said: "Everything is delicious! Shaoyu fillets, sweet and sour shrimps, fried sea cucumbers with green onions?"

Lou Zhentao even laughed: "Are you sorry?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "It's okay. Good cooking skills need to be eaten by people who can appreciate them to have a sense of accomplishment."

The people around were completely speechless...

That is to say, because Li Yuanchang is really good-looking, I can't bear to say anything to him. Otherwise, the aunts in Hong Kong would persuade her by saying: "Young man, why don't you go join a club and make money?"
"Hey, why are you here?"

As he was talking, Lou Xiu led a young couple holding a child downstairs with a forced smile.

Li Yuan saw it and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lou Xiu reacted, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said: "Yuanzi, come and take a look. There is a child here, less than two years old. He has had a cold and fever for several days. He went to Queen Mary Hospital and Chanyu Hospital. It is the top pediatric hospital in Hong Kong, but there is still no way to reduce the fever. After seeing it, Dr. Huang was not very sure. He prescribed medicine, but it also said that if it didn't work, the baby might become seriously ill..."

After that, he said to the young couple: "This is the founder of our Dragon and Tiger Hall. He studied under the guidance of a top doctor from mainland China and is of very high standard. If you trust him, you can ask him to come and take a look at your baby."

Seeing that Li Yuan was so young, the couple was not very willing at first, but the child had reached this point, and even Queen Mary Hospital had no choice but to bite the bullet and go forward.

In his own hall, Li Yuan naturally didn't care about this. When he observed the face of the child in the woman's arms, he saw that the child's complexion was blue, with high fever on the nose, between the eyebrows and around the lips, and the lips were light-colored. But there is no dryness or cracking, indicating that the body fluids are not damaged...

I have a fever like this, and it lasted for four days, but my body fluids were not damaged?
After Li Yuan observed for a while, he gently took out the baby's hand, stretched out the index finger, then grasped and fixed the other fingers, and then used the thumb of his right hand to push the index finger straight from the fingertip to the root of the finger.

"What are you doing?"

The child's mother felt that the child in her arms seemed a little uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask.

A voice came from behind: "This is the children's index finger pulse diagnosis method. It is a special diagnosis method for children under two years old. I didn't expect that there are still young people who know this."

Li Yuan guessed who the visitor was, but ignored him.

Firstly, he was still diagnosing the pulse, and secondly, he was not very familiar with other people, but he knew a lot about Huang Daoyi.

When Gein was working in his previous life, there were always people in the department gossiping about the vice president, saying that he was the reincarnation of Huang Daoyi.

It’s not that the vice president’s medical skills are as good as this, but because of the property issue, he first sued his son, daughter, then his wife, and finally his grandchildren...

The life trajectory of Huang Daoyi is exactly the same.

To a person with such a personality, all politeness, respect, and politeness are in vain.

If you have enough money, you can talk about anything.

If the money is not enough, they will fall out every minute.

Needless to say, Li Yuan quite appreciates this personality in the workplace.

Direct work, straightforward, simple and efficient.

After looking at the child's tongue coating, Li Yuan had an idea. However, to be sure, he checked the pulses in both hands and finally said with a smile: "Floating pulse, floating pulse mainly refers to superficial syndrome, slippery in floating, mainly wind." The phlegm is in the lungs. This disease is due to the feeling of wind and cold. It should be treated with pungent and warm medicines to relieve the superficial symptoms. However, before, pungent and cool medicines were used instead, which caused the superficial stagnation and evil traps and the lack of lung defense, so coughing and fullness of breath. The treatment is to relieve muscles and expel wind. , harmonize the camp and the body, lower Qi and calm asthma, eliminate evil and bring out the symptoms, combine bitter-warm and pungent-warm methods, use cinnamon twigs to add magnolia and apricot soup to taste. I will prescribe a recipe, you can fry it here and eat it, the body temperature should be reduced ”

This word...

Huang Daoyi, who has been practicing medicine for decades, turned his attention to him.

A group of Hong Kong aunts and uncles who were around were planning to leave after buying the medicine. After hearing this, they didn't rush to leave. They just stood there and waited to watch the excitement.

At their age, watching the excitement is second best. If they can really find a good Chinese medicine doctor, it is the same as winning the Mark Six Lottery!

The couple saw that although Li Yuan was young, he was so confident, so they took the risk...

When Li Yuan walked to the counter, he picked up the pen and quickly wrote out the prescription. As soon as the clerk took over, Huang Daoyi took it away. After looking down, he looked at Li Yuan again, and he went to boil the medicine himself.

After a long while, Huang Daoyi came down with a bowl of medicine, and the couple gave it to the dying baby, who was very energetic. Within 5 minutes, Huang Daoyi suddenly became energetic and said: "I'm sweating! This is my relief." !”

As we all know, colds are divided into wind-cold syndrome and wind-heat syndrome. Wind-cold means wind-cold external evils are bound to the surface, and cold will warm it up. You need to use the pungent-warming method.

If you have wind-heat, it means heat evil, and you need pungent coolness to relieve the symptoms.

This child has wind-cold syndrome, so naturally he should use pungent and warm medicine to relieve the symptoms.

Huang Daoyi hurriedly recruited a store clerk to take his temperature. After the measurement, the temperature was 38 degrees Celsius. The young couple was so happy that they almost cried.

I had a high fever of [-] degrees for four days, and it couldn't go away no matter how hard I tried. I only took this medicine for a short time, and it went down so much!
After another quarter of an hour, I took my temperature again and found it had dropped to 36 degrees six...

Children don't hide their illnesses. When they have a fever and feel uncomfortable, they become wilted and unwilling to move except for crying.

But as soon as the fever subsided, he immediately became active. This boy was also a talent. He asked his father for a toy car. His father only hesitated for a moment, then rushed over with a punch to the head. The man covered his eyes and said "miserable" Call out...

A group of people watched and laughed.

Then I looked at Li Yuan, who asked the clerk for a few paper bags and was going to the market to buy vegetables, and his eyes lit up:

There are experts in this Dragon and Tiger Hall!
