A doctor who travels through two eras

Chapter 113 Lin Lao Er takes advantage of the situation
Everyone in the room looked at the young man, wanting to see if he could answer the question to the satisfaction of the dean.

Lin Sanqi's eyes began to roll, and he wondered what his greatest advantage was. How could he convince the local hospital staff to help with the purchase?
Based on its status as a capital hospital?

By love?
Or relying on your eloquent tongue?

Obviously, these are not the correct answers. Besides, I am not a beautiful pharmaceutical representative, so how can I win over the male leaders of the local hospital?

Suddenly, Lin Sanqi got an inspiration when he looked at the table full of empty plates.

Our advantage is that we can get a lot of food from the "black market".

Now even the capital is short of food, and the local areas are obviously even more short of it. If the time comes and you have to bring a bag of rice to someone's door, which cadre can withstand this test?

"Uncle Shen, this problem is actually easy to solve. I will send them whatever they need."

Dean Shen asked meaningfully, "What if you give them something and they still don't agree?"

Lin Sanqi laughed: "That only means that the gift is not enough, we need to pay more!"

Dean Shen patted Lin Sanqi's shoulder, and was quite excited:
"Okay, okay, the young man is teachable. Look, the problem is easily solved."

Everyone present was smart and understood immediately. It turned out that what Dean Shen was teaching was the way of dealing with the world. But the problem is that even if you understand it, you still have to have something to show for it.

Is it worth sacrificing your personal belongings for public affairs?

"So, Xiao Qi has his own advantages in going to the Northwest, and problems can be easily solved. The Procurement Department has finally been allocated a cadre quota this time. If Xiao Qi can seize it, he will have to work 10 years less. While we old guys are still in office, Xiao Qi can be promoted a few more levels."

Lin Gancao was fine, but the second brother Lin Duzhong was unhappy when he heard it.

I thought to myself, I have been working for several years, why doesn’t my father help me get a cadre position?
You have to know that once you are transferred to an administrative cadre, although you are just a clerk, all the section chiefs and deputy section chiefs in the future will be selected from the clerks, which is equivalent to a step to heaven.

As a result, the eldest brother and I were still workers, and the youngest brother had just started working for the first day when my father was helping to arrange for him to become an official. Why is this old man so partial?

Jealousy made Lin Duzhong's face look a little ferocious.

After the meal, when everyone said goodbye, the purpose of today's dinner party was achieved, and Lin Kucan and Jin Caifeng were very satisfied.

Jin Caifeng and Lin Sanqi took out a few bags from the cabinet next to them.

"Come on, Dean Shen, several leaders, this is a small gift from my little Qi."

After they left the Lin family, they found a corner and took a peek, and they all gasped. The bag contained a pound of tea and a pound of brown sugar, both of which were in short supply in the market.

As for Dean Shen, in addition to getting two kilograms of tea and two kilograms of brown sugar, he also picked up two bottles of white wine and walked home happily humming a little tune.

After everyone had left, Lin Kucan sat down and drank tea, wanting to give his youngest son some instructions.

Jin Caifeng was cleaning up the dishes, and Lin Gancao was about to pick up the broom to clean up. Suddenly, Lin Duzhong couldn't help it anymore:
"Dad, Mom, I think you are being unfair, and I don't accept it!"

Lin Kucan's mind was full of question marks. He put down the teacup in his hand and asked:

"Second brother, how are we being unfair? Tell me so I can understand..."

Lin Gancao was anxious, "Second brother, today is my first day at work. This is a happy event. What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jin Caifeng also put down the bowl and plate, and walked over while wiping her hands and asked, "What's the matter? Why is your father unfair?"

Lin Duzhong tilted his head and said unhappily:

"Brother, you don't care about anything, but I have to say something. I have seen many times that my parents and my younger brother secretly eat meat and don't give it to us. Dad, do you think this is true?"

Lin Kucan nodded slightly: "That's true!"

Lin Duzhong got even angrier when he heard this and asked further:

"Not only does he eat meat, I go to the Red Star Restaurant at the entrance of the alley for breakfast every day. In addition, he even took people to Fengze Garden for a meal. Brother, is this true?"

Lin Sanqi touched his head awkwardly: "That's true, but second brother, I swear to God, I brought Jiageng and Zhenzhen with me, and I didn't treat them badly."

Lin Sanqi thought that the two children were complaining that he had treated them unfairly, which was too unfair.

Lin Duzhong sneered when he heard this:
"Dad, all this feasting and drinking requires money and food coupons. When we divided the family, you said it would be divided into four parts. But you left most of the family property to the youngest. Otherwise, where would he get the money to eat and drink? You are clearly partial to your youngest son!"

Lin Kucan blinked and looked at his old wife:

"Did you give subsidies to the old and the young? Anyway, I didn't, and I have no idea."

When Lin Duzhong heard his father's denial, he got even angrier:
"Okay, let's not talk about the luxury first, let's talk about this house. Look at the decoration. The house has a three-seven wall. This must have cost a lot of money, right? I just came back from wandering and I have no money. Where did he get the money to decorate it?
And tonight, this table of meat dishes, my God, when did our Lin family become so rich that we can eat as much fat as we want? It’s not enough to finish it, and everyone has to give a generous gift. Tonight, there must be several hundred yuan, right? Where does this money come from? "

Lin Kucan took a sip of tea and looked as if he had suddenly realized something:

"I see. You think I secretly hid the family property and then secretly let my youngest son take the lion's share. As the second oldest brother, you've suffered a loss. Is that what you mean?"

Lin Duzhong was already furious, his face flushed with anger: "Not only am I at a disadvantage, my elder brother is at a disadvantage too!"

When Lin Gancao heard this, he quickly advised: "Alright, alright, our family's money is all earned by Dad, Dad can divide it however he wants!"

When Lin Kucan heard this, he raised his hand and waved:
"Stop, stop, stop. I have no need to explain. Our family's property is indeed divided into four parts. You are all my flesh and blood. How could I favor one over the other? Your mother and I can guarantee this. As for the delicious food and fish, uh, these were all obtained by Qizi himself. We are enjoying his blessing!" "Dad!!!"

Lin Duzhong shouted, "You think we are three-year-old children. If I had this ability, would I still be wandering around like a beggar?"

Lin Kucan stood up, picked up the water cup and said calmly:

"Second brother, you are my son and I have just explained a few things to you. It is your business whether you listen or not. A harmonious family is the foundation of everything. There is no need to get entangled over petty gains. Okay, I am going to sleep. If you can't figure it out, just go and cool off by yourself."

After saying that, Lin Kucan walked towards the door and into the night.

Lin Sanqi was not too angry. After all, he knew in his heart that he and the people in front of him were not really brothers.

Another thing is that he has a clear conscience. Since he traveled to this era, he has only invested money here, but has never taken advantage of the Lin family.

"Brother, I want to explain a few things. I got all the delicious food and fish at home by myself. Dad and mom did want to help me, including decorating the house, but I never asked them for a penny. Believe it or not, this is the fact."

Jin Caifeng quickly tried to smooth things over:
"Yes, second brother, you don't know how capable your little brother is. Some things cannot be said publicly, but one thing is for sure, as long as your little brother is here, our family will never go hungry again."

"Mom, even you are on Qizi's side. You don't even consider me and my elder brother as your own sons. Okay, okay, okay!!! Don't even think of me helping Qizi with his affairs in the future, humph!"

Lin Duzhong gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and walked out the door, looking aggrieved.

Lin Sanqi is a young man, and young people cannot stand provocation. At this time, he also shouted to the outside with an unhappy face:

"Okay, we won't help each other in the future, but don't bother my parents. If you're a man, you should support your family with your own abilities instead of thinking about your parents' property all day long!"

The answer was the sound of the courtyard door slamming heavily.

When Jin Caifeng saw the mess in the end, she sat on the chair and started wiping her tears.

Lin Gancao kept persuading her, "Mom, don't cry. I'll go and persuade the second child."

"It's all my fault. I was strict with you since you were young, but I spoiled your second brother. That's why he has a bad temper and can't tell right from wrong. Sigh..."

Lin Sanqi angrily took out a sack from the cabinet and stuffed it into Lin Gancao's pocket:
"Brother, take this. I originally gave one to you and one to my second brother. Now that my second brother doesn't appreciate it, I'll save it. Hide the things in here and don't let anyone see it."

The Lin family parted ways on bad terms.

Lin Gancao returned home and told his wife Fu Muxiang what happened after dinner. Both of them looked worried.

Fu Muxiang then noticed the sack her husband was carrying when he came in: "What is this?"

"Oh, this is something Qizi gave me. It's quite heavy, but I didn't see what it was."

Fu Muxiang felt a little strange, so she walked over and opened the sack. Suddenly, her eyes lit up in the dim light:
"Hey, husband, come and see, where did Qizi get all these good things?"

Inside the bag were two kilograms of tea, three kilograms of brown sugar, a bag of rice weighing about 20 kilograms, five bottles of canned yellow peaches, and a whole Jinhua ham. The last thing that was taken out was a whole bag of fruit candies, which were obviously prepared for children.

Lin Gancao was so shocked when he saw the table full of things that he couldn't close his mouth:
"Where did Qizi get so many things? Even our dad can't get these things. It seems that Qizi really got all the fish and meat today by himself. Lao Er wronged our dad."

In the main room, Lin Kucan was washing his feet while reading a book, looking lifeless at all.

Jin Caifeng wiped her tears while making the bed and asked:

"What should we do? The second son has misunderstood. How about we give him 500 yuan from our share? We can't let our son misunderstand us, right?"

Lin Kucan continued to read the book and said without raising his head:
"That's not necessary. If he makes a scene, and you give him 500 yuan, he will get a taste of the sweetness and continue to make a scene next time. Are you going to give him another 500 yuan next time?"

"But if the second brother is like this, how will the three brothers get along with each other in the future?"

"Let them do what they want. Anyway, don't meddle in other people's business. The more parents intervene, the more likely it is that brothers will have conflicts.

If brothers live in harmony, and the youngest is willing to help the older brother in the future, that is the second brother’s own blessing. If brothers quarrel with each other and offend the youngest to death, that is also the second brother’s own misfortune.

Jin Caifeng sat beside the bed with a sad look on her face: "They are all our flesh and blood."

Lin Kucan put down the book, sighed softly and said:
"Raise a son to provide for your old age. It is impossible for you to rely on the second son and his wife to support you in your old age. The eldest son is a loyal and honest man, and he has inherited my legacy. He will not ignore us, so it is enough to have the eldest son to support us in our old age.

As for Lao Xiao, he is a capable Monkey King. God let us find him again, probably because he wants us to enjoy a few more years of happiness. So, there is no need to worry.

A lucky person speaks little, while an impatient person speaks a lot. There is no need to explain too much. Let's just take care of our health. Our son will have his own children and grandchildren."

At this time, in the west room, Lin Duzhong and his wife Pei Xuehua were also whispering:
"Honey, I also ate this pork elbow today. I don't think this is my father's style. He usually doesn't meddle in other people's business. He always eats whatever is available. Do you think these delicious fish and meat were really obtained by me?"

Lin Duzhong said unhappily:

"What do you know, woman? Nowadays, as long as you have money, there is nothing you can't buy? Qizi came back with nothing, but did he bring money or food coupons? They were all given to him secretly by our parents!
Anyway, it's better to have a quarrel. This way, our dad won't dare to give money to Qizi casually in the future. As for the future, since my parents are so partial, let the youngest son take care of it in his old age. Don't come to me, hum!"

After all this time, it turns out that Lin Duzhong was taking advantage of the issue and making careful moves to prepare public opinion for his future when he will be able to take care of his parents in their old age.

I have to say, Lin Laoer is really smart.

Unfortunately, there is a saying that goes, "too clever is too clever." You may think you have lost a sesame seed, but in fact you have lost a big watermelon...
