A doctor who travels through two eras

Lin Sanqi quickly reminded:

"Dad, someone promised me that as long as it is beneficial to the country, no one will settle accounts with me. I will not talk about it in the future. I think I should be safe for now."

Lin Kucan smiled bitterly:
"Yes, maybe you will say that someone has promised you that there will be no investigation, no pursuit, and no liquidation, but the person who made these three promises to you has an unknown future. Sometimes you can only listen to the words of the leader and cannot believe them completely.

Similarly, if you cooperate with the country and help the country, maybe in extraordinary times those people will be grateful to you and follow your lead. But if there is a slight disturbance one day, do you believe that you will be the first to be beheaded as a sacrifice, because you are the one who dances the most happily? "

Lin Sanqi put down the book, realizing the seriousness of the matter.

"Dad, I've thought about it, but I need to complete the initial capital accumulation now. Everything I do is to make money, make a lot of money, and then make myself stronger. So now, I have to cooperate with them.

When I have enough money one day, I will change the way I cooperate with them, avoid becoming a pawn in the struggle, and avoid being a victim of the guillotine. When I have the strength and ability to protect myself, I can better help the country.

For example, if I have a batch of medicines in my hand, when I have money, I can open a pharmaceutical factory and sell the world's most advanced Western medicines throughout the country, benefiting the people of the whole country, and even sell them abroad to create foreign exchange for the country.

Dad, I am not a bad person. I also love this country and have never thought of harming it, so Dad, please believe me. "

Lin Kucan heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this:

"It seems that you have understood what is going on. I am glad. I am most afraid that you will become arrogant. When you wake up one day, you will be standing on the edge of a cliff. If someone pushes you, you will be doomed."

Lin Sanqi thought that he had a golden finger, but even if he wanted to run away, people of this era could not stop him.

Because as long as there is a door, he can disappear without a trace.

But as I said, it would be easy for him to leave, but those who remain in this era will be doomed.

It doesn't matter if my second brother and his wife are there to offer sacrifices, but what about my parents, my eldest brother's family, and Pan Ye? Should we send them all to Jiabiangou?

Taoism emphasizes cause and effect.

When Lin Sanqi traveled through time and space and recognized the Lin family as his relative, he wanted to seduce the girl and get a girlfriend because he was attracted by her body. This is the "cause".

Everything has its own cause and effect. Now these family members and lovers have become his "effects", making it impossible for him to just walk away.

Otherwise, in 2023, the company will have 10 billion in cash in its account and billions of medicinal materials in the warehouse. Isn't that enough for him to rest easy?

"Dad, don't worry, I know what I want, what I do, and the future direction of our country, so I won't easily step into a minefield and be blown to pieces.

Now the country is in trouble and lacks food, so I transferred a large amount of food from abroad, and I even got a very precious hybrid technology that can increase food production several times. On the one hand, I am contributing to the country, and on the other hand, I am telling them that I am useful.

Of course they use me, and I use them too. I need domestic medicinal materials, from precious ginseng, musk, bezoar to the most common medicinal materials. I want them all, as many as I can get. If I rely on my own strength, I will definitely not be able to do it, so I have to use the collective strength.

So now I am only in the initial contact with them, and the honeymoon period will last for a while in the future. This period of time is enough for me to obtain a large amount of medicinal materials and complete the initial capital accumulation. I am not afraid of any disturbances. "

Lin Kucan shook his head in disapproval:

"No, in our country, merchants have had the lowest status for thousands of years. Having money is not necessarily a good thing. In fact, in many cases, having money is a bad thing.

By the time you have completed the initial capital accumulation, someone may say that your capital accumulation is illegal and all your accumulation may become nothing.

If you don't believe me, go look through history. From Lü Buwei in the Qin Dynasty, to Shi Chong in the Western Jin Dynasty, to Shen Wansan in the Ming Dynasty, these big businessmen were as rich as a country, but which of them had a good ending? In the end, their families were destroyed.

Let's not talk about the distant past, let's talk about the recent past. Hu Xueyan, a veteran in our pharmaceutical industry, had a fortune of more than 20 million taels of silver at his peak, which was equivalent to two-thirds of the Qing government's annual tax revenue. Isn't it an exaggeration to say that he was rich enough to rival a country?

Not only was he rich, he was also very patriotic. Without his full financial and human support, how could Zuo Zongtang have the money to recover Xinjiang? Hu Xueyan's contribution was not small, was it? It is not an exaggeration to call him a national hero.

But what happened in the end? His patron Zuo Zongtang was no match for Li Hongzhang and fell. Hu Xueyan had money and merits, but what was the use? In the end, he was still killed by Li Hongzhang and Sheng Xuanhuai, and ended up with his wife and children separated.

So money is not the most important thing in any era; the most important thing is power.

But how can money and power be easily obtained? If you want to climb up, you have to harm others, and you have to be on guard against being harmed by others. Our Lin family has no one to rely on in the city. Without a helping hand, you can't get up."

Lin Kucan thought that his son wanted to follow the path of a well-known businessman, doing business to make money while serving as an official.

From his recent position as the head of the purchasing department of the Changping branch of the Chinese Medicine Hospital to the second lieutenant of the Digital Hospital, his career seems to be going smoothly, but in the opinion of Dr. Lao Lin, this is clearly like walking on a tightrope.

Lin Sanqi was a little surprised. He thought that his old father usually hated to meddle in other people's affairs and always insisted on letting things take their own course. Why did he suddenly start preaching today? It was rare for him to say so many words in one breath. "Dad, did you hear something?"

Lin Kucan put down his bowl and chopsticks, and suddenly said something out of nowhere:
"I received a letter. Your fifth uncle and sixth uncle went to Hong Kong."

"what?"

Lin Sanqi couldn't keep up with the situation: "Uncle 5 and Uncle 6 went to Hong Kong? How did they go? Do they have Hong Kong and Macau Passes now?"

Lin Kucan smiled and said, "How? Of course they swam over. I asked them to go."

There are too many uncles in the Lin family, such as the second uncle, the third uncle, the fourth uncle, the fifth uncle, and the sixth uncle. He can't tell who is related to who. He really wants to sing: There are too many uncles in my family, and they don't come to visit unless there is something important.

"Dad, what's going on with the fifth and sixth uncles? And why did you let them swim to the Xiangjiang River? It's so dangerous. I heard that there are soldiers guarding the beach. If they are caught, they will be shot. Besides, the fifth and sixth uncles have no one to rely on in the Xiangjiang River. What can they do there?"

Lin Sanqi is also someone who has read online novels. Hong Kong in 1960 was not as good as imagined. It was dominated by corrupt police and gangs.

After mainlanders fled to Hong Kong and arrived in Hong Kong, even if they could find a job, they would only do the lowest level jobs, and countless of them even had to beg for food.

Not everyone has the good luck of a wicked person like Li Jiacheng, who happened to have an uncle in Hong Kong who married his cousin to him to help him develop his career. In the end, he gave his little cousin a coffin building...

Lin Kucan had a little pride on his face, and then he continued softly:

"I have several properties in Hong Kong, which I bought in 48. I have always asked my friends in Hong Kong to help me manage them. This time, I asked your fifth and sixth uncles to go over. On the one hand, they can help manage the properties, and on the other hand, they can open a Lingnan Hall clinic in Hong Kong to promote my family's old brand."

Lin Sanqi's eyes widened when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old man actually had a trick up his sleeve?
"Dad, come on, our family has a house in Hong Kong? How did you do that? This is too amazing, isn't it?"

"Haha, isn't it amazing? When the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were fighting each other, my father left a way out for our family. He bought three small buildings in Yau Ma Tei, Hong Kong in advance. Each building has 3 floors. He originally planned to open up the ground floor to open a Chinese medicine clinic."

"Wow~~~"

Lin Sanqi was shocked again. It was Yau Ma Tei.

Although Lin Sanqi had never been to Hong Kong in either era, anyone who has watched Hong Kong movies knows that Yau Ma Tei, Yau Tsim Mong, Portland Street, Tsim Sha Tsui and other places are the most prosperous areas in Kowloon and are also places that various community groups must compete for.

Owning three properties in such a prosperous neighborhood, the Lin family can just sit back and relax.

So the question is, why didn't Comrade Lao Lin take his family to the south in 49, but instead came to the north?

When Lin Sanqi asked the question in his mind, Lin Kucan could only smile bitterly:

"We, a family of five, left at the drop of a hat, but our Lin family was a large family with hundreds of people. What would they do if we left? And the propaganda at that time was to let bygones be bygones and build a new China. I hesitated and stayed.

At that time, I still had a chance to leave, and I was already at the train station, but I was too famous at the time, and the country was in urgent need of medical talents, so, ahem, I couldn't leave. Since I couldn't leave, I might as well take the initiative, donate my property and bring you to the north. "

Lin Sanqi understood. No wonder Comrade Lao Lin became one of the first famous Chinese medicine practitioners in the country to come to Beijing.

Fortunately, the old man was sensible, otherwise, look at those 12 ignorant old national treasures. If they hadn’t met this great man, Lin Sanqi, they would definitely have to go to the fields to do farm work now.

"Dad, you suddenly told me about Xiangjiang. Is there a reason?"

Lin Kucan took a deep breath:

"I want to tell you that if you are unhappy in China, you can consider going to Hong Kong. According to tradition, I gave the ancestral home in Huadu to your eldest brother, but I can divide the three properties in Hong Kong equally among the three of you brothers without favoritism.

In 48, I sold all my investments in Huadu except the small house, and deposited all my savings at home, a total of 20 US dollars in HSBC Bank. In addition, I also had some money from the rent collected from Xiangjiang Properties over the years.

The money and the house together are enough for you three brothers to have a comfortable life. Xiaoqi, your mother and I are old, and we just want our children and grandchildren to be safe and to continue the incense of our Lin family.

Your eldest brother is too honest. If he goes to Hong Kong, he will be easily eaten up. Your second brother is too smart. If he gets the money and the house, I'm afraid the other brothers will have nothing to do. He is not a good choice.

So what I mean is that I want you to go to Hong Kong. You are so cunning, you must have a way to get there. Your fifth uncle and sixth uncle went there to scout for you. Don't worry, I have brought them with me since I was a child, you can trust them. "

Can Lin Sanqi leave? Can he leave the country? (End of this chapter)
