A doctor who travels through two eras

Yushu, in front of the Cordyceps Market.

The market’s gate frame is built in Tibetan style, with a red banner in the middle with “China’s No. 1 Magical Herb” written in black letters.

At the top of the door frame is a huge Cordyceps sinensis model, more than ten meters long, which looks very spectacular under the blue sky and white clouds.

"Lin Sanqi, come here quickly, let's take a picture."

Although Yin Lianyi came here under the name of a business inspection, she knew the inside story and knew that this inspection was just a formality and there was no KPI assessment at all, so she was in a very relaxed mood and treated it completely as a trip.

At the entrance of this quaint market, Lin Sanqi stood there. Yin Lianyi hugged Lin Sanqi's arm, raised one leg, stretched out two fingers and made a happy and cute gesture.

Meng Peng held the phone: "Come on, Tian Qi..."

Although Lin Tianhua looked smiling, he was actually a little worried.

Although Lin Sanqi is his boss and Yin Lianyi is his subordinate, they also have another identity: Lin Sanqi is his nephew, and Yin Lianyi is the daughter of Pingle Village.

Shilou Village and Pingle Village have not intermarried for 100 years. If the two people officially announce it, will it trigger a new war between the two villages?
Lin Tianhua said he didn't dare to think about it, he didn't dare to think about it at all. He was afraid that he, the person who knew the truth but didn't report it, would be the first one to be beaten to death by the clan leader at the gate of the ancestral hall.

"Okay, distinguished guests from Dongguang Province, now that we have finished taking photos, let's go take a look inside the market."

The young man introduced was from a local travel agency, named Jiaba, and was hired this time to be a local tour guide.

Lingnan Hall is now a well-known name in the Cordyceps market, and everyone who is engaged in the Cordyceps industry knows about it.

After all, the company that has monopolized the high-end Cordyceps market in Dongguan Province, Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia is Lingnantang, a company that suddenly emerged from nowhere. It is not an exaggeration to call it the "King of Cordyceps in South China".

The key is that in the entire domestic Cordyceps market, no one knows where Lingnan Hall’s Cordyceps comes from. This is the biggest question hanging over everyone’s head.

Of course, judging from the appearance of Lingnan Hall’s Cordyceps, everyone is certain that it comes from Yushu or Nagqu, but they just can’t find out who sells it.

If we can’t find out who sold the products, then every vendor in the market is a suspect.

The three major domestic Cordyceps distribution companies have plowed the field over and over again, but have not been able to find out which Cordyceps farmer was so bold as to do so.

With Lingnan Tang's trend of occupying the South China market in half a year, it will not take long before it can completely occupy the entire domestic high-end Cordyceps market, which is something the three major Cordyceps distributors cannot tolerate.

Lin Tianhua was afraid that someone would play a trick on him and cause a dump truck to run out of control on the road, so he came to Yushu incognito this time, and the Lingnan Hall group entered as tourists.

Director Qiangba is still working hard as a tour guide:

"Friends in Dongguan, the scale of the Cordyceps Trading Market that is now in front of you is quite large. It is the largest professional wholesale market in Yushu, with more than 270 shops specializing in Cordyceps trading, with a total area of ​​more than 2 square meters.

This is just the normal season. If it is the peak season every year, there will be at least thousands of buyers coming from all over the country. If the shops are not enough, they will set up stalls outside to buy goods. It will definitely be crowded and very spectacular. "

Yin Lianyi took pictures with her phone and asked curiously:
"Guide, when is the peak season for Cordyceps?"

"Oh, that's right. We have a specific season for harvesting cordyceps here. Generally, the fresh cordyceps season is from May to August every year, and the cordyceps harvested are all unprocessed cordyceps. The post-season cordyceps season is from September every year to April of the following year, and all the cordyceps are dried.

You are here at the right time. Look, there are so many people in this market. These customers are generally from hospitals, pharmacies, and pharmaceutical factories. The annual transaction volume of this market alone reaches more than 30 billion. You are making a fortune. This is all gold. "

It can be seen that the tour guide Qiangba is very jealous of the Cordyceps business.

"Come, distinguished guests from Dongguang Province, you can come and have a look. This is our Yushu Cordyceps. How is it? Is it big enough? Do you want to buy some?"

A common problem among directors is that they want tourists to shop.

Lin Sanqi, Lin Tianhua, Yin Lianyi, Meng Qiang, Lin Jianghe, the future Northwest branch manager who had just arrived at Qinghai, and the driver and bodyguard all gathered around.

The owner of the Cordyceps shop took a look and dumped the whole bag of Cordyceps on the table:
"Boss, take a look. This is the best Cordyceps from Yushu. Look, is it big? It's second-class, very rare."

The boss introduced it proudly, and Lin Sanqi and the others shook their heads after watching:
"That's it?"

Lingnan Hall sells Cordyceps. After seeing their own 18cm Cordyceps, these tiny Cordyceps are far from satisfying the appetite of the people in Lingnan Hall.

The boss was a little unhappy when he saw the disdainful expressions of the others:

"Hey, you think it's too small? We have bigger ones too, but you may not be able to afford the bigger ones."

Lin Tianhua stopped the others and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, we can't afford it. Sorry, let's go look somewhere else."

The tour guide Qiangba thought that these tourists really couldn't afford it, so he quickly explained:

"In recent years, the cordyceps market has become increasingly polarized. First-class or special-quality cordyceps are becoming less and less available, and the price is also getting more and more expensive. This year's price has increased by 5 yuan compared to last year.

But the price of small Cordyceps is falling every year, which may be related to the fact that more and more Cordyceps are planted. Most of the markets we visit now are low-end Cordyceps, and the high-end Cordyceps are taken away as soon as they are dug out of the ground. "

Lin Sanqi and his companions walked from one store to another. It would be more accurate to say that they were looking at the shops rather than the Cordyceps.

It can be seen that the market is indeed very prosperous, with people coming and going. In addition to dealers from all over the country, there are also many people dressed as ordinary herdsmen holding bags of Cordyceps to sell to various stores.

Of course, the herdsmen are also very experienced. They put the big ones in one group and the small ones in another, and they don’t mix them together.

The transaction was still done in a primitive way, with a sleeve loop and two people using their hands to indicate the transaction. No one knew the specific transaction price, making it very mysterious.

Lin Sanqi and Lin Tianhua looked around at the same time, observing whether there was anyone watching or observing these herdsmen while they were trading.

Fortunately, everything is normal.

This shows that such transactions are very common in this wholesale market, or are one of the mainstream trading methods.

Now that transportation is convenient, herders are more willing to take a day or two by car to the city market to sell their products, rather than selling them in the fields to small buyers on motorcycles.

Everyone can learn.

Lin Sanqi thought of another time and space. In 59, no one was interested in Yushu Cordyceps and no one bought it. It was all eaten by cattle and sheep as grass.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi calculated the time. In another time and space, it seemed that he was about to set off for Yushu again.

Lin Tianhua touched Lin Sanqi at this time and reminded him:
"I think it's feasible to build a storefront in this market and use smokescreen to buy Cordyceps. There's a lot of traffic here, and I see quite a lot of herders bringing Cordyceps to trade."

Lin Sanqi nodded and told Lin Jianghe beside him:
"Brother He, your main task in the future is to open a store in this market and purchase cordyceps. You can also sell some low-end cordyceps. The supply company will provide it to you."

Lin Sanqi thought that he had also purchased a lot of low-end Cordyceps from another era, which could just be shipped wholesale.

After all, Lingnan Hall only produces high-quality products. There is no use for low-end Cordyceps, so it is better to sell them in packages. Because of the large quantity, the total amount is a huge amount of money.

Lin Jianghe had been a professional manager and had experience in business. He also knew Lin Sanqi's plan, so he smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Qizi, there is no job easier than this. To be honest, I feel unworthy of a salary of 100 million yuan a year."

Lin Tianhua went to instruct:
"Not only should you stay in this market, you should also visit the main Cordyceps producing areas occasionally, giving people the impression that you are always secretly purchasing Cordyceps outside. You can then hire a few bodyguards, after all, the northwest region is not very safe."

Lin Sanqi also worried:
"You can buy any car you want. You can buy any model. The company will reimburse you. For bodyguards, please hire retired military personnel. These people are highly skilled and will not run away at critical moments. The company will also reimburse them. When our Lin family members go out, safety comes first."

The land is vast and the population is sparse. It's not just a saying. If they kill you, they will just dig a hole and bury you. You can only be treated as a missing person.

The Northwest is not like the big coastal cities where there are surveillance cameras everywhere. With Skynet and big data analysis, criminals basically can't escape.

Lingnan Hall had touched other people's cheese, so it was afraid that someone would do something bad and retaliate.

Lin Hai in the Northeast branch also has three bodyguards protecting him 3 hours a day to prevent anyone from doing something desperate.

Lin Jianghe chuckled and said, "Okay, I have no problem with Uncle Shi and Qizi's arrangement."

As Lin Tianhua walked, he continued to explain:

"You have to withdraw cash from the bank frequently, just like Lin Hai, and pretend that it is the money to buy Cordyceps. Then you have to deposit it in other banks, and make fake accounts of buying Cordyceps every day, using formal invoices.

In addition, we will regularly get a batch of Cordyceps King-level Cordyceps from Huadu. You can deliberately show off in front of others, pretending that you bought it yourself, and then pretend to pack and ship it to Huadu. It would be best if everyone in the market knows about it.”

Lin Jianghe patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Shi, I'm an expert at cooking the books. Haha, it's just acting."

Lin Tianhua listened and became more serious:

"I asked you to falsify the accounts to acquire the fake accounts. Don't falsify the accounts on funds and taxes. We Lin family members must make money in an upright way. As long as you do a good job, Qizi and I will not treat you unfairly. Do you understand?"

The Lin family has always had good family education. Anyone who does something wrong will be forced to kneel down in the ancestral hall and in serious cases will be expelled from the family tree. This is very deterrent.

Lin Jianghe almost trembled after hearing this:
"Qizi, Uncle Shi, don't worry. No matter how much of a jerk I am, I will never do anything to my family."

Lin Sanqi also agreed with his uncle's warning. In front of money, family is of no importance. Human nature cannot stand the test, except for one's own parents.

……

……

Traveling from 2023 to the back garden of the princess's mansion in 1960.

Lin Sanqi changed back into the clothes of this era, and then sat on the steps at the door and began to adjust to the time difference. Although the two eras were both called China, the customs and manners were completely different. In addition, the most important thing was that the memories of both sides had to be reconnected, which was the most troublesome.

Just like a mobile phone, it needs to be started again and again. One is an Android system and the other is an Apple system. Although they are both mobile phones, the contents are different.

At this time, the courtyard door opened, and Jin Caifeng walked in alone. She was a little surprised to see her youngest son sitting there:

"Qizi, when did you come back? Why didn't you come to the middle courtyard to tell me?"

Lin Sanqi stood up quickly: "Mom, I just came back too. I'm tired and want to sit down and rest. What are you doing?"

Jin Caifeng pointed at the seedlings on the ground and introduced them as if they were treasures:

"No, I turned the empty spaces on both sides into vegetable gardens. It just so happens that there is a well in your yard that has not dried up. It is the best to use it to water the vegetables. Look, this is the cabbage that has just been planted, this is the radish, and this is the cucumber..."

Lin Sanqi chuckled and said, "Mom, aren't you afraid of making mistakes? Be careful not to get your tail cut off."

Jin Caifeng gently hit her youngest son and said, "Go, grow your own food, what's the mistake? Don't scare your mother."

Seeing that the gate was closed and no one would disturb him, Lin Sanqi quickly took out two plates of snacks from inside the house:
"Mom, here, this is a wife cake and this is a pineapple bun, try them quickly."

Jin Caifeng was used to her youngest son taking out strange things from time to time, so she didn't intend to ask more questions, so she picked up a pineapple bun and took a bite:
"Well, this pineapple bun is fragrant and sweet, and tastes exactly the same as the one in Hong Kong."

Lin Sanqi thought to himself that the wife of the wealthy family was indeed knowledgeable. This pineapple bun was not something he brought back from Hong Kong in 2023. It was also considered one of Hong Kong's specialties.

"Auntie, try this Yuen Long wife cake and see if it tastes authentic."

Jin Caifeng took it and took a bite. Eating delicious food always makes people happy. The old lady felt a lot more relaxed:

"Delicious, delicious. I haven't had this kind of southern snack in all my years in the north. By the way, how are you and Xiao Yezi doing? When are you planning to get married?"

Lin Sanqi was a little speechless. Eating a wife cake could be related to asking for a wife.

"Don't worry, mom. Xiao Yezi and I are doing fine. She has taken those 12 old national treasures as her teachers and is busy studying every day. Is Dad in good health now that he has returned from Changping?"

"No problem. Your father is a Chinese medicine practitioner. He can take care of himself. He's fine. Oh, by the way, I remembered something."

The mother and son were eating cakes and chatting. At this time, Jin Caifeng put down the cakes:
"Has Xiao Yezi's father been diagnosed with tuberculosis before?"

Lin Sanqi was confused: "Yes, Chinese medicine said it was tuberculosis. Later, I went to the Union Hospital for an X-ray and it was confirmed to be tuberculosis."

Jin Caifeng was still a little puzzled: "Did you really cure her father's tuberculosis?"

Lin Sanqi said proudly:

"Of course. If I hadn't cured her father's terminal illness, Pan Ye wouldn't have fallen for my Dacron pants, haha."

Jin Caifeng nodded her son's head and said, "You are nothing like your father, smooth-talking."

In fact, Lin Sanqi never said this. If he hadn't cured Professor Pan's tuberculosis, how could Pan Ye be so easily won over? How could he follow him wholeheartedly?
Lin Sanqi has already seen that Pan Ye has a soft personality. Although he has attended university, his thoughts are still very traditional. She would not object if he wanted to marry several concubines.

After all, although Professor Pan did not marry a concubine, Grandpa Pan married four wives, and several of Pan Ye’s uncles also had concubines.

Girls coming from such large mansions are not averse to concubines, and even believe that having more children means more blessings, and that marrying more concubines and having more children are necessary for the continuation of the family line.

There were also strong-willed girls who truly rejected concubines and were determined to break with their feudal families, but they all ran away to northern Shaanxi instead of staying in Beijing to study.

Therefore, Lin Sanqi was very satisfied with Pan Ye and felt that he could control this future wife and soft persimmon.

"Mom, why are you suddenly asking me if I can cure tuberculosis?"

"Why else? Someone wants to save your life. Yesterday, the National Peking Opera Company started a three-day performance at its Changping branch. Two famous actors in the Peking Opera Company are suffering from tuberculosis, and one of them is so sick that he can't go on stage.

Originally, these two celebrities wanted to ask Dean Shen to see their illness, but Dean Shen recommended you. Then, they found out that you were on a business trip and were worried about it. They were asking around the world about where you were. "

"Oh, the Peking Opera Theater is here. Why don't you go to Changping to watch Peking Opera?"

"Many people from our hospital have rushed to Changping, but I still have Jiageng and Zhenzhen to take care of, so I can't go."

There are too few entertainment activities these days. In addition, now is a difficult time, and opera programs, one of the representatives of decadent music, have also been restricted, so there are very few performances even in the theaters in the city.

In an age without television, very little radio, no performances in theatres, no mobile phones, no entertainment magazines and newspapers, life was quite dull and boring.

There might be a power outage at night, so I can't even read. There's really no other entertainment except making little figures.

A bachelor like Lin Sanqi, who has no wife and a bad temper, can only trouble Fifth Girl again and again, which is extremely detrimental to his physical and mental development.

Others go to the theatre if they have the conditions, and if they don't, they create the conditions to go to the theatre. Lin Sanqi's conditions are much better than others. He has a car and convenient transportation, so he naturally won't let his family down.

"Mom, let's go. I'll take you to Changping. You can sleep in my dormitory at night. The pit is big enough."

Jin Caifeng was delighted when she heard this: "Okay, I'll go get your dad, and bring Jiageng and Zhenzhen with me, and we'll go together."

Two hours later, the jeep arrived at the entrance of Ming Tombs Town and could not go any further.

Because the road was full of pedestrians, bicycles, donkey carts, ox carts, etc., everyone was heading in only one direction, which was to the east towards the small palace gate of the Ming Tombs, which is the direction of the Changping branch of the Chinese Medicine Hospital.

Lin Sanqi knew at a glance that these farmers from Changping and surrounding areas were all rushing to listen to the opera.

This was the first time that the National Peking Opera Company performed in Changping. It could only be described as a grand occasion. Traffic was directly blocked, and this dirt road was the only main road to the Ming Tombs.

"Well, the car can't go there, so we have to walk."

When the Lin family arrived at the Changping branch, they found that the scene was already filled with loud gongs and drums, firecrackers, waving red flags, and huge crowds of people.

The stage was set up directly on the main road, cutting off the only main road in the middle. The main road was the main area of ​​the auditorium, and the farmlands on both sides were all filled with people.

You can also see that all the local militia in Changping have been mobilized to maintain order.

Lin Sanqi was holding Lin Zhenzhen, while Lin Kucan and Jin Caifeng each held their eldest grandson Lin Jiageng tightly with one hand. They tried hard to squeeze forward, and every step forward seemed very difficult.

Lin Sanqi wondered if the scene at Wusong Wharf was the same in 49?

Can I use my old ticket to board your broken ship?
Fortunately, Shao Lecheng, the chief of the security department who was standing on a high place to command, discovered Lin Sanqi's family in the crowd in time. No one could be squeezed to death, but the God of Wealth of the Chinese Medicine Hospital could be crushed.

After a while, four security staff members in green military uniforms came over to help, and Lin Sanqi and his family successfully passed through the crowd and came to the bottom of the stage.

After all, the Chinese medicine hospital paid for and provided salaries to invite the troupe, so they gave them preferential treatment. A circle was set up at the C position in the audience seats, with benches inside, and only the staff of the Chinese medicine hospital were allowed to enter.

After the Lin family sat down, Jin Caifeng wiped the sweat off her forehead as if she was afraid.

"Wow, how many people have come here? I think there are more than 10. There are people everywhere in the mountains. They are here just to watch the show."

Lin Kucan smiled and said, "We have all come here from the city. Do you think it is necessary?"

Jin Caifeng smiled embarrassedly:

"It's a pity that this is Peking opera. It would be better if it was Cantonese opera. Last time Qizi went to Huadu on a business trip, he ran into Hong Xiannü performing. He took a photo and showed it to me. I think I was really lucky."

Lin Zhenzhen disagreed: "Grandma, Peking Opera is nice."

Jin Caifeng kissed her granddaughter and said, "You guys don't even know our hometown opera. You have forgotten your roots~~"

Lin Sanqi hummed another Peking opera:
"Grandma, listen to me. I have countless cousins. They never come to visit unless it's important. Although they are relatives and never recognize each other, they are closer than relatives~~~"

Jin Caifeng looked at her youngest son with a bit of surprise:
"Hey, son, which Peking Opera piece is this? Why haven't I heard it before? It's really nice. Isn't it true? Your uncle sings really well."

Lin Sanqi thought, in a few years, you will be able to hear it every day until you vomit.

At this time, Pan Ye also saw the Lin family arrive, and quickly squeezed over to greet his future parents-in-law:

"Uncle Lin, hello Auntie, Jiageng is so nice, Sanqi, when did you come back?"

Lin Kucan smiled and nodded, while Jin Caifeng enthusiastically pulled Pan Ye to sit next to her and began to ask about her well-being, obviously very satisfied with her future daughter-in-law.

Lin Sanqi quietly stuffed a box of wife cakes into Pan Ye's hands:

"You can eat it while watching the show later. This is Yuen Long Wife Cake. My mom said that if you eat it, you can become my wife sooner."

Lin Jiageng and Lin Zhenzhen covered their mouths and started laughing, and Pan Ye blushed again.

"By the way, did the masters come out to watch the show?"

"Noisy, over there, Dean Shen has specially arranged a place for them."

Lin Sanqi stood up and took a look. He saw 12 old men hiding pitifully in the corner and no one cared about them. It was obvious that those who made mistakes would have to stand aside. How could they get any preferential treatment?
Lin Sanqi sighed secretly, put on a smile, took out a bag of cakes from his backpack and squeezed over. (End of this chapter)
