A doctor who travels through two eras

In the office of Lingnan Hall Chinese Medicine Clinic on Kowloon Temple Street.

Unlike the veterans who had to risk their lives to reach Hong Kong, the Lin family arrived at their "home" in Kowloon that same day, and the whole family received their Hong Kong identity cards the next day.

From then on, the Lin family officially became Hong Kong people, and when they return to the mainland in the future, they will be in the name of Hong Kong businessmen.

Today, the men in the Lin family gathered together to hold a formal family meeting.

Lin Kucan was sitting in the boss chair, while the two brothers Lin Hongcan and Lin Xuancan were sitting together on the sofa outside, and the three of them were smoking.

Lin Gancao, Lin Duzhong and Lin Panax notoginseng sat on stools. They were the younger generations and had no right to sit on an equal footing with their elders. The people of Dongguan were very particular about the rules.

As for Uncle Lin Wu and Uncle Lin Liu’s sons, they were all minors and could not participate in the family meeting.

At this time, a financial staff member came in, put two boxes of account books on the table, and then went out and closed the door.

Uncle Lin Wu stood up and explained:

"Brother, here are two sets of account books, one is the account book of Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic, and the other is the account book of the pharmaceutical factory.

When we first opened the clinic, we used the money we had accumulated from rent payments made by our eldest brother over the years. We also used the rent payments to pay for our living expenses when we first arrived in Hong Kong.

The Chinese medicine clinic was not profitable when it first opened. Later, after Qizi provided four secret prescription medicines, the clinic's business slowly picked up. It has been booming until now, with a constant stream of patients, and the clinic started to make a lot of money.

So far, after deducting all costs and labor expenses, the clinic has a surplus of 760844.30 yuan. Brother, this is the account book. I remember every account myself. Please audit it. "

Lin Kucan has always been a very Buddhist person in Peking. He is usually a smiling and nice guy who doesn't care about anyone.

But after returning to his hometown Huadu, Lin Sanqi found that his father instantly regained his confidence, his eyes were full of light, and he began to look like the patriarch of a large family.

It is estimated that during the past 12 years in Pingbei, he has been carefully hiding himself, giving people a false impression and avoiding being affected by various movements.

In fact, Lin Sanqi didn’t even think about the fact that on the first day he traveled to this era in 1959, Lin Kucan presided over the division of the family.

He simply divided the property into four parts, even blocking the door with bricks, and asked each of them to manage his own household and avoid conflicts among the brothers in a timely manner.

Dividing the family is the most important event in the family.

If he is a Buddhist old man who is confused about his life, how can he be so quick and decisive in killing?
Lin Kucan put out his cigarette, patted the thick account book, and said:
"Fifth brother, you know my rules back then. Brothers are brothers and business is business. So I taught you to keep the first account well since you were young. I am very happy that you insisted on keeping the accounts when I was away.

I won't look at this account book, I have absolute trust in my own brother. But I have to let Gancao look through it, so that he can learn the ins and outs of running a pharmacy through the account book, after all, he is the eldest son, and Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic will definitely belong to him in the future.

But don't worry, fifth and sixth brothers, I called you to Hong Kong, I can't kick you out after I come. So my idea is that you can help at home for the next few years. You are unfamiliar with the place, and our family cannot be separated.

When I let go of the clinic and let Gan Cao take over, I will open a Chinese medicine clinic of your own in Hong Kong for each of you, and run it completely independently, and all expenses will be borne by me as your big brother."

According to the tradition of a large family, the eldest son or the head of the family will inherit the family property.

For example, the name "Lingnan Hall" can only be inherited and used by the head of the family.

Even if other brothers split up and opened a clinic, they could not use the name "Lingnan Hall" and could only use other hall names.

If other family members insist on using the name "Lingnan Hall", they can only exist as a "semicolon", which means they will be subject to the leadership and exploitation of the head office and will have no autonomy.

Therefore, Lin Kucan opened a clinic for each of his two younger brothers and let them run it independently. In fact, this was to divide the family property among them, to help them get started and to give them a boost, which was more beneficial to the two younger brothers.

Lin Kucan continued at this time:
"There is one more thing. Now my three sons have come to Xiangjiang. When we divided the family, we agreed that each son would have one of the three buildings in Xiangjiang. So today, Gancao, Duzhong, and Qizi are all here. We have discussed this matter. Building No. 1 belongs to Gancao, Building No. 2 belongs to Duzhong, and Building No. 3 belongs to Qizi. Whether you live in it yourself or rent it out, your father will not take care of it. All the income belongs to your own small family.

Of course, the eldest son takes care of his parents, so your mother and I plan to live in Building No. 1, where your eldest brother lives."

This was something that had been discussed in Peking several years ago. Lin Gancao, Lin Eucommia, and Lin Panax notoginseng had no objections.

But at this moment, according to common sense, Uncle Lin Wu and Uncle Lin Liu would be furious, because their two families now live upstairs.

With the Lin family's division of property, they had no place to stay.

Even if they want to stay, they still have to pay rent to their nephew, right?

The key point is not the rent, but the frustration of having a big house come to Hong Kong and immediately kick them out.

But Uncle Lin Wu and Uncle Lin Liu kept their expressions unchanged, and watched the eldest brother's family divide the property with a smile. They were confident that the eldest brother would not ignore them.

As expected, after Lin Kucan divided up the houses, he turned around and said to his two younger brothers and three sons:
"Now that I'm here, the clinic is under my management, so the clinic's surplus will not be distributed to you. I have the final say on how to spend it. Otherwise, the words of an old man with no money and no house will be of no use to me."

Hehehe~~~Everyone in the room started laughing.

"I decided that since I had HK$76 in my account and US$20 in HSBC, I decided to buy a building for each of my fifth and sixth brothers, and I would pay for the house.

This way, my brothers and sisters will have their own houses and they will feel more comfortable. You two can find out which building to buy. But it’s better to be in Kowloon so that we brothers can take care of each other.”

Lin Hongcan laughed and said sincerely:
"Brother, don't worry. The pharmaceutical factory we co-founded with Qizi is making money now. We have dividends, and it won't be long before we can buy our own house. You see, my sixth brother and I have grown up, and we can't rely on you for everything."

Lin Kucan looked at the two brothers he had raised lovingly, as if they were half his sons:
"You make money based on your own abilities, but since I brought you to Hong Kong, I must be responsible for you. I bought this house while I still have some ability. When Gancao and the others take over, I won't be able to do anything even if I want to."

Lin Hongcan and Lin Xuancan knew their eldest brother's temper, so they smiled and nodded in agreement.

When the three brothers in Huadu were still fighting for a small Western-style house, the two brothers in Xiangjiang had already gotten a building and a clinic. This is because of different understandings, different circumstances, and greatly different destinies.

Lin Kucan then thought:
"Oh, right, there's also the matter of the pharmaceutical factory. Qizi has already told me about it. Gancao and Eucommia are here today, so let's talk it out."

Speaking of money, Lin Duzhong's ears perked up. Today was the second official division of the family property, and also the last one. He was afraid that he would suffer a loss.

“The money to invest in the pharmaceutical factory was all contributed by Qizi alone, and the four prescriptions were also contributed by one of you, my younger brother. My money and the prescriptions handed down from our Lin family were not used.

The current equity distribution of the pharmaceutical factory is 60% for Qizi and 20% each for your fifth and sixth uncles.

Even if we go to Hong Kong, the equity will not change. This pharmaceutical factory belongs to your fifth uncle, sixth uncle and seventh uncle. It is not a public account. You two brothers should understand this. It is not your father's partiality. "

Lin Gancao quickly expressed his opinion: "Father, I understand, I have no objection."

Lin Duzhong was dumbfounded when he heard this. He originally thought that the pharmaceutical factory also belonged to his father and was public property, so he could get a share as an inheritance in the future. Now his hopes were dashed.

Of course, he did not doubt his father's words. After all, he saw with his own eyes Lin Sanqi take out 200 million US dollars and 1000 million Hong Kong dollars in the Huadu Parade Ground.

So he could only weakly say: "I know..."

Lin Sanqi is not a saint, so he would not say that the pharmaceutical factory should belong to the family collectively. He also has to consider his and Pan Ye’s children and leave a portion of the property for his own small family. (End of this chapter)
