Chapter 270: Cooperation and Apologizing
Mid-to-late December 1984, Harbin Institute of Technology Affiliated Hospital.

When Wang Shoucheng was sent here, his face was blue, probably because of the cold weather.

Along the way, even with the help of braziers and a large number of quilts, animal skins, etc. to help keep warm, it was still very cold.

Because he fell and injured his head, no one knew what happened.

So when I drove him here, the journey was more than 400 kilometers, and I drove relatively slowly.

After all, it’s icy and snowy, and we’re afraid the car will slip.

Therefore, the original five-hour drive took more than eight hours.

But there is no other way, what can I do?

Everyone felt helpless.

Wang Duoyu arrived at the hospital around ten o'clock in the evening. After staying for a while, the doctor came out of the emergency room.

"How's the doctor?"

There were a lot of people standing at the door. If Wang Duoyu hadn't spoken up and sent some people back, there would be at least thirty or forty people in the corridor.

But even so, everyone was talking at once, making the scene very noisy.

"Stop making noise, be quiet!"

After scolding them, and waiting for them to quiet down, Wang Duoyu looked at the doctor and said:

"Excuse me, doctor, how is my elder brother now?"

"Professor Wang, the patient's condition is not optimistic. I have temporarily treated him, but intracranial hemorrhage surgery is definitely not possible here in Ice City."

After hearing the doctor's words, Wang Xiangtong and others became excited and their faces turned extremely pale.

Wang Duoyu's face also turned gloomy. This matter was a bit difficult to deal with.

Just by hearing the four words "intracranial hemorrhage", Wang Duoyu knew it was very serious. Even if the patient was not a 63-year-old man, it would be very difficult to deal with such an injury.

The doctor also explained that the surgical equipment, doctor skills, experience, etc. can only be provided in Beijing, and are not so available in Ice City.

In this case, the only option now is to transfer the patient to another hospital.

Once it involves transferring to another hospital, it is no longer a trivial matter.

All I can say is that Wang Duoyu has some connections, but not many.

Things like birth, old age, sickness, death and injury are the same for everyone, because all beings are equal.

At this time, it depends on who has better luck and who has a better medical team.

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

After the other party finished speaking, Wang Duoyu expressed his gratitude with a calm expression.

"We will arrange it as soon as possible. Doctor, please help."

"You're welcome, Professor Wang. This is my job."

Wang Duoyu did not continue to be polite, but turned around and started to make arrangements.

When his eldest brother brought him over in the evening, he had already asked Wang Xiangqian and others to test their blood types. All those with the same blood type as his eldest brother had to go to the capital with him.

After making the arrangements, Wang Duoyu called Su Zongxi of Air China.

"Professor Wang, we can't take off at night."

"How is it possible that it can't take off?"

Hearing Su Zongxi's words, Wang Duoyu frowned immediately.

He had always said that he wanted to have Northern Airlines pilots conduct test flights so that they could deal with any unexpected situations.

It’s just like now, when we need a plane urgently and are waiting to use it to save lives, but Su Zongxi just says: It can’t be used!

Wang Duoyu was almost mad to death!

"Please inform the pilots that all pilots who can carry out this flight mission should gather at the airport immediately. I am waiting for the plane to save my life."

Wang Duoyu gave the order in a cold voice:

"I don't care what method you use, you must accomplish this. If you can't, I will report this to the leadership of the Civil Aviation Administration and recommend that they remove you from your position."

Su Zongxi on the other end of the phone suddenly broke out in cold sweat and his expression turned pale.

Although he is the chief executive of Northern Airlines and one of the persons in charge, if Wang Duoyu really makes suggestions to the Civil Aviation Administration, then Li Zhongxi, the leader of the Civil Aviation Administration, will definitely be the first to remove him from his position.

There is no room for negotiation.

Not to mention that Heilongjiang capital invested 100 million US dollars in the purchase of six aircraft for Northern Airlines, accounting for 70% of the shares, while the Civil Aviation Administration only holds 30% of the shares.

For example, the First Department of Harbin Institute of Technology spent another 747 million US dollars to purchase two Boeing aircraft, which were registered under the name of Northern Airlines.

It can be said that the biggest boss of the entire Northern Airlines is actually Harbin Institute of Technology.

The top, second-in-command and third-in-command of Harbin Institute of Technology were not Wang Duoyu. He was even just a professor in the Department of Mathematics of Harbin Institute of Technology.

But there is a reason why Wang Duoyu is called the local emperor of Harbin Institute of Technology behind his back.

As the three giants of Harbin Institute of Technology, Liu Deben, Lu Gongliang and Han Jue would definitely not ignore Wang Duoyu's opinions. There were even rumors that they had all been scolded by Wang Duoyu, and they were the ones who took the initiative to "report their work" to Wang Duoyu.

Harbin Institute of Technology is what it is today all because of Wang Duoyu.

In an era centered on economic development, being able to make money and earn foreign exchange is the most awesome thing.

Wang Duoyu just happens to have the nickname of the Midas Touch, and it seems that he has never failed, not even once.

So it is understandable that everyone obeys his orders.

Even though Liu Deben and the others privately complained about Wang Duoyu's excessive concern for his safety, such as asking Northern Airlines to conduct a six-month route test flight, they would not let these words reach Wang Duoyu's ears.

Su Zongxi only learned about all of the above after he became the head of Northern Airlines.

So Su Zongxi didn't doubt what Wang Duoyu said just now at all.

"Okay, Professor Wang, I'll make arrangements right away to ensure the plane takes off smoothly." He immediately lowered his head and followed the order.

Dudu!

Before he could finish his words, the person on the other end of the phone hung up, but Su Zongxi didn't dare to say anything.

Wang Duoyu hung up the phone with a very serious expression.

Planes can't take off at night?
What kind of fallacy is this?
It is true that in the dark, the visibility is not that good when the plane takes off, and it is also difficult to align with the runway when landing.

Especially in this day and age, there is no airport navigation light system, so it is really difficult for the plane to land.

But in addition to this so-called airport navigation light system, the aircraft also has an instrument landing system and an automatic landing system to ensure a safe landing, and it does not rely on the pilot's naked eye vision to align the aircraft with the runway for landing.

Let’s talk about the instrument landing system first. It uses two beams of radio signals transmitted from the ground to provide localizer and glide path guidance, establishing a virtual path from the runway to the air.

The aircraft receives these signals through onboard equipment and determines its relative position to the path, thereby flying in the correct direction toward the runway and smoothly descending in altitude, ultimately achieving a safe landing.

The second is the automatic landing system. The technology of this thing is relatively complicated. It is provided with data by the onboard compressor, accelerometer, level, compass sensor, and ground radio directional beam. The computer system completes automatic landing based on the inertial navigation system.

Simply put, it is the ability to program a vectored flight path to successfully complete an automatic landing by providing data from a set of related auxiliary equipment and guiding a specific system programmed by a computer to allow for a straight and level flight from one fixed waypoint to another.

Wang Duoyu had previously participated in a dual-axis gyroscope drift test bench prototype project, which involved inertial navigation technology.

Today's computer technology is very advanced, and completing these two landing systems is no problem at all.

Otherwise, Boeing and Airbus would not be able to sell their aircraft at such high prices.

Therefore, what Su Zongxi said about not being able to take off at night is pure nonsense.

In the corridor, Wang Xiang and his companions were a little frightened when they saw Wang Duoyu's cold and angry face.

On weekdays, they always saw Uncle Jiu with a kind smile on his face, and they rarely saw him get angry.

Even if Wang Duoyu was occasionally seen getting annoyed and angry because of the naughty little boy Wang Junhong, it was not like this now.

After all, Wang Duoyu had never been so cold when he was angry with his son.

After finishing the call, Wang Duoyu made another round of arrangements and then told Wang Xiangdong and the others:

"Brothers, when you arrive in Beijing, someone will pick you up and you can go directly to Union Hospital."

"If you encounter anything on the road, you can call me. You all know my mobile phone number, and I will always keep an eye on it."

Wang Xiangdong and his brothers nodded heavily. They knew that whatever they said at this time would be false. The only real thing was to cure their father.

Soon, the affiliated hospital had made relevant preparations, and the doctor who had just been there, as well as several other doctors and nurses, also went to Yanjiagang Airport together.

They must have also gone to the capital together to ensure that Wang Shoucheng would not encounter any accidents on the way.

The symptoms of intracranial hemorrhage are extremely urgent and require careful attention.

However, Wang Duoyu did not go to Beijing with them, he just followed them to the airport.

Yanjiagang Airport is an airport that is usually open late at night and everyone has gone back to rest, but at this time, it is brightly lit.

Headlights are used on both sides of the airport runway to ensure that there is nothing else on the runway.

After all, it is dark now and it is difficult for pilots to see clearly ahead with the naked eye.

Even though it's freezing cold now, it stands to reason that no wild animals would suddenly appear on the runway, but no one can say for sure.

After watching the Boeing 737 take off smoothly, Wang Duoyu returned to the villa.

The next day, Wang Duoyu called Beijing. His nephew and others said that everything was fine at the moment, but no specific news had been received yet.

Well, it's still under surgery.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Duoyu had breakfast, went to the administrative building, and went straight to the secretary's office.

"Secretary, I think we in Ice City should promote the development of medical services."

What happened to his elder brother last night sounded the alarm for him.

There is no doubt that Beijing has the best medical care in the country.

Because Beijing not only has places like the Health Bureau, but also has Union Hospital, 301 Hospital, etc. These are places that gather the top medical standards in the country.

It would be a lie to say that Wang Duoyu was not at all jealous of these medical staff.

However, there is no point in being jealous, as no one else will come to Ice City.

Wang Duoyu knew this very well, so he planned to work hard to create a miracle and spend money to build a smooth road.

It is not easy to train medical personnel with top medical level. It takes a very long time.

But for medical equipment, you can spend money to buy some now, and other more advanced medical equipment can be purchased slowly.

"Duoyu, I know your brother's situation has made you very sad, but can you please stop being so impulsive? You should at least consider whether our Harbin Institute of Technology's bank account has enough balance."

Upon hearing this, Liu Deben immediately tried to persuade him earnestly.

He was very aware of how quickly Wang Duoyu spent money, and once these scientific research projects were mentioned, he would definitely have to cut a lot of money.

The problem is that Harbin Institute of Technology is facing a severe shortage of funds this year.

Two consecutive major projects almost drained all the accumulated funds of Harbin Institute of Technology this year.

Although the funds for the Dawn supercomputing project were not spent all at once.

But the funds in this project cannot be moved. Once there is no money, it will be troublesome.

"Secretary, I've thought it through clearly, and this time we're only targeting the Harbin Institute of Technology Affiliated Hospital, not other hospitals."

Wang Duoyu gave the other party a reassuring smile and said:

"The level of medical care in our Ice City, both in terms of software and hardware, is several levels behind that of the capital. So from now on, we should invest money, but we don't need to spend a lot."

"Henan Institute of Technology already has three majors: biomedical science, bioinformatics, and biopharmaceuticals. We can expand this by establishing a biomedical engineering department that incorporates several related key majors, including traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, and pharmacy."

"Although we have Harbin Medical University in Bingcheng, forget it. It's an external school, and we can't interfere with their scientific research projects. However, we can cooperate with them."

Harbin Institute of Technology had already established many science and engineering majors, including medical majors.

Although to be precise, medicine is not considered a science and engineering discipline, Harbin Institute of Technology has affiliated hospitals, so it is impossible to say that it does not have majors related to medicine.

However, Harbin Institute of Technology is not a school specializing in medicine, so there are only three medical majors, and all of them are more inclined towards the research of cutting-edge technologies such as biomedicine and genetics.

But now it seems that Wang Duoyu was too hasty before. He should have established all the disciplines related to the medical profession.

These majors include clinical medicine, basic medicine, preventive medicine, pharmacy, nursing and other directions.

However, if this is really done, we can basically set up a large medical school.

Of course, this is definitely the future development direction. After all, in the future, many colleges and universities’ departments will no longer be called departments, but colleges.

But when Liu Deben heard this, he couldn't help but frown and said:
"If we cooperate with Harbin Medical University, won't we be at a loss? Will we have to give them money?"

"How can you be so narrow-minded?"

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"Cooperation is a win-win situation. We can not only cooperate with Harbin Medical University, but also with top medical institutions in the country such as Union Hospital. We have money and they have people. Using their people to train our own students is a good thing, isn't it?"

The old and conservative thinking is unacceptable.

Cooperation is the best way.

After all, Wang Duoyu’s goal is to hope that Bingcheng can have the same medical level as Beijing. Although this hope is difficult to achieve, people still have to have dreams. What if it comes true?

Institutions with top medical standards must have a lot of software and hardware technologies, as well as top doctors.

To be honest, Wang Duoyu doesn’t care much about the research and development of medical equipment. Instead, the training of top doctors is what he values ​​most.

Because some of the top Chinese or Western medicine practitioners are really awesome. Even those old doctors who are well-versed in both Chinese and Western medicine, to be honest, are the best.

Although in the future, Wang Duoyu can fully rely on the Harbin Institute of Technology and Want Want Group, and when he is old, he will be able to recruit the world's top medical team to serve him.

But that is all in the future. If he had developed the affiliated hospital now, he could have pushed the medical level of Ice City to the same level as that of Beijing, or even higher.

Wouldn't that be better?

With a group of top-notch doctors surrounding him all day long, Wang Duoyu knew that he was probably not going to live long.

So the best situation is that there is a world-class hospital near his home, he himself has a regular diet and rest schedule, and has a healthy body.

Liu Deben: “.”

Well, what Wang Duoyu said makes sense anyway. By borrowing someone else's 'chicken' to lay eggs, the other party can get research and development funds. Both parties get what they need, so why not do it?

Yes, no one said no!
Especially in the current era where economic development is the center and reform and opening up are becoming more and more popular, the importance of money no longer needs to be elaborated.

Now is the era of money-oriented, and everyone is busy making money.

They also want to go to top universities such as Peking University and Tsinghua University every day to cry to their leaders, then take bags of money and engage in scientific research.

Whether it is Harbin Medical University or Beijing Union Hospital, these institutions will never reject scientific research cooperation projects from Harbin Institute of Technology.

Harbin Institute of Technology provides the money and they just need to do the work. This business is very profitable.

When Wang Duoyu came out of the secretary's office, he saw Su Zongxi. "Professor Wang, I'm sorry. Last night I..."

Su Zongxi came to take the blame and apologize to Wang Duoyu for what happened last night.

He really needs to reflect deeply on the fact that planes cannot take off at night.

Last night, pilot Shen Mingxuan, along with three other pilots, flew a Boeing 737 passenger plane, which took off smoothly from Yanjiagang Airport and landed smoothly at Beijing Nanyuan Airport.

Even when Shen Mingxuan received flight training from Boeing in the United States, he rarely performed night flights.

It’s not that Shen Mingxuan was unwilling, but Boeing did not arrange so many flights. Besides, half a year of flight training is not a very long time.

But even so, it is enough.

"Don't tell me you're sorry!"

Wang Duoyu stopped and said as he walked:
"You, Air China North, will encounter more emergencies in the future. What you need to do is to do a good job in this area, hold yourselves to high standards, take off safely, and deliver passengers to their destinations smoothly."

"Flying a plane is completely different from driving a car or a bicycle. In some ways, the requirements for flying a plane are even higher than those for being an astronaut, because if an airline has an accident, it would be a major mistake."

"Just as the Northern Airlines' order requires: All pilots are not allowed to drink alcohol. If they are found drinking, they will be fired immediately!"

"We just have to do our best within our control. Otherwise, why would I set such high salaries for these pilots?"

At Northern Airlines, pilots are not allowed to drink alcohol at any time, whether before or after a flight mission, when on leave at home, or even during the Spring Festival.

Because every six months, all pilots will undergo a very rigorous physical examination, if any value is detected to be low, it will definitely be found out.

It is very certain that drinking alcohol will damage your liver.

Therefore, even if you just have a few drinks, the instrument data analysis can detect it.

Only with strict management can Northern Airlines ensure that no accidents will occur.

It means exercising strict control in areas where humans can control, preventing dangers, and eliminating all accidents caused by human factors.

At Northern Airlines, all pilots' salaries range from 800 to 1,200 yuan depending on their level, and this salary will continue to rise in the next few years.

To be honest, this salary level is really not low.

The average monthly salary of many workers at Want Want Group is currently around 200 yuan, and has not increased significantly.

But even so, a salary of more than 200 yuan is a very high salary among ordinary people.

Therefore, pilots of Northern Airlines can get a monthly salary of at least 800 yuan, which is really very high.

With such high salaries, it is normal to have very high requirements.

Upon hearing this, Su Zongxi nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

"Go back! Stop hanging around in front of me and do your job. I've told you before that Northern Airlines has strict requirements. There must be absolutely no accidents. Zero accidents. You have to understand that if there is even one accident, the plane could be destroyed and everyone on board could die."

Wang Duoyu suddenly stopped, looked at the other party and said:

"It's not always possible to make an emergency landing on the Songhua River. Don't take any chances."

Wasn’t Guo Yonghuai buried in a cornfield one kilometer away from Nanyuan Airport?

If possible, he didn't want to die like this. After all, he was only 59 years old when he passed away.

Aren’t there enough examples of plane crashes?
Whenever there is a plane crash, the plane will be destroyed and all the people on board will die. There are very few other exceptions.

Last November, the flight that Wang Duoyu was on was able to successfully make an emergency landing in the Songhua River. That was just a burst of luck.

But that was just because the plane happened to hit a bird. No one wants this kind of accident, but no one can guarantee whether such an accident will suddenly happen to the plane.

Su Zongxi nodded seriously and left Harbin Institute of Technology.

He didn't expect Wang Duoyu to raise it high and then put it down gently. For him, as long as he didn't leave Northern Airlines, he would be a winner.

After returning to the office, Wang Duoyu continued to busy himself with his own work.

Time flew by. Near noon, when Wang Duoyu was finishing his thesis in his office, he received a call from his nephew Wang Xiangdong.

"Uncle Jiu, the operation just ended. The doctor said that my father has just passed the critical period, but he still needs to be monitored for another 72 hours. Only after 72 hours can we finally confirm whether he is completely out of danger."

"Okay, I get it. Then you brothers, discuss who will stay in the capital to take care of your father. The others can come back. There's no need for everyone to stay there."

"Well, Uncle Jiu, we know. Thank you, Uncle Jiu. If it weren't for you, my dad might have..."

Suddenly, Wang Xiangdong choked up and said, Wang Duoyu comforted him:
"We're all family. Don't dwell on this. Your father has always been a good man and has never done anything bad. Everything will go smoothly for him. Don't overthink it."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Duoyu sighed for a while, looked at the time, packed up, and got up to leave.

His office is now more strict than before.

There are surveillance cameras everywhere in the office, especially in the supercomputer room, where there are even more surveillance cameras.

However, Wang Duoyu is not someone who likes to be stared at, so no one usually watches the surveillance video in the office area.

On the other side of the office area on this floor, there is a security room where four security personnel are always on duty, closely monitoring the entrances and exits of the entire floor.

Even CCTVs are installed in several directions at the highest point of the teaching building to ensure that no one can climb up the wall to the computer room.

The only shot of Wang Duoyu's own office area is in another small room inside the security room. Usually no one enters this room.

In other words, the CCTV in his room is mostly used for backup. Unless something unexpected happens, the video data will be overwritten within 30 days.

Due to the last fire and the earlier leak by researchers, CCTV cameras are now everywhere in Harbin Institute of Technology, especially in several important departments such as the Department of Mathematics.

The monitoring rooms are located in a location where only the security department can enter and exit, and these monitoring rooms are monitored by at least four security department staff members.

Nowadays, the security team of Harbin Institute of Technology has more than 300 people, which can be said to be very exaggerated.

That’s not even counting the security personnel of subordinate enterprises, R&D institutions and other units.

If all of them are added together, the security team will be even larger.

At the gate of the villa, Wang Junhong cheered when he saw his father coming back and ran over quickly.

"Dad, Dad, my eldest brother just called and said that my uncle is fine, you know."

The little guy didn't have a very deep impression of the uncle, but all the relatives of Old Wang came to the villa yesterday, so Wang Junhong also knew what happened last night.

"I understand. You don't have to go see your uncle. Just stay at home." Wang Duoyu said with a smile.

The reason why this brat talked about this matter so enthusiastically was that he learned from Liu Xiaoli and other adults that his elder brother Wang Xiangqian and others took a plane to Beijing last night.

He really likes flying, so the little guy doesn't want to miss this kind of excitement.

But his father refused him and asked him to stay at home, which made him very disappointed and he lowered his eyebrows and said "oh", his eyes rolling around, obviously thinking of some evil ideas again.

North America, Uma Apparel Company USA headquarters.

Zheng Baoyin hasn't slept for two days and two nights in a row. Because Youma Clothing needs to prepare for Christmas this time, he needs to focus on marketing.

Christmas is a peak sales season in North America because it is equivalent to the Spring Festival in our country.

People in the United States celebrate holidays like Christmas very enthusiastically and buy a lot of goods. It can be said that this is the time they spend the most throughout the year.

All of Uma Clothing's stores in the United States offer discounts. These aren't simple buy-one-get-one-free promotions, but rather discounts of thirty on orders over one hundred, ninety on orders over two hundred, and one hundred and fifty on orders over three hundred.

In short, the more you buy, the more you lose.

This kind of discount is still very large. For many ordinary people, Youma clothing is also a very good clothing brand with excellent quality, so it is equivalent to a 50% or 60% discount. Everyone is not stupid and will definitely be very willing to come in and buy.

As a result, many Youma clothing stores were crowded with people.

During the half month before Christmas, there were many people visiting Youma Clothing during its business hours every day.

Unlike the busy Zheng Baoyin, Wang Jianchao is quite leisurely.

Pandora is a mid-to-high-end men's and women's clothing brand, and it can even be called a high-end clothing brand now.

After the gold membership card was launched in early December, 800 cards were sold in a short period of time, and hundreds of cards were sold in the following period.

To some extent, the gold membership card has become a symbol of status.

Especially those NBA basketball stars and football stars, they all bought a gold membership card.

These top players and stars can be said to be a different kind of upstarts.

Basketball stars like Jordan come from relatively wealthy families. After all, his father is a mechanic and his mother is a bank teller, which is much better than many poor families.

Since Pandora's gold membership card is selling well, Wang Jianchao is of course very happy.

He just needs to keep an eye on the marketing situation of each store, and that's all.

Pandora takes a high-end approach, which means that the number of its stores is not very large.

So he could visit all the cities by visiting one or two cities every day.

"This year's mission has been exceeded. It feels great."

Just when Wang Jianchao was feeling extremely happy, an urgent telegram came from home. When he saw it, his smile immediately disappeared.

Wang Shoucheng is his uncle. He used to see him often when he was a child and thought he was very strict. However, in recent years, he rarely stayed in Dahonggou Village, especially this year, he often stayed in the United States.

Therefore, when he heard the news that his uncle had an accident, although he was sad, the sadness was not as strong as before.

Ding Ding!

The phone rang. It was Zheng Baoyin calling. Wang Jianchao picked up the phone immediately.

"Jianchao, have you seen that telegram? How about we return home early?"

"Of course not. Uncle Jiu wants us to keep an eye on the business here. Christmas is coming soon, the busiest holiday of the year here. If we run away now, all the money we invested might go down the drain."

Although Wang Jianchao also wanted to go back, it was a critical time in the United States and he couldn't do without people.

"But my uncle's side."

"Then why worry? It's a long way to go, what can you do when you go back? Brother Xiangqian and the others will definitely take care of it, and there's also Uncle Jiu, so why are you worried?"

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. I'm busy now."

Whether Want Want Group can make a lot of money this year actually depends on Youma Clothing. After all, several companies such as Pandora only started planning at the beginning of the year, and it took several months just to conduct investigations. Several companies such as Yuebu only opened in May and June.

So when it comes to making money, of course you have to look at Yuma Clothing.

Pandora actually makes money, but after all, it follows a membership model. The money in these membership cards is not real revenue, so it cannot be calculated so simply.

Ice City, Liu Family Compound.

Today, Liu Xiaoli brought the little guy Wang Junan back to visit his grandparents and uncle.

After entering the room, Liu Xiaodong saw his sister coming back, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately, especially when he saw the little guy Wang Junan, he snorted coldly.

"Xiaodong, who are you showing your displeasure to? She's your sister, not your enemy!"

Seeing his son like this, Liu Zhensheng immediately scolded him.

Uncle Meng Ping couldn't help but glare at her son, then looked at Wang Junan with a kind look and reached out to hug the child.

As a result, the little guy was a little shy and didn't want to be held by his grandmother. He kept hiding behind his mother.

The little guy, who is about to turn one year old, is still unable to walk, but can still take several steps with help.

Liu Xiaoli pretended not to see her brother. She didn't need her brother's help anyway, so she didn't care.

"Dad, go out and ask around to see if there's any younger brother who got beaten for visiting his older sister's house. I still have a scar on my face, huh," Liu Xiaodong said resentfully.

In January this year, he went to his sister's house and originally wanted to teach Wang Duoyu a lesson.

Who made Wang Duoyu not get a marriage certificate with his sister and not hold a wedding banquet? It's really too much.

But he didn't expect that the security guards around Wang Duoyu were so powerful and they knocked him down in no time.

Because of this, he hated Wang Duoyu.

At the same time, he was also heartbroken by his sister's inaction.

"How dare you say that? Didn't we try to dissuade you? You're asking for trouble!"

Liu Xiaoli, holding the child, listened to the conversation between her father and brother without any intention of interrupting.

My younger brother has retired and is working in the municipal government, but he is still so naive and impatient. I am afraid that his achievements in the future will be limited.

"mom!"

Wang Junan was not quite used to it because there were no brothers or sisters or toys to play with him, so he was very bored.

As for the quarrel between his grandfather and his uncle, he didn't understand it, he just thought it was very noisy.

This kind of noise was not the kind of noise he wanted, unless they were speaking baby talk.

Just at this moment, a guest came to the door.

They are the families of Liu Xiaoli’s uncle Liu Zhenhua and third aunt Liu Mindong.

"Hey, Xiaoli is here too? Oh, and this little guy is here too."

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Mindong saw Liu Xiaoli and Wang Junan, mother and son, and couldn't help but be surprised.

They brought some gifts to the door, but when they saw the gifts Liu Xiaoli brought, Liu Mindong and the others suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

It’s just because Liu Xiaoli brought a lot of gifts, and they looked quite valuable.

Two bottles of slightly turbid-looking Moutai liquor, two packs of cigarettes that appear to have no brand logo, and some mountain products, etc.

The gloves that Meng Pinggu was trying on were actually made of real sable fur, and they were very warm.

This kind of sable fur is quite common in Northeast China, but sable fur of good quality is rare.

Moreover, Liu Mindong also saw that among those mountain products, there were bacon and sausage, but the key point was that there were also two "dried radishes", which should be aged ginseng.

In Northeast China, ginseng is a household name, but ginseng that is more than fifty years old is not so common.

Most of the time, mountain diggers will hide old ginseng that is more than 50 years old after digging it up. Unless it is a critical moment to save a life, they will generally not sell it easily.

The reason is very simple. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the ginseng in many mountain valleys near the Northeast had been dug up.

Even though the older generation of mountain herders often spread ginseng seeds deep in the mountains, there is no guarantee that these scattered seeds will survive.

Therefore, it is becoming increasingly difficult to dig up old wild ginseng that is more than 50 years old, making the price of these old wild ginseng more and more valuable.

Especially after the reform and opening up, in recent years, the price of old wild ginseng that is over a hundred years old has exceeded 500 yuan.

Even so, it is hard to find one.

The mountain herders who know the situation, unless they are really short of money, will most of the time just sell the ginseng that is thirty or forty years old, and then save the ginseng that is more than fifty years old to use as life-saving in critical moments.

Moreover, they also know that only rich people will pay a high price when they need to save their lives. Under normal circumstances, they will definitely not pay a high price to buy.

So there is nothing wrong with keeping it and waiting for the price to be high before selling it.

As a result, it is now more difficult to purchase 80-year-old or 100-year-old mountain ginseng.
