Siheyuan, Shazhu: I have both parents in this life

Chapter 290 Request, Arrangement

Shortly after the ship entered international waters, everyone in the rescue team fell asleep in their cabins.

They've been exhausted for the past two weeks. They've only been sleeping two or three hours a day. If it weren't for sheer willpower, they would have collapsed long ago.

This willpower comes from the soldiers, medical staff, workers and peasants who went to the disaster relief efforts, as well as the disaster victims who are struggling to survive and waiting for rescue.

Even He Yuzhu, who has superhuman physical abilities, was no exception. During the disaster relief period, he slept less than others, and when he did, he slept for a whole day and night. When he came out of the cabin again, there were people all out moving around.

All the way from the cabin to the deck, there were greetings of "Hello, boss!" and "Hello, Mr. Chen!" He Yuzhu nodded to each of them. After this shared experience, he felt that these people were worth it.

"Boss, there's hot food in the restaurant, go and have some." Shi Bin came over after hearing from his subordinates that He Yuzhu had woken up.

Inside the restaurant, steaming rice porridge and pickled vegetables, along with several steamed buns, were laid out on a long table.

He Yuzhu had just sat down after getting his food when Hu Wenxue came over with his tray and sat down opposite him.

"He Sheng!"

"Dr. Hu, how was your rest?"

"I've recovered, and as a representative of the medical staff, I'd like to talk to you."

"You said I would try my best to fulfill your requests."

"Mr. He, when we go back this time, we want to join the Yellow River Group and work for you."

He Yuzhu looked up at him: "Have you thought it through?"

"We've thought it through. We want to join the Yellow River Group," Hu Wenxue said firmly.

"You're welcome to join me, but there are a few things I need to make clear."

"You say!"

"Although Huanghe Hospital has a medical department, it's not large and mainly serves its internal staff. You've been to the steel mill hospital, and it's far inferior to those good hospitals. Can you accept that?"

“We’re not going to sit in an office,” Hu Wenxue shook his head. “We’ve seen so much during this disaster relief effort, and we’ve also seen the Yellow River’s great love and strength. I think with He Sheng’s abilities, we won’t be overlooked.”

"Hahaha, Dr. Hu is so sure? You know, none of Huanghe's main businesses are related to medicine." He Yuzhu deliberately concealed what Xu Damao was doing.

Hu Wenxue nodded: "That's for sure. He Sheng will definitely do similar things again in the future. He can't just gather people on short notice every time. We've gained a lot of experience from this experience. He Sheng wouldn't go to such lengths, would he?"

“What you said makes a lot of sense, but there’s something else you need to tell the others when you get back.”

"You say!"

"The existing medical-related departments at Yellow River Hospital are all at the second-level. I can't upgrade them just because you joined. There's also the issue of compensation. I can't give you much higher compensation than others just because you risked your lives with me. You need to understand these things."

“We’ve discussed all of this. In fact, we inquired about it when we were at the steel mill hospital. Their treatment wasn’t low, and it was even better than some public hospitals!”

"In that case, you should rest and recuperate for a while after you get back. I'll discuss the arrangements with the relevant management and then let you know. Don't worry, you won't have to wait too long!"

"Okay, Mr. He! I was a little anxious, I'm sorry to have disturbed your meal," Hu Wenxue said somewhat apologetically.

"It's okay, I see you've only just started eating, continue."

"it is good."

Actually, even if Hu Wenxue and his group hadn't come to them, He Yuzhu would have sent someone to talk to them. Putting aside everything else, just the fact that they dared to go makes these people worth bringing into the Yellow River Group.

When the ship arrived in Hong Kong, it was almost dusk, and the lights of Victoria Harbour were already lighting up, outlining the entire harbor coastline.

At the Tseung Kwan O pier, a dense crowd stood silently, far more impressive than when they set off.

There were no deafening drums or fluttering flags, only quiet waiting.

The ship slowly approached the shore, and the gangway was lowered.

He Yuzhu was the first to step onto the solid dock ground, followed by team members Shi Bin, Hu Wenxue, and others.

They were dressed in brand-new clothes, but the deep weariness etched on their faces could not conceal the arduous battles they had endured; everyone's spines were ramrod straight.

The silence on the dock was broken, and applause surged up like a tide, starting sporadically and quickly coalescing into a continuous wave of sound.

The applause was not filled with frenzied cheers, but with profound respect.

He Yuzhu's gaze swept over the throng of people and then fixed on something.

Xiaoman stood at the front of the crowd, wearing a simple cheongsam, with a faint smile on her face, but her eyes were clearly red.

Behind her stood several influential figures in Hong Kong's business world, including Huo Sheng and Li Huan, their expressions solemn.

Then, three figures carrying pure white lilies ran through the passage cleared by the adults.

"Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!"

It was He Yaozu, He Yaozong, and He Yuzhu's youngest daughter, He Ningxue. The three children rushed to He Yuzhu's side and held the flowers in their hands high.

He Yuzhu took the flowers from the children, stretched out his arms, and hugged the three children tightly.

"Do you miss your dad?" He Yuzhu asked gently with a smile.

"Yes!" the children exclaimed in unison.

Qiao Lingyi also walked up to her husband. Their eyes met, and a thousand words were unspoken in their silent gaze.

She reached out and gently brushed away a tiny speck of dust that was almost invisible from his shoulder, her movements tender and precious.

"It's good that you're back." Her voice was very soft.

"Yes, you're back." He Yuzhu let go of the children and gave her a hug.

Xiaoman wasn't shy at all; instead, she enjoyed her husband's embrace. After a moment, she pushed He Yuzhu away and whispered, "Mr. Huo and Mr. Li are here too."

Huo Sheng, Li Huan, and the others only came forward after the two separated.

“Mr. He!” Mr. Huo gripped He Yuzhu’s hand tightly, his expression excited. “Amazing! Truly amazing! We’ve heard about what you’ve been doing over there. Hong Kong is proud to have compatriots like you!” His voice was loud and clear, filled with heartfelt admiration.

Li Huan also solemnly said, "Mr. He, the Yellow River Rescue Team's mission is not only an act of saving lives, but also a demonstration of national righteousness! Our colleagues in the Hong Kong business community are deeply impressed!"

"Mr. Huo, Mr. Li, you flatter me. I only did what I could. When the country is in trouble, we, as Chinese people, should stand together in the face of disaster."

As he spoke, his gaze turned to the team members who were disembarking one after another.

Shi Bin, Hu Wenxue, and the others also reunited with their families and friends. For a time, the dock was filled with whispers of reunion, suppressed sobs, and sighs of relief.

The fatigue on the team members' faces seemed to melt away a little the moment they saw their loved ones.

Some people patted Shi Bin's shoulder hard, while others hugged Hu Wenxue tightly. The joy of surviving the ordeal and the reverence for the hero's return were intertwined in every moment.

The others also turned to look.

He Yuzhu said, "I haven't been home for a long time, and I just want to go home right now, so I won't entertain you all. I'll invite you all again after I've finished dealing with some chores!"

"Of course, of course!" Huo Sheng hurriedly replied.

"We've been waiting for your drinks!" Li Huan joked.

"No problem, I will definitely satisfy you all!" He Yuzhu clasped his hands in a fist salute.

The vehicle slowly started and drove away from the bustling dock. He Yuzhu leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Outside the car window, the dazzling neon lights of Hong Kong flashed by, creating a stark contrast with the desolate and bleak landscape of my memory.

Qiao Lingyi held his hand tightly, asked no questions, and simply stayed by his side quietly.

The car drove into the He residence, which was brightly lit.

He Daqing, Chen Lanxiang, the old lady, Mr. Chen, He Yuxin, He Yuyao, He Yuyan, He Yushui, Wang Siyu, Yu Zecheng, Wang Cuiping and other family members were already waiting at the door.

Seeing He Yuzhu get out of the car, He Daqing's lips moved, but in the end, he only said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Chen Lanxiang wiped her eyes and hurriedly invited, "Come in quickly, dinner is all ready, we're just waiting for you to come back."

The warmth of home instantly enveloped He Yuzhu.

"Big brother, we are proud of you!" He Yushui ran over and took He Yuzhu's arm, and then Wang Siyu took He Yuzhu's other arm as well.

"Big brother, why didn't you tell me? I wanted to go too." He Yuyao said resentfully. He had been feeling down for many days. He went to the 'Wolf Fang' training base during his police academy break and found that many people were missing from 'Wolf Fang'. Old Wolf finally told him where the team members had gone after he kept pestering him.

How could he not be upset? He missed the chance to learn how to fly a helicopter and the chance to fight alongside his older brother.

"Aren't you at school?"

"I can take a leave!"

"Ask Uncle Yu if you can take such a long leave?" He Yuzhu said irritably. Unexpectedly, Yu Zecheng contradicted him: "Yes, I want to go too."

However, his face was full of a relieved smile. This kid was indeed different from others. He had seen too many people who talked a good game but failed miserably when it came to actually doing something.

"Zhu Zi, well done! You're still the combat hero I know!" Wang Cuiping came over and punched He Yuzhu.

"Alright, my grandson must be tired and hungry. Don't stand at the door anymore," the old lady said.

"Yes, yes, let's go inside, let's go inside!" everyone said with laughter.

The old lady was getting on in years. She was supposed to wait in the living room, but she insisted on coming out. He Yuyao carried her out, and now He Yuyan is supporting her.

He Yuyao walked over and picked up the old lady again, saying, "Madam, you only care about your eldest grandson, but you don't care about the rest of us. We are very filial to you."

"You little rascal, when have I ever stopped caring about you? You're asking for a beating!" He said, gently patting He Yuyao's head.

"Hehe, see? You can't bear to hit my older brother!" He Yuyao teased.

"Your older brother is obedient!"

"I heard from my mother that my older brother was much more mischievous than us when he was young."

"If he didn't cause trouble, you kids would have been drinking cornmeal porridge every day when you were little," the old lady said irritably, then patted He Yuyan on the shoulder to urge him to leave.

"Anyway, you're always right!" He Yuyao had no choice but to quicken her pace, saying as she did so.

"Third Uncle, Grandma and Auntie said you were a bit naughty and quiet when you were little, but my dad was much more well-behaved than you!" He Ningxue's sudden interjection drew laughter from everyone.

"Hahahaha!"

The dinner was filled with laughter and joy. No one asked about the disaster relief efforts, as it was too heavy a topic and they were afraid of frightening the children.

After returning home and enjoying the rare warmth, He Yuzhu did not indulge in the relaxation of being home.

A few days later, he convened the core management team involved in the disaster relief efforts: Xiaoman, Bai Yifeng, Shi Bin, Xu Damao, and Yang Tao, who was in charge of vehicles. Hu Wenxue was also notified to attend the meeting, which was held in the strategic conference room on the top floor of the Yellow River Building.

At the beginning of the meeting, He Yuzhu first gave a summary of the disaster relief efforts.

"This rescue exposed many of our problems, but also showed us many bright spots."

Everyone looked serious upon hearing the questions.

He Yuzhu continued, "The brothers from Taishan Security dug people out of the ruins, operated machinery, maintained order, and transported supplies, demonstrating extremely strong discipline, physical strength, and adaptability. Calling you security personnel is an understatement."

Shi Bin stood up straight and said, "Boss, we just did what we were supposed to do. The brothers didn't disgrace the Yellow River."

"Sit down, that's what I'm going to talk about next." He Yuzhu gestured for Shi Bin to sit down, and Shi Bin sat down again.

"This part of the security can no longer be simply regarded as security; it needs to be separated from the Taishan security system and become a separate organization."

"What does the boss mean?" Shi Bin was very concerned about the whereabouts of his men.

"We will split up the existing commercial security business, which will be managed by Zhai Yang to ensure the security needs of the group itself and its partners. At the same time, we will establish the 'Taishan Rescue Team' with Shi Bin as the captain."

Shi Bin was about to speak again when He Yuzhu said, "Don't rush, let me continue. The 'Taishan Rescue Team' is still temporarily under Taishan Security, and you, Shi Bin, are in charge of Taishan Security. You'll be even bolder from now on."

"Boss, that's not what I meant. Zhai Yang can handle the security. He's the one who's been running around before. I just stay home most of the time."

“I know, that’s why I said temporarily. He needs time to get familiar with security. Also, leading a team to carry out missions and managing operations are not the same thing. We’ll have to see if he can handle it.”

“I understand,” Shi Bin said.

He Yuzhu nodded and continued, "The core mission of the Taishan Rescue Team is military-style physical training and disaster relief professional skills training. It covers earthquakes, floods, fires, mountainous terrain, and even complex environment rescues that may be needed in the future. We need to train like an army, an army specifically designed to rescue people from hell on earth. We need to find a new training base, a large area, and the simulated environment needs to be as realistic and brutal as possible. I will discuss this with A Lang."

"Do you have any recommendations?" Everyone shook their heads; He Yuzhu's requirements were too high.

"Let Ah Lang worry about that. Now, let me talk about personnel. In addition to the existing staff, we will continue to select new personnel from Taishan Security. The principle is voluntary participation, and we will not accept unqualified personnel. I need people with unwavering integrity!"

Shi Binyan jumped to his feet: "Yes, boss! We guarantee to complete the mission! The rescue team is the sharpest knife on the Yellow River; we'll go wherever we're needed!"

He Yuzhu gestured for him to sit down again, then turned his gaze to Hu Wenxue: "Dr. Hu, your destination for now is the 'Taishan Rescue Team'."

"Mr. He, I'm afraid training is the only thing that matters," Hu Wenhua hesitated before speaking.

“I understand, so it’s temporary. I plan to build my own general hospital!”

After these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence in the conference room, followed by low murmurs.

Hu Wenxue's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected He Yuzhu to be so ambitious. Building a hospital required huge investment, took a long time, and had a slow return. Moreover, Hong Kong's medical landscape was already very mature and highly competitive.

Xiaoman had already switched into concierge mode. She spoke first: "Chairman He, what kind of hospital is this? What is our target patient group and profit model?"

"You'll have to investigate that yourself. I only have one requirement: that they be able to support themselves."

Everyone was stunned; he had abandoned his post again.

"What's the name of the hospital?" Xiaoman asked.

"Let's call it 'Ren'an Hospital'. 'Benevolent heart and skillful hands, protecting peace.' This is not only the duty of doctors, but also the mission of our rescue team."

“Ren’an Hospital…” Hu Wenxue repeated softly, his eyes filled with approval, “A good name!”

"Dr. Hu, don't be too happy yet. Building a hospital takes time. In addition to training, your medical team will take turns to provide consultations at several factory hospitals along the Yellow River."

“I understand that. If we surgeons don’t work for a long time, we become rusty, and the same goes for nurses.”

"You just understand."

“When I got back, I told them that they would be happy to join the Taishan Rescue Team.”

"Okay, that's all for now, Taishan. Da Mao, let's talk about your medical equipment next."

"Chairman He, please speak!" Xu Damao has now changed his tune in public.

"First, you need to meet the requirements of the 'Taishan Rescue Team'. They should have learned a lot from this experience."

"Yes."

"Secondly, you need to understand the development of medical devices globally, including electronic devices."

"understand!"

"Don't agree so quickly. Understanding something is not as simple as just giving me a list or an instruction manual."

"What do you mean?"

"You need to figure out the development trends and what other things will become profit centers in the future."

"This"

“I know it’s too technical for you, but you can hire people. We have professional teams in electronics and mechanics. You can ask them if you don’t understand.”

"understood!"

"Train someone up as soon as possible, and you can't neglect your retail business either."

"I'd like to discuss this with Chairman He after the meeting."

"can."

"Your turn now, Yang Tao."

"Boss, please speak!"

"Incorporate tracked vehicles into regular R&D. You can contact Yuanheng for details. Of course, it's not just about trucks. My requirement is that whatever is mounted on it will be the type of vehicle it is."

"clear."

"Ambulances and refrigerated trucks will also be included in the plan this time, and these will be growth points for Yellow River Automobile in the future."

"Boss, I'm afraid our factory..."

"It's not big enough, is it? The workshop isn't big enough either."

"Yes."

"You guys get the technology up to the point where it can be mass-produced first. As for production, we'll deal with that later. We'll figure it out eventually."

"Okay." Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that He Yuzhu would ask him to start production as soon as possible, which would delay his previous business a lot. Those were channels that had been hard-won.

"Alright, that's enough for now. Damao, come to my office."

"it is good."
