Chapter 52: Wild Mountain Ginseng
This is a single ward in Hong Long District Hospital, and although the conditions are not as good as those of the five hospitals in Tingcheng, the infrastructure in the ward is still complete.
Old Man Dong sat on the sofa in the ward and didn't leave.
Zeng Xiaopeng was bandaged because of an ankle strain, and he also sat next to Old Man Dong.
Dunzi stood beside the hospital bed, waiting for the call at any time.
Old man Dong listened to Uncle Jin tell that last night Zeng Xiaopeng braved the wind and rain to rescue the No. 4 greenhouse, slipped and fell next to the field, hit his head on the stone and fell unconscious, and Uncle Jin later found him and carried him back.
"Reckless, your godfather is right, how much the greenhouse can lose, safety is the first. Old Man Dong reproached Zeng Xiaopeng, but there was obvious appreciation in his expression.
When it was noon, Wei Renfu didn't know where to get the news, and he also came to the ward to visit Uncle Jin with a bag of nutritional products and fruits.
Old Man Dong looked at Wei Renfu with great interest, and thought: Zeng Xiaopeng planted such a cause and effect at a young age, Meng Bin father and son, a police officer and a general, Lu Shaohui and Peng Ping's four partners, each with five bloody boys, Wei Renfu's grandfather and grandson, a man who loves love and an old Chinese medicine doctor, and now he has taken the initiative to recognize a godfather, with this opportunity and potential, Zeng Xiaopeng's future future is limitless!
After a period of greetings, Wei Renfu said: "My grandfather shouted that he wanted to see 50-year-old wild ginseng, and he also said that the prescription he prescribed could not be matched by other pharmacies, and only the medicinal materials saved by my grandfather could be matched." ”
Hearing the reason, Old Man Dong asked Zeng Xiaopeng: "You really have 50-year-old wild ginseng, this is a good thing that money can't buy?"
Zeng Xiaopeng nodded and said: "Yes, Meng Bin gave it, and he also gave more than a pound of natural pure cordyceps, but unfortunately it was sold by my mother." ”
When the old man Dong heard that it was the wild ginseng sent by Meng Bin, he was sure that it was genuine, who would dare to use the fake to deceive the police officers and generals? Therefore, the old man smacked his tongue and said:
"It's a pity, is that ginseng still there? 50 years old wild ginseng, that's worth a lot of money. ”
Zeng Xiaopeng replied: "It should be there, I'll call right away." ”
Wei Renfu said: "My grandfather said, more than 50 years old wild ginseng, the weight of more than 100 grams, the price of each gram is more than 10,000 yuan, and it is impossible to buy it at all. ”
Zeng Xiaopeng heard that wild ginseng was so valuable, and he was even more anxious to call his mother's phone, he knew his wonderful mother too well, and he couldn't see anything valuable, as long as he could exchange money, he dared to sell anything.
But I dialed my mother's phone three times in a row, but no one answered.
Seeing this, Old Man Dong said: "Xiaopeng, why don't you go back to the city for a run, my car is parked in the hospital parking lot, and the driver is also in the car, your godfather won't be able to leave for a while, and you have to find Brother Wei's grandfather to dispense medicine after the infusion." ”
Zeng Xiaopeng agreed, and walked out of the ward with the help of the pier.
Urging the driver to drive faster, Zeng Xiaopeng thought: I must get the wild ginseng as soon as possible, this is a gift to my godfather!
The precious wild ginseng must have been locked in the drawer of the wardrobe by his mother, Zeng Xiaopeng asked the driver to drive the Mercedes-Benz S65 directly to the food processing factory where his mother Li Shuzhen worked.
Li Shuzhen hurriedly ran to the gate, still wearing work clothes, and was taken aback when she saw her son coming to the factory gate in a high-end car, I don't know what happened? !
When Zeng Xiaopeng saw his mother, he said bluntly: "Give me the key, I want that wild ginseng, I need it urgently!"
When Li Shuzhen heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and replied bluntly: "It's sold, the buyer introduced by Uncle Zhong in the street store." ”
When Zeng Xiaopeng heard this, he stomped his foot anxiously, and immediately screamed "ouch", he forgot that his ankle ligament was strained and bandaged.
Li Shuzhen hurriedly squatted down, scooped up her son's trousers, and exclaimed:
"Xiaopeng, I said what's wrong with you? Why is your foot hurting, is it serious? Is it painful?"
Zeng Xiaopeng pulled up his mother and said solemnly: "Mom, I'm not joking with you, I really need that wild ginseng urgently, why don't I buy it for you, 50,000, how about 50,000?
Li Shuzhen laughed and said disdainfully: "Fifty thousand, Xiaopeng, do you know how much I sold that ginseng mother? 150,000, 150,000! Mom is amazing!?"
Hearing this, Zeng Xiaopeng was completely speechless: it can be determined that my mother really sold the wild ginseng.
It's useless to talk to my mother more, and the next thing is to recover the wild ginseng, and chase it to the edge of the sky to get it back.
Zeng Xiaopeng no longer took care of his mother, and turned around and got into the Mercedes-Benz.
took out the phone and dialed the mobile phone of Old Man Dong, Zeng Xiaopeng said dejectedly:
"Dong Lao, the wild ginseng was really sold by my mother, don't worry, I will definitely chase it back!"
Old Man Dong also sighed on the other side of the phone and said:
"Xiaopeng, don't worry, it's best to get it back, don't care about the money, that's a rare treasure for your godfather's treatment! I immediately asked the finance department to charge your card with 500,000 yuan, your card paid for the rent yesterday, and there are not a few left." I repeat, don't worry about the money, try to chase the wild ginseng back, the car will be left for you to use, I will call the driver, you have a foot injury, be careful, I and your godfather are waiting for you!"
Old Man Dong said a long list of words in one breath, and it was difficult for him, for a lonely old man who guarded the greenhouse, he worked so hard and at any cost, but Zeng Xiaopeng was for the godfather he just recognized, and he had to recover the wild ginseng no matter what!
The Mercedes-Benz drove to the street corner of his house, and in a small shop, Zeng Xiaopeng found the sixty-year-old Uncle Zhong and went straight to the point and said:
"Uncle Zhong, a few days ago you introduced my mother to sell a ginseng, which was deposited by my friend at my house, and now I want to chase it back, who did you sell it to?"
Uncle Zhong blinked, glanced at Zeng Xiaopeng, and said lazily:
"Your mother wants to sell it to me first, I can't afford it, so she begged me to find a buyer, I found it for her, and you have to regret it, it doesn't make sense, right?"
Uncle Zhong's attitude was blunt, and he was not angry, Zeng Xiaopeng had to lower his breath:
"Uncle Zhong, don't be angry, you know that my mother is unreliable, and people dare to sell things that people put away, you always tell me who the buyer is, and I will handle the rest, and I will never embarrass you, if you get the ginseng back, I will reward you with two thousand yuan, and I will never break my word!"
As soon as he heard that there was money to be made, coupled with Zeng Xiaopeng's sincere tone, it seemed that he had really encountered something difficult, so Uncle Zhong told Zeng Xiaopeng:
"The ginseng was bought by the boss of one of my relatives, and I heard that it was still a big family, so I left the address. As he spoke, Uncle Zhong took out a small notebook from under the counter, put on reading glasses, and read:
"Ye Meng, the third villa of Jiang'an Jingyuan, No. 69, Taishan Avenue, N City, T Province. ”
Zeng Xiaopeng wrote down the address and name in his mind, thanked Uncle Zhong, asked for a few bags of bread and mineral water, paid for it, turned around and got into the passenger cab of the Mercedes-Benz.
"Drive, N City, T Province, Master Lin, I'm going to work hard for you, hurry up, just gnaw a few breads at noon." ”
It seems that Master Lin has received a call from Old Man Dong, and after listening to Zeng Xiaopeng's instructions, he replied obediently and politely:
"Okay, it's important, you fasten your seatbelts, I'll drive faster. ”
Running all the way on the highway, without stopping, the road conditions and car conditions are also very good, more than 300 kilometers of travel, two hours and one hour to arrive at N City, the capital city of T Province, the time is already three o'clock in the afternoon.
Found the riverside view garden on Taishan Avenue, and the car drove directly into the villa area.
Ringing the doorbell of the third villa, the door came out of a beautiful girl of seventeen or eighteen, wearing a pink alpaca wool coat on her upper body, which set off the frosty skin on her cheeks; willow eyebrows, a pair of dripping almond eyes, bright and clear, full of electricity; the cherry mouth was smeared with light-colored lipstick, the upper lip was slightly upturned, and her demeanor was pure and refined, no matter how you look at it, she is a young girl who is extremely beautiful.
Zeng Xiaopeng had never seen such a beautiful woman, and he was stunned for a while, until the beautiful girl opened her mouth to inquire in surprise, and then suddenly came back to her senses, and replied politely in a low voice:
"Hello beauty, I'm from S Province Pavilion City, my name is Zeng Xiaopeng, I'm looking for Ye Meng?"
The beautiful girl slipped a pair of electric eyes, looked forward to the brilliance, glanced at the Mercedes-Benz S65 parked at the door, and said playfully:
"Ye Meng is my brother, I don't seem to know you, what are you looking for my brother?"
With a crisp and pleasant voice like a silver bell, Zeng Xiaopeng was stunned again.
"Oh, that's the case, my mother mistakenly sold a ginseng plant that someone else had stored at home to your brother Ye Meng, and I came here to take back this ginseng. ”
The beautiful girl stared at Zeng Xiaopeng for a few seconds, and saw that Zeng Xiaopeng felt a deer in his heart, so she quickly calmed down and returned her mind to the wild ginseng!
"I know this, ginseng is used to save my grandmother's life, and I will never return it to you, you have traveled so far, I will give you another 50,000 yuan." ”
Zeng Xiaopeng sighed in his heart: "Grandma, I will add you another 100,000 yuan, and you can return the wild ginseng to me!"
"I'm going to use ginseng to save my life, too!"
"Then what should I do? I shouldn't take back what I sold, it's called flooding!"
The beautiful girl seized the opportunity to say an idiom, her face seemed to be very proud, and she looked at Zeng Xiaopeng with a little provocation.
Zeng Xiaopeng was out of luck for a while, and when he was really scratching his ears and cheeks, an old man in his seventies walked out of the door of the villa and asked the beautiful girl:
"Nana, what's going on, who are they?"
The beautiful girl named Nana replied, "Grandpa, they are coming to get the ginseng back." ”
Zeng Xiaopeng hurriedly repeated what he had just said to the beautiful girl.
After hearing this, the old man said: "Young man, my name is Ye Kai, I am an old soldier, I am a reasonable person, we bought your ginseng, that is, we did not force you to buy and sell, and we did not lose your price, so it is impossible to return it to you, you go, Xiao Na, we go back." ”
After saying that, the old man stroked his granddaughter's shoulder, turned around and entered the house, and closed the door of the villa.
Zeng Xiaopeng returned to the car, reclining on the back of the seat, at a loss, shaking his head and sighing!
