Chapter 167: Flying to Kyoto (Fourth Update Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Dr. Wang, thank you so much today! If it weren't for you, we would have been in big trouble." Zhao Taiyue said with a smile as he sat in the car, thanking Wang Xu.
"It just so happened that the boy's parents were all right. Without me, nothing unexpected would have happened." Wang Xu said with a smile.
"That's what I said, but the other party was too annoying. Still, Master, you're amazing! The expression on that auntie's face at the end was just too wonderful, it still makes me laugh when I think about it." Zhao Kai interrupted.
"Alright, let's just drop it. Tingting and Wang Hao are really going to get married, so from now on they'll be relatives. It's better if we don't make things too awkward between us," Zhao Taiyue scolded.
Zhao Kai looked very afraid of Zhao Taiyue, and upon hearing this, he hastily shut his mouth. On the other hand, Zhao Tingting covered her mouth and giggled secretly, having settled a matter in her heart. The little girl looked very happy.
Zhao Tai's father and daughter did not plan to stay in Zhongjiang for long, so Wang Xu directly sent them to the bus station. After seeing the two get on the bus, Wang Xu returned to the clinic with Zhao Kai.
The car stopped, and Wang Xu saw someone waiting at the clinic door from a distance. As he walked up, he found it was Yun Chong, and hastily smiled to greet him: "Old Yun, you've come, why didn't you give me a call?"
"I just arrived too, I thought you went to eat, so I waited." Yun Chongzi casually waved his hand and waited for Wang Xu to open the door. The three of them entered the clinic together.
After sitting down, Yun Chongzi asked: "How is the situation with Yao's Pharmaceutical Factory? I heard that you have been treating Mrs. Yao Qingping recently?"
"The pharmaceutical factory is fine, just waiting to sign the contract. Our side will invest with technology and take 35% of the shares." Wang Xu smiled as he repeated what he and Yao Qingping had said.
"This is great, it not only saves a lot of money but also avoids the trouble of recruiting again. The skilled workers in the factory are also a great wealth." Yun Chong smiled and nodded.
"I also think so, this morning Yao Qingping has already agreed to sign the contract, but I've handed this matter over to Yang Han, and the contract is something I'll let her handle, in this aspect, I'm an outsider." Wang Xu said with a smile.
"Hmm, this matter is not urgent. Actually, I came to find you today for another reason." Yun Chong said.
"What's on your mind, just say it." Wang Xu said with a smile.
"This matter was originally intended to be discussed with you when you were in Yun City, but it was delayed later. I and Liu Lao of Gaochuan discussed it and felt that it is necessary to set up a traditional Chinese medicine training class, gathering young people with potential in the field from all over the country, and having them guided by renowned veteran traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, so as to cultivate a batch of excellent traditional Chinese medicine personnel." Yun Chong explained.
"This is a good thing, but it's not easy to do. Not to mention that some older generation Chinese medicine masters may not have time, even these young doctors may not be able to gather together." Wang Xu analyzed.
"So I came to find you." Yun Chong smiled and said: "This training class. Liu Lao and I mean to let you be the class leader, at the same time, your relationship with Gao Lao is not bad, we can ask for his opinion, if he helps, this matter will be settled."
"Finding a senior to help is no problem, but being the class leader is out of the question. I don't think I'll participate in this training session. You have no idea, I'm so busy I'm burning the midnight oil." Wang Xu said with a bitter smile.
"You're busy for just a while. This training class isn't something that can be set up in one or two days, and when the time comes, you won't necessarily have no time. Your medical skills indeed don't need guidance from others, but this training class does need someone to take charge. The older doctors who are set in their ways aren't easy to communicate with." Yun Chong said.
"Alright, when the time comes and I have time, I won't shirk. After all, this is a good thing." Wang Xu nodded: "As for Old Gao's side, I'll make some time to give him a call, if not, I'll go to Kyoto for a trip."
"Alright, this matter is now left to you. If we drag it on any longer, who knows when it will be settled." Yun Chong sighed and said, this idea he and Liu Qiancheng had several months ago, but it was dragged until today, if not for Wang Xu's phone call a few days ago asking Peng Shan, Liu Qiancheng probably would have forgotten.
After seeing Yun Chong off, Wang Xu went into the small single room at the back and gave Gao Xue Min a call. The phone was answered quickly, and as soon as Gao Xue Min picked up Wang Xu's call, he started complaining: "You little brat, you can still think of calling an old man like me, I thought you had forgotten about me."
"How could that be? Isn't it afraid of disturbing you, old man?" Wang Xu hurriedly accompanied him, and as he said, he really hadn't called Gao Xuemin for a long time.
"Few poor, say, what's the phone call about? You little devil only shows up when something is going on." Gao Xuemin scolded with a smile.
"Hehe." Wang Xu awkwardly chuckled twice: "I really do have something to discuss with you this time..."
Simply passing on Yun Chongzhi's suggestion to Gao Xuemin, Wang Xu said: "I think this idea is not bad. The current Chinese medical schools can't teach many real things. If we set up a training class like this, the effect might be good."
After listening to Wang Xu's account of the matter, Gao Xuemin hesitated for a moment before sighing: "I didn't expect there was such a Chinese medicine practitioner in Zhongjiang. I'd like to meet him sometime, he's more than I thought. Of course, I agree with this matter."
"Thank you, Grandpa Gao, with your support, this matter should be easily settled." Wang Xu said flattering.
"It's not that simple." Gao Xuemin smiled and said, "This suggestion is indeed good, but the specific details still need to be discussed. You'd better come to Kyoto for a trip."
"Alright, I'll try to make time to come over." Wang Xu nodded in agreement. What Gao Xuemin said was right, but it's easier said than done. There must be many problems that need to be addressed before putting the idea into action, and it can't be explained with just a few sentences.
Wang Xu hung up the phone with Gao Xuemin, and estimated that he would have time in the next two days. Once Yang Han and Peng Shan returned, he probably wouldn't be able to get away.
Thinking of doing it, some things are delayed and there is no time. After leaving the single room, Wang Xu reminded Zhao Kai for a while, and went to the airport to ask about the flight ticket to Kyoto.
On the way, Wang Xu called Yun Chong again to ask if he had time and it would be best to go to Kyoto together.
Able to go see Gao Xue Min, Yun Chong naturally was delighted, busily saying he had time. Wang Xu arrived at the airport and asked around, also buying two tickets for a flight to Kyoto the next afternoon.
The next morning, after breakfast, Wang Xu and Yun Chong took a plane and arrived at Kyoto Airport at 1:30 pm. After graduating, it had been a year since Wang Xu set foot on this land again.
It's been a year since I came, Kyoto has changed a lot. In three days, it will be National Day, and Kyoto has just finished the Olympics not long ago, which is even more lively than when Wang Xu left a year ago. Some streets and alleys have started to hang national flags, which is rarely seen in Jiangzhou.
Kyoto Imperial Palace, under the feet of the emperor, the atmosphere of National Day is naturally more intense than other places. In the past, when I was at home for National Day, what impressed me most was the long holiday of several days.
They hailed a taxi outside the airport and Wang Xu and Yun Chong rushed directly to Gao Xue Min's residence.
Gao Xue Min lived in a Kyoto-style house, the environment was not bad, and Wang Xu had been there before. Familiar with the road, after getting off the car with Yun Chong, he went straight to the door.
As soon as he entered the main gate, he came to a spacious courtyard. Gao Xuemin was sitting under the shade of a tree reading a book. Hearing the noise, he raised his head and looked at Wang Xu in surprise, then quickly stood up and smiled: "You little devil, how come you said you'd come and didn't even give me an early notice?"
Gao Xue Min is already over 70 years old, but he looks quite well, with a ruddy complexion and a full face. He lives alone in this courtyard, with a nanny taking care of his daily life.
Don't look at Wang Xu and Yun Chong's easy entry, in fact the security around this courtyard is no less than that of the Zhongjiang Municipal Government. Gao Xue Min is idle at home, enjoying treatment as a regular ministerial-level official. The surrounding area is all similar retired cadres, anyone who dares to have any bad ideas will be shot on the spot.
There are sentries here, almost all of them are hidden sentries, in order to make these old comrades seem like normal people, generally not paying attention, and not easily discovered. Wang Xu has come many times, and also knows the ins and outs, although he is chatting with Yun Chongzi in the courtyard at this time, there must be many eyes staring at him, if Gao Xuemin shows any displeasure, someone will naturally ask them to leave.
"It just so happens that I have some time, so I came to see you." Wang Xu said with a smile, and then he made way for Yun Chongzheng beside him: "This is Yun Chongzheng, Yun Lao. You said yesterday that you wanted to meet him, and today I've brought the man here."
"Haha, okay, okay." Gao Xuemin laughed and said a few good words, walked over to Yun Chongzhi and stretched out his hand: "If it wasn't for Xiaoxiao mentioning it, I wouldn't have known that Yun Chongzhi was hiding such a person. You are much stronger than me, this old rascal, in dedicating your life to the public."
"Ha ha, you're joking, Mr. Gao! You've always been my idol!" Yun Chongzhi was also very excited to see Gao Xuemin, and he said with a big smile that this man is absolutely the Tai Shan Bei Dou of the medical world at present. Seeing Gao Xuemin made Yun Chongzhi more excited than seeing the mayor of Kyoto.
"Hehe, okay, please sit down, everyone please sit down." Gao Xue Min hastily invited Wang Xu and Yun Chong to sit down at the stone table under the shade. After the three of them sat down, a young man in his thirties suddenly appeared from somewhere, carrying tea water over.
Wang Xu and Yun Chong were chatting in Gao Xue Min's courtyard, while at the same time on Tianquan Mountain, which was more heavily guarded than the nearby watchtower of Siheyuan, an old man also received news of Wang Xu's arrival in Kyoto.
This old man was naturally Wang Xu's paternal grandfather Shen Peijun. The old man sat at the stone table in the courtyard, on which were placed many photos. If you looked closely, you would find that there were a few more photos than last time.
After listening to the guard's report, the old man put down the photo in his hand, stood up, and looked up at the sky. The old man, who was over 90 years old, stood up straight, with a strong military bearing still evident on his body.
"Xiao He, don't you think I'm being too heartless?" The old man looked up at the sky and asked his secretary in a soft voice.
The secretary had followed the old man for over a decade and had never encountered a situation where the old man actively asked for his opinion, so he hastily replied: "Leader, you also have your own difficulties."
"Bitterly, I just can't put down this face of mine. Back then, I had already chosen a husband for her, but she didn't listen to me, and in the blink of an eye, twenty-five years have passed." The old man muttered to himself.
"Director, don't you want to meet Mr. Sun? At that time, Mr. Sun was studying in Kyoto and you hadn't met him yet. This time he has finally come, why not meet him?" the young secretary said.
PS: The fourth update is sent, guess whether Wang Xu will meet his grandfather during this trip to Kyoto?
