Chapter 217 Xu Damao Wants to Be the Manager
Wang Tiedan’s magic medicine is like a thorn that has been stuck in many people’s hearts for a long time.
Some people want to get it for emergencies, like the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai; some people want to give it as a gift, like Liu Haizhong; and some people want to get rich, and Yan Bugui saw the profit in it.
Money can move people's hearts, but unfortunately Wang Tiedan doesn't have a good relationship with them.
Now that we have the opportunity, we must not let it go.
When Xu Damao saw Wang Tiedan coming in, he no longer concealed his excitement.
"Tiedan, the man just now said that he can provide five hundred-year-old wild ginsengs for only fifty doses of medicine, and he will deliver them in a few days. Is that okay?"
"Didn't they inquire about the old Chinese doctor's news?"
"They did ask, but I said it was inconvenient, so they didn't ask any more questions. Do you agree to this or not? Give me a definite answer."
Wang Tiedan thought about it and decided that he must create an illusion of difficulty.
"Of course, we can, but it will take longer. Now that we have enough ginseng, we need to look for other herbs."
"That's fine! How long will it take?"
Xu Damao didn't care about anything else, as long as he had the medicine.
"At least until next May Day."
"It takes that long?"
"What do you think?"
Xu Damao thought about it and nodded.
"Then let them wait. I will explain it to them in advance."
"Just don't mention me. Even if you do, I won't admit it."
"understood."
The two were chatting and looked out the window at the same time. Xu Damao walked over carefully and saw two heads hiding underneath.
He pointed towards the window. Wang Tiedan walked over and took a look, and immediately understood.
The two men exchanged glances and the plan was complete, but before it even began, there was another knock on the door.
"Da Mao, it's me, Director Wang."
Xu Damao hurried to open the door.
"Director Wang, why are you back? Please come in."
As he said this, he made way.
"Why can't I come back!"
Director Wang walked into the room with a smile, but when he saw that there were outsiders, he put away his smile.
"Wang Tiedan, you are here too!"
"Yes, Director Wang, I just finished talking to Xu Damao. You guys chat. I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you."
After saying that, he turned around and left. Judging from Director Wang's attitude, he didn't want others to know what happened. He had to be more considerate.
As soon as Wang Tiedan left, Director Wang directly stated the purpose of his return.
"Da Mao, how much is that medicine? Leave two for me, is that ok?"
Xu Damao had anticipated this long ago. It would certainly be good to make friends with Director Wang, but Li Huaide would definitely be given priority.
"Director Wang, you are making things difficult for me. You heard it just now. I don't know whether the old doctor is willing or not. I can't make the decision."
"You can think of a way. You are a smart person. I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
"Director Wang, I will give you an accurate answer when I come back from the countryside in a couple of days. How about that?"
Director Wang patted Xu Damao on the shoulder, obviously not satisfied with the answer.
"Da Mao, I won't hide it from you. I'm going to give this medicine to my lover as a gift. It's very important to my family. If you can help me, I'll owe you a favor."
Things have come to this point, Xu Damao can no longer insist. To do so would be a lack of respect. It would be better for the county magistrate to be in charge now. Director Wang could make things difficult for him very easily.
"Okay, since I can help Director Wang, I will beg for the medicine even if I have to. Please wait for my news."
"it is good!"
Director Wang nodded.
"I remember that the hospital is still short of a steward. Do you want to experience it? I recommend you come up."
"Really?"
Xu Damao felt a little eager when he thought about sitting behind the round table and scolding Sha Zhu.
"As long as you are willing, you can. Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I have something else to do on the street. I'll leave first."
"Hey, I'll take you there!"
Xu Damao accompanied Director Wang out of the compound, and when he came back to look for Wang Tiedan, he was nowhere to be found.
At the same time, the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu returned to the Liu family and recounted the conversation between Xu Damao and Director Wang word for word.
Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were both shocked. They knew that they had underestimated the value of the medicine.
They all knew that Director Wang’s wife, a senior leader of the district committee, chose this medicine as a gift, which shows how popular it is.
Liu Haizhong was the one who was most deeply touched. He had previously given Li Huaide a gift and spent more than a hundred yuan on it, but it didn't even make a splash.
Before Liu Guangtian finished speaking, Liu Haizhong couldn't wait to ask, "Did you hear where Xu Damao bought the medicine?"
"No, he didn't."
"Old Liu, Xu Damao said he will go to the countryside in a couple of days. He must be going to the doctor. We should find a way to follow him."
"Yes, yes, Guangfu, don't do odd jobs these two days. Always follow Xu Damao and don't lose him." Liu Haizhong said.
Liu Guangfu's face immediately fell. Last time, when he caught the person who broke the glass, he and Liu Guangtian squatted in the alley and almost froze themselves to death. Now he was following Xu Damao again. It was okay in the city, but if he left the city, he would be frozen to death.
"What, you don't want to!?"
Liu Haizhong's face darkened and he said angrily.
"No, Dad, Xu Damao has a bicycle. I can't catch up with him even if I try my best."
"If you don't have a bicycle, can't you borrow one? You have a pig brain!"
"Who would lend someone a bicycle these days?"
Liu Haizhong thought about it and turned to look at Yan Bugui.
"Old Yan, are you okay?"
Yan Bugui felt a sudden pain in his heart, the bicycle was his darling, he cleaned it three times a day, and even his son had to pay for borrowing it.
It is obviously not possible to charge rental fees under the current circumstances.
"Lao Liu, forget about the bicycle. I'm going to ask my family to follow Xu Damao."
"That's perfect. Jiefang and I can ride together and we can take turns riding when we get tired." Liu Guangfu said with a smile.
"no!"
Yan Bugui refused immediately, saying that two grown men riding on the mountain road would definitely damage his beloved bike.
"The back seat of my bicycle is broken, so I can't support anyone."
Liu Haizhong looked at Yan Bugui and felt like punching him on the head as he was still so stingy.
"If you don't want to lend it to me, then don't lend it to me. I'll find a way myself!"
"Old Liu, you know a lot of people and have many apprentices, so it must be easy for you to borrow a bicycle." Yan Bugui smiled shamelessly.
Liu Haizhong sneered and said, "Yan Bugui, you are only generous in words."
"Dad, Director Wang said that if Xu Damao can help, he should be the boss."
"Ah? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were both startled, and then they smiled.
This is good news. Xu Damao will not become a boss, which means that their positions will be promoted. They were just worrying about how to implement it, this is a surprising gain.
At this time, the deaf old lady was leaning against the window, eavesdropping on the Liu family's conversation.
When she heard this, she was also shocked.
There is no rush to follow up on buying medicine, there is plenty of time.
But the manager's plan will definitely not succeed. Once Xu Damao is elected, it will be extremely difficult for Yi Zhonghai to be elected again.
No matter how big the grudge between her and Yi Zhonghai is, they are in the same group after all.
