Chapter 600: Selling Paintings and Giving Medicine
Evening
Liu Haizhong was waiting for Lin Chen at the gate of the courtyard with a mission.
Now not only Guo Dapiezi is depressed, Nan Yi and Cui Dake are even more aggrieved.
They are young men in their 18s and 19s! How can they accept such a thing...
"Second uncle, why are you not going home?"
Liu Haizhong chuckled and was about to say that he was waiting for the uncle to do something. But he suddenly had an idea and thought of something...
"Nan Yi, why don't you ask an old man to help you heal your condition?"
Nan Yi sighed after hearing this: "How can we not look for it? Uncle Lin said that some herbs are hard to find, such as 100-year-old ginseng and 100-year-old fire ganoderma... I went to the pharmacy and asked, and they wanted at least this much. We can't afford it!"
Liu Haizhong frowned after hearing this. He had not expected that such precious medicinal materials would be needed. These were only told by storytellers, and no one had ever seen them!
"This... this is indeed a bit expensive. It's hard to buy even if you have money. Just hold on a little longer!"
Liu Haizhong said this and patted Nan Yi's shoulder meaningfully...
Now the two young men hate this yard so much that they would never come here if they had known this.
"Second Uncle, give Old Yi a tip. I'll call him Brother Yi from now on. Let him do whatever he wants! We men won't pay any attention to him!"
Cui Dake went to the middle courtyard to fetch water after he finished speaking. The two had already agreed that no matter what happened, they would do whatever they wanted. Whoever was not happy would do it. Anyway, it was a broken jar!
……
Liu Haizhong looked at the two people's angry backs and couldn't help but smile.
"You guys can yell whatever you want! Why are you getting mad at me... Are you crazy?"
"Lao Liu, who do you think is wrong?"
When Liu Haizhong heard Lin Chen's voice, he chuckled and turned around quickly.
"Brother Lin, you are finally back! I was wondering about those two brats from Nan Yi. They asked me to pass a message to Old Yi... Tell me, young people nowadays are so disrespectful."
Lin Chen pushed his bicycle into the yard, and Liu Haizhong followed happily.
"Brother Lin, I...I have something I want to ask you."
"Just say what you want to say! Why are you being so hesitant, brother?"
Liu Haizhong chuckled and said, "Let's go back to the room and talk about it. This matter is quite private."
After the two of them passed
Nan Yi looked at Lin Chen's back and shook his head. He couldn't afford those two medicinal herbs at all.
"Dake, why are we so unlucky? From now on, Mei Niu has nothing to do with us brothers..."
Cui Dake also sighed and felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Just save up money slowly! Once you have enough, go ask Uncle Lin for help..."
……
Backyard Lin Family
Liu Haizhong stated Guo Dapiaozi's request.
Lin Chen tapped the table lightly with his fingers and thought for a long time.
"Old Liu, this treatment will only be effective at a high price... It's not something that can be cured by just a few injections. At the very least, we need to find a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng and a hundred-year-old fire ganoderma..."
When Liu Haizhong heard it, it was exactly the same as what Nan Yi said. He had only heard of this thing. Who had ever seen what it looked like?
"Brother Lin, do you have this thing? Lao Guo said that the money issue can be discussed..."
Lin Chen stood up and walked into the bedroom, then took out a box like a treasure.
"Lao Liu, this is my most precious treasure! If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have shown it to anyone else."
Lin Chen slowly opened the layers of floral cloth, and finally carefully opened the brocade box.
A wild ginseng lay inside, and a blood-red Ganoderma lucidum lay in another box.
Liu Haizhong was also very impressed, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch it. But Lin Chen pushed him away...
"Just look at it, you still want to touch it? Go back and tell Guo Da Piezi... these two treasures cost this much. I'll give him an extra painting by a famous artist... these two items are considered gifts for the paintings, I don't sell medicine."
When Liu Haizhong saw that Lin Chen gestured that it cost six hundred yuan, he nodded involuntarily.
"It's worth it, I think it's worth it...it's a treasure."
After Liu Haizhong was sent away, the two brocade boxes disappeared automatically.
Lin Chen was thinking that Xiao Linyu and Xiao Lin Jie were going to have a full moon banquet at the end of the month, and now someone was taking care of it!
You actually went to the security department to die. Don’t you know that my baby girl is going to celebrate her full moon?
After leaving the Lin family, Liu Haizhong went straight to the central courtyard to borrow the Jia family's bicycle.
He wanted to send a message to Guo Dapiezi... Although the prices were high, they were indeed genuine and good things.
The two poor guys in Nan Yi can’t afford it, but Guo Dapie is rich!
A man only has so many hobbies in his life. If he is in his seventies or eighties, it is fine. But Guo Dapiezi is only in his thirties. He must be treated.

Intermediate Court
Ma's
Seeing that no one was in the courtyard, Lin Chen came to Ma Laoliu's house.
"Brother Lin, please sit down. I'll go buy some wine and ask your sister-in-law to cook two dishes..."
"Sixth brother, stop busying yourself. I'm not here to eat for free. I'm here to discuss something with you."
Ma Laoliu and his wife looked at each other. Seeing that Lin Chen was coming at dinner time... they wanted to entertain him.
"Brother Lin, if you have anything to say, please tell us. We are listening."
After Lin Chen sat down
"Sixth brother, it's a bit crowded for you two to live in this room with two children. I plan to get you a small courtyard to live in. There is a vacant courtyard in the logistics department recently... If you two agree, we can move in tomorrow. But don't tell anyone. You know the situation in the courtyard."
Ma Laoliu was so excited that he almost knelt down. His two sons were in their teens. The four of them were still squeezed on a kang, and now Lin Chen was going to secretly give him a room. This was a great thing...
"Thank you, Brother Lin, thank you, Director Lin. I... my family only has 80 yuan in savings, and we really don't have much more... I'll give it all to you."
Ma Laoliu asked his wife to take all their savings to thank Lin Chen.
Lin Chen stood up and stopped the excited couple.
"What are you thanking me for? We've been neighbors for more than ten years! Remember, if anyone in the yard asks you, just say it was your brother-in-law who did it..."
"Okay, okay, we won't make things difficult for Brother Lin about this matter."
Lin Chen left the Ma family and went to the front yard to block Yan Bugui who was returning from fishing...
Now that Guo Dapiezi has also been brought into the courtyard, it should be enough for the time being.
……
Early next morning
Workshop 1
Guo Dapiezi received a notice that he was assigned to the 95th courtyard of Nanluoguxiang.
After the people from the logistics department left, Guo Dapiezi ran directly to Liu Haizhong's workstation.
"Old Liu, do you have any vacancies in your hospital?"
Liu Haizhong shook his head, not understanding what it meant.
"Where are the vacant rooms? There's almost no room to stay."
Guo Dapiezi frowned: "That's not right! Just now, the people from the logistics department asked me to move to a vacant room in your central courtyard..."
When Liu Haizhong heard the location mentioned by Guo Dapiezi, wasn't it the Ma family next door to Yi Zhonghai?
"This... I don't know where Ma Laoliu's house is from the third workshop. I'll go to him at noon to ask him what's going on..."
