Chapter 121 South City Health Committee
It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning when Li Baolin and Zhang Benchu avoided the people who were talking to them and returned to the lounge.
Li Baolin and Zhang Benchu were both over 80 years old. They were both out of breath after they came back quickly. They smiled at each other while leaning on the sofa to catch their breath.
While Li Baolin was resting, Li Wan'er told her grandfather about the century-old Polygonum multiflorum and giant clams that the Chu family of Nanshi had given him.
Li Baolin smiled and then waved his hand.
"Okay, I know everything!"
Seeing that her grandfather didn't say much, Li Wan'er stopped talking.
After Li Baolin calmed down for a while, he said with a happy face: "Today, I will be the host. No one should leave. Let's have dinner together here at Donglai Pavilion Hotel."
Chu Yunhao didn't want to worry about the favors of Baicaotang anymore, so he wanted to decline and leave.
"Old shopkeeper, we have something else to do this afternoon..."
"Xiao Chu, listen to me first... Wan'er, stand at the door. If any of them leave, I will hold you responsible!" Li Baolin immediately interrupted Chu Yunhao's words, and at the same time, his granddaughter Li Wan'er stood at the door to prevent anyone from leaving. "Xiao Chu, you are a customer of our Baicaotang, and we are also partners. We came here today to participate in the auction of Chinese medicinal materials. This is also the fate of all of us. In addition, today's auction was also very smooth. With the help of the Chu family in Nanshi, our Baicaotang successfully obtained two precious medicinal materials, the century-old Polygonum multiflorum and the giant clam, so this is a great event. What about me? When I came to Donglai Pavilion Hotel, I had already booked lunch, so no one was allowed to leave. You can leave at any time after you are full!"
"This..." Chu Yunhao spoke hesitantly, his eyes slowly turning to Dean Zhang Benchu and Wu Yanzi, but at this time, Dean Zhang Benchu deliberately turned his head away, and Wu Yanzi just smiled slightly and did not speak.
Chu Yunhao couldn't help feeling a bit troubled. Just as he was thinking about how to find another reason to decline, Li Wan'er, who was standing guard at the door, said, "Brother Chu, don't make excuses anymore! My grandfather has already booked the lunch. It's too late to cancel it now!" After that, she stretched out her arms and blocked the door of the room, as if she was afraid that Chu Yunhao would leave suddenly.
Seeing this, Chu Yunhao knew that if he refused forcefully, it would probably make the situation awkward. Helplessly, he could only nod and agree to stay.
"Well then! Mr. Zhang, Sister Yan Zi, since Baicaotang is so hospitable, we would not want to refuse their kindness. So we'd better obey your orders and have lunch together here at noon." Chu Yunhao said with a smile, trying to make his tone sound more natural.
After a while, the waiter came in and informed everyone to go to the restaurant for dinner.
Li Baolin and Zhang Benchu, supported by three young men, slowly walked towards the restaurant.
The restaurant was decorated magnificently, and the tables were filled with exquisite dishes.
Everyone took their seats and then began to enjoy the food.
No alcohol was ordered for lunch, so everyone drank tea instead of wine, which did not affect the pleasant mood of the meal at all.
After lunch, Chu Yunhao accompanied Li Baolin and Zhang Benchu to rest in the lounge for a while, and then everyone separated at the Donglai Pavilion Hotel.
There is a small courtyard next to Nanshi Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The plaque at the door reads: Nanshi Health Committee
The gate of the Nanshi Health Commission was closed, with only one security guard sitting in the gate room, looking at his phone boredly.
At this time, a car stopped in the parking lot in front of the Nanshi Health Committee, and then three people got out of the car.
The three people who got off the car were Chu Yunhao, Wu Yanzi and old dean Zhang Benchu. They came here directly after leaving Donglai Pavilion Hotel.
Chu Yunhao knocked on the window glass of the gate room with his hand. When the security guard inside saw someone coming, he put down his phone and pushed open the window shutter.
"Who are you looking for?" the security guard asked.
At this time, Dean Zhang Benchu said to the security guard at the window: "Security master, it's like this, Director Qin Lixia of your Cadre Health Committee asked me to come here."
When the security guard heard this, he immediately stood up from his chair, opened the door and walked out of the gate.
After leaving the house, the security guard greeted him respectfully, "Ah! You are Dean Zhang Benchu, right?"
"Yes! I am Zhang Benchu!"
"Hello, Dean Zhang! Director Qin has already told me that she should notify you in time when you arrive. Dean Zhang, please wait a moment. I will go and notify Director Qin right away."
The security guard turned and walked into the gate, and began to make an internal call.
After a while, the security guard finished his call and came outside to Zhang Benchu and said, "President Zhang, Director Qin will be down to pick you up soon. Please wait a moment."
Zhang Benchu smiled and nodded.
Not long after, an elegant middle-aged woman walked out from the door of the third floor.
The middle-aged woman walked briskly and soon arrived at the gate. With a friendly smile on her face, she walked up to Zhang Benchu, immediately shook his hand and said, "Old Dean, you are finally here. I have been looking forward to seeing you."
"Old Dean, please don't call me that. You can just call me Xiao Qin. If you call me Director, I, as a student, will be embarrassed!"
"Hahaha, Director Qin, it's okay. You are an official now, and I am just an ordinary citizen. And we still have to abide by some rules in front of children. Oh, by the way, they are the two promising young people I mentioned to you before. I brought them here for you to meet them today." Dean Zhang Benchu said with a smile, and then introduced Chu Yunhao and Wu Yanzi to Qin Lixia.
"Hello, Director Qin! I am Chu Yunhao."
"Hello, Xiao Chu! Nice to meet you."
"Hello, Director Qin! I am Wu Yanzi."
"Hello, Xiao Wu! Nice to meet you two."
Director Qin Lixia shook hands with Chu Yunhao and Wu Yanzi in turn and greeted them cordially. Her tone was amiable and made people feel very warm.
"Come in! We talked about this in the office."
Qin Lixia said this as she led the three people into the office building of the Health Committee.
Chu Yunhao and Wu Yanzi followed Dean Zhang Benchu to the Nanshi Health Care Committee, and Dean Zhang Benchu told them the reason for coming to the Nanshi Health Care Committee. It turned out that the reason why Director Qin Lixia of the Nanshi Health Care Committee invited Dean Zhang Benchu to come was mainly because she hoped that he could provide some business guidance and training to some Chinese medicine experts in the Health Care Committee. In addition, Dean Zhang Benchu promised Director Qin Lixia that he would bring a young man familiar with computer professional technology to assist Director Qin Lixia in handling some work affairs on the computer network. So he thought of Chu Yunhao and brought Chu Yunhao here. Of course, Director Qin Lixia also promised that if the work of helping went smoothly, she would definitely keep a record of this favor.
