Lu Feng rubbed his eyebrows.
"So...the reason why you are waiting for me here for so long is because of what happened in the morning?"
Lu Feng was also numb.
These old men are really stubborn.
If he didn't agree to them, they refused to leave and waited here for an entire afternoon.
Li Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I think we can talk again."
"Little friend Lu, would you like to give me no more time for dinner so that we can chat while we eat?"
Hearing this, other members of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association also looked at Lu Feng eagerly.
Lu Feng opened his mouth, but finally nodded and agreed.
"That's okay."
Although Lu Feng still didn't want to attend any East Asian Medical Skills Exchange Conference, there were so many elderly men waiting for him dryly all afternoon.
If you don't want to eat even one meal, it would be a bit disrespectful.
There is a saying that goes well: Don’t do things too far.
…
Soon, everyone arrived at a restaurant.
After the food was served, everyone ate and chatted. The people from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association were all veterans, and they quickly made the atmosphere at the dinner table lively.
From this, Li Chen also officially entered the topic.
"Little friend Lu, the reason why you were unwilling to represent the Dragon Kingdom at the East Asian Medical Exchange Conference was because you felt there was too much pressure?"
"If that's the case, you actually don't have to worry. Our Dragon Country's results are already very bad, and we're not afraid of getting even worse."
"But what we are afraid of is that there is no hope!"
Li Chen looked at Lu Feng with bright eyes and said, "From the perspective of our Longguo Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, you, little friend Lu, are our hope!"
"In the current Longguo Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, there really isn't a single talent among the younger generation that can be put to great use. Even us old guys... can't compare to the island country and the stick country."
"So, we need a variable."
Others also spoke in agreement.
"Yes, Little Friend Lu, your medical skills are unheard of, but they are amazing. I believe you can bring new life to our Longguo Traditional Chinese Medicine Association."
"That's true, Little Friend Lu, as long as you can represent us at the East Asian Medical Skills Exchange Conference, even if you lose, we will have no regrets!"
"..."
Lu Feng was a little helpless when he was told that he shook his head and said: "Actually, I do have some pressure, but this is not the main reason why I don't want to go."
Li Chen was stunned and rolled his eyes as if he thought of something.
"I understand, Xiaoyou Lu. You think it is a waste of time for you to attend the East Asian Medical Exchange Conference in vain, right?"
"Don't worry, we can sign a contract now. As long as you are willing to participate, you can get a generous reward!"
"We will never let you down in terms of treatment!"
Lu Feng rolled his eyes. President Li is too clever, isn't he?
"That's not what I meant. I just think... I'm not a person who likes to show off."
"Actually, you can also see that I was unwilling to come forward to treat the patient at the beginning this time. If I didn't have no choice in the end, I wouldn't have been discovered by you."
Everyone in the venue immediately looked at each other, and Li Chen was speechless for a moment.
He didn't expect that the reason why Lu Feng kept rejecting him was because of such a simple reason.
Opening his mouth, Li Chen sighed and said, "So, I take it for granted."
Lu Feng nodded and said, "Yes, so please don't invite me again. This is a waste of both our time and is meaningless."
"I'm very grateful to you for inviting me to this meal, but after eating, we should go back to our respective homes. You old gentlemen, continue to look for suitable materials to make, and I will go home and sleep."
After Lu Feng finished speaking, he continued to pick up vegetables and eat.
However, Li Chen asked a question after a brief silence.
"Little friend Lu, I want to ask you a question. You were reluctant to treat the patient at the beginning this time, but you were willing to do it in the end. Is it really just because you were afraid of trouble?"
Lu Feng was stunned, then nodded as he should, "Of course it is."
"Let me ask Little Friend Lu again, is there really no reason at all? Is it because you can't bear to see those patients tortured by their illnesses, and you don't want to see them die like this?"
Lu Feng was about to answer, but fell silent again.
to be honest.
He was afraid of trouble. It would be a lie to say that Lu Feng really had no sympathy for those patients.
If he really had no sympathy for those patients, he would have done so after he had verified the efficacy of the Sky-Swallowing Bottle after the initial period of experiments. He could have just walked away and not bothered anymore.
When the time comes, you can just tell a lie and get away easily.
But Lu Feng did not do this.
Instead, he stayed at the animal husbandry station for two consecutive days and cured all the patients who were tortured by the patients.
Li Chen smiled and said, "Sure enough, I admire Lu Xiaoyou's kindness as a doctor."
Li Chen paused and continued: "In this case, Lu Xiaoyou must not want to see the patient tortured by the disease, or even die because of it."
"Therefore, in order to ensure that more people can defeat the disease, the inheritance of medical skills is extremely important."
Li Chen looked at Lu Feng and said, "Little friend Lu, what do you think is the most fundamental thing in a country?"
Lu Feng thought for a while and said uncertainly: "Is the country powerful?"
Li Chen slowly shook his head, "It's culture and inheritance."
Lu Feng was shocked.
Li Chen's expression gradually became serious, "If a country wants to prosper, it is not enough to have strong national power. If only strong national power is empty inside, it is externally strong but internally weak, and it is false strength."
"The so-called inner meaning is the culture and heritage of a country. Only when the culture and heritage can be completely preserved and carried forward can the spiritual core of a country be strong."
"This is the most fundamental thing about the country."
Lu Feng opened his mouth, really shocked by Li Chen's words.
After thinking about it carefully, what he said does make sense.
"Mr. Li, what exactly do you want to say?"
Li Chen smiled and said slowly: "What I want to say is that our country's traditional Chinese medicine is the most important part of our Dragon Country's culture and inheritance."
"Once upon a time, people all over the world made pilgrimages to our Dragon Kingdom to learn from our Dragon Kingdom's advanced technology and our world-leading medical skills."
"But now, our traditional Chinese medicine is gradually declining. If we don't work hard to protect it and promote it."
"Then this most important inheritance of our nation will face the desperate situation of being cut off."
