Six o'clock in the evening, a private restaurant.
Duan Chengru, Duan Yukai, Xie Feng, the beautiful secretary and Lu Zheng, a total of five people, gathered in a small box.
Duan Yukai first raised his glass and toasted Lu Zheng respectfully. He drank two ounces of Maotai in one gulp.
Lu Zheng had a drink with him, but there was only half a liang of wine in the glass.
Then there was Duan Chengru. Just before serving the dishes, he couldn't help but ask Lu Zheng for advice on how to draw blood with silver needles.
Then... the explanation Lu Zheng gave him made him almost think that Lu Zheng was still a liar. If his son hadn't tried the method himself, he wouldn't have believed it at all.
"Mr. Lu, are you really self-taught with your medical skills?" Duan Chengru asked in disbelief, "And you also developed Qi sense? Can it be introduced into the human body and draw out residual blood?"
Lu Zheng shrugged, "Although it's a bit unbelievable, it's not something shameful."
"No, no, this is really..." Duan Chengru blinked, not knowing what to say, "So many methods of traditional Chinese medicine actually require the cooperation of Qi sense, right? Is the legendary Zhu Youke also related to Qi sense?"
"Most of them are not needed, but some of them sound more magical, and they are indeed so." Lu Zheng nodded and said, "As for Zhu Youke, there is too little information handed down. It may have something to do with Qi sensing and psychological treatment, so I don't know much about it. Clear."
"Like treating cancer?" the beautiful secretary asked.
Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "That's using Chinese medicine to regulate the body. It's also related to the patient's own energy and immunity, but has nothing to do with the sense of energy."
The beautiful secretary nodded repeatedly and looked at Lu Zheng with stars in her eyes.
Duan Chengru asked again, "I wonder where Mr. Lu is employed now? I have a few friends in Beidu. If Mr. Lu is interested..."
"Mr. Duan is interested, I don't need it."
Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "I am self-taught in Chinese medicine. It is just a hobby. I have no intention of becoming a doctor. What's more, I don't have a medical qualification certificate."
Duan Chengru, "..."
Looking at Lu Zheng, Duan Chengru didn't know what emotion he should show for the moment.
The idea of practicing qi to maintain health has been around since ancient times. Duan Chengru himself has also learned qigong. Of course, this qigong is not the kind of deceptive qigong that resembles super powers. It just strengthens the qi in the body and makes one healthier.
This kind of Qi is actually the so-called Jing Qi Shen Qi, which is a person's breath. Under normal circumstances, even oneself cannot feel it, let alone freely manipulate or introduce it into other people's bodies.
Duan Chengru had never heard of anyone practicing qigong to the point where he could cure diseases and save people with qigong in his life. If it had been the 1980s, he would have called the police directly.
Therefore, with Duan Yukai's medical records in front and Lu Zheng's explanation behind, he was somewhat subverting the three views. When he just said that he would introduce Lu Zheng's work, he did not want Lu Zheng to practice treating diseases and let him experience it.
Duan Chengru couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that Mr. Lu doesn't practice medicine!"
Lu Zheng shook his head, "It's no pity. Using Qi to treat diseases is not as magical as the legend says. Just like silver needles drawing blood, modern medicine can also cure it. Most terminal diseases that cannot be cured by modern medicine are not cured by Qi. Method."
Duan Chengru nodded when he heard this and agreed with Lu Zheng's point of view.
That is to say, Lin Wan was not present, otherwise Lu Zheng would definitely roll his eyes.
Lu Zheng didn't want to appear extraordinary in front of Duan Chengru and his son. After all, Duan Chengru was a master of traditional Chinese medicine and had worked in Beidu for many years. He obviously had high-level connections. He didn't want to get involved. It would be easy to get 404.
The last time he took action was just because he thought Duan Yukai was not a bad person and couldn't bear to let him become paralyzed, but he didn't want to get himself involved in this matter.
After fooling Duan Chengru over, the few of them can have a happy meal.
At the banquet, Duan Yukai originally wanted to ask about the beauty pill, but saw that Xie Feng was present, so he endured it.
…
A dinner where the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
After everyone had almost finished eating, Xie Feng couldn't help but look at a suitcase placed in the corner of the box.
Lu Zheng smiled, and Duan Yukai saw everyone put down their bowls quickly, so he asked the waiter to remove the leftovers and replace them with a pot of Longjing.
"Don't be in a hurry to drink tea. Mr. Xie, please take a look at the goods I brought this time."
Pushing the teapot aside, Lu Zheng put the suitcase on the table, opened the zipper, and a scent of earth came out.
After opening the box, everyone poked their heads in and took a breath of cold air.
"Three wild ginseng plants are all over a hundred years old. One weighs a pound, and two weigh more than eighty taels."
"The two pieces of Polygonatum japonica were picked from the cliff. They are less than a month old. They are very fresh."
"Seven Poria cocos plants seem ordinary, but they are old and it is difficult to find ones with magical effects. These are more than fifty years old. These two plants should be almost a hundred years old."
"The two pieces of Ganoderma lucidum were picked from the roots of ancient trees. They have grown for more than a hundred years. They are full of concentrated essence. You can try the efficacy when you go back. Don't accidentally take too much."
Lu Zheng introduced them one by one.
Xie Feng looked at a box full of medicines, his eyes were shining, and he nodded repeatedly. Just as he was about to ask his secretary to transfer the money, he saw Duan Chengru's eyes widening on the side, and he reached out and took a ginseng.
"Mr. Duan..."
Xie Feng stretched out his hand but did not dare to stop him.
Although Huairentang is not afraid of Nansheng Group, Duan Chengru is old, senior, and has connections from above. It is better not to offend him if possible.
"This is newly picked wild ginseng!" Duan Chengru muttered to himself.
Although the wild ginseng brought by Lu Zheng had been cleaned, it still had the fragrance of earth, which was easy to distinguish.
Duan Chengru swallowed, couldn't help but picked up a ginseng tendon and put it in his mouth, which made Xie Feng feel distressed.
"What a ginseng!" Duan Chengru's eyes lit up, "It's really a century-old wild ginseng!"
Seeing that Duan Yukai's eyes were shining and he seemed ready to speak, Xie Feng coughed dryly and turned to Lu Zheng and asked, "Mr. Lu, are you still going to pay the previous price?"
Lu Zheng nodded, "Of course."
"Xiao Liu, transfer the money to Mr. Lu, and the other three ginseng plants will be counted as one pound."
"yes!"
Secretary Liu nodded and immediately transferred the money to Lu Zheng according to the price discussed earlier with Lu Zheng.
Ten seconds later, the money arrived.
Duan Yukai watched from the side but did not speak after all.
Don't worry, if there is one, then there are two. Anyway, I have established a relationship with Lu Zheng, and we will talk about it later.
…
Had a meal and drank tea.
It was around eight o'clock in the evening when everyone came out of the private restaurant.
After declining the offers from both parties to send him away, Lu Zheng unlocked a shared bicycle again, leaving everyone with a handsome back.
…
After returning home, Lu Zheng took a shower and was about to call Lin Wan when news from various platforms popped up on his phone.
"Zhao Xiaodao was surprised to encounter a Siberian tiger!"
