Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1331: A Master is a Master

The three of them laughed. Yuan Hongping invited them inside to have tea. There was a reason why he invited Xu Chunliang over today. Yuan Hongping had recently obtained a few oracle bone rubbings and made a special trip to ask Xu Chunliang for advice.

Xu Chunliang felt a little strange. Few people knew that he understood oracle bone inscriptions. How did Yuan Hongping know this?

Yuan Hongping did not hide it and told Xu Chunliang that Bai Mushan knew him before he died. The two had talked about it once. Yuan Hongping complimented Bai Mushan as the top expert in oracle bone inscriptions in the country and that no one in the country could match him. Bai Mushan said he did not deserve it. In fact, there was a young man in Dongzhou who had achieved more than his achievements in oracle bone inscriptions. This person was Xu Chunliang.

Xu Chunliang thought that Bai Mushan was dead anyway, so he had no idea whether he had said anything or not, but he did become interested in the contents of Yuan Hongping's rubbings.

Yuan Hongping showed the rubbings to Xu Chunliang. Xu Chunliang picked them up and took a look. They were all parts of "Huangdi Neijing Tianyang Pian". It seems that a lot of them were lost to the outside world at that time.

  After reading it, Xu Chunliang shook his head and said, "Mr. Yuan thinks highly of me. I only recognize a few of them." He pointed out a few of the characters and thought to himself, what is the purpose of Yuan Hongping taking out the rubbings? It is unlikely that he is really asking for advice. Is he testing himself? Is Yuan Hongping also related to the case of stealing dragon bones?

Yuan Hongping said, "I was just curious. A friend gave it to me and I wanted to frame it and hang it up, but I was worried that I wouldn't understand the content and would be laughed at by experts later."

Xu Chunliang said: "Although I don't know all of them, I can conclude that these rubbings are related to medicine. To be honest with you, Mr. Yuan, we collected a lot of dragon bones in Huichuntang back then, but we didn't know how precious they were at that time. They were used as medicine."

Lu Ming said: "I have heard about this matter. Later, Mr. Xu donated all the dragon bones to the Dongzhou Museum."

Yuan Hongping said: "Mr. Xu's character is admirable."

Xu Chunliang said: "Mr. Yuan, may I ask, who gave you this rubbing?"

Yuan Hongping said: "An old friend of mine, he has the same last name as you, his name is Xu Dongya."

Xu Chunliang thought Yuan Hongping would not speak out directly, but he did not expect him to speak out directly. Xu Chunliang deliberately said, "I seem to have heard of the name Xu Dongya."

Yuan Hongping smiled and said, "An old friend of mine will come to Dongzhou soon. You will definitely have a chance to meet him. Speaking of him, he is definitely a legendary figure."

Xu Chunliang thought to himself, the Thousand Gates Four Heavenly Kings are of course legendary, and now he has seen the Thousand Gates Four Heavenly Kings, and two of them have come to Dongzhou, and he doesn't know what kind of situation they want to stir up. But no matter what they want to do, there should be no possibility of a head-on confrontation between him and them in the short term.

It is hard to say whether Yuan Hongping is an enemy or a friend. When I first met him, I thought he wanted to make money in the name of spreading Chinese culture. Later, after getting to know him, I found that this person had never done anything illegal, was very skillful in his work, and was keen on social charity.

Yuan Hongping made the tea and asked them to enjoy it slowly. He picked up the host's cup, took a sip of cinnamon, and said softly, "Director Xu, your work has not been going well recently, right?"

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "A master is a master. I really can't hide anything from you."

Lu Mingdao: "Master Yuan knows everything about astronomy, geography, Zhouyi and the Eight Trigrams."

Yuan Hongping smiled and said, "Director Lu, please don't say that. You are all atheists. I am not reading Director Xu's fortune. I just heard some rumors recently."

Lu Ming said: "Just laugh off the rumors." He was of course aware that his younger brother had been plagued by rumors recently. Various signs indicated that Xu Chunliang would have a hard time getting away with it this time. This was also the consensus of many people in the system. Although the scandal between Xu Chunliang and Mei Ruxue had been clarified, it was an indisputable fact that Wang Jiancheng and Mei Ruxue had broken off their engagement.

Yuan Hongping asked, "Is Director Xu going to leave Dongzhou?"

Xu Chunliang looked up at Yuan Hongping and felt a little surprised. He just had the idea of ​​leaving Dongzhou, and only a few people knew about it. So where did Yuan Hongping get the information?

Lu Ming was also surprised, but he thought that it was a good choice for Xu Chunliang to leave Dongzhou. After all, Xu Chunliang had offended Wang Jianming, and during Wang Jianming's tenure, it would be difficult for Xu Chunliang to have any chance of promotion.

Xu Chunliang asked: "Where did Mr. Yuan get this information?"

Yuan Hongping said: "It's just my personal inference. A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall."

Xu Chunliang laughed: "Is my situation so bad?"

Lu Ming thought to himself, "Isn't that bad? You even offended Wang Jianming."

Yuan Hongping smiled and said, "Does Director Xu know Chen Qianfan?"

Xu Chunliang nodded and said, "He and I are classmates."

Yuan Hongping asked: "Do you know him?"

Xu Chunliang realized that the main reason Yuan Hongping invited him here was for Chen Qianfan. He took a sip of tea and said, "I don't dare to say that I understand anyone easily, and I am too lazy to understand others. After all, people should maintain an appropriate sense of boundaries between each other."

Lu Mingdao: "I agree. It's not easy to understand others. Everyone has two sides, and they behave differently in front of others and behind their backs."

Yuan Hongping said: "I believe you two should have heard that Wang Zhengdao's share in the China-Korea Industrial Park has been transferred to Qianfan Group. Previously, Chen Qianfan sold Qianfan Group to Xu Dongya, and he no longer holds shares in Qianfan Group."

Xu Chunliang asked: "Does Mr. Yuan have anything to do with this matter?"

Yuan Hongping nodded: "I own 20% of Qianfan Group's shares."

Xu Chunliang said: "Congratulations, congratulations, so Mr. Yuan has also joined the China-Korea Industrial Park project."

Yuan Hongping said: "To be honest, I just followed the investment and did not get involved in the specific operation and management. My real interest is to teach and educate people and promote Chinese culture."

Xu Chunliang sighed inwardly. He had met so many people, but it was rare to find someone like Yuan Hongping who could pretend to be cool to the end.

Lu Mingdao: "When does Mr. Yuan plan to start construction of the academy project?"

The future development of the Sino-Korean Industrial Park has little to do with the Cultural and Tourism Bureau, but the old crematorium land is closely related to Lu Ming. He has to supervise Yuan Hongping to use it for cultural and tourism projects, rather than to engage in real estate under the guise of selling sheep meat. After all, there have been too many tragic precedents in recent years. Yuan Hongping said: "We are already designing a plan, and we will start construction as soon as the plan is finalized."

Lu Mingxin said it was the same as if you didn’t say anything.

Yuan Hongping continued the previous topic and said, "Chen Qianfan is a very strange person. Since the transfer procedures were completed, I have been unable to contact him."

Xu Chunliang said that he had not contacted Chen Qianfan for a long time, and he didn't know what he was busy with now.

Yuan Hongping did not continue to dwell on this topic.

At this time, another guest came outside. Yuan Hongping asked them to wait for a moment and got up to go outside to greet them.

Xu Chunliang said: "Since Mr. Yuan has a distinguished guest, we will not bother him any more."

Lu Ming also stood up.

Yuan Hongping said, "You two don't have to leave in a hurry. This is my old friend Xu Dongya. Let's get to know each other. We will inevitably interact in the future."

After hearing what he said, Xu Chunliang gave up the idea of ​​leaving. He actually wanted to meet this great man from Qianmen.

Lu Ming doesn't know much about the affairs of the underworld. Now that Qianfan Group has entered Dongzhou in a high-profile manner, as the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau, he also wants to get to know Qianfan's CEO to see if there is an opportunity for in-depth cooperation.

Yuan Hongping walked into the tea room with a middle-aged man. Xu Chunliang was stunned when he saw the man. Lu Ming was also surprised. Why did this Xu Dongya look so much like Xu Chunliang's father?

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Dongya and Xu Jiaxuan look 80% similar, except that Xu Dongya looks more weathered, with gray hair, a stern face and a very different temperament from the cynical Xu Jiaxuan.

Lu Ming glanced at Xu Chunliang. In his opinion, Xu Dongya was most likely Xu Chunliang's relative, and could even be his uncle.

Xu Chunliang was also very puzzled. He had never heard his father say that he had a brother, and his grandfather had never mentioned that he had a son before he died. But they were too similar.

Xu Chunliang thinks Xu Jiaxuan and Xu Dongya look alike.

Lu Ming, a bystander, was looking for similarities between Xu Chunliang and Xu Dongya. They looked a bit alike. Lu Ming thought to himself that they must be from the same family. That's right! They were probably related by blood.

Yuan Hongping smiled at Xu Dongya and said, "Brother Dongya, let me introduce you. This is Director Lu of our Dongzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau."

Xu Dongya took the initiative to extend his hand and shook hands with Lu Ming. He said "nice to meet you" but there was still no smile on his face.

"Director Xu from the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce."

Xu Chunliang and Xu Dongya shook hands and felt that Xu Dongya's palms were broad, rough, and covered with calluses. Although he shook hands lightly, he could feel the other party's strength. This person must be a martial artist.

Xu Dongya looked directly at Xu Chunliang: "Director Xu is really young and promising."

Xu Chunliang said: "I am just an ordinary office worker. Mr. Xu is too kind to me."

A rare smile appeared at the corner of Xu Dongya's lips.

Yuan Hongping said, "We are all family, please take a seat."

Xu Chunliang said, "Don't bother me anymore. Director Lu and I still have some official business to attend to. We'll talk again when we have the chance."

Yuan Hongping said, "Let's eat first before leaving."

Xu Chunliang shook his head and smiled, "You guys can chat slowly."

Yuan Hongping came out to see him off, but Xu Dongya did not stand up.

After Xu Chunliang and Lu Ming left Hidden Dragon Academy, Lu Ming exclaimed: "What a resemblance! Do you think Xu Dongya looks a lot like your dad?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Why does it sound like you are scolding me?"

Lu Ming couldn't help laughing: "I didn't mean that. I was just telling the truth."

Xu Chunliang said: "My father has no brothers."

"What about the cousins?"

Xu Chunliang shook his head, he didn’t understand.

Lu Ming suggested: "Why don't you ask Lu Qi to help you check whether this Xu Dongya is related to you?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Brother Ming, I think we just talked about the topic of sense of boundaries."
