After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 479 Zhao Yuntao Seeks Treasure
Zhang Wenzhong knew his family's affairs very well. Even if his wife didn't tell him, Zhang Wenzhong knew it. It must be that his daughter Zhang Panpan said something that irritated his wife or did something extreme. Otherwise, after Dr. Xu's previous treatment, although Meimei has not fully recovered, her current physical condition has stabilized a lot and she would definitely not faint.
Although there had been some conflicts between Zhang Wenzhong's daughter and his wife in the past, fortunately nothing serious had happened. It was also known that it was Zhang Panpan who was causing trouble every time. Whenever Zhang Wenzhong scolded Zhang Panpan for these things, his wife would always defend her daughter and tell him not to interfere, saying that the child was still young. In order to obey his wife, Zhang Wenzhong gave up.
But this time, Zhang Wenzhong felt that his daughter Zhang Panpan had really gone too far. Not only did she make her aunt, who treated her as her own daughter, faint from anger, but she also didn't say any words of concern after her aunt woke up, and she didn't even show any apology. So Zhang Wenzhong was really furious when he saw Zhang Panpan.
Zhang Panpan said confidently, "That's right, can you blame me for her fainting? It's been so many years, you know that she is just a sickly person."
When Zhang Wenzhong heard what Zhang Panpan said, he could no longer control his emotions. He was immediately furious and took off his slippers and wanted to throw them at his daughter.
Zhang Panpan saw that her father was really angry this time and was a little scared. She quickly took a step and ran to the other side of the bed. She instinctively hid behind Zhang Meimei, because from childhood to adulthood, every time her father was angry, it was her aunt and stepmother who protected her, so this time was no exception!
Zhang Meimei saw Panpan hiding behind her and opened her arms to protect him. Zhang Wenzhong took off the slippers he was about to throw away, held them in his hand again, pointed at Zhang Panpan and said, "If you have the guts, come out here. If a son doesn't teach his father, I'm going to teach you a lesson today."
Zhang Panpan hid behind her aunt and stepmother, remaining indifferent, as if she had found her own umbrella of protection. She still looked cold and stern at Zhang Wenzhong.
Zhang Wenzhong became even angrier when he saw Zhang Panpan's expression at that moment, and immediately prepared to walk around the bed to teach this rebellious girl a lesson.
Zhang Meimei saw that the situation was difficult to control, so she pretended to be angry and said quickly: "Zhang Wenzhong, please stop. How can you be so mean to a child? Put down the slippers in your hand! Besides, Dr. Xu is still here. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"
Zhang Wenzhong saw that Meimei was angry, and fearing that he would make his wife angry again, he quickly put down the slippers in his hand, looked at Xu Boan again, and said embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Xu, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you with the ugly things in my family. I was really a little too excited just now."
Xu Bo'an said calmly, "Every family has its own problems. Who doesn't have some scandals? Well, let your wife rest for a while and recover a little, so that it will be convenient for the next treatment."
Zhang Wenzhong nodded in response, and the two of them walked out of the bedroom and came to the living room.
Zhang Panpan, who had been hiding behind her aunt and stepmother just now, was too lazy to pay attention to her aunt and stepmother at this moment. She watched her father go out and carefully followed her father and slipped away.
After the two sat on the sofa, Zhang Wenzhong personally made tea for Xu Bo'an and handed it to him. Just as he was about to say something to thank him, Xu Bo'an spoke first, "You said earlier that you have found all the herbs needed to treat burns. Take them out. Now is a good time to take a look. While your wife is resting, it's a good time to prepare some medicine."
After hearing what Xu Bo'an said, Zhang Wenzhong slapped his forehead lightly and said, "Look at my memory. It's been confused because of that girl. You drink some tea and wait for a while. I'll get it right away." Then he got up and went to get the herbs.
Although Zhang Wenzhong was always very angry with Zhang Panpan, she was his own daughter after all and he could not just leave her alone.
Besides, he also knew that such a large scar could be a fatal injury to a teenage girl who loved beauty, otherwise a normal person would not have such a large tattoo on his neck.
Over the years, he not only took his wife to seek medical treatment everywhere, but to no avail. He also helped his daughter to find a famous doctor who could completely remove the burn scars. Every time, the doctor would give some plasters or some herbs to be applied directly on the neck, and then said that it would work after a period of time at home, but it didn't work much after applying.
Once in Kyoto, they finally met a famous doctor who performed skin grafting surgery. The doctor recommended skin grafting, but Zhang Wenzhong and his wife thought that not only would the child suffer, but other parts of the body would also be left with scars. So they thought about trying more. If they could find a scar remover that could directly remove the scar, that would be great. If they really couldn't find one, it wouldn't be too late to do the skin grafting surgery after they graduated from university, so they kept putting it off.
Zhang Wenzhong has also seen that his wife's condition has improved a lot under Xu Bo'an's treatment.
Zhang Wenzhong also wanted to give it a try to see if Xu Boan could treat the scar on his daughter's neck as well. If it was cured, she wouldn't have to suffer the pain of surgery in the future.
Are there any parents in the world who don’t care about their children? Zhang Wenzhong is no exception.
Zhang Wenzhong just got up to get the herbs when Xu Boan's phone rang. He saw the caller ID showed it was Zhao Yuntao. This guy is probably still in shock after what happened with the gold bricks, and probably doesn't dare to take on any big orders for the time being.
Xu Boan thought that this guy must be calling me to ask me about Da Mimi again. At the moment, he probably had no time to spare. When Xu Boan picked up the phone, he heard Zhao Yuntao say, "Boss Xu, help me. Do you have any new stuff? The auction is short of the finale items recently. If you have any, please leave one for me!"
Hearing Zhao Yunta's words, Xu Bo'an thought that this kid was much braver than he thought, and immediately joked: "You kid, have you forgotten the last kidnapping incident? How long has it been since then? Your mind has become active again, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? Don't you know how to be quiet for a while? You really forget the pain after the scar has healed!"
Zhao Yuntao smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, to be honest, I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. I was really scared last time. I had nightmares for several days after returning home. But we have to go on with our lives. We can't just shrink back.
If an auction house wants to grow, it still needs to have something to show off, right? Besides, I heard that my idol Da Mimi likes to go to the auction house to buy some novelties. If my auction house grows, Da Mimi will come to patronize it, and who knows, we might even meet by chance or something."
Xu Boan was speechless when he heard what Zhao Yuntao said, thinking that this kid was really poisoned by Da Mimi and could not forget to chase stars at any time. At the same time, he felt that Zhao Yuntao was also a courageous person.
To be honest, if an ordinary person encountered a kidnapping incident like the one Zhao Yuntao had last time, he would have to stay in shock for at least a year and a half before he could start taking big orders and doing big business. But this guy adjusted his mentality in a short period of time and started doing business himself.
Xu Bo'an instantly thought of how many treasures he had, including calligraphy and paintings, antique vases, gold and silver jewelry, Polygonum multiflorum medicinal materials, monkey wine, jade beds, etc.
Xu Boan certainly couldn't tell anyone that he had a lot of treasures. Otherwise, if others knew about it, everyone would be afraid that it was ill-gotten gains. How could he play then? After thinking for a while, he said, "I do have two rare treasures here. It depends on whether you can swallow them."
When Zhao Yuntao heard what Xu Bo'an said, his face lit up with joy, and then he hurriedly said: "Mr. Xu, I only need one thing for now, preferably a medicinal herb. Recently I heard that some big guys want to pay a high price to get precious medicinal herbs. Please keep other good things for me." Xu Bo'an knew that Zhao Yuntao was afraid that he had too many things and it would be bad if he was targeted by those criminals. Although he was brave, he was not a fool, and he still understood the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure.
Xu Boan smiled and said, "What a coincidence, both of my items are medicinal herbs!"
Zhao Yuntao laughed and said, "I knew I had found the right person. I can make a lot of money again."
Zhao Yuntao actually didn't hold out much hope. After all, Xu Bo'an was neither a collector nor someone from the circle. At most, he was just a regular customer. But there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he had to cast a wide net and try every possible means.
But of course, this is not the right thing to say. For businessmen, flattering a mature person is a basic skill! It is impossible for him to flatter someone and hit the horse's hoof. If it happens, it is most likely intentional. No doubt about it!
At this moment, Xu Boan saw Zhang Wenzhong coming over with the medicinal herbs and putting them on the table.
Xu Boan then said to Zhao Yuntao: "Okay, let's leave it at that for now. I have something to do now. We'll contact each other later."
Zhao Yuntao responded: "Okay, then Mr. Xu, you are busy, I will wait for your call!"
Xu Bo'an said "hmm" and hung up the phone.
As soon as I hung up the phone with Zhao Yuntao, I saw Zhang Wenzhong standing beside me with shining eyes and asked, "Medicinal herbs? Mr. Xu, do you have a pharmacy? Specializing in selling medicinal herbs?"
The phone call between Xu Bo'an and Zhao Yuntao just now happened to be overheard by Zhang Wenzhong who was walking over to get medicinal herbs.
You have to know that Zhang Wenzhong has been traveling to various cities and hospitals with his wife and children in recent years in order to find famous doctors and obtain famous medicines. As a result, Zhang Wenzhong now has an occupational disease. Whenever he hears about precious medicinal materials, his eyes light up to see if he can use them.
What Zhang Wenzhong himself could not have imagined was that because of his long-term search for medical treatment and drug requests, many people knew that he was deeply involved in certain medicines. When these people needed help, they would even ask Zhang Wenzhong for help. Many people also established good relationships with Zhang Wenzhong, became friends with him, or even did business with him, which helped promote the development of Zhang Wenzhong's career.
This made Zhang Wenzhong very happy. Later, whenever he came across precious medicinal materials, he would always think about trying to get them, just in case he could use them someday!
Xu Boan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, you really think highly of me. I'm very busy at work every day, so how can I have extra energy to do other things?"
Zhang Wenzhong heard Xu Bo'an's words and asked, "I'm so sorry. I just came over and heard you say on the phone that you have medicinal herbs, so I wanted to ask you,
Xu Boan also expressed his understanding after hearing this, and said to Zhang Wenzhong: "Oh, my friend works in an auction house. He wanted some rare medicinal herbs, so he called me to try his luck! It just so happens that I have a small collection! I'm going to give it to him in case of emergency."
Zhang Wenzhong said with great interest: "Oh? So you have it? Would you mind showing it to me?"
How could Xu Boan carry such things casually? Besides, the herbs he had on hand might not be exactly what Zhang Wenzhong needed. In order to avoid a wasted trip, he said to Zhang Wenzhong, "The things are still in the car. What I have on hand is a hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum. If you want to see it, we are free now. I will go to the car to get it."
When Zhang Wenzhong heard that it was Polygonum multiflorum, his expression became extremely excited. He quickly stood up and walked to Xu Bo'an, holding Xu Bo'an's hands with both hands and said excitedly: "Doctor Xu, do you really have this thing called Polygonum multiflorum?
This is such a coincidence, you know? This is exactly what I need. I have been to hospitals and auction houses in various cities over the past few years just to find this kind of treasure. If it is convenient now, my driver happens to be here, you can just give him the key and let him run errands. "
Xu Boan certainly couldn't agree to let the driver pick it up, because his herbs wouldn't be in the car at all. Xu Boan's saying that they were in the car was just an excuse, because his herbs were of course in the bonsai world.
After hearing what Zhang Wenzhong said, Xu Boan said, "Don't bother the driver. I put it in a hidden place. Even if I give him the car keys, he probably won't be able to find it for a while. I'd better go."
Zhang Wenzhong was anxious for a moment, but he came to his senses the moment Xu Boyan politely refused. How could he trust such a valuable thing to a stranger?
It's like you are drinking with someone you just met, and he asks his driver to take one million cash from your car. You will definitely feel uneasy.
Zhang Wenzhong heard Xu Boan's words and said awkwardly: "Look, I'm so confused. How can I just put such a valuable thing in the car casually? That would really trouble Mr. Xu!"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, he went downstairs and walked out of the door. Just as he walked out of the yard of Zhang Wenzhong's villa, when he turned the corner, he bumped into a woman who was walking towards him.
Xu Boan humbly apologized, "I'm really sorry, ma'am."
The woman looked down at her shoes, patted her clothes, and then said dissatisfiedly: "Really, don't you know how to walk carefully?"
Xu Boan thought to himself, is this just because I was careless? I was walking and looking down at my phone, and I bumped into someone. I didn't blame you for throwing yourself into my arms, but you blame me? The ancients were right, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise"!
After a brief complaint, Xu Boan ignored her and continued walking towards the garage.
He didn't notice that the woman turned the corner and also entered Zhang Wenzhong's house. (End of this chapter)
