Serial sin

Chapter 358 Not Made Up
Tan Congbo is dead, and his wife and daughter have all gone abroad. It will be difficult to find out anything from this line.

Feng Kailin looked at Xiao Yuanshan and Ouyang Shuangjie who had been silent all this time, he threw out two cigarettes: "What happened to Tan Congbo was an accident, Ouyang, it's not your fault."

Ouyang Shuangjie looked up at Feng Kailin: "If I hadn't come to the door, he wouldn't have died."

Xiao Yuanshan patted Ouyang Shuangjie on the shoulder: "Ouyang, sometimes you are too serious and like to carry everything on your shoulders. This is the same thing. If Tan Congbo didn't make mistakes, he wouldn't It would bring me such a tragic ending, it's a pity that a good Miao Medical Hall collapsed like this."

Feng Kailin said: "Miao Medical Hall will not collapse, nor can it. Tan Congbo's family has run away, but doesn't Miao Medical Hall still have a major shareholder?"

Xiao Yuanshan's eyes lit up: "Duan Daqi?"

Feng Kailin nodded: "Miao Medical Hall is a well-known local enterprise in our Lin City. It has positive and far-reaching significance for our development of national pharmaceutical industry, so Miao Medical Hall cannot collapse. At present, only Duan Daqi can clean up this stall in a legitimate way. Ouyang, you are responsible for Duan Daqi's work, he is a businessman, and he would not like to see his investment go in vain!"

Ouyang Shuangjie responded, and Feng Kailin asked Xiao Yuanshan: "Have you found anything in the book "History of Miao Medicine"?"

Xiao Yuanshan said: "Well, I have already found out that "History of Miao Medicine" was written by Tan Congbo and invited two pens in the city. Tan Congbo also invited an expert on the history of Miao nationality, that is, the author of that book. The consultant is Meng Xianhai, and he personally wrote the articles on "Shexiangfang". The book was written in a hurry, less than a month before and after."

"Meng Xianhai? I've heard of this person. He is a professor of history at the Normal University and an expert on folklore. He also has a lot of research on the history of the Miao and Buyi people. More importantly, he has a little experience in Chinese medicine and Chinese pharmacy. Alas, so An article by an expert and scholar can naturally dispel Du Jun's doubts."

Xiao Yuanshan said: "I'm going to get in touch with these people today and listen to what they have to say."

After leaving Feng Kailin's office, Ouyang Shuangjie went to Duan's house, while Xiao Yuanshan went to the Normal University, but he wanted to meet Meng Xianhai.

Meng Xianhai was indeed a pedant, wearing an old Chinese tunic suit with two pens in the jacket pocket, a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, and walked into the office with his hands behind his back. Xiao Yuanshan and Xu Lin, who were on the sofa, pushed the glasses on the bridge of their noses, and sat down on the sofa: "What can you do for me?"

Xiao Yuanshan smiled slightly: "Professor Meng, you should be familiar with this book, right?"

Xiao Yuanshan put the "History of Miao Medicine" on the coffee table, and gently pushed it in front of Meng Xianhai.

Meng Xianhai just glanced at it, but did not reach out to take it: "I am in charge of editing this book. I am a consultant. I mainly wrote a brief history of the development of Miao medicine. Is there any problem?" Xiao Yuanshan picked up the book: "This book has No problem, I don’t know, I just want to ask Professor Meng, is there a real story about the ‘Luxury Fragrance’?” Meng Xianhai said: “You have said that it is a legend, who knows if the legend is true Woolen cloth?"

Xiao Yuanshan sneered: "Professor Meng, what you wrote is a history book, not a fairy tale. Can a legend be regarded as history?"

Meng Xianhai was very displeased, no matter how he is considered a well-known scholar, he could not be run on by Xiao Yuanshan.

"No one stipulates that legends cannot be quoted in historical records, right? Besides, the lifespans of Concubine Ding and Qianlong have been verified, and they are indeed long-lived. In addition, King Miao Xianbao is also recorded in Qing history, and from time to time The above deduction is also very consistent." After speaking, he ran to the bookcase and turned it up, Xu Lin looked at Xiao Yuanshan, Xiao Yuanshan signaled him not to worry.

Meng Xianhai came over with two thread-bound books: "Look, this is the history of the Qing Dynasty. If you look here, there is a record of King Miao's offering of treasures. '" He had already put on reading glasses: "Here, there is still here. From this time, it should be dedicated to Lord Qianlong. Look at this book again. It is the first time that King Miaojiang saw Emperor Kangxi. This sentence, "The emperor is afraid of getting sick, give Concubine Ding..." This means that Lord Kangxi was afraid of taking the wrong medicine and would fall ill, so he transferred the gift from King Miao to Concubine Ding. Think about it, this is not a proper way to dedicate it to Emperor Kangxi Is it also a pill?"

Xiao Yuanshan took it over and took a look, it was "Drafts of Qing History".

Meng Xianhai said: "This is an authoritative book on Qing history. Although I have quoted some legends in the book, but referring to this "Draft of Qing History", I wrote it as a textual research on Qing history. Director Xiao, I should not Is it a fabrication?"

Xiao Yuanshan was dumbfounded for a moment. Meng Xianhai was right. If we refer to the records in the "Drafts of Qing History" based on the legends of the Miao people, we really cannot say that Meng Xianhai was fabricated.

Xiao Yuanshan asked again: "Professor Meng, I heard that this book was funded by Tan Congbo?"

Meng Xianhai coughed twice: "Director Xiao, you also know that it's not easy to learn. To be honest, books like "History of Miao Medicine" have no economic value. Its real value is the influence of Miao doctors. , so if this kind of book wants to be published, it is impossible to rely on sponsorship like those popular books. Isn’t Lao Tan just making Miao medicine? We are also doing publicity for them. He pays some money Publishing a book is considered a good deed, isn’t it?”

Xiao Yuanshan nodded: "So you took the initiative to ask him for sponsorship, saying that you want to publish such a book, not him paying for you to publish such a book, right?" Meng Xianhai widened his eyes: "Of course, who do you think I am, Meng Xianhai, oh, I can write whatever I want for money? I am a literati, and I have my own principles and ethics."

Now Xiao Yuanshan was also a little confused. Meng Xianhai shouldn't be lying like this. If he proposed it on his own initiative, how could it be such a coincidence?
"Actually, if Lao Tan was more forthright, this book could be two years earlier. I have already prepared all the materials."

Xiao Yuanshan looked at Meng Xianhai: "Two years earlier? Could it be that you started preparing this book ten years ago?"

Meng Xianhai smiled: "That's right. Otherwise, do you think you can finish this book in a month? It's not just a matter of random scribbling. Quoting scriptures, every word and sentence must have a reason and a source."

Xiao Yuanshan and Xu Lin sat for a while and left.

"Xiao Ju, it seems that Meng Xianhai is not aware of what Tan Congbo did, he is just a scholar." Xu Lin said.

Xiao Yuanshan said while driving: "Tan Congbo took advantage of him, do you remember what he said, if Lao Tan was more straightforward, this book would have come out two years earlier, it should be two years before Du Jun was deceived by Meng Xianhai They have already completed the data collection for this book, and only a little bit of writing work is missing, so they were able to make this book available in just one month. However, this incident illustrates two problems. The first is Tan Congbo was not the instigator of this scam, otherwise he could have done it more perfectly! If this book could have been published two years earlier, and Tan Congbo sponsored it in someone else's name, he would not have involved himself in it at all !"
