A Kind Thought Leads to Hundreds of Millions in Assets
After raising such an outstanding younger brother, he suddenly belongs to someone else’s family.
This won’t do.
“Little sister, I think you should just agree to your brother’s marriage to Yu Bingjie?”
Chen Dafu, who was standing nearby, also hurriedly tried to persuade Chen Yuting.
“I think Yu Bingjie is a good-looking girl with a good personality and is hardworking. Your brother won’t lose out by marrying her.”
Zhou Xiulan nodded repeatedly, echoing, “Yes, Bingjie, I’ve watched her grow up since she was little, she’s a perfect person.”
“In fact, it was Yansheng who benefited from this situation.”
“A young woman gave her most precious things to our son, which shows that she truly loves our Yansheng.”
“If Yansheng doesn’t marry her and Wang Mazi does, and he finds out she’s no longer a virgin, he’ll beat her to death!”
In the end, Zhou Xiulan sighed.
Clearly, both Mr. and Mrs. Chen Dafu preferred Bingjie.
It’s just that the eldest daughter, Chen Yuting, has a strong personality and is very decisive.
She usually manages all the household affairs, and even Chen Dafu and Zhou Xiulan can’t get a word in edgewise.
But now, seeing that their son Chen Yansheng is about to marry into the family, they can’t sit still anymore.
Hearing her parents’ words, Chen Yuting’s face showed a conflicted expression.
After a long pause, she finally spoke: “I’ll have a serious talk with that brat when he comes back next time.”
Chen Yuting did not continue to say anything against Chen Yansheng and Yu Bingjie being together.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen Dafu and Chen Shuisheng exchanged a glance and smiled.
…
After returning from the Chen family’s courtyard, Chen Yansheng washed up and then carried the red mushrooms, matsutake mushrooms, and other mushrooms he had dug up in the mountains that morning to the county town.
As soon as he arrived at the Dragon and Phoenix Teahouse, Meng De hurriedly grabbed his hand, his expression excited:
“Brother Yansheng, there’s news! There’s news!”
Seeing Meng De so agitated, Chen Yansheng quickly reassured him, “Brother Meng, take your time. What news is there?”
“Didn’t you ask me a few days ago to inquire about experts in Shanghai and Beijing who specialize in treating brain injuries and performing neurosurgery?” Meng De said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yansheng’s breathing became somewhat rapid. A few days ago, when he was chatting with Meng De and asking how Old Master Meng’s health was recovering, he casually mentioned his brother-in-law Yu Jie’s illness.
After hearing this, Mengde agreed to look into it.
Chen Yansheng had only asked casually and didn’t expect to get news so quickly.
After all, in this day and age, medical professors who are skilled in treating brain injuries are extremely rare.
It’s rare to run into someone like that on a normal day.
“Brother Meng, is there some news?”
Seeing Meng De’s excited expression, Chen Yansheng couldn’t control his breathing and asked excitedly.
Meng De nodded and laughed, “You’re really lucky, kid.”
“When you told me about this the other day, I asked around and I actually found out some clues.”
Mengde’s Longfeng Teahouse served countless traveling merchants from all over the country every day, and its sources of information were diverse and wide-ranging.
Knowing that Chen Yansheng was looking for an expert who specialized in treating brain diseases, they went to great lengths to find out.
This information came from a Shanghai business owner.
Professor Chen Jiuren, the director of the neurology clinic at a Shanghai hospital, is coming to the provincial hospital for a medical exchange activity.
Professor Chen Jiuren has been practicing medicine for forty years and has cured many patients with brain injuries.
I heard that in the early years, many veterans who were injured in the head by artillery shells on the battlefield underwent his craniotomy to remove the shell fragments and were out of danger.
“This time, Professor Chen Jiuren came to the provincial capital for medical exchange activities, and it seems he has a few consultation slots available.”
“If you want to get treatment for your brother-in-law, this is a very rare opportunity.”
Hearing Meng De’s words, Chen Yansheng nodded: “Brother Meng, I understand what you mean!”
He was also well aware that it was rare to encounter department heads and senior professors in large hospitals like those in Shanghai on a regular basis.
Such professionals are rare; once they’re gone, they’re gone forever.
If Yu Jie doesn’t get surgery this time, it’s another matter whether we can find someone in another year or two.
Even if they find it, they might not have the physical strength to perform brain surgery.
“However…” At this moment, Meng De changed the subject and said:
“Brain injury surgery not only requires sophisticated foreign instruments, but also imported medicines, so the cost of the surgery is not low.”
Even if the surgery is successful, it will still cost a lot of money to recover afterward.
“I asked a friend, and this surgery will cost at least eight thousand, maybe ten thousand.”
Do you have enough money on hand?
He also knew about the incident where Chen Yansheng was robbed on the way to sell the century-old blood ginseng.
At first, he even wanted to call the police on Chen Yansheng’s behalf.
They only stopped when they learned that the robbers were creditors of Chen Yansheng’s fiancée’s family.
But he also knew that Chen Yansheng was not well-off.
Sure enough, when Chen Yansheng heard that the surgery would cost seven or eight thousand, he frowned: “That much?”
He only has a little over 6,000 yuan left.
This includes the income from selling ginseng, jackal skin, jackal meat, and the income from these past few days of hiking in the mountains.
In this day and age, six thousand yuan is enough to make any rural person feel like they’re halfway to becoming a wealthy household.
However, Yu Bingjie’s family still owed Wang Mazi 5,000 yuan. After paying that back, they would only have about 1,000 yuan left.
It’s still far from enough to cover the cost of Yu Jie’s surgery.
“Brother Meng, could you please ask Professor Chen Jiuren for his contact information, as well as the details of registering for the surgery? I’ll try to raise the money for the surgery.”
Chen Yansheng looked at Meng De seriously and said.
In any case, this is a rare opportunity, and we absolutely cannot miss it.
He’ll figure out how to make money from it.
“No problem, I’ll find out and let you know.”
Mengde nodded in agreement.
Finally, he paused for a moment, then continued, “Brother Yansheng, if you don’t have enough money, I can lend you some…”
Before Meng De could finish speaking, Chen Yansheng interrupted him with a smile:
“Brother Meng, it hasn’t been easy for you to get this teahouse to where it is now. You should keep some cash on hand.”
“Brother Yansheng, why are you being so polite with me? Although I only run a small business, I’ve made quite a bit of money over the years. Lending you a little won’t affect my teahouse business at all…” Mengde said, waving his hand.
What Mengde didn’t know was that it was because of his good intentions today.
Later, his real estate company was tricked into buying a piece of bad land.
When all the working capital was tied up, Chen Yansheng spared no effort to transfer funds, managing to revitalize the land in Mengde’s hands and earn hundreds of millions in profit.
Chen Yansheng did not refuse Meng De’s kindness: “I’ll try to figure it out myself first. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll borrow some from you.”
“Alright, if you need any help, just let me know.” Seeing Chen Yansheng say this, Meng De didn’t say anything more.
Chen Yansheng chuckled and pointed to the bamboo basket beside him, saying, “Brother Meng, I really need your help right now to collect these mountain goods…”
