Volume of Changning Kingdom: Chapter 27 Visiting for Medicine
That day in the lounge of the camp, Wu Tingwei met Cui Yunhong drinking coffee alone, and thought it would be a good time to talk about Cui Yongfang's personal problems: "Cui Ji, why are you here alone? Where is your Yongfang?"
"He and Anna went to the small tent to look for Dayak and his son again."
"Oh? That little savage is not well yet? I thought they had left..."
"Good morning, these Dayaks don't have drug resistance. The sulfonamide powder we used to treat his infection can be regarded as a miracle drug, but he was lucky and did not develop to the level of sepsis. Anna is now teaching that woman
Talking."
"This little girl Anna is quite interesting. On one hand she is very arrogant, but on the other hand she is very compassionate..."
"It's not bad. Anna is kind-hearted and curious. She said her dream is to be a naturalist, so naturally she won't let go of the opportunity to observe primitive aborigines... I'm wondering whether to abduct her back to Lin.
Highly nurturing and nurturing…”
"Well, if she comes back to Lingao, she will set off another climax for the rough guys. Naturalists, don't we have enough female naturalists? What is so good about this subject? But then again, Cui Ji, you don't
Did you find out that Cui Yongfang is interested in Anna?" Wu Tingwei glanced at Cui Yunhong's reaction while drinking coffee.
Cui Yunhong shook the coffee cup in her hand and said disapprovingly: "Brother, I can smell the sour smell they both exude even if I'm blind."
"you do not mind?"
"I don't mind at all. Cui Yongfang is straight to begin with, but he is only intimate with me because he is my life secretary. His instinctive desire for the opposite sex cannot be changed, just like my desire for a man's body is also innately unchangeable."
"You wouldn't object if he dated Anna?"
"No, I support the living secretary to have his own life, otherwise I would not send him to study in Fangcaodi, nor would I deprive him of his life's happiness just because I am his master. Besides, men are all
The problem of liking the new and hating the old is even more prominent among gays. In a few years, I will definitely like younger and more handsome people. It is also a good thing that he can find someone he likes..." Cui Yunhong had finished drinking the coffee in his hand and was about to start talking again.
Have another drink.
"You are a good master, haha."
"Just don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. It would be great to time travel. No one will mind my business, and I can have a colorful harem..."
"Cui Ji...ah no, Yun Hong, everyone in the Senate also respects your choice."
Cui Yunhong said, "What do you think about me sending him to the Hong Kong Naval Academy or Jeju Island Army Academy?"
"I didn't see that he had any desire to join the army." Wu Tingwei looked at Cui Yunhong and wondered why he smelled like an old father.
"Where's the Huangpu Merchant Marine School?"
"To be honest, I don't see that he has any intention of becoming a sailor..."
"What a shame, to be honest I don't really like the National Police uniform."
"We've been arguing for a long time but you just like him wearing uniforms!" Wu Tingwei complained.
"But he has an inherent advantage in wearing a uniform, and he looks good and orderly..."
"Damn, there's something wrong with your motives." Wu Tingwei continued to complain.
"No, no," Cui Yunhong quickly shook her head, "I was thinking about his future. If I really want to subdue him... Isn't it easy for me to get a few sets of clothes? In our era, it is easiest for soldiers, sailors, and businessmen to stand out.
, and with me protecting him, he will definitely have a good future in the future. But business is not suitable for him."
"Isn't it better to be a scholar than a technician like you?"
"Scholars and technicians can make a living in any era, but it is difficult to achieve success..." Cui Yunhong said.
"Why can't Anna see her lately?"
"She has been hanging out with the Dayak mother and son, teaching them to learn Hokkien and their dialect." Cui Yunhong said, "Looking at Anna, she is trying to spread the gospel."
"Damn, why do these fairies like this tune?" Wu Tingwei said dissatisfied, but he didn't care about this. "Since the child's illness is almost cured, why do the mother and son still hide in the shack every day and never come out?"
"I don't know either. This woman is very afraid of people. She only let Anna and me in before, but now Cui Yongfang can go in after getting familiar with her. Yongfang told me that she has PTSD about people, not just the fear of unknown things.
What Anna means is to keep the mother and son together for a while longer. In that case, let her stay here, and her meal money will be mine."
"Damn it! What you said is too outrageous. Do you have to keep accounts for such a small thing?" Wu Tingwei pushed Cui Yunhong with his elbow and said with a smile, "It would be a good thing if they are willing to stay, at least for us
From now on, we will have a channel to deal with the Dayak people in the interior."
"That's right."
"But you feel more and more like your daughter-in-law to Anna, hahaha..."
In the small tent on the beach, Anna continued to teach her daughter Dayak to speak Hokkien. In order to make it easier to address her, Anna named her after her most beloved nanny Caitlin.
Although Caitlin was baptized and had a European name, she was actually a local indigenous woman. She had been Basten's maid since she was bought by him. Anna felt that the melancholy indigenous woman in front of her also had Caitlin's shadow.
"Caitlin, the word we want to learn today is home, just like here..." Anna pretended to sleep peacefully, then hugged Caitlin and her child together, with her hands raised to form an arch.
After Caitlin understood the meaning of the word home, she did not respond to Anna as usual. Instead, she hugged her child tightly and cried bitterly: "Home... no! No!... Wuwuwu... home..."
Anna had seen Caitlin cry sadly before, but this was the first time she had such a big reaction today, and she hugged the thin Caitlin into her arms with distress.
Caitlin cried for a while before she recovered, but Anna had no response when she tried to talk to her again. Anna had no choice but to withdraw and go to Cui Yongfang to complain.
"Just leave her alone. It seems that her home has suffered some kind of disaster. I remember that when my home was destroyed by war, I didn't want to talk to anyone."
"God bless you, Yongfang, and also your family. Losing your family is really painful and uncomfortable..." Anna, who also lost her mother, can best understand the feelings of Caitlin and Cui Yongfang. Anna naturally pulled her.
Cui Yongfang prayed with his hands, which made Cui Yongfang's face turn red.
The two of them walked out of the tent with red faces, only to find two unfamiliar Chinese merchant ships on the pier. Several people got off the ship and were walking towards the camp headquarters under the guidance of naturalized people...
From the looks of it, these people are not ordinary businessmen. They went to the big tent where the chiefs work and live, so they obviously have a lot of background...
"Huang Qilin, the eleventh generation garrison commander of Changning Mountain, has met all the leaders..." In the big tent of the camp, an old man led a group of clan members to salute Wu Tingwei, Huang Lu and Cui Yunhong.
"That's so polite, that's so polite. Mr. Huang, we can't stand it when someone of your age gives us such a big gift." Wu Tingwei helped him politely and said politely.
"No matter how high or low you are, no matter how old you are." Huang Qilin stood up respectfully and said, "These are all important ministers of the Senate, extremely noble people. It is only natural for me to give this gift."
Cui Yunhong and Huang Lu looked at each other and said, "We are drinking rice soup right now. We must have something important to ask of each other."
They are very clear about Huang Qilin's status and local influence. The Huang family is a powerful local faction in Borneo that is as powerful as Sudan. If he comes to visit in person, he must have something very important to ask for or discuss.
Therefore, Wu Tingwei did not dare to neglect, and immediately invited them to sit down and ordered someone to bring kvass.
"I am ashamed to say that I came here this time, just to ask for medicine with a calm face..." Huang Qilin did not drink the Australian drink. He only bowed.
"This..." Wu Tingwei was in a bit of a dilemma. The other party sent his son here last time. This time, the head of the family simply took action in person and gave him a lot of face. It would be unkind to refuse again. "Last time Ling Lang came here, he already
You told me your situation. It sounds like it’s a good thing to help the people. But we really don’t have much medicine for you, and we have spent a lot of money here during this period..."
"I understand the meaning of the leaders," Huang Qilin said. "I am not the kind of unreasonable and stubborn person. In fact, the people who are sick this time are very important, so I have no choice but to pull this old face to appeal to the Senate.
Show mercy.”
When he said this, he didn't have to be an important person in the Huang family. If he, the head of the family, had to go out to ask for medicine in person, Wu, Huang, and Cui couldn't think of anyone who would be so important. Could it be his eldest son Huang Shibei?
"Could he be Mr. Huang's eldest son?" Wu Tingwei asked.
Huang Qilin hesitated. After a moment of hesitation, he suddenly said: "Borneo is poor and not as rich as the Central Plains, but there are two things that are extremely valuable. Do you know about camphor and agarwood?"
"Both of these two things are produced in Bo Ni and are also sold in Guangzhou. The camphor and agarwood produced in Bo Ni are worth a lot of money and can be sold for a lot of money." Wu Tingwei also did some research on the local customs and customs of Brunei before setting off, and he was not familiar with these two things.
Strange, I just don’t know why Huang Qilin mentioned it.
"Yes, these two products are sold to the Central Plains and Western countries every year and the profit is no less than tens of thousands of gold. If a few leaders can give me the magic medicine, I am willing to sell half of this year's camphor and agarwood to the Senate. You see
