………………
Seeing Guan Xuelian's voice suddenly rising, her face full of panic, Luo Han was startled, and his right hand on her waist stopped.
This is not the time to eat tofu.
But Guan Xuelian just urged her, and there was another subtle explanation on the phone, which should be good news, so the beauty's face slowly relaxed again. When the voice on the phone stopped, she was obviously relaxed.
The tone was full of complaints: "Mom, you still have the same old habit of not talking about the important points for a long time! It almost scared me just now! Are you sure that Dad's poison has been completely cured?... That's good! Then, you want me to come back.
, or what? Oh..., okay, I haven't bought it either, but I can try asking my classmates... Ah? No, I still have some money in my hand. Besides, I'm buying something for my dad, not
If you give it to others, why do you need to remit it!...Well, I will reply to you tomorrow."
Then, Guan Xuelian pressed the end button, her face lost in thought.
Luo Han looked at her with concern: "What? Your dad was bitten by a five-step snake?"
Seeing that the concern in his eyebrows was not artificial at all, thinking about his life experience, Guan Xuelian felt warm in her heart and explained softly: "Well! Our family is in the countryside. In order to save money to buy a house for my brother, my dad spent a few years on it.
I started reselling wild five-step snakes. This time I took my brother to practice in the wild, but my brother accidentally startled a five-step snake. In order to save him, my father was bitten by the snake."
"Ah!" Luo Han took a breath: "The five-step snake is very poisonous!"
According to legend, if bitten by this kind of snake, you will fall down in five steps, so it is called "five-step snake", which shows that it is extremely poisonous.
Guan Xuelian nodded: "Fortunately, my dad has always been doing this and always has emergency medicine on him to help himself immediately. My brother was also calm and sent my dad to the county hospital in time and received a special detoxification serum.
. Now the snake venom has been removed, but the blood loss is excessive and the vitality is severely weakened. My mother called me just to ask me to help to see if I can buy wild ginseng."
"Oh!" Luo Han listened very well and nodded subconsciously: "Buy ginseng!" Then he suddenly woke up: "Huh? Buy wild ginseng?"
This... this is too coincidental?
Guan Xuelian misunderstood: "Yes, the doctor originally suggested that my mother buy some ordinary ginseng in a traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy, but that would take too long and it would take a year to slowly make up for it. My mother has a friend who is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
It was said that wild ginseng that is more than 10 years old can shorten the time by twice, so my mother planned to buy some wild ginseng. We are a small county and there is no supply at all, so I had to think of a way."
"You?" Luo Han was amused: "Then what are you going to do? Go to the drugstore to buy it?"
Although wild ginseng is also sold in pharmacies, most of them are several years old and have high price tags, ranging from 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. Those that are 10 years old may not be available, and even if they are, the price must be at least tens of thousands.
Guan Xuelian has only graduated for a year. Even if she joins Wuliu Environmental Protection as soon as she graduates, how much money can she save in one year?
But this cannot be said clearly.
Guan Xuelian looked at her watch and shook her head: "It's almost nine o'clock now. Most pharmacies should be closed, and it's easy to buy counterfeit medicines in a hurry. I'll ask my classmates first!"
After saying that, she started pressing the numbers on her phone.
Seeing her worried look, Luo Han began to feel confused.
Naturally, he does not have real wild ginseng, but the three ginseng plants currently planted in his room must have been transformed into wild ginseng that is at least more than 10 years old. It is not difficult to take them out. But, should he admit it now?
Woolen cloth?
If this had happened to the dean's grandma or Chen Xiao, Luo Han would have taken out a wild ginseng immediately without hesitation to save the day. As for the excuse, he would make it up after the incident.
Not too late.
But Guan Xuelian is different from these two people.
Although he has planned to formally pursue Guan Xuelian, Luo Han knows that people's hearts are always insufficient, and things that are obtained too easily are often not cherished so much. If he could easily take out a wild ginseng, he would not suffer any setbacks.
Could Sister Guan mistakenly believe that this thing is easy to buy in Shenhai City, and therefore ignore her own help?
And if she calls all over the phone but still gets nothing in frustration, as long as she pretends to be working hard and takes out a wild ginseng before tomorrow morning, I believe that Sister Guan will be grateful to her.
It jumped up a lot immediately?
However, such an approach may seem artificial.
Moreover, I wonder what Sister Guan’s financial strength is and whether she has enough funds in her hands? After all, the wild ginseng produced in the past ten years should be available in large pharmacies, but the price is relatively high.
After hesitating for a moment, seeing that Guan Xuelian had already made the first call, Luo Han quickly made a decision.
In order to keep the secret of superpowers, you still have to pretend!
As Luo Han expected, Guan Xuelian called 6 classmates in a row, but none of them dared to boast that they helped her buy wild ginseng that was over 10 years old. She didn't know whether it was because she really had no other choice, or because she was afraid of not having a strong relationship, so she bought the ginseng.
If you find a fake, you will be embarrassed. Even Li Na, who has some connections in Shenhai City, is at a loss when she hears this request for help. She says that if it is a wild ginseng that is several years old, she may be able to help, but it will take more than 10 years to get it.
There was nothing she could do to help. The hope in Guan Xuelian's eyes dimmed little by little as time passed.
However, she was also the one who made the decision immediately. She quickly called her direct boss and asked for a day off to prepare to go to the pharmacy tomorrow.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Luo Han thought for a while and volunteered: "In this case, I will ask you later! Don't think too much and have a good rest first."
Guan Xuelian nodded silently, but she didn't even have the energy to speak.
Luo Han sighed secretly, opened the door and took two more mineral water, pouring it into the four pots of ginseng and the surrounding green radish and spider plants. Without giving the fan and humidifier a chance to rest, he withdrew and returned to Bailu County.
It was a very meaningful day, but because of this sudden bad news, the sweet atmosphere was ruined. It would be futile for him to stay any longer, and it might cause more troubles. It would be better to come back and talk to Chen Xiao
Let’s discuss the matter of wild ginseng.
As soon as he entered the solid wooden door of Bailu County Villa, before he had time to change his shoes, Chen Xiao, who was leisurely watching TV in the living room, asked in confusion: "Why are you back?"
Chen Xiao knew that the Finance Department was having a dinner tonight, and also knew that Guan Xuelian was participating in it. He also wondered whether the two of them would be happy and have fun until the clock ticked before they separated.
"It's just eating, how long can we play!" Luo Han put on his slippers, rolled his eyes at him angrily, walked slowly into the living room, sat down on the sofa, picked up a piece of cut cantaloupe from the fruit plate in front of him,
He took a hard bite and said, "Neither of us are like you, we are totally night owls."
"Oh, the other colleagues have gone home after dinner. You and Meili Guan can continue! It's time to get the conversation started." Chen Xiao disapprovingly picked up another piece of bright red watermelon, and after a few scoldings, he put it in his mouth.
"Let's talk!" After enjoying the sweet and juicy taste, he swallowed the drunken cantaloupe. Luo Han didn't intend to hide it from him: "I was already at the dinner table, in front of the entire finance department and HR department director Hu
Liang's face, openly asked her to go out to watch a movie, and she agreed, that's enough, other things can be done step by step. I believe that after tonight, within a week, most of the people in the head office will
I think she and I are a couple."
"Ah?" Chen Xiao was quite surprised. He actually expressed his position openly at the dinner table?
But thinking about it again, this is quite in line with Luo Han's character, who is upright in everything.
He immediately laughed: "Let me tell you, Miss Guan must be interested in you. Maybe it was love at first sight. Otherwise, why would she take the initiative to block you at the company door? That takes a lot of courage!"
Luo Han smiled and was too lazy to argue with him about this issue. Now that he and Guan Xuelian have developed to this stage, it doesn't matter who looked for whom first or who was attracted first. As long as they love each other and love each other,
Care and don't care too much about who suffers, and the relationship will develop smoothly.
"Don't say I didn't remind you. If nothing happens in the future, don't mention this matter in front of her. Girls have tender faces. If you become angry when you are embarrassed, your life will be difficult."
Chen Xiao pouted: "Do you think I'm that stupid? By the way, since she has agreed to watch a movie with you, why don't you strike while the iron is hot and cultivate more relationships? What time is it that you are back?"
Luo Han glared at him angrily: "You think I don't want to? Something happened to her family temporarily. It's not suitable for me to stay any longer, so I'll come back to you to discuss it. Can you help me find out Xia Guan Xuelian's current salary?
I want to know now."
Chen Xiao was surprised: "What happened?" At the same time, he picked up his mobile phone and started to check the number.
"Oh, I'll tell you when you ask."
Soon, Chen Xiao made two calls in succession, and the surprise in his eyes became more and more intense. When the call ended, he looked at Luo Han with some sympathy: "I asked the head of the human resources department, someone with the level of Guan Xuelian
, the basic salary is 3,500, plus room allowance, food subsidy, transportation subsidy, etc., 4,500, and then a monthly commission will be determined based on the number of words they translate. Normally, the monthly income fluctuates between 6,000-7,000, and when busy, they can get 9,000
