Protagonist:

Lu Feng

After hearing this, Zhou Zhengbang felt a stir in his heart and quietly pulled Zhang Xianyang to one side, lowering his voice to say to him: "Xiao Zhang, go talk to that scalper and buy his position. Old Sun is returning to Chuan Yu tomorrow; he rarely comes to our hospital once, don't let him leave with any regrets."

"Ah?"

Zhang Xianyang's eyes widened all at once, the expression on his face froze for a moment, and he spoke somewhat hesitantly: "Director Zhou, when I just went over, those people had already bid up to five hundred and fifty. Are you sure..."

It wasn't that he was stingy with money; the salaries of doctors at Tong'an Hospital weren't low, and living alone in Jiangcheng, he didn't have too many expenses, and he did have savings.

It was just that he knew Director Zhou had always detested scalpers; last month at a meeting, he was still calling those people "worms that disrupt medical order."

Now, because Old Sun wanted to eat Red Braised Pork, he was actually asking him to take the initiative to buy a position from a scalper?

"It doesn't matter how much money it costs, hurry up and go; if you go too late, the position will be bought by someone else!"

Seeing that Zhang Xianyang still hadn't moved, Zhou Zhengbang couldn't help but give him a push: "The extra money, come find me later, I'll personally reimburse you; as long as Old Sun is happy, any amount of money is worth it!"

Zhang Xianyang scratched his head, looked at Sun Rongguang standing not far away, constantly swallowing his saliva as he smelled the aroma, and reluctantly agreed.

Since becoming a doctor, he had never dealt with a scalper.

Before he could even walk over, he heard the scalper uncle's excited shout from the crowd: "Eight hundred now! Everyone, is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?"

Zhang Xianyang paused in his steps and felt a bit panicked inside.

In the time it took to turn his head, the price had already risen by over two hundred; if it kept rising, even if Director Zhou could reimburse him, it would be enough to make him ache for a while.

He hurriedly squeezed into the crowd and at a glance saw the scalper uncle.

A white-collar worker in a suit had a look of certain victory on his face, and standing next to him was a young man with furrowed brows, appearing to be hesitating whether to keep raising the price.

The scalper uncle shouted two more times, and the diners around all fell silent.

Spending eight hundred to buy a spot in line; although everyone really wanted to eat the Red Braised Pork made by Lu Feng, not everyone was willing to spend so much money to buy this qualification from a scalper.

Zhao Zhenhui hadn't come to Food Street yet; if he were here, the price would probably have to be shouted up to over a thousand.

Seeing that no one responded, the scalper uncle was just about to finalize the deal with the white-collar worker who had bid eight hundred, when Zhang Xianyang hurriedly squeezed up to him: "Uncle, wait a moment, can you sell me this position?"

"Yo! Is that Doctor Zhang? You also want to eat Red Braised Pork?"

The scalper uncle turned his head and recognized Zhang Xianyang at a glance, asking with a smile: "Right now someone has already bid eight hundred, Doctor Zhang, how much do you plan to bid?"

Hearing that Zhang Xianyang was a doctor, the diners around all cast surprised glances at him.

A doctor also looking for a scalper?

Zhang Xianyang's face felt a bit hot, but in order to complete the task assigned by Director Zhou, he still continued to say in a low voice: "Yes, Uncle, we can be considered acquaintances; can you give a discount? Eight hundred is really..."

After all, it was Director Zhou personally reimbursing; as a subordinate, saving him some money was good.

"I'm sorry."

Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, the smile on the scalper uncle's face immediately faded, and then he turned around to finalize the deal with the white-collar worker who had bid eight hundred.

NND, this profit-seeking thing...

Zhang Xianyang couldn't help but silently curse in his heart; then his eyes rolled, and he had an idea.

"Uncle, wait a moment; although I don't have enough money, can I exchange something else?"

Zhang Xianyang stopped the scalper uncle, then pointed toward Sun Rongguang in the distance: "Do you see that old man standing over there? He is Sun Rongguang, Old Sun, a top digestive medicine expert in the country! If someone in your family wants to see a doctor these two days, I can help you arrange a consultation with Old Sun, no need to queue!"

"Old Sun?"

The scalper uncle was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up instantly.

He had long heard of Sun Rongguang's great name on television; his medical skill was famous throughout the country.

These years, the scalper uncle had eaten and drunk to excess, always feeling his stomach was a bit uncomfortable, and it would hurt from time to time; he was just planning to go to the hospital to get checked.

However, during this period, the focus of his work had shifted to Food Street, and the resources at the hospital hadn't been used for a long time.

He had tried to get an expert appointment with the director of the Digestive Medicine Department at Tong'an Hospital three times but failed each time.

Recently, he had been considering whether to simply ask colleagues at the hospital to help him scalp an appointment; unexpectedly, a better opportunity had appeared right before his eyes.

The scalper uncle didn't know that Old Sun was coming to Jiangcheng.

But even if he knew, it would be useless; for such a famous top expert as Old Sun, his expert appointments were snapped up by countless patients and scalpers within seconds of being released; he simply couldn't buy one.

The scalper uncle looked toward Sun Rongguang; although he had never seen Sun Rongguang in person, seeing him standing with his hands behind his back, chatting and laughing with Zhou Zhengbang, he felt that in his every move, there was indeed a bit of the appearance of a Medical Master.

"Doctor Zhang, is what you said true? Can you really arrange for Old Sun to give me a consultation?"

The scalper uncle was somewhat tempted; he edged closer to Zhang Xianyang and asked in a low voice.

"Of course it's true."

Zhang Xianyang nodded quickly: "Old Sun returns to Chuan Yu tomorrow afternoon; if you give me the position, come to the hospital tomorrow and find me directly, and I'll arrange it for you."

While he was speaking, Hu Xiaoyun happened to pass by; the diners in the line saw her and shouted greetings loudly.

The scalper uncle's attention was also attracted for a moment.

It was just this momentary negligence that he didn't hear the first half of Zhang Xianyang's words, but he did hear the second half clearly.

The scalper uncle considered for two seconds, then nodded heavily and said to Zhang Xianyang: "Fine! Doctor Zhang! I'll swap with you!"

"Thank you, Uncle!"

After hearing his words, Zhang Xianyang relaxed in his heart and hurriedly ran toward Zhou Zhengbang and Sun Rongguang.

Zhou Zhengbang was on the phone; Zhang Xianyang didn't disturb him, walked up to Sun Rongguang, and said: "Old Sun, that scalper uncle has agreed to give up the position; when we queue later, you can just go directly over!"

Then he recounted the entire process of his conversation with that uncle to Sun Rongguang.

After Zhang Xianyang finished speaking, he still felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

After all, he was using Old Sun's consultation as a "bargaining chip"; he still needed to ask for his own opinion.

If Sun Lao disagrees, I'll still have to go find that Scalper uncle later to explain.

After hearing the process, Sun Rongguang couldn't help but laugh, his tone full of gentleness: "You kid, you're quite good at thinking of ways, neither spending extra money nor failing to help the sick person, this is much better than forcing yourself to compete on price with people."

Then he thought of something and asked: "Right, did you tell them I'm going back tomorrow afternoon? If he's coming to the Hospital, morning tomorrow would be best."

Zhang Xianyang nodded, smiling as he replied: "Relieved Sun Lao, I already told them!"

Seeing Sun Rongguang had no Meaning of blame, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He also knew clearly in his heart, if Sun Lao knew he spent So Many money to Cut in Line, he himself would probably instead be Unwilling.
