Chapter 9:

The neatly organized convoy drove slowly towards Qinghe Town. On both sides of the road were students from the central elementary school in the town. They had red scarves on their necks, and they shouted welcome with fresh flowers.
Different from the enthusiasm outside, the atmosphere in the old red flag led by the convoy looked a little depressed. In the past few days, they have accompanied Roche to see five or six towns, but the foreigners shook their heads besides shaking their heads. Qinghe Town was the last one.
If they are still dissatisfied, Roche’s people will leave China and go to Vietnam and India to find factory sites. This result is something the province and the Ministry of Health do not want to see!
"Have you explained to the town leaders?" It was the deputy governor of Haidong Province who was in charge of health. This time the project province was originally to let the deputy governor who was in charge of the economy come down. For him, he has naturally operated this one. He wanted to pick peaches, but he didn't think that the peaches might be poisonous.
If he goes back so empty-handed, he will become a joke for the entire province. Party committee and government!
"It is clear that the militia team and the local police station are on duty 24 hours a day, so that foreign friends must see a fishing town with good public security and honest folk customs."
Li Zheng was pulled into the crowd by Li Chaoyang, just to see David getting out of the car, the group of tall, blond and blue-eyed foreigners appeared to be particularly eye-catching among the crowd.
David said something with a smile, and the translator at the back quickly translated, "Mr. Andorio said, this is too grand, he is very uncomfortable."
When the county leader heard this, his expression was froze. The secretary behind had already grasped the leader's wink and made a few gestures. Within a few minutes, the pupils and banners were gone.
Seeing David's expressionless face, Li Zheng was funny in his heart. He knew that his old friend must be scolding his mother now. He was just being polite, how could he really withdraw.
David once told him that the period of "exile in Xiangjiang" was the lowest time of his career. Although Xiangjiang was already the center of Asia at that time, it was not worth mentioning compared to the European and North American markets, not to mention that with the rise of China, the political uncertainty of Xiangjiang became more obvious.
At that time, only those who were not reused would be sent to Xiangjiang. However, David was affected by a high-level power struggle and was unfortunately hit. He said that in the early days of being exiled to Xiangjiang, he relied on the beautiful formalism of China to heal his wounds. The taste of being greeted by people everywhere is simply wonderful, and it made him feel his own value again.
The leaders didn't know the crookedness in David's heart, and the uprightness of foreign friends was notorious. They didn't know that standing in front of them was a changed English gentleman.
David and his party were greeted into the guest house in the town.
Li Zheng has also inquired that Luo's visit to Yantian County is to build a basic pharmaceutical factory to extract poplar proline.
Poplar proline is one of the main raw materials for the treatment of neurological diseases. It was first extracted from fish bones and fish viscera. In the late 1990s, the Japanese successfully extracted this ingredient from a certain seaweed. The production of acid has quickly transitioned from animal extraction to plant extraction.
Li Zheng guessed that giant crocodiles such as Novartis, Pfizer, and Roche had plant extraction technology for a long time. It was just that in order to squeeze the last trace of the value of animal extraction technology, no one took the lead and was robbed by unruly Japanese. Opportunity. These pharmaceutical companies have done such an unscrupulous thing.
Roche set his sights on Yantian County, firstly because it is close to Xiangjiang and convenient for management. 2. Probably because of the scale of fishery here.
But... this is probably why Roche finally gave up setting up a factory in Yantian.
"I really envy Si Tian! If I study English well, it will be fine!" Li Chaoyang has been talking about it all the way. In order to better entertain foreign friends, the county has selected a few girls with good English scores from various high schools to serve as guest houses. Temporary waiter, Zhou Sitian is one of them.
Li Zheng rolled his eyes, "Then it's not enough for you to learn English well. You have to go to Thailand for a reassignment operation."
Li Chaoyang scratched his head, "What is reassignment surgery? Why go to Thailand for it?"
Looking at Li Chaoyang's clear eyes, Li Zheng didn't want to explain to him the scientific proposition "How the Thai ladyboy was born".
Before dinner, Zhou Sitian secretly returned home and asked Li Zheng to go to the guest house for dinner. Listening to Zhou Sitian describing how good the food in the guesthouse is, and the foreign wines brought by foreigners, the foreigners don't want to drink them until noon. The waiters secretly hid them.
"Master Yang said that this time there must be a lot of materials. When the foreigners have finished eating, we will make another table for us, and drink the remaining foreign wine!" When she said this, her almond eyes flashed. After the light, Li Zheng deeply felt Zhou Sitian's feeling of wanting to share the good things she thought with her family.
"Great! That must be great!" Li Zheng's eyes smiled into beautiful shapes, and the expression on his face was very soft.
"I...I want to go too!" Li Chaoyang finally put his mouth in, he secretly thanked that he was going home a while later, otherwise he wouldn't have the good fortune, foreign wine, hehe.
Zhou Sitian smiled and nodded, and the three of them walked to the guest house in town with a smile.
When they arrived, the preparations for dinner had just begun, and the two of them stayed in the waiter's lounge to chat because they could not disturb Zhou Sitian's work.
On the other side, in the room on the fourth floor of the guest house, Wang Chengcai thought he was going crazy, his cousin stole cufflinks from foreigners!
"Do you know how important this project is! The vice governor is still living in the room downstairs, personally accompanying the foreigners, you actually steal their things!" Wang Chengcai tried to lower his voice, he knew his family My cousin has a lot of problems, but he didn't expect him to be this far.
"I didn't steal it. They fell under the table. I picked it up." Yang Kaijian also seemed to recognize the seriousness of the matter, and his voice was as low as a mosquito.
Wang Chengcai paced back and forth, "No, you put it back wherever you picked it up!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door, it was Mother Wang.
Mother Wang is the accountant of the guest house, so she is hosting all the long private rooms, and Wang Chengcai often comes to live. This time, because of the quota for the new factory, Wang Chengcai was so happy that he brought his cousin over and opened his eyes. He didn't expect this to happen.
"Mom, what's the matter?" Wang Chengcai had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Foreign friends lost something, and the leaders made a big fire. Now the hostel is looking for things up and down. Stay in the room and don't go around." Mother Wang said softly.
Wang Chengcai's heart was stunned, and on the surface he obediently responded.
"Cousin, cousin, what should I do? I didn't mean it." Yang Kaijian finally panicked.
Wang Chengcai thought for a long time with a sullen face, and suddenly said: "You just said that you saw that annoying Li family in the staff lounge on the first floor."
Yang Kaijian nodded quickly.
"That's just right. Didn't you say that you want to teach him, we won't be bloody!" Wang Chengcai said with a smile.
Yang Kaijian looked at the ruby ​​cuffs in his hand, then looked at his cousin's face, and nodded heavily.

"Wow, this foreigner's wine..." Li Chaoyang took a sip of the red wine and put on a gesture of enjoyment, but he couldn't help vomiting the wine out of his mouth before his pretentious gesture lasted long. ." He continued boringly.
The table roared with laughter. Wine is different from traditional Chinese wine. It has strict requirements on the quality of grapes, and cheap wine has a strong astringency. The wines that David brings are of mid-range level and are not difficult to drink, but for young people who do not drink on weekdays, they are definitely not delicious.
"Little baby, eat more vegetables. Master Liu does not often make this green spot fish, so he borrows the light of a foreign friend."
When everyone was eating happily, a group of people approached the back kitchen menacingly. Governor Qiu and David walked side by side, followed by the deputy secretary of the Shennan region, the county head, the mayor of Qinghe Town, and a lot of A and B behind. Bing Ding.
The people on the table were taken aback. Master Liu saw the head of the guest house in A, B, C and D at the back, and he couldn't help standing up and asking, "Liu, what happened."
Liu Suo calmly shook his head and said nothing.
"Xiaohe, recognize people." Qiu Zhengye was really beeping in his heart. He, a deputy governor in charge of health, is now in charge of solving cases.
The young man named Xiao He walked out from behind the big guys tremblingly. Under the inexplicable gazes of everyone on the table, he suddenly pointed at Li Zheng and said, "It's him! It's him! I watched him pull Mr. David's sleeves. Put it in the bag."
The scene was silent, and the complexion of the people at the dinner table changed drastically. Li Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, and then furious, "What are you talking about? Li Zheng has been with me, what cufflinks, why don't I know."
Now that he had already said it, Xiao He gave it up and said loudly to Qiu Zhengye: "Leader, I saw it with my own eyes. The cufflinks must still be in his bag!"
Zhou Sitian glanced at Li Zheng's empty shoulders, her complexion instantly turned pale. She naturally knew that Li Zheng would not steal anything, but she also knew that now the cufflinks might have been in Li Zheng's bag.
"Student Li Zheng, can I ask you and my secretary to go get your bag?" Qiu Zhengye said, he was very surprised. The boy who was identified did not show a trace of panic. He saw a casual and shallow smile in his eyes, which was not like the reaction of a thief, nor the reaction of a high school student.
Li Zheng nodded, gave Zhou Sitian a soothing expression, and immediately followed the secretary.
When he returned, he carried a bag in his hand.
Xiao He looked at the bag nervously, for fear that Li Zheng would secretly take it out on the way.
"Is it this bag?" Li Zheng lifted the bag and waved it in front of Xiaohe.
Xiaohe felt something wrong in his heart, but he nodded. He put the things in this bag with his own hands.
The secretary took the bag in Li Zheng's hand, opened it in front of everyone, and then took out the contents of the bag one by one.
"Found it." A ruby ​​cufflink was turned over from the bag.
Xiaohe let out a sigh of relief and immediately jumped up and said, "Look, it's in his bag. I saw him put the cufflinks in the bag with my own eyes!"
Qiu Zhengye took a deep look at Li Zheng, then took the cufflinks from the secretary and walked to David, "Mr. David, are these your cufflinks?"
David nodded, "Yes, this is indeed mine." In fact, what David wants to say is, isn't it just a cufflink, he has a lot of it, so there is no need to make such a fuss. But he didn't say that he enjoyed the taste of being valued.
"It's impossible, Li Zheng has always been with me!" Li Chaoyang said loudly.
But obviously, his words are of little importance to everyone present.
Director Shen of Yantian County stepped forward and said coldly to Li Zheng: "Student Li Zheng, please come with us."
The Law on the Protection of Minors was promulgated in 1991. Before that, minors had no privileges. According to Xiaohe, Li Zheng was guilty of theft. In addition, the crime involved foreign friends and investment promotion. If he goes with Director Shen, he will be ruined in his life.
Li Chaoyang's eyes were congested with anger. If it weren't for Master Liu to hold him, he would probably go up and play the Xiao He now. Zhou Sitian's face was pale and his expression sluggish.
Seeing Director Shen’s hand on Li Zheng’s shoulder, Zhou Sitian seemed to be awakened all of a sudden, she suddenly shouted:
It’s not Li Zheng, it’s me, I stole it!
After saying this, she was completely awake. The man slumped on the chair as if he had no strength.
Li Zheng turned around in astonishment, for the first time such a strong emotional color appeared on his face.
"Sister...Sister." Since waking up, Li Zheng has not devoted much affection to the original owner's family and friends, and even for this restarted life, he has a somewhat casual attitude.
Obviously there are many things in his mind, but he hasn't made any actual actions, and even the Noordin catalyst paper that has been written has not been sent out.
Because for him, he had too much. The sense of superiority that has been at the top of society for a long time made him inadvertently show a temperament that is above everyone in his rebirth.
However, this time, Li Zheng only felt that he was suddenly awakened from his dream, and a wave of coldness rose from his limbs and suddenly rushed to the back of his head.
"Shut up!" He shouted at Zhou Sitian, "Don't take any dirty and smelly things on yourself!"
Looking at Xiao He mockingly, Li Zheng avoided Director Shen's movements, took two steps forward, and said in a proficient New York accent: "David, can I talk to you alone?"
David looked at Li Zheng in surprise, but what surprised him even more was that he wanted to agree. God, this is unreasonable. This Oriental doll is indeed very beautiful, but he should not be such an irrational person.
"Never underestimate anyone, never give up any opportunity." Li Zheng spit out English words with a smile.
"Of course, my honour, sir." David agreed, his tone more polite than ever.
David thought if he had gotten some Eastern Secret Art, just like what he called his little assistant in Xiangjiang, Gu Art. A witchcraft that can manipulate others, otherwise, how could he see this Oriental doll and feel that he and himself have been close friends for many years...
Moreover, the sentence Dongfang Dowa just said is his motto, which he saw in an American magazine. How could a Chinese know!
Li Zheng and David walked into the corridor one after another.
The people who stayed in the back kitchen looked at each other. What happened and why didn't they understand the development of the matter at once?
"That kid Li Zheng is so good in English? No, he only passed 32 in the last midterm exam, which is five points lower than me." Li Chaoyang said to himself, looking up and seeing everyone looking at him strangely. Can't help but smile awkwardly, he seems to have made a mistake.
Zhou Sitian was stunned, apparently he hadn't recovered yet.
"Never underestimate anyone, never miss any opportunity. This is my motto, I don't know how Mr. Xiao knows." David doesn't feel that he is so important that he needs a middle school student to recite his information, let alone , It is impossible for him to have a message like a motto on his information.
"Mr. David, it's not important. The important thing is that I have something here that I want to give to Mr. David."
David frowned. "What." He didn't think a Chinese student could bring out anything that moved his heart.
Li Zheng took out a rough tissue and handed it over.
David frowned more tightly, but because of the Eastern Witchcraft, he had an indescribable awe of Li Zheng. After hesitating, David took it.
After just one glance, David jumped up.
"Is this true? What you said is true?" David's exaggerated shout attracted Qiu Zhengye and everyone.
"This method is not difficult. Just find a production line and try it out. I don't have to tell such unskilled lies." Li Zheng touched his nose. In fact, he was still a little frustrated.
What he wrote on the paper towel was a small technique for the improvement of the "Xiao Cuoan" production line. "Xiao Cuoan" is a multi-molecular polymer, but there has always been an annoying little problem on the production line, which is the synthesis of two Xiao Cuoan products. When the compound reacts, a puff of white smoke will be emitted. White smoke is slightly corrosive, which makes the synthetic parts of the production line need to be replaced frequently.
The drug production line is very expensive, even a small part is of great value. Moreover, Xiaocuoan is a very basic multi-molecular polymer, which is used in many drugs. Therefore, Roche alone has nearly 1,000 Xiaocuoan production lines in the world.
If the method written on Li Zheng's paper towel is true, the money saved in the replacement cost of the parts in that year will be enough to build a pharmaceutical factory that produces "yangproline".
The most important thing, this was discovered by David Andorio! This is enough to make the name of his "exile" appear in the sight of the senior Roche again!
"Oh, my friend, if this is true, I will definitely apply for a huge bonus for you!" David thought he was so discerning, he said how he fell in love with this oriental doll at first sight, oh no , It’s a hit! It turns out that God is guiding him!
Li Zheng gave a dry cough, "My friend, for the sake of your face, I can give this technology to Roche for free. But I would like to ask you to do me a little favor and help me complete the patent application for this technology. If Novartis and Pfizer are interested in it, the price will be paid."
Why is Li Zheng so generous, because this technology was originally told by David in his previous life. Of course, it was because David was jealous of the African colleague who was transferred back to Europe for this technology. He also devalued the scientists in the Roche laboratory, saying that such a simple technique has not been studied for so many years. come out!
"Oh, my friend, you are so touched by me. Okay, don't worry, the patent document will be delivered to you as soon as possible." David now looks at Li Zheng's eyes, like he is looking The angels in the hall can drip water gently.
Li Zheng laughed dryly, his face seemed to need training.
