In the blink of an eye, a few days later, Xie Yan was running back and forth between Wen's house, the theater and the publishing house every day, and occasionally went to Mr. Wen's house to communicate, or to Bai Luoqiu's house to chat with Bai Luoqiu. His own undercurrent surged.

And the conspiracy hidden in the darkness has been breeding and fermenting, and finally, it broke out completely in the early morning of this day.

Xie Yan had just finished breakfast and was about to go out when she saw Qi Xiu hurrying over.

Qi Xiuji's clinic has been expanded several times, and with the support of the inspector government, it has now become a very famous medical institution in Hankou, and many foreigners sometimes come to see him.But Qi Xiuji has always adhered to the original intention, did not increase the price, and did not move the clinic. While continuing to treat the poor at a low price, he began to slowly promote the first batch of Chinese patent medicines from the pharmaceutical factory. Now he is doing things more and more decently. Will be as stupefied as before.

"Brother Qi?" Xie Yan greeted him, "Are you here to ask about the pharmaceutical factory? Wen Heng is still inside."

The anxious look on Qi Xiuji's face remained undiminished, and after seeing Xie Yan, he showed a happy expression, "Xiao Mr. Xie, as long as you are still here, I am here to find you!"

"Find me?"

Qi Xiuji shoved the newspaper into Xie Yan's hands, "Look quickly! The headlines on the front page."

When Xie Yan got the newspaper, he took a quick look at it. Qi Xiuji gave him a total of five or six newspapers, some of which were large newspapers with foreign participation, and some were tabloids run by Chinese people.As for the content, it was nothing more than the fact that the identity issue that he had expected before finally broke out.

""New Liubao" exclusively reveals the true identity of the person who discovered it for you—what is it like to be an actor?"

"Pretending to be mysterious - those who discovered it lost their horses and aroused public anger"

"Today's special report, the secret that Xie Yan, the owner of Hankou Theater, has to say"

……

Xie Yan raised the newspaper in his hand, "It seems that we won't be able to go out for a while, brother Qi, go in and sit down?"

"Huh?" Qi Xiuji looked bewildered.

In order to meet the needs of different customers, the clinic has subscribed to many mainstream newspapers and tabloids. When there are no patients, Qi Xiuji will read the newspapers to pass the time.After the newspapers were delivered this morning, Qi Xiuji realized that something was wrong, and immediately told his assistants to keep an eye on the clinic, and hurried to Wen's home to remind him.

"These newspapers have a large audience in Hankou. At this time, the newsboys have already picked up the goods, and those who subscribed to the newspapers have also received and read the newspapers. So many articles are obviously premeditated! Xie Yan, they are targeting you Come on, think of a way!"

"What are you talking about?"

Qi Xiu was so anxious that his eyes were staring, when he suddenly heard another familiar voice, he fixed his eyes and saw that Wen Heng was standing behind Xie Yan at some point.

"Wen Heng. You came just in time. Read the newspaper first, and then help you think about what to do."

Wen Heng put his arms around Xie Yan's shoulders, looked down at the newspaper with his hands, and hummed.

Under Qi Xiuji's expectant eyes, Wen Heng asked, "Go in and have a seat?"

"..." Qi Xiuji was completely speechless, he really wanted to laugh at himself with a very bad word - dogs meddling with mice.

Xie Yan smiled, "Brother Qi, just go in with us, it's too cold outside, and it's not a place to talk."

The three of them walked into the compound together, Qi Xiuji was full of doubts, knowing what he was asking from Xie Yan, so he simply walked a few steps to catch up with the more familiar Wen Heng.

"how?"

"Aren't you worried?" Qi Xiuji lowered his voice, "The newspapers slandered Xie Yan so much, I thought it was because of your temper—or did you already know?"

"I don't know." Wen Heng shook his head, the two of them are very busy recently, and during the rare time they spend together, they seldom talk about the troublesome things at hand.

"Then why are you not in a hurry?"

Wen Heng glanced at Xie Yan's back a few steps away, and smiled, "Because I trust him, you can tell by his appearance, it's just a trivial matter."

"In my heart, Xie Yan is omnipotent."

……

"Hurry up, you two, what are you whispering?" Xie Yan didn't know if she had heard the conversation between Wen Heng and Qi Xiuji, and suddenly stopped and turned her head to urge.

Wen Heng responded and followed, and Qi Xiu, who had been fed a mouth full of dog food, patted his head quickly, come on, it seems that he doesn't have to worry, just stay and watch Mr. Xie show off his might.

……

After taking a seat in the living room, Xie Yan carefully read the newspaper that Qi Xiuji brought. Although the titles of the articles published in the newspaper were different, the structure of the articles was similar, and many details were exactly the same. It is estimated that they were written by the same group of people.

"Brother Qi, are these newspapers the only ones that publish articles by me and the present?"

"That's all I can find on hand. There may be some that I haven't ordered, or that haven't been delivered yet."

"Yeah." Xie Yan put the newspaper on the table, "The movement was a little smaller than I expected, and I guess there are still people behind."

"Expectation?" Qi Xiuji was taken aback, "You already knew about such a thing?"

"You have been seeing a doctor in the clinic recently, and the news is not well-informed. In fact, rumors about the current person have been spreading in Hankou since a while ago."

Qi Xiuji was not stupid. After calming down, he quickly heard what Xie Yan meant, "So the current situation is within your expectations, and you let it happen?"

"If you don't let them use all their methods, how can you avoid future troubles forever?"

Qi Xiu quickly took a sip of the tea brought by the maid, got up and said goodbye, "I know you know what's on your mind, I'm relieved, there's still something to do at the clinic, I'm leaving first."

After seeing the bad news, he dropped everything early in the morning to personally remind his friends. Although Qi Xiuji had grown up a lot, he was still that naive and idealistic young man in his heart.

Xie Yan got up to send him off, "Thank you for the work of the clinic. I heard from the patrol a while ago that I want to recruit some foreign medical students in the name of the government, expand your clinic, and gradually transform it into a public hospital. You still have some work to do in the future." .”

Qi Xiuji shook his head, "As long as the Chinese people have the money to see a doctor and take medicine, and there are fewer tragedies caused by illness, it doesn't matter if I'm busy."

Now the research of Chinese patent medicine has made great progress. Some simple pills can be used clinically. The clinic’s reputation is getting higher and higher. Grandpa also recognized his medical skills amidst the thanks of the people and fully supported his work. Career, for Qi Xiuji, now is the best time for him to display his ambitions.

"Let me ask one more question." Before leaving the door, Qi Xiuji stopped suddenly, "Can you tell me about your specific response method? Otherwise, I'm afraid that I'll hear other news after I go back, and I won't feel at ease again."

Xie Yan smiled, "I'm going to wait."

"Wait?"

"The people behind the scenes sowed the seeds of doubt, and the rumors quickly took root and sprouted when they met the right soil, but in the process, there will also be voices of opposition and doubt, which will limit its growth. When both of these develop, Then I will take the gardeners to weed together, so as to cut the weeds and get rid of the roots.”

Qi Xiuji finally left in a daze, but even though he didn't understand Xie Yan's words, the feeling of peace of mind had already passed to him.

Thinking of all the miracles that Xie Yan had created in these short months, Qi Xiuji had reason to believe that he would get through this difficult time perfectly.

The next day, Xie Yan really waited.Send someone to send a message to the theater that everything is business as usual, don’t rush to speak up for him when you send a message to the publishing house, explain to your friends that there is no need to worry, and after dealing with all kinds of temptations with malicious intentions, Xie Yan canceled all the plans to go out, comfortable Lie on the sofa and read the documents.

The teenager was wearing casual clothes, half of his body was buried in the soft sofa, and he was reading quietly by the French window, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

After Wen Heng went out for a trip and came back, he saw this quiet and leisurely scene.

"looking at what?"

"Information about some scholars who want to come to Hankou to develop after reading Minzhi."

Although Minzhi was released not long ago, thanks to Xie Yan's various campaigns, it has already gained a certain reputation among Chinese scholars.Minzhi's practice of collecting and publishing cutting-edge research results from home and abroad and creating an academic platform is undoubtedly ahead of this era.After reading Minzhi, many people became curious about Hankou and Minzhi’s publishing house, and some who had little concern for serving the country even wrote directly to hope to develop here.

Such a smooth attracting of talents is not only due to the credit of Minzhi Monthly, but also due to the good name accumulated by Fang Qingming, the inspector in Huguang over the years.

With developed information, convenient life, many comrades, and the government doing something, Hankou meets the conditions of an ideal place for many Chinese scholars to serve the country.

Some of these scholars wrote letters directly to the inspectorate, and some sent the materials to the wise publishing house, and the part sent to the publishing house was naturally handed over to Xie Yan.

Xie Yan put all the materials he had read neatly at hand. Currently, the number of scholars who are actually taking action is not too many. Many of them are young students who have just returned from studying abroad, but Xie Yan believes that there will never be fewer people who are waiting and watching. The role of Zhizhibao has gradually become more prominent, and the research environment in Hankou has become stronger. Sooner or later, it will become a gathering place for Chinese talents who are constantly innovating.

The funds and equipment left by Xiang Yanlin also found the best home and completed their mission.

Xie Yan looked out the window. After a long and severe winter, although the temperature is still cold, some hardy trees have already sprouted tender green buds. Given time, it will be a vibrant emerald green.

Xie Yan was a little dazed, and didn't move or speak for a long time.Wen Heng held his hand and sat beside him, waiting for him to speak.

"It's going to be spring."

"Well, it's spring."

Xie Yan looked at Wen Heng, "When the matter at hand is settled and the road is easier to walk, I want to go to Beijing."

"I'll accompany you."

Xie Yan smiled, "Why don't you ask me?"

Wen Heng straightened the hair covering his eyes for him, "If you want to say something, I've been listening."

Xie Yan looked down at the hands they held together, all the way up, arms, shoulders, Adam's apple, lips, nose, eyes, eyebrows...

Wen Heng smiled and asked him, "Does it look good?"

"Slightly worse than me." Xie Yanhui held his lover's hand, the other's appearance was his eternal anchor in this time and space.

"After the matter subsides, you accompany me to the capital to pay homage to Xie Yan's relatives, and then we will go home."

"At that time, I may have something to tell you." Xie Yan thought for a while, "Or maybe not."

Wen Heng's response was to smile, "Okay."

On the willow tree outside the window, a few sparrows were startled by the sound of the wind and flew towards the sky. The budding willow branches swayed in the cold wind, announcing the arrival of spring.
