Open a Clinic to Cultivate Myself Chapter 126 A Series of Strange Things

Ning Tao explained, "I know it's a little sudden, but this is other's company, and we can't stay here forever. But don't worry. I've found a place, just in the Sword Pavilion Village where the new orphanage will be built. It has picturesque scenery. You must be comfortable there."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Su Ya was inexplicably excited and shouted, "Boys and girls, hurry up and pack your things. We are leaving here now!"

"Why is she reacting like that?"

Ning Tao suddenly felt that his explanation was unnecessary. In fact, all he had to say was, "let's go," and those kids would happily follow him to leave.

"Su Ya, you take the kids down in the elevator, and I'll call chief Lu before getting down," Ning Tao said.

"Good! Have you packed, everybody? Pack up and come with me." Su Ya really couldn't wait to get out of here.

The children didn't really have much to pack, so they quickly lined up and followed Su Ya to the elevator.

Ning Tao took out his cell phone and called Lu Nan. As soon as the call came through, he cut to the point and said, "Chief Lu, I have a slight incident. The children of the orphanage had no place to live. Do you have a place for them? If so, please help them out."

"No problem, you bring the children here. They can stay in the school, or I can ask the villagers to take two children to each family," Lu Nan agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you so much, Chief Lu," Ning Tao said politely.

"Why are you so polite to me, Doctor Ning? It's nothing compared to what you did for us," Lu Nan said.

Ning Tao smiled and continued, "Then I won't be polite. I'll take the children there now."

"Okay, I'll go and arrange the reception. Good-bye." Lu Nan stated and hung up.

Ning Tao put away his phone. Instead of taking the elevator down, he took the stairs to the floor he had just left. He felt a little strange when he passed the meeting room and saw the two foreigners. Moreover, Blueprint Biotechnology Company was a domestic biopharmaceutical company, and Hua Country's drugs were hard to export. So why did the two foreigners come to Blueprint Biotechnology Company to do business?

If it wasn't for the shootout that took place inside the botanical garden of Blueprint Biotechnology Company, and the gunman he met when he came here, Ning Tao wouldn't mind anyone else's business. Considering those two things, it was hard not to suspect them.

The VIP meeting room was close to the corridor, with its door closed, so the inside was not visible.

Ning Tao walked quietly to the door of the meeting room, and then put his ears as close to the gap between the door as possible.

"Mr. Takeda, tea, please." Ma Wuying's voice came from the door.

"Arigatou." A man's voice came through the door.

"He's Japanese?"

Ning Tao's brow furrowed. A Japanese appeared at this juncture, making things more complicated.

"Mr. Takeda, Mr. Arthur, let's start." This was Lin Donghai's voice.

Arthur should be the white man, and Ning Tao remembered the name.

"Let's cut to the chase." It was Takeda. "Our Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company would like to work with you to develop new plasters and potent drugs for men's new abilities. With our technology and your production line and sales network, we will open up your market together and achieve win-win cooperation."

Takeda's Chinese was a little unclear, but Ning Tao got it.

Then Ma Wuying's voice came out. "Mr. Lin, Miss Lin, Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company's Hisa plaster has long been a must-buy plaster for people traveling to Japan, and it has good analgesic and therapeutic effects for cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylosis. If we can get Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company's technology, there will be huge growth opportunities and profits for our company."

"Great, our Blueprint Biotechnology Company is one of the best biopharmaceutical companies in the country. If we work together, we can make a difference in the biggest drug market." Lin Donghai sounded happy.

Ning Tao was confused. "When I was in school, I heard a teacher said Japanese Hisa plaster was very effective and very popular. Japanese plaster technology originated in Hua Country. Our country lost the secret prescription because of the war, but it was carried forward in Japan." "But the teacher also said that Japan is very conservative about pharmaceutical technology and won't spread it to other countries. Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company is also a big company. How could they possibly come here to work with Blueprint Biotechnology Company and be willing to provide the technology?"

Then other man's voice came into Ning Tao's ear. "I represent UK Archer Investments. Our company will invest 100 million pounds in your project once you reach an agreement."

It was clearly the voice of the white man named Arthur. He spoke Chinese clearly, so his Chinese was at a very high level.

Lin Donghai's voice rang out. "All right, we'll come up with a plan as soon as possible."

"I love this city and I value this partnership. I made a point of having my son Tamao Takeda throw a party at eight o'clock tonight at our consulate. I want you to come," Takeda's voice said.

Lin Donghai's voice replied, "My wife, my daughter and I are sure to come."

"I don't feel well. I don't want to go. You go with mom," Lin Qingyu's voice said.

Takeda's voice said, "Miss Lin, my son Tamao admires you..."

Ning Tao, who was in the hallway, turned and walked to the stairwell before Takeda finished his words. As soon as he entered the stairwell, Ma Wuying's assistant came to the door of the meeting room with a stack of documents before she knocked on the door and entered.

Ning Tao didn't go back. On his way down the stairs, he texted Lin Qingyu, saying, "Qingyu, there's something wrong. Don't go to the party at the Japanese consulate."

30 seconds later he received a text message from Lin Qingyu saying, "I will definitely go. Where I go is none of your business."

Ning Tao had a headache about this, but he knew Lin Qingyu was still angry with him. Instead of texting, he gave Jiang Hao a call. However, the call that always got through failed this time. He tried twice more, but still couldn't get through.

"What happened?"

Ning Tao felt terrible.

Downstairs, Ge Ming and Su Ya had rented a bus, and the kids were lined up, waiting for him to announce their departure.

"Come on, let's go to the Sword Pavilion Village," said Ning Tao, still thinking about all this weird stuff.

"Tao, what's the matter with you? You look worried." Ge Ming asked solicitously as he saw Ning Tao's sullen face.

Ning Tao replied, "Nothing."

Su Ya interrupted, "You must be reluctant to leave Lin Qingyu."

But Ning Tao wasn't in the mood for a joke.

When the kids got into the bus, Ning Tao said to Ge Ming, "Chopper, I've already talked to Chief Lu that the kids will be there. You just take the kids there. I have an important matter to attend to. I won't go with you."

"What is it? Can I help you?" Ge Ming asked.

Ning Tao said, "No, you can't help, and don't ask. Take the children there first."

"Well, I'll take the children there first." Ge Ming stopped asking and went to the bus.

Su Ya looked at Ning Tao and seemed to have a lot to say, but just said, "Be careful."

Ning Tao nodded.

An hour later, Ning Tao took a cab to the botanical garden of Blueprint Biotechnology Company.

"Stop! This is a military control area. Please get out of here." A heavily armed special forces guard warned Ning Tao as he walked toward the gate.

Ning Tao stopped and said, "I'm Ning Tao, and I have an important matter to talk to Officer Jiang, Jiang Hao. Please inform her for me."

"Wait a minute, I make a phone call." The guard entered the guard house.

Ning Tao stood outside for more than 10 minutes before a shuttle electric vehicle to arrive from the botanical garden. It was Jiang Hao who was driving. She looked dashing with her short hair and heavily-armed combat uniform.

When she got out of the shuttle, Ning Tao thought she was going to talk to the guard and take him in, but Jiang Hao walked out of the gate, saying, "Let's walk and talk."

Ning Tao sensed something was wrong with the atmosphere, but didn't ask what happened. "Well, let's go down that path," he said.

There was a path near the botanical garden of Blueprint Biotechnology Company that led to somewhere. Ning Tao and Jiang Hao walked down the path. Both sides of the path were wooded and silent.

Walking for a while, Ning Tao looked back and asked, "I called you, but your phone was turned off. What happened?"

Jiang Hao replied, "Liang Keming issued new orders that no one should use their cell phones, no one should contact anyone. No one outside is allowed to enter the botanical garden."

Confused, Ning Tao asked, "Why did he give such orders?"

Jiang Hao shrugged and said, "I don't know, but there are signs that he's making a breakthrough. Maybe that's why."

"How's Lin Qinghua?" Ning Tao inquired.

"I haven't seen him in days," Jiang Hao replied.

Somehow a sense of foreboding rose in Ning Tao's heart, but he could not express it in words.

"You didn't come to me just to ask me these questions, did you?" Jiang Hao stopped and looked at Ning Tao.

Ning Tao responded, "I met two people today at Blueprint Biotechnology Company. One is Takeda from Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company, and I judge him to be the head of the company. The other one is Arthur from UK Archer Investments. The two talked to Lin Donghai and Lin Qingyu about cooperation, saying that they wanted to develop a drug like Viagra and plaster with Blueprint Biotechnology Company, and then invited Lin Qinghua and Lin Qingyu to attend a party at the Japanese consulate. I thought it was weird, so I called you. As I didn't get through, I came over to talk to you."

Jiang Hao was silent for a moment before she said, "This is really weird. What do you think?"

Ning Tao paused slightly. "I?"
