From small clinic to medical empire

Chapter 179 The Inflection Point of the Journey
The peak tourist season in northern Sichuan is September and October, but in mid-November, the number of tourists begins to drop off a cliff.

By this time of year, the weather has turned significantly colder in the mountains and the leaves have begun to wither.

But looking at it from another perspective, the emerald sea and waterfalls under the autumn mood are also special.

After nearly 30 hours of driving, the Haoran tour group arrived at Yandi Town, Nanping County, AB State, Northern Sichuan.

Although it has not yet entered the scenic spot, the natural scenery along the way has feasted the eyes of everyone.

After getting out of the car, the coolness of the mountain area hit our face, making people shiver uncontrollably.

Compared with the doctors and nurses who were stamping their feet and breathing heavily, Durant put on thermal underwear early, leaning on a cane in one hand and holding a thermos cup in the other, looking calm.

"Officer Li, you are right. When middle-aged people have no choice but to put wolfberry in a thermos cup, the secret of Eastern people's longevity is really amazing!"

Durant is also 32 years old this year.

He used to feel that he was still a young man in his prime.

But during this time, his mentality changed dramatically.

It is better to be indifferent than to be competitive. People should follow the way of nature.

Li Chao twitched the corners of his mouth. He had been a police officer for so many years, and although he got along well with the old men and aunts, to be honest, he really didn't feel that he had entered middle age.

It was nothing more than being so entangled by Durant that he threw out the old-age regimen.

Who would have thought that it would actually work surprisingly well.

Did I go too far?

Originally, Lao Du had a good temper and didn't like conflicts with others, but now it seems that he has completely followed the Buddha's line and has nothing to do with the world.

The NBA is a highly competitive league. Wouldn't it be a good idea to have such a mentality?
Li Chao fell into deep self-blame.

In fact, he was overthinking it.

Who is Durant?

He was the one who endured all his uselessness silently, never accusing his teammates face to face, but blaming behind his back.

This kind of person is not so much a true buddhist as a man of shame.

Otherwise, he would not have been practicing Tai Chi silently and dreaming of one day sneaking up on Li Jingwang.

……

New Century Hotel is the second largest hotel in Nanping County, and Zhu Mei was waiting here early in the morning.

When I met Zhang Zifan and others again, Zhu Mei's complexion was very good, with delicate and light makeup on her regular features, she did not look like she was 36 years old at all.

"Dean Zhang, welcome to travel in Northern Sichuan!" Zhu Mei smiled and held out her hand.

"Haha, Sister Mei, thank you for your hospitality! You said on the phone that you specially asked for annual leave to be our tour guide, which is really very polite!"

Zhang Zifan shook hands with her, and then said with a smile, "Let's talk about it first, you have to give us a discount on the tour guide fee, otherwise we won't be able to afford a gold medal tour guide like Sister Mei!"

"Dean Zhang, you are joking, I am a voluntary laborer, you can take care of the food!"

Zhu Mei greeted everyone to check in, and introduced, "This hotel is opened by my little sister. It is the off-season for tourism, and I will give you a [-]% discount on the accommodation fee, as well as tickets for scenic spots. I have already greeted you." La!
However, the hotel's catering fee will not be discounted so much because of the transportation relationship. "

……

With the help of local people and staff from the tourism bureau, the itinerary of the Haoran tour group was naturally arranged properly.

Not only is it perfect for lightning protection, but you can choose a cost-effective tourist attraction, and there are also great discounts in terms of price.

Of course, this was mainly the time when Zhang Zifan and the others came, and it was indeed the off-season of the scenic spot.

If the eleventh golden week came, even Zhu Mei and her father would not be able to be so thoughtful and caring.

As the tour group arrived in the evening, it was almost evening.

Therefore, after everyone checked into the hotel, they planned to rest for a night, and Zhu Mei would take them up the mountain for fun the next day.

Apart from the well-known Jiuzhaigou Scenic Spot, there are actually many other sights worth seeing in Nanping, which are generally unknown to outsiders.

When checking into the hotel, Durant inevitably caused a little stir.

A big black man over two meters tall, it was difficult not to attract attention visually.

A male waiter recognized Durant, but wasn't sure.

After all, Durant was leaning on crutches, holding a thermos cup, and was bulging and wearing thick clothes. He didn't even know where he put on an army green coat and a cap on his head. dress up.

This is completely different from the one in the waiter's impression that although he is indeed a bit earthy, he is a superstar after all, and is completely different from Durant, who is crowned behind Westbrook and dressed in hip-hop.

It wasn't until the time of registering the information that the male waiter saw the name on the certificate, and then confirmed that the big black man in front of him was Kevin Durant!

Mountain teenagers also have basketball dreams. Immediately, Durant was surrounded by groups, those who wanted to sign autographs, and those who wanted to take pictures together.

Until later, even the proprietress of the hotel was alarmed, and took a photo with Durant, planning to hang it in the hotel lobby in the future.

……

Zhang Zifan had to admit that the celebrity's influence was indeed impressive.

As for doctors and scientists, unless they reach the level of Mr. Zhong and Ms. Tu, they are completely incomparable.

"No wonder everyone wants to become famous overnight. This is reality!"

Zhang Zifan patted Li Jingwang's arm, "Old Li, I hope you can have such a reputation one day."

Li Jingwang shook his head and said, "Dean, I think the hotel owner will regret that he didn't take a photo with you at the beginning."

"Haha, I'm not a celebrity, nor an internet celebrity! I'm just a hard-working, ordinary medical worker."

"But I think..."

Zhang Zifan waved his hand, turned around and let him go upstairs with his and Yang Tingting's salute.

……

Fortunately, it was the off-season for tourism, and the occupancy rate of the hotel was very low. Durant was besieged for more than half an hour before the hotel returned to normal.

As for the turmoil caused by the circle of friends and the media, it will not affect this small closed county for a while.

The dinner provided by the hotel is very rich.

Zhu Mei, as well as her little sister, the proprietress of the hotel, Wang Juan, showed the boldness of girls from northern Sichuan, and almost got Zhang Zifan drunk.

Fortunately, Yuan Qiang and Li Jingwang brought with them this time, both of them can drink quite well.

They protect the dharma from left to right, and keep the lord from drinking again and again.

If he had brought along Liu Jianming, a native of City S, Zhang Zifan would have been waiting for his body to be picked up.

……

In the next few days, under the leadership of Zhu Mei, the tour group visited Yandongling, Wucai Pond, Tiger Lake, Nuorilang Waterfall, Wuhua Lake, Pearl Beach and other places.

Except for a few unlucky ones who could not go anywhere in the hotel after only playing for one day due to altitude sickness, most of the employees were in high spirits.

It has to be said that the 5A-level scenic spots are by no means in vain.

The scenery of late autumn is like a scroll, quietly falling between the heaven and the earth, allowing everyone to temporarily forget the troubles of the world and enjoy a moment of tranquility.

Just like that, before I knew it, it was already November 11th.

Since Huaxi's open class invitation is on November 11, tomorrow is the last day of this trip to northern Sichuan.

According to the plan, after spending the last night in Nanping County, the tour group will go to Huanglong Scenic Area tomorrow to enjoy the plateau wetland with steep mountains and gorge.

After that, the group will leave northern Sichuan and head south to Chengdu.

Therefore, this night, the food in the hotel was very rich, and it had the characteristics of the Tibetan and Han ethnic groups.

Yang Tingting and Kong Xiang, two deputy directors of the hospital, took the lead. Everyone was frantically taking pictures of food and sorting out the photos of the previous two days.

This night, the circle of friends should have been dominated by these photos, but...

At this point in the development of things, a turning point occurred.

After posting to the circle of friends, everyone sighed at the end of the journey, and turned their deep reluctance into a strategy for food.

However, just as everyone was preparing their cups, the chandelier on the ceiling suddenly shook.

Then, the ground, the furniture, the dining table...everything shook violently!
