Ling Tian received a call from Wu Sanbao himself as soon as he returned to the capital last night.
The next morning, lawyer Zhu Chengxiang personally drove to pick up Ling Tian.
This time, upon arriving at the villa area in the western suburbs again, the security personnel's inspection of Ling Tian was much more relaxed. His identification still proved useful.
However, they did not go directly to Elder Meng's home but to a hospital located in the central area of the villa complex.
This hospital had only three floors and an elegant environment. It was more like a sanatorium than a hospital.
But Ling Tian knew that the doctors in this hospital would be sought after by any hospital if they were to be released.
Even any attending physician casually picked from here would be an expert of the Baoshan Bureau's caliber.
Ling Tian was invited into a conference room. More than a dozen people were seated there, including several leaders from the Baoshan Bureau.
They repeatedly confirmed his treatment plan with Ling Tian.
"Dr. Ling Tian, you must understand that Elder Meng is not an ordinary patient, and your treatment for Elder Meng carries immense significance," Deputy Director Wu emphasized to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian understood the unspoken meaning of his words: if the treatment failed, not only would Ling Tian's medical career be ruined, but everyone else's future would also be jeopardized.
Ling Tian nodded firmly, his eyes filled with confidence. What surprised everyone present was the aura of confidence that Ling Tian exuded.
Such an aura was not possessed by ordinary young doctors; it was something only found in figures of the highest caliber in the medical field!
After receiving Ling Tian's affirmative answer and signing a stack of agreements, Elder Meng was finally wheeled into the operating room.
The treatment lasted for over an hour. The experts watching the procedure from outside had their hearts pounding, their lips dry, and their blood pressure surging.
Several of them almost needed emergency medical attention. When the treatment finally concluded, Elder Meng, who was asleep, was moved to a ward. A group of experts swarmed into the ward, beginning a comprehensive examination of Elder Meng.
The results of the examination surprised everyone. Elder Meng's vital signs were stable, and he was sleeping soundly, showing no signs of having just undergone a complex surgical procedure!
"I never expected this, truly a young hero. Dr. Ling Tian is so young, yet possesses such medical skill. This is truly a blessing for Traditional Chinese Medicine!" a leader from the Baoshan Bureau exclaimed incessantly.
The others around him nodded, though it was unclear whether their agreement was sincere or forced.
"By the way, Dr. Ling Tian, my stomach and intestines have been a bit uncomfortable lately. Could you help me with acupuncture and conditioning?" a leader-like figure suddenly asked.
Ling Tian shook his head, feigning exhaustion.
"Sir, it's not that I don't want to help you, but my strength is depleted. You should understand the immense pressure I was under treating Elder Meng just now. I'm almost completely exhausted and just want to find a place to sleep. If you want to condition your stomach and intestines, we have experts here. Teacher Gu is present; I wouldn't dare to show off my limited skills!"
Ling Tian's words were a display of emotional intelligence. He was perfectly capable of treating the leader, but there were many renowned Chinese medicine practitioners present, especially experts in acupuncture like Quan Daquan. Ling Tian had already garnered significant attention today. If he were to take on this task as well, it would affect how others perceived him and would inadvertently offend a large number of people. Some who admired him might turn into adversaries. Such is human nature! Fortunately, Ling Tian was not ignorant when he was on the mountain. He had several excellent teachers who had taught him to dissect human nature with absolute clarity.
As expected, upon seeing Ling Tian's reaction, the expressions of other Chinese medicine practitioners, led by Gu Daquan, improved considerably. Their impression of Ling Tian also greatly enhanced. Such a young man, capable and humble, who wouldn't like him?
After the treatment concluded, Ling Tian declined the invitation for a meal from Elder Meng's family and directly took a car to Tianxi Group.
In the reception room on the 66th floor, Ling Tian met the big boss of Tianxi Group, Gu Jiafu.
"Apologies, Senior Brother. I've been too busy lately and haven't had the chance to pay my respects!" Ling Tian said with a smile.
"Heh heh, Junior Brother is a busy man; I understand. The capable are always in demand," Gu Jiafu chuckled.
"Here, Senior Brother, I didn't come empty-handed. I brought you a case of good wine!" As Ling Tian spoke, he brought forward a paper box he was carrying. He opened it and handed a bottle of wine to Gu Jiafu.
Gu Jiafu noticed the wine's simple packaging: a glass bottle with a label that read: Shahe Medicinal Wine.
"Junior Brother, what is this?"
"Medicinal wine, very nourishing. Rest assured, I formulated this recipe myself. The base is our winery's finest white wine, so the taste is excellent. As for the effects, you'll know once you try it! This wine hasn't been released yet; it's a limited edition. Please, Senior Brother, have a taste!"
"Alright, since it's something Junior Brother recommends, I must study it carefully..."
After a brief chat, Ling Tian suddenly spoke.
"Senior Brother, I want to buy a private jet to facilitate my travel between the capital and Jiangzhou. Do you have any connections or know anyone in this regard?"
"Oh? Buying a plane, that's understandable. Yes, your businesses are quite substantial now, and time is even more precious to you. What kind of aircraft were you considering?"
"A few days ago, I flew on the Zhuo family's Gulfstream G550. I also looked at some private jet specifications and felt this aircraft is very suitable. With a range of over ten thousand kilometers, it's basically enough for me to make several round trips between Jiangzhou and the capital. Flying from Jiangzhou to any domestic destination would be a direct flight, without needing to refuel midway. Additionally, its cruising speed of over 900 kilometers per hour is similar to that of commercial airliners, and its fuel consumption and maintenance costs are also quite reasonable..."
Tianxi Group owned several private business jets, so Gu Jiafu was very familiar with the matter. He immediately opened up and began speaking at length with Ling Tian.
"Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother, to help me contact the manufacturer or dealer of this aircraft."
"Junior Brother, do you insist on buying a new plane?" Gu Jiafu suddenly asked.
"Not necessarily, Senior Brother. What do you mean? Are there used planes available?"
"Haha, you might not know this, but private jets don't always have to be new. If there's a suitable option, buying a used one is also fine. Many used planes have hardly been flown by their owners, and the entire aircraft is almost like new. Especially since these planes have already gone through their break-in period, their safety and fuel efficiency might even surpass new aircraft. Most importantly, they are cheaper."
