Chapter 530 The more ordinary, the more troublesome
At nearly two o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming finally waited for a Chinese-American named Cao Xian in the large office in the central building.
He is a 43-year-old square-faced middle-aged man nearly 1.8 meters tall, somewhat thin, well-dressed.
"Hello, Dr. Yu!"
The Mandarin spoken by the other party sounded a bit awkward and uncomfortable to Yu Zhiming.
However, he already knew.
This person was born and raised abroad, and now he can speak reasonably fluent Chinese, which is pretty good.
"Mr. Cao, hello..."
After a brief acquaintance between the two parties, Cao Xian came over alone and handed over a flat, dark red solid wood box that looked like an old-fashioned briefcase.
"Doctor Yu, this is the chess set made by the Qing Dynasty minister He Shen."
"Please take a look and appraise it."
The other party acted so straightforward and magnanimously, which made Yu Zhiming a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Cao, don't worry about this. It's not too late to taste this chess set after discussing your condition and checking your body."
Cao Xian chuckled and said, "I've been having this inexplicable fever for more than half a year, so that's about it."
"Let's take a look at this chess piece first."
After hearing what he said, Yu Zhiming did not refuse anymore and opened the mahogany box with Qing Ning and Zhou Mo.
After opening the box, what caught the eyes of several people was red velvet and three identification certificates.
Cao Xian said: "These three appraisal certificates were prepared by three cultural relic appraisal experts alone."
"They all confirmed three points. Huanghuali is Heshen's font and was made in the late Qianlong period."
Yu Zhiming said softly, and did not look at the appraisal certificate, but directly opened the flannelette.
One after another, neatly arranged drum-shaped chess pieces with a diameter of three to four centimeters were displayed before their eyes.
What surprised Yu Zhiming was that the chess pieces were not divided into two types based on the color of the font, but were unique.
One is the chess pieces in regular script font using the method of positive carving, and the other is the chess pieces in running script font using the method of negative carving.
Yu Zhiming can only say that the words on the chess pieces are quite pleasing to the eye and are good words.
He couldn't see anything else.
After all, his own handwriting is better than that of a primary school student.
Yu Zhiming picked up a chess piece that was brown and almost black. It was heavier than he expected and felt heavy in the hand.
The density is quite high, so it is undoubtedly a good wood.
He also found that these chess pieces were well preserved, and none of them had cracks or obvious wear.
Yu Zhiming, Qing Ning, and Zhou Mo exchanged glances with each other and noticed the helplessness in their eyes.
The so-called lines are separated by mountains. They don't understand the appraisal at all, and they have no way of distinguishing the true from the false.
As for the three appraisal certificates, all three of them know about it, so that doesn’t explain the problem.
Just find a "certificate application" contact number on a certain wall and call it, and you'll spend hundreds of dollars haggling over the price.
What kind of certificate can’t be obtained?
The Chinese are quite proficient in this aspect, and it is not that difficult to distinguish the fake from the real.
Therefore, they are too lazy to look through it.
However, what Yu Zhiming is sure of is that the other party wants something from him, and he should not dare to lie in this regard.
Unless he was also deceived or didn't know about it.
"Mr. Cao, the reason why I am looking for such a chess with historical value is because I want to visit my elders. They are enthusiasts, researchers and collectors of this kind of chess."
Yu Zhiming gave a simple explanation and said apologetically: "I feel like you are taking advantage of someone's misfortune by asking you to part with such a good thing, Mr. Cao."
Cao Xian smiled warmly and said: "Dr. Yu, you are too polite."
"This chess set remains with me, but it is like a pearl covered in dust. This chess set allows me to get to know you, Dr. Yu. It is a great honor for me."
Yu Zhiming smiled softly, suddenly feeling that this kind of false politeness was a bit hypocritical and embarrassing.
The next moment, he directly entered the role of a doctor that made him extremely comfortable.
"Mr. Cao, I've seen the chess set. Let's go to the examination room for a physical examination..."
Entering the examination room, Cao Xian followed Yu Zhiming's instructions, took off his coat and lay down on the examination bed.
Yu Zhiming followed the steps and started the inspection from scratch.
Just...
After checking, no abnormalities were found.
I checked again and still found nothing.
After three checks, still nothing.
Yu Zhiming spent more than half an hour carefully inspecting Cao Xianzai three times from head to toe, and it was still front and back.
What made Yu Zhiming frown was that there was no discovery worth exploring in depth.
Of course, Cao Xian still had some physical problems, and Yu Zhiming discovered several of them.
Among them, there are two that are more serious.
One is liver damage.
Second, the gastrointestinal function has significantly deteriorated.
Both of these problems can be explained by the fact that they are caused by frequent use of cooling and antipyretic drugs.
It’s medicine with three parts poison.
One of the main side effects of antipyretic drugs is that they can cause mild damage to liver function. For example, there may be an increase in alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, etc.
The second side effect is adverse stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract.
For example, indigestion symptoms such as upper abdominal distension and discomfort, dull pain, nausea, vomiting, fullness, belching, loss of appetite and other indigestion symptoms may occur.
If you take antipyretics for a long time, you may develop gastrointestinal ulcers, and even bleeding or perforation.
In addition, antipyretic drugs also act on the nervous system, which may cause symptoms such as headache, dizziness, tinnitus, deafness, drowsiness, insomnia, abnormal sensation and other symptoms.
In addition to these two serious physical problems, what Yu Zhiming detected in Cao Xian are minor problems that are common to many people.
Liver damage, gastrointestinal problems, and several other minor physical problems, Yu Zhiming is certain that they are not the main culprits causing Cao Xian's constant fever.
Otherwise, it would not be Yu Zhiming's turn to give Cao Xian a physical examination today.
All in all, the three physical examinations that Yu Zhiming conducted on Cao Xian found no physical abnormalities related to fever that deserved further study and analysis.
However, Yu Zhiming was not discouraged.
If he could easily find a problem that no domestic or foreign medical experts had discovered, he would be looking down on other people’s abilities.

Take him back to the soundproof bedroom of your residence for inspection?
Yu Zhiming, who was thinking about it, suddenly realized a small problem. Cao Xian's body temperature at this time was normal.
"Mr. Cao, has your body temperature been controlled with cooling medicine? Or is your body no longer feverish now?"
Cao Xian sat on the examination bed and replied: "Doctor Yu, my current temperature is normal."
"No fever."
He then introduced: "Dr. Yu, after I developed this inexplicable fever symptom, in the United States, I had to have a fever every day for as short as one or two days and as long as three to five days."
"The body temperature ranges from thirty-eight degrees Celsius to thirty-nine degrees Celsius."
"In the past month or so, I have been receiving traditional Chinese medicine treatment in Beijing, and it has produced some results, extending the time between fevers to a week at most."
"It's just that we still haven't been able to get a cure."
After a pause, Cao Xian added: "It has been three days since my last fever attack."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said frankly: "Mr. Cao, I need to tell you that I checked you three times in succession, but there were no special findings related to your fever."
"After your body becomes warm, you need to do another check-up."
Yu Zhiming saw Cao Xian nodding to indicate that he had taken note of it, and then warned: "When your fever attacks, if it is during my working hours, come directly to the hospital to see me."
"If it's not during working hours, you can contact me by phone before 11pm."
Cao Xian nodded again.
Yu Zhiming explained again: "Mr. Cao, remember, when you have a fever and come for examination, do not take antipyretics to control your body temperature."
"In that case, the physical abnormality causing the fever should be the most obvious."
After a pause, Yu Zhiming turned to warn and said: "Dr. Cao, if you keep taking antipyretic drugs, your liver and gastrointestinal tract will have big problems."
Cao Xian said with a bitter look on his face: "Doctor Yu, I also know that taking too many antipyretic drugs can damage the liver, stomach, and body."
"But when I get a fever, I get a headache, a bloated brain, and my whole body feels weak and uncomfortable. I can't do much at all."
"There's nothing I can do about it."
"Moreover, I am now very resistant to antipyretic drugs. In the past, one or two pills were very effective, but now I have to take four or five pills."
Cao Xian pleaded again: "Doctor Yu, now I place all my hopes on you."
"Please take your time."
Yu Zhiming said softly: "I will do my best..."
Next, Yu Zhiming took Cao Xian back to the big office.
He took the two agreements printed by Zhou Mo and handed them to Cao Xian.
"Mr. Cao, this is the transfer agreement for chess. Please take a look at it first. If you have any different opinions, we can discuss it later."
Cao Xian didn't even read the agreement, and said calmly: "Dr. Yu, this chess set is my greeting gift."
"You don't have to do this, just accept it."
Yu Zhiming said righteously: "This is a valuable cultural relic, how can you accept it casually?"
"It's not allowed by hospital rules and regulations."
"Let's go through the normal transfer procedures."
People's hearts are separated from each other by their belly, so it is essential to be on guard against others.
For example, the girl's father made a big promise last night, but the child was found safely, but he regretted it.
This Cao Xian is speaking very nicely now.
However, the disease is cured, or Yu Zhiming is unable to do anything. At that time, it is possible that he will change his story and change his face.
Yu Zhiming needs some forms and means to protect himself.
He glanced at the time and then said: "Mr. Cao, I made an appointment with someone else to consult a patient at three o'clock."
Yu Zhiming pointed to the Gu Qing Ning beside him and said: "This is my girlfriend Gu Qing Ning."
"She can sign the agreement for me and have full authority to negotiate the transfer terms with Mr. Cao on my behalf..."
Next, Gu Qingning stayed alone in the big office and signed a chess transfer agreement with Cao Xian.
Yu Zhiming, accompanied by Zhou Mo, hurriedly left the central building and rushed to the cardiac surgery department...
