Doctor Xiong grumbled and refused to drink until Ling Jiezhou opened a bottle of Jian Nanchun. Then, he narrowed his eyes and enjoyed the night in the small courtyard, as well as the faint starry sky that was rarely seen in the city.
In contrast, Doctor Miao was still in high spirits. He did not say much and just toasted Ling Jiezhou. Soon, he was half drunk. Then, he shook his head and shouted, "Where's Doctor Ling? I want to toast to Doctor Ling!"
His relationship with Lower Groove Clinic was more of a partnership. In the past, he often went to other small hospitals and clinics to provide medical services. However, as Lower Groove Clinic became more famous, more patients came in, and the equipment and instruments were upgraded, Doctor Miao was now stationed there. It went without saying that the further development of Lower Groove Clinic would bring him great benefits.
On the other hand, Doctor Miao could also learn a lot from Ling Ran. The feeling of having money and a bright future made Doctor Miao's eyes tremble when he called Ling Ran.
"Ling Ran is asleep. His mother doesn't let him drink." Ling Jiezhou casually used Tao Ping as a shield.
Doctor Miao was stunned. "His mother?"
"Yes, his mother has the final say in the family." As Ling Jiezhou spoke, he raised his glass and clinked it with Felix. "Cheers!"
Felix chuckled and drank. There was no need to persuade him at all.
Doctor Miao also drank the wine in his glass in a daze and mumbled, "But … but …"
"Keep your voice down. Don't wake Ling Ran up." Ling Jiezhou suppressed his voice and said, "No buts. I have to listen to my wife at home."
"But!" Doctor Miao pointed at Ling Jiezhou, nodded, and said, "Isn't Lower Groove Clinic built in your courtyard?"
Ling Jiezhou was stunned. He shook his head slightly and said, "In essence, if my wife is willing to take care of it, I have to listen to her about the clinic."
"It doesn't seem to be a problem." Doctor Miao looked at Doctor Xiong.
"Don't look at me. I pretend to be tired when I go home." Doctor Xiong drank until his glass was empty. He could not help but sing, "The north wind blows, the snowflakes float, the snowflakes float, the new year is coming …"
Felix and Karen immediately applauded.
"You sang so well."
"Very interesting."
"What's the content of the song?"
Ling Jiezhou thought for a moment and said, "It's mainly about capitalists."
"The capitalists are so bad."
"That's right, capital is trash."
The two American citizens were drinking Erguotou and arguing with each other.
…
Upper Groove.
Zhang Tiancheng, who was in the community clinic, looked at the patients in the treatment room restlessly and looked at his phone from time to time.
"Son of a bitch, how dare you tell such a lie!" When he scrolled through Ling Jiezhou's Moments and saw the image of Ling Jiezhou lining up for consultation in Lower Groove Clinic, Zhang Tiancheng completely exploded.
"Boss, you aren't from Sichuan, right?" The young nurse standing behind the medicine cabinet had nothing to do, so she chatted casually.
"Can't I scold him if I'm not from Sichuan?" Zhang Tiancheng said angrily. He used two fingers to expand the red banner on the phone screen and said, "I don't think he's an American expert. Do you think there aren't many liars nowadays? We Chinese really think that when we see a Caucasian, we think he's an American. Maybe he's just a vagrant from America. "
"What do you mean by 'vagrant'?" The young nurse asked.
Zhang Tiancheng explained angrily and helplessly, "They are unemployed."
"That's right, I saw it on the news. Just like the foreign teachers in some schools, no one knows who they are. But Doctor Ling is a specialist in Yun Hua Hospital, and I heard that he's quite good. He shouldn't be that bad, right? " When the young nurse in the community hospital in Upper Groove mentioned Doctor Ling, her eyes also lit up, and she was especially talking about Ling Ran.
Zhang Tiancheng actually believed that with Ling Ran around, they might really be able to find an American doctor. However, he did not believe that it was a world-class doctor at all.
Zhang Tiancheng said in disdain, "So what if he's an American doctor? Do you think that American specialists know more about fluid transfusions? "
The young nurse burst out laughing. "I heard that Americans don't receive fluid transfusions?"
"Fluid transfusions or not, it's impossible for the person to be an American specialist. I'm in the medical field myself, how can I not know? "Zhang Tiancheng scolded and said," Ling Jiezhou is really good at bragging! Let me put it this way, if there's really a famous medical specialist in the world, he can go to a private hospital in Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou, and he can still get a full schedule even if the registration fee is 66,600 RMB. "
"Wouldn't that disease cost more than a million RMB?"
"Rich people can spend more than a million RMB just to buy a bag. It's nothing to save their own lives." As Zhang Tiancheng spoke, he pointed in the direction of Lower Groove Clinic and said, "A straightforward person doesn't resort to insinuations. As far as I know, if Ling Jiezhou's son is willing to go to a private hospital, he's qualified to perform surgeries that cost more than a million RMB. But if you say that he can invite a world-class specialist or something, I believe that he can. It's also possible for him to find an excuse to invite him for a meeting or something. But isn't it nonsense when you say that he can invite a world-class specialist to Lower Groove Clinic? Even the richest man in Yun Hua City doesn't have that kind of reputation. "
He was more than willing to call Ling Ran Ling Jiezhou's son. After all, he and Ling Jiezhou had been rivals for decades. When he said that, he felt quite good.
The young nurse also listened with interest. She then asked, "Who's the richest man in Yun Hua City?"
"I'll go and take a look." Zhang Tiancheng felt that the conversation could not continue, so he grabbed his phone and walked away.
Upper Groove Alley and Lower Groove Alley were two intersecting alleys.
Zhang Tiancheng walked for a while, took another turn, and saw the location of Lower Groove Clinic. It was not because he had good eyesight, but because there were many people in front of Lower Groove Clinic, and he could see it with just one glance.
Ling Jiezhou's photo on his Moments was not a lie.
Zhang Tiancheng became even more jealous. He walked over and saw a few people in formal attire helping to maintain order. At the same time, they were serving tea and moving chairs for the people in the queue.
"You even want to use your son's pharmaceutical sales representative? Shameless." Zhang Tiancheng also knew pharmaceutical sales representatives.
This was especially so for the pharmaceutical sales representatives of vaccine manufacturers. They still attached great importance to people in charge of community hospitals like Zhang Tiancheng. They would give Zhang Tiancheng a small gift every now and then, but only senior doctors in big hospitals could enjoy the painstaking work of working hard.
Zhang Tiancheng was a little envious of this. He smacked his lips and took two photos from afar.
"Old Zhang, Doctor Zhang." Someone nearby saw him and waved at him.
Zhang Tiancheng took a closer look and saw that it was the director of the street office. He immediately went over to greet him.
"Let me introduce you. This is Director-General Cui from our Health Bureau …" The director of the street office introduced the person who was curled up in front of him.
Zhang Tiancheng found him familiar and immediately greeted him politely.
"Doctor Zhang is the person in charge of Upper Groove Hospital." The director of the street office said again and asked Zhang Tiancheng, "Do you know what's going on with Old Ling's consultation?"
"It's just a gimmick …" Zhang Tiancheng might have been filled with righteous indignation just now, but he dared not say anything now.
"Let's go in and take a look." The director frowned and walked away.
The director of the street office was immediately left behind. He glanced at Zhang Tiancheng helplessly and said, "Don't talk nonsense if you're not sure."
"The world's top medical expert? What kind of concept is that …" Zhang Tiancheng said indignantly, "You're lucky I didn't say that he's a liar."
As he spoke, Zhang Tiancheng looked at the director of the street office suspiciously and said, "You're not trying to mislead me, are you?"
The director of the street office instantly panicked for 0.125 seconds. He then shook his head and said, "The Health Bureau's thoughts have nothing to do with me. You should also stop talking."
"You can't just say that every American is the world's top medical expert, right?" Zhang Tiancheng wanted to repeat the conversation with the young nurse.
"Let's go in and see." The director of the street office did not comment. He walked in front of Zhang Tiancheng and said in a low voice, "It's the end of the year. The Health Bureau also needs to write a work report."
Zhang Tiancheng curled his lips. When he saw that the director of the Health Bureau had already hooked up with a few foreigners, he was even more unhappy.
At this time, the interpreter began to relay the director's words and asked, "Which hospital are the two of you currently working in?"
Zhang Tiancheng pricked up his ears to listen and thought, It would be interesting if these two were studying in China.
The two of them looked a little old, but Westerners all looked old.
"Cleveland Heart Center," Felix replied with a blank expression. He had the temperament of a big shot.
"Cleveland Heart Center," the director of the Health Bureau repeated. He felt that it was a little low since there was no mention of New York or DC. So, he looked at the deputy director beside him and asked, "Are you familiar with this hospital?"
He himself was not a professional, but his deputy was a doctor. What he meant was that he wanted his deputy to correct the situation.
The deputy was a little stunned for a moment. He confirmed again in a low voice, "What exactly is your job at Cleveland Heart Center?"
"I perform cardiac surgery." Felix was a little impatient.
At this time, a pharmaceutical sales representative from Yunli Medical Company came forward and quietly handed over a stack of printed papers. The contents of the papers were the introductions of Felix and Karen.
Zhang Tiancheng looked at it from afar. He could vaguely see Chinese words like "attending physician" and "Harvard Medical School".
A few officials from the Health Bureau were also trembling when they saw it.
