"This piece of coal was dug out by me in Inner Mongolia. The textbooks you read when you were young said that China is a big country with coal, right? In the past, our main source of coal was Shanxi, but now, Inner Mongolia is also our big coal-producing province. Moreover, the coal is shallow, and the reserves are high. There are also a lot of gas fields. It is already our big energy province. "
"I didn't dig this piece. My teacher gave it to me. The ore from Daye Iron Mine was discovered by the British miner Guston. It is considered the first batch of iron mines in China that are suitable for mechanical mining. It's funny that China's iron shortage is a favorable catalyst for the development of China's geology. When Zhang Jian proposed the Cotton-Iron Doctrine, he probably did not expect that one day, China's steel production would become the largest in China, and China's textile production would be so large that the whole world would not be able to use it. "
"This is a piece of metamorphic rock. It's not valuable, and there's nothing inside. Hehe, I was in charge of the exploration. At that time, I thought it was a cobalt mine, but there was nothing. Later, my senior brother supported me, and in the end, he sent a team of people. Finally, we found it, and it filled the gap. "
Everyone followed Academician Du step by step and listened to him introduce the collection.
Except for a few valuable gems, most of the collection was relatively ordinary, but it might be more meaningful to Academician Du.
Zuo Cidian gradually walked out of the dark cloud of radiation. As he listened, he felt very touched. Then, he heard the sound "cobalt" again.
Zuo Cidian was now very sensitive to this tone. At that moment, if a pigeon chirped outside the window, Zuo Cidian would jump.
The word "cobalt mine" made Zuo Cidian's head swell, and he wanted to run out now.
"This Academician Du is really sick." Zuo Cidian could not help but whisper into Ling Ran's ear, "There might be something else with radiation in his warehouse …"
Ling Ran glanced at Zuo Cidian and said, "We are doctors, and we diagnosed Academician Du's condition."
Zuo Cidian was speechless. "I'm not talking about this … Ah, forget it. Why should I say anything to you?"
When Ling Ran saw that he was fine, he would not ask any more questions. He did not care at all.
Tian Qi did not even listen to what Zuo Cidian said. She was now strolling with Ling Ran in a dimly lit place with spotlights. The place was empty and quiet, and there were beautiful gemstones around them. She could not be happier. Whatever the people beside her said, she just ignored them.
Academician Du's chubby eldest grandson, on the other hand, was not very satisfied when he heard what Zuo Cidian said. He turned his head around twice.
For the third time, when the plump grandson looked over, he could not help but whisper to Zuo Cidian, "Doctor Zuo, this is my grandfather's last wish. Can you show some respect to the elderly?"
Zuo Cidian arched an eyebrow. "What do you mean by last wish? Your grandfather is going to the operating table tomorrow, not the execution ground."
"Please be more polite with your words." Fatty Sun was already on the verge of exploding.
If it had been someone of the same age, they would've just said, "How am I being impolite?" and they would've started a huge argument.
Zuo Cidian was not here to be an idiot. He instantly went through the conversation in his mind and cut out the part in the middle. He said directly, "Your grandfather's cancer can still be cured, and living for three to seven years will be a piece of cake for him. He might even live for ten years. Aren't you taking advantage of me by telling me your last wish now?"
The plump grandson was speechless. He was not willing to say that his grandfather could not live for so long, but if he admitted it, he would be underestimating the power of cancer. Many people around him did not survive cancer, let alone the power of liver cancer. His grandfather had also visited many hospitals before this. It could be said that he had no choice but to go to Beijing University Sixth Hospital for treatment. If it were not for Academician Zhu's guarantee, the Du family would not even consider it.
"You see, doctors are different from doctors, and patients are also different from each other." Zuo Cidian took a step closer to the plump grandson and said, "Academician Du has primary liver cancer. The cancer itself is not that serious, but the serious thing is that his body is still relatively weak. Other people do not dare to operate on him because they are afraid that something will happen. Doctor Ling is an expert in this area. After operating on the academician tomorrow, the situation will be clear, and the possibility of him getting better is quite high. Tell me, why are you worrying blindly? "
The plump grandson was stunned and said in a low voice, "My grandfather said that he wanted to take a last look at his collection … and he even invited you over …"
Zuo Cidian was unforgiving now that he had the upper hand. "That's because your grandfather is stubborn. I say, it's impossible for a person to not die, but with your grandfather's age, after seven or eight years, or even four or five years, he can consider this matter, right? If every patient is like Academician Du and wants the chief surgeon to take a look at their collection, we won't have to do anything else in a day. We can operate on fifteen patients a month, and we don't even have a day off … "
The plump grandson's lips trembled. "I … I'm sorry …"
"That's right. We're all intellectuals, and we can talk things out. Why were you so fierce just now?"
The plump grandson was speechless. (̄)
…..
Academician Du excitedly finished looking at his collection, stretched, and said, "You don't say, I haven't played with it for a while … Hmm, Doctor Ling, how do you feel?"
"I don't understand." Ling Ran did not hate stones. After all, the material was more stable.
"True, young people like you might not feel anything for these stones that have not been polished." Academician Du nodded, and he looked as if he understood it very well.
Zuo Cidian smiled and watched him perform. 'You only figured it out now?'
"I'll bring you guys to pick up leftovers." Academician Du clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. He said, "This is one of the best gemstone exchange centers in the country. Actually, not only gemstones, but all these minerals, as long as there are people who collect them and are interested in them, we sell them here."
Ling Ran looked at Academician Du and asked, "If we don't go, can we go back to the hospital?"
"Ah, Doctor Ling, you don't have to be so polite with me. Later, you guys can choose whatever you want, and I'll check for you. If you pick up leftovers, you'll get a month's salary." Academician Du held Ling Ran's hand enthusiastically.
Zuo Cidian raised his head and looked at the huge warehouse. He asked his chubby grandson beside him, "So, your grandfather's fortune was obtained by picking up leftovers?"
The chubby grandson shook his head slightly, and his tone became deeper. He said, "Picking up leftovers from the market can't compare to picking up leftovers from the market."
Zuo Cidian could not help but be stunned.
Mutton Alley was filled with small shops that were only the size of sheep pens.
The workers of the shop were like sheep waiting for food. Usually, they would walk around in the room. When they saw the customers, they would rush over like a swarm of bees and bleat as if they had seen grass to eat.
Ling Ran did not bother to listen to what they were shouting.
Tian Qi did not have time to listen.
However, the sheep in the pen widened their eyes and observed the two of them.
The man was so handsome, and the woman was so beautiful. Also, the woman was wearing a Richard Miller watch on her wrist … No wonder she brought a bodyguard. Otherwise, if they snatched the watch, ordinary people would not have to worry about food and necessities.
"Boss, pick something good for Doctor Ling. What new goods do you have recently?" Academician Du did not care about the type of stone. As long as it was leather, he could pick it.
He was a genuine expert in geology in the country, and he was someone who had been playing with stones all his life. Be it Hetian jade, Tianhuang jade, or jadeite, he had seen countless mines. Usually, when he went to other places for meetings, he was dragged by others to visit, and he saw rare scenes that ordinary people could not see even once in many years. When he came to a small jewelry shop, he liked to enjoy the joy of picking up leftovers.
"Bring more cheap leather over, and we'll pick whatever we want. How much is this … "Academician Du randomly picked up an ugly stone and asked for the price. His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's.
He wanted to pick a good stone today and give it to his chief surgeon.
Academician Du comforted himself. 'This is not a red packet. This is just a form of respect for the chief surgeon who will perform the surgery tomorrow. Also, it's the money I pay for my life.'
