"The local scalpers are actually quite good. Some people even purposely bought our Bazhaixiang cattle." As the host, Xiang Xueming actively greeted everyone.
His colleague was a little timid. Although he was older, his hands only trembled when he held the wine glass, and he did not have any more advanced skills.
Ling Ran did not drink. He just smiled, and the middle-aged and elderly local doctor immediately understood and returned a smile.
"Doctor Ling, have a piece of beef brisket." Tian Qi passionately picked up a piece of beef for Ling Ran with serving chopsticks, and her actions were natural.
The Tian family members who stood on both sides looked at Miss Tian Qi's actions in surprise. A few of them even stepped forward and were ready to stop her, but they held back.
"Okay, you try it too." Ling Ran smiled and answered. He then put the whole piece of beef into his mouth and chewed.
Tian Qi narrowed her eyes and picked up a piece of beef that was half fat and half lean. She blocked it with her hand before putting it into her mouth.
"Potatoes?" Tian Qi picked up another piece for Ling Ran.
Ling Ran hummed in acknowledgment, but he picked up his spoon and asked, "Do you want meat soup with rice?"
"Okay." Tian Qi agreed and touched her belly with her hand. She said in distress, "Just a little, I'm afraid that I'll get fat."
Ling Ran glanced at her and said, "You have a good body proportion, and you have plenty of muscle. It's okay to eat a little more …"
Tian Qi did not even listen to the latter part. She only heard Ling Ran's first sentence, and she was happy.
Cai Qiong was deliberately placed at another table. He glanced at Ling Ran and Tian Qi a few times before he buried his head in his food and stopped looking around.
Zuo Cidian was sitting at the table and greeting the crowd. He was a little puzzled, but he did not dare to ask, in case Cai Qiong said something strange.
The atmosphere at the main table was good. Ling Ran did not like to talk, and the two department directors from the provincial hospital knew each other. There was also a pharmaceutical sales representative who drank with them and knew how to talk, and the food tasted good. Soon, the atmosphere was good.
Of course, it was also because the two department directors from the provincial hospital had heard less flattery recently. They were harassed by Cai Qiong all day long, and even a pharmaceutical sales representative who did not know how to talk could do well here.
The guests and the host enjoyed the meal. At the end of the meal, the two department directors from the provincial hospital were still a little unsatisfied, and they warmly invited, "The KTV in town seems to have reopened. Why don't we go and sing a few songs? Doctor Ling, do you like singing? "
Ling Ran looked at the man in surprise. He shook his head slightly and said, "I have surgery in the afternoon."
"Ah, there's another surgery in the afternoon?" Associate Chief Physician Deng asked even though he already knew the answer. While he was drunk, he chuckled and said, "Strike a proper balance between work and rest. If it's not a major surgery, just let your subordinates handle it."
Ling Ran smiled without saying a word.
"Doctor Ling has hepatectomy in the afternoon," Lu Wenbin replied.
Associate Chief Physician Deng immediately furrowed his eyebrows. "Hepatectomy? This afternoon? "
"Yes." Lu Wenbin answered quickly, "The residents of Bazhaixiang rarely come here for treatment, but there are actually quite a number of patients with hepatolithiasis. The patients who received hepatectomy before this have all been discharged. Now, they know that we can perform hepatectomy, and the reimbursement rate is high. So, many people are coming over for hepatectomy. "
Associate Chief Physician Deng and Chief Physician Li were speechless. Why did they rush to the Bazhaixiang hospital branch? It was because there were patients who needed hepatectomy, but they could not do it.
Although it was mainly because of the equipment and other reasons, at the end of the day, they were still not confident enough.
Otherwise, if the two of them dared to say that they could perform hepatectomy as long as they had the equipment, they could just save the trouble of transporting the patient by helicopter. Even though Ling Ran had the help of Yunli Medical Company to transport the equipment, which was very fast, and it was a full set of new equipment, he also obtained Department Director Huo's approval.
Associate Chief Physician Deng, Chief Physician Li, and the experts from the provincial General Surgery Department who still stayed in the township hospital did not dare to guarantee that they could perform a complicated surgery like hepatectomy. As a result, they had to go through a series of troubles such as obtaining the patient's consent. They tried to send the patient to the Bazhaixiang hospital branch, and then to the provincial hospital …
If they had a choice, they would definitely rather do it themselves … Of course, they would not. The hospital would pay for the equipment, and they could even carry out the second batch of surgeries, just like Ling Ran …
"How many hepatectomies have you performed?" Associate Chief Physician Deng pretended to be concerned, but he was actually a little jealous.
When Lu Wenbin saw that the doctors from the provincial hospital were "not ashamed to ask", he immediately said proudly, "So far, we have performed five cases. From today onwards, Doctor Ling plans to perform two cases every day."
"Hiss …"
"Amazing." Chief Physician Li was slightly older, and now that he had found a public health project to work on, he was still jealous. Public health projects were very troublesome and complicated. They had just started, and there were already idiotic subordinates who were so troublesome … In comparison, was a news headline like "Our hospital completed six difficult surgeries during the medical activity to support the Bazhaixiang hospital branch" not a better one?
The two chief physicians of the General Surgery Department who were drunk suddenly did not have the mood to go karaoke anymore. This feeling was like two classmates inviting a third classmate to have fun, but they suddenly realized that the third classmate had done a lot more exercises and mock exams … Chief Physician Li recovered the fastest.
He picked up his wine glass and finished the white wine in one gulp. He grinned and said, "That's why I say that people are not stupid. The people in Bazhaixiang hospital branch are very smart. Asking Doctor Ling to perform the surgery is equivalent to finding the best hepatectomy doctor in the province. Also, they don't have to spend much money. The Bazhaixiang hospital branch reimburses 80% of the surgery fees for the locals, right?"
"Most of them can get 80% of the surgery fees, but they still have to pay for some of the drugs themselves," Xiang Xueming answered.
Lu Wenbin said, "It's a special period now. Many of the drugs are free of charge, so the total cost is even higher."
"Doctor Ling is a benevolent doctor." Associate Chief Physician Deng complimented Ling Ran as if it was free of charge. He then changed the topic and said, "Doctor Ling, if you're too busy, I can help you. Coincidentally, I still need to stay in Bazhaixiang for two days, and I don't have anything urgent to do …"
"The main bottleneck now is the operating theater. We actually don't lack manpower." As Zuo Cidian listened to the conversation on this side, he moved over. At this moment, he interrupted and appeared beside Ling Ran. He chuckled and said, "Associate Chief Physician Deng, don't fight with us young doctors. Everyone has come to Bazhaixiang, and if they can't get a surgery slot, it'll be too pitiful."
Associate Chief Physician Deng looked at Zuo Cidian's face, which was full of frustrations. He then raised his head and pretended to smile. "Alright, alright, it's all yours …"
He was an associate chief physician of the provincial hospital, and he really felt embarrassed to fight for food with a group of resident doctors and attending physicians, even though the food was very delicious.
"If you're too busy, you can look for me again," Associate Chief Physician Deng said.
Zuo Cidian and Lu Wenbin smiled at the same time.
After the meal.
Everyone tacitly stopped singing and watched Ling Ran go to the operating theater. Associate Chief Physician Deng and Chief Physician Li followed him while they were still drunk.
Both of them wanted to know how a hepatectomy would turn out in such an environment.
