“Senior brother, sorry to trouble you this time round.” Wei Jiayou spoke into his phone sincerely.

“Sure, no problem. We can’t be defeated by a local hospital, right? If we are not any better in terms of shifting instruments than the local hospital, it’s a disgrace to all of us.” The voice of his senior brother could be heard clearly from the phone, and he sounded prideful as well.

Wei Jiayou smiled and said politely, “Senior brother, you’re truly very attentive.”

This time, if not for the help from his senior brother, the instrument he requested would only arrive after one to two weeks. By that time, Ling Ran could have performed countless hepatectomies.

According to Wei Jiayou’s observation over the past few days, he was really worried that Ling Ran would clear off all the patients in Baizhangxiang.

Those diseases that required hepatectomy were usually developed over months and years. Rural places like Bazhaixiang had a low floating population, and if Ling Ran truly treated all the patients, it would be useless for Wei Jiayou to get the instruments, as the town had no more sick patients for him, no matter how good he was.

However, Wei Jiayou took legal channels for his instruments to arrive. If his senior had not helped him, it would be very difficult for him to speed up the transportation of instruments to him.

His senior was excited as well. He chuckled and said, “It’s mainly because they’re respecting our master. I heard that you want to use it. Doctor Wei, we’re counting on you for the glory.”

“Of course. Rest assured.” Wei Jiayou replied, and his confidence level was very high.

“However…” His senior brother changed the topic of conversation and reminded him, “While you can dabble in hepatobiliary surgery, your main focus should be on cardiovascular surgery. Cardiovascular surgeries are the real cream of the crop, understand?”

“I understand that,” Wei Jiayou uttered some words to placate his senior brother before he ended the call. His mindset was already focused on the new instruments.

With the complete set of laparoscopy instruments, he can start performing hepatectomy. For a young man like Wei Jiayou, he was not interested in using his power to suppress others, instead, he was more excited to use his skills and talents to show off and suppress others.

Wei Jiayou put down his phone and hummed while showering. After changing into a set of new clothes, he put on Hermes Eau de Gentiane Blanche, and he released the scent of herbs used to treat patients.

The walking ginseng baby walked around Bazhaixiang.

The people’s nickname for him and mocking words about him in private would not affect Wei Jiayou.

He walked around leisurely at Bazhaixiang as though he was roaming around his new territory.

A patient was enveloped in a floral-patterned bed sheet when he passed by Wei Jiayou. A row of liquid hung above his gurney.

Wei Jiayou’s gaze swept through the transfusion bags, and he noticed a few familiar drug names. He immediately stopped and asked the accompanying doctor at the side, “Is he a hepatectomy patient?”

“Yes.” The accompanying doctor was Ren Qi, the surgeon from Qiu Province who went to Yun Hua Hospital for in-service training. His chubby appearance made him look friendly, and while he replied in a most amicable tone.

Wei Jiayou misunderstood and kept asking, “How’s the condition of the patient?”

As a senior attending physician from a county hospital, Ren Qi was familiar with the operation mode of Bazhaixiang branch hospital and was able to adapt to it. He also knew how to handle the outdated instruments in the hospital branch. In fact, he was familiar with it. Without even his knowledge, he grabbed quite a lot of chances to perform surgeries. For young people like Wei Jiayou, Ren Qi would not even give him any chance to seize the surgery from him. However, he still spoke politely, “I’m not the doctor in charge, so I don’t know his situation too well.”

“Okay…” Wei Jiayou could do nothing about it, since Ren Qi did not know what happened. He could not just interrogate him, after all.

“Doctor Wei, if there is nothing else, we’ll enter the operating theater first,” Ren Qi said politely, and the gurney was pushed in.

Wei Jiayou nodded and saw Ren Qi moving forward. He asked, “Can you go to the operating table today?”

This topic of conversation made Ren Qi grin. He smiled and said, “I’m the first assistant for today.”

“Oh,” Wei Jiayou replied and said, “While you are holding the lens, you need to lift it slightly higher…”

Ren Qi changed his expression and listened carefully.

Even though he was wary of Wei Jiayou, he could not dismiss his skill.

At that moment, he would place more attention on Wei Jiayou if it meant that he could pick up something new.

Wei Jiayou casually gave some remarks for a minute before he said, “Why are you the assistant today?”

“Old Lu and the others are exhausted.” Ren Qi smiled sincerely. If they were not exhausted, he would not have the chance to perform surgeries. Ren Qi was thankful for his years of experience in the county hospital. It was precisely because he had stayed for a long time at the county hospital that he sent to the helicopter by Zuo Cidian, who shared similar experiences with him. It was also because there were few doctors who came along that he could quickly have the chance to perform surgery…

“So, Ling Ran performed a lot of surgeries over the past few days?” Wei Jiayou’s words put a stop to Ren Qi’s pride.

Ren Qi felt his heart freeze, and he immediately said, “It’s time. I need to go for surgery.”

As he spoke, Ren Qi immediately entered the Operating Area. He did not know why Wei Jiayou wanted to know with the questions he asked, but he knew that he cannot be the one who leaked the secret.

Wei Jiayou frowned and looked at Ren Qi’s back before he fell into an inexplicable state of gloominess.

What should he do if the livers of the hepatectomy patients were all removed by Ling Ran?

Honestly speaking, for Wei Jiayou, who was always based at Beijing Hospital, he would never have to think of this question. In Beijing, there were too many patients, and regardless of which hospital or doctor working there, they would either die by overworking, die of fatigue, or just die suddenly.

Wei Jiayou had never thought that he would be worrying about this question.

Wei Jiayou frowned and thought about this hard, and he finally got a solution.

……

“Free treatment? Are you really giving free treatment for everything?” The person in charge of Bazhaixiang Health Department looked at the plan Wei Jiayou brought out and instantly perked up. “The costs the patients will have to bear by themselves once their medical insurance covers their treatment will be paid by you, and they can even claim from you for the medicine they have to buy for themselves?”

“Yes. We have special funding for this.” When Wei Jiayou said this, he was actually a little reluctant. He was using the funding he had for his specific purposes. Although he had quite a lot of funds for specific purposes because of his master, the cost a patient will have to pay for hepatectomy surgery was still quite high.

“Thank you, Doctor Wei. Give my thanks to your hospital as well…” The person in charge thanked Wei Jiayou sincerely, because what he received was something most practical.

Wei Jiayou nodded silently and said, “There is a quota for this. Please explain it to the patients as well.”

“Of course,” the person in charge replied firmly.

Wei Jiayou was relieved when he returned to Bazhaixiang hospital branch. In this case, even if Bazhaixiang did not have much of a floating population, the local patients would still not all be taken by Ling Ran.

Wei Jiayou laid on the reclining chair and sprayed some Eau de Gentiane Blanche into the air before he smiled and let the mist from the perfume envelope him.

At this moment, cheers were heard from the ground floor.

“It’s cleared!”

“It’s cleared!”

Those cheers soon became uniform.

Wei Jiayou slowly got up, opened the window, and looked down.

At this moment, a van slowly drove over. Someone carried a megaphone and shouted, “The road outside Bazhaixiang is repaired. Everyone, please be patient and give priority to the disaster relief personnel and disaster relief resources. We will give priority to patients and the army to pass through first…”

The person with the megaphone repeated his words twice and drove off the street.

Wei Jiayou slowly sat back on the chair, and he suddenly felt as if he just suffered an extremely huge loss to the zenith degree…
