Chapter 303: Wearing Out the Beautiful Assistant (1 Update)
"Everyone, I am Secretary Lei Gang, but I am not here today to inspect the hospital, but to take care of some business, so I won't chat with you all much."
As Secretary Lei Gang walked through the corridor, he greeted the patients and their families. Having a military background, he understood the importance of working with the masses and was a very down-to-earth secretary.
"Secretary Lei, are you also here to register to see Dr. Zhou Lang?"
A bolder and more curious patient asked this question.
"Everyone, Dr. Zhou is a good doctor. My wife and I are both former soldiers. She had a bullet in her body that had never been removed. Later, we met Dr. Zhou, and he successfully removed the bullet. My wife is here today for a follow-up check-up, so I will take my leave now."
Secretary Lei Gang nodded to the patients and their families in the corridor as he explained.
"Dr. Zhou Lang is an expert I put a lot of effort into inviting. He only sees patients here on weekends, so everyone who needs medical attention should hurry."
President Gong Han, who was accompanying Secretary Lei and Leng Xinyue, also said.
After speaking, Secretary Lei Gang and Leng Xinyue entered the "Difficult and Complicated Cases" expert clinic. As for President Gong Han, he did not go in and turned to leave. As a president, he had many things to attend to every day. Secretary Lei Gang did not have any bureaucratic airs and had told President Gong Han that he didn't need to wait there.
President Gong Han had dealt with Secretary Lei Gang before and knew his character, so he left.
"We misunderstood Dr. Zhou earlier. It seems he truly has superb Medical Skills."
Seeing that President Gong Han had personally accompanied Secretary Lei Gang and his wife to find Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang's image grew even taller in everyone's hearts.
This hospital was renowned in Feiyun City. Although there were quacks who got in through the back door, President Gong Han was an upright person. Everyone he valued was a person of high-level Medical Skills. They felt that it must have been President Gong Han who recommended Zhou Lang to remove the bullet for Secretary Lei's wife. Since President Gong Han specifically recommended Zhou Lang and no one else, Zhou Lang's Medical Skills must have received his recognition and praise, so he definitely deserved the title of miracle doctor.
Seeing Secretary Lei Gang and Leng Xinyue go to see Zhou Lang, the hearts of the patients in the corridor were in turmoil. If they had asked Zhou Lang for treatment earlier, it would have been a great opportunity, but now, they might not have that chance. Because true miracle doctors are quite arrogant, and he might not be willing to treat those who previously doubted his Medical Skills.
Just as everyone was feeling regretful, Secretary Lei Gang and Leng Xinyue had already sat down opposite Zhou Lang.
Nurse Wenwen certainly recognized Secretary Lei Gang, who often appeared on television. Seeing Secretary Lei Gang and his wife actually coming to find Zhou Lang for treatment, she was simply stunned.
She recalled the scene of Zhou Lang treating patients earlier and suddenly felt that Zhou Lang's Medical Skills were so magical. The president must have had a deep meaning in arranging for her to be Zhou Lang's assistant. Now she finally understood the president's good intentions and no longer had the thought of changing positions, because she was not content with being a small nurse; she also wanted to be a doctor.
"Secretary Lei, Mrs. Lei, let me pour you a glass of water."
Nurse Wenwen said nervously. It was her first time seeing such big figures at such close range.
"No need." Secretary Lei Gang said with a slight smile, and he didn't even ask Nurse Wenwen to close the door.
So Nurse Wenwen remained sitting beside Zhou Lang. The only thing she was confused about was why Zhou Lang had such a big ego that he required Secretary Lei Gang and his wife to come to the hospital in person. Any other doctor in Feiyun City would have made a house call to treat Secretary Lei. Zhou Lang was probably the first doctor to require Secretary Lei Gang to come to the hospital personally.
"Brother Lei, you are so busy, you didn't need to come; my sister-in-law coming would have been enough." Zhou Lang said to Secretary Lei Gang with a smile, "I'm really sorry to make you both come over for such a small matter."
"Mr. Zhou, today is your first day practicing medicine, so of course I have to come and show my support. If a famous doctor like you were buried, it would truly be a regrettable thing."
Secretary Lei Gang said. Previously, he dared to call Zhou Lang brother, but now he addressed Zhou Lang as Mr. Zhou. He already knew about Zhou Lang annihilating the Combat Team on the high seas. He had placed Zhou Lang at the same level as General Qin, because even General Qin had to be very polite to Zhou Lang.
Upon hearing the polite tone Secretary Lei Gang used with Zhou Lang, Nurse Wenwen was even more shocked. Listening to Secretary Lei Gang's tone, it seemed as if he felt that Zhou Lang's status was even higher than Secretary Lei Gang's.
"Practicing medicine is not easy. Of course, my husband and I must support Mr. Zhou's affairs. If it weren't for Mr. Zhou at that time, the remaining part of the bullet in my body would not have been removed."
Leng Xinyue also said.
"Those are all small matters. With you two coming today, my name as a part-time doctor is established." Zhou Lang smiled, "Starting soon, I shouldn't have to worry about not having patients come to see me."
"Then we will just sit here for a while and leave, so we won't take up too much of your time with patients." Secretary Lei Gang said. Today was Zhou Lang's first day practicing medicine, and he didn't want to disturb Zhou Lang too much here.
"Alright, then you go about your business. General Qin is in good health, but he misses you both very much. When you have time, you can go to the capital to visit him."
Zhou Lang said.
General Qin had many subordinates, most of whom had become pillars of the country. Many who remained in the military had become powerful generals holding heavy authority, and many who transferred to civilian posts had begun to govern regions. These subordinates had very deep feelings for the old general, of course. One must know that back then, they were all led by the old general out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Those in the military could still often see the old general, but those like Secretary Lei Gang who governed a region rarely saw General Qin, as they were busy with government affairs.
But when people get old, they become nostalgic. Zhou Lang stayed at General Qin's house in the capital for a period of time and knew that the old general still hoped that his former subordinates would visit him more often. After all, the old general was over ninety years old, and even if he was in good health, he probably wouldn't live many more years.
"Mr. Zhou, it is shameful to say, but my wife and I have long wanted to go to the capital to visit the old chief, but we could not get away. However, this coming winter, no matter how busy I am, we will go to see the old chief."
Secretary Lei Gang said with a look of shame.
Secretary Lei Gang chatted with Zhou Lang for a few more words and then got up to take his leave.
"Dr. Zhou, you are truly impressive. It seems that what you said earlier about me being busy to death in a moment will definitely not be false."
As soon as Secretary Lei Gang and his wife left, Nurse Wenwen said. The conversation between Zhou Lang and Secretary Lei Gang earlier made her feel that Zhou Lang was unfathomable. Because in China, everyone knew General Qin, and listening to the meaning in Zhou Lang's words, Zhou Lang seemed to be very familiar with General Qin. She also knew that Zhou Lang was probably not just Heaven-Defying in Medical Skills, but his background was also Heaven-Defying.
"You go out and tell the people outside that whoever wants to see a doctor can come in."
Zhou Lang smiled slightly. He did not show any Life Qi that those people previously thought his Medical Skills were fake and that he had arranged shills; after all, this was a normal mentality for common people.
So Nurse Wenwen went out happily.
Soon, the people waiting in the corridor immediately went to re-register to see Zhou Lang. They were not fools; even the Municipal Party Secretary brought his wife to Zhou Lang for a follow-up check-up. There was no longer any doubt about Zhou Lang's Medical Skills.
Zhou Lang asked Nurse Wenwen to call the numbers for patients. His speed of seeing patients was extremely fast; an average patient would be diagnosed in less than three minutes after entering.
From 9:30 AM to around 11:00 AM, in just an hour and a half, Zhou Lang had already seen thirty patients.
Nurse Wenwen was busy and happy, almost unable to keep up, but she was thinking that she would have a significant commission today, and she was delighted.
But some were happy while others were sad. The other expert clinics were originally overcrowded, but later, those who had registered all changed their registration to Zhou Lang's side. Those that were originally bustling with activity became deserted.
When those experts came out and looked, they realized that all the patients had gone to see Zhou Lang.
"This is simply outrageous! It's one thing for a young man to dare to sit in an expert clinic, but he actually stole all our patients. I must go and reason with him."
A middle-aged chief physician said very angrily and was about to barge into the room where Zhou Lang was seeing patients.
"Dr. Dragon, you had better not be so impulsive. Even if you go to find this Dr. Zhou, I'm afraid it won't lead to any results."
A kind patient stopped this middle-aged chief physician.
"What he is doing is really too much. Why can't I go and reason with him? Move aside."
Dr. Dragon said with an unhappy face. These experts, besides their basic salary, also relied on performance to get performance bonuses. If all the patients were stolen by Zhou Lang, what bonuses would they get? Therefore, the several experts sitting in today had strong opinions about Zhou Lang.
"Dr. Dragon, I am doing this for your own good. You don't know yet, do you? Just now, Secretary Lei Gang and his wife came to see Dr. Zhou. Dr. Zhou cured Mrs. Lei's illness, and it seems that their relationship is unusual. Such a person is not someone just anyone can afford to offend. The reason we seek medical treatment from Dr. Zhou is, first, because his Medical Skills are indeed good and have immediate effects on patients, and second, because the medicine he prescribes is very cheap. No matter how serious the illness, in his hands, it can be cured for less than one hundred yuan. Such a doctor is a doctor who truly thinks for the patients and will definitely be welcomed by us. Otherwise, why would we spend that extra money to re-register?"
Hearing this person say this, Dr. Dragon stopped talking, and the other doctors didn't dare to say anything either. They didn't know whether Zhou Lang's Medical Skills were high or not, but Zhou Lang's relationship with Secretary Lei Gang was very unusual. Even if such a person rode on their heads, they wouldn't dare to make a sound.
That day, Zhou Lang saw a total of two hundred patients and only prepared to leave when it was getting late.
But in the end, a special patient arrived.
This patient was none other than Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai.
"Dr. Fang, what is this?"
Nurse Wenwen asked nervously when she saw Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai walk in. She thought Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai was here to cause trouble for Zhou Lang because his patients had been stolen by Zhou Lang.
"Nurse Wenwen, you go out first; I need to talk to Dr. Zhou about something."
But Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai said in a kind tone, only his complexion was not good today, and he looked a bit pale, seeming to have no energy.
"Dr. Fang, I am already off duty now and am not seeing patients."
Before Nurse Wenwen could speak, Zhou Lang stood up and said to Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai. He knew exactly why Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai had come; he could tell from his complexion.
Nurse Wenwen was a smart girl. She knew there must be some grudges between Zhou Lang and Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai. After greeting Zhou Lang, she left. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs between Zhou Lang and Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai.
In the room, only Zhou Lang and Orthopedic Expert Fang Tai remained.
