Chapter 795: Whip

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Insert the needle, tighten the suture, and push the needle out again…

“It’s done.” After Ling Ran tied the knot and cut the thread, naturally, someone came up and bandaged Boss Shao.

At the same time, Zuo Cidian and other doctors all applauded excitedly.

“I saw Doctor Ling doing debridement and suturing again.”

“It’s so rare. Doctor Ling did a great job.”

“I hope that one day I can do just one tenth of what Doctor Ling did today.”

The last sentence that Qu Xiaolian said attracted a lot of attention.

Ma Yanlin and Lu Wenbin exchanged a look. ‘Time makes it inevitable that in every profession, the young shall replace the old. The young people today are incredible. I remember that back in the days, we didn’t know how to make flattering remarks like that, and we wouldn’t even think of doing so. The youngsters these days are already so straightforward in their flattery even when they are at the age of housemen. If we were to say it to someone else, I’d think that some people may not believe it. They might even think that doctors all spew nonsense and make wild assumptions while looking into other people’s eyes.’

Yu Yuan also clapped a few times, raised her head a bit, and looked at Ma Yanlin before turning to Lu Wenbin. She was like a wild radio station stealing signals.

A few female customers also came to gather around Ling Ran. They comforted Boss Shao, “Are you Doctor Ling? Doctor Ling, your technique is really good, Boss Shao is so lucky. With such a good doctor around, there’s no need to be afraid even if we’re wounded. If we were outside ourselves, we wouldn’t even be able to find any bandages… ”

Boss Shao looked at his fingers. “The bandages were from my shop.”

“If it weren’t for Doctor Ling, it would be useless even if you have a bandage. If it’s not carefully disinfected, you may need to amputate it.”

Boss Shao looked at his fingers. “The disinfectant is from my store.”

The female customer said, “The threads for the stitches…”

Boss Shao said, “From my shop.”

The female customer said, “Gauze and tweezers …”

Boss Shao said, “From my shop.”

……

It was not until the waiter started serving the dishes that the customers reluctantly left Ling Ran’s table one after another.

Qu Xiaolian obediently helped set the table, and asked diligently, “Would you like to drink?”

“He doesn’t drink.” Zuo Cidian did not even have to ask Ling Ran and answered on his behalf, “Doctor Ling doesn’t like drinking, and in addition, he will go back to continue performing surgery very soon.”

Ling Ran waved his hand. “There will be no surgery at night. Everyone can go back and rest well.”

Qu Xiaolian smiled involuntarily.

Lu Wenbin glanced at Qu Xiaolian and laughed. “Doctor Ling said that he would not have surgery at night, but that does not mean that he wouldn’t have surgery the next morning.”

Ma Yanlin also said, “Three hepatectomies are scheduled tomorrow morning. Doctor Ling, what time should we start tomorrow morning?”

“Tomorrow, we can start a bit later. Let’s start at 5:30.” Ling Ran made some calculations. The average hepatectomy was one and a half hours. But if he were a little lenient in his estimations and estimated that he required two hours for one surgery, he would need six hours for three operations. By starting at half past five and ending at half past eleven, there would still be half an hour of free time before lunch time.

Of course, this was a calculation method for major surgeries, because patients undergoing hepatectomy must be prepared in advance, and the Department of Anesthesiology must also cooperate with them. Therefore, if it were not an emergency operation, it was necessary to be lenient in their calculations so as to avoid insufficient time, improper operating theater arrangements, and other such problems.

In practice, if the operation was performed smoothly and quickly, Ling Ran can insert other minor operations in between, such as cholecystitis or appendicitis surgery, which can usually be completed in thirty minutes. If he only performed the essence of the surgery, which was the middle part of the surgery, he can easily finish an appendectomy in ten minutes, and it will still be at Specialist Level.

Lu Wenbin was still stealing glances at Qu Xiaolian, and when he saw that he was no longer smiling, he finally laughed. “This is Doctor Ling’s style, he likes to get up early.”

“Speaking of time. Everyone, please don’t be late tomorrow.” Zuo Cidian reminded the housemen and medical interns, and his eyes were especially on the medical interns.

Hospitals had fewer restrictions on medical interns than housemen. Furthermore, medical interns who had just left school had not been beaten by society and were not easily intimidated.

Zuo Cidian felt that he still had an obligation to raise his whip.

The medical interns and housemen who did not want to be beaten all nodded obediently and promised to not be late.

Zuo Cidian smiled, raised his glass, and said, “I’ll substitute tea with wine, and I propose that everyone have a drink together so that we are able to gather in the same department and be under Doctor Ling’s flag…”

As he made some small talk, he completed the necessary steps on the table, and he no longer pushed Ling Ran to speak or do anything else, which made Ling Ran and everyone feel quite comfortable.

No matter how strong the rules in heaven were, Doctor Ling’s rules were naturally the most powerful in Doctor Ling’s territory.

A plate of lamb chops and several barrels of tripe were brought to the table, and everyone became relaxed.

A medical intern whispered at this time, “Doctor Zuo, you just mentioned something about not being late, but the usual working time in a hospital is 8 o’clock…”

“Yes.” Zuo Cidian smiled.

“We don’t have to be there at half past four, right?” The medical intern showed a smile. “I thought it was compulsory for everyone…”

“You can come at that time, too.” Zuo Cidian’s tone remained unchanged.

The medical intern froze.

When he wanted to ask, Zuo Cidian turned his head around, waved his hand, and shouted, “Waiter, I would like to order a few more dishes.”

The intern looked worriedly at his senior doctor, Lu Wenbin, whom he was more familiar with, and whispered, “Doctor Lu, exactly what time should I arrive?”

“You can come anytime you want to.” Lu Wenbin gave an accurate answer.

The medical interns and housemen looked at each other with a seemingly understanding look and did not speak again.

Lu Wenbin and Zuo Cidian also looked at each other and did not speak. The time to arrive at the hospital in the morning was the entry barrier for Ling Ran’s treatment group. In the hospital, especially in the Department of Surgery’s reception room, the habits of the treatment group’s leader was the most significant rule. Young doctors can only follow and adapt to those habits. Some surgeons liked to perform surgeries in the morning, some surgeons liked to perform surgery at night, some abnormal and mad doctors liked to perform in the afternoon, that was not forgetting about the surgeons who liked to perform surgeries from morning to night.

For low-level junior doctors, the ones who can cooperate should cooperate with the senior doctors, and they can be considered to be fighting for an opportunity. If they cannot cooperate, there would not be any regrets either. Most medical interns cannot stay in top grade hospitals like Yun Hua Hospital. They just continuously recruited medical interns to do hard labor. There were relatively more opportunities for housemen, but if they were not able to get in through an examination or get authorized, the chance of staying in Yun Hua Hospital was not great, and the chance of staying in a strong department was even smaller.

At present, Qu Xiaolian wanted to stay in Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center the most. As for the remaining two housemen and the medical interns, it was very difficult for them to stay in Yun Hua Hospital. Hence, no one, including Zuo Cidian, would forcefully request them to come to the hospital at dawn.

“Hello, do you want to order more food?” The waiter bashfully walked over while holding the menu.

Ma Yanlin, who had just returned from Brazil, smiled when he saw the waiter’s appearance, and asked, “Do you have hemorrhoids?”

The waiter frowned. “Please order from the menu.”
