The Enhanced Doctor-Chapter 613 is very concerned about the speech

"How did it go? Did you manage?" Shi Lei asked when Liu Banxia returned to the emergency center.

Liu Banxia nodded. "The process was a bit arduous, but I somehow managed to sweet-talk my way through. Now we’re just waiting for the school to make arrangements. Is there anything going on here?"

Shi Lei laughed and shook his head. "Nothing much here. We just received a call from Doctor Du. This afternoon, two doctors from their ENT Department will be coming over. They are in the process of completing the necessary procedures."

"That’s great news. It will make triaging easier for us in the future. We won’t have to overextend ourselves trying to fill roles we’re not qualified for anymore," Liu Banxia said happily.

When he first started studying medicine, he also underestimated the ENT Department. He thought that it was no big deal and that any general surgeon could handle their procedures.

But he didn’t dare to think this way anymore. Although the procedures might not seem major, they were genuinely critical. Professional work had to be left to professionals. You might know how to do it, but you might not be proficient.

"My God, Chao, what happened to you?"

At this moment, Liu Banxia saw Wang Chao enter from outside, carrying a sample box. The sight of him gave Liu Banxia a start.

"President Liu, I’m exhausted, so sleepy," Wang Chao said with a bitter smile.

"I’ve finally separated three qualified donor samples. I’ve just collected more. I don’t know how many fecal transplants we’ll need to do for it to be effective. We must be thoroughly prepared."

"So, have you decided which one to use?" Liu Banxia asked curiously.

Wang Chao shook his head. "Right now, I’m focusing on testing and separating samples. We should have the results by tomorrow. We’ll use whichever donor sample we have the most of."

"The patient has been waiting for so long. You’d better work some magic and create some kind of miracle. If the patient suddenly recovers, we’ll all be relieved."

"I wish I could work some magic too, turn you into a ’crap specialist,’ then you could handle everything," Liu Banxia said helplessly.

"After delivering the samples this afternoon, take a good rest. If you continue like this, well, the patient might hold up, but you won’t. When that happens, who’s going to do a fecal transplant for you?"

Wang Chao shot him a glare. This guy! When he shows concern, he just has to bring up doing a fecal transplant for me.

"He’s really exhausted. It seems like he’s sleeping less than four hours a day in total," Shi Lei said.

"Otherwise, why would we have given him this task? Basically, anyone who decides to stay and work in our emergency center has a streak of ruthlessness," Liu Banxia said.

"Teacher Liu, Teacher Liu, how did your talk with the school go? Have you set a date?" Xu Yino, who had just finished a consultation, came running over.

"Why are you so excited? The exact date hasn’t been set yet. It depends on the school’s arrangements. We’ll need to use the auditorium, and there are some procedures to go through," Liu Banxia said.

"Someone saw you with Chief Director Xu and tipped me off," Xu Yino said joyfully.

"Oh, and the patient I just consulted had rebound tenderness at McBurney’s point. They’ve been sent for an ultrasound and a CT scan. It looks like a small incision surgery will do. Who should we assign it to?"

"Silly girl, are you just going to give away such a prime opportunity for some ’negotiation’? Of course, it goes to the highest bidder!" Liu Banxia said seriously.

Xu Yino was startled, then she laughed beautifully. She turned and looked at the other interns as if a tiger had just spotted a lamb.

"Really, you’re actually encouraging this," Shi Lei said helplessly.

"Boss, are you interested in accompanying me to the medical school? I’m afraid I won’t be able to command the room by myself," Liu Banxia said.

Shi Lei shook his head like a rattle drum. "I don’t want to get involved in this messy business. If I have the time, I’d rather rest, okay?"

"I’ll report you later for not taking the teaching and training work seriously, and for calling it ’all sorts of messy things’," Liu Banxia said.

"You think you can scare me? At this stage, my main task is still to consolidate my professional skills," Shi Lei was not afraid in the slightest.

This was also a man with few worldly desires. Otherwise, after being at the emergency center for so long, he would have somehow managed to become a deputy director. After all, back then he had a unique advantage, while Liu Banxia was still just small fry.

But he hadn’t. Instead, he was content to continue as an attending physician. It all depended on whether he could pass the associate chief physician assessment this year. If he could, the hospital wouldn’t create any obstacles in his contract.

"Ah... I’m a bit worried now. Today’s students aren’t like the ones from before. Back then, they were easy to fool, but now, not so much," Liu Banxia said.

"Isn’t it just a matter of introducing the actual situation of our emergency center and the Second Affiliated Hospital?" Shi Lei asked.

Liu Banxia shook his head. "There’s absolutely no need for an introduction. These days, any student with even a little bit of initiative has definitely already researched everything thoroughly. They probably know more than we do."

"This is the information age. There’s no need to physically visit like in the old days. Xu Yino and her group have probably already sent out countless messages and photos."

"The main issue is that I haven’t figured out the right angle of approach yet. It’s definitely different from talking to high school seniors. Even high school seniors are hard to fool these days, let alone this bunch; they’re even harder to trick."

"Haha, then that has even less to do with me. You can worry about it yourself," Shi Lei said with a grin.

He was in a rather good mood. This matter could be a source of worry, or it could not be, depending on one’s perspective.

If it were just a formality, there would be nothing to worry about. He would just go there, say a few words, and be done. But to truly attract these medical students to take on the challenge of an internship here, it would indeed require some careful thought.

After all, the emergency center had been established for a relatively short time, and the Second Affiliated Hospital wasn’t the only internship base in Binhai City.

Liu Banxia felt helpless, knowing he had to figure this out on his own.

"Teacher Liu, after Huang Bo’s persistent efforts to raise the bid, if it really can be done, it’s his," Xu Yino ran back and declared.

"What’s the price?" Liu Banxia asked curiously.

"Three pig trotters. We’ll give you one when the time comes," Xu Yino announced generously.

"Deal," Liu Banxia responded crisply.

"Looks like I have to work hard to find patients with acute abdominal pain. A pig’s trotter a day isn’t just a dream," Xu Yino said very happily.

"It seems I also have to find a way to perform the ’first kills’ for other types of surgeries. Two pig trotters a day isn’t just a dream either," Liu Banxia added, quite seriously.

Xu Yino was stupefied. What? The same rules for other surgeries? How many pig trotters would that take? And considering the Demon King’s personality, wouldn’t he make us contract for a whole year’s worth?

"Look how scared you are!" Liu Banxia laughed. "Would I really exploit you all like that? I was just teasing you."

"Teacher Liu, that’s totally something you would do," Xu Yino quipped before darting off.

This left Liu Banxia feeling rather helpless. Is this a revolt?

"President Liu, Feng Tao and I are here to report for duty," Du Fancheng said as they walked over.

"Welcome, welcome, a very warm welcome. How come it’s just the two of you? Didn’t you bring any interns?" Liu Banxia asked.

"They’re about to graduate, so they’ve all been kept back. For now, it’s just the two of us," Du Fancheng replied.

"That’s fine too. Anyway, new interns will arrive after a while. You can use the clinic room of External Medicine Department Three. Later, we’ll move the machines over for you and change the sign," Liu Banxia said.

"As for how you two arrange your days off, you can discuss it yourselves. We have a relatively high degree of freedom here, as long as someone is on duty."

"Alright, we’ll sort out the duty roster once we’re settled in," Du Fancheng said, nodding with a smile.

These two were fresh reinforcements for the emergency center. How could Liu Banxia let them set everything up by themselves? Since there wasn’t much going on at the moment, he called the interns over to help.

He was quite familiar with Du Fancheng, but only acquainted with Feng Tao, the other ENT doctor. However, that didn’t matter, as they would be working together from now on.

Besides, people who decided to come to the emergency center were generally not slackers.

"This is great. From now on, we’ll have a new stream of patients," Liu Banxia said once they were done setting up.

"However, for now, you two will have to bear a heavier load. It’ll get easier when another doctor joins. Wang Huan and Wei Yuan are also holding down the fort. Another doctor should be joining us in a while."

Du Fancheng nodded. "We’re prepared for that. Should we also go through another round of intensive emergency care training?"

"Haha, that can be arranged," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.

"But you can decide on the timing yourselves. We only need help from other departments during major accidents when there are many patients."

"Normally, with general surgery, cardiac surgery, and neurosurgery, we can manage. It’s just a precaution; I’m always worried about not having enough emergency doctors."

"You guys need to work hard too. Obstetrics and Gynecology hasn’t been here long, but they’ve already seen no fewer than fifty patients and performed seven surgeries."

Du Fancheng looked at him helplessly. "How can we compare with Obstetrics and Gynecology? Just try to triage as many patients to us as possible. But based on our experience, most of our patients will likely have rhinitis or tinnitus."

Liu Banxia nodded. "That’s about right. You two can start by familiarizing yourselves with the environment. Miao Rui, take these two teachers for a tour and help them get acquainted."

"Alright," Miao Rui responded.

After Du Fancheng and Feng Tao left, Zhou Li sidled over. "Feeling pretty pleased now, aren’t you?" she said. "Once the plastic surgery and urology departments also move in, our patient intake here will increase a lot more."

"How are things?" Liu Banxia asked. "The upcoming nursing work will be more demanding. Have you got everything sorted out?"

Zhou Li nodded. "More or less. Many of the senior nurses have been very supportive. The ones Obstetrics and Gynecology brought over are also fitting in well."

"There are indeed many things to worry about, and it gets frustrating at times," Zhou Li said.

"That’s normal. Anyway, new intern nurses will be coming, and they can help alleviate some of your pressure. If you need my support for anything, just tell me directly," Liu Banxia said.

"Don’t worry, I won’t hesitate to ask when I need to put you to work," Zhou Li replied with a laugh.
