“Doctor Ma!”

“Doctor Ma Yanlin.”

“Doctor, say something.”

As the weather became sunny, more reporters rushed into Cuba Town. There were the mainstream media with political backgrounds, mainstream and non-mainstream media with investor backgrounds, and also different local and foreign media. These people did not only bring business to the local catering and accommodation industries, but also surrounded various people, took photos, and interviewed different people. Among these people, the most popular person was Ma Yanlin.

“Why did all of them find me?” Ma Yanlin had another interview. He happily stepped out of the door, and he could not help but show off to Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan had just changed the dressing for a patient. She wiped her hands with alcohol-based hand sanitizer while she said, “Because Doctor Ling is not willing to get interviewed.”

“Hey, hey, this answer is too direct.” Ma Yanlin was not happy and said, “We’re foreigners in this foreign country, so can’t we just boast about each other a little? Can’t you just talk properly?”

Yu Yuan chuckled. “Now, you’re different after being the chief surgeon in surgery.”

Ma Yanlin quickly pulled a long face, “Doctor Yu, I’ve just performed a few surgeries…”

“How many?”

Ma Yanlin lowered his head. “Not many.”

Yu Yuan stared straight into Ma Yanlin’s eyes.

Ma Yanlin immediately raised his head and avoided Chief Resident Yu Yuan’s gaze.

Yu Yuan then chuckled. “Not bad. You can now proudly raise your head. As expected of a man who can complete hemorrhoid surgeries alone!”

Houseman Ma Yanlin almost wanted to cry, but he changed his mind. “I’ll get you some hemorrhoid surgeries. We are now quite famous in Cuba Town, so we can make an advertisement during the last three days to do some debridement or hemorrhoids…”

“We don’t have professional qualification in Brazil, and the flood is already gone.”

“Then, when we go back, I’ll throw aside my dignity and get a few from the General Surgery Department.”

“Hemorrhoid surgeries are slightly on the low-end on the list of hard surgeries…” Yu Yuan nodded, turned around, and left.

…..

“Even under extremely difficult conditions, Doctor Ling insisted on staying in the hospital, and he provided treatment for the patients in Brazil. This shows the spirit of internationalism, and it also lets us see the highly-skilled doctors from China and their excellent quality…”

The governor of Mato Grosso stood on the stage and read the script. He spoke in measured tones, and his voice was clear.

The reporters stood in front of him like they were watching the monkey king giving birth. They filmed him while they exchanged gazes with each other.

Tian Guozheng sat in the first row with his injured leg while he laughed like the gorilla at the next mountain. He looked at the governor calmly. He occasionally nodded lightly and even used his hands to set a beat.

He had glanced through the governor’s speech. Even though not many amendments needed to be done, Tian Guozheng still expressed his opinions. This point alone proved that his status in the local area was constantly increasing.

Tian Guozheng was very satisfied with this, and his expression when he looked at Ling Ran was also full of smiles.

Ling Ran sat by the side without any facial expression.

He did not like such meetings. He was dragged over by Tian Guozheng, and there was no longer any surgery that he could perform in the hospital. Even if he was not here, he could only play Kings of Glory via the internet. Naturally, the game was even more fun. Besides, Tian Guozheng had given him a Sincere Gratitude Basic Treasure Chest. Ling Ran did not think he was someone talented enough that he could give Ling Ran two Treasure Chests.

“Doctor Ling, do you really not want to say something on the stage? This is a rare opportunity,” Tian Guozheng whispered into Ling Ran’s ear.

Ling Ran shook his head.

“Alright, I can spread the news here back to China. You’re a doctor, so you don’t have to show up,” Tian Guozheng said some simple words, and loud clapping sounds were heard around him.

Tian Guozheng crossed his legs and stood up with the support of his crutch. He received a smile and a greeting from the governor. The greeting was something the governor would usually not give to others.

Ling Ran frowned. “Your knee should be able to withstand some force now.”

“It’s rare that I get to receive surgery, so I want to enjoy the benefits it brings.” Tian Guozheng chuckled. He walked with a limp to go on stage and start his speech.

During luncheon. the people from the state, the area, and the capital gathered together.

Tian Guozheng sat in a wheelchair happily like an eighty-year-old child. He held a cocktail in one hand, with another two glasses beside his wheelchair.

“Wheelchairs are so convenient,” Tian Guozheng said his opening words for the eighth time. Then, he chuckled and said, “It’s just slightly inconvenient when I need to get up the saddle from a wheelchair. Luckily I don’t have to stay on the farm these days.”

“Your ranch is still alright, right?” A man with nothing special about his face sent his regards.

“We still have the insurance company as a backup.” Tian Guozheng smiled faintly and said, “We didn’t suffer any losses in our cow herd, and Zebo Four, as well as the others, are also very healthy. I’m glad to see that the herd is healthy.”

“The price of beef has increased recently. Zheng’s Farm might be able to get a higher income.”

“Running a ranch is based on belief, passion, and idealization. If you want to earn money, investing in a newly emerging industry will earn more. ” Tian Guozheng never admitted that his ranch brought him profit. At that moment, he smiled and said, “If we talk about earning money, banking and insurance are the real profitable industries.”

“Banks are vampires!”

“Insurance companies are also vampires!”

“We have compensated you this time, right?”

“But my insurance fee has also increased.”

The local owners of the ranches and farms were very worked up. Compared to the city operators, the rural operators dealt more often with banks, and they were suppressed more by the banks, so when they started to scold the banks, they had no fear.

Tian Guozheng smiled as he listened. He was a shareholder in these banks and insurance companies, but during public occasions, Tian Guozheng always acted as an owner of a ranch, which was a politically correct move in Brazil.

“Oh yes, Ling Ran, I have prepared some gifts. When you leave, make sure to keep them properly.” Tian Guozheng turned around and whispered to Ling Ran.

“What gifts?” Ling Ran naturally looked over.

“Some cows and Chef Zhu. You are quite familiar with him, right? Let him accompany you. When you want to, you can let him make some Brazilian barbeque for you.” Tian Guozheng then pointed at his phone and said, “I’ll ask someone to email you about the exact details. At that time, the cows will be delivered to Yun Hua. I have asked the company in China to handle all quarantine and inspection procedures, so the cows will be sent directly to the ranch in Yun Hua to be stored there for the time being.”

“Ranch in Yun Hua?”

“Tian Qi should have a small ranch in Yun Hua, and it’s not very far from town,” Tian Guozheng answered, “That ranch is mainly for the temporary storage of herds. I’ve asked about it. There’s no issue from them.”

Ling Ran slowly nodded and said, “Just a few will be alright.”

“You don’t have to take care of them. Just take this as my freelance surgery fee.” Tian Guozheng took on all expenditures for his gift. Then, he said with a smile, “But if you can say something good about me later, I will be more grateful.”

“What good things?”

Tian Guozheng’s heart skipped a beat. He remembered the warning from his butler, so he immediately said, “You don’t have to say anything, just nod and smile.”

As he spoke, Tian Guozheng pulled Ling Ran and moved his big wheelchair dozens of feet away. He tugged at an old man who looked like a cowboy, smiled, and said, “Delano, remember the deal of the ranch that we spoke before?”

Delano cast a glance at Tian Guozheng. Then, he looked at Ling Ran, who was beside him and wore a faint smile. “Hi, Doctor Ling. Thank you for taking care of my niece.”

Ling Ran smiled faintly and nodded, just like how he faced other patients’ family members.

Tian Guozheng was very happy in his heart. He had always wanted to buy some ranches and farms. Brazil was currently the world’s top beef exporter, and with the current development in China, the speed in which consumers bought beef would definitely increase to a shocking level…

However, compared to the bankers and entrepreneurs in Rio de Janeiro, the local ranch owners and farmers in Brazil were extremely conservative. Sometimes, they preferred selling beef to other white men.

Tian Guozheng had been busy for a few years before he owned the current Zheng’s Farm, and he had been eyeing the land around him with greed.

When Tian Guozheng could not hold back his smile anymore, Delano turned around and said, “I have decided to sell my pasture in Cuba to your niece, Miss Tian Qi.”

Tian Guozheng could not help but be stunned.

“My niece said your niece was helping out in the hospital, and she also organized people to open up the road between the town and hospital. I’ve asked my workers, and they are more willing to work for Miss Tian Qi.” Delano nodded and lifted his glass to take a sip. Then, he nodded to Ling Ran before he turned around and left.
