Surgeons dressed as poor people in the Republic of China

The smile on Zhou Haoren's face was obviously a little stiff. He apologized to Ye Yibai, then readjusted his expression, and turned to this group of foreigners who seemed to be menacing.

"Mr. Hall, Mr. Cook, why are you here? And Dr. Brooke, Dr. Gailan..." Zhou Haoren turned his eyes to the two people behind Hall and Cook, his attitude softened obviously, and his tone changed. Also brought a trace of hesitation.

When Zhou Haoren called out the words "Dr. Brooke", Ye Yibai's eyes subconsciously fell on the 35-year-old tall man with a serious expression, and the man happened to look over at this time.

There was a gentle and friendly smile on the serious face of the man, Ye Yibai also smiled and nodded with Dr. Brooke.

On the other hand, the conversation between Zhou Haoren, Hall and others is still going on. Hall and Cook are very dissatisfied with the fact that Huaguo has let people out of Pingjin at this time. I'm scolding, it was this group of foreigners who refused to cut off the railway for the sake of freight and profits, and now it is this group of foreigners who stand on the moral high ground and criticize them for letting people out.

"Mr. Hall, Mr. Cook, many of your people take advantage of the monthly replenishment trains to go out. We also turn a blind eye and close one eye. Some things don't need to be said in the open. Let's go." Zhou Haoren's tone was gentle and friendly, but what he said was straight to the point, without any sign of showing weakness.

"We never asked for it, but you didn't stop it!" Mr. Hall was clearly dissatisfied with Zhou Haoren's answer, and his voice rose.

It is true that Hall and others did not take the initiative to ask the Chinese to release their compatriots.Because the Chinese people headed by Zhou Haoren seemed to be very friendly to them, and many times things were done without him asking.This incident made Hall complacent for a long time, but he didn't expect that it would become the subject of Zhou Haoren's talk at this time, making him speechless for a moment.

Pei Zebi, who had been listening carefully to the conversation of several people, raised his eyebrows. He thought he probably knew why Zhou Haoren was able to stand out at this time, defeating all opponents and gaining the right to speak in Pingjin City. The old fox in sheep's clothing, something he couldn't stop Just dragging the French and the British to start, selling well and at the same time taking the initiative when they pursue it, he really deserves to be a "good old man with all faces."

"Okay, Hall, don't forget the purpose of our coming here." Mr. Cook at the side stopped Mr. Hall from speaking again, and his eyes fell on Ye Yibai through Zhou Haoren.

He walked over to Ye Yibai under the surprised gazes of Zhou Haoren and others.

"Hello, Doctor Ye. I'm Satya Cook. I received a telegram from the Shanghai embassy years ago. Counselor Thomas and Counselor Feynman asked me to send you my greetings." Cook said to Ye very politely. Yibai greeted him with a sincere and friendly attitude.

Ye Yibai instantly understood the identity of the person who came, and he responded with a smile: "Mr. Thomas also mentioned you to me, the youngest consul in Britain. It's a pleasure to meet you."

The smile on Cook's face became even more real when he heard the words. The affirmation and recognition from his superiors made Cook, who has always been calm, couldn't help but show a little pride. He is the youngest consul in the UK. This has always been his most proud thing. After being in a foreign country for many years, few people mentioned this point, but Counselor Thomas never thought that he would always remember it. This made Cook feel a sense of intense joy and hope.

This made his attitude towards Ye Yibai even more enthusiastic and cordial, "You are absurd, compared to you, I am not worth mentioning."

The familiarity between Cook and Ye Yibai surprised Zhou Haoren and the others, but before they asked, another Mr. Hall couldn't help it, "Doctor Ye, hello, I'm Clement C. Hall, it's an honor to meet you, and Dean Duran also asked me to express his greetings to you."

Compared with Zhou Haoren, who has not been in power for a long time in Pingjin, the two consuls Hall and Cook are much more informed. They received a special notification telegram from the Shanghai embassy years ago, followed by another The personal letters of Thomas, Feynman, etc. and the various reports about Dr. Ye sent to their desks, and even two original copies of "The Lancet".

Although not everyone who can read English can understand The Lancet, even so, Cook, Hall and others understand what this journal means.This is a great honor in the hall of medicine, and respect for a great doctor is regardless of national boundaries and races.

And sulfa...

He Hall can't let Cook be more beautiful than before. If it is true as Dr. Gail said, then sulfonamide is a life-saving drug. Now it will take at least half a year for China to mass-produce sulfa and ship it to China. The distribution of Lihua's domestically produced sulfonamides is not up to the person in charge of the epidemic. Even for the sake of overseas Chinese, he has to establish a good relationship with Dr. Ye.

Ye Yibai had done his homework before coming here, and he understood that the situation in Pingjin City is complicated. Although Jinling belongs to the Jinling government, Jinling has limited restraint on the north from the south. If we want to curb the spread of the plague as quickly as possible, it is absolutely impossible without the cooperation of these foreigners. Therefore, Ye Yibai is also willing to establish a good relationship with them.

Both sides have good intentions, you come and go, this scene becomes extraordinarily happy.

Zhou Haoren and the others looked at the scene in front of them almost dumbfounded. When did these foreigners become so talkative?

Pingjin City is no better than Shanghai, Shanghai is the hinterland of Jinling, no matter how powerful the public concession and the French Concession are, most of the power is still in the hands of the Chinese.

However, north of Pingjin City is commonly known as the "peaceful area" of the three-way zone, and further north is the northeast occupied by the Japanese. From this geographical location alone, one can guess the current situation of Pingjin City. Weak countries have no diplomacy, and there are several consulates. The officials here have always been very aggressive towards Zhou Haoren and the others, but today, two consuls, Cook and Hall, were so polite to a doctor, Ye Yibai.

Maybe... this Doctor Ye can really give Pingjincheng a break?

"This is the latest bacteria detection and antigen detection equipment?!" Brook couldn't help screaming when he saw the English letters exposed on the boxes that Pei Zebi's men carefully moved down from the train.

Brooke's voice was too loud, causing everyone who was greeting each other to look at them subconsciously. But at this moment, Brooke, who was attracted by the equipment that was lifted down, could no longer maintain his steady and solemn image. The man carefully placed it in front of the box on the ground, and stretched out his hand to remove the soft cloth wrapped around the box.

The team members under Pei Zebi had long been told by Ye Yibai to take good care of these equipments. When they saw a tall and burly foreigner running over in a daze, they immediately took two steps forward and stopped him, "Stop!" .”

Brook was not willing to stop at this time, but the people under Pei Zebi didn't hear Pei Ye's opening and refused to give in, which made the always prudent doctor very angry.

Seeing this, Zhou Haoren was about to speak, but saw that Dr. Brook actually suppressed his anger, turned around and walked towards Ye Yibai.

"Junior Brother, did you bring this over? Is it Cliff's latest equipment? I wanted to bring it over at the beginning, but those people refused to sell it anyway. How did you get it?" Brooke spoke in a northern dialect that was not very fluent. It burst out like a machine gun, causing Zhou Haoren and the others to be stunned.

Ye Yibai also secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, although he was prepared in his heart, but such things as exchanging pleasantries are difficult for him after all, Brook's opening made Ye Yibai finally free from this embarrassing exchange of pleasantries come out.

"Yes, Dr. Hope from Keston and Dr. George from Rust sent a complete set of laboratory instruments for blood and urine routine and biochemical tests. Compared with the instruments currently on the market, this set of instruments can save a lot of money in the diagnosis of plague. The next half of the time." When it comes to professional matters, Ye Yibai is obviously much more at ease.

Brook took two quick steps and walked to the big boxes. No one stopped him this time. He looked at the tightly wrapped equipment, touched the neat English letters outside the boxes, and smiled happily. .

Dr. Gail also joined in very quickly. The three big doctors spoke to each other, switching freely between English, French, and Mandarin. They chatted to the point of excitement, completely forgetting about the other people beside the platform.

"Mr. Pei..." Meng Qingyong took two steps forward and said hesitantly.

Pei Zebi waved his hand, "I know what you want to say, it's good for him like this, those messy things are not suitable for him." Then, he took a step forward and offered his hand to Zhou Haoren, "Secretary-General Zhou, hello ..."
