The current trend of thought is to "learn from the foreigners and develop skills to control the foreigners". Whether they are high-ranking officials, wealthy businessmen, or ordinary people, they are full of curiosity and expectations for Western medicine.
Last year, Aunt Hao took the lead in this place, and the Maternity and Infant Western Hospital planned by the Medical Association was almost completed; now, the Medical Association is running the Department of Western Medicine.
This is a major event that benefits the country and the people.
Many people felt excited after hearing this, even though it obviously had nothing to do with them.
Under such emotional ups and downs, Yun Qiao shed tears. Although it seemed a bit artificial, it was understandable, so the man next to her kindly handed her a handkerchief without paying any extra attention.
Xi Lanting briefly talked about the medical department this time, and then stepped down.
He told the truth.
However, just like his life and death, no one believed his truth.
He stepped down from the stage, sat down for a while, leaned over and said he didn't feel very well, and was about to leave.
It is well known that the seventh master of the Xi family is in frail health. As a benefactor, as long as his money is in place, it does not matter whether he is there or not.
"Master Qi, have a good rest."
"Don't be too exhausted, our country's future medicine depends on Master Qi."
Xi Lanting also said a few polite words, saying that he relied on the princes and that he only had a few bad money. The compliment and self-deprecation were both in place, and he left the table.
Yun Qiao followed.
Hearing that Lu Yao was sharp-eyed, he hurriedly ran away too, leaving Li Hong alone in the Nanhua Hotel.
Li Hong didn't want to leave. There were many powerful people today that he couldn't usually come into contact with. Now that he had encountered it, the opportunity was so good, so he had to use it no matter what.
When Wen Luyao chased him out, Xi Lanting drove away in a car.
When Yun Qiao heard Wen Luyao calling from behind, she turned her head and glanced a few times, then asked Xi Lanting: "Don't you wait for her?"
"I'm almost bored to death by her, and you feel sorry for me too," Xi Lanting said.
Yun Qiao: "..."
The carriage was dim, the cool spring breeze slowly blew in through the cracks in the windows, and the chill spread like water.
Xi Lanting sat quietly, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Yun Qiao was also silent. She was moved in her heart, but she didn't know what to say.
After a long time, Xi Lanting seemed to have some strength, and then asked her: "Why were you crying just now?"
Yun Qiao's nose is still a little sore.
She didn't know why either.
Was she really moved, or was she suddenly struck by something? She couldn't tell. The emotion at that moment was so strong that it made her heart palpitate, and her tears were unconscious.
"I was moved by Uncle Qi." She said truthfully, "You spent a lot of money and connections, right?"
Xi Lanting did not deny it.
Xi Zun, who was driving the car, was afraid that his master would not show his merit and be humble in front of Yun Qiao, so he rushed to say: "Miss Yun Qiao, that land was exchanged for the diamond mine and the French Consulate."
Yun Qiao: "!!!"
She was shocked for a long time before asking: "Why are you spending so much money? There is a lot of land on the east bank of the river, and it is very cheap."
"The land near Yancheng University is expensive. It is right on the edge of the French Concession and has convenient transportation. If you want to be affiliated with Yancheng University, you must be close to their campus.
Although we are thousands of miles apart, if you insist on saying that you are from the Western Medicine Department of Yancheng University, who will take you seriously? We are not stupid," Xi Lanting said.
Yun Qiao: "..."
Even if a large amount of money is spent on advertising to establish a Western medicine school, its prestige is far inferior to that of affiliated to Yancheng University.
The many academic celebrities in Yancheng University are the pride of Yancheng. This natural springboard can allow the Department of Western Medicine to recruit more capable students.
"...There is no loss, I have more money." Xi Lanting said, "However, it will not be so easy to get good quality loose diamonds in the future.
Fortunately, I still saved six of them, which I polished and used to make rings, earrings and necklaces. Next time they have good products, they will give me priority."
Yun Qiao was speechless for a moment.
Maybe the kindness is so heavy that words of thanks become light and meaningless.
