Patent fees for penicillin and Baiyao account for a large part of Abu's income, which is unlikely to be so high for ordinary professors.
Unlike German universities where there is only one professor in a field, there are many professors in the same field in Southern Africa. At this time, professor has become a professional title like "lecturer" and "department chair". Although the status is still very high,
No longer unique.
The "Department Chair" is definitely unique, but this position is given too much administrative overtones, and it is also a pity that I cannot devote myself to research.
This is normal. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. No profession is perfect. The conditions given by Abu are enough to prove the sincerity of Nyasaland University.
The house that Abu prepared for Professor Heslin is located on the bank of Xuanji Lake. The total upstairs and downstairs of the marble villa is nearly 500 square meters, and the lawn and garden area exceeds an acre.
Such a villa is not for sale to the public and cannot be bought with money. Abu himself also lives here. Also living in this area are Rudolf Diesel, Douglas, and Gabriel Lippe, who served as president of the French Academy of Sciences.
Mann, and Alexi Carrel, who fought in World War I.
Mrs. Heslin asked Abu on the way to Xuanji Lake, hoping that Abu could introduce an excellent doctor to Emma and systematically check Emma's body.
Abu took care of everything and asked Emma to go to Nyasaland University Hospital for a check-up tomorrow. Hospitals in southern Africa are different from hospitals in Germany. German hospitals are mainly clinics, and doctors may have made achievements in a certain field.
It is impossible to cover all areas.
Abu himself is an excellent doctor, the kind of doctor who has won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, but when asked to treat patients, Abu is really not as good as the attending physicians working in the hospital.
Professor Heslin said very little along the way, and remained taciturn until he reached Xuanji Lake.
After arriving at the house prepared by Abu for Professor Heslin and his family, Abu asked the housekeeper to show Mrs. Heslin and Emma around, and he invited Professor Heslin to take a walk on the lawn.
"Please forgive me, old friend. After I learned about the tragedy of Melk, I really didn't dare to leave you in Munich. I was afraid that the tragedy of Melk would happen to you. There are fewer and fewer of us old friends now."
,Here, you can continue your research. If you don’t want to, you can not be the head of the department or lead students, and just continue your research. We old guys can’t live for many years. I hope you don’t blame me.
Me." Abu apologized to Professor Heslin, but Professor Heslin remained silent and walked forward silently with his head lowered.
The environment is quite good, with winding cobblestone paths on the green lawn, crickets chirping in the grass, fireflies flying around, frogs singing one after another by the lake not far away, and unknown voices overhead.
The famous big bird flew by, the temperature was moderate, neither too cold nor too hot, nothing to be picky about.
"Actually, I'm not lying to you. Look here -" Abu unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a long scar that was shocking.
"What's going on?" Professor Heslin was surprised.
"I had a serious heart problem last year and almost died on the operating table. I came back to work a week after the operation. Governor Anton wanted me to rest for a while, but you know-" Abu didn't finish.
He is also a person who is extremely responsible for his work.
"Yes, we are all old." Professor Heslin looked sad. In the past two years, Professor Heslin's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. That is to say, Professor Heslin can only survive with his strong will.
Those who couldn't hold on any longer burned charcoal and committed suicide.
"Nyaasaland University has the most superior environment, the most open atmosphere, and the most tolerant thinking. I believe my old friend, you will shine here." Abu said earnestly. If Professor Heslin is still
If you don't agree, then there's nothing Abu can do.
"Do I have any other choice?" Professor Heslin resented, thinking that he had boarded Abu's pirate ship.
Back in the house, the young people were chatting excitedly in the living room, and even Emma, who had been drowsy just now, was in high spirits.
Mrs. Heslin was in the kitchen preparing something for everyone to eat. Abu thought of all the problems, and the only thing he didn't prepare was the ingredients.
But this is not a problem for Abu. There are more than a dozen restaurants in Nyasaland University. Abu directly called the chef to bring the ingredients to make it on site.
While waiting for the chef, Mrs. Heslin introduced Otto's situation to Abu, hoping that Abu could provide some help to Otto.
"God, you are Otto, Melk's son. I can't believe you are so old. I heard about you. Don't worry, I will take care of it." Abu took care of everything.
, with his current status, it shouldn’t be too easy to help Otto find a job.
"Uncle Cosel, I still have some money here. If possible, I would like to buy a farm. I don't want to go back to Munich." Otto hoped for a new start. Munich had too many painful memories.
"Okay, leave this to me and I will find a good place for you." Just for the sake of being called uncle, Abu was willing to help.
At night, Professor Heslin was not sleepy at all. There was a spacious study room on the second floor of the house that Abu prepared for Professor Heslin. The study room was surrounded by bookshelves, and there were many books that Professor Heslin had sent to Xuanji City in advance.
It is a new addition. There is a typewriter on the table, the windows are spacious and bright, and the wine cabinet contains not only wine but also coffee. This time, you can drink as much as you want.
"How about it? Isn't it much nicer than your little attic?" Mrs. Heslin really didn't mean to ridicule Professor Heslin, but was happy for Professor Heslin.
"Of course it's great. The principal's office isn't even that big, but I always feel like it's not a place for research. The bookshelves seem to be there for guests to see." Professor Heslin shook his head and smiled bitterly. Professor Heslin once also imagined that
He had never been able to have such a spacious and bright study room. Although he had obtained it now, Professor Heslin did not feel much joy.
"Hahahaha, old man, don't think too much - I'm warning you, don't make any extraneous matters. Even if you want to go to Munich, you have to wait until Emma gives birth to the child before returning." Mrs. Heslin's expression was serious. She has no children of her own.
Treat Emma as your own daughter.
"How could it be-" Professor Heslin muttered in a low voice. He suddenly realized that it would be a good idea to stay in Xuanji City. Nyasaland University should prepare an office for him on campus. In that case, Professor Heslin would no longer have to endure Heslin.
Madam's Hedong lion roared.
Sitting behind his desk, he pressed the keys of the typewriter twice to feel the feel, leaned back on the chair to feel whether the angle was suitable, and patted the cowhide-covered armrests. Professor Heslin finally confirmed that all of this was true.
cheat?
No, no, there is no deception, only true fragrance.
The next day, Abu asked his secretary to take Otto to pick out a farm, and Erwin also followed.
Although Professor Heslin's salary is very high, Erwin will not be hungry even if he does nothing, but Erwin is not willing to live dependent on Professor Heslin, so it would be good to become a farmer with Otto.
With Abu stepping forward, the Xuanji City Government cooperated unconditionally. Originally, there were no farms around Xuanji City, but Abu asked if there was no farm supply. The city government had four pieces of land for Otto to choose from, all of which were on the banks of Xuanji Lake. The terrain was superior.
, the transportation is convenient, the key is that it is not far from Xuanji City, and it only takes ten minutes to get to Professor Heslin's home by motorcycle.
"Don't make a decision in a hurry. You can choose slowly, and don't worry about funding. With Mr. Cosell's guarantee, you can get a loan from Rand Bank." Abu's secretary Wadsworth is reliable, and his official
The position is assistant to the president of Nyasaland University. In Xuanji City, this position has a status similar to that of the mayor's secretary.
"Then I want the largest one, 350 acres, priced at 1,800 rand. It is 50 kilometers away from Xuanji City, not far nor close. Then I will leave a house for Hugo and Emma, and let them come on weekends.
Vacation." Erwin thought carefully, Hugo must stay and work beside Professor Heslin, he was Professor Heslin's best student.
"Is it a bit expensive?" Otto hesitated. The conditions of this farm are indeed good, but the price is indeed expensive. R1,800 is not a small number, and Professor Heslin's annual salary is only R1,500.
"Mr. Wadsworth, what's your suggestion?" Erwin didn't have much money either. Since Wadsworth just said he could get a loan, Erwin was not welcome.
"This farm is nice -" Wadsworth had just said a word when a quarrel suddenly came from outside the door.
"Stop dreaming. The land around Xuanji Lake will not be sold. Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. The park and the road around the lake have been opened, and the price is ten rand per acre. Are you trying to steal money?"
The staff sounded a bit harsh. Ten rands per acre was much more expensive than the price offered to Otto.
"Sir, I'm not buying it to be a farm. I'm going to build a villa area for sale. If the price is not enough, then how much do you want, and I will give it as much as you want?" A rude voice shouted loudly, some
Rich people are always like this. A rich person should have everything. In fact, among many symbols of strength, economic strength is the cheapest one.
"Of course not. Maybe you can do whatever you want in other places if you have money, but not in Xuanji City - I warn you, don't try to bribe me. I haven't taken your money seriously yet. If you do this again, I will
I'll call the police." The staff spoke righteously. It's great to be rich. Civil servants in Southern Africa are all rich people with hundreds of acres of farmland at home. People with one or two hundred rand really don't look down on them.
Southern Africa has extremely strict requirements in this regard. Giving and accepting bribes is a serious crime in Southern Africa and is an unforgivable crime.
