Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

Chapter 126, Trade-offs

September 14, 1958, the second day of the eighth lunar month, Sunday.

When Zhao Mancang got up, it was already half past nine in the morning and it was already bright outside.

He did not sleep in his own home, but in the lounge of the security department of the steel plant.

Because I had just had surgery last night, after having supper, it was already past one in the morning, almost two o'clock. It was too late, so I didn't go home.

What's more, although Li Lihang's limb replantation surgery has been completed, he still needs to be hospitalized for observation and treatment.

In order to prevent Li Lihang from needing anyone, Zhao Mancang did not go home but stayed in the steel plant.

However, Zhao Mancang slept until dawn, and even now no one has come to see him, which means that Li Lihang's injury is still stable and there is nothing abnormal.

After waking up, Zhao Mancang pushed open the door and went out. Li Baoguo, Zhang Jianyong, Guan Lishan and others were all there. When they saw him come out, they all greeted him in surprise, and the admiration in their words was even greater than before.

When they were handing over their shift this morning, they learned from their colleagues who were on duty last night about the follow-up of Zhao Mancang's surgery on Li Lihang.

Yesterday, Li Lihang accidentally broke his hand before getting off work, and was then rushed to the health center for surgery.

However, Li Baoguo and the others had already gotten off work and left, and did not pay attention to the subsequent events.

So when they changed shifts this morning, they all heard about it, and they even went to the health center to check it out.

Since Li Lihang's current injury is relatively stable and the severed hand is likely to recover in the future, how could they not respect and admire Zhao Mancang?
It’s almost like worshipping you!
I admire you so much!

In the security department, there are many veterans who have retired from the army. They have many comrades-in-arms, some of whom are disabled.

Therefore, Li Baoguo and others all know what life is like after becoming disabled, and they also know how broken hands and legs were treated in the past.

Today, the steel plant's health center has a doctor named Zhao Mancang, who has set a precedent: in the future, severed hands can be spliced ​​back together.

This is good news for Li Baoguo and others.

Although we are living in a peaceful time, there has been no war since a large-scale war on the Korean Peninsula a few years ago.

It's not that there are none at all, but relatively speaking, they are not on such a large scale.

But who knows if there will be one in the future?

Even if not, what if you encounter some dangerous situation while on duty in the security department?

So everyone was naturally happy to have Zhao Mancang around.

In addition to compliments, Li Baoguo took the initiative to provide Zhao Mancang with towels and other items for washing. These things were assigned by Yang Shourong last night, and Han Xiaochuan reported this matter to the former before changing shifts.

After Zhao Mancang washed up, Guan Lishan brought some steamed buns and sweet potatoes from the cafeteria:

"Doctor Zhao, I'm sorry, there aren't many people in the factory today, so we only have this much food this morning. They're still frying bacon and potato shreds, so it will be delivered soon."

Zhao Mancang was surprised when he heard this:

"No need to be so polite. I'll be home soon. Besides, I had my midnight snack around 1 a.m. last night, so I'm not hungry yet. So you can keep it for yourself."

I'm not really that hungry, after all, I had a pretty rich midnight snack last night.

After chatting briefly with Li Baoguo and others, Zhao Mancang left the Security Department.

At the health center, Mei Xiye and Liu Xiaoxi, who stayed behind last night, have already taken over their shifts. Now it's Yang Qingshan, He Zhongyong, Zhou Xiaomei, Luo Jiayi, Liu Xiaoxi and others who are here.

Today is the weekend, so of course Zhang Zongxi is not here.

The entire health center, that is, Zhang Zongxi and Zhao Mancang, do not need to take turns to rest and can just rest on weekends.

"Doctor Zhao, you're here."

Guan Changchun was also in the ward. When he saw Zhao Mancang come in, he couldn't help but stand up and greet him.

"Why are you here? You don't have to be on duty today, right?" Zhao Mancang asked in surprise.

As a result, the other party hesitated for a while, and it was He Zhongyong next to him who answered for him with a smile.

"Doctor Zhao, Doctor Guan is here to learn. You have no idea how serious and hardworking Doctor Guan is. He kept asking Doctor Mei a lot of questions, so much so that Doctor Mei only left half an hour ago."

The limb replantation surgery is undoubtedly very attractive and shocking to Guan Changchun and others.

Guan Changchun and others knew very well what happened last night. Guan Changchun even stayed for a while last night, but then he must have had something happen at home or something, so he left early.

It was precisely because he was so aware of the importance and pioneering nature of limb replantation surgery that Guan Changchun ran back to the steel plant during his break today to learn more.

After all, such a good learning opportunity cannot be missed.

"Not bad, not bad, keep going, I'm very optimistic about you."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mancang patted Guan Changchun's shoulder, who was slightly embarrassed and excited, then sat down and took the pulse of Li Lihang who was lying on the hospital bed.

In fact, this is similar to the "ward rounds" in the hospital.

It's just that the health center is too small, and there are only three wards available for hospitalization, and there is only one inpatient like Li Lihang.

Such an "inpatient department" is not even as big as those township health centers in later generations.

Li Lihang had woken up at this time. When he saw Zhao Mancang, he was very excited, forcing Zhao Mancang to calm him down.

Don't get too excited.

After a few simple questions, Zhao Mancang said with a smile:

"Your condition is very stable now. From now on, you need to stay cheerful and relaxed, don't let your mind wander, rest peacefully, and cooperate with our doctors."

"According to your current condition, you'll probably be able to move your fingers a little in a week, but you'll have to be hospitalized for at least two weeks. A broken bone will take a hundred days to heal, so this is no joke."

Hearing what Zhao Mancang said, Li Lihang became excited again. If Zhao Mancang hadn't glared at him and scolded him, Li Lihang would have stood up and thanked him.

Even so, in the ward, Li Lihang's family repeatedly bowed to Zhao Mancang to express their gratitude.

Li Lihang's hand was broken, which was a devastating blow to the Li family.

Zhao Mancang was able to help take him back and prevent Li Lihang from becoming disabled, so he is the Li family's great benefactor.

In response, Zhao Mancang accepted their thanks with a smile, but still reminded them to try not to disturb Li Lihang's rest as much as possible, as the latter needed more rest.

After a simple 'ward round', Zhao Mancang left the clinic and prepared to go home.

However, when he walked out of the health center gate, he met Qu Guochun and others.

Doctors like Qu Guochun from Union Hospital arrived really quickly.

He had just had supper last night before returning home, but now he was already at the steel plant, at top speed.

When Qu Guochun and the others arrived, Zhao Mancang just exchanged a few brief greetings with them and then went home.

Today is a day off, so of course Zhao Mancang needs to have a good rest.

He is not like Qu Guochun and others who can use their rest time to work.

Arriving at the bicycle shed, Zhao Mancang rode his bicycle out of the steel plant and headed straight home.

When he got home, Lin Wan and Lin Huijun, mother and daughter, were both at home, and Zhang Dongyue and Lin Shuxian, mother and daughter, were also there.

"Dad, you're back. Why didn't you come home last night? Mom and I missed you so much."

The greedy little cat came to Zhao Mancang with two wolfhounds, and his big eyes in his little face were full of confusion.

"A patient was injured last night, and I had to stay to perform surgery. By the time I was done, it was already very late. Plus, I had to make rounds the next morning, so I didn't go home."

Zhao Mancang parked his bicycle, picked up Lin Huijun, and smiled and nodded at Lin Wan and the others who were not far away.

"I'm back now, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yeah, I'm good."

Lin Huijun is young, but very well-behaved and knows how to act coquettishly, which makes Zhao Mancang like her very much.

Zhang Dongyue and her two daughters were very curious about the patient Zhao Mancang had at the steel plant last night. From Lin Kai, neighbors and others, they only knew that a worker named Li Lihang had his right hand cut off by a machine, but they didn't know any more specific details.

Now that Zhao Mancang is back, Zhang Dongyue and the others began to ask curiously.

After chatting with them for a while and satisfying their curiosity, Zhao Mancang said that he would go to find Master Gong and others today to help dig the basement.

"That's such a waste of money. The warehouse is full. If it were up to me, I'd better ask Lin Kai to come over and help dig during his break."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dongyue said so.

But Zhao Mancang shook his head and declined. Why should he owe others a favor when something could be solved with money?
Although the favor from the brother-in-law is worthless, Lin Kai already works very hard, and it is a bit unreasonable for him to be ordered around like this.

How much does it cost to dig a basement?

Besides, today is September 14th, which is already mid-September, and winter is not far away.

If Lin Kai was just allowed to dig the basement at home during his rest time, it might really be delayed until Xiaoxue.

Moreover, if this is the case, Zhao Mancang can completely do the digging by himself. After all, he has the system space and he is strong enough, which gives him an advantage over anyone else.

However, Zhao Mancang was too lazy to do it. After all, money was a bastard and he could earn it later after spending it.

Seeing that Zhao Mancang said so, Zhang Dongyue stopped persuading him.

As for Lin Wan, she mainly followed Zhao Mancang's opinion.

If it were half a month ago, Lin Wan might have advised Zhao Mancang a few words, after all, making money is not easy.

However, Zhao Mancang was about to be promoted, and it was clear that he would basically be promoted to the level of fourth-level deputy chief physician, and the salary for this level was 207 yuan per month.

If Zhao Mancang could continue to receive his salary as a level six breeder, then with the addition of 61.7 yuan, Zhao Mancang's monthly salary would be 268.7 yuan.

With this salary level, it will only take more than half a year to pay off the more than 1,000 yuan foreign debt owed for buying a house.

So Lin Wan had no intention of persuading Zhao Mancang, because she knew that she could not persuade him, and what's more, Zhao Mancang had already told her about this matter during dinner last night.

The couple had already discussed it and naturally reached a consensus.

After staying at home for a while, Zhao Mancang prepared to go out to find Master Gong.

When Lin Huijun saw this, she hugged her father's legs and acted coquettishly, wanting to follow him out.

It would be too boring to stay at home, so it would be better to go out.

"Lin Huijun, what are you doing? Let go of me immediately. Your father is going to do something. It's not appropriate for you to follow him." Lin Wan took a look and immediately shouted loudly.

Not to mention the little greedy cat, even Zhao Mancang himself was startled, "Wan'er, why are you shouting so loudly? Look at you scaring the child so much, his face has turned pale. What if he gets scared silly?"

The little greedy cat was really pale and was really scared.

"Aren't you a doctor? Can't you heal yourself?" Lin Wan wanted to use this sentence to retort Zhao Mancang, but she held back.

The reason why Lin Huijun was so attached to him was all because of Zhao Mancang's pampering. Lin Huijun used to be such a well-behaved child. Since getting married, Lin Wan discovered that the little girl was indeed much more lively and naughty than before.

Although Lin Wan herself knew that children's nature was to love playing and being naughty was the true nature of children.

Lin Huijun used to be so well-behaved and sensible that it made people feel distressed. Lin Wan also hoped that the little one could be more lively.

But now it’s a bit too lively, regardless of the occasion.

So this definitely requires some education, and we can’t just satisfy the little ones with everything.

Seeing that Lin Wan didn't say anything, Zhao Mancang coaxed the little girl for a few words, and then promised to take her out to play in the afternoon. Only then did the little girl smile again.

Riding a 28-inch bicycle out of the house, Zhao Mancang quickly found Master Gong's residence outside the city near Xizhimen.

However, Master Gong was not at home, so Zhao Mancang could only tell the other party's family his purpose and then leave.

Since there was nothing to do, Zhao Mancang went home and took Lin Huijun out to play.

Lin Shuxian also came out.

It was her first time to go shopping on her sister's bicycle, and everything was new to her.

We didn't play for long and it was soon noon.

In the afternoon, Zhao Mancang took Lin Wan and the others to stroll around the Summer Palace.

It’s called strolling, but in fact it’s just eating, drinking, and having fun, such as taking photos.

Taking photos is not cheap these days, but Zhao Mancang was in a good mood, so he took several photos with Lin Wan and the others.

My sister-in-law Lin Shuxian refused at first because she was shy and knew that taking photos was expensive and she was reluctant to spend the money.

The price of taking an ordinary one-inch photo in a state-owned photo studio is fifty cents. If you take it in a scenic spot, at the entrance of a train station, etc., the price of a full-body photo is one dollar.

The prices for ID photos and landscape photos are different.

Fifty cents was certainly very expensive for Lin Shuxian.

But for Zhao Mancang, fifty cents was a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning.

Lin Huijun was most happy about taking photos. When her little face smiled, her eyes were almost invisible. If Zhao Mancang hadn't corrected her and told her that she could smile with her teeth showing but not close her eyes,

Otherwise, her ugly childhood photos would be frozen, and she would have one more embarrassing childhood experience.

"Wan'er, what do you say about us buying a camera?"

At dusk, Zhao Mancang and his friends rode their bicycles slowly out of the Summer Palace and headed towards home.

The Summer Palace is only seven kilometers away from the Friendship Hotel, so you can ride a bicycle leisurely.

"Why buy a camera? It's too expensive. Besides, we don't take pictures that often. Buying film also costs a lot of money. It's better not to spend that money on a camera."

Lin Huijun pouted immediately after hearing Lin Wan's words.

In the little guy’s opinion, even if he can’t buy a camera, he shouldn’t just deny it, right?
Zhao Mancang heard this and said with a smile:

"Let's go to the department store someday. If I remember correctly, a camera should cost about 20 or 30 yuan, which is not very expensive."

"As for film, it should be five or six yuan a box. I think a box contains twenty or thirty negatives, so negatives should be twenty cents a piece."

"I haven't asked how much it costs to develop photos, but it shouldn't be very expensive, right? At least it's cheaper than going to a photo studio or hiring someone to take the photos."

"When we have children, we can take pictures every year to commemorate their growth. That will inevitably cost money, so in the long run, it's more cost-effective to buy a camera. It will also make the experience more fun and comfortable. What do you think, Wan'er?"

Hearing him say that, Lin Wan blushed and said coquettishly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The reason why she was shy was because Zhao Mancang said he wanted to have a baby. How could he talk about this in public?

If it was in Heizhima Hutong, and those aunties and grandmas were just chatting casually, Lin Wan wouldn't take it too seriously if she heard it.

But when these words came out of Zhao Mancang's mouth, Lin Wan was naturally very shy.

"Um, okay." Zhao Mancang was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

Especially Lin Shuxian was also laughing secretly, only Lin Huijun was smiling innocently, not paying attention to what her father said about the child. Instead, she thought that it would definitely be better if the family had a camera in the future.

Because of the talk about the child, Lin Wan didn't speak to Zhao Mancang again for the second half of the journey.

She wasn't angry, but she was afraid that Zhao Mancang would make some shocking remarks again. Wouldn't she be so embarrassed then?

When I got home, Master Gong had been waiting at the door for a while.

"Master Gong, you're here. Please come in."

Master Gong was very polite. He followed Zhao Mancang into the house and greeted him with a smile.

Soon, Zhao Mancang led the other party to sit for a while, and then Master Gong got up to check the room where the basement needed to be dug.

It took more than ten minutes for Zhao Mancang to explain the whole thing about digging a basement.

Digging a basement is not a small project and also requires the purchase of a lot of building materials.

Zhao Mancang meant that it would be the same as the last renovation, all inclusive, and it would be completed within half a month.

In this regard, Master Gong said that it was not a big problem.

It is now September 14th. He can bring people to start work tomorrow and it should be completed before National Day.

For Mr. Gong, who does odd jobs, what he likes most is an employer like Zhao Mancang, who pays promptly and generously and takes care of everything.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Master Gong. You can just come directly tomorrow. There are people at home."

Seeing that the other party was so easy to talk to, Zhao Mancang also spoke happily.

So, the matter was settled.

After seeing Master Gong off, Zhao Mancang returned to the kitchen. Lin Wan asked curiously, how much does it cost to dig a basement?
"It didn't cost much, mainly because the construction materials were quite expensive. I asked them not to be stingy with the materials, so I ordered a lot of cement and steel bars to reinforce the basement."

Zhao Mancang did not mention the actual price, and there was nothing much to say.

Labor costs these days are really cheap, because in this era, there is a huge wage gap between workers with formal jobs and ordinary people without formal jobs.

For people like Master Gong, it's even harder to make money because they don't have a stable job. After all, they need a job to get paid, and without a job, they're left with nothing.

Temporary work is difficult.

Fortunately, it is 1958, a booming construction era, and many projects are being carried out, such as land reclamation, reservoir construction, etc.

And because the Moscow engineers have not yet evacuated and the 20 million workers have not been laid off, even ordinary temporary workers can still barely get by.

The ones who suffered a little more were the farmers in the rural areas. They could not afford commercial grain and had little ability to make money, so they relied on earning work points to make a living.

As night fell, Zhao Mancang and his family of three sat down to eat, but just as they were about to eat, Lin Wan didn't have much appetite.

"Wasn't it fine at noon?"

Seeing that she didn't feel like eating, Zhao Mancang muttered something, then said:
"Give me your hand, I'll take your pulse."

After all, she is his own wife, so Zhao Mancang is of course very concerned about her health. He will get nervous if there is something wrong.

Besides, it’s just taking the pulse, it won’t waste much time.

After carefully taking the pulse for a while, Zhao Mancang suddenly looked surprised and asked Lin Wan:
"Didn't you have your period this month?"

"Ah?" Lin Wan's face immediately turned red. She glared at Zhao Mancang and said angrily, "You're here again, and the child is still here."

Even at home, even when there was only little Lin Huijun around, Lin Wan was still quite shy.

Before Zhao Mancang could speak, Lin Huijun covered her ears and said, "I don't know, I didn't hear it, hehe!"

The little guy's appearance made Zhao Mancang laugh.

"Wan'er, you're just too shy. Didn't the ancients say that you shouldn't be afraid to seek medical treatment when you're ill? Besides, she's just a child. What would she know?"

"I know your period definitely hasn't come because you're pregnant. I just felt your pulse and it was pregnancy. Haha, you're going to be a mother."

When Lin Wan heard what Zhao Mancang said, she was stunned and her expression was full of disbelief.

Although she already has a daughter, Lin Huijun, she has never given birth to a child.

So, if Zhao Mancang did not take her pulse wrongly, then the little guy in her belly was her first child.

For a moment, Lin Wan was stunned and didn't react for a long time.

"Dad, Mom, I don't understand what you are saying." Lin Huijun stopped pretending to be stupid because she really didn't understand.

Her parents clearly looked very happy, but she didn't quite understand and suddenly became anxious.

"You're going to have a brother or sister, haha, aren't you happy?"

Hearing her father's words, Lin Huijun's eyes widened, "I'm going to have brothers and sisters? Where are they? I want to play with them!"

puff!

Lin Wan had already reacted. When she heard the little girl say this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The little girl thought her younger brother or sister would come out soon, so she looked around happily, wanting to find her younger brother or sister to play with.

It was not so bad when she lived in Heizhima Hutong. After all, the neighbors all had children, and there were many children of her age, so she was not bored.

But ever since she and her mother moved to No. 18 Huguo Temple and their current home near the Friendship Hotel, she has been bored.

The children of the neighbors at No. 18 Huguo Temple were all older and she was not familiar with them. In addition, she was often sent back to Heizhima Hutong by her mother, so she was very bored.

After arriving at the courtyard house on Zhongguancun South Street, Lin Huijun felt even more lonely.

Apart from the two wolfhounds, she had no playmates.

The neighbors nearby are not familiar to him, or there is the Friendship Hotel next door, so the little guy really wants to have a playmate.

"Your brother and sister haven't been born yet. They are still in your mother's belly." Zhao Mancang laughed loudly, very happy.

After hearing this, the little girl came straight to her mother, looked at her mother's belly, and asked curiously:

"Mom, why did you hide your brothers and sisters? Let them come out and play with me."

puff!

Both Zhao Mancang and Lin Wan were so happy that it took them a while to explain everything to the little one.

However, the little girl still didn't believe it and thought that her mother had hidden her younger brothers and sisters.

So her eyes rolled around, and she made an excuse that she was full and took the two wolfhounds to look for her younger brother and sister.

After the little guy left the dining room, Lin Wan looked at Zhao Mancang and said:

"Mancang, are you sure I'm pregnant?"

"Of course, there's no doubt about that. And you definitely haven't had your period yet. You should remember when your period last came, right?"

Seeing Zhao Mancang so confident, Lin Wan immediately smiled with joy.

Being pregnant is a good thing, but she suddenly thought of something and looked back at the door. The little one was still looking for her younger brother or sister. She was probably obsessed with finding a playmate.

"Mancang, we can't practice water magic tonight. My mother told me that once a woman is pregnant, she can't..."

The smile on Zhao Mancang's face suddenly froze.

It is natural that he cannot fail to understand this common sense.

Therefore, he was naturally unhappy when Lin Wan said this.

But no matter how unhappy he is, Lin Wan is his wife. He can't cause trouble just for a moment of happiness, right?
So, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

When Zhao Mancang woke up the next day, he still had some dark circles under his eyes.

Lin Wan couldn't help but laugh when she saw his expression.

"Are you still looking for your younger brothers and sisters?" Zhao Mancang glared at his wife, shifted his attention, and started chatting with the little girl Lin Huijun.

"Dad, do you know where my mother hid my brother and sister?"

"Didn't Daddy tell me that your brother and sister are still very young. They are still in your mother's belly and haven't been born yet."

"All right!"

The little guy didn't quite believe it, but he had to accept it.

Seeing her 'absent-minded' look, Zhao Mancang immediately said:
"Come here, Xiaojun. Dad will teach you how to read and buy you a picture book later, okay?"

"Really?"

Of course it’s true, it’s definitely not false.

This morning, Lin Wan was cooking and Zhao Mancang was teaching the children to read and write.

Not long after Zhao Mancang had finished his breakfast, Master Gong arrived with a large group of people.

If Master Gong wants to complete the work within half a month, he certainly needs to work hard.

If the working hours could be shortened a bit, Master Gong could earn even more.

After all, this is a turnkey job, and the sooner he finishes the work, the more time he will have to take on the next order.

Master Gong and his team started working quickly. When Zhao Mancang was about to go out, his mother-in-law also came.

Zhao Mancang naturally felt more at ease knowing that there was someone to help take care of the children and look after the house at the same time.

Steel plant, at the gate.

When Zhao Mancang rode in on his bicycle, not only were the security staff like Xiao Shutie extremely respectful to him, but many workers also greeted him with warm smiles and nods when they saw him.

But in fact, Zhao Mancang did not know these workers.

It can only be said that Zhao Mancang's fame is growing. Many workers in the steel plant know him and know that Li Lihang's severed hand was healed the day before yesterday.

Looking at the system's constantly rising experience value, Zhao Mancang felt that working overtime the day before yesterday was absolutely the right decision.

Although he did not know these workers, he had met them all before, and even some of them he had treated in clinics and health centers before. However, Zhao Mancang did not remember their names.

However, no matter what, Zhao Mancang did not lose money and earned enough experience points.

"Mancang, you're here. Park your bike and come to my office."

At the door, behind Zhao Mancang, Yang Shourong's car stopped.

"Okay, Director Yang, I'll be there soon."

Zhao Mancang smiled and nodded. This time, it should be about a salary increase, right?
After saying hello to Xiao Shutie and the others, Zhao Mancang rode to the bicycle shed, parked his bike, and went straight to Director Yang's office.

In the office, Yang Shourong looked at Zhao Mancang and said:

"You're here pretty quickly. Come on, follow me to the leader."

The leader he was talking about was naturally Xing Shuqi's side.

In the office of the top leader, all three leaders were present today. Xing Shuqi immediately asked Zhao Mancang whether Li Lihang had been given a follow-up visit.

"Boss, no, I just arrived at the factory gate and Boss Yang asked me to go to his office, and then I came to you."

Zhao Mancang heard this and shook his head:

"But no one came to see me yesterday. Li Lihang must have recovered well. Otherwise, Guan Changchun, He Zhongyong and the others would have come to see me."

There were people on duty 24 hours a day yesterday and last night. As long as there was anything wrong with Li Lihang, someone would definitely notify Zhao Mancang as soon as possible.

It’s just that Zhao Mancang played all day yesterday and no one came to see him, so there was naturally nothing important.

Xing Shuqi nodded upon hearing this and said:

"Then wait and see. Li Lihang is the first patient in our country, and perhaps even the first in the world, to have a successful limb replantation. He deserves special attention."

So, from this point of view, Li Lihang is undoubtedly lucky.

However, no one likes to have their hand cut off because it hurts too much.

Zhao Mancang knew that the next step was the key.

As he expected, Xing Shuqi and others made arrangements regarding salary increase.

When Li Lihang was undergoing surgery the evening before yesterday, so many people came, including Hua Yunlong, the deputy director of the PLA General Hospital. Zhao Mancang had already guessed something.

Although Hua Yunlong is only the vice president of a hospital, it depends on what kind of hospital it is.

Hua Yunlong also has another identity, that is, a full-time doctor at the Health Bureau.

This identity alone is enough to show that Hua Yunlong is not a simple character.

According to Xing Shuqi and others, the operation the night before last was a test, and Zhao Mancang passed it successfully.

The so-called assessment was just a formality. What's more, the limb replantation surgery completed by Zhao Mancang the day before yesterday was an unprecedented feat. It was a nuclear bomb that subverted the medical community. It was definitely different.

"Originally, the Union Hospital, PLA General Hospital and other units all wanted to transfer your relationship, but we didn't agree."

Xing Shuqi said with a smile:
"Mancang, you won't blame us, right? After all, what we're doing is really hindering your development."

Zhao Mancang heard this and shook his head:

"I follow the organization's arrangements."

At the steel plant, Zhao Mancang was still very free, and Xing Shuqi and the other three were very nice to him, so he didn't want to leave the steel plant very much.

Although Xing Shuqi and the other three made the decision for him without asking for his opinion, this was not a good thing.

But it should be clear that Xing Shuqi is not an ordinary person. The steel plant will continue to grow and develop in the future, and its scale will not be small.

Therefore, compared to going to other units, Zhao Mancang certainly prefers to stay in the steel plant.

In addition, there is another point, that is, even if he leaves the steel plant, he may not be able to continue to receive two salaries.

Although Zhao Mancang already received the salary of a fourth-level associate chief physician, he didn't care much about the salary of a sixth-level breeder.

However, Zhao Mancang would not think that his salary was too high. Besides, the Jundushan Musk Deer Breeding Farm still needed him for the time being, so he definitely needed to take responsibility to the end.

Then there is the dairy cow improvement project, which is also the same.

Therefore, the six words "obey the organization's arrangements" are enough to explain everything.

Xing Shuqi, Shen Zhongxin and Yang Shourong laughed when they heard this.

As they expected, Zhao Mancang was still willing to stay in the steel plant.

"Haha, Mancang, we really didn't misjudge you. In fact, we didn't make any decisions for you. It was just a bet between a few of us. Don't take it to heart."

Zhao Mancang was stunned for a moment, then he was stunned for a moment, shook his head and laughed.

These leaders are really good at playing tricks.

However, Zhao Mancang could also understand it. After all, it was rare for a steel plant to produce such a talented person. Xing Shuqi and the others would certainly try their best to keep Zhao Mancang.

As long as Zhao Mancang's relationship remains in the steel plant, the relevant achievements will remain in the steel plant.

If Zhao Mancang left the steel plant, even if Zhao Mancang made achievements in the future, the steel plant would at most gain a good reputation, but would not receive any other substantial rewards.

You know, today's Zhao Mancang has mastered medical skills such as acupuncture hemostasis, nine needles for restoring yang, craniotomy, heart repair surgery, and limb replantation surgery. These surgical skills are very powerful and very important.

Therefore, Xing Shuqi and others could only use some tricks to retain Zhao Mancang.

Fortunately, Zhao Mancang didn't care much about it and was willing to stay in the steel plant, otherwise it would be a bit difficult.

"Starting this month, you will receive the salary of a Level 4 Associate Chief Physician. Your Level 6 Animal Keeper's salary will remain unchanged for now."

Mentioning this, Xing Shuqi sighed:

"It's really difficult to get two salaries. I talked to my superiors for a long time before we finally decided on this. But, Mancang, when you finish the musk deer breeding project, you can no longer receive two salaries."

In the new era, new society and new country, there are many capable people, who are indeed exceptions.

In the past, Zhao Mancang’s salary was not high. If he received two salaries, even if someone was dissatisfied, no one would say much.

Because there are too many people who earn higher salaries than Zhao Mancang.

For example, Xu Shiqi, a doctor at Union Hospital who earns the salary of a fourth-level deputy director, and people like Qu Guochun and Ming Kecheng, all have salaries much higher than Zhao Mancang's two salaries.

So, these people don't care.

However, when Zhao Mancang was promoted to the rank of associate chief physician at level 4, one had to pay attention to the impact.

After all, at this time, Zhao Mancang had become a high-income person.

A monthly salary of two hundred and seven yuan is really a lot.

The most important thing is that according to Zhao Mancang's current skills, it would not be surprising even if he was paid the salary of a second-level or first-level chief physician.

In other words, Zhao Mancang is too young, and he is still in the steel plant health center, so it is not appropriate for him to be promoted too much all at once.

Take it one step at a time!

Therefore, as for the current salaries of the fourth-level deputy chief physician and the sixth-level breeder, there should not be much problem in the short term.

From now on, Zhao Mancang's main job will gradually shift to doctor, and the work of the breeder will be reduced as much as possible.

Anyone who is not a fool can see that Zhao Mancang's medical skills are stronger and his influence on the steel plant is greater.

As for the breeder?

Haha, to be honest, no matter what unit it is, there is always a breeder!

After listening to this, Zhao Mancang nodded to indicate that he understood.

The identity of a breeder is not so important to Zhao Mancang nowadays. Even if he is no longer responsible for this kind of work in the future and cannot receive two salaries, he will not feel any regrets.

Seeing that Zhao Mancang had no objection, Xing Shuqi continued:

"Then it's settled. This morning at 10 o'clock, you and I will go to the PLA General Hospital in the city. There will be a meeting there that requires your attendance..."

"Okay, leader, I understand." Zhao Mancang nodded and continued:

"If there's nothing else, I'll go to work first."

Upon hearing this, Xing Shuqi and the other two stood up and said with a smile that they would go to the health center to see Li Lihang together.

Zhao Mancang naturally had no objection to this.

However, just as they walked out of the office, Xing Shuqi's driver Sun Weizhong also came over.

"Leader, there's an accident in the first workshop..."
