Chapter 63: A Real Man Must Not Be Afraid of Pain!
Jia Lei hurriedly ran to the hospital after receiving a call from Hong Chen the next day, and as soon as Jia Lei walked to the door of the ward, he heard a ghost jackal howl inside.
"My money, my money is gone...... How can I live now!Why are you still saving me? Let me die......" Fat Xia's voice was so good that he couldn't even close the door of the ward.
"Whew! Listening to this angry cry, Xia Fatzi must be nothing serious. Jia Lei said with a sigh of relief in front of the door, and then he pushed the door in.
"Fat Xia, are you okay? You were fine yesterday, why did you suddenly end up in the hospital today?" Jia Lei asked.
"Huh, any of you called Jia Lei, don't you think I'm embarrassed enough, and do you want a child to come to see my jokes?" said Xia Fatzi with his neck crooked and angry.
"It was me who called Jia Lei, weren't you robbed, I'll ask Jia Lei to help you think of a way?"
"What can Jia Lei do with his child? Those people have guns, and besides, foreigners all look similar, I can't recognize those people standing in front of me, and Jia Lei can't help when he comes." Xia Fatzi shook his head and said.
"Ouch, it hurts me!" "Fat Xia just shook his head and immediately touched the bandage on his head and screamed.
"Why is it that even my head is injured, is it serious?" Jia Lei asked worriedly looking at the red bandage.
"The doctor said that the skin injury was not serious, and he didn't even use anesthetic, just a few stitches after simple disinfection. However, the doctor said that he was afraid that Xia Fat would have a concussion, so let her stay in the hospital for observation for two days!" said the neighbor.
"It's okay if you're fine, may I ask ...... you?" Jia Lei glanced at the stranger and asked.
"I'm Xia Fatzi's neighbor He Yi, you can call me Mr. He. He Yi said.
"Jia Lei, it was this Mr. He who sent Xia Fatzi to the hospital. Hong Chen explained.
"Since you sent him here, do you know what happened to him last night?" Jia Lei asked.
"Hmm...... I fell asleep last night and didn't hear what happened to him, and then Lao Xia crawled to my door and knocked on the door, and I found out that something happened to him. He Yi said embarrassedly.
"I wondered, you didn't even listen to such a big commotion in our house! If you hadn't woken up when you opened the door, I would have thought you did it on purpose. Xia Fatzi said with a snort.
"Who made you drink too much yesterday and go crazy everywhere, so noisy that I can't rest! I plugged my ears, or I'd have noticed that something was wrong. He Yi explained.
"Forget it, it's useless if you find out! You're just one more person being beaten, and those robbers have guns in their hands. Xia Fatzi rolled his eyes and said.
"Burglary and gun, did you call the police for such a big incident?" Jia Lei asked with a frown.
It is said that there have been more than a dozen robbery cases against the Chinese lord recently, and the police of country E said that the Armenians and Azerbaijanis who had fled to Moscow had done it, not the Russians. The police said they would do their best to investigate!" He Yi said helplessly.
"What are you trying your best to investigate? Isn't this just a pretext, don't you see the perfunctory effort when they make the transcript? They just make the transcript and then ask a passer-by a few words, how can they catch someone in this way? Mary said angrily.
"That's why I asked Hong Chen to call Jia Lei, and Jia Lei can talk to the official people of E Ross in our group. Shen Ning said.
"You wait, I'll have someone call the mayor's secretary and ask someone to go to the police station to help you ask. Jia Lei said with a frown.
"Jia Lei, then I will rely on you, and you also know that this money is already my entire net worth!" said Xia Fatzi excitedly.
****
There are people in the DPRK and China who are easy to handle, and less than half an hour after Jia Lei's phone call went out, another team of policemen came to the hospital to learn about the case.
This time it was a deputy director who took the lead, who learned about the incident in detail like Xia Fatzi, and also sent someone to his apartment to collect the prisoner's fingerprints and other clues.
"When will you catch someone?" Jia Lei asked unceremoniously.
"The mayor's secretary specially explained that I must help you investigate the matter clearly, then I will tell you the truth, it is easy to investigate the matter this time, but it is difficult to catch the prisoner!" said the deputy director helplessly.
"Why do you say that, if you can find someone, how can you not catch it?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.
"You also know that now all the states are clamoring for independence, and Moscow's orders are not working well in those places. These people usually hide in all corners of Moscow and commit crimes, and once they are caught, they will return to their own country, and our people have no way to go to those places to arrest people. The deputy director shook his head and said.
"Then are you just going to forget it? They are just robbing with guns now, and they may be killing people next time!" Jia Lei asked in disbelief.
"Don't wait for next time, they've already killed people! Recently, seven or eight Huaxia masters have been killed in Moscow, and it is said that two groups of people are the ones who did it! One group is these outsiders, and it is said that after a while, it is also your Huaxia masters. Your friend was lucky this time, he was just beaten up, and there was nothing life-threatening!" said the deputy director.
"Oh my God, why don't I know about this kind of thing?" Jia Lei said in surprise.
"I advise you Huaxia people that it is better not to be alone next time! No matter which group of people specialize in picking on lonely people, if you get together, they will not dare to move. Also, you'd better bring some weapons with you when you go out, so that you can defend yourself! You also know that Moscow is very chaotic right now, and there are cases every day. The deputy director said.
"Thank you for your advice!" Jia Lei immediately nodded and said.
"Can I ask you a question when the police come down first?" said Mary suddenly.
"Madam, do you have any questions for you?" said the deputy director.
"Why are these robbers targeting us Chinese? Why don't they look for Russians or Vietnamese?" asked Mary.
"Because our locals are more fierce, and Vietnamese people like to hold groups! And everyone knows that you people from Huaxia are the richest, because you Huaxia people like to carry a lot of cash on your body or put it in the house, so you Huaxia people are targeted by these people! Especially ladies like you are more likely to be in danger, I hope you will also be careful!" said the deputy director.
"I see, thank you for your advice!" said Mary with a nod.
"I'm really bothering you this time, if there is any news, can you please let us know as soon as possible?"
"Of course, if you have the opportunity to take me to say hello to General Utarus, then I will take my leave. The deputy director said.
"Okay, I'll pass on your words to my uncle! The next time I see Mayor Luzhkov, I'll thank him for your help, you're a good policeman who does your duty. Jia Lei said with a smile.
After seeing off the deputy director, Jia Lei returned to the ward, and then he found that the atmosphere in the room was even worse.
"What's wrong with all of you?" asked Jia Lei.
"Actually, I've heard of the murder of the fallen master before, but I thought it was just a rumor! Moscow is in such chaos now, it is normal for a few people to die. It's just that I didn't expect that it would be our own people who did such a crazy thing. Shen Ning said with a frown.
"It's not surprising, there are always people who like to get something for nothing! As a bad man, he has to get up early and work late every day to sell goods, and the last time he had to stay up on the train for ten days and half a month. Not everyone can bear this hardship, and those who have bad hearts are waiting for others to sell their goods and reap the benefits of Weng!" Jia Lei said with a sneer.
"Yes! I heard that some people have opened a casino in Moscow now, and they are specially designed to trick Huaxia to gamble in it! Those people who have lost all their money in it go out to find their own people to rob them, because the circle of people in Moscow is not large. This group of people is very ruthless, and they have to kill people after every robbery! I plan to quit my job when I return to China this time, because it is too dangerous here. Shen Ning said.
"Now that the development in China is also very fast, it is better for you to take the capital in your hand and go back to do some small business!" Jia Lei nodded and said.
"Then what should I do? Now that I have been robbed of all my capital, what face do I have to go back to see my family? I don't even have the money to buy a ticket back to China. Xia Fatzi said in a broken heart.
"I can lend it to you!" Mr. Jia said.
"But the borrowed money needs to be repaid, and this time, in order to use your plane to do big business, I borrowed 10,000 US dollars at home to load the goods. Xia Fatzi said with a wry smile.
"I don't believe you don't have a penny left at home? Ma Li said.
"My family does have $10,000, but that's the money I saved for my sister Xiaoxia's tuition! Xia Fatzi shook his head and said.
"Alright, don't cry poor here! I still don't have a seller in the stall of an ant market, if you want, stay and help me sell your goods." I can give you a 10% commission!" Jia Lei rolled his eyes and said.
"Jia Lei, you don't have to give me a job in order to take care of me! I'm so old that I can find a job by myself, and I can stay and earn money as a translator for the newcomers. Xia Fatzi thought about it and said.
"I really didn't take care of you on purpose, the goods I brought this time were all improvised patchwork, so there aren't many. But I have already placed large orders in several factories in China, and soon these things will be shipped over! I am already short of a salesman, Hong Chen can help me sell when there are few things, but after there are more things, I will definitely have to hire a salesman. I don't know anyone here, so it's better to hire someone else than to hire you!" Jia Lei said.
"Jia Lei, I think the luckiest thing in my life is to know you!" Xia Fatzi hugged Jia Lei and said gratefully.
"You dead fat man, let go, your tears and snot are rubbing on me!" Jia Lei pushed away in disgust and said.
Now that Xia Fatzi has become his own employee, Jia Lei plans to help him, a poor bastard, pay the medical bills. So Jia Lei took someone to find a doctor and asked Xia Fatzi how much his medical expenses were.
"Did you ask me how much your friend's medical expenses were?" the doctor was surprised when he heard Jia Lei's question.
"What, is this question of mine very strange? Could it be that my friend is very sick and needs surgery?" Jia Lei saw the doctor's strange face and immediately asked worriedly.
"Your friend just had a little skin trauma and didn't need surgery. We Russians go to the hospital for free when they are sick, and there is no registration fee and examination fee as you mentioned, because you are foreigners, so we still have to charge a little medical and hospitalization fee! Because we don't have enough medicine in the hospital now, your friend just has a few injections of poison and a few stitches, and it is useless to take anesthetic, you only need to pay 1,500 roubles. The doctor said unconcernedly.
"Ah, how much do you say? You are not wrong about this number, right?" Jia Lei asked in surprise when he heard this number.
"I also know that 1500 rubles is a bit much, but now the medicine outside is very expensive, and we can't give it to your friends for free. If he is an international student like you, we can go to it for free, and all international students can go to medical insurance as long as they tell us their names. When you're hospitalized, I promise you won't have to spend a penny. The Russian doctor said sincerely.
"I'd rather not take advantage of this than be hospitalized!" Jia Lei was so frightened that he immediately shook his head and said.
"By the way, did you just say that you didn't give him anesthetic, just because you have a shortage of anesthetic here, and not because you were afraid that he would hurt his cranial nerves?"
"Yes, there is a shortage of materials in all industries across the country, and the anesthetic that we can get in our hospital every month is limited, and we can only keep it for the seriously injured who need surgery. Injuries like theirs are all simple disinfection treatment, and no anesthetics are given!" the doctor nodded.
"Okay! Thank you!" Jia Lei paid the medical bills after speaking, and walked out of the doctor's office stiffly.
"Oh my God! I don't want to be sick and hospitalized in Moscow in my life, and the fat man Xia has seven or eight stitches on his head! Such a serious wound is not even given anesthetic, aren't Muscovites afraid of pain?" Jia Lei asked speechlessly standing in the corridor of the emergency room.
"We're afraid of pain, but we're used to it!" answered a wounded man who was waiting in the hallway, with a blur of flesh and blood.
Jia Lei saw that he was stabbed in the arm, and he was still chatting with him indifferently, and he was about to be scared to death.
"Your wound is still bleeding, do you really need anesthetic?" Jia Lei asked with a pale face.
"We Muscovites like to drink and fight, and these skin injuries are trivial to us. Don't worry, the doctors in this hospital have very good suturing skills and complete equipment, and they can treat any disease. It's just that there is a bit of a shortage of anesthetic here, and the price of this thing is too expensive, and ordinary hospitals for the wounded will not give it to you, and this thing is in short supply in any hospital in Moscow!" the man said.
"Okay, I understand! You quickly shut up and rest, I'll go first! I won't bother you......" After Jia Lei said this, he was so frightened that he ran away like a rabbit.
"Oh yes, this kid is so timid, I only had a little blood and I didn't miss an arm or leg, and he was scared away. The wounded man turned to his fellow companion, who was also covered in blood.
"What should a boy do when he grows up when he is so timid!" said another wounded man with blood on his head.
In 92 years, Moscow, despite soaring prices and a shortage of things everywhere, still insisted on free medical care, free education and free housing for all.
At that time, even if a foreign student went to university, he only needed to pay a teacher's salary for one month's salary to pay for a year's tuition in Moscow, and this money even included a year's food expenses.
This is the so-called high-welfare society in the West, where almost every household has natural gas, and the cost of rent, water and electricity is almost equal to nothing.
By the way, the meals for the patients in the hospital are also free!
For these strong Eross, it doesn't matter if the operation hurts a little, the most important thing is that it's free......
Of course, later, with all kinds of international student passports to live in the school to take advantage, the Russians woke up to the fact that studying abroad is also a business!
Therefore, after a few years, the cost of studying in Moscow began to rise sharply, and it was in line with domestic standards, and the cost of studying there would definitely not be low!
