Chapter 9 Restarting Study in the United States
Hierarchical diagnosis and treatment is undoubtedly too advanced for today's New York.
In fact, even more than a hundred years later, the real hierarchical diagnosis and treatment has not yet been implemented, but now John has decided to start trying. Heinz General Hospital is a strong hospital, but don't forget that New York is the fastest growing metropolis in the next few decades, and sooner or later it will not be able to hold on. At that point, it would be much better if a few branches could help.
This idea was quickly recognized by Osler and others.
The rest is much easier, anyway, the Huntelaar family has recently purchased a lot of real estate, and they can choose from Osler. So as soon as he threw things at his men, John went about himself......
……
In July 1895, Europe and North America were relatively quiet.
Of course, this calm is also related to the fact that the economic crisis has come to an end, Europe has eased up, and North America has basically seen the light of day, although there are still aftermaths.
But in the far East, the gunfire has not subsided!
Although the Sino-Japanese Treaty was signed a little later than in history, the wheels were still rolling forward steadily, so the Japanese plan to attack Taiwan was also launched at the same time, and the rumbling cannons and gunfire were in full swing on the other side of the strait!
Merely......
ReasonableThe history of another world is different, and Japan in this world has encountered even more fierce and fierce resistance! Thousands of Mauser rifles and millions of rounds of ammunition have long been smuggled into the island of Taiwan and sold to local resistance forces at cost price. The German rifles with excellent performance and sufficient ammunition caused the Japanese to encounter great trouble in Taiwan, and they lost more than 3,000 people in just one month, and their military expenditures were even more spent!
At the same time, the book on the bus inside the Qing Kingdom also happened.
The defeat in the First Sino-Japanese War made many people eagerly hope to change the country, and for a time the crowd was surging and lively. And at this time, a man wearing Western-style clothes quietly went ashore in Shanghai, and quietly came to Nanjing, where he found Rong Hong, who was in Nanjing and wanted to serve the country......
……
Rong Hong, who is 67 years old this year, is writing hard with a tired face.
In the history of Chinese international students, Rong Hong is undoubtedly a figure who has to be written. He was one of the first Chinese to study in the United States, graduated from Yale University, and later organized the first batch of Chinese "public students", that is, famous young children studying in the United States. In addition, he also contributed to the establishment of the Jiangnan Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, which played a very important role in the process of Chinese opening their eyes to the world.
Of course, Yung Hong's life of more than 60 years has not been smooth.
However, from pinning his hopes on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom back then, to later attaching himself to Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang, and now to the present, Rong Hong's patriotic heart has never cooled! Last year's purchase of ships from Britain had just subsided, and Rong Hong was now distressed by the defeat in the First Sino-Japanese War and the signing of the Treaty of Shimonoseki, desperately thinking of ways to make his motherland strong......
"Bang! Bang! ”
Just as Rong Hong recorded his thoughts, the knocker was knocked gently.
"Who? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me? ”
Rong Hong, whose train of thought was interrupted, frowned, and shouted very unhappily.
The person outside the door fell silent instantly, and after a moment cautiously shouted, "Sir, there is a ...... from outside Well, a young man dressed in a foreigner's clothes says he wants to visit you! If you don't want to see him now, I'll send him back first. ”
"A young man in a foreigner's clothes?"
His brows furrowed again, and Rong Hong's curiosity was immediately aroused.
In the city of Nanjing, there are not many people wearing suits!
So after hesitating for a second or two, Rong Hong immediately opened his mouth and shouted: "Forget it, you ask this gentleman to wait a while, I'll come right away!" ”
A moment later, Rong Hong came to the small hall where he was entertaining, and then saw a young man in his early thirties. What surprised Rong Hong a little was that this young man was extremely tall, about 1.8 meters tall, and his figure was also quite athletic, and his face was flushed, which was obviously a sign of adequate nutrition - such a figure is rare not only in China, but also in Europe and the United States!
"Good afternoon, Mr. Yung!"
After seeing Rong Hong come in, the young man immediately took a few steps forward and respectfully stretched out his right hand: "I take the liberty to excuse me, my name is Su Li, and I was sent to visit you by Mr. Huntelaar in New York, USA." ”
"Oh? Oh good afternoon! “
The familiar and somewhat unfamiliar etiquette in front of him made Rong Hong's spirit instantly trance, and then he reacted. Although he has long been accustomed to this kind of Western-style etiquette, he basically stopped coming into contact with it after returning to China, and now he sees it again from a person with a Chinese face, this taste is indeed a little weird.
After a pleasant exchange, the two sat down separately.
"This Su ...... Mr. Sue, right? ”
After getting the other party's nod of confirmation, Rong Hong asked curiously, "You just said that you were sent by Mr. Huntelaar in New York, specifically to visit me?" ”
"Yes, sir."
Nodding respectfully, Su Li said without hesitation.
With a raised brow, the curiosity in Rong Hong's heart suddenly reached its peak, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is this ...... I don't know if you're ...... over there."
"His chef, to be exact."
Smiling slightly, Su Li nodded and said, "Mr. Huntelaar likes Chinese food very much, so he specially hired me to be his chef for several years. ”
"Cook?"
After hearing this answer, Rong Hong couldn't help frowning.
Seeing the change in Rong Hong's expression, Su Li certainly knew why the other party was frowning. The status of the chef is not high in these years, which Su Li himself is very aware of, but after a flash of displeasure in his eyes, Su Li immediately smiled and said: "Yes, sir, I am the Chinese chef of the Huntelaar family. That's why Mr. Huntelaar sent me here to visit you, because he felt that as a Chinese, it should be easier to communicate with you. ”
"Hmm......"
After a moment of silence, Rong Hong nodded slowly.
Although he studied in the United States since he was a child, and later spent all the year round, Rong Hong still considers himself a Chinese in his heart. On the one hand, of course, it is difficult to leave the homeland, and on the other hand, it is also because neither Europe nor the Americas have ever regarded the yellow race as "their own people". So for Rong Hong, Su Li's identity is indeed more acceptable to him.
And how does the surname Huntelaar sound so familiar......
After contemplating his eyebrows and thinking for a long time, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Rong Hong's mind, and he suddenly exclaimed: "Mr. Huntelaar?!" But John, who founded a hospital in New York? Mr. Huntelaar?! ”
"Yes, it's that Mr. Huntelaar!"
Taking a deep breath, Su Li's face also flashed with a hint of light: "Mr. may not know that Mr. Huntelaar lived in the capital when he was a child, and he didn't leave until he was eleven years old!" This time, when I heard that the Sino-Japanese War was lost, I specially sent me to visit my husband, hoping that you could help restart the ...... of young children studying in the United States" (to be continued. )
