Berlin, midsummer.

When he came out of the operating room, John took off his isolation gown, and after almost tearing off the mask on his face, he finally couldn't help but take a long breath, as if he had just floated up after two minutes of breath under the water.

Up and down, I was already sweating profusely.

After a brief breath, John found the boiled water that he had specially dried before the operation, craned his neck and drained half a large cup in one go. Working in the operating room in the middle of summer is simply a punishment, even if John asks people to put a few buckets of ice cubes in it, it will not help, the materials, technology, etc. are completely backward, so that this era can not make any breathable isolation gowns, so the operation is okay for a short time, like today's gastric resection and gastroduodenal anastomosis, the whole person is already in a semi-dehydrated state!

"Air conditioning! Air conditioning! ”

Thinking back to the extremely comfortable temperature of the operating room in his previous life, and feeling the current state of collapse, John felt that it would be a long and difficult road to get all surgeons in this era to accept measures such as masks and isolation gowns......

……

As he was about to leave work, John's mood finally became happy.

The reason is simple, because he has just received two letters from Karlsruhe, one of which is from Professor Hertz of the University of Karlsruhe. The letter was very much in content, and in addition to his gratitude for John's personal funding of 10,000 marks, Hertz also sent John a paper that he had just finished writing and was ready to send to the journal for publication—Professor Hertz's research results were finally about to be published!

After reading it, John carefully put the letter away.

This letter doesn't actually mean much to him, but for Mr. Tesla, who is far away across the ocean, Professor Hertz's paper represents too much!

The other letter, of course, was from Bentz. He gave John a detailed explanation of the progress of the car's improvements. What is amazing is that after the old Huntelaar received a large amount of money, the development of the car progressed as Benz promised, and at the end of June, Daimler finally developed an engine with up to 35 horsepower. That's a full eight years ahead of history!

The 35-horsepower engine, as well as the pneumatic tires, transmission, steering wheel, brakes, etc., were almost dropped out of his eyes by the sketches that Benz had drawn for John in his letter!

Fortunately, Bentz's words later made John finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The thirty-five-horsepower engine, although powerful, was too unstable, and the results showed that it needed to be improved. On the contrary, another 20-horsepower engine was excellent, and after three months of testing, it had been finalized by Benz.

“…… So we want to start producing the first General Motors! ”

At the end of the letter, Benz again asked John to start producing automobiles. In their opinion. Although there are still various problems with the latest car samples, it is no longer a problem to produce and sell them!

"In that case, there's no way around it."

After reading Bentz's letter, John sighed helplessly after a moment's silence. Originally, he didn't plan to put the car into production so early, but it seems that Bentz has indeed made a relatively good product, and if it is pressed again, I am afraid it will be a little inappropriate.

After hesitating for a moment, John simply slapped the table and secretly pondered: "In that case, then let's just raise the profile!" ”

Spread out a piece of stationery and was about to write a reply to Bentz. There was a knock on the office door.

It was Thomas.

"How's the patient doing?"

Looking up from his desk, John asked casually. Now he was quite comfortable with Thomas. So after the operation, he just stayed in the ward for a while and came out, and the rest was all left to him and Hunter.

"For the time being, there is no big problem."

Shrugging his shoulders, Thomas said calmly: "It's just that the patient's age is a little older after all, and his physical condition is not very good, so it is difficult for us to judge the prognosis......

"Hmm."

There was a momentary pause in his expression. John nodded quickly, though.

After John returned to Charlotte Hospital, this was their third Bi 1 operation, which is not bad as it stands, and the patients from the first two surgeries are still recovering. It's just that John is helpless that the diagnostics of this era are too backward. Lacking the necessary equipment, equipment and methods, in the end, the situation of the three patients' operating rooms was not very good, and even he could not guarantee the final effect!

In this respect, John also somewhat understands Professor Bierrot.

According to the information in John's memory, the success rate of Bierrot's surgery more than ten years before his death was not high, and the patient's prognosis was quite poor. Without the new style of disinfection, local anesthesia, and a lot of knowledge that was ahead of his time, John himself probably wouldn't have the confidence to do it better......

Shaking his head and putting these thoughts aside, John said with a straight face: "Thomas, there is something I need to talk to you about in advance. ”

"What's the matter?"

Looking at each other, Thomas asked a little dazedly.

After a pause, John said in a deep voice, "Thomas, I have decided to return to New York tomorrow spring, would you still like to go back with me now?" ”

"Of course!"

Without hesitation, Thomas immediately nodded.

As the time agreed with John drew closer, Thomas was mentally prepared. Although Professor Bergman also vaguely mentioned to Thomas that he could stay and work at Charlotte Hospital, Thomas, like Paul and Robert, has already strengthened his determination to follow John back to New York!

If nothing else, the brand new hospital building was enough to attract them.

The more time he worked with John, the more Thomas agreed with his medical philosophy, and naturally longed for a hospital building that was built exactly according to John's ideas. Add to that the endless flow of surgical instruments and all kinds of new drugs......

Following John back to New York naturally became his inevitable choice!

John also knew this, he smiled and continued: "In that case, you can help me do something in the next six months." ”

"What's the matter?"

Blinking, Thomas asked with some curiosity.

"Recruit as many physicians and graduates as possible."

After taking a deep breath, John smiled and said, "I will be visiting other schools and hospitals in the second half of the year, so the task of visiting those Americans at the University of Berlin and trying to get them to join our hospital can only be left to you......" (To be continued......
