"There are a few more old faces that I haven't seen today."

After pulling John and Ehrlich to sit down, Professor Bergmann couldn't help but sigh: "I remember the first time I attended this kind of meeting, it seemed to be twenty or thirty people, most of them were doctors from Berlin. Later, as the fame of Helmholtz, Petenkov and Koch grew, so did the number of people who attended the meeting, and today there are more than 300 people! But...... A lot of old friends didn't see it. ”

"At least, I'm afraid Professor Petenkov won't be here today."

As soon as Professor Bergman's voice fell, Ehrlich couldn't help but interject.

Although he spoke in a very calm tone, the other three people around him could hear it, and there was a very obvious schadenfreude in Ehrlich's words. But it's no wonder that in the past few months, Ehrlich, along with Koch and others, has become a sworn enemy with Petenkov, who insisted on the volatilization of soil toxins. The two sides debated, quarreled, and even attacked each other, which has long been a bit of a disagreement. Fortunately, it is now the end of the 19th century, and Europe has almost entered a "civilized" society, and if it had been a few decades ago, it would not have been impossible to pull out guns and shoot at each other!

Ehrlich didn't have any affection for Petenkov, who had dried a whole bottle of cholera bacillus.

But in addition to the slow disgust, Ehrlich can't hold a trace of respect for Petenkov, after all, not everyone can drink a bottle of Vibrio cholerae without changing their faces, and this is after both John and Koch insisted that it was the cause of cholera!

That's a real warrior who dares to face death!

However, thanks to John's reminder, Koch guessed Petenkov's plan as in history, and the Vibrio cholerae provided was greatly less virulent, so that Pettenkov escaped. However, as in history, Petenkov's aging body could not withstand such a violent blow, and soon many problems appeared, and it was impossible to attend the meeting this time......

Pull it away, take it back.

After chatting for a while, there was a sudden commotion in the auditorium, and the four of them looked up. Koch arrived. As the leader of the German medical community in this era, Koch's appearance was naturally very popular, and his appearance attracted many onlookers from doctors. And in addition to Kitasato Shibazaburo, the emir? Adolph? Behring followed him respectfully.

Behring in this world is far less beautiful than the other world.

Because of John's crossing, the "inventor" of diphtheria antitoxin serum was changed, and Ehrlich, who had suffered a big loss in cooperation with Behring, also gained great prestige and benefits because of John's "generosity". In contrast, although Behring is also conducting relevant research, but step by step, the patents have been registered by John, and without the help of Ehrlich, he does not know how to purify these serums, and there is no way to talk about building a factory to produce and sell anything.

But on the good side, it avoided a face-to-face with Koch.

Originally, because of the invention of antitoxin serum, Behring, who had the patent in hand, was full of confidence, and for the sake of profit, he not only turned against his "brothers" Kitasato and Ehrlich, but also parted ways with "mentor" Koch in the end. In order to settle him, the Prussian Ministry of Culture had to find him a professor of hygiene at another university. Now that there are no patents as capital, and of course, more importantly, there is no major discovery in the field of antitoxin serum, and Behring does not have the courage to turn against Koch......

Calmly dealing with the doctors who came forward to talk, Koch looked around, and soon found John who was with Bergman, and immediately walked over with his eyes lit up: "Hi John, good morning." ”

"Good morning, Professor!"

John, of course, greeted him with a smile and greeted him respectfully.

Bergman and Koch are also old acquaintances, and after everyone greeted each other, Koch said with a smile: "John, I've been looking forward to your report this afternoon for a long time!" I believe that cholera should be the most important part, right? ”

When talking about this topic, Koch's eyes also flashed with satisfaction.

In the past six months, with the theories and methods provided by John, Koch has defeated the toxin faction represented by Petenkov, which can be said to be a complete victory, and at the same time won a huge honor for himself again. Don't think that John will monopolize all the credit by proposing theories, and don't forget that many of his methods were based on Koch's theories. In other words, Koch is the real pioneer, and John is the one who carries it forward.

At least in Germany, that's what both the official and the newspapers advertise.

So seriously, after the cholera epidemic was brought under control, Koch was the biggest beneficiary. John never had any opinion on this, and since his return to Berlin he has kept a very low profile, turning down most of the visitors except for a few acquaintances, making it clear that he wants to give credit to Koch......

"No, no, that's not going to happen!"

Smiling slightly, John shook his head and said, "I think you and Mr. Kitasato, including Mr. Ehrlich, have more say than me, right?" In fact, I have only summarized and expanded your theory, and the specific efforts have been made by a few of you, so no matter how you look at it, it is up to you to talk about cholera! ”

What I just said is definitely John's heart.

Since crossing into this era, John has never resisted using knowledge beyond his time to grab wealth and prestige, whether it is the invention of the bicycle, the tungsten light bulb, or several later medicines, but in the face of the medical giants of this era, he will at least maintain his due respect! Whether it is Bergman or Bilrot, or Liszt, Pasteur and Koch, they are all medical giants who hung on the walls of teaching buildings when John was in college in his last life, and the knowledge he learned was pioneered by these people, so what qualifications can he take credit?

The most significant discovery in medicine over the past year has undoubtedly been the solution to cholera.

In the original history, Koch was originally one of the authorities on cholera, and theories such as the spread of cholera were also proposed and promoted by him, so no matter from which point of view, John felt that Koch was the best candidate!

"Huh."

Hearing John's words, several people around him chuckled and nodded secretly. Young, capable, courageous, and knows how to advance and retreat, this young man is becoming more and more likeable......

Unaware that his thoughts were being misunderstood, John was just about to say something more, when suddenly he heard three thuds on the rostrum, and then a deep voice came: "Gentlemen, please be quiet, return to your seats, our meeting is about to begin......
