Mayor Kevin originally wanted to drive his wife there, but after exploring the road along the road, he gave up.

Because, not only are there all kinds of gravel and broken trees on the road, but in the distance, in the direction of Houston, there is also a landslide, and a section of the road is blocked.

Fortunately, although his wife's breath of life is weak, she has been living tenaciously, which can be regarded as weak and stable. So Mayor Kevin patiently stayed up until the communication was restored.

After arriving at Houston Methodist Hospital, a senior expert received the consultation, and Mayor Kevin handed the simple medical record summary and operation report written by Zhou Qiao to the expert.

Because of what he said, he may not be very clear, so it is convenient to directly use Zhou Qiao's medical record summary.

When the expert saw it, his face changed dramatically, and he didn't have time to take a closer look, so he immediately sent Tracy McKina to the intensive care unit to arrange further detailed examinations.

Let's save my life first!

Because in the medical record, there are too few examinations, and the condition is too complicated and complicated!

Preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, diabetes mellitus, complete placenta previa, massive hemorrhage of the hepatic capsule, cesarean section, surgical hepatectomy...... Approximately 2,000 ml of old noncoagulant blood was also found in the abdominal cavity during the operation......

The first four illnesses were detected by Tracy during the previous prenatal check-up in this hospital, and they were known by checking it on the computer, so there is no need to suspect it.

As for the back, the expert was greatly shocked!

From the existing conditions or information, you can deduce the degree of danger of the surgery at that time!

In such a small rural clinic, with two ordinary doctors, and a lack of various preoperative examination and rescue equipment, the mortality rate is as high as 99.9999%, which is not an exaggeration!

"It's really not easy for your wife to survive until now, but coming to us is naturally the best treatment service. Don't worry, I will immediately convene multidisciplinary experts for a detailed consultation and formulate more complete and scientific rescue measures! ”

The expert said he would do it and immediately called the expert team. These include obstetrics, hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, surgical intensive care units, and blood transfusions, among others. Although the baby has been born, the quality of the procedure for caesarean section needs to be assessed.

As for the little baby who weighs more than three pounds, he was arranged in the neonatal department and slept in an incubator for nursing treatment.

The baby is also pitiful, since birth, he has never slept next to his mother, and he has not even tasted a mouthful of breast milk.

The neonatal incubator is composed of a crib, a computer control instrument, an incubator chassis, a blue light illuminated lamp, a pulse oximeter, a temperature sensor, etc. Its function is mainly to provide a simulated uterine cavity environment for newborns, which can be placed in newborns and convenient for care.

The temperature and humidity in the box are more suitable for the baby, and can be used for constant temperature culture, asphyxia resuscitation, blue light irradiation, infusion, oxygen therapy, rescue, observation of vital signs and so on.

Houston Methodist Hospital is a very good general hospital, ranked No. 1 in Texas for many years, located in the prestigious Texas Medical Center.

This center brings together more than 50 international medical and health institutions, such as the famous MD Anderson Cancer Research Center, Texas Children's Hospital and other specialized hospitals, all of which are "golden signboards", which can be said to be a holy city in the minds of medical workers!

Houston is the fourth largest city in the United States and the largest economic center on the Gulf Coast, with three pillars of industry: energy, aerospace and healthcare!

The main contributor to the medical care in it is the Texas Medical Center, which drives more than $14 billion in related economic benefits every year!

After a comprehensive examination, treatment and assessment of Tracy's condition, a multidisciplinary expert consultation team from such a large hospital stunned everyone who attended!

Because the operation was done so well, I never expected that such a difficult major operation could be performed in a small town clinic with such a lack of surgical conditions!

And the quality and results of the surgery are quite good! Perfect, impeccable!

Whether it is a cesarean section, or a subsequent liver resection hemostatic surgical rescue operation!

"It's an absolute medical miracle!"

"Yes, even if we are here, with four or five senior experts joining forces, all kinds of supporting equipment and rescue measures, it is estimated that the best result is the current situation!"

"Oh my God, the little clinic in the country, it's incredible!"

"I heard that the chief surgeon is a young Chinese doctor, and the assistant is an old doctor who has hardly done surgery above the second level in a small rural clinic."

"What's that Chinese doctor's name?"

"I don't know."

"Hurry up and ask, this is definitely a medical genius!"

Soon, they found out from Mayor Kevin, it turned out that the other party's name was Zhou Qiao, who opened a private clinic in San Francisco, and was only 24 years old!

I heard that it is also famous in California. For this, experts have no doubt that such a powerful surgical genius would be strange if he was not famous!

After hearing about it, the director of the obstetrics department and hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery of this hospital couldn't help but think of recruiting talents, and asked for Zhou Qiao's contact information from Mayor Kevin, sent a special person to call to greet him, and expressed his intention.

Zhou Qiao was riding on the roof of the stable, building the roof of the stable with Luo Ya, nailing nails, after receiving the call, he first expressed his gratitude, and then said that he inherited his aunt's clinic, and he lived well in California, and this time he came for a vacation, and would not consider moving to Texas to work and settle down.

The other party had to regretfully say that if there is an opportunity in the future, they will cooperate and exchange.

Zhou Qiao's name is also the second time that he has entered the field of vision of a big hospital.

The first was Dr. Claudeford at the UCSF Medical Center.

After just one day of intensive care, Tracy McKeina's condition improved significantly and he was transferred to a general ward.

The first thing she did when she woke up was to see her baby.

Mayor Kevin told her that the baby is currently in the incubator in the neonatal department, and the doctor said that he will stay for more than half a month, and he is currently in good condition, so she should not worry too much.

"Kevin, what happened after the hurricane? Not long after you carried me into the consultation room, I felt delirious, and I can't remember what happened next! Tracy said with some embarrassment.

Mayor Kevin held his wife's hand and began to tell gently, of course, he is not a professional and has not witnessed the operation, but even so, the experience he told is touching, and people can't help but be scared!

"I can't imagine that I'm so dangerous, isn't this the equivalent of going to the Grim Reaper? Hehe," Tracy smiled weakly, rested for a moment, and continued, "I must thank Dr. Chow for a moment!" ”

"Uh-huh, me too. I think this should be the best gift God has given us this year. ”

The two looked up at the TV in the ward, and saw that the news was playing on the TV: "Category 2 Hurricane 'Tyranny' made landfall from Freeport the day before yesterday, the wind speed once exceeded 100 miles per hour, Houston was also affected, more than 453,000 homes and businesses lost power, at present, the hurricane weakened to a level 1 after moving inland, but the damage everywhere is still serious, the government is organizing disaster relief, Freeport and Erlot are the most severely affected, 5 people are missing, and no ......bodies have been found so far."

Watching the news on TV, Mayor Kevin and his wife have a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster!

Mayor Kevin sat on his wife's bedside, stroked his wife's face, and then leaned over and kissed her forehead: "Baby, I've made a decision, I promise you that I will sell the town as soon as possible and move to Houston." ”

"Well," Tracy immediately smiled happily, if you move to Houston, it will be much more convenient in the future, not to mention that the baby will be able to go to a better school in the future, enjoy better medical care, education and other resources.

"How much do you think should be sold?" Mayor Kevin asks his wife.

After all, his wife is the "big housekeeper" and "financial officer" in the town, and every account in the family has to go through his wife.

Tracy closed his eyes and thought about it, then opened it again: "Let's price 3 million Daole first, if someone bargains, the minimum must not be less than 2.6 million, and if it is less, it will not be cost-effective!" ”

"Uh-huh, baby, okay, I'll tweet the sale information right away, and then look for other channels, baby, don't worry, our Ellot town is still quite good, with beautiful scenery and rich natural resources, it will definitely be sold for a good price!" Mayor Kevin comforts his wife.

After a while, Tracy's sister and brother-in-law arrived and were pleasantly surprised, and congratulated them on the safety of their mother and son.

Later, Tracy's parents also came. It's just that Mayor Kevin's side has no relatives alive, only a distant cousin, who went to settle in Australia and has not been in touch for many years.

Mayor Kevin entrusted his father-in-law and mother-in-law to take care of his wife and baby, and he borrowed his brother-in-law's car to go back to thank Zhou Qiao and Paul.

Because, I was too anxious when I was in the town before, and then I left in a hurry when communication was restored, and now I think about it, and he hasn't paid for such a major operation!

Such a great life-saving grace, I have to give 300,000 US dollars. He felt that he could not be less.

This number, he naturally discussed with his wife. Tracy agreed, and asked Kevin to convey his thanks on his behalf.

In addition, Tracy is willing to pay 30,000 yuan from her manuscript fee, which is a little bit of his own heart.

That's right, Tracy McKina is a writer, and although he is not well-known for the time being, he has published several books, and he is actually quite popular in Texas.

Since three books were published before marriage, without a pen name, directly using a real name, and various contact information such as the original name also displayed on the mailbox, the name was not changed after marriage.

Otherwise, it will affect the popularity and recognition that it has gathered so hard before.

In the United States, it is a traditional custom for a woman to take the man's surname after marriage, and it is not legally mandatory. There are also many people who do not change their names after marriage. But in daily cases, it is named Mrs. or Mrs. so-and-so.

In addition, it may also be related to the death of Kevin's parents. Because of the husband's surname, the big family is often more particular, and the elders in the family will mind more.

Since the great-grandfather of Kevin's family, they have paid great attention to inheritance, accumulating from generation to generation, and when it came to Kevin's father's generation, they finally completely owned the town of Ellot.

However, what the ancestors of the Kevin family didn't expect was that in Kevin's generation, they would be so defeated that they would pack the town for sale! If there is a spirit underground, you must not crawl out of the ground and teach this loser a hard lesson!

After her husband left, Tracy closed her eyes and lay on the hospital bed to rest, but a strong thought suddenly appeared in her heart, that is, she wanted to write her experience of walking around the temple of death this time into herself!

In the future, after her physical recovery, she also wants to take the time to interview Zhou Qiao to learn about his life, and if Dr. Zhou agrees, she wants to write a biography of Dr. Zhou to express her gratitude.

In addition to publishing, maybe it can also be adapted for film and television.

……

After emergency repairs, the highway was basically passable, and Mayor Kevin drove back to the small town of Ellot.

He took a check for 300,000 Daole and went to the Lilac Clinic to find Zhou Qiao and Uncle Luo Ya.

As a result, Uncle Luo Ya said that Zhou Qiao was not here and had returned to the countryside.

In addition, Uncle Luo Ya resolutely refused to accept the money, saying that it was all the credit of Dr. Zhou, and he would give him the money.

After asking for the address, Mayor Kevin drove to Grandma Loya's house.

Luo Ya and Zhou Qiao have already repaired the stables and cattle pens, and have also built chicken and duck houses, and are now milking the cows together!

Zhou Qiao had never squeezed before, and it felt particularly novel, so Luo Ya asked him to drink while squeezing.

Zhou Qiao: "......" how does it feel that Luo Ya is teasing him?

Then, I saw Mayor Kevin coming.

"Hey, Mayor Kevin, how are your lady and baby doing?" Zhou Qiao waved his hand and said hello.

Luo Ya also nodded.

Mayor Kevin smiled: "They are all safe now, and they are currently hospitalized at Houston Methodist Hospital, and I have come to thank you this time!" What if I didn't know what to do without you? ”

Looking back, I have palpitations, if it weren't for Zhou Qiao, it is estimated that he would now face the tragic fate of one corpse and two lives! may still be immersed in grief, and the funeral is not prepared.

So he took out the check for 300,000 Daole, held it in both hands, and respectfully handed it to Zhou Qiao.

"This is the honorarium for saving lives last time, I am really really very grateful, my wife and I are very lucky, it is our eternal honor to have your help from Dr. Zhou!" Mayor Kevin said from the bottom of his heart.

Seeing that there was a reward of 300,000 Dao Le, Zhou Qiao was stunned, he didn't think about asking for so much money when he saved people! Also, this money should go to the clinic, right? After all, Luo Ya's uncle and aunt also helped.

The operating room is also the venue of Uncle Loya's house. He came here to fly knives, and he just collected some expert fees for flying knives.

As if he had guessed Zhou Qiao's thoughts, Mayor Kevin said very sincerely: "You must accept this check for 300,000 Dao Le, Doctor Zhou!" In addition, on Paul's side, I also prepared a thank-you gift of 20,000 Dao Le. It's all Tracy and I need, and if you don't take it, Tracy will blame me! ”

"Also, I have consulted with Dr. Paul, and he thinks that you should take it as well."

Zhou Qiao looked at Luo Ya, Luo Ya smiled and said, "My uncle will definitely not ask for this 300,000." ”

After all, the main force is Zhou Qiao, and her uncle is just a handsetter. How embarrassed to ask?

Under the insistence and persuasion of Mayor Kevin, Zhou Qiao had no choice but to accept it disrespectfully.

Garnett brought two geese over, and his goose shed collapsed, and the geese suffered heavy casualties, and they couldn't eat them all, so he brought two of them and came over to give them to Grandma Loya.

Seeing Mayor Kevin, Garnett's eyes lit up and he couldn't help asking, "Mayor Kevin, I saw the information you posted on Twitter, do you really want to sell this town?" ”

Mayor Kevin sighed and said, "Yes, although I am also very reluctant. But this time my wife's incident made me make up my mind. ”

"What, Garnett, do you want to buy it?" Mayor Kevin asked.

Garnett shook his head and said, "I want to buy it, but I don't have that much money!" ”

Luo Ya's eyes lit up and asked, "Mayor Kevin, how much does your town cost?" ”

She didn't follow Mayor Kevin's Twitter account, so she didn't see the message.

Mayor Kevin's eyes also lit up, and he looked at Luo Ya: "Noble Lady Inspector, do you want to buy it?" Only 3 million Dao Le! ”

Luo Ya nodded, "Yes." ”

These days, she and Zhou Qiao have been around the town, inside and out, and she has lived here before. There is a certain sense of belonging and nostalgia for this place.

The natural resources and scenery of the town are still good, and there is a lot to be done in developing it into a tourist attraction. Of course, if you want to develop it, you have to invest and publicize it.

3 million Dao Le, to be honest, is nothing to her now. Behind the scenes, there is still a huge force on the 18th Street.

Now, of course, it's called the Violent Queen Organization!

She used to have a luxurious big bed, which cost five or six million US dollars, which is more than ten times more expensive than the bed of Big S's family! Isn't it more than enough to buy a town like this?

Mayor Kevin didn't expect Luo Ya to agree so quickly, he was stunned immediately, then glanced at Zhou Qiao, nodded apologetically, and said, "Let me discuss it with my wife!" ”

Then, I went to call.

Soon, he came back happily, and Chong Luoya said: "My wife agrees, the price is reduced to 2 million, I don't know what the noble Ms. Luoya wants?" ”

Loya shrugged: "I don't care. "She never likes to haggle unless it's too outrageous.

However, this town's 3 million Daole is still worth it, and it is rare that the other party is willing to take the initiative to reduce the price, which is the icing on the cake!

Mayor Kevin hurriedly said, "Then please Ms. Luo Ya and Doctor Zhou, let's go back to the town and discuss the details of the specific transaction?" ”

Luo Ya and Zhou Qiao glanced at each other, nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Then, Luo Ya and Zhou Qiao went to talk to their grandmother.

When my grandmother heard the news, she walked around excitedly, saying that she must go and sweep the old man's grave and put a bouquet of flowers to inform him of the good news.

Garnett was also very excited, dancing as if he was going to buy it.

Luo Ya smiled: "Grandma, the transaction procedures haven't started yet, and when we get this town completely, let's go and inform grandpa!" ”

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for your good news." Grandma Luo Ya was so relieved that she said that her precious granddaughter was finally out and was about to become the mayor of the town!

Although, the mayor of this kind of town may not have the same social status as the Los Angeles police commissioner.

The group drove back to town, and Garnett followed, sitting in Loya's car.

Loya joked, "Garnett, why don't I buy the town and elect you as mayor?" ”

In this kind of town, the election is a joke, because the whole town is owned by people, who else can be elected?

Unless it is the kind that is very unpopular with the people, but if it is very unpopular, the residents of the town will have run out long ago, and those who stay are naturally recognized.

Some town owners don't want to be the mayor of the town, and even elect their pet dog Big Golden Retriever as the mayor of the town, go out to the police car to pick up, and arrange two puppies of the opposite sex as assistants!

Some choose a few months-old baby to be the mayor, and some elect a parrot to be the mayor.

Like Kevin's family, starting from his great-grandfather, he has been the mayor of the town for generations!

By Kevin's generation, it's finally coming to an end!

Mayor Kevin has found a suitable buyer, and the whole person is relaxed, and he feels that he is about to usher in a new life!

Hearing Luo Ya's words, Garnett immediately became nervous, and quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, my character is not good for being the mayor of the town." ”

Luo Ya pondered, should she let her uncle be the mayor of the town?

Zhou Qiao's words, definitely not! She was reluctant to put Zhou Qiao in such a remote place. Besides, Zhou Qiao is definitely unwilling!

Actually, Zhou Qiao is quite excited, but he is really unwilling, he just thinks it is very interesting and worth looking forward to.

This is the impulse brought about by the real estate genes in the bones of Chinese.

Seeing Zhou Qiao's eyes flickering and seeming to be interested, Luo Ya said, "Why don't I buy you a small town in California?" There are also many small towns in California that are not expensive, and you can build Chinatown when the time comes. ”

Zhou Qiao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll still be my doctor!" ”

Because, having this idea, on a whim, is not surprising, but if he really settles down to run the town, become the mayor or something, he thinks, it is not annoying. And the small towns in the United States, what they are willing to sell, are the kind of people who have a very small population and little development potential.

Like Ellot's, it's relatively good.

There are some of them, which can be called "ghost towns", and some people can't sell them, so they have to be mayors in them for the rest of their lives!

Kevin's efficiency is very high, and Luoya's efficiency is also very high, no more than three days, and all the formalities are completed.

However, to everyone's surprise, Luo Ya did not want this town, but transferred it directly to her uncle's name!

The news spread, and the town was in an uproar.

For Luo Ya's magnanimity and the luck of Luo Ya's uncle's family, the residents of the town were envious and came to congratulate them!

The Lilac Clinic suddenly became the lively center of the town.

When Uncle Luo Ya heard the news, he was stunned!

Uncle Luoya is still fine, and her aunt is simply ...... Hard to describe!

Thanks to the "brave little fat" for the tip.

6000 word chapter. Wait a little later to add more to the 1000 monthly pass.
