The lotus pond is very beautiful, and Talia is even more beautiful!

Talia was nervous when tourists passed by, but she soon relaxed. Because, Zhou Qiao stopped.

The front windshield of the car is not filmed, and Zhou Qiao is actually more faceless than Taria.

"Let's get out of the car and take a walk." Talia chuckled, full of amorous feelings.

It's just that when she got out of the car, she stumbled and almost fell, because her legs were a little weak.

Zhou Qiao smiled and hugged her in time.

"Doctor Zhou is so evil!" Talia feigned resentment.

If Dr. Zhou wasn't good at tossing, how could her legs be so soft?

There are many wild ducks playing in the lotus pond, and the two of them are holding hands, walking intimately by the pond.

In addition to several beautiful ponds, the park is full of greenery, a zoo, a golf course, an amusement park, a picnic area, and much more.

Also, there are many places where parking is available.

Zhou Qiao couldn't help but sigh, fewer people are better.

If it's in the country, it's not crowded. As for the car driving in? That's even more unlikely!

Passing a lotus pond, they saw another field of sunflowers. In June, the sunflowers here have already grown buds, and many have begun to bloom.

It's still not the time, if you wait until July and August, when the big patches are in full bloom, it is estimated that there is a beautiful scenery and a sea of flowers here.

There were some beauties taking pictures in the sunflower fields, and Zhou Qiao let Talia in and also helped her take several photos.

They then walked along the riverfront to Sacramento's Old Town, a riverside historic district with cobblestone streets lined with buildings from the Gold Rush era dating back more than 150 years, old railroad tracks and a railway museum.

Talia isn't a vase, she's also very knowledgeable, making a cameo appearance as a beautiful tour guide, explaining the history of the area, the old trains, and the origins of California's capital as she walks.

In fact, when California was founded, the legal capital was the coastal city of Monterrey (1774-1849). Monterrey has been the capital of California since the time of Spanish colonization, Mexican rule, and the Republic of California.

Later, it moved to San Jose, the center of what is now Silicon Valley. Because San Jose was one of the few cities in California at the time. (1849-1851)

After that, I went to the small city of Vallejo, but this city was the capital of California for only two weeks, and then I went to Benicia, which is also a small coastal city. Vallejo and Benicia are particularly close and close to each other.

It lasted for about a year in Benicia, and then "moved the capital".

Later, in 1854, he finally settled in Sacramento, one of the few cities at that time.

Until today.

However, during 1862, the state capital of California was temporarily relocated to San Francisco for a period of time due to flooding.

It is worth mentioning that gold of high purity has also been found in the Sacramento River, and it has experienced a gold rush, otherwise it would not have the name "Second Port".

As for now, the river has long been cleaned, and it is impossible to find any more gold.

At that time, Sacramento was chosen because the city immigrants came very early, compared with other temporary capital locations, there were many people settled here, the economy was developed, the industry was thriving, the whole city was well planned, and it was not a seaside city that would not be in danger of being invaded, and the big river in the city could go directly to the Bay Area, making the city a land and water city.

As for Los Angeles and San Diego, they were never considered because of their proximity to Mexico. It is impossible to build the state capital on the border.

I have to say that Zhu Di's "Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in Sheji" is extremely courageous.

Of course, most major cities in the United States are not capitals.

Zhou Qiao and Talia took a lot of beautiful photos in the old town of Sacramento. As for the most famous local landmark, the glittering Golden Tower Bridge, it is natural that they have also left their footprints.

The bridge is a lift bridge spanning the Sacramendu River, with a total length of 737 feet, a width of 52 feet, and a height of 160 feet, and was opened in December 1935.

Standing on the bridge, you can see many restaurants on this side of the old town, as well as the riverside park on the other side, and on the sparkling river, there are many people playing jet skis and driving small boats.

Zhou Qiao likes rafting, so he also rented a dinghy and drifted with Talia on the river.

When Zhou Qiao and Talia were tossing and turning on the boat, Taria's phone rang again.

Taria: "...... Oh my God, is God keeping an eye on me? When it comes to the critical moment, call ......"

However, she had to take it because it was her mother who called.

"Mom, is there something wrong?" Talia took a deep breath, calmed her rapid gasps, and asked softly.

"Dear little baby, something big has happened, the medical staff in the hospital have run out, and now we patients and families are left inside." Taria's mother said worriedly.

The patient is in the hospital, and the doctors and nurses are gone. It's just sad to die!

"Running out?" Talia was also stunned, and then looked at Zhou Qiao.

"Mom, don't worry, Doctor Zhou and I will go over immediately." Talia hung up the phone, shrugged helplessly at Zhou Qiao, wrapped her jade arm around him, and whispered in his ear, "Honey, let's find another time, I must, I must...... Let you be satisfied. ”

Zhou Qiao: "It's okay, your grandfather's condition is important." He jumped up, but quickly crouched down again, for the tent was particularly conspicuous.

Talia laughed.

Zhou Qiao pondered for a moment and said, "I'll call Dr. Victoria Fevis and ask about the situation." ”

"Hmm." Talia chuckled as she straightened her clothes, and was generally happy today, but the critical moment was interrupted.

However, no matter what happens in the hospital, her grandfather's condition has now stabilized, and Zhou Qiao personally went over to take charge, so the probability of problems is not high.

Soon, Zhou Qiao ended the call with Dr. Victoria Fevis, looking shocked.

"What's wrong?" Talia asked.

Zhou Qiao took a few seconds to calm himself down, and then said leisurely: "Dr. Victoria Fervis is very busy right now, and she is organizing a strike with her colleagues!" ”

"Strike?" Talia was also shocked, "What about so many patients in the hospital?" ”

"What else can I do? Let the top management of Kaiser Medical Group have a headache. Zhou Qiao also felt very helpless, but this is not his hospital, and it is not his motherland, others are soft-spoken, what can be done?

Besides, there is a reason why the medical staff are on strike, not for no reason.

I can only say that I went to the hospital for free to help and solve the needs of Grandpa Talia and some patients in the surrounding wards. No matter how much he wants, he can't do anything about it.

"Then let's hurry up." Talia was really speechless, and said in her heart, fortunately she had Joe with her this time. It's just that...... I haven't been able to give myself to him completely, and every time I have to go to the base, all kinds of things happen, and I feel sorry for Joe.

It's just bad luck.

It didn't take long for Zhou Qiao and Talia to arrive at the neurology ward at Kaiser Medical Center, and because Dr. Victoria Ferves was a cardiothoracic surgeon, she was not in charge of it.

Zhou Qiao couldn't find an acquaintance here, so he had to get started by himself.

And then the news from Dr. Victoria Fervis shocked him even more.

Because, this strike, not only Sacramento, but almost all hospitals and clinics under the Caesars Medical Group have started strike action one after another.

The first people to pick on the fire were the radiologists who asked Zhou Qiao and Dr. Victoria Fervis to examine Talya's grandfather last night.

Zhou Qiao: "......" is really none of my business, how did I know that this would happen?

Dr. Victoria Ferves comforted: "Dr. Zhou, this has nothing to do with Lingzhen, don't have too much pressure. In fact, we are already overwhelmed. The point is, the salary is not high yet! ”

Zhou Qiao: "......"

Dr. Victoria Ferves said that the number of people who participated in the strike, according to incomplete statistics, is 70,000 or 80,000, and it is estimated that more and more people will join in.

Especially the doctors and nurses at the bottom, the crowd is surging. Things are snowballing, and they are getting bigger and bigger.

At the same time, many news outlets began to report that even Governor Hulk was alarmed and came out in person to suppress the scene.

But Governor Hulk thought about it and could only put pressure on the top management of Caesars Medical Group to negotiate with employee representatives as soon as possible to resolve this "conflict".

In fact, it's not just California that's having a headache, it's also Colorado, Oregon, and Washington, among others.

According to medical representatives, it will last at least three days!

In three days, the hospital was closed!

In response, Caesars Medical said, "Our top priority is to ensure that the urgent needs of our members and patients are given the highest priority. ”

Kaiser Medical provided patients with urgent notification of the expected temporary closure, including pharmacies, non-inpatient surgery centers and services at more than two dozen other locations.

In order to minimize the impact on patients, Kaiser Medical had to urgently recruit temporary workers to fill some of the vacancies, but would still postpone appointments and direct some patients to other pharmacies if necessary.

After all, Caesars Medical Group has more than 200,000 people, and it can barely turn around at present. However, with nearly a third of the people on strike, the pressure on those on duty is even greater.

Some strikers told reporters that their wages were too low and they were overworked.

A nurse told AFP: "The soaring cost of living in California has made life extremely difficult. We can't help it. Caesars Medical Group reports billions of dollars in profits, so we are asking Caesars Medical Group CEOs to share those profits with frontline employees. ”

"What we are asking for is a fair contract so that we can live. In addition, I am also worried that if this situation continues in the long run, there will be a shortage of manpower, which will be very detrimental to patients. ”

"Working in a 12-hour shift, one nurse looking after 26 patients is not ideal, and it's not safe for nurses to work with so many patients."
