Chapter 90 The Village Has Electricity
Ye Qing thought it would take some time to convince the Liu family, but unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the three Liu siblings immediately nodded in agreement.
In fact, at this point, there is no point in gambling. If Ye Qing doesn't help, other hospitals won't take the case. I estimate that the old man will pass away in a few days.
There are very few people like Ye Qing who dare to make such a boast and say that they are willing to take a gamble, so even if it is a last-ditch effort, the Liu brothers and sisters must give it a try at this last moment!
Before this, the Liu siblings still had differences of opinion, mainly due to Liu Dan's opposition and obstruction, but just now, Ye Qing had completely convinced Liu Dan with his unique flying needle skills.
Seeing Ye Qing's eyes full of confidence and calmness, Liu Dan knew in her heart that if there was anyone in this world who could really snatch someone away from Master Yan Luo, that person would probably only be Doctor Ye standing in front of Miman.
"Doctor Ye, let's bet! We're willing to bet!"
"Just make your arrangements. We three brothers and sisters will fully cooperate with you and will not have any objections!"
Liu Lin immediately patted Ye Qing's chest and assured him.
But Liu Lin's assurance was useless. Ye Qing looked directly at Liu Dan:
"If I were to take over, I would have to be upfront about my ugly words."
"The surgery is necessary. If these chronic diseases are not treated in time, no matter how good the treatment methods and medicines are, they will be useless. The 300-year-old mountain ginseng is just a waste of nature's gift."
"But once the operation is performed, the old man will definitely suffer. After all, there are not just one or two shrapnels hidden in his body, but more than a dozen in total. It is definitely impossible to remove them all at once. How to perform the operation and how many times to perform it, the specific plan may require me to go back and discuss with Dean Gu and other surgeons before we can finalize it."
"In addition, there is one most important point that I must emphasize: I cannot guarantee that the surgery will be 100% successful."
"As long as it's a surgery, there is a risk and probability of failure. I believe that doctors in other hospitals should have mentioned this to you during the years that my son has been receiving medical treatment."
"Especially since the shrapnel left in your grandfather's body is in a very special position, even the slightest mistake may result in the surgery not being able to proceed, so you and your family should be mentally prepared for this in advance."
"My flying needles can indeed play a certain auxiliary role in the surgical process and increase the success rate of the surgery, but even so, I cannot promise you that it will be 100% accurate."
"In clinical practice, the exact lesions in the patient's body are often not clearly visible until after surgery. It is also possible that the plan discussed before surgery cannot be implemented in practice, and the surgeon has to rely on his or her on-the-spot response and performance. This is unpredictable."
"So I can only say that I will try my best, but whether the old man's life can be saved depends on everyone's concerted efforts."
The reason why Ye Qing said this to Liu Dan was because Liu Dan had previously strongly expressed that he did not want his father to endure any more unnecessary suffering. If the operation failed after Ye Qing took over the patient, the pain the patient would suffer would likely be double or even multiple. If Liu Dan could not accept this, then Ye Qing could only say that he could do nothing to help.
Sure enough, after hearing Ye Qing say that he could not guarantee success, Liu Dan's expression instantly became hesitant. His gaze fell on his old father lying on the hospital bed, his eyes filled with worry and suspicion.
However, while Liu Dan was in great pain and had not yet made up his mind, Old Master Liu, who had listened to the entire conversation, raised his hand tremblingly, nodded towards Ye Qing again and again, and said in an extremely firm tone:
"Treat him, you must treat him! San... Sanni'er, we are not afraid of surgery! Your... your father is a Red Army soldier, what... what kind of suffering have you not endured?"
He had clearly been tortured beyond recognition by illness before this, and had clearly fallen into a coma before Ye Qing came, and was on the verge of death. But at this moment, the old man's eyes were firm, and even his intermittent tone revealed a fearless and strong willpower that made it hard not to be moved.
Liu Dan was about to shed tears again, but this was the first time in the past few months that her father expressed his thoughts to her so clearly and clearly. Her father strongly requested that the treatment continue. No matter how distressed Liu Dan was, she could not raise any objections. She could only hold her father's hand tightly, crying and nodding solemnly.
Since he needed treatment, there could be no more delay. At Ye Qing's request, Liu Lin reconnected with Dean Gu. After careful confirmation and consultation with Gu Changqing, not long after, the county hospital sent an ambulance to take Grandpa Liu back to the People's Hospital.
Ye Qing also went to the hospital with the patient. After reading Mr. Liu's previous examination reports, Ye Qing quickly determined the specific implementation plan for several operations.
After reading Ye Qing's proposal, Dean Gu's heart almost jumped out of his throat. He raised his head and confirmed again and again:
"Comrade Ye Qing, are you sure you want to take such a big risk?"
Ye Qing looked at Dean Gu: "What else? This old man's complications have seriously threatened his life. If he doesn't fight hard, who can guarantee that he can survive this winter? In such a life-threatening matter, if you don't succeed, you will die. Is it possible to avoid taking risks?"
These words left Gu Changqing completely speechless. He pursed his lips but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Ye Qing thought of the elderly people that Gu Changqing introduced to her when she was studying the case of He Lianshan's father. They were all veterans from several nearby counties and cities, and several of them were expert doctors with great achievements in surgery. The last time Ye Qing discussed experiences with those old men, they got along very well. So now that she encountered a difficult problem, she naturally thought of this group of old comrades again.
She immediately looked at Gu Changqing with a smile:
"Director, when we reached a cooperation agreement, you said that I would be your hospital's surgical technical consultant. That is to say, if I perform flying knife surgery in your hospital, the credit for the surgery will also be attributed to your People's Hospital, right? You certainly don't want me to make a mistake and cause the surgery to fail, right?"
Gu Changqing was frightened by Ye Qing's smile, and immediately had a bad feeling in his heart:
"What do you want to say?"
Ye Qing chuckled, leaned over the table and hooked his finger at the old dean:
"I just happen to need those old men I met at the Health Bureau last time. Can you find a way to call them to Jiaotan County to help?"
Gu Changqing almost vomited blood, stared at Ye Qing unhappily and said:
"What do you mean you can use them? Do you know where those people come from? What do you mean, you are planning to let those old guys help you? You really dare to think so!"
Ye Qing curled his lips in disapproval.
She didn't have the rule that seniors couldn't go to the battlefield. The older they were, the more likely they were to be captured and used as free cannon for her.
Uniting all available medical resources around you is the best skill of every evolved survivor of the apocalypse.
"Why not? Weren't they interested in my flying needles before? This time I gave them a chance to observe it up close, isn't this exactly what they wanted?"
"Besides, I have already agreed to invest in your technology. If it doesn't work out, you can use this flying needle technology as a bargaining chip and exchange resources with the hospitals in other counties and cities. After all, when it comes to training students, I don't dare to let go of one sheep, but I can let go of a flock of sheep. Even if you arrange a few more people, as long as their qualifications and talents meet my requirements, I won't mind a few more."
This reminded Dean Gu that Jiaotan County People's Hospital had always regarded its sister units in other counties and cities as resource competitors, and had been forming strong alliances with those other counties and cities by exchanging medical resources. Before this, he had never considered the possibility of such an operation!
His eyes suddenly widened, he sat up straight and looked at Ye Qing:
"Are you serious?"
Ye Qing spread his hands helplessly: "How can I joke with you about this? Just give them a call and tell them that the patient I'm treating this time has a very special condition. If it's successful, it will probably have a big impact in the industry and may even become a learning case for major hospitals. I'm currently short of two assistants to help me. Please ask those old masters if they are interested in helping me."
The corner of Gu Changqing's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but stretch out his finger and point at Ye Qing's forehead.
When he first met this girl in the county hospital, he thought she was quite arrogant. She performed an acute splenic rupture operation in the absence of the surgeon in charge, and recruited two inexperienced residents as assistants, and put together a makeshift team to complete the impossible operation.
This time Liu Yuanpeng's situation was even more serious. Others dared not get involved, but she took over this rotten stall as soon as she arrived. Not only did she plan to invite senior experts from other counties and cities to come for consultation, she also planned to trick those old guys into helping her for free.
The key point is that this girl dares to say anything. As soon as she opened her mouth, she even declared that she would make Liu Yuanpeng's case a classic case to be studied by major hospitals across the country. Her tone is really crazy!
"You've made a big show of letting my old guys carry the reins for you. If something goes wrong, it'll be hard to deal with. The brother units outside are watching us. If a medical accident happens, regardless of whether the Liu family blames you or not, the brother units around will definitely report it to the higher-ups. It's hard to say whether you'll be in trouble. As the dean, I'm sure you'll be punished. How confident are you in this matter?"
Gu Changqing must have admired Ye Qing's abilities, and he also liked this girl's quick and decisive work style. However, Liu Yuanpeng's situation was very complicated, and many people from all walks of life were paying attention to his condition. If successful, the county hospital would indeed become the biggest winner. But if it failed, the chain reaction it would bring might make him, as the dean, suffer the consequences.
Therefore, Gu Changqing still wanted to find out Ye Qing's bottom line, at least to find out whether she had any confidence in the surgical plan she was going to make. This was directly related to whether Gu Changqing would act according to Ye Qing's plan next.
Ye Qing must have been very sure to take on this problem. After all, she had supernatural powers. Although Mr. Liu's condition was a bit complicated, the main problem was still in the field of surgery. If she really tried her best, it would only be a matter of time to cure the old man's illness.
But she certainly couldn't say this too confidently, otherwise she would really bring bad luck upon herself. Many hospitals and doctors out there didn't dare to accept the call, as they all thought that Mr. Liu's condition was too serious and incurable. If she said she was 100% sure, wouldn't that be deliberately trying to stand out and attract jealousy?
So Ye Qing thought about it and gave an answer that she thought was not too outrageous:
"It's probably a 50-50 chance. The main reason is that the patient has a strong will to live, and the elderly man's children are very cooperative. These two points are very important. In addition, I use flying needles to assist, which can also have a certain buffering effect on the operation time and the patient's physical condition during the operation, so the success rate can be greatly improved."
Ye Qing's words were quite conservative, but to Dean Gu, a 50% success rate was already very high. To forcibly extend the life of a man whose half body was already buried was tantamount to defying fate and sounding like a fairy tale.
Dean Gu was not sure whether Ye Qing was bragging or not, but as Ye Qing said, if this matter did not succeed, they would die. If they really saved the person, then their Jiaotan County People's Hospital would really be ranked among the top medical institutions in the country.
One is that he may face punishment after failure, and the other is that if he succeeds, Jiaotan County will become famous. Gu Changqing is very clear about what to choose.
"I will try my best to coordinate for you, but I can't guarantee whether they will come or not. If they don't come to help you, you have to make relevant plans. You have to know how to complete the operation."
Ye Qing made an OK gesture to Gu Changqing.
The surgery department of Jiaotan County Hospital only has one chief, He Hai, who is highly skilled. However, He Hai had a conflict with Ye Qing before, and his character was also flawed. Therefore, Ye Qing dared not use him for such an important operation. What if this man took the opportunity to take revenge and secretly set a trap for her during the operation, causing an irreparable mistake? Ye Qing would not feel satisfied even if she killed He Hai.
Although it was a bit too dark to think this way, Ye Qing never hesitated to assume the worst about human nature. As long as there was a slight possibility, she would not take the risk.
After all, if a medical accident really happens, the doctor may at most no longer work in the medical profession, but for the patient it is a matter of life and death, and he or she may suffer a devastating disaster.
Considering that Grandpa Liu's condition was quite urgent, Ye Qing moved directly into the temporary dormitory arranged by the county hospital. In the next week, she would closely monitor the old man's preoperative condition, and at the same time hold consultations and discussions with the expert group who might come to discuss and revise the preliminary proposal she had formulated.
Ye Qing's flying needle skills had been demonstrated in public at He Lianshan's house last time, so when Gu Changqing made a phone call, the group of old men suddenly became interested when they heard that Ye Qing would perform the operation himself this time and would use flying needles as an auxiliary method during the operation. There was no need for Gu Changqing to persuade them, as they immediately rushed to Jiaotan County, and some even brought their families with them.
After seeing the condition of Grandpa Liu Yuanpeng, these old experts fell silent collectively. Especially after seeing Ye Qing's surgical plan proposal, everyone had the same idea as Gu Changqing, that is, this plan was too risky.
However, since Ye Qing could convince even Gu Changqing, he could naturally convince these real Western medicine doctors. In the following week, a group of old experts had countless consultations and carefully analyzed and studied the patient's various physical data. Finally, they had to admit that the surgical plan given by Ye Qing might be the only possible way to succeed. In other words, with Ye Qing's flying needle as a prerequisite, there might still be a glimmer of hope, but no one knew whether it would succeed or not.
Regardless of whether they have a bottom line or not, at this point, no one can back down.
The hospital had completed all preparations, and the patient's family was very enthusiastic, so a week later, Ye Qing took a few elderly assistants to the operating table and began to perform the first operation on Grandpa Liu Yuanpeng.
The Liu family sat outside the operating room, waiting for nearly five hours. During this time, only the operating nurses came in and out of the operating room, but they all had stern faces and didn't say a word, which made the Liu family anxious and tormented. When they waited behind, they were so nervous that their faces turned pale, fearing that a doctor would come out and tell them that they had done their best and asked them to mourn.
In the operating room, after Ye Qing took out the fourth shrapnel, she immediately made room for the other person. Without her command, someone else took over and did the final cleaning and suturing.
After all the work was completed, everyone leaned or sat nervously on the side, silently waiting for the anesthetic to wear off from the patient.
They waited until it was almost dark outside. The assistant nurse kept calling the old man, but got no response.
The old experts were so nervous that their hearts almost jumped into their throats. Ye Qing even began to consider whether to use extraordinary means to wake the patient up. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old man's fingers suddenly moved, and after a long while, he slowly opened his eyes.
After he opened his eyes and responded normally to external environmental stimuli, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and then a few old men couldn't help but give Ye Qing a thumbs up.
If these old men were still skeptical and thought Ye Qing was daydreaming when Ye Qing mentioned the plan before, after today's first operation, several old men understood why Ye Qing was so bold.
As the saying goes, a person with great skills is bold. This little girl is not very old, but she is indeed very skilled in surgery. No wonder she dared to take on such a difficult case as Liu Yuanpeng. Moreover, the first operation was performed on the four most difficult shrapnel areas on the patient's body, and she actually took them out successfully!
After watching the details of Ye Qing's operation techniques throughout the operation, several veteran experts couldn't help but sigh that this girl really has the confidence to be so arrogant!
When they were Ye Qing's age, they didn't even dare to touch a scalpel, but this girl has already become the chief surgeon in the operating room. How can the gap between people be so big?
By the time the patient was sent out of the operating room and into the intensive care unit, the Liu family was almost getting tired of waiting.
However, when they heard the doctor announce that four shrapnel had been successfully removed from the patient's body, and that they were the four shrapnel in the most intractable and troublesome locations, a group of Liu family members could not help but burst into tears outside the corridor.
After the first operation, the old man needed to rest for at least one month to make sure all his physical indicators were stable before he could proceed with the second operation. During this period, Ye Qing did not need to stay in the hospital, so after the patient had the operation, he observed him for two days to make sure that the patient was in good condition and there was nothing abnormal, and then Ye Qing returned to Kaoshantun.
The last time Ye Qing came to Jiaotan County, he came on Li Yong's tractor, but this time when Ye Qing went back, the Liu family directly used the transportation company's transport vehicle to escort him. In order to express their gratitude to Ye Qing, the Liu family was quite considerate. They got a batch of old second-hand medical equipment and drug resources from somewhere and directly sent them all to Kaoshantun Health Station using the county's transport vehicles.
When Ye Qing arrived in the village, he found that earth-shaking changes had taken place in the village.
Within a week, electric wires were laid throughout Kaoshan Village. From the beginning to the end of the village, every household had access to electricity, and almost every household used incandescent lamps. People no longer had to light the dark kerosene lamps the size of a bean when they got up at night.
Ye Qing's house was also installed with incandescent lamps. And unlike many other families who only installed a light bulb in the main room, although Ye Qing was not at home, the electrician who came to pull the wires may have received instructions from above and directly installed light bulbs in all three rooms of Ye Qing's house. In addition, a socket was specially installed in the main room for convenient use of electrical appliances.
With electricity, the black and white TV that was given to her as a reward from the provincial capital could naturally be put to use.
It just so happened that Ye Qing had received reward coupons from the province before, but she had never been able to redeem them for her TV, sewing machine, and watch. Taking advantage of the fact that the Liu family had arranged a transport to take her back to the village, she took the ride, used the three redemption coupons, and brought back the sewing machine and TV together.
As soon as this black-and-white TV appeared, it immediately broke the peace of Kaoshantun. After moving into the Zou family yard, the group of children who were petting wolves in Ye Qing's yard soon discovered this secret first.
Then, the children began to run around the village to tell others. In just a few hours, the Zou family's yard was packed with people. Everyone stretched their necks to look inside curiously, wanting to know what the TV looked like.
