Chapter 437 Climbing the Stairs
As he was speaking, Xia Yan and Dr. Sang came out of the building.
The murmurs in the crowd died down in anticipation of what would happen next.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. The floor information has been arranged. Next, we will start assigning work and allocating patients to wards."
Dr. Sang took the staff list from the head nurse and started with the nurses.
Since receiving the news that the hospital was about to be built, all the doctors and nurses in the simple hospital worked overtime to sort out all the work assignments and patient records overnight.
In fact, it didn't take a night. The simple hospital was so small that not many nurses were recruited. If it weren't for the expansion of the base and the surge in the number of survivors joining in, Dr. Sang would never have come up with the idea of opening a hospital on Lidai Island.
"The next person whose name I call, please remember your work floor."
"We are now arranging the patient's room. The nurses on each floor are listening carefully to ensure everything is correct."
Dr. Sang raised his voice and read out the names on the list one by one.
Everyone present took action, gathering like a group of busy ants to receive the patients belonging to this floor.
As Dr. Sang announced the information, the patients who had been concerned about their condition looked at each other in confusion.
At this time, only some sick people and nurses were left at the scene. After delivering the equipment, the rest of the people ran back to the base and climbed onto the city wall to kill zombies.
"Doctor Sang, you assigned me to the 6th floor. My leg is broken, so I might not be able to climb up."
"Me too. You just performed surgery on me. I can barely get out of bed. Even with three nurses, I'm afraid they can't carry me to the eighth floor."
Patients sitting in wheelchairs and lying down unable to move raised their heads, looking very embarrassed.
Even the nurses next to them had worried expressions on their faces, looking down at their two thin arms, not knowing what to do.
Someone suggested: "Why don't we wait until they come back and then move. There's no rush now. The sun is shining brightly. We can get some calcium in the sun."
"Yeah, yeah, you're all very tired after a busy day. The nurses can't move all these people. If they collapse from exhaustion, there's no one left to do the work."
Voices of comfort rang out one after another, trying to dispel Dr. Sang's immature ideas.
Doctor Sang was unable to respond and smiled helplessly at Xia Yan, "It's all good intentions."
Xia Yan nodded: "Indeed, I'm worried that you will be tired."
When the noise died down a bit, Xia Yan said, "Don't worry, everyone. There are five elevators in each building, and they are all powered. You don't have to climb the stairs to go upstairs."
Everyone fell silent and looked at her.
Xia Yan seemed to hear the violent heartbeat in his chest.
Doctor Sang smiled at them, a rare sight. His tone was filled with emotion and excitement. "Yes, Boss Xia is right. The entire building has water and electricity! In a few days, once all the medical equipment is in place, everyone can have a systematic full-body checkup! Now, please go upstairs."
The nurses, who had just woken up from a dream, could not hide their smiles. I don't know if it was because they didn't have to help the patients climb the stairs, or because of the good news that water and electricity were available. They just smiled and pushed the patients inside.
When they passed by Xia Yan, they blinked their eyes shyly, feeling happier than if they had eaten candy.
The patients, on the other hand, had a lot to say, giving thumbs up and praising the place again and again, especially after they stepped through the door and saw the clean, tidy and well-presented interior environment, they kept exclaiming in surprise.
I just wonder if they will still scream after seeing every empty room, Xia Yan thought.
The three newly built buildings on Lidai Island are very conspicuous, especially the three big red crosses on the roof. Anyone with a little common sense will know that this is a hospital.
While Dr. Sang was busy arranging patients, a number of customers who came to watch the excitement gradually gathered at the hospital entrance.
Xia Yan stood tall and could see the man in black wearing a black robe at a glance.
She waved, unsure if they could see.
Many people in the crowd knew her and thought she was greeting them, so they waved back even more vigorously in ecstasy.
"Boss Xia, is the hospital open for treatment now?" someone shouted from a distance.
"Not at this time, borrow it."
A large hand grabbed his shoulders from behind and gently moved him aside.
It’s Chu Wanfu.
Zhang Yaya and others hurriedly followed him and squeezed out of the crowded crowd.
Chu Wanfu looked back at him, not knowing whether he recognized him or not. In any case, he ignored them and let them borrow his light.
"Have you dealt with the zombies?" Xia Yan asked when he approached.
"It's almost finished," Chu Wanfu looked around, "The construction is going pretty fast."
It will be fine if he doesn't notice anything at all.
Xia Yan pretended not to understand, "It's my duty."
"...I'll go in and take a look." Chu Wanfu was actually in a good mood. Not only was the hospital built, but there were also a lot of 'takeout' orders coming in. All in all, it was free.
Only after he left did Zhang Yaya dare to come up.
Xia Yan looked at his timid appearance and couldn't associate it with his rough, smoky voice.
"Are you planning to be hospitalized?" she asked.
"Is it okay? Our injuries are not a big deal." Zhang Yaya hesitated and doubted.
Compared to others who are missing limbs or are too weak to stand up, they can walk and run, and always feel that hospitalization is a waste of resources.
At this time, the man in black standing next to him reached out and pulled, and the round black cloth was thrown back, and Zhang Yaya immediately changed his words.
"Then stay."
Xia Yan: "Go in and see Dr. Sang directly. She will arrange a ward for you."
After saying this, she suddenly felt like an NPC...
Now the hospital has been handed over to Dr. Sang, and what happens next has nothing to do with her. She can just go about delivering the goods.
...
The smile on Chu Wanfu's face suddenly disappeared.
The subordinate behind him stepped out and asked in surprise, "Why is there nothing in the room?"
The subordinate caught a glimpse of Chu Wanfu's unhappy expression, suddenly shut his mouth, and retreated to the back to act as a wall panel.
Chu Wanfu looked at three rooms in a row, then stopped and walked back.
"Go back to the base and ask someone to move the equipment."
The price is low, the rent is cheap! What else do you need bicycles for? They are just supplies, and he has plenty of them in his warehouse.
Outside the building, Xia Yan's slim figure walked slowly out and gradually disappeared in the crowd.
Only then did Chu Wanfu believe that she didn't care whether the hospital was opened in Lida Island or not. It was just like renting a shop to do business, except that the area he rented was a little larger. In her opinion, the essence was the same.
He looked at the things scattered on the lawn and was about to ask someone to move them when he heard footsteps behind him.
It turned out to be former medical personnel who had been recruited to help.
"General Chu, General Chu, we have finished our work and arranged for the patients. If there is nothing else, we will leave first."
The scale of the three buildings flashed through Chu Wanfu's mind. If it were built according to the standards of previous hospitals, it would require a lot of staff.
"Have you received the official assignments?"
"Not yet, I can't get a number."
"Well, come to work at the hospital. We are short of staff."
