Colonel Waldo Granma was shocked, turned around and looked at Fang Lang in disbelief.
It's not that he was shocked that the other party gave him such a valuable thing.
Instead, he was puzzled as to why Fang Lang threw out such a thing right after the two of them had just reached a tacit agreement.
His eyes seemed to be questioning Fang Lang, what else do you want to do?
Fang Lang looked at the other person's expression and smiled.
“Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Colonel, we are comrades.
This property was seized when we wiped out the Yakubu family, the cancer of Natal. We give it to you as a gift. As for how you plan to deal with it, it is your freedom. "
The meaning is very clear. Now that we have reached an agreement, we are friends.
This house is just a gift for a friend.
...
...
Colonel Waldo Granma thought too much and thought that the other party wanted him to use the house to accommodate Miss Ianna Siti.
Continue to threaten him with Miss Ianna Siti!
In fact, he hasn't figured it out yet. In the current situation, it is actually most advantageous for the opponent to wave.
Fang Lang might have been testing him, if Colonel Waldo Granma really brought the girl with big wavy blond hair to live in Natal.
He would have to consider the new Marine Corps commander in advance.
We can't wait until Colonel Waldo Granma's car overturns and he's abandoned before we're caught off guard!
After staring at Fang Lang for a while and finding that Fang Lang did not seem to have any other intentions, Colonel Waldo Granma nodded and said to Fang Lang:
"Thank you for the gift, sir."
Then he pushed the door and walked out.
Colonel Waldo Granma walked out of Fang Lang's office with a bitter face, knowing that he was completely controlled by Fang Lang.
After sighing softly, he chose to accept his fate.
Fang Lang, who had just seen off Colonel Waldo Granma, was not in the mood to care about his feelings at the moment.
He was studying a document on the table carefully.
At first, I didn't take it too seriously, but the more I looked at Fang Lang, the uglier his expression became.
It had only been a short time since I recruited the American advisory group to Natal when this happened.
He picked up the phone on the table and called Qi Qingshan in.
"Qingshan, call Military Medical Officer Danilo Huber over here immediately."
Qi Qingshan didn't understand why Fang Lang looked so unhappy, and thought that Colonel Waldo Granma had made Fang Lang unhappy.
But Fang Lang suddenly asked the military doctor to report to him, which still surprised Qi Qingshan, and he hurriedly said:
"Boss, are you feeling unwell?"
Fang Lang shook his head and continued to look at the contents of the document without raising his head.
"It's official business. Hurry up and notify Military Doctor Danilo Huber to come see me."
Qi Qingshan was relieved to hear that Fang Lang was not unwell, and he quickly took the order and left.
Soon he brought Danilo Huber, the military medical officer of the First Fleet, to Fang Lang's office.
The First Fleet is a naval force with tens of thousands of people, but its medical organization is small, with only a battalion-level unit under the jurisdiction of the Logistics Department.
Major Danilo Huber, a military medical officer, is the commander of this battalion-level medical unit.
"Doctor Danilo Huber, are the data in your report accurate?"
Fang Lang asked as he looked at the middle-aged white man in front of him with slightly graying hair and wearing glasses.
The other party was obviously prepared for this question.
He stood at attention and saluted:
“General, this report is based on the actual data of the soldiers who have come to the medical camp for physical examinations during this period.
The data is absolutely true and reliable.”
Fang Lang frowned and continued to ask:
“Do we have good treatment options now?”
The military doctor stood at attention and saluted:
"General, the best treatment now is penicillin, but the price of penicillin is too high.
More importantly, it takes at least one to two months for a patient to recover.
Now, the number of infected people found in our medical camp alone has reached nearly 500.
As for how many people have been infected but have not come to our medical camp for examination, we have no way of counting them.”
This situation gave Fang Lang a headache. Among the 10,000-man army, more than 500 people were diagnosed with syphilis and gonorrhea by the medical battalion.
If each person needs to be hospitalized for a month, it is equivalent to one twentieth of the fleet's non-combat casualties.
“Have you investigated the source of the infection?”
"Report to the General, the source of infection comes from the fallen women in Natal!"
“Hasn’t the Natal government been asked to organise regular physical examinations for these fallen women?
Could it be that there are fallen women working without a license? "
Fang Lang was very annoyed. When the Yakubu family was eradicated, the entire entertainment industry in Natal had been rectified, and every fallen woman was given a permit to take photos.
The government organizes medical staff to conduct regular physical examinations on these women, and they are only allowed to operate businesses if they are healthy.
Could it be that the government has given up on enforcement so quickly?
After hearing Fang Lang's words, Major Danilo Huber said with a little embarrassment:
“I heard that since the soldiers from the American advisory group patronized these businesses, many fallen women have been confirmed to be infected and sent to the hospital.
There are less than 200 fallen women who can still work normally now.”
When Fang Lang heard this, he almost cursed out loud.
Doesn't this mean that a large number of the American soldiers they hired are still carrying syphilis and gonorrhea bacteria?
I knew American soldiers played wildly, but I didn't expect them to play so wildly.
No wonder every American soldier in World War II had condoms in their supplies.
It seems that this disease is very common in the US military!
Resisting the urge to curse, Fang Lang looked at Major Danilo Huber and said:
"If we organize all soldiers to undergo physical examinations now, will you have enough manpower to handle it?"
Major Danilo Huber did not expect that Fang Lang would actually want to organize a physical examination for all soldiers.
Somewhat embarrassed:
"General, we already have more than 500 susceptible patients in our medical camp. If we want to conduct a comprehensive physical examination on all of them, we may need to seek medical support from outside."
Fang Lang never imagined that the first official business he would handle after becoming a rear admiral would be such a mess.
He sighed helplessly and said:
“There is a shortage of staff. I will find a way. We must immediately organize everyone to undergo a physical examination.
We have now suffered non-combat casualties of one-twentieth. After a comprehensive physical examination, I estimate that the number is at least one-tenth.
If this situation is allowed to continue and not curbed, our fleet will not have to fight.
They will be defeated directly by these unspeakable diseases. "
Fang Lang turned around and said to Qi Qingshan:
"Notify Chief of Staff De La Torre to immediately organize all personnel in the fleet to undergo medical examinations in batches."
"Yes, boss."
Qi Qingshan took the order and left.
Fang Lang continued to speak to Major Danilo Huber:
“Mr. Surgeon, medical and health safety is no small matter. Now our fleet is growing in size and number.
I think it is very necessary for us to expand the size of the medical camps.
You go back and make a plan as soon as possible. I want to set up our own hospital for the fleet.
The organization was expanded to regiment level.
In order to ensure that the hospital has sufficient sources of patients, we can open up the remaining medical resources to the outside world.
While receiving patients from the public and training doctors’ abilities, it also generates some income for the fleet.”
In fact, this is the advanced experience from his hometown in later generations, which Fang Lang directly learned and applied.
However, Major Danilo Huber was very surprised. After all, Brazil is not his hometown. The army belongs to the country, and the medical battalion also belongs to the country, which is responsible for ensuring the life, health and safety of the soldiers.
Now Fang Lang wants to build a military hospital. Major Danilo Huber has no doubt about it. However, the military hospital should be open to the public and accept ordinary people to seek medical treatment in the military hospital.
This can be said to be the first time in Brazil!
Fang Lang had no choice but to do this. After all, the medical and health conditions in Natal were not very good.
The last time we rescued a group of laborers from the Japanese, we wanted to arrange physical examinations for them, so we had to recruit doctors from Rio de Janeiro and other places.
Originally, he was planning to build a hospital in Natal for Lilith to practice after she graduated.
But Lilith's studies were not expected to be completed until at least mid-1949.
Now it's over, I can't wait any longer.
We might as well build a military hospital based on the fleet medical battalion, which will provide medical and health care for the fleet officers and soldiers while training a team of qualified doctors.
Although Major Danilo Huber was surprised by Fang Lang's behavior, this matter was obviously beneficial to him, and he would definitely not refuse it. Therefore, he stood at attention and saluted without hesitation:
"Yes, General! I promise to complete the mission."
Fang Lang nodded and said:
“For this fleet-wide physical examination, my idea is to try to find suitable medical staff in Brazil.
At the same time, I will also hire a medical team from the United States to conduct a comprehensive physical examination of the American advisory group.
I think Americans must have rich clinical experience in the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.
We should take this opportunity to learn more from them. Do you understand? "
Major Danilo Huber was still surprised that Fang Lang would hire an American medical team.
Modern medicine is developing rapidly in this era, and powerful countries such as Britain and the United States are undoubtedly at the forefront of the world.
Having the opportunity to be exposed to the latest diagnostic and treatment methods of Americans is a rare opportunity for both Major Danilo Huber and his team.
"Yes, sir!"
After finishing the communication with Major Danilo Huber.
Fang Lang directly asked for help from his immediate superior, the Minister of the Navy, General Crook. After all, the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group is an important part of the Brazilian Navy.
Of course, you cannot rely on yourself to solve all the difficulties. Appropriately seeking help from higher-level leadership departments can increase your presence in front of your leaders.
After General Crook received Fang Lang's request for help, he immediately dispatched a medical team of about 500 people from the Navy Department and the Ministry of Defense to go to Natal for support.
He expressed his appreciation for Fang Lang's ability to discover the abnormality in a timely manner and to take proactive measures immediately.
Then, Fang Lang asked the American Global Group to hire a professional medical team from an American hospital to conduct physical examinations and treatments for the American advisory group.
As mentioned before, Americans are not noble and we need to invite doctors from the United States to treat them.
Fang Lang's original purpose was to enable Brazilian doctors to learn some advanced diagnostic and treatment methods from Americans.
It would be best if we could recruit two doctors from the medical team and keep them in Brazil to join the Fleet Military Hospital and serve the fleet.
After all, if you want to make a military hospital grow and develop, it is definitely not enough to rely solely on military doctors.
Hiring outside doctors is also an important means, and these American doctors are outstanding talents who have been exposed to the world's advanced diagnostic and treatment methods.
Of course it would be best if you could stay.
Of course, this is just Fang Lang's wishful thinking. After all, doctors are high-income people in the United States and are respected.
If he joins the military hospital, how much salary can Fang Lang offer?
Referring to American standards will definitely cause conflicts between local Brazilian doctors and American doctors.
Therefore, this plan will definitely not work in the end. The only long-term solution is to train our own medical staff.
