Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2203 Where Qi Lies, Where Life Lies

Huang Boxi was determined to establish a proper specialized hospital. The hospital was originally designed to have a special operating room. After the hospital construction fell through, Huang Boxi's skills were no longer needed. When he was in a bad mood, he would inevitably mutter a few words. Bian Mu would listen quietly beside him, rarely interrupting. Over time, Bian Mu's awe of surgical treatment grew stronger day by day.

In Bian Mu's view, no matter how outstanding or talented Lu Yisi is, even if he could be called the best surgeon in the world, it is common for him to make mistakes in his surgical records from time to time because he lacks the fundamental concept of holistic view.

Of course, these words can only be kept in one's heart; one can never say them out loud.

Lu Yisi is too outstanding! He is at the peak of his career, with a good background and in his prime. How could he listen to anything that is not meant to be listened to?

Judging from Lu Yisi's expression, the surgical mistake was just a momentary lapse in judgment and had little to do with his technical skills. He was just unlucky and would be more careful next time.

Factors related to the anesthesiologist, the precision of preoperative preparation, and the patient's own unique characteristics... If he wanted to find fault, he could easily come up with a bunch of reasons, a bunch of reasons that would likely be accepted by the industry.

Lu Yisi was too outstanding, and all the responsible parties would inevitably try their best to protect his superb "technical image," which Bian Mu always felt was not a good thing.

Bian Mu guessed that Lu Yisi, with his high skills and daring, had mastered all the complex intestinal adhesion release surgery, small bowel repositioning surgery, small bowel bypass surgery, and even more types of surgery in the shortest amount of time.

"Three-spell combo? Or five-spell direct combo?" Bian Mu asked with concern, putting down her chopsticks.

"Oh...you really are a master of both Chinese and Western medicine! So knowledgeable?! No wonder they said behind your back that your background was shady...don't misunderstand! It's definitely a compliment! They mean you have a very powerful background! They're afraid of you! 3.5, I guess! Actually...at the time I just felt that it was my mom's side of the relationship! In the end, out of kindness, I added a few extra touches, and then..."

"Oh...male or female?"

"Male, senior programmer, the kind of engineer who sets up the big technical framework, 59 years old, will retire in a few years. He sits for long periods of time, lacks necessary exercise, and suffers from all kinds of aches and pains. It's also my fault for not carefully reviewing the previous surgical cases beforehand..." Lu Yisi gently placed the spoon in his hand on the plate, a few traces of regret flashing across his face.

“Oh… the surgery was originally completed successfully. Out of kindness, you tried to slightly correct some of the postoperative problems. Unexpectedly… you stirred up a hornet's nest, which ultimately caused the patient’s bowel to be unable to pass gas. Not only did the wound not heal on its own, but the intestinal function has also been difficult to recover. The tube cannot be removed after the surgery, and the patient can only eat a small amount of high-energy nutritional liquid, millet soup, fruit juice and other liquid foods every day. At present, the patient is severely emaciated and has a very poor quality of life. The patient is under tremendous psychological pressure because of this and has even expressed suicidal thoughts…” Bian Mu guessed for a long time in one breath.

Lu Yisi was dumbfounded!
"You know so many people now? As far as I know, at most five or six colleagues know about this. You..." Lu Yisi was not prepared at all and was at a loss for words because of Bian Mu.

"Hehe... You're overthinking it. Your hospital has very high standards, I can't possibly be worthy of you. Actually, we do cross paths occasionally when we're out on house calls, but... you're so proud and arrogant. You just leave everything after surgery, letting your colleagues and other organizations handle all the follow-up issues. Over time, you definitely won't have to worry about small things like patient follow-ups. I'm different. As long as I treat a slightly complicated patient, we have to take on more responsibility for them. There's no way around it, there are no other organizations or colleagues to share the burden with us! Also, the digital medical system we developed is quite good at post-treatment statistics. I didn't know much about it before, but recently, Professor Duan's side has been a bit off, so I had to call on Xiao He and his young colleagues to tidy it up a bit! We accidentally discovered that our system is actually unique in the whole city. Of course, I'm just saying this to you, it's not something I'd tell outsiders!"

Lu Yisi was eager to escape and didn't really listen to much of Bian Mu's explanation.

Bian Mu had already figured it out by observing people's expressions and demeanor.

How could Bian Mu lower himself to the level of a spoiled young master like this! Never mind, let's get back to the main topic!
"Let me put it this way, there's a really powerful saying in traditional Chinese medicine that you should listen to: 'Where Qi resides, there lies the gate of life!' This is especially true for intestinal surgery like this. You don't usually deal with this kind of thing, so you'll have to listen to me ramble on for a bit. Can you take it in?" Lu Yisi had been listening patiently for a while, and by now he was getting a little impatient. However, since he needed a favor from him, he had to lower himself.

"All ears!"

Knowing that he was being somewhat insincere, Bian Mu didn't take it personally.

He doesn't even act like he's asking for a favor. Are all rich kids like this? At least Cao Yueyue's younger brother isn't like that.

People are indeed different.

"You mean... from a Western medical perspective, there's no room for surgery, and you want me to go and try?" Bian Mu said with a smile.

Hearing this, Lu Yisi felt a little embarrassed.

"That's not what I meant. I checked on him in the ward before I came. The incision has basically healed, but... I'm worried that it might recur in a year. Also, you guessed it, I did a few extra incisions. He had a major surgery in Beiqi before. I recently found out that it was performed by a very famous doctor. Now that I think about it, the doctor deliberately left a few extra incisions for the man's future quality of life. In other words, that renowned expert thought quite far ahead. I was confused, acted on impulse, and underestimated him, so I went and made a few more incisions. Later, I even bragged about it to my mother. Who would have thought..."

"It's nothing, I've done similar things a lot in clinical practice, it's nothing. So... what do you mean now?" Bian Mu asked casually.

"Come with me to the hospital after dinner. Do you need me to help you get rid of this intestinal hernia? You're always quick-witted and resourceful, so please do me a favor!"

Upon hearing this, Bian Mu immediately laughed.

When you ask someone for a favor, you have to act like you're asking for a favor; otherwise, it's hard to get along with anyone.

"Sure, but you'll have to pay some money first!"

Lu Yisi was stunned when he heard Bian Mu actually ask for money?!

"What exactly do you mean?! You can't just make jokes like this!" Lu Yisi was somewhat annoyed.

“I’m not kidding! You have to come up with at least 3 first!” Bian Mu said seriously, without any politeness, and immediately asked for 3.
