August 31 Mike. Mr. Snell's plane did not arrive in Shanghai.

Senator Lehman had been in Shanghai for three days to welcome him, and he seemed impatient with a number of events to attend in early September.

Wait for Mike. Mr. Snell's arrival and introduction to him and the "miracle doctor Li Xiang" was the obligation that Senator Lehman had to fulfill as an introducer. Over the years, in the Senate campaign, large and small, Mike . . . Mr. Snell is the most important sponsor.

Now that Mr. Snell is in serious condition, it makes sense that he must stay in Shanghai.

Senator Lehman's irritability also lies in the fact that if Mike. With the tragic death of Mr. Snell, he needs to find a new sponsor among the heirs of the Snell family. The situation is quite chaotic at the moment, and Mrs. Snell seems to have a chance with Mr. Snell's ex-wife and children, and he cannot bet on this delicate period full of uncertainties.

However, in the eyes of the successors of the Snell family, Lehman's senatorship is undoubtedly quite weighty; With his support, there will be a strong foreign aid in the possible inheritance war in the future.

Therefore, Mrs. Snell frequently talked to him under the pretext of discussing his illness with the senator and asking about the situation between the "miracle doctor Li Xiang" and Shanghai. Maxnell's second son, who is now vice president of Snell Asset Management and chairman of the Snell Foundation, Robert Brown. Mr. Snell arrived in Shanghai in the morning.

He didn't go directly to Wanghai Hospital, and immediately after being admitted to the Jin Jiang Hotel, he was taken to Breston Hospital. Three lawyers from the law firm of Veda Puris were summoned for a meeting and are now calling Senator Lehman to invite him to dinner.

Lehman was a little undecided, as Mr. Snell's senior assistant, Mr. Anthony, had arrived.

Anthony not only brought a custom-made ambulance, but also two professional bodyguards and two lawyers. They don't belong to Breston. Vidar Priss Law Firm.

Mr. Snell's assets are divided into three parts, and Mr. Snell's asset management company, which is run by Mrs. Snell. Snell's second son, Robert. The Snell Foundation, which Mr. Snell heads, and the Snell Medical Research Center, which Mr. Anthony heads.

The two lawyers were hired by the Snell Medical Research Center, that is, it was Mr. Anthony who paid for them.

Mr. Anthony was a pure black African-American, in his fifties, with a kind face and a smile on his face. His hair was thinning, but his body was as strong as a hill.

Senator Lehman is a white supremalist, but that also depends. Senator Lehman did not show even the slightest arrogance in the face of Anthony, who spoke with the same smile on his face as Anthony.

As Zhu Tong had estimated, Anthony had arrived not only to deliver the ambulance, but also to bring a document that he hoped he would sign.

The document was simpler than Thompson's, with only twelve thin pages.

The location was still in the luxurious clinic of Wanghai Hospital's "Divine Doctor Li Xiang", but Zhu Tong also refused to sign the document on the pretext that he needed his own lawyer to study.

Anthony and Senator Lehman were talking to each other, as if they didn't care very much.

Hearing that Zhu Tong refused to sign, Anthony turned his head and smiled and said, "If Mr. Li thinks those terms are inappropriate, put them forward, and we can discuss." These documents must be completed by nine a.m. tomorrow. ”

"It means ......" Zhu Tong took off his glasses and looked at him puzzled.

Anthony waved his hands: "Why not?" It can shorten the distance between us and resolve possible misunderstandings in advance. You are an accomplished doctor, and the Senator is full of praise for you, and Lord Hamilton believes that you are the only one who can cure Mr. Snell's illness, at least a few more years. I think the doctors they recommend together must be exceptional. Before making this decision, we commissioned a friend to collect the cases of some of the patients you cured, and we were honored to have two of your former patients visit the Snell Medical Research Center. Mr. Snell believes you can, so here we are. There is a Chinese proverb that says the villain first and then the gentleman. I think it makes a lot of sense. ”

"You've studied me." Zhu Tong's face turned cold, and he glanced at Senator Lehman; "I've always thought of us as friends."

"It's not about me." Lehman hurriedly defended himself, and he said to Anthony dissatisfiedly: "Sir, I think it is rude for you to do this. ”

Obedient and listening, Anthony is only talking about the cases of patients who wish Tong to be cured, but those materials must not be limited to the medical field alone. Zhu Tong knows his own business, "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" is officially listed in Wanghai Hospital, there is no need to elaborate, although some of his patients are poor and cannot afford to pay high medical expenses, but more are those who are rich and wealthy. Without the huge wealth they grabbed, Wanghai Hospital would not be able to sustain itself today.

Before he was given Wanghai Hospital, especially during the confrontation with Lord Hamilton, according to Senator Lehman, although the impression of "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" was not to the level of ruthlessness, it was appropriate to use the eight words "greedy and unscrupulous".

Lehman didn't want to create a gap between him and Zhu Tong because of this. Although the first meeting between the two was not good, and they had not seen each other several times in more than a year, in Lehman's mind, the Chinese doctor had become one of his most important friends.

In Mike. When Mr. Snell was in good spirits, Lehman of course discussed with him the "Miracle Doctor Li Xiang", and in that informal casual conversation between friends, Lehman said something that does not seem very appropriate now, but at that time he never thought that one day, Mike Snell, who owned a Snell Medical Research Center. Snell will have to turn to the "miracle doctor Li Xiang" for help.

"Mr. Lehman, the issue we are discussing now has nothing to do with you. I understand you, you are a good person. Zhu Tong waved his hand at Lehman, and said to Anthony: "Of course, Mr. Snell has the right to investigate the doctor who is going to treat him, and with his net worth and influence, it is understandable to be cautious." It's just that, as a doctor, I also have the freedom to choose my patients. ”

"I'm sorry, that's what Madame meant. I apologize to you if Mr. Lee felt offended. Anthony stood up and bowed with sincerity. But when he raised his head, he said very seriously: "Every doctor who treats Mr. Snell must sign similar legal documents, not only for Mr. Snell and Mrs. Snell, but also to protect you from outside interference and to concentrate on what you are good at." I know, Breston. The lawyers at Vidaprith have hit a nail in the nail on your head, and that document is more like an uncomfortable rope. I'm sorry, but that's Mr. Snell's exact words. The document in front of you is completely devoid of those complicated and incomprehensible things, and there are no legal traps that will not hurt your self-esteem. You should take a closer look at it, and I'm sure you'll be happy to sign it after reading it. ”

"Mr. Anthony, I don't think you understood what I meant." Zhu Tong stood up and walked to the door and opened the door, and said very unceremoniously: "I don't think there is any need to waste everyone's time." In addition to Wanghai Hospital, there are several well-known traditional Chinese medicine hospitals in Shanghai. I can introduce you to a few good peers. ”

Anthony showed a confused expression, he looked at Lehman with an embarrassed face, frowned, and said, "Before getting on the plane, Mrs. Snell specially asked me to add a clause, which is the final reward clause. From Mike. From the moment Mr. Snell arrives in Shanghai, you will receive $24,000 in less than a day. Of course, the consultation fee is calculated separately. The terms of the reward don't mention the expiration date, which you can understand as a thousand dollars for every hour of Mr. Snell's life, even if you are asleep. I don't think there's a better reward clause in the world. As long as you sign it......"

"I'm sorry, I refuse." Zhu Tong called Miss Sireya outside the door: "Greet the guests for me, it's time for the inspection, Anna, accompany me to the ward to have a look." ”

Anna is the current English name of the beautiful female anchor, she has to follow the interview throughout the whole process, and her current identity is the personal assistant of "Divine Doctor Li Xiang". Zhu Tong specially arranged a set of elegant and comfortable tables and chairs for her next to the seat of Sireya in the reception room.

In the reception room sat two bodyguards brought by Anthony, two white men with serious expressions and slightly dark complexions. When they saw Zhu Tong coming out, they suddenly stood up and stopped in front of him.

The female anchor was frightened, Snell's bodyguards had a bad aura, and the people who died at their hands must be indispensable; She couldn't take it.

"You'd better sit down and finish your coffee." Zhu Tong stopped, turned around and asked, "Anthony, what does this mean?" ”

"You should think again. Some things may not be acceptable at the time, but when we take a long-term view, we may find that everything is worth it. There are people in the world who deserve privileges, and there are people who ...... Okay young man, so be it, let's get back to talking. "Anthony is a very calm man, and he sat on the couch until yesterday's back disappeared, and then he regretfully stood up.

He could see very clearly that the young "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" did not care about the threats they deliberately issued, and escorted Anna through between them and walked away.

The two bodyguards sat down and quietly raised their glasses and drank coffee. Miss Cerea pursed her lips, as if she had already known.

She stood in the doorway and politely made a gesture of please.

The master is gone, and Anthony and Lehman are not going to stay here.

Together, they returned to the villa prepared by Wanghai Hospital for Mr. Snell's entourage, Anthony called to report to his boss, and Lehman stood in a bored daze at the window.

"The Purple Wind arrives at 10:15 a.m. tomorrow." Anthony put down the phone, walked over to Lehman and whispered, "Mrs. Snell asked me to convey her apologies, she knows that you have delayed a lot of time for Mr. Snell's business. Madame said that you have always been her most trusted friend. ”

"Anthony, you've screwed things up." Lehman shook his head; "He's a weird guy, and anyone who can afford it has a temper. This time, you're wrong. It didn't take much to persuade him to agree to see Mr. Snell, but God, you can't think he's a money-grubber. That set didn't work for him. ”

Anthony said, "I know, Mr. Senator. I can apologize to him again, if needed. I don't think it's as serious as you think, and Mrs. Snell will be here tomorrow. Everything just now was ordered by Madame, and she will do it. You know, Mr. Finney is a good friend of Madame's, and he has promised to help. ”

"Mr. Finney from the U.S. Consulate General in Shanghai? It was better not to let Mrs. Snell mention that person in front of him, that would only make things worse. Sometimes...... I mean, sometimes, like when he feels underestimated, he can easily become an ultra-nationalist. Lehman said disdainfully.

Anthony was stunned. He knew the senator well, a white man who maintained a pretty good friendship with a Chinese, and who was a yellow-and-black golf boy named Toshishi Watanabe. All this is because the Chinese is "Divine Doctor Li Xiang".

For Finney, there was nothing to boast about on his trip to Xijing, and he only complained a few words in private when he returned to Shanghai. Of course, it is impossible for Anthony to know about the unpleasantness that happened between "Doctor Li Xiang" and Finney a few days ago.

"Any suggestions, Mr. Senator?" Anthony asked, touching the short beard on his chin.

"I'll talk to him in the evening." Lehman said helplessly; "With what I know about him, I don't have much hope. But he didn't drive you away right now. Maybe there's hope, it must be like this, I'll call him now. ”

Anthony pressed Lehman's hand and said, "We also have Chinese medicine in our medical research center, Mr. Snell said this. The reasonable explanation should be that TCM is a difficult group to understand, and most of their behavior follows a very peaceful philosophy of life: leave some leeway to do things and save some face. I think it makes a lot of sense. ”

"Anthony, you're such a lucky and shrewd fellow." Lehman said, with a thumbs up; "As for Mrs. Snell, may her luck be as good as her looks this time."

"Madame's luck has always been good." Anthony said confidently.

Lehman snorted, in his opinion, Zhu Tong was not a person who was greedy for beauty. There are many beautiful and charming women around him, some of whom he has turned into sisters, and more of them are just simple friends.

There are no less than gossip scandals related to "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" circulating in Shanghai, but insiders know that those are just gossip, and "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" is a very affectionate person.

This is also one of the reasons why he can be trusted.

"You can get to work." Anthony said in a loud voice.

The two bodyguards moved into a black box, followed by a pale, thin man.

He opened the box, pulled out some sophisticated-looking instruments, and quickly assembled something like a classical telegraph.

"This is Burles." Anthony briefly.

Lehman nodded, it was clear that Anthony didn't mean to introduce their acquaintance.
