"what?"
[People who fall into the sea will not drown. Only those who pray for a big ship to fall from the sky and do nothing will drown. Florentines need to unite and need each of us to swim together to form an indestructible ark that can overcome all storms and tsunamis! ]
Seeing that the bearded man seemed to be lost in thought, his wife told him an event in the past that the bearded man did not know about.
"My parents were very opposed to it before I married you."
The bearded man was startled and looked up suddenly: "Why suddenly..."
"Just hear me out."
His wife interrupted him and continued:
"At that time, you were just a poor boy who only knew how to recite the law and had nothing.
But I just admire your drive.
When I saw this sentence, I thought of you. You are the kind of person who was born in the sea but will always swim hard towards your goal. I know that sooner or later you will succeed, so I will never look back. "
"you mean..."
“Why not give it a try?” The wife smiled and said, “You were worried that I would be scared, so you didn’t tell me what was going on outside. But when the neighbor was taken away that day, I actually guessed that the situation was much worse than you said.
And now, the possibility is before us, even though it seems a little... at least it's not something that we absolutely cannot try, right?
Haven't you always wanted to do something for Florence? Isn't the opportunity right in front of you now? "
The bearded man took a deep breath.
After a while, he suddenly smiled: "I didn't expect you to be more open-minded than me."
He was convinced.
The same thing happens in every household.
Although some people found what was on the flyer too hard to accept, most people gladly did as it said, found containers to collect the materials, and then quietly placed them on the street outside their homes.
When the soldiers returned to the area where they first distributed leaflets an hour later, they were surprised to find that the entire street was full of bottles and cans.
It is clear that the people of Florence are ready to overcome this challenge together.
The unity of Florence that night has become an enduring legend of the city.
As for the flyer, because of the items raised, it was honored as the sacred water drop fund in the Red Cross Bible!
Chapter 105 It’s broken, I became Noah
Giovanni's eyes widened as he watched the soldiers continuously transporting the required materials to the square outside the studio.
He didn't expect that his city could burst out with such powerful energy at a critical moment.
As the leader of Florence, he had never felt so proud for a moment.
"Brother, we have medicine at home!"
Listening to Catherine's excited shouting, Giovanni nodded absentmindedly.
"I'm proud to be the guardian of this city!" he murmured.
"It's not time to be proud yet."
Jiang Lu turned around and walked into the studio, leaving only his back.
"We cannot live up to their expectations."
The bird-beaked doctors in the square were watching from a distance, not knowing why.
Jiang Lu kept the entire clinical experiment process secret, so they only saw Greco constantly entering and leaving the isolation area, but they had no idea what was going on.
So in their opinion, Jiang Lu spent most of the night just huddled in the studio, doing meaningless things.
Now seeing Giovanni arriving with a lot of materials needed by Jiang Lu, especially when they heard from the soldiers that these were donated by people in the safe zone, they naturally thought that Jiang Lu was using this to make a living. Due to the wanton accumulation of money, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
But because Giovanni was also present, they didn't dare to act too much.
It wasn't until Jiang Lu left the scene that the doctors who had been the naysayers came to Giovanni.
"Dear Duke, you shouldn't believe that liar. He doesn't even know how to use a doctor's tools. How could you spend so much manpower and material resources on his unrealistic ideas?"
Giovanni glanced at the first speaker.
This person is the Holy See's physician sent by the Vatican. He has a high position and is a person who can be called an authority. He has a very high prestige among doctors.
In the past, Giovanni might have cared about the face of the Holy See, and would have given him face regardless of whether what he said was reasonable or not, and would have tried his best to cooperate with him if he needed anything.
But that's different now.
As soon as Jiang Lu arrived, he rescued his sister and cured his wife.
But these long-established doctors sometimes cannot even protect themselves.
High judgment.
Coupled with the words Jiang Lu said that made his heart move, he was a little drifting now.
What pope? What Holy See?
Stop pretending, I'm really unfamiliar.
"I think you misunderstood." Giovanni replied with a smile: "He is not a liar. He cured my wife and was the savior of my sister. I hope you can respect him instead of hostility."
He thought the other party would leave sensibly after hearing this, but he did not expect that another doctor who was somewhat related to the Medici family would give some advice: "Catherine has already said this, but... I think as the Duke of Florence, you should prioritize the safety of the people instead of making some decisions that lose the big picture for your unrealistic ambitions."
The arrogance and self-confidence in his words made Giovanni very unhappy.
Catherine, who had experienced it once, waved her hands helplessly at Giovanni, as if to say: Look, I told you so.
So Giovanni made his position unabashedly clear.
"Okay, don't say any more, the facts will prove everything. If I hadn't seen his ability and supported him, I think I would have believed your words and killed Florence's future!
Then you and I will naturally become sinners in history, and the deaths of tens of thousands of people will be blamed on us.
Think about it, you opinionated fellows! "
It has to be said that in serious situations, or in situations where Jiang Lu is not present, Giovanni's every move is indeed full of the unquestionable domineering temperament of a superior.
Moreover, he learned and put the moral kidnapping he had just learned from Jiang Lu into actual combat.
The Duke's majesty, coupled with the blame for sending the wrong message, really made these self-regarding doctors speechless. They were unconvinced but could only step aside.
Even Giovanni was a little surprised to see these people restrain their claws with just a few words.
As expected of Mr. Holmes, a single trick is enough to benefit me for a lifetime.
He can almost imagine that the day when he can skillfully use moral kidnapping, the whole continent will tremble!
Jiang Lu did not disappoint Giovanni, who supported him so firmly, and quickly produced a large amount of drugs.
These drugs were used by doctors headed by Marino who were absolutely obedient to Giovanni, starting with the most seriously ill people. Before dawn, those who were on the verge of death were almost out of danger.
Now those doctors who were not optimistic about Jiang Lu couldn't sit still.
They didn't believe that a few tiny drops of liquid could cure such a severe disease.
Some of them asked for samples, intending to study their medicinal properties.
But even doctors who are proficient in pharmacology can't figure out what this is.
They even tasted it in their mouths, but no one could decipher its ingredients from the unique taste.
At first, these self-proclaimed leaders could hold back their curiosity, but as more and more people came out of the quarantine area, they no longer had dark spots on their bodies, and they were shouting "Ginger Rock Holmes" , "Red Cross", "God of Redemption" and so on, they finally couldn't hold back and found Marino.
Although Marino is somewhat famous, it is only limited to the small place where he is. Naturally, he cannot compare with these giants. He is just a transparent person in the team of Dr. Beak. He has never experienced this kind of being treated by a big boss. A feeling of envelopment.
However, although this feeling was unprecedented, after all, my status was different now. I was the veteran who first joined the Red Cross, so although I was flattered, I still maintained a considerable demeanor.
When it came to the ingredients in the medicines they were asking about, Marino unleashed his former church doctor's sly instincts.
"That... is an unspeakable miracle, the holy water created by the great Sherlock Holmes!"
......
At dawn, Catherine and her wife, who had just recovered from a serious illness, and whom Giovanni had excitedly brought to help, were still resting.
The stunned Jiang Lu walked out of the studio dejectedly.
Although the body did not feel any discomfort with the help of the healing BUFF, the mental exhaustion and boredom were real.
He had never hated something so much for a moment.
Turn it off, turn it off, you must turn it off...
He seemed to hear his evil god foundation saying this.
The sun shone on Jiang Lu's face, making his eyes sore.
He rubbed his eyes, feeling something was wrong.
Why so quiet?
Then he saw that the square was full of people.
Giovanni looked at the confused Jiang Lu with a smile and shouted: "This is the one who saved us, the great Mr. Holmes!!"
For a time, the crowd became excited and everyone began to chant his name.
Jiang Lu was stunned for a moment, then turned into Zhou Xun's face: "There are so many people."
Among the crowd, Marino was secretly recording something...
"God's Proverbs: Save the Century"
Demons spread malice through filth and filth, spreading disease into the world.
The world is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled with death.
God said to Jiang Locke: The end of all flesh has come before me.
You have to save them, save those who are about to die.
This is what Jiang Luoke did, and he did whatever the gods commanded him.
He came to Florence.
At first, he directly separated out the essence and gave it to the seriously ill and dying people.
