The auction of the GT-R was carried out quickly. Wang Bo sent the case materials and car information to the Road Traffic Management Bureau that day, and the court sent a summons the next day, asking him to send the car.

Two days later on Friday, the court auctioned the car and some items whose property rights were in dispute.

Not many people are interested in these things. The starting price of the GT-R is only 30,000 New Zealand dollars, which is a little more than one-fifth of a new car.

Only one young man and Wang Bo managed to snap the car, and the young man didn't have much money. When Wang Bo raised the price several times to raise the price to 34,000 yuan, he shook his head and quit.

In this way, for thirty-four thousand yuan, he got his first sports car in his life...

After the auction, Lao Wang looked at the silver-gray sports car with disbelief on his face. He didn't expect to win the car at such a low price. You must know that the car is very brand-new, with intact tires and spotless tires. You can tell from the interior that this car has not been driven a few times.

There is no problem with any part of the car, as long as the bumper is repaired, it can be used - when the front of the car hit the bicycle, it was very fast and violent, and the bumper was shattered into a mess.

Just two days ago, he received a call from the repair shop, asking him to pick up the Jeep so that he could send the GTR there for repairs.

But before that, he had to send the car auction money obtained by the court to the hospital to handle hospitalization procedures for the two Indonesian victims.

According to the immigration manual, New Zealand is the best welfare country in the world. As long as you apply for a community service card, both nationals and expatriates in this country can go to public hospitals for free treatment and maintenance.

In addition, it is well known that New Zealand also has a very awesome ACC Accident Compensation Bureau. Its compensation targets not only include all New Zealand citizens and permanent residence holders, but also include all natural persons in New Zealand.

In other words, any tourist, student, work permit holder or even illegal immigrant who encounters an accidental injury will be reimbursed and compensated by ACC.

This sounds wonderful, doesn't it

But after Lao Wang came to New Zealand, he discovered that this was nonsense! The situation is not that simple!

First, let’s introduce New Zealand’s medical system. It is composed of public, private and voluntary institutions. Several major institutions work together to provide medical security services. More than three-quarters of the medical care services are funded by the government’s Department of Revenue.

Indeed, New Zealand has a very good medical welfare policy. It costs almost nothing to enter a public hospital. If the accident is caused by an accident, ACC will compensate you, so you don’t need to spend much money.

However, after an accident, it is often the medical center that takes the lead in providing first aid, and in New Zealand, doctor's clinics and medical centers are private medical institutions.

In this case, the injured person can't refuse medical treatment from a private hospital, right? Which is more important, money or life? This is a truth that people from all over the world understand.

In this way, the cost of medical treatment in private medical institutions does not fall within the scope of public medical care, and you have to pay the relevant expenses yourself.

However, the New Zealand government will provide a subsidy for medical treatment fees. Generally, an adult can receive between 10 and 40 New Zealand dollars...

Of course, the medical center is still very humanitarian. After receiving an emergency, the doctors don't care whether you have money or not. They must provide first aid and then help the patient out of danger.

But all they can do is help the patient escape life-threatening danger. Do they want complete treatment and recovery? Then you have to pay. If you don't pay, it doesn't matter. Just transfer the patient to a public hospital.

For example, in this accident, when the Indonesian couple was brought to the medical center, the attending physician performed a craniotomy and drainage surgery on the female victim. This surgery could ensure that her life was not in danger, but it could not cure her brain trauma. .

Even if you enter a public hospital, it will not cost you a penny. Some examination items and surgical expenses do not require the patient to spend money, but if you buy medicines, you may have to spend your own money.

The New Zealand government has a drug subsidy list. If patients need to use the prescription drugs listed on the list, they can get subsidies, almost free of charge. However, only prescription drugs listed on its drug list can be subsidized. Drugs on the non-subsidized list still need to be purchased by patients at their own expense.

In the case of an Indonesian couple who suffered such a serious trauma, they must need a lot of medicines, and I don’t know how many of them are on the non-subsidized list.

Of course, their injuries were caused by accidents and they will receive compensation from ACC, but this compensation is not lifelong. They will be sent out after treatment in the hospital, and ACC will not care if they spend money in the future.

For patients who have suffered severe trauma, later physical therapy is more important and costs more.

Wang Bo sent the money to the medical center, and they will keep it as a down payment. After deducting the medical expenses, it will be returned to the Indonesian couple. This is the only compensation they can get.

As for wanting to cure the disease and return to normal without spending a penny, that's impossible. The New Zealand government is not purely charitable.

In fact, Parliament is already working hard to cut social welfare, because New Zealand's finances are dragged down by huge welfare policies, and the annual fiscal deficit is getting increasingly ugly.

After giving the money, he wanted to see it as a courtesy. Atulu, who was accompanying him, asked: "Should we bring a wreath?"

Lao Wang was stunned: "What happened? Who died?"

Atulu scratched his head and quickly corrected himself: "I made a mistake. Should we bring a garland?"

Lao Wang was startled. He thought one of the Indonesian couples had died. As for bringing gifts, that's it. The Indonesians are very mean and want to try to impress him. He doesn't need to be so friendly and enthusiastic - what if the Indonesians find out that he is too kind and rely on him

Driving the newly acquired GT-R, Lao Wang went to the garage where the Jeep was parked. The car became more beautiful after being repainted and glued. Although it cannot be said to be a new car from the factory, it cannot be seen that it is a car with two or three characteristics. A ten year old car.

Wang Bo got in the car and tried it. The gear was very smooth. When he stepped on the accelerator, the speed of the car quickly reached 100 kilometers per hour, and everything returned to normal.

He was very satisfied with this and asked: "How much is the total?"

The boss smiled and said, "The total is 3,500 yuan."

Lao Wang thought he heard wrongly. He glared at the boss and said, "Man, how much did you say?"

"Three thousand five hundred dollars!"

Lao Wang suddenly became anxious. He glared at the garage owner and said, "Didn't you promise that it would only cost about five hundred yuan?"
