Chapter 1927: 1859 I'll Do One (Monthly Ticket 37,000 Bonus Chapter ×74)

~7 min read 1,286 words

Liu Xu zhi finished a surgery, tore off the sterile gown and walked out, removed his mask, revealing a simple and humble smile.

"Zheng Lao Ban, you're not busy today."

"Let's have dinner together tonight. The surgery went okay; you basically did what I told you." Zheng Ren started watching the surgery from the beginning at 8x speed.

"Oh oh." Liu Xu zhi isn't good with words; Zheng Lao Ban just said they'd eat dinner, then immediately talked about surgery, leaving Liu Xu zhi feeling a bit torn.

"Old Liu, not bad!" Su Yun slapped his shoulder hard and smiled, asking, "How's the heart?"

"Everything's fine; just take oral meds daily to control blood pressure." Liu Xu zhi gave a foolish smile.

"Take care of your health." Zheng Ren said, "Old Liu, come here."

As he spoke, he moved his finger, and the image froze at a certain point in the surgery.

Liu Xu zhi was astonished; even though the surgery was playing at 8x speed, Zheng Lao Ban could pause it wherever he wanted.

Never mind anything else; just this hand speed and eyesight are already shocking.

Bending at the waist, Liu Xu zhi assumed a student's posture and stood beside Zheng Ren.

"Sit down and talk; isn't it tiring to bend like that?" Zheng Ren smiled, saying, "Just a little at first—I originally wanted to bring you along for a few surgeries when I started, but I got sent on a mission and missed the chance."

"But the problem shouldn't be big; after all, you haven't even done 100 surgeries yet. Fix those bad habits now, and there's still time."

Upon hearing Zheng Lao Ban's words, Liu Xu zhi's whole body shuddered.

One surgery costs 1500; 100 surgeries would be how much? Fifteen thousand!

For a few thousand yuan of pocket money, his simple-minded wife chased him to the hospital with a rolling pin. Yet this surgery costs tens of thousands, and Zheng Lao Ban talks about it so lightly.

In Liu Xu zhi's mind, 100 surgeries and what Zheng Ren meant by 100 surgeries are absolutely two different concepts.

"Don't space out; here your hand position should be like this. The finger spacing is off—do it like I am, raise the angle." Zheng Ren held the mouse with his right hand and made a gesture with his left.

Seeing Liu Xu zhi struggle to convert his left-hand gesture into a right-hand shape, Zheng Ren released the mouse and made a posture with his right hand.

"Hmm, that's just external. What you really need to pay attention to is the feel." Zheng Ren said, "Feel is hard to describe, but you'll get it with practice. Remember, the guidewire isn't moving through an empty pipe; it's moving through blood full of vessels, and the blood's viscosity will affect the surgery."

"……"

Liu Xu zhi was speechless.

Does that mean before every surgery we have to check the patient's full lipid panel? But those boring numbers on the report can't prove anything.

Zheng Ren chuckled, "It's just a saying, Old Liu—just remember it. As you do more surgeries, after surpassing a thousand, the constant verification will naturally bring more rewards."

A thousand surgeries…… Liu Xu zhi's eyes filled only with money.

1.5 million yuan is enough to buy the best house back home. There seems to be a surplus, enough to buy a decent car. There seems to be a surplus, enough to buy some investment products……

But in the capital, even a house in the most remote area is unaffordable.

Zheng Ren demonstrated a few more hand positions, then continued playing the surgery recording. He wasn't in a hurry either, since Liu Xu zhi, being self-taught, relies on his own tinkering and research, unlike formally trained graduate and doctoral students.

Many small habits are bad and need slight correction.

When the next patient arrived, Su Yun went to disinfect and lay out the sheets, while Liu Xu zhi seized the moment to listen to Zheng Ren's lecture.

Actually, in such a short time, there's nothing to really grasp, but Zheng Ren still wanted to tell Liu Xu zhi.

Because once these words take root, they will grow.

In the days to come, he will accumulate experience surgery by surgery, and someday he will understand what Zheng Ren meant.

"Boss, it's done!" Su Yun shouted in the operating room.

"Come on, Old Liu." Zheng Ren said, "I'll take you to do a few surgeries."

After saying that, he turned and asked Lin JiaoJiao, "Sister Lin, how many more are there?"

"Patients waiting in line for surgery……" Lin JiaoJiao couldn't grasp Zheng Ren's meaning; after all, they were to have dinner that night, and she really hoped Zheng Lao Ban could do surgeries here all night.

"What about today?"

"There are still five."

Zheng Ren hesitated a moment.

"That's too many; I'll tell the patients the operating room lost power, so we'll do it tomorrow." Lin JiaoJiao laughed.

This differs from 912; the public hospital takes in critically ill patients, while our side deals with girls who want to lose weight and improve their quality of life.

A day later is just a day later; now this surgery is the only one of its kind domestically, so we don't fear them getting angry and going elsewhere.

"The patient numbers are a bit low; is there enough time for fasting and water restriction?" Zheng Ren asked.

"……" Lin JiaoJiao startled, then immediately said, "Everyone's dieting; many girls don't eat or drink, so there definitely are. It's just that we're having dinner tonight……"

"There are still a few hours; I'll do two first, Old Liu, watch closely. Then I'll throw a few more your way. Uh… eight to ten won't interfere with dinner." Zheng Ren said while scrubbing his hands.

Lin JiaoJiao was overjoyed, but then felt a bit down.

According to Director Kong, Zheng Lao Ban's standard time for this surgery is over ten minutes per case. If Zheng Lao Ban came to do surgeries every day……

Lin JiaoJiao sighed.

How much money we make here, Zheng Lao Ban probably wouldn't care.

The weight of a Nobel Prize can't be bought with money.

She rushed to have her assistant contact patients; there are plenty of girls eager for surgery, so there's no worry about patient sources.

Hopefully after receiving Zheng Lao Ban's instruction, Old Liu will have an epiphany and work even faster.

Being both stable and fast means money will come in like a tide.

Too bad Zheng Lao Ban is too capable; we can't keep hold of him.

Lin JiaoJiao has a clear idea in her mind; she doesn't expect Zheng Lao Ban to be constantly stationed at Yimei doing surgeries.

The airtight lead door closed; Su Yun walked out, smiling, and said, "Sister Lin, have someone send the next patient."

"Huh?" Lin JiaoJiao blinked.

Not mentioning Liu Xu zhi's surgery; even if Zhu Liangchen did the surgery, sending a patient half an hour later would still be in time.

Sending a patient this early, how long would we have to wait?

Sister Lin, don't space out—Boss is used to doing Shou Bing one after another. Su Yun laughed: "It's delaying things; I won't be coming again."

"Oh, oh." Lin JiaoJiao responded twice, then immediately got busy.

Su Yun sat leisurely in the chair before the operating table, placed his phone on the desk, and the timer had already run for 30 seconds.

He glanced through the lead glass at the Operating Room, then looked at the image on the screen with an appreciative gaze.

Shou Bing was clean and swift; Liu Xu zhi was like a dummy, utterly unable to help.

Shou Bing ended, 12′23″.
