"We changed locations quite a few times, but eventually settled on the No. 2 sand-proof cave."

No matter how many times the No. 2 sand-proof cave collapsed or how many times it was moved to different locations, in the end, all the inheritance and related materials related to traditional Chinese medicine are in the new No. 2 sand-proof cave.

Gu Shiqian nodded to indicate that he understood, then nudged the director, "Wake up, snap out of it."

The director didn't want to come back to his senses, but Gu Shiqian had already pushed him back to his senses.

Leaving it blank any longer wouldn't be appropriate.

So he reached up and wiped his face, then said with a look of utter despair, "Teach me... teach me acupuncture."

"Just acupuncture?"

Gu Shiqian said jokingly.

The director remained silent for a long time before finally managing to utter a sentence—

"If possible... teach me the others too."

As he spoke, he looked at Sang Ning and asked, "Is that alright?"

Sang Ning didn't object, but—

"This is a huge project. Even with the mind mapping tool, it will take me several days to complete everything."

The mind importer consumes mental energy. "I reckon by the time I'm all done, my brain will be pretty much ruined."

Gu Shiqian immediately objected, saying, "Then just teach acupuncture, and forget about everything else."

He argued confidently, "Anyway, humans can't learn it, and even if medical robots could, you wouldn't open it up for them to practice."

"In that case, I think we don't need to trouble our children."

That makes perfect sense.

The director felt that since there was an opportunity to learn, then we should make the effort to learn.

We can let the medical robot learn first, and then let it teach humans once it has learned.

Since medical robots have limitations and cannot be used in practice casually, let humans take the lead.

However, it will take a long time, since Sang Ning has a lot of things to say.

It's not something you can learn in a day or two.

But as the saying goes, having the opportunity to learn is always better than having no opportunity to learn.

Regardless of whether you can use it now, once you've learned it, it's yours.

Just in case, we might need it someday in the future.

Perhaps, by combining traditional Chinese medicine with modern medical technology, we can actually solve genetic diseases.

You still have to have dreams.

With that in mind, the director was particularly helpful, saying, "We'll pay them!"

He ignored Gu Shiqian's words and sincerely said to Sang Ning, "We won't let you work for free. If you help organize the data, we will give you a high reward."

Sang Ning looked at Gu Shiqian, her eyes conveying the message that she wanted to make this money.

Gu Shiqian, "..."

Gu Shiqian was moved to tears, and at the same time, he was so ashamed that he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.

If they were even slightly capable and had enough money to avoid being dirt poor, their children wouldn't even think about earning money, especially not this kind of hard-earned money that drains their mental energy.

"Actually... kid, we could have chosen not to make this money."

He said, "Now E72 is doing alright with the income from knitting, and the research conducted there by the Center for Human History Studies and other related departments also pays us. In addition, with the items donated by your friends and audiences when you were surviving on the desert planet, our lives are much better than before."

"It can be better."

Sang Ning laughed, "If we have better conditions, we can still give it a shot."

After hearing this, Gu Shiqian stopped trying to persuade him.

"It's up to you."

Sang Ning decided that she would take the job.

The director was overjoyed and, without her even bringing up the matter of payment, tactfully said, "I need to talk to Lao Li and the others about the payment."

Sang Ning nodded, "Okay, you guys go and talk."

So the director went to contact Lao Li and the others.

Ten minutes later, he returned, and the first thing he said was—

"After our discussion and deliberation, your compensation is five million."

Sang Ning looked at Gu Shiqian, her eyes questioning whether the price was high or low.

Gu Shiqian's response was to roll up his sleeves and angrily say, "You're not fair! You get the entire traditional Chinese medicine system, but you only offer five million in compensation? Are you skinning the poor?"

Sang Ning looked at the director, ready to see what he would say, but unexpectedly, the director said—

"Then how much do you want?"

Upon hearing this, Sang Ning understood.

Five million was the lowest price they negotiated, and there is still a lot of room for the price to rise.

Sure enough, as soon as the thought popped into his mind, Gu Shiqian held up one finger, "At least this price."

Sanning, "···"

Is this price a bit high?

"this···"

"Forget about this and that, this is the price, no bargaining."

Gu Shiqian made the final decision, not giving the chief director a chance to speak.

They even adopted an attitude of "if it's okay, it's okay; if it's not okay, then forget it."

The director, who was about to speak, immediately swallowed back his words and instead said—

"Okay, we'll do it your way."

Sang Ning's lips curled up, but Gu Shiqian slapped his thigh and said, "Damn it, you called too low."

Sang Ning exclaimed in shock, "This is low?"

"It is indeed too low."

The director's sour face disappeared, and he looked like he had gotten a great deal, saying, "Your vision is still too narrow. I originally thought you would make three or four times more."

The result was only two hundred.

He even helped me bargain beforehand, and this is what happened.

What a waste of his breath and face.

Gu Shiqian, "..."

Gu Shiqian fell silent, then blushed.

I'm so angry.

He held back for a long time, but finally couldn't contain his anger any longer. He rushed to the director's side like lightning, grabbed his arm, and pulled him outside.

"Get out of here, right now. I'm in a bad mood and need some peace and quiet."
