But just as Jin Shijie opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Jin Anping: "Not as good as, that's not as good as, there's no need to make excuses for yourself. You can admit that you are not as good as Yun Heng, so why can't your grandfather admit that he is not as good as Qu Tongwen?"
Jin Shijie stopped talking.
Jin Anping smiled and said, "I started studying medicine when I was a teenager, and I've been practicing medicine for over 60 years now. In my opinion, the best time to learn Chinese medicine is about 10 years. Generally speaking, after about 10 years of practice, you'll have seen most of the diseases you can see in clinical practice. By this time, your level of Chinese medicine skills is completely set, and there's no room for improvement."
"If we calculate based on the current age of university graduates, the average person starts clinical practice at 25, and by 35, the level of Chinese medicine practitioners have basically settled. It's not that there won't be further improvement, but the room for improvement is very small."
"Zhang Zhongjing and Zheng Qin'an, famous doctors in ancient times, were mostly young when they became famous. Lifespans were short in ancient times, and thirty was considered old. But now, thirty is still considered young. When it comes to Chinese medicine, it's not just the white beard that counts."
Jin Anping emphasized his tone as he spoke: "A quack doctor may still be a quack doctor when he is 80 years old. It has nothing to do with age. The older he is and the longer he has been practicing medicine, the more harm he will do to people."
"Grandpa, I understand."
Jin Shijie nodded. After Jin Anping's words, Jin Shijie could easily understand the reason.
In fact, it is not just about learning Chinese medicine, it is the same for learning anything. You will make great progress at the beginning. If you can get started quickly, you can actually learn it very quickly. But if you don’t have talent, you will still be the same after ten years, let alone another ten years, or even a hundred years.
"It's been five years since you graduated. The remaining five years are very important to you. During this period, if you can get in touch with more famous artists and learn more about their styles, it will be very important for your future. Once your style is formed and your thinking is fixed, it will be difficult to change it."
"Grandpa, I understand. I'll listen to you."
Jin Shijie smiled and said, "You are my guiding light."
"You little brat."
Jin Anping cursed with a smile, his eyes full of kindness.
