After seeing the people leave, Commander Yu and the others lost their relaxed look and became a little serious.
Commander Deng explained, "Xiaotian, we don't want to trouble you, but you also know the level of medical care in our country. These people have made great contributions. They are so important!"
The news that Tian Cai cured Yu Xuewei's spinal injury has spread to the Southwest Military Region. Even the injuries that military doctors were helpless to treat were mostly recovered in just two months in her hands. This kind of treatment method is beyond the reach of doctors in military hospitals.
Political Commissar Sun continued, "We all know about Yu Xuewei's injury. There are many veterans like him in the army who, after returning from the battlefield, are too seriously injured to even lead a normal life. These are heroes who defended their country. If we can give them a chance to live a normal life, we must strive for it."
Before Tian Cai could say anything, Gu Changhe joined in. "Doctor Xiaotian, we've tried everything we can. Our country has many doctors who are good at surgery, and our military hospitals have many good doctors, but they still can't do anything about bone and nerve injuries. This can't be cured entirely by surgery. It was Doctor Yang Qingwen who showed us a way. Perhaps we could come to you and try acupuncture. It is said that Traditional Chinese Medicine has made great achievements in this area and is more reliable."
"Right, right, right. And when it comes to acupuncture, few can compare to you."
Commander Yu listened without saying anything. He had discussed this issue with Tian Cai before. Knowing that the people above would definitely come and try, Commander Yu had no choice but to bring people over. He would not make decisions for Tian Cai, although he naturally stood on the side of the army.
The contribution this little girl has made to the country is far beyond the reach of many of their veterans. Unless Tian Cai herself is willing, he will not force anything.
Well, I still have to say something to plead for mercy.
"But I only have two hands. I don't think I can be of much help," Tian Cai spread his hands, laying out the facts before him, and directly pointing out the purpose of their visit. "Besides, every time you bring people here, I've never kicked them out. I even sent those who couldn't come to the military area. I cured everything I could. There's nothing here that's worth all the trouble, right?"
A trace of embarrassment crossed Commander Deng's face. He felt that what he was about to say was indeed shameless, and it sounded forced no matter how he said it. So he turned his gaze to Political Commissar Sun on the side, wanting him to speak.
After all, Political Commissar Sun was a political commissar, and he could speak much more than those who only knew how to lead troops in battle. He briefly explained the situation to Tian Cai, focusing on describing the difficulties those soldiers faced, how much it cost the country to train such talents, and how the tasks they performed were secretive and dangerous. He also told her how much mental trauma such soldiers suffered after being discharged from the army due to injuries. Finally, he asked Tian Cai to consider it.
Tian Cai turned to Commander Yu and signaled with his eyes, is this what you call long-term cooperation?
Commander Yu looked up at the sky. He didn't expect Deng Weimin to be so anxious. He rushed over before he could reply.
Tian Cai lowered her eyes, still thinking about the same question as before. She did sympathize with those people and was willing to help as much as possible, but she didn't want to find so much work for herself.
This kind of treatment would be fine if it happened only occasionally, but if she was busy all day long, she felt that her peaceful days would be gone.
Several grown men looked at Tian Cai eagerly. To be honest, their eyes were even more passionate than when they saw their own wives.
Tian Cai was helpless, "It's all up to me alone?"
Gu Changhe hurriedly said, "No, no, no, that's definitely not the case. We'll send the patients who can be treated in the military hospital there, and we'll ask you to take a look at the patients who can't be treated. We'll also send them here directly. As for the location and personnel, you don't have to worry about it. As long as you give us a nod, we'll immediately find people to come and build a house, and we'll also provide enough doctors and nurses."
Tian Cai puffed out his cheeks, he really found solutions for all the reasons for rejection.
Political Commissar Sun continued, "Then we'll apply to the higher authorities to transfer your household registration to the military district, and you'll be assigned directly to the military hospital as a specially-appointed doctor. We guarantee you'll receive the highest possible salary, including a monthly allowance. What do you think?"
Tian Cai rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Am I doing this for those people who receive subsidies?"
Upon hearing this, Political Commissar Sun immediately said, "Of course not! You, a young lady, have never cared about fame or gain. We don't know what offer we can make to impress you. Your selfless act of putting the Party and the people at heart is worthy of emulation by all of us comrades!"
Tian Cai felt a pang of annoyance after hearing this, but he finally nodded.
Tian Cai had no intention of refusing this matter. Firstly, it was a way for her to find something to do, and secondly, it provided a legitimate source of income. Most importantly, after taking up the post in the military hospital, she could avoid a lot of trouble, which was like giving herself double insurance.
Gu Changhe laughed heartily. "Doctor Xiaotian, I'll send someone over when I get back. We'll start construction tomorrow. I'll make sure the house is built before the weather gets cold, and the crew will be in place as soon as possible. What do you think?"
Commander Yu continued, "First, talk to the production team leader about where to build the house. Ours is a sanatorium, so three or five rooms won't be enough."
"Of course. We need at least eight or ten rooms, plus accommodation for doctors and nurses. We have to plan everything out!"
Tian Cai's face was filled with black lines when he heard this, "Isn't it a bit too big?"
"It's not a big deal. Let's just follow the minimum standards of the sanatorium. Leave this matter to me. I will make sure you are satisfied!" Gu Changhe patted his chest and promised.
Commander Deng also said, "Then I'll go back and ask Yang Qingwen to coordinate with the military hospital to send over a few doctors and nurses. I guarantee they're all experienced and can start work right away!"
"We need to run an electric wire over here. If we really want to build a sanatorium, we need electricity. If we have electricity, we can also get a grinding machine over here. Then we can grind the medicinal powder directly here. We can just supply the medicinal materials here, and we can also find a few people from the village to work."
"That won't work. The patients sent here for treatment are all from special forces. We can't be too close to the village one day. We still have to keep some distance. If we really ask the villagers to come and work, it will give them an opportunity to take advantage of us!"
"We need to discuss this place carefully!"
"The first thing to do is install a phone!"
"Yes, yes, it's convenient to talk about anything!"
Seeing them talking at once and giving advice, Tian Cai didn't understand anything anyway, so she just listened with great interest.
Speaking of places, the first thing Tian Cai thought of was the gentle slope across the small bridge. There were bushes on it, but no tall trees, so it was easy to clean. It was neither far nor near from here.
There is also a large open space next to Tian Cai’s house. We’ll see which place they choose then.
