Chapter 68 High Salary
Old Tang nodded repeatedly as he listened, and said with emotion:
"Yes, yes, Dr. Gu is right! This old man has really learned his lesson! I'll definitely be more careful in the future!"
Dean Zhou and several doctors standing nearby echoed his sentiments, their gazes towards Gu Baobao filled with even more admiration.
This young comrade is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also has a high level of ideological awareness, and his words and actions make people feel comfortable.
Gu Baobao didn't say anything more. She took out her needle pouch from the inconspicuous cloth bag she carried with her, which she actually retrieved from her spatial storage.
Open it, and inside is a row of silver needles of varying lengths, gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
The doctors present, including Dean Zhou, immediately held their breath and stared intently at her every move.
Some of them had witnessed Gu Baobao's amazing skill in stopping the bleeding with needles during the last surgery, while others had only heard about it.
Regardless of the method, being able to observe her perform acupuncture up close at this moment is an extremely rare learning opportunity.
Gu Baobao carefully disinfected the silver needles with an alcohol swab, her movements meticulous.
Then, she looked at Mr. Tang:
"Grandpa Tang, relax. You might feel a little soreness, that's normal."
"Alright, come on then."
Mr. Tang trusted her a lot.
Gu Baobao picked up a long needle, her eyes instantly becoming focused and sharp.
Swift as lightning!
The first needle is inserted directly into the Tanzhong acupoint!
Then, the silver needles fell quickly, accurately, and steadily around the main acupoints of Tang Lao's chest, abdomen, and lower limbs, forming a needle array to unblock the flow of qi and strengthen the body's foundation.
Her technique was fluid and effortless, without the slightest hesitation.
The depth, angle, and twisting force of each stitch are just right.
Occasionally, when inserting needles into certain acupoints, her fingertips would pause almost imperceptibly, and a wisp of extremely weak, warm energy, diluted countless times with the spiritual spring energy, would quietly enter through the needle.
Too many, or it will arouse suspicion.
But this small amount is enough to maximize the effects of acupoints and gently stimulate those blocked nodes.
Old Tang felt a slight pain at the place where the needles were inserted, followed by a feeling of soreness, swelling and warmth. The heat flowed slowly along the meridians, and the places that were originally a bit sluggish and tight actually gradually relaxed.
He couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh.
The doctors watching from the sidelines were stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief.
The precision of her acupoint selection, the skill of her technique, and the decisiveness of her needle insertion... she doesn't seem like a teenage girl at all.
Many veteran Chinese medicine practitioners may never reach this level of skill in their entire lives!
In particular, the layout of the needle array subtly revealed an ancient charm that they couldn't understand, but which they felt was extremely sophisticated.
Twenty minutes later, Gu Baobao had her needles removed one by one.
Old Tang let out a long sigh of relief, feeling completely refreshed and more energetic than before, even his eyes seemed clearer.
"Dr. Gu, your acupuncture skills are truly amazing!"
He sincerely praised it.
While removing the needle and disinfecting it, Gu Baobao said modestly:
"Grandpa Tang, you flatter me. Acupuncture is only an aid; the key is for you to take the medicinal meals on time and get plenty of rest."
She carefully instructed the nurses on some nursing precautions and prescribed today's medicinal diet:
It's still an upgraded version with the addition of spiritual spring water!
Only then did he leave the ward with Dean Zhou and the others.
In the corridor, Dean Zhou asked impatiently:
"Little comrade, that acupuncture technique you just used..."
"I put together this prescription on the spot based on Grandpa Tang's pulse diagnosis, combined with some ancient prescriptions and ideas taught by my master."
Gu Baobao was well-prepared and answered flawlessly.
"The key is to unblock the middle jiao, harmonize qi and blood, and strengthen the body's foundation. If any of you teachers are interested, I can organize the specific acupoint combinations and key points of the techniques and explain them in detail in future classes."
She naturally steered the conversation toward teaching.
Upon hearing this, Dean Zhou's eyes lit up:
"Good, good, good! This is a must-talk! Little comrade, how's your preparation for the public lecture going? The higher-ups are taking it very seriously, and quite a few organizations have already signed up to send people to attend!"
Gu Baobao knew what was going on and replied:
"The lesson plan is being finalized. Dean, I have an idea regarding the course..."
She took the opportunity to briefly report to Dean Zhou on three sections: popularizing first aid skills, common emergency and critical care approaches, and simple tips combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine suitable for grassroots communities.
Dean Zhou nodded repeatedly, deeply moved.
"Great! Let's go with your idea! Just let us know what teaching aids, models, or facilities you need! The hospital will give you its full support!"
He seemed to remember something else, and lowered his voice to say:
"By the way, little comrade, your compensation has been approved by your superiors. It will be in accordance with the highest standards for special talent recruitment."
The salary is set at 387 yuan per month, plus subsidies such as food coupons, oil coupons, and cloth coupons. The employment relationship is with the hospital, and you enjoy all the hospital's benefits. You see…”
387!
Gu Baobao quickly did some mental calculations.
In an era when the monthly salary of ordinary workers was very low, 387 yuan was definitely a high wage!
And there are also various coupons and subsidies!
More than enough to support myself, and I can even save a considerable amount!
A huge weight was lifted from her heart, and a genuine smile appeared on her face:
"Thank you, Dean! Thank you for your concern! I am very satisfied and will definitely work hard to live up to the organization's trust!"
Seeing her smiling happily made Dean Zhou happy too. He gave her a few more instructions before letting her leave.
Gu Baobao got into Zhang Xiaobing's car in a good mood and returned to the family compound.
Now that her salary is sorted out, she can focus on her career!
I need to prepare a good meal of medicinal herbs for lunch, as well as lunch for the two "injured" family members.
In the afternoon, she would devote herself entirely to the research on the hemostatic powder.
