Chapter 322: Chapter 288: Just Go Be a Doctor in Our Country

After getting in the car, Lu Ming’s three friends became increasingly enthusiastic towards Lu Jiu.

After the earlier conversation, they genuinely admired Lu Jiu from the bottom of their hearts.

Soon, they arrived at Lobster City.

Before they even entered the private room, Xia Sijie took Dodson to the bathroom under the pretense of needing to use it.

“What’s the matter with you today? Why did you suddenly embarrass Lu Ming’s brother in front of him? What if his brother isn’t up to the standard?” Xia Sijie said.

Dodson replied, “In the car, I heard Lu Ming saying he wants to stay a few more days in Jianghan to film his brother more. You know, our work is meant to be broadcast internationally, and we can’t invest too much personal sentiment. If his brother is really good, there’s no harm in filming him, but if he’s not, and when journalists interview him and find out he’s not impressive, won’t it greatly reduce the value of our work?”

“Besides, whether he’s good or not is for me to decide. If he can’t tell, I could also go along and say there’s nothing wrong with me, preventing Lu Ming from being embarrassed in the middle. But unexpectedly, his brother turned out to be really impressive. Now, I don’t oppose Lu Ming filming his family.”

Xia Sijie said, “Couldn’t you discuss such matters privately with Lu Ming?”

Dodson shook his head, “I like to handle things directly. The way you suggested is too inefficient.”

Xia Sijie smiled helplessly, “Okay, that’s always been your style.”

While the two were chatting, in the private room, Lu Ming also showed off quite a bit, ordering a full lobster feast right away.

Clearly, this was intended to feed the three of them well in one meal.

To be fair, although lobsters are pricey, they certainly captivate the taste buds, especially for someone who’s never had them.

As for Lu Jiu, he only sampled two or three.

After all, he’s the type who doesn’t go crazy over food. Once he feels full, even if it’s a delicacy, he won’t take another bite.

The others weren’t so restrained, though. Once Xia Sijie and Dodson joined, everyone dug in enthusiastically.

“I’ve realized, Huaxia is still the best, there’s so much delicious food. It’s not like where we are, which is practically a desert for gourmet food.” Yuna said, wiping her greasy mouth while performing a surgical procedure on a shrimp.

“Your place is a potato country; everything’s made of potatoes. Luckily, there are Chinese restaurants; otherwise, I couldn’t stand a day there,” Lu Ming said.

“Agreed,” Xia Sijie added.

“It’s not too bad; at least it’s cleaner than our place,” Dodson remarked.

“Lu Ming, we’re going to stay at your house for a few days; this is too good. I want to eat more,” Yuna said.

“We’ll see. Tomorrow we’re visiting Lu Jiu’s hospital, and then planning which shots to film. If you feel like you can have more fun, we’ll delay the schedule; after all, there’s still time before the work is submitted for review,” Lu Ming said.

“But we should film as soon as possible. The Huaxia conference on traditional Chinese medicine’s intangible cultural heritage should be starting soon. We must submit the work there immediately after completing the graduation project; otherwise, if we miss it, the teacher might not organize it,” Xia Sijie said.

“Then forget it; let’s stick to the original plan. If I want to eat more, Lu Ming, you’ll have to mail it to me,” Yuna said.

“Then you’d have to pay for it yourself.” Lu Ming laughed.

“No problem, as long as I can eat it, I’ll pay whatever it costs!” Yuna exclaimed.

“She’s quite the rich lady, are you sure you don’t want to milk her a bit on shipping?” Xia Sijie laughed.

“That’s true, I almost forgot Yuna is Dr. Li’s apprentice granddaughter, and she has a listed company at home!” Lu Ming smiled.

Yuna raised the half lobster body, “I see a hint of wickedness in your eyes, trying to swindle my money? Hmph, impossible!”

Lu Jiu, listening to their conversation, also gleaned that the Chinese medicine intangible cultural heritage conference is likely just a few months away.

But such conferences generally come in two types: one organized locally, like if Hidden Dragon City in Beihu Province hosts a Chinese medicine intangible cultural heritage conference, then practitioners from surrounding areas and some important representatives would be invited, but the influence wouldn’t be too significant.

The other is organized by the national government, and such an event would be much elevated, with most top Chinese medicine practitioners from across the country participating. The speakers at the conference would likely all be of the National Master of Chinese Medicine level.

Being invited to such a conference is a form of recognition of your status.

It signifies you’ve entered the national circle of Chinese medicine.

“Lu Jiu, I heard from Dad that you’ve taken the National Master of Chinese Medicine as your teacher, so when Jinling hosts the Chinese medicine intangible cultural heritage conference this time, he should take you? I’ve heard from my teacher that one of the main participants is named Huang Fusheng, and he’s one of the keynote speakers.” Lu Ming said.

Oh?

Lu Jiu really didn’t know!

“Is that so? The teacher hasn’t mentioned this to me. But the hospital is quite busy now; even if he takes me, I might not be able to find the time,” Lu Jiu said.

Lu Ming got more serious, “If you can go to this conference, it’s best that you do. As a Chinese medicine practitioner, you definitely shouldn’t just study at home. Progress comes from exchanges with peers. Moreover, not only people from Huaxia but also foreigners, like De Hans, will be participating, and a few acupuncturists, including one of the keynote speakers.”

“Remember what I told you during the New Year? Someone said acupuncture is theirs!”

“I think you should go and find out how Chinese medicine is perceived abroad; it might be beneficial for your future development.”

Yuna chimed in, “If you ask me, Lu Ming’s brother, you might as well go and be a doctor in our country. There, if you master acupuncture and are recognized by five acupuncturists, you can get certified. And the top acupuncturists are almost all Chinese, so if you go, you can practice medicine right away.”

“With your medical skill, I can confidently say you could earn millions in just half a year, in Euros. My teacher’s teacher is earning so much he can’t keep track anymore. They say he just bought a private jet recently because too many people seek his services. Some people can’t get to his hospital, but offer particularly high fees, so he flies to see them.”

Is it that outrageous?

Lu Jiu couldn’t help but laugh!

It’s just a pity he has no plans to move abroad.

Sure, earning money from foreigners is satisfying, but if it were just for money, he wouldn’t have returned to Jianghan.

Moreover, here he has his parents, familiar friends, and patients who have consistently sought his help. Leaving doesn’t seem possible.
