When the Doctor Uses A Hack

In the beginning, one suture could generate three tasks, but now the tasks have started to cut corners, which is an unethical action.

Delightfully looking at the 500 tendon sutures, Chen Cang suddenly became expectant.

What kind of reward would there be for completing two tasks at the same time?

“The Tendon Rehabilitation Guide” is a pretty nice thing; as an important component of sports medicine, it plays an essential role in later recovery.

Chen Cang felt there was a lot of potential in this thing!

He cautiously clicked on the virtual screen, opened the unfinished tasks, and seeing so, so many tasks, Chen Cang suddenly felt full of passion and fighting spirit.

He had not expected that just a Qian Lin and a Jing Ran could generate so many tasks for him.

Now Chen Cang was feeling somewhat regretful. After so many years, why did he have only Geng Yan as an ex-girlfriend? He should have dated more—not for anything else, but for those enticing and tempting tasks!

Looking at the full screen of tasks, Chen Cang began to pick them one by one, aiming to tackle each in turn!

There was no point in thinking about the award category. There were no competitions lately, no national scholarships to inspire, no national contests he’d heard about.

As for honors… this should be neither too big nor too small a problem, since Director Zhang Youfu had said he wanted to invite him to join the Dongyang Province Hepatobiliary Surgery Society. However, whether he could become a director was uncertain…

The research goals would soon be met. Once his “Liver Transplantation” article was published, he would quickly reap the rewards!

The first financial goal was at the level of 2 million. As of now, Chen Cang estimated his total worth to be only around a million, still half away from 2 million. But that was not a big problem; a few more breast augmentations, cosmetic surgeries, and he should be there quickly. This weekend, he should go to the cosmetic hospital and talk to Zhang Zhixin properly, sign the contract he had designed, and then get in touch with Yang Tao to hang out his shingle, with the prices clearly marked, to find more rich ladies.

As for the girlfriend task…

Chen Cang suddenly thought of a good idea!

The task hint was to have a good-looking girlfriend. It didn’t specify for how many minutes, right?

He could totally have an unforgettable and heart-engraving, even if only one-second-long, fake romance!

Even a love affair social transaction was possible!

Chen Cang, looking at Qin Yue busily writing medical records, thought that the system only stipulated good-looking—it didn’t specify big or small bears, right?

With that thought, Chen Cang decided to look for Qin Yue to strike off a task.

He got up and scurried over, “Qin Yue, Qin Yue.”

Qin Yue kept her eyes glued to the computer, “Let… ”

Chen Cang hummed in acknowledgment and nodded, “What do you think of me?”

Qin Yue, “Not much.”

Chen Cang, “Come on, say it properly, seriously, tell the truth!”

Qin Yue rolled her eyes without saying much, ever since the last time Chen Cang sent her a picture of lung echinococcosis during a meal, Qin Yue was ready to block him at any moment.

Chen Cang persistently nagged, “Don’t be like that, give me a chance, and give yourself a chance. Let me be your boyfriend for one second, how about it?”

Qin Yue was stunned, her face full of incredulity as she looked at Chen Cang, “One second is enough for what?! Chen Cang, you’re way too quick!”

Qin Yue’s voice suddenly increased, causing Chen Cang to lose his balance. Wang Qian, Shi Na, Wang Yong, and the head nurse all turned around together, staring at Chen Cang with eyes full of… sympathy!

Chen Cang was immediately bewildered!

He hurriedly waved his hands, “Everyone’s got it wrong; it’s not what you’re thinking!”

…

Chen Cang looked at Qin Yue, thinking that this task would have to be postponed.

What’s the need for love?

Men should prioritize their career.

Five hundred tendon sutures, it is not difficult, but it is not simple either.

As an emergency department in a public hospital, there is one advantage: abundant resources.

The 120 emergency center is constantly on the run,, there’s no shortage of patients needing emergency care; the fear isn’t that the emergency department has no patients, but that it lacks capability.

Without any promotion, we’d get ten to eight tendon suture cases daily, and now with dedicated advertising, this should increase significantly.

The provincial second hospital has no department for hand surgery, which allowed the nearby private Wu Bureau Orthopedics Hospital to gradually boom.

They keenly tapped into the business opportunity, spotted the surrounding deficiencies, put effort into it, and started organizing a hand surgery department after bringing in equipment and machinery from outside the area.

However, their charges are naturally quite a bit higher than public hospitals, but their business is really good, and the results are pretty decent as well.

But Chen Cang was curious about one thing, whether the provincial second hospital didn’t set up a hand surgery department because of lack of personnel, or some other reason?

He even speculated whether there was an unspoken secret between the owner of the private hospital and the upper echelons of the provincial second hospital.

However, these things didn’t concern Chen Cang much.

No sooner had his voice died away than the nurse started calling out from the outside.

Chen Cang stood up and went out directly; the atmosphere in the office was too oppressive, it was more comfortable out there completing tasks.

He saw a middle-aged man in a white coat standing in the emergency department, anxiously holding a big wad of tissue wrapped around his left hand.

“Doctor! How much is tendon suture?”

As soon as Chen Cang came out, the patient’s first question was this.

Chen Cang was momentarily taken aback, “That depends on the specific circumstances, come with me, let’s see what exactly happened.”

The man seemed to be a chef, carrying a smell of food on him as he ran in.

The man hesitated, “But… if it’s too expensive, I might…”

Chen Cang shook his head, “Let’s take a look at the situation first. Tendon suture can vary significantly, and it’s hard to say whether nerves have been damaged.”

The man gritted his teeth and followed Chen Cang into the treatment room. After Chen Cang pulled off the tissue from the man’s injured left hand, the cut on the second joint of his index finger gradually became visible.

The man grimaced with a smile, “I cut my hand while chopping meat. Good thing I pulled back on the force, or my finger would have come off.”

Chen Cang nodded, rinsed the injury with saline, then disinfected with hydrogen peroxide which doesn’t stain, before examining it briefly with tweezers.

There was not any major issue, just that the extensor tendon of the index finger was half severed, and the blood vessels were somewhat damaged, but no big issue. The main concern now was that the tendon damage was quite severe.

Chen Cang made an estimate and said, “Including medication and examination, the cost will be around 1000 yuan.”

Upon hearing this, the man immediately flinched, “My goodness, isn’t that too expensive? More than a thousand just to sew this up, I can’t afford it, I can’t afford it, I won’t have it sewed anymore, I’ll go to a small clinic and get it patched up.”

“But thank you, doctor, for cleaning it up for me, oh, and could I have a couple of gauze pads?”

Chen Cang still patiently explained, “Actually, there is a significant difference in tendon suturing. Clinics are cheaper because they use different materials, and I can’t vouch for their technique, but mainly the difference is the cost of the suture material.”

“For tendon suturing, we recommend using microfibrillar and prolene because the body has a smaller reaction to these types of sutures, their surface has an antibacterial coating, which can help the tendon heal stronger and prevent adhesion during suture, without affecting mobility afterwards.”

“This is for the sake of your future recovery; it’s not that I’m trying to overcharge you.”

PS: Today everyone thought there would be an update at noon, but there wasn’t. That was my fault, I didn’t make it clear, and I apologize to everyone.

Usually, if there is an update at noon, I will inform everyone in the evening’s update, stating updates will be at 12 PM.

Today I was organizing the outline, sorting out the plot, as I realized after writing the daily events that the main story was dragging behind, so I was busy all day. Also, updating has been a bit tiring recently, and the pressure is high.

There are only three chapters tonight. There will be two updates at noon tomorrow.

Finally, thank you all for your support, I truly appreciate it. As a seasoned author, I’m working hard to finish this book well. In terms of updating, I feel I am quite diligent.
