Chapter 280 The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost King
Wu Tao has never been the rigid type; it's normal for him to help those around him with things.
Chen Fang was fully aware of Masayoshi Son's thoughts. During their several conversations, he had also revealed his own ideas.
Wu Tao said that he would only be a doctor for the rest of his life, but if his brother-in-law wanted to pursue a career in politics, he could ask him for favors.
Wu Tao's words almost moved Son Masayoshi and Chen Fang to tears. It was clearly Wu Tao who was helping others treat their illnesses; it should be the others thanking Wu Tao.
Now, he's willing to shamelessly beg for benefits for Sun Zhen, which is clearly for his own family's sake.
Masayoshi Son and Chen Fang were moved, and Sun Jiayi was no exception.
The expectations of his parents and the future of his older brother all rested on the shoulders of his fiancé.
If Wu Tao didn't love her, how could he have paid such a price?
Wu Tao expressed his feelings, and Sun Zhengyi and Chen Fang naturally became even more eager for Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi to get married as soon as possible.
This is also why Sun Zhengyi and Chen Fang came to visit Wu Zhiwen and his family on their very first day in Beijing. Since both children were willing and both sets of parents were satisfied with the marriage, the atmosphere during their meeting was very harmonious.
These days, there aren't many rules about marriage. Besides, Wu Tao has a house and a car, so all he needs to do is buy some appliances and bedding for the home.
Both families agreed to hold the wedding on May Day, and they plan to do so in Beijing.
Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi also want to go back to their hometown, Wujiazhuang.
It's to show those in Wujiazhuang who mocked the Wu family behind their backs how outstanding Wu Tao is now.
Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi did not object to this arrangement.
It's only because of this era that Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi are together; otherwise, Wu Tao would have been together long ago. He's been keeping his feelings bottled up, just waiting to marry Sun Jiayi as soon as possible.
Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi sat there obediently, waiting for the two families to finalize the wedding arrangements.
In the following days, Wu Zhiwen and his second uncle Wu Zhiwu also frequently met with Masayoshi Son, and they would go out for meals and drinks together.
Mother Liu Lan and second aunt Chang Jing, accompanied by Chen Fang and Sun Jiayi, went to the department store outside.
Wu Tao secretly slipped two thousand yuan to his mother, knowing that he was now wealthy and would not let his mother suffer.
Wu Tao earns 400 yuan a month now, and in just a few months he has already saved nearly 3,000 yuan.
When news of Wu Tao's engagement spread, many people were waiting to give him gifts when he got married.
Although the amount of money given as a gift is not large now, everyone hopes to give more when giving gifts to Wu Tao.
Wu Tao has treated many patients at the factory hospital these past few months. Although he is a doctor at the factory hospital, saving lives is his job.
But in the patients' minds, without Dr. Wu, they would probably be either dead or crippled.
They would be heartless if they weren't moved by such a great kindness.
The achievements of the Kyoto Steel Plant No. 2's factory hospital over the past few months have also satisfied the plant's leaders.
Wu Tao's current position is too special, and the factory naturally understands what it means for Wu Tao to hold the position of expert of the Health Bureau.
It could be said that the leaders Wu Tao served were people that even the factory leaders couldn't curry favor with.
The key point is that Wu Tao never showed any special qualities and continued to stay at the factory hospital every day.
Occasionally, Zhang Jiale would drag me out for a trip, usually because I had received an urgent mission.
With Wu Tao's participation in several missions, the leaders of the Health Bureau truly understood how good Wu Tao's medical skills were.
These messages don't need to be kept secret, so the Health Bureau has long considered Wu Tao its trump card.
No matter how big the crisis, just saying "Go and get Dr. Wu" makes everyone feel inexplicably at ease.
Wu Tao's unpredictable acupuncture skills had long been a legend in the capital.
Those scions of prominent families who were fortunate enough to meet me would boast to others with incredible eloquence.
It seems that no matter how serious the patient's condition, as long as Wu Tao uses his silver needles, he can immediately be brought back to life.
In particular, on one recent occasion, a leader suddenly fell into a coma at night, and by the time he was discovered, he was already near death.
The health bureau leaders called Wu Tao over, initially with the attitude that "it's enough that we've done our duty and at least our people have come."
When Wu Tao arrived, he only glanced at the patient before suddenly stopping everyone from moving him. He then inserted acupuncture needles and urgently had someone bring some Western medicine for injection.
The patient soon woke up, was hospitalized for a week, and then went home.
From that day on, Wu Tao's reputation was that of a reincarnation of Hua Tuo. In particular, his unpredictable acupuncture techniques somehow earned him the nickname "The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost King."
Of course, this name came about when Zhang Jiale was curious and asked Wu Tao if his acupuncture technique had a name.
Wu Tao was just teasing Zhang Jiale, so he casually came up with the name "Ghost King Thirteen Needles".
Then Zhang Jiale believed it to be true and actually told others about the name as a huge secret.
For a time, everyone believed that Wu Tao's acupuncture technique was truly inherited.
In fact, people had previously wondered why Wu Tao had such high medical skills at such a young age.
Calling him a genius seems a bit unreasonable. Now everyone seems to understand that Wu Tao must have had a master mentoring him.
Some people even found out that Wu Tao's second uncle was also a doctor, and suspected that this man was the mastermind behind Wu Tao.
Even professors from several universities in Beijing, specializing in medicine, came to his door, hoping that Wu Tao could teach at the schools and impart the Ghost King Thirteen Needles technique to everyone.
Wu Tao was both amused and exasperated; he had no real acupuncture techniques whatsoever. The effectiveness was entirely due to the results of his own private research and practice over hundreds of years.
It would be too difficult for him to teach now. Back in the cultivation world, he was just bored and had too much lifespan, so he started cultivating.
To create another one just like him, the only way would be for the other person to also have a lifespan of several hundred years.
Wu Tao couldn't explain these things, and could only claim that his sect had ordered him not to teach medical skills privately.
This statement made Wu Tao's sect seem even more mysterious to everyone, and no one dared to cause any more trouble.
At that time, people in China believed in all sorts of mysterious things without a doubt, and a few years later, Qigong even became a truth that everyone believed to be true.
Many people now speculate that Wu Tao possesses genuine artifacts.
Later, some people hoped that Wu Tao could teach them some fitness techniques. Wu Tao knew that if he refused, he would probably offend them.
He simply took out the Eight Pieces of Brocade and taught it to others. Once the news spread, everyone who could talk to Wu Tao wanted to learn it.
What could Wu Tao do? So, he ended up becoming a fitness instructor.
He taught the Eight Pieces of Brocade to dozens of people before the hype died down. Perhaps it was psychological, but many people said behind his back that Wu Tao's teaching was particularly effective.
