To be honest, Ren Xiaosu could tell at a glance that this girl named Meng Nan was not particularly interested in Liang Ce.
Or rather, many women were not particularly interested in men their own age. That was because girls matured early, and men their own age were always a little more childish than girls.
But that did not mean Liang Ce did not stand a chance. As long as he persevered, his luck might turn around and he might be able to move her.
Right now, Ren Xiaosu felt that Liang Ce had no chance at all. After all, no one would fall in love with a retard.
At this moment, Liang Ce was walking towards Ren Xiaosu in tears. He knew he was done for the moment he said those words, but he could not blame Ren Xiaosu. After all, there did not seem to be any problems with what Ren Xiaosu had taught him. He was the one who did not put it to good use.
Ren Xiaosu comforted him softly, "It's fine. There's still a lot of time on the way to the Kong Clan, so you still have a chance."
"I hope so." Liang Ce looked up and sighed.
"I'm curious about something." Ren Xiaosu asked Liang Ce, "How often does the Trinity Institute go to the Kong Clan for an academic exchange?"
"Once every three years. I think that's how the Trinity Institute got its name." Liang Ce replied, "It's been going on for more than a dozen years now, and there's always something to be gained from each exchange. It seems like this is the only way for the medical world to break through the technological blockade of the consortiums. In the early years, the consortiums did not allow such academic exchanges to exist. Elder Wang's father strongly recommended it with his life. He sat in front of the official residence of the Wang Clan's patriarch at the time and said that any technology in the world could be blocked, except for medical skills. That was because the lives of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people were at stake. What else in the world was more important than life? Then he sat at the door for three days before dying of a heart attack. That was how the medical exchange came about, and how the Trinity Institute came to be. "
This was the academic freedom that Wang Jing's father had exchanged his life for.
Ren Xiaosu looked at Wang Jing. So this guy had inherited his father's dying wish and spent his entire life fighting for this cause?
That was why Wang Shengzhi had arranged for Ren Xiaosu to be part of this medical exchange team. There had been medical exchanges for decades, and now that it was time for the exchange, it was only natural for him to go to the Kong Clan.
Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, "I see that the medicine you prescribe to the patients is free. Did the Wang Clan pay for it?"
"No." Liang Ce shook his head. "They were all donated by Elder Wang Clan at the celebrity banquets. Every time, the money raised was exchanged for medicine and used to treat the refugees outside the stronghold. That's why everyone has such a high prestige in the eyes of the Wang Clan refugees. However, even so, the amount of medicine is still inadequate compared to the number of refugees. "
At this moment, Wang Jing went to check on the medicine they had brought with them. "How much medicine do we have left?"
Meng Nan put down the lunch box in his hand and took out a ledger: "There are two-thirds left."
Wang Jing was stunned. "There's still so many of them?"
Under normal circumstances, the medicine they brought with them would be used up in the morning. But this time, it seemed like they had not used up much of it.
However, Wang Jing immediately realized it was probably thanks to that young man. As a matter of fact, when Ren Xiaosu treated the patients, he only used his own medicine and did not use up any of the supplies he had in stock.
At this moment, some refugees had started gathering outside the temporary medical camp. They were all refugees who had rushed back from various factories to see the doctor. As some of the factories were quite far away, it would take them two hours to get back.
Wang Jing turned around and saw Ren Xiaosu carrying a huge box out of the trunk of the luxury off-road vehicle. He asked, "What's in that box of yours …"
"Oh, it's all my ancestral medicine," Ren Xiaosu said with a smile as he looked at the patients outside.
Wang Jing was deeply touched. Even though the young man made it sound easy, he knew the medicine was probably worth a lot.
This young man named Ren Xiaosu was very young, but he was so kind-hearted. How respectable!
Wang Jing said, "I have a question. Are you Mr. Cao Qingju's disciple?"
Ren Xiaosu was taken aback. Then he said with a smile, "No, no, I'm not qualified to be Mr. Cao Qingju's disciple."
Wang Jing was overjoyed. "Good, good, good!"
This journey would probably take more than a month, so he still had plenty of time to observe this young man!
Ren Xiaosu did not continue chatting with Wang Jing. After all … Wang Jing was not as important as the gratitude tokens!
"Liang Ce, come over and give me a hand. Meng Nan, come over and help suture the patients' wounds. Hurry up and get the patients over here!" Ren Xiaosu shouted.
Liang Ce was overjoyed. Meanwhile, Meng Nan did not say anything. She immediately took out the medical equipment and got ready to cooperate.
One by one, the refugees came over to be treated. Ren Xiaosu treated them one by one. Then he calmly accepted their gratitude and kindly watched them leave.
In just one afternoon, Ren Xiaosu's gratitude tokens had increased from more than 1,000 to more than 2,000.
Initially, Ren Xiaosu felt that unlocking the next level of the weapon was still a long way off. Where could he find 10,000 gratitude tokens?
But now, he realized Wang Shengzhi had given him a big gift!
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu suddenly heard the voice from the palace say, "As the host has obtained 1,888 gratitude tokens in a single day, the 'Grateful Heart' achievement has been unlocked. Rewarded with five Basic Skill Duplication Scrolls!"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Why hadn't he heard of this before? He could even get a reward for unlocking an achievement?
Before this, Ren Xiaosu knew the palace still had many secrets waiting for him to uncover. For example, he had accidentally stumbled upon the City Crusher skill after his stats broke through 10 points.
There was even an achievement system now?!
Ren Xiaosu asked in his mind, "Are there any other achievements I can get … No, I mean, are there any other achievements I can complete?"
"Unauthorized to inform," the palace answered emotionlessly.
"Alright then." Ren Xiaosu was a little unsatisfied. Although the reward was only a Basic Skill Duplication Scroll, it was a huge amount.
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu worked even harder. By nightfall, his gratitude tokens had finally broken through the 3,000 mark. This was even after he had been using them to exchange for the black medicine. Otherwise, he would have gotten even more!
Ren Xiaosu thought happily. With this, even if Yang Xiaojin used the black bullet, he would not be looked down upon for being too stingy.
As the sky gradually darkened, Wang Jing came to Ren Xiaosu's side and said in concern, "Classmate Xiaosu, why don't you get some rest? You've been busy all day, so it's about time you get some rest. Your health is your capital."
Ren Xiaosu said righteously, "In the face of life, what do my personal gains and losses count for?"
Wang Jing was immediately filled with respect. "Young friend, I'm impressed by your noble character and unquestionable integrity!"
"You're being too polite, Sir. I'm willing to stay in town for a few more days to seek treatment!" Ren Xiaosu said seriously.
Next to him, Yang Xiaojin got out of the car. She pulled Ren Xiaosu aside and asked softly, "Aren't you going to save Wang Yun anymore?"
Ren Xiaosu asked, "Who's Wang Yun?!"
Yang Xiaojin was speechless.
