From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 251 Unknown Elements
Jiang Yao already knew that his life span was short.

He came to see Mr. Ge not to see a doctor, but to learn something.

Before he could figure out how to start, Ge Lao, who had taken his pulse and diagnosed him, had already sat back on the recliner: "Young man, I can't make money from this big business you have here."

"Given your physical condition, you won't be sick or in trouble in the short term. If you want to live longer, you need to pay more attention to your health on a daily basis."

After saying a few words, he picked up the old book that he had just put aside.

It was an old-fashioned martial arts novel, which Mr. Ge read with great interest and soon immersed himself in it.

Seeing his appearance, Jiang Yao and Cheng Feier looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Mr. Ge, my friend wants to learn about Chinese medicine pharmacology."

"I know that you are an expert in this area, so I specially recommended you to him."

"With your ability, there will definitely be no problem teaching him how to identify and distinguish medicines."

Seeing Jiang Yao winking at her, Guan Jiahui understood what he meant. She walked to Ge Lao with a smile on her face and asked tentatively.

She met Mr. Ge a few years ago.

After knowing that Mr. Ge possessed superb medical skills, she came here more often than not. Through coaxing and persuasion, she managed to get a lot of good things from Mr. Ge.

Among the patients she treated, several suffering from severe depression were eventually cured. The methods she learned from Mr. Ge played a significant role.

"Take in a disciple? Not interested?"

"Girl Guan, whenever you come here, nothing good happens."

"Traditional Chinese medicine is extensive and profound. It is difficult to master it without studying for more than ten or twenty years. Considering your friend's age, do you think it is appropriate for him to be my apprentice?"

Taking his eyes off the novel in his hand, Mr. Ge glared at Guan Jiahui fiercely and responded unhappily.

What he said was not perfunctory, but was indeed the truth.

When it comes to Chinese medicine, the same condition can occur in different people, and the prescriptions given will be very different due to differences in their physical constitutions.

If you want to learn Chinese medicine well, you can't just read from the book. It takes many years of accumulation before you can barely become a master.

In today's society, people's hearts have long been impetuous, and it is really difficult to find a few people who are willing to spend so much time to inherit traditional Chinese medicine.

It is precisely for this reason that traditional Chinese medicine is gradually declining.

"Mr. Ge, I just need you to teach me some pharmacology so that I can know how to identify and distinguish medicines."

"It won't take up much of your time. You only need to spare two or three hours every evening to teach me for a month."

"Whether I can learn it or not is my own business. As for the remuneration, everything is easy to discuss."

Jiang Yao on the side spoke at the right time.

He had never thought about becoming Ge Lao's disciple.

He only has fifteen years left to live, so it is impossible for him to spend the rest of his life studying Chinese medicine.

Mr. Ge taught him things and he paid him enough compensation, that was all. He just treated this as a pure transaction.

His words fell into the ears of Mr. Ge, who rolled his eyes and ignored him.

"One hundred thousand a month!" Jiang Yao didn't care about Mr. Ge's attitude. He opened his mouth tentatively and said a number.

Seeing that the old man was not moved at all, he smiled and spoke again: "Two hundred thousand... five hundred thousand... one million..."

If a problem can be solved with money, then nothing is a problem.

Jiang Yao kept raising the price, and in just a few words, he had increased the reward to one million.

He has always been paying attention to Mr. Ge’s reaction.

After he said the number one million, he clearly saw that Mr. Ge, who seemed to be reading a book, had swallowed several times.

"Mr. Ge, if you miss this opportunity, you will miss this shop!"

"One month is all I need for you to teach me some pharmacology so that I can understand how to identify and recognize drugs. One million yuan as a reward is definitely a sky-high price."

"I'll give you another 200,000 yuan. If you still don't agree, then I have no choice but to ask for help from someone else!"

Jiang Yao smiled without commenting, and then he spoke again.

There are definitely more than just Mr. Ge who are old Chinese doctors in Hong Kong.

In other words, he could tell at a glance that he was dying and would not live long, which proved his extraordinary attainments in Chinese medicine and made Jiang Yao astonished.

Jiang Yaocai was willing to offer such a price to hire him to teach him pharmacology. If it was another old Chinese medicine doctor who didn't know the basics, he would be willing to pay him hundreds of thousands of yuan for just one month, which would be considered good.

After all, although he doesn't care about this little money, he can't ruin the market and waste money!
"This... Sir, do I start teaching you tonight?" Seeing that Jiang Yao seemed ready to leave, Mr. Ge threw the book in his hand aside and jumped up from the recliner.

In just three or two steps, he was standing in front of Jiang Yao with a smile on his face.

It is true that Mr. Ge has superb medical skills, but he can only see some patients secretly. Although his life is worry-free, he certainly cannot make a lot of money.

He has children and is not an elderly widower, so naturally he has some needs for money.

It wasn't like he was passing on his most hidden skill to Jiang Yao. He was just teaching him some pharmacological knowledge. He had already been very tempted by such a huge reward.

"My last name is Jiang, you can just call me Mr. Jiang."

"Villa No. 68 in Repulse Bay. I live there."

"Starting today, you just go over there around 6 or 7 in the evening and teach me."

"As for the remuneration, I will pay half after the night is over, and the rest will be paid in full a month later."

"That's all. Do you have any questions?" Jiang Yao nodded and spoke directly.

If he wanted to take Master Ge as his teacher, he would definitely have to take the initiative to visit him and ask for advice humbly, and also have to serve him carefully every day.

After all, the meaning of a master is different from that of a teacher today. Once a teacher, he is a father for life.

Jiang Yao didn't want to have another father above him, so he just treated this matter as a transaction. Since he was the one spending money, he naturally had the right to ask Mr. Ge to give him better service when he taught him things.

"No problem. Number 68 Repulse Bay? I know. We'll be there soon!" With a smile on his face, Mr. Ge nodded.

After leaving a business card for Mr. Ge, Jiang Yao called Guan Jiahui, and the two of them stood up and walked out of the house.

Inside a laboratory at HKU.

After receiving the commission from Cheng Feier, Luo Haisheng has been staying here for the past few days.

Since it was a private job and not a research topic assigned to him by the school, he did not ask his colleagues or other students to assist him.

He was alone from beginning to end in testing the materials given to him by Cheng Feier.

"That stone is just an ordinary stone. There is nothing special about it."

"The reason why a thumb-sized stone weighs more than 600 grams is because of the unknown metal contained in it."

"It took me five days to finally separate the unknown metal from the stone."

"Without this metal, the stone slag has returned to normal standards in terms of quality and hardness, and is not much different from ordinary stone."

……

Looking at a dark golden metal particle the size of a grain of rice placed on a piece of glass in front of him, Luo Haisheng felt as if he had seen the most beautiful treasure in the world.

He muttered to himself for a long time, and then he began to measure the physical properties of this unknown metal with the help of various instruments in the laboratory.

Immersed in the laboratory, time passed quickly and in the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

"This dark golden metal is not in the periodic table. It is a new element that has never been found on the Blue Planet."

"This is a great discovery. The existence of this unknown new element is the common wealth of all mankind. It should not be buried or become the private property of someone."

"As the first person to discover this new element, I automatically have the right to author this unknown metal."

"I've already thought about it. From now on, this unknown metal will be called luo element."

"Once I make this feat public, how can a mere assistant professor position match my status? By that time, I will enjoy a huge reputation in the industry and will naturally become an internationally renowned scholar."

……

Looking at the various data obtained by testing the dark golden unknown metal, Luo Haisheng was so ecstatic that he almost danced with joy.

He seemed to have already seen the shocking scene of himself standing at the awards ceremony, attracting everyone's attention and receiving countless honors after the unknown metal element came into the world.

He could already imagine the beautiful scene when he became successful and famous, those big shots whom he could only look up to in the past would surround him with flattery on their faces.

As for the agency agreement signed by Cheng Feier and him, he had subconsciously ignored it.

Compared with the glory and benefits brought by discovering unknown metal elements, breach of contract is nothing.
It was just a mere 20 million in liquidated damages. He believed that at that time, in order to win over him, the father of the luo element, there would be many people or forces willing to help him pay the liquidated damages.
