Chapter 387: Chapter 387: Super Dungeon (Thanks to Alliance Hierarch desmondsze for the reward!)

After knocking, Chen Cang entered the director’s office and saw Xia Gaofeng and Tao Zi inside.

Chen Cang nodded in greeting and then said, “Director Xia, you wanted to see me.”

Xia Gaofeng smiled slightly, “Take a seat, Chen. There’s something Tao Zi and I would like to discuss with you and hear your thoughts on.”

Chen Cang was somewhat curious but still took a seat.

Xia Gaofeng handed a document to Chen Cang, “Take a look at this, Chen.”

Chen Cang received it with both hands and after reading, his eyes widened in shock.

The National Cardiovascular Surgery Skills Competition!

Chen Cang’s heart began to beat faster. Could he actually participate in this competition?

The National Surgery Skills Competition was held annually, and it often covered multiple disciplines, just held at different times.

In May of that year, Chen Lao Da had represented the hospital in the general surgery skill competition and even brought back an Excellence Award.

It had to be said that Chen Lao Da’s general, especially gastrointestinal surgery skills, were quite impressive, handling emergencies such as digestive tract, gastrointestinal, and spleen surgeries very well.

However… usually, those who participate in such surgeries are senior attending physicians; someone as young as Chen Cang rarely gets the chance.

But… Chen Cang was eager to participate!

He longed to compete on the same stage with those masters, to see how big the outside world really was.

[Ding! Triggered the National Cardiovascular Surgery Skills Competition instance! During the instance, each successful PK will result in loot or skills!]

After hearing the system notification, Chen Cang started to breathe even more rapidly.

Not participating in such an instance would be a huge loss for him!

With this in mind, Chen Cang looked up at the two directors and quickly asked,

“This… Director Xia, Director Tao… can I?”

Tao Zi smiled slightly, “Why couldn’t you!”

Chen Cang pointed to the registration requirements, “It says here that a hospital must nominate a member, and it has to be a member of the Cardiac Surgery Society. I meet neither of these conditions… not even one.”

Chen Cang knew that the hospital had many experienced and senior doctors, a huge group of young doctors, and he… really wasn’t much in comparison.

Moreover, the competition would likely not be limited to a single surgery, and in that area, he didn’t have an edge either. After all, the cardiac surgeries he could perform were quite limited, having just opened the door to the pericardium, with a long way still to go!

And as for the Cardiac Surgery Society, he wasn’t a member either.

Xia Gaofeng said directly, “That’s all easy to arrange. Tao Zi and I happen to be the vice-chairmen of the Dongyang Province Cardiac Surgery Society. If you want to join, isn’t that very straightforward?”

“Besides, as for the hospital nomination, if your Provincial Second Hospital doesn’t nominate you, our First Hospital of Dongyang will. You belong to both, after all.”

Upon hearing Xia Gaofeng’s words, Tao Zi immediately frowned, “Why wouldn’t our Provincial Second Hospital nominate him? Stop trying to poach. Chen this time is going to represent our Provincial Second Hospital in the competition.”

Tao Zi stood up, walked over to Chen Cang, “Chen! You will represent Provincial Second Hospital in this competition. Although… this is not a large-scale event and not many people pay attention to it, it is still an honor within our circle. Dongyang has been at the bottom for years, it’s time for a change this year, right?”

Chen Cang looked at the two directors, “Hmm! I do want to join! But… I always feel that my level and technique aren’t quite there.”

Tao Zi and Xia Gaofeng looked at Chen Cang with a slight smile, “Take a look at the date. It’s not until the end of the year. We just wanted to inform you in advance and focus on training you.”

“After you go back, prepare an application to join the society, and we will approve it for you.”

…

…

After discussing with the two directors, Chen Cang left the office, to be honest, he was a bit excited!

Large-scale copy tasks are a rare encounter.

Originally, Chen Cang was not confident, after all, there were so many types of cardiovascular surgery, and he… felt a bit insecure.

But through the two directors, Chen Cang learned that actually, this competition’s surgery scope was not very broad, primarily focusing on major vascular surgeries.

Chen Cang made up his mind to thoroughly study this area of surgery during this period.

After leaving the hospital, Chen Cang was preparing to return when he suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

He hesitated for a moment, then answered it.

As a doctor, it’s common to have a bunch of strangers’ phone numbers on your mobile since you can’t possibly save all your patients’ numbers in your phone, can you?

That’s why many doctors have two mobile phones.

One for personal use, and one for work.

Moreover, many doctors prefer to use those particularly small black and white mobile phones for work, which can only make calls and send text messages, similar to those used by the elderly, because of their super long battery life.

“Hello, is this Mr. Chen Cang?” The caller had a voice around forty years old, a middle-aged male with a clear and rich voice, likely quite healthy – this was the image Chen Cang conjured up as a doctor.

Chen Cang hummed in acknowledgment, “Mhm, hello, I am Chen Cang.”

Wang Zhi quickly said, “Mr. Chen, hello, I am Wang Zhi, the general manager of Zheng Real Estate’s Coastal New District.”

“Mr. Zheng has asked me to check some information with you to expedite the process of settling the house issue.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang recalled that matter.

He had called Zheng Guotan last time wanting that house, but he forgot about it this week because of all the other things going on.

“Oh! Hello, Manager Wang.”

Wang Zhi smiled, “Mr. Chen, when will you have time? If it’s convenient, please come to our sales office so we can finalize the subsequent procedures for the house…”

Chen Cang checked the time; there wasn’t much to do if he went to the hospital at this hour, so he decided not to go.

“I’ll come over now, please wait a moment,” Chen Cang said directly.

Wang Zhi nodded, “Mhm, no rush, call me when you get here.”

Chen Cang’s face lit up with joy, thinking about having a house soon, and he felt very pleased.

Taking advantage of the fact that Qin Yue didn’t know yet, Chen Cang decided to give her a surprise.

As for the matter of money… Chen Cang currently had about 3 million on hand, but… the weekend was approaching, and after conducting those few scheduled Long Bear surgeries, it should be enough, right?

In a hurry, he went to the Coastal New District, and Wang Zhi’s staff were already waiting at the entrance.

The staff directly led Chen Cang into Wang Zhi’s office.

Chen Cang had thought it would be quite troublesome, but everything turned out to be straightforward.

A specialist was there to explain all the precautions; all Chen Cang had to do was sign.

In under twenty minutes, Chen Cang had taken care of everything.

But…

Chen Cang noticed something – wasn’t he supposed to pay? Why was there no step involving payment?

ps: I find the feeling of waking up to see rewards… fantastically satisfying, heh heh, thank you, boss!
