The First Book The Empty Spirit Chapter 16: Early Discharge

  "But this time we lost five brothers for nothing, the government's compensation is not enough. Besides, that night, we all risked our lives, can't let one person take all the benefits!"

  Maozi was not reconciled, he tried to persuade Wang Yaozu. Many people in the stock were also not reconciled, actually it was not because five people died, nor was it because last night's bitter battle almost killed many people. The biggest reason is that the amount of gold is not small, Shi An did not divide the gold bars, and everyone is unhappy.

  "It's not about leading troops like this. My Iron Head at least knows one principle, the emperor doesn't send starving soldiers. Everyone is fighting for the party and country, bleeding and sweating. Those of us in this line of work, we're all risking our lives with our heads on a chopping block, if we can't even get a little benefit, then why bother doing this job? There are plenty of ways to make money in the military and police!"

  Tie Tou was also dissatisfied, he rarely spoke so much and made sense. Everything is caused by Jin Tiao's trouble, people die for money! Moreover, once this kind of thing happens, it will happen again, if we don't split this time, next time we won't split either.

  "Alright, it's only at times like these that you guys become so united. Actually, we didn't need to make such a big fuss to get Old Stone to hand out those gold bars. It just takes wasting some time and everyone being sincere and united; if you can't clench your fists together, then you won't be able to get the gold bars!"

  Wang Yaozu had actually been moved from the beginning. If there was a benefit to be gained, it would be foolish not to take it. He worked hard for what? Wasn't it all for money and power? Moreover, Wang Yaozu had once sworn an oath that he would never again take a single silver dollar from his family, and he would also return everything he had spent before, so he wouldn't owe his family anything anymore.

  "Please arrange for Vice-Dean Wang!" Tie Tou and Mao Zi were delighted to see that Wang Yaozu had finally agreed. Moreover, whether this matter succeeds or not, the one who took the lead is Wang Yaozu, so Shi An'guo can only blame Wang Yaozu, and has nothing to do with them, the ones who egged him on.

  "It's simple, from now on, Shanghai will investigate the morale of our team members. Everyone looks like they're about to die. As long as everyone except me and Le Dage is in this state, Old Stone will eventually compromise. But what's crucial is that not a single member of your two teams can change their stance under Old Stone's pressure. If that happens, not only will we fail to get the gold bars, but there will be even more trouble later on, which will also be your responsibility as team leaders."

  Wang Yaoyu isn't that stupid, the matter obviously shifted to Tie Tou and Mao Zi again, but those gold bars were just too enticing. Shanghai is a place of indulgence, as long as you have money, there's nothing you can't enjoy. It's precisely because of this that everyone from top to bottom tries every means to make a profit.

  Tie Tou and Mao Zi finally agreed, because the temptation was too great. Besides, if things really failed, Tie Tou and Mao Zi would have plenty of opportunities to shift all the blame onto Wang Yaozu's head.

  Tie Tou and Mao Zi finally left, Wang Yaozu let out a sigh of relief. If this continues, every time they engage in such mental struggles, Wang Yaozu feels very tired, but also finds it quite interesting, at least life won't be so boring. However, Wang Yaozu also feels exhausted, and he thinks it's best not to stay in the hospital for too long, it's better to go home early.

  That batch of gold bars was small change, Wang Yaozu still had big money to make, this time Wang Yaozu had a reason to rest due to injury. After staying in the hospital for one day and two nights, Wang Yaozu requested to be discharged.

  But it's not that simple to be discharged from the hospital. After Wang Ya-zu made the request on the second day in the morning, the hospital immediately sent someone to conduct a full-body examination on Wang Ya-zu, which is responsible for the patient and also fears that if Wang Ya-zu goes back and has some problems, the hospital will not be able to afford it.

  "Sister, just take a casual look, it's just a scratch. The bullet didn't go in and there's no poison, so after getting an injection, tetanus won't set in. If this were on the battlefield, we could only use urine to kill the toxin and roughly bandage it up. No need for all these messy checks!"

  The one who performed the examination on Wang Ya-zu was Di Wu-ya. The field hospital seemed to know that Di Wu-ya knew Wang Ya-zu, and her husband was also a person from the Shanghai Investigation Division, so they sent her over to help Wang Ya-zu with his full-body examination. In this way, even if there were any mistakes, the hospital could easily explain them away.

  "Take off your top, let me take a good look. On the battlefield, there's no way, many soldiers think it's just a minor injury and don't care about it, but in the end, many people die from infection. Now I'm just doing a regular check on you, don't talk so much. This is responsible for you, as well as for the medical profession."

  Wu Ya patted Wang Yaozu's uninjured shoulder, and Wang Yaozu could only be honest. After taking off his top, he let Wu Ya do whatever she wanted. She pinched here, looked there, and even touched the wound a few times before re-bandaging it for Wang Yaozu.

  "If you're discharged from the hospital, there shouldn't be any problem. I'll prescribe some medicine for you, remember to take it when you get home, and don't let the wound on your shoulder touch water, ask Wu Ma to help you change the dressing."

  It's still better to talk to people you know. Wang Yaowu quickly put on his clothes and was of course very happy to be able to leave the hospital. Staying in the hospital to recover from injuries is simply a waste of time.

  "By the way, Yaoyu, I heard that when you were injured, a little girl came to visit you. Who was that little girl? The nurse on duty said that the little girl must be the daughter of a wealthy family, and you're not young anymore, it's time for you to settle down."

  When asked by Di Wu Ya, Wang Yaozu was stunned for a moment. He suddenly felt very embarrassed, a feeling he had only experienced when he first came into contact with women. This embarrassment even made Wang Yaozu's face turn red.

  "Sister, don't talk nonsense. She's just a little sister I know, still a young girl. A miss from a respectable family, the day I saved her was when we met, and I only regard her as my younger sister."

  Seeing Wang Yaowu suddenly like this, and thinking of Wang Yaowu's usual behavior, Di Wu Ya suddenly laughed.

  "Alright, Ya Zu, look at how tense you are. It's not just your sister saying this to you, but you're also getting older, 22 years old and many people have already gotten married and had children. You should stop being with those women who aren't good for you and find someone to settle down with."

  As for the fifth Ya's concern, Wang Yaozu could only shake his head and reply: "Let's talk about it later, getting married seems a bit too early for me. I'm not thinking of playing around, but I really don't want to get married now. Sister, you don't have to persuade me either, sooner or later I will come to my senses."

  Wang Ya Zu looked like this, Di Wu Ya seemed to understand a bit, nodded and didn't say much. After helping Wang Ya Zu open the prescription, he took Wang Ya Zu to handle the discharge procedures.

  Wang Yaozu did not buy a house in Shanghai, the house he lives in now is rented, and Wang Yaozu does not know how long to rent it, the landlord dare not ask, anyway Wang Yaozu pays the rent on time every season.

  Wu's mother was waiting at the door for Wang Yaowu to return home, and the pig trotter noodles were already cooked. For many people, going to the hospital or entering a prison are unlucky things. After Wang Yaowu returned home, he certainly couldn't bring the bad luck back home, eating pig trotter noodles could dispel the bad luck.

  First, eat the noodles, then drink the soup, and finally take another bite of the pig's trotter. Wu Ma slowly watched Wang Ya Zu finish eating the pig's trotter noodles, then put away the bowl and chopsticks, preparing to help Wang Ya Zu boil water for a bath.

  "Wu Ma, Shangguan Hui is still just a little girl, she's still in school. Are you being too hasty? Is she really the best candidate?" Wang Yaowu suddenly asked as Wu Ma was about to leave.

  Originally about to take the bowl and chopsticks back to the kitchen, Wu Ma stopped in her tracks when Wang Ya Zu asked this.

  "Young master, I've watched you grow up, and I understand your thoughts to some extent. But as a servant, there's still much that I don't comprehend. Miss Shangguan is a good girl, and she's a suitable match for you. I just hope you won't let her down. Everything I do is solely for your well-being, young master."

  "Wu Ma, it's alright now. Can you help me boil some water for a bath? The weather is still so hot and humid, after staying in the hospital for two nights, I couldn't even wipe myself clean properly, now my whole body feels uncomfortable, I need to take a good shower."

  As for Wu Ma, Wang Yaozu really couldn't blame her because he knew that Wu Ma was genuinely good to him and truly cared about him. She had already treated him like her own child. The matter temporarily passed, and Wang Yaozu still had to go out later.

  This damn weather in summer is really unpredictable, yesterday the weather was still cool in the morning due to rain, but by noon, when the sun came out, it became unbearably hot outside.

  Wang Yaoyu originally wanted to ride a bicycle out, but the bike was only pulled to the door and then pulled back. This road ride out, definitely full of sweat, at that time can't see Anthony, Wang Yaoyu could only pull the bicycle back, walk out, on the street corner found a pedicab waiting for a fare.
