SRGA Chapter 68: Yang's Reward for Lin Tian
Tianshui Sanatorium.
After a comprehensive examination, Dr. Yang was transferred out of the intensive care unit. His condition had improved significantly.
"Zhiheng, stay. Everyone else, you can go," Dr. Yang said.
The others bid farewell and left the ward.
Only Dr. Yang and Yang Zhiheng remained in the room. Dr. Yang asked, "Zhiheng, who was the young doctor who treated me today?"
Yang Zhiheng smiled, "Dad, his name is Lin Tian. Actually, he's not a doctor and doesn't even have a medical license. He only knows traditional Chinese medicine."
Dr. Yang said seriously, "As the great man said, it doesn't matter if it's a white cat or a black cat, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat."
"Think of a way to get him a medical license."
Yang Zhiheng shook his head, "He's not interested in it himself."
Dr. Yang's gaze deepened. "He's still too young. If something happens, that medical license will come in handy."
"So, find a way to get him one quietly. Don't tell him. It might be useful if something really happens."
"Okay, Father," Yang Zhiheng nodded.
Although he was a military bigwig and not directly responsible for medical matters, with his connections, it wouldn't be difficult for him to handle such a small matter.
"What about his reward?" Dr. Yang asked.
Yang Zhiheng shook his head, "Dad, we didn't give him anything. I talked to Luo Laoge, and we agreed that this is a favor owed by our Yang family to Lin Tian."
"Shortsighted," Dr. Yang frowned. "Even if you give him a reward, do you think we won't owe him a favor? Favors are favors, rewards are rewards."
"Lin Tian is so young and already has such remarkable medical skills. Our Yang family might need his help in the future."
Yang Zhiheng coughed lightly, "Father, it's not appropriate to give him a reward. He's Luo Laoge's grandson-in-law, and our Yang family can't afford it compared to the Luo family."
"And he has no intention of getting into politics or joining the military."
Dr. Yang pondered for a moment. "I'm concerned about his safety. Young people like guns. Arrange for him to have a firearms license."
"I'll give him my gun."
"Before giving him the gun, make sure he undergoes firearms training."
"Father, are you really giving him your gun? Wasn't that gun personally given to you by the great man?" Yang Zhiheng asked, astonished.
Dr. Yang said casually, "If it weren't for Lin Tian this time, I would have met the great man soon. What's the big deal about giving the gun to Lin Tian?"
"Giving him the gun can protect him."
"But make it clear to him that firearms must be used cautiously."
Yang Zhiheng still seemed hesitant.
"What's wrong? Is the gun more important than your father's life?" Dr. Yang said, somewhat irritably.
"Of course not, Father," Yang Zhiheng hurriedly replied.
"In that case, take care of it. And also, make sure Lin Tian buys a good safe to store it in."
"Only carry it when he feels threatened, but otherwise, don't."
Yang Zhiheng nodded.
Getting Lin Tian a firearms license and arranging firearms training for him wasn't too difficult for him, but it wasn't exactly easy either.
"You handle this personally," Dr. Yang concluded, lying back to rest.
...
After leaving the sanatorium, Yang Zhiheng called Lin Tian.
He got Lin Tian's number from Luo Yongqian.
"Hello, who's this?" Lin Tian answered.
He had just finished bathing and was about to start practicing.
"It's General Yang Zhiheng. Do you have any interest in firearms? If you do, I can arrange for someone to take you somewhere fun tomorrow."
Lin Tian's eyes lit up.
Of course, he was interested in firearms.
Most men were interested in firearms, but firearms were prohibited in China. Otherwise, many people would definitely have collections.
"I'm definitely interested, General Yang," Lin Tian replied.
Yang Zhiheng chuckled, "Where are you? Tomorrow morning, I'll have someone come pick you up. We have plenty of bullets, so I guarantee you'll have a great time."
"General Yang, I won't hold back then. I'm at—"
Lin Tian gave his location.
The next day, a military vehicle arrived at the hotel early in the morning, and Lin Tian soon got into the vehicle and left.
"Hello, I'm Lin Tian," he greeted.
The driver was a young woman in her twenties. While her appearance didn't quite compare to Luo Bingning's, she could still be considered beautiful.
"I'm Tan Xin," the driver replied coldly.
She had other tasks originally and was suddenly assigned to teach a newbie how to shoot. It wasn't a pleasant job.
Since Tan Xin's response was cold, Lin Tian didn't bother trying to chat with her. At this point, Luo Bingning was probably awake, so he sent her a message.
"I miss you, send me a selfie."
"No way!" Luo Bingning replied promptly. She was having breakfast at the moment.
"Wife, don't be so stingy," Lin Tian teased.
Luo Bingning blushed slightly when she saw Lin Tian's message. She huffed, "Who's your wife? I'm not [pounding head emoji]."
"Bingning, if you don't send me a picture, I'll come straight back to see you. Your master's illness can wait until I come back to the capital next time."
Luo Bingning: "..."
She quickly sent a grumpy-looking selfie.
"Huh?" Lin Tian's expression changed slightly.
There was no treasure chest floating above Luo Bingning's head in the picture.
"Damn it!" Lin Tian felt the sorrow of losing his balls.
Luo Bingning's black iron treasure chest had turned into a bronze one overnight. Did it disappear completely after a night's sleep?
Black iron treasure chests were very valuable, let alone bronze ones.
"Ding ding—"
Lin Tian called Luo Bingning on video.
Luo Bingning answered quickly, and Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief. There wasn't one in the picture, but there was still one in the video.
Luo Bingning had a bronze treasure chest floating above her head.
"Lin Tian, didn't I send you a picture? Why are you calling me on video now? Oh, your ride doesn't look like an ordinary car."
Luo Bingning said.
Lin Tian smiled, "It's a military vehicle, and the driver is a beautiful woman. I can't show you what she looks like."
After chatting for a few more minutes, Luo Bingning hung up the video call.
"Rascal, where are you going?"
"Is the driver really a beautiful woman?"
Luo Bingning murmured softly, and the small wontons in her bowl didn't seem as delicious anymore.
An hour later, Lin Tian and Tan Xin arrived at a military shooting range. There were all kinds of firearms available here, including various heavy sniper rifles.
"Lin Tian, according to orders,
you can use various types of firearms, but you need to be proficient in using pistols first," Tan Xin said.
Lin Tian was a bit surprised. Why did he have to be proficient in using pistols first? What was General Yang's intention?
"Okay," Lin Tian nodded. He didn't ask Tan Xin about it because she was just following orders, and she couldn't possibly know what General Yang was thinking.
"What kind of gun do you want to play with?"
"I'll go get the guns."
Tan Xin asked.
Lin Tian smiled, "Pistols, rifles, sniper rifles, I want to try them all. More bullets, the better."
Tan Xin left, and soon she came back with a variety of firearms on a car.
"Let's start with pistols. We'll use the electronic target at fifteen meters. My task is to make sure you hit the target with at least six out of ten shots."
Tan Xin handed a pistol to Lin Tian.
"M92, 9mm pistol. Empty magazine weighs 760 grams, full magazine 879 grams. This one feels lighter, it's not loaded with bullets," Lin Tian remarked as he took the pistol.
