Yesterday, I reached an agreement with Er Mao: There are 18 days left until school starts. Instead of idly waiting, it would be better to attend my TCM classes every day and learn TCM. After listening to a class and being able to recount most of the content, explaining the principles of differentiation (bianzheng), I will give 100 yuan. If there are notes, an additional 50 yuan. If they can complete the homework, another 50 yuan. This learning income can be deposited into her own WeChat account for her to spend freely. Can learning also earn money? She immediately agreed. Last night, she spent over an hour earning her first 200 yuan. So everyone, instead of letting the kids waste their time at home playing and waiting for school to start, why not play this game of learning and earning, and let them learn TCM? This initiative can give children two profound insights: First, learning is productivity and can lead to a good life. Second, learning TCM means earning money (without going to the hospital). Sometimes, instead of talking to them about the importance of TCM, it’s better to provide some practical incentives. This way, they won’t spend all day on their phones playing games, harming their health—making their parents worry. Although it may seem inappropriate to pay them to learn, if it can be implemented, they will benefit for a lifetime (after all, TCM is not a compulsory subject for students; they have to spend their spare time on it). Don’t think they won’t understand. They can understand ‘The Three-Body Problem’, so how can they not understand TCM? My approach is just for your reference; who knows, this game might change the children’s lives!
