Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic-Chapter 236 - 145: This Isn’t Bronchitis—Looks Like My Status Is Rising_3
As long as Boss Zhao doesn’t play dirty with Sunshine Clinic, he’s not too bad.
With Boss Zhao holding it down on this street, it’s probably extremely tough for any new competitors to break in.
Even the grandiose Furuiduo Pharmacy, cooled down overnight.
That online celebrity probably wished they were dead.
If they had the choice, they’d probably never set foot in the Old Street of South City again in this lifetime.
"Hey, compared to Brother Li’s place, that falls far short!"
"Boss Zhao, stop teasing me. You know, a few days ago, patients were causing a scene in my clinic. It couldn’t get any worse. All those patients and customers ran to your Quick Recovery Clinic, I know."
Li Jingsheng put on a pitiful face.
When facing competitors, one must play pitiable.
Silently making money is the way to go.
"Hmph, just a couple of days ago, I really thought so. I’ve actually been standing outside for almost two hours and saw you were busy, so I didn’t call you. I counted: you treated seven patients in two hours, with a 100% success rate. I must say, your medical skills seem to have improved a lot lately? I hear you’re attending advanced training at the second hospital from Monday to Friday. You’re doing great; studying and making money at the clinic, killing two birds with one stone."
Boss Zhao said sourly.
Clearly, not much can be kept from Boss Zhao.
This old chap constantly keeps an eye on others.
He knows exactly which pharmacy has good business and how each clinic is doing.
Then again, Li Jingsheng used to often keep tabs on other competitors too.
"Who said that? I’m just running errands, doing odd jobs, and also taking advanced training! As if you don’t know, big hospitals don’t even acknowledge clinic doctors as human. Treating us like servants, and still thinking they’re doing us a favor."
Li Jingsheng definitely wouldn’t tell the truth.
Unless he was foolish.
"Big hospitals’ arrogance, that’s true. But I believe people won’t get up early without a benefit. If there wasn’t some great advantage, why would you leave your clinic unmonitored every day to run to the second hospital?"
Boss Zhao was half-skeptical of his words.
It seems unclear what Li Jingsheng does at the second hospital.
This also means that Xiaogao hasn’t betrayed them from within.
Just now, Li Jingsheng genuinely suspected Xiaogao of leaking information to Boss Zhao.
Now it seems, he was just being paranoid.
But thinking about it, Xiaogao’s salary at Sunshine Clinic last month was 11,752 yuan. Slightly less than Tang Ping’s but still quite considerable.
Especially considering he hasn’t been employed long.
Selling health products, before he came, Tang Ping’s daily sales weren’t low.
Also, Tang Ping’s base salary is a thousand higher than his.
And this month, his salary could surpass Tang Ping’s.
"Within two hours earlier, I saw Xiaogao sold a full 12 orders of health products and supplements. Tell me, why didn’t I realize Xiaogao had such excellent sales skills before?"
It would be a waste of talent if Boss Zhao didn’t become a spy.
Stationed outside Sunshine Clinic for two hours, just watching for two hours.
He knows exactly what business Sunshine Clinic is doing.
"Aren’t sales talents everywhere? Boss Zhao, with your expansive network, finding a sales talent for pharmacy is just a minute thing for you. Don’t be thinking of poaching Xiaogao back again!"
Li Jingsheng gave him a friendly warning.
"Even if I wanted to, I couldn’t poach him; Xiaogao is just so stubborn."
Boss Zhao realized he slipped and stopped talking immediately.
"You actually tried to poach him? You keep calling me Brother Li, claiming I’m your lifesaver, but secretly you’re poaching my sales ace. That’s not right!"
Li Jingsheng immediately accused him after hearing that.
"Cough, cough... I was just testing, helping you check your employee’s loyalty. How could I seriously poach him?"
Boss Zhao quickly covered his tracks.
"Brother Li, I really underestimated you before. That day when that person caused a scene at your clinic, I was worried for you, thinking Sunshine Clinic was doomed. But it turned out you used an unparalleled strategy. A few days later, you staged a wonderful apology, earning your clinic plenty of popularity and reputation. Did you know? In this area now, ten out of ten people praise your Sunshine Clinic for their medical ethics.
This morning I went to have noodles, and someone praised Sunshine Clinic. At noon, I went to a restaurant for lunch, and still someone praised Sunshine Clinic. Even just going to the supermarket to buy things, I can still hear praises for you.
Brother Li, that move was truly brilliant."
That sourness, you could almost see it oozing from Boss Zhao’s face.
His words were sourer than green plums.
"Really? How come I didn’t hear any of that?"
Li Jingsheng, of course, wouldn’t admit it.
Although Boss Zhao might be exaggerating a bit, it probably wouldn’t differ much from the truth.
This wave of crisis at Sunshine Clinic indeed turned into an opportunity and new life.
After the Kuang family published an apology, the benefits to Sunshine Clinic grew even bigger.
Today’s newspaper hasn’t shown effects yet.
It’s likely that in the coming days, Sunshine Clinic will surely see a minor peak.
"Brother Li has now learned to play dumb, huh! Well, I won’t argue with you about this. Stirring up such buzz for Sunshine Clinic is your skill. I heard you earned a bravery award today; that’s another great signboard! Why do I feel like I’m always making wedding dresses for you?"
Boss Zhao complained.
Li Jingsheng’s gaze slightly sharpened; Old Zhao is off his game today, he let another secret slip.
A bravery award made a wedding dress for Li Jingsheng, what does that mean?
Isn’t that indirectly admitting that the Furuiduo Pharmacy incident was orchestrated by Boss Zhao?
"Boss Zhao made a wedding dress for me? That’s an interesting comment!"
Li Jingsheng said with a meaningful smile.
"Cough, cough... just a casual remark. Brother, from now on, don’t keep calling me Boss Zhao; call me Old Zhao, or even old brother. We’ll definitely be die-hard allies on this street in the future. When I can’t carry on and retire, and my son takes over the family business, we’ll still be depending on you to look after us!" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Boss Zhao is really thinking far ahead.
But it also shows that he’s genuinely from the heart accepted Li Jingsheng’s rise and existence, ready to share the kingdom equally with Li Jingsheng.
Realizing he’s let two secrets slip, Boss Zhao didn’t dare to chat much more.
The more you say, the more you err; if all his secrets were known by Li Jingsheng, wouldn’t that be giving him leverage?
Boss Zhao wouldn’t trust anyone.
I almost forgot my main purpose, I came over to pass along a message, do you have time tonight? How about grabbing a meal at Jidong Restaurant? Someone wants to meet you."
Boss Zhao quickly got to the point.
"Who is it? For a small fry like me, who would be interested in meeting?"
Li Jingsheng asked curiously.
