The development of one department does not mean the development of the entire hospital. All the drugs used to treat Helicobacter pylori this time were purchased from "Qingfeng Pharmaceutical Factory".

But after all, this is an experimental drug and is in the promotion stage, so the "factory price" of the Qingfeng branch is not high, and Yuezhou People's Hospital only increased the price by 50%, so the profit is really not high.

Yuezhou People's Hospital looks very prosperous this time, but the food, accommodation and reception expenses for a large number of experts and their team of dozens of people are actually a huge burden, which also makes Dean Gu scratch his head.

The key is to build a staff community as soon as possible as he promised. How to make as much money as possible is also the first thing he needs to consider as the dean. It would be even better if he can solve the employment problem of employees' families while making money.

Just because the dean has no solution doesn't mean Section Chief Chen has no solution either. Looking at the dense crowds of people seeking medical treatment in the outpatient clinic, especially the patients and their families from all over the province, he came up with his own idea.

The hospital built its own guesthouse.

In the 1980s, basically all larger units had their own internal guesthouses. For example, Yuezhou’s two largest enterprises, Yue Steel Plant and Yuezhou Iron Mine, both had guesthouses built there, and their luxury was no less than that of Longshan Hotel.

Even smaller companies have guesthouses, such as Yuezhou No. 1 Textile Factory and Yuezhou Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

Some of these guesthouses are open to the public, while others are only open to people in the same system.

For example, comrades from the Yuezhou Supply and Marketing Cooperative can stay at the local supply and marketing cooperative guesthouse when they go on business trips to other places. Since everyone is in the same system, the hospitality is completely free.

Of course, on the other hand, comrades from supply and marketing cooperatives in other places who come to Yuezhou on business trips also stay in the guesthouse of the local supply and marketing cooperative. This kind of "you are good to me, I am good to you" model is, to put it nicely, a welfare within the same system, but to put it bluntly, it is a corrupt behavior.

Because all the expenses for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating have to be reimbursed from the collective account, and because it is free and not open to the public, outsiders have no idea how good the food is or how comfortable the accommodation is, and there is no way to supervise.

Without supervision, there will definitely be something fishy, ​​even if it is convenient for individual leaders to embezzle money.

This time, Chen Xia’s target was the guesthouse of Yuezhou No. 1 Textile Factory, which had been semi-shut down.

This guesthouse is only about 300 meters away from the People's Hospital, which is very close. When the textile factory was in its heyday, the guesthouse was also very lively with people coming and going.

The textile industry has always been a pillar industry in China. Almost every region has one or N textile factories. Yuezhou is especially the largest textile base in the country, so the original Yuezhou Textile Factory was also very glorious.

This glory came to an abrupt end in the early 1980s because the state-owned textile factories could not compete with the textile factories mainly composed of township enterprises and were quickly defeated.

Township and village enterprises have great advantages in running textile factories. They can simply buy some "obsolete" machines from state-owned textile factories and recruit a few workers.

There is no shortage of raw materials in Yuezhou, and Ke Town already has a "textile free trade market" of certain scale.

As a result, the business of several state-owned textile factories in Yuezhou has been getting worse year by year, and they are now in a semi-shutdown state.

If there had not been planned mandatory production and government support, this textile factory with thousands of employees would have gone bankrupt in 1984 and the workers would have been laid off.

The parent company can't hold on any longer, so the affiliated guesthouse is in even worse shape. It has no money to entertain people in the same system, and it has no external business and no production.

After all, this was 1984, and tourism and business trips were not yet mainstream. Who among the locals would come to the guesthouse to book a room for no reason?

In this way, the textile factory guesthouse was also closed. Even though Yuezhou People's Hospital attracted a large number of customers this time, they still kept their doors closed and had no intention of opening the door to grab some business.

The staff of the guesthouse would rather go back to the textile factory to peel their fingernails and curse the factory leaders than lower themselves to entertain those nouveau riche, no matter whether you are a patient or a small leader or boss of a township enterprise.

In the eyes of these workers, are these people worthy of their service? Will the workers' Big Brother still have anything to say?

Chen Xia was a reborn person, and he didn't think it was shameful to make money through business. What was wrong with the workers in state-owned factories? What was wrong with the doctors in the People's Hospital? They all had to make a living.

Although he personally is not short of money, his unit is. As the head of the general affairs department, he not only has to find welfare products for employees, but also find money for them. One of his goals is to make Yuezhou People's Hospital the richest hospital in the province.

In the dean's office.

Dean Gu lit a cigarette and asked, "You mean, we should buy the textile factory guesthouse? And then convert it into a guesthouse for our hospital?"

Chen Xia nodded quickly. "Yes, look at all the patients and their families from other places out there. So many people definitely need accommodation and food. If we can do a good job in the service industry, we'll definitely make money."

“But what if after the expert team leaves, there are no more patients?”

"Dad, you underestimate our gastroenterology department. I tell you, when the expert group leaves, our Yuezhou People's Hospital will be famous in the country. When our research project passes the national review, we will be the best hospital in the country for treating gastrointestinal diseases. By then, not only patients from the province, but also patients from all over the country will flock to Yuezhou."

“Cough cough cough~~~~~~”

Dean Gu almost gasped when he heard his son-in-law say this. "Really? Is there really such a day?"

"Comrade Gu, haven't you seen that our hospital's reputation has spread abroad? Even foreign doctors come here because of our reputation, not to mention domestic doctors."

Seeing his son-in-law's confident words and thinking about the boy's ability to make money, Dean Gu felt that he could trust him for once.

"Anyway, it's not a private purchase. We can negotiate between public and public entities. Besides, the No. 1 Textile Factory still owes our hospital a lot of employee medical expenses. I believe they will definitely be willing to offset the debt."

Well, Old Man Gu’s trick is even more ruthless. Either you pay back the money or sell the guesthouse. If you don’t agree, the textile factory will no longer provide public medical care, and you will be suffocated to death.

Paying back the money would kill the textile mill. How could they have any money left? They were so poor that they were secretly selling their looms.

One veteran is worth two.

As expected, the textile factory, whose lifeline was grasped by President Gu, immediately surrendered. The textile factory sold the guesthouse to the People's Hospital for 300,000 yuan, of which 130,000 yuan was used to pay off the debt, and the People's Hospital paid 170,000 yuan in cash.

This business is really profitable.

Chen Xia immediately took the people from the General Affairs Department and rushed to take over the guesthouse.

At that time, the textile factory was a wealthy unit in Yuezhou. The guesthouse was a very nice building, a 5-story independent building. In addition to guest rooms, it also had conference rooms, bathrooms, canteens and other supporting facilities.

There are 80 guest rooms alone, including double, triple, and quadruple rooms, with more than 200 beds.

And because it was a public-to-public relationship, all the bedding, sheets, furniture, etc. in the guesthouse were left behind. After the People's Hospital received them, they were simply "eaten right out of the bag."
