Chapter 492
On the night the clinic was officially opened, Yunxi invited Doctor Feng and his apprentices to go over with her.
Most of Doctor Feng's apprentices were young people, and to put it bluntly, they had never had a fixed place to live. When they saw this clinic, they were all very excited and kept walking around inside and outside, laughing and making noise.
Looking at them, Doctor Feng felt a pang of sadness for no apparent reason.
“These children have been learning medicine from me, and they have seen all kinds of patients, but this is the first time we have a proper place to practice medicine.”
Speaking of this, Doctor Feng sighed.
Jixiang and Le'an both sighed in regret.
Yunxi didn't say anything, but simply accompanied Doctor Feng on a tour of the place, which pleased Doctor Feng greatly.
Everyone returned to the courtyard, and Doctor Feng said, "Girl, I understand medicine, but business... I'm really not cut out for it. What you reminded me of before, I think, is very true, but how to put it into practice... girl, do you understand?"
Yunxi was prepared: "Don't worry, I've already found a manager, so you don't need to worry about anything."
Seeing her thoughtfulness, Doctor Feng nodded with satisfaction: "But girl, I have a rule that the price for treating the rich and the poor is not the same. If possible, I don't want to break this rule."
In this world, people are equal, but their financial situations are unequal. Therefore, when he charges for medical consultations, he should naturally differentiate between different levels of patients.
"...I have also experienced your Robin Hood-like practice of robbing the rich to help the poor."
Doctor Feng scoffed, "It's just robbing the rich to help the poor!"
We're all human, but for the poor, seeing a doctor might bankrupt them, while for the rich it might be a piece of cake. This might not be a big deal elsewhere, but here, you have to follow his rules!
Yunxi nodded: "Okay, I'll invite a manager over tomorrow. You can figure out the specifics yourself."
Doctor Feng glared at her: "You little brat, are you just going to wash your hands of this?"
"What else do I need to care about?"
"You can't just sit at home all day. Why don't you come and help out at the clinic sometime?"
Yunxi raised an eyebrow: "You're going to pay me for my work?"
Doctor Feng said irritably, "I still have to pay off your debts, I can't afford to pay your wages!"
Yunxi chuckled: "I've just been busy for a while and I'm a little tired. I'll come and help you once I've rested enough."
Doctor Feng nodded.
He was just worried that the girl would get sick from being alone in the courtyard, so he just wanted to give her a place to pass the time. He didn't really want Yunxi to come and help him, so Doctor Feng didn't care whether Yunxi came or when she came.
So Yunxi rested in the courtyard for seven or eight days before finally leaving and wandering around the streets.
Unlike Luoyang, Jizhou's roads don't have neatly arranged bluestone slabs; instead, they are compacted dirt roads with crisscrossing ruts. They're fine on sunny days, but become muddy everywhere when it rains.
The streets are lined with small stalls, giving them a unique local flavor.
Yunxi wandered aimlessly through the streets before heading to Doctor Feng's clinic.
Now that Doctor Feng has settled down here and started charging for his services, the number of people at the door has decreased by more than half, and there are more people hesitant to come in.
Yunxi took a few more steps forward and saw a sign hanging on the gate—
Those who cannot afford medical treatment will need to work to pay the debt after recovery. For details, please inquire inside.
Yunxi burst out laughing.
