"Alright, hurry up and go inside, take the baby, and go back to sleep!"
Li Chu was reluctant to talk to Wenxuan because he lacked imagination, and waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.
"By the way, Wenxuan, what happened to Wang Lin today?"
"Wang Lin? Oh, Dad, you mean that trainee who registered the patient's gender incorrectly, right?"
"Yes, that's him."
"Deputy Director Qiao sent him back to the college and also called Director Chen of the Political Education Department to discuss the matter. Whether the college will refund him or not is unclear."
"Okay, I understand. Go and get the baby."
"What happened? How could they have gotten the patient's gender wrong?" Ding Qiunan asked, somewhat surprised.
"Careless and irresponsible, I don't know what to say. Keeping this kind of person in the hospital, keeping him on the front line as a doctor, is like planting a time bomb for the department and the hospital. Sooner or later it will explode, and the patients will be the ones who get hurt."
Li Chu shook his head, feeling a mix of emotions.
"Dad, Mom, I'm coming over now. You two should get some rest too," Wenxuan said softly as he came out of the bedroom carrying the child.
"Let's go back quickly, it's almost ten o'clock."
Ding Qiunan stood up from the sofa and walked to the living room door. She watched Wenxuan walk across the yard and disappear into the corridor before reaching out to turn off the yard lights and then closing the living room door.
Just as he was about to call Li Chu to go wash up after closing the inner curtain, Chu Yi, who had been lying by the door, suddenly stood up and scratched at the door.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Ziwen's voice came from outside.
"Xiao Chu, are you asleep?"
Li Chu glanced at his wife in surprise; hadn't she just passed by?
"Brother-in-law, you're here, aren't you asleep?" Ding Qiunan turned around, pulled back the curtain, and opened the door.
"Qiu Nan, I'm sorry to bother you again."
"Brother-in-law, what are you saying? Come in quickly."
"Brother-in-law, sit down, what's wrong?" Li Chu stood up and invited Wang Ziwen to sit down.
"Is that so, Xiao Chu? After we got back, your sister and I discussed it. Do you think it's possible for us to take over all of Xu Damao's father-in-law's shares?"
Wow!
Li Chu's eyes widened upon hearing this! Ding Qiunan, who had turned to go into the bedroom, also stopped and stood there looking over.
“Brother-in-law, what you’re saying is unlikely. Jia Dong, Jia Yuan, and Jianguo currently own 30% of the shares. If they were to buy back the remaining 30% from Old Master Lou, it would mean that the three of them would own more than half. Xu Damao and his wife would only own 40% in total. Would they be happy about that?”
"Working hard for someone else, putting in all the effort, I don't think that'll work. Besides, I predict that this time, with Old Master Lou's 30% stake, he might only be able to get Jia Dong and the other two to each buy 5%. That way, Xu Damao and his wife will have the majority, which will motivate them to work even harder."
“You’re right. Your sister and I were only thinking about buying more shares so we could get more dividends in the future, but we forgot that it’s the couple who are running the business.”
“That’s right, we don’t need that much. If the couple takes more, they’ll be more dedicated to managing the business. As for Jia Dong and the other two, they can just help fend off any trouble from the outside world.”
Wang Ziwen nodded and then asked, "Xiao Chu, how much do you estimate their shares could sell for now?"
"I can't estimate that. At first, 10% was 1,000 yuan, but now 30% is worth at least 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. It depends on what they finally agree on. Brother-in-law, tell Jiadong that as long as they don't set the price too outrageously, don't worry too much about it."
If all else fails, and if the price is indeed unreasonable and his father-in-law remains adamant, then let the three of them sell all their shares to them, and we'll extricate ourselves from the situation.
Ding Qiunan and Wang Ziwen were both taken aback by his words and stared at him in astonishment.
Li Chu waved his hand: "It's not about breaking with them or anything, but the country will eventually introduce regulations prohibiting civil servants from participating in business operations."
"This trend has already started?"
"Not yet, but that's for sure. But there's no need to worry now, let's just wait and see."
"Okay, I understand what you mean." Wang Ziwen had spent most of her life in a leadership position, and she could figure it out with a little thought.
"Okay, I'll talk to Jiadong tomorrow morning and make sure he talks to Jiayuan and Jianguo too. The three of them will definitely stand together through thick and thin. You guys get some rest, I'm coming over."
"good"
After seeing Wang Ziwen off, Ding Qiunan returned to the living room and finally spoke, "Li Chu, do you think Xiao'e's father will ask for an exorbitant amount this time?"
"Pretty much. Da Mao told me today that his father-in-law is almost unable to afford to support Ji Ye anymore, otherwise he wouldn't be thinking of selling his shares. The old man's savings are almost gone, and it will take another two years. Who knows how much money it will cost?"
“Xiao’e often complains to me that Jiye spends too much money over there. Other children can live on 200 yuan a month, but he spends at least 500 yuan a month. I called him several times to tell him to save money, but he still does it the same way.”
"Hehe, not to be rude, but Jiye has been spoiled rotten by her parents. Just you wait and see, the old man's days are numbered. And look at Xu Yang, although he has many shortcomings, those are just a matter of experience. Let's not talk about this anymore, go wash up, it's getting late."
"Aren't you going to shower with me today?"
Huh? Li Chu raised an eyebrow. Was this a provocation? Could he tolerate this? Without saying a word, he walked over, hoisted the woman who dared to provoke him onto his shoulder, and headed towards the bathroom.
...
Ever since Xiao Choubao started going to the daycare center at Yueyue's school, Li Chu has felt that time is passing too slowly every day, especially in the afternoon.
He used to go home right after lunch, but why is he going home now?
He sat in his office, bored, sighing repeatedly.
As long as no new patients come in or follow-up visits, he doesn't need to go to the project team every day. If there are any problems, someone will naturally find a way to notify him.
Stepping out of the office and standing in the corridor, looking east, you see the former office building. Now, that area, including the old barracks, has been demolished and turned into a large construction site. In the future, two hospital buildings and a dormitory will be built there.
"Ring ring ring"
The phone rang in the office. He stood there without moving. If it was anything, Zhao Zhijun would contact him.

"Director, it's a call from headquarters. They say that Marco, the manager of that pharmaceutical factory in West Germany, wants to visit you."
"What time is it now?"
2:30
"Then give them a reply. Let's say four o'clock. The meeting place is the small conference room on the second floor of headquarters."
"yes"
Why was he visiting him? Li Chu was filled with questions.
