Chapter 36: Living King of Hell?

"Sister Wen Ci, are you planning to go to the hospital to work today?"

Hou Li asked curiously when she saw her outfit.

Wen Ci nodded: "Today is my first day at work, I'm still a little nervous."

Zhu Jing comforted her: "Why are you so nervous? You can definitely do it."

Wen Ci smiled widely: "Thank you for comforting me."

Since breakfast in the military cafeteria was free, there were a lot of people. Fortunately, the men in the military had not finished their morning running training yet, so they didn't have to wait in line for long.

"Is it Zhu Jing?"

Zhu Jing planned to eat in the cafeteria before going back. Just as she sat down and drank some porridge, a man in military uniform came out from the kitchen, approached her and asked.

Zhu Jing nodded: "I am."

She recognized the man in front of her as the Minister in charge of logistics of the Northwest Military Region. She had heard her husband mention this high-ranking official before.

"I heard that your ancestor was a royal chef?"

"Yes." Zhu Jing nodded.

As she spoke, she looked at Wen Ci, knowing that only a few of her ancestors had been imperial chefs, and among them, Wen Ci's man had a military position.

Moreover, Wen Ci complained more than once during the meal that the logistics of the Northwest Military Region missed a treasure.

"We would like to invite you to cook, but we need to test your cooking skills before that. When do you have time?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Jing showed a delighted expression. She was confident in her cooking skills. It was a done deal that her leader wanted to check her cooking skills.

"Can I ask how much the chef's salary is?"

"Thirty-five dollars a month."

There are three chefs in the canteen of the Northwest Military Region, who take turns to help out. Their salaries are even higher than those of some young soldiers who have just joined the army.

"Three, thirty-five dollars?!" Zhu Jing widened his eyes.

His husband only earns 30 yuan a month.

Zhu Jing: "I am always available, you can test me now."

The logistics director smiled and said, "Not now, then come to the cafeteria at 2:30 pm?"

Zhu Jing: "Good leader."

As soon as the logistics director left, Zhu Jing looked at Wen Ci with gratitude, tears in her eyes, and choked up and said, "Sister Wen Ci, thank you."

Half of her husband's salary has to be handed over to his parents for their retirement. After each month's salary is paid, there is not much left. They live a tight life every month and can't save any money at all.

If she really gets a job as a chef, her life will be much better.

"Why are you thanking me?" Wen Ci shook his head and said seriously, "Sister Jing, you are a pearl hidden in the dust. You will eventually be discovered."

She only mentioned it to Huo Jingyuan. Whether she could successfully become the head chef in the canteen of the Northwest Military Region depended on Sister Jing's own ability.

However, she believed that Sister Jing could impress the leaders with her cooking skills.

After dinner, Wen Ci and Sister Jing went their separate ways. The family quarters and the hospital were in different directions. When they walked into the hospital, they saw many doctors and nurses in white coats.

The hospital makes independent arrangements for both accommodation and meals.

Wen Ci came to the dean's office on the third floor. New nurses needed to be arranged by the dean to be accompanied by different doctors. She stood outside the door and knocked.

At this time, an old head nurse was sitting in the dean's office. After hearing the knock on the door, the dean smiled and said, "It should be the new nurse."

Immediately, he shouted towards the door: "Come in."

After getting permission, Wen Ci pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw the dean and the head nurse, he lowered his posture and said in a soft voice, "Hello, I'm a new nurse, my name is Wen Ci."

The dean nodded and his eyes fell on the head nurse. She would have to decide which doctor would take care of the new nurses.

The dean smiled and said, "This is the head nurse of our hospital, Comrade Wang Yan."

In the 1980s, the status of the head nurse in hospitals was even higher than that of many attending doctors, and nurses were extremely respected by people.

Wen Ci said obediently: "Hello, head nurse."

The head nurse nodded, pointed to the brand new white nurse coat on the table, and slowly said, "You have to wear this coat to work every day. There is a cabinet in the hospital where you can change. After you change your clothes on the second floor, I will take you downstairs to see the doctor."

"OK."

-

After Wen Ci changed his clothes, he looked down at his white coat and instantly felt a sense of responsibility on his shoulders.

The hospital has outpatient, inpatient and pharmacy departments.

The head nurse asked, "Do you know traditional Chinese characters?"

"I know him." Wen Ci nodded.

Led by the head nurse, Wen Ci came to an office where two young female doctors were sitting, one of whom Wen Ci had met before.

Su Wanqing came back from abroad.

Wen Ci thought about it carefully. If he remembered correctly, the female doctor sitting by the window should be called this name.

The head nurse looked back and forth between the two female doctors and said, "Doctor Yu, this new nurse is with you. Feel free to use her if you need anything."

"OK."

After the head nurse left, Wen Ci briefly introduced himself to Doctor Yu: "My name is Wen Ci, Doctor Yu, please let me know if you have anything to say."

"My name is Yu Qing."

Yu Qing's eyes fell on Wen Ci, and she asked curiously: "Comrade Wen Ci, why did you want to come to the Northwest to be a nurse?"

"ah?"

Wen Ci was a little confused.

She had never thought that Dr. Yu would ask this question. She blinked her eyes, came to her senses and smiled: "I am accompanying the army to the Northwest Military Region."

With the army?!

Yu Qing looked at Wen Ci with a little more admiration, but she didn't plan to continue asking about Wen Ci's family situation: "Then do you know anything about medical care?"

Wen Ci told the truth: "I don't really know."

Yu Qing got the key information from these few simple sentences. She stood up and walked to Wen Ci's side, smiling gently: "It's okay, the work at the Northwest Military Region Hospital is not that complicated, you will learn it after reading it a few times."

-

For the entire morning, Yu Qing took Wen Ci to familiarize himself with the hospital and get to know other doctors and nurses, and then went to the staff cafeteria at noon.

"Who do you think Dr. Su came to the Northwest for?"

"I'll listen." The voice paused, lowered its voice, and continued, "First of all, the source of the good news is not authentic. Doctor Su came to the northwest for the living devil next door."

Wen Ci and Yu Qing heard shocking gossip as soon as they sat down.

As for the Living King of Hell, Wen Ci didn't know who he was.

From the name 'living devil', we can tell that he is a ruthless guy in the army.

Wen Ci was not curious. Today was his first day at work, so he couldn't appear to be too gossipy. He glanced at her and asked, "Doctor Yu, are you a college student from a regular medical school?"

She thought Yu Qing had a scholarly air.

Yu Qing shook his head: "My ancestors were barefoot doctors for three generations. I followed my parents to learn medicine since I was a child, and later went to the city to take the doctor's qualification exam."

In the past, the management was not very strict. As long as the doctor had the ability, he could cure diseases and save lives. However, the hospital of the Northwest Military Region also belongs to military medicine, and people who want to be doctors have to obtain a qualification certificate.

“Is it easy to get the qualification certificate?”
