Chapter 367 Worried about Insufficient Ability
Around seven o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to his residence in Zijinyuan.
"Zhiming, you're back. Hug me!"
"Dear Lao Wu, let me hug you too!"
Yu Zhiming stretched out his left and right hands, keeping Qing Ning and Fourth Sister at arm's length.
"Sister, why are you back so early today?"
"The small canteen is now on track. It doesn't need me, the boss, to keep an eye on it all the time."
"Come, let your sister hug you!"
Yu Zhiming became alert and was determined not to let his fourth sister get close.
"Sister, what are you planning?"
"Short of money again?"
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "I'm just cooperating with Qing Ning so that you won't be embarrassed and afraid to be intimate with her."
As he spoke, Gu Qingning took advantage of Yu Zhiming's negligence, broke through his defense, and successfully got close.
She jumped up, then hung on Yu Zhiming with her hands and feet like a sloth, rubbing her little head against his chest.
She looks like a little slut.
Yu Zhiming was speechless. He tried to shake him off but failed, so he had no choice but to carry the guy to the sofa and sit down, letting the guy sit on his lap.
"Tell me, what the hell are you two doing?"
Yu Xiangwan sat on the sofa next to Yu Zhiming and chuckled, "The small cafeteria is getting back on track. Zhang Bai and I have discussed shifting our focus to short-term rental apartments."
"From now until before the Spring Festival, it is usually the peak period for tenants to vacate their leases. We want to take this opportunity to rent more houses."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes and said, "After all, it all comes down to lack of money."
"Tell me, how much do you want?"
Yu Xiangwan put his arm around Yu Zhiming's shoulders and said with a chuckle, "Old Five, we are short of money, but we are going to raise it ourselves."
"How do you raise funds on your own?" Yu Zhiming asked.
Yu Xiangwan smiled and introduced: "Recharge."
"The small canteen has already accumulated a group of regular customers. Every day, there are gluttons who come from far away to eat buns and steamed dishes."
Yu Zhiming grinned, "Sister, your canteen has only been open for a month? You're already doing top-ups?"
"Who dares to top up? Aren't you afraid you'll run away with the money?"
Yu Xiangwan patted Yu Zhiming on the shoulder and said, "So, we need a trustworthy guarantor."
Yu Zhiming said gloomily: "Okay, you are my twin sister after all, I will guarantee your recharge card."
"I knew it, Lao Wu, you are the best brother in the world. I love you!"
Yu Xiangwan half-stood up, held Yu Zhiming's head, and kissed him on the forehead.
"Lao Wu, in order to make the recharge of the small canteen more attractive, we are thinking of organizing a welfare event."
Yu Xiangwan tentatively asked, "For example, if I deposit 10,000 yuan, I'll be promised an outpatient appointment or a physical examination?"
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Not appropriate."
"Sister, you don't know, my outpatient appointment has been scalped up to 5,000 yuan each."
"So high?" Yu Xiangwan couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "The registration method will be reformed this week to eliminate scalpers as much as possible."
"If that happens, my registration fee might go up even higher."
"Even if it's 5,000 per number..."
Yu Zhiming analyzed, "A scalper deposits 10,000 yuan with you, gets an outpatient appointment, and sells it for 5,000 yuan. Then they sell it at a 40% discount and still make a profit of 1,000 yuan."
Yu Xiangwan slowly closed her half-open mouth and said, "Scalpers are very good at finding opportunities. Lao Wu, the situation you describe is very likely to happen."
Gu Qingning, who had been quietly curled up in Yu Zhiming's arms, raised her little head.
"Zhiming, sister, this can be used to transfer benefits."
"In fact, the main reason why hospital scalpers are so persistent is that the biggest scalpers are hospital insiders, or even medical experts themselves."
Gu Qingning further explained, "Some relatives and friends of medical experts also open small shops. Besides selling gifts received by the medical experts, their main purpose is to transfer profits."
"For example, I bought 5,000 yuan worth of goods from a small shop, but didn't take any of them. It was like giving away 5,000 yuan in exchange for asking a medical expert to do something for me."
After a pause, Gu Qingning chuckled again and said, "If you top up 10,000 yuan at the canteen, you get a free outpatient appointment, and then you get a 20% discount on your top-up card. That's like selling the outpatient appointment for 2,000 yuan."
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "There's no need to do this. We don't need this little money."
Yu Xiangwan sighed softly, "Looks like we need to come up with new and attractive benefits."
Gu Qingning chuckled again and said, "That's easy. Every year or every few months, we can set aside a day to conduct a health checkup for diners who top up a certain amount of money."
"This will avoid scalpers to the greatest extent possible."
Yu Xiangwan's eyes lit up and she smiled, "That's a good idea, Qing Ning, you're really smart."
Gu Qingning shrank back into Yu Zhiming's arms, "Hehe, if you're not smart, how can you be worthy of my Zhiming?"
Yu Zhiming shook the lemon in his arms and said with disdain, "Come down quickly, it's time for dinner..."
Dinner was ready, and it was all food that Yu Xiangwan brought back from the canteen.
While eating, the three of them talked about recharging the cafeteria and the party tomorrow night.
"Zhang Bai and I don't have high goals. We just want to have a top-up of 200,000 or 300,000 yuan."
Yu Xiangwan said proudly, "The cafeteria window at Ning'an Hospital will be open next Thursday or Friday."
"If we continue this way for three or four months, we'll enter a virtuous cycle of steady growth."
Yu Xiangwan said excitedly again, "Old Five, after the Spring Festival, let's have our parents and eldest sister come to Binhai?"
"My parents' beloved son, my eldest sister's beloved brother, her beloved son, and her beloved daughter are all in Binhai. Why not just come to Binhai for a family reunion?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "We'll try to persuade them together during the Spring Festival. It all depends on what my parents think."
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "Looks like we need to speed up the purchase of the house. I've already spread the news among the family group and friends group."
"If any of them find a good house, they will let me know as soon as possible."
Yu Xiangwan warned, "Qingning, don't be impatient when buying a house. This is worth 10 or 20 million."
Gu Qingning responded obediently, and then said: "Sister, I will pay attention, and I am just doing a preliminary screening."
"In the end, it's up to Zhiming and you to make the final decision."
Yu Xiangwan nodded with satisfaction...
After eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming received a call from a landline number in Beijing.
"Excuse me, is this Dr. Yu Zhiming from Huashan Hospital?"
"It's me! Who is it? What's up?"
"This is the Central Health Bureau office."
These words made Yu Zhiming feel nervous.
Still here.
Then I heard the voice on the phone say, "I'm notifying you to go to the Binhai Health Commission for an interview at 10:30 AM on Friday."
"What kind of interview?" Yu Zhiming pretended to be dumb.
"Dr. Yu, congratulations on being selected as a new expert by the Health Bureau. This interview is a necessary procedure."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and asked, "Um, can I not attend this interview?"
"Not participating? Why?" The voice on the other end of the phone was full of surprise.
Yu Zhiming tried his best to make his voice sound honest.
"I believe I am young and inexperienced, not yet qualified to take on such a heavy responsibility. I need more time to learn."
After a moment of silence, a voice rang out from the phone, "Doctor Yu, do you know what the experts at the Health Bureau do?"
Yu Zhiming said frankly: "I know, that's why I worry about my own incompetence and fear of making mistakes."
Then, there was silence again.
Yu Zhiming waited for a full twenty or thirty seconds before he heard the voice again.
"Doctor Yu, I understand. I will inform my superiors of your reply..."
Yu Zhiming was distracted by the phone call and had no intention of studying, so he left the bedroom.
I saw Qingning smiling while talking on the phone, and Fourth Sister was sitting on the flip bed reading a book.
"Zhi Ming, big brother has found a suitable house."
Gu Qingning jumped over and said excitedly, "Top floor duplex, 260 square meters, six rooms."
Yu Zhiming took the phone and heard Gu Qingran say on the phone: "Zhiming, I just got information about this house from a friend in the bank."
"This is a mortgaged house owned by a bankrupt businessman, and it's currently going through the mortgage auction process."
"If you are sure you want it, the bank said they can terminate the mortgage process."
"That way, you can get the house at a much more favorable price, around 80% of the market price. The bankrupt can also avoid a lot of litigation fees, attorney fees, and other intermediary costs. The bank also wants to make you a high-potential client."
"It's like killing three birds with one stone."
Yu Zhiming asked, "Dean Gu, where is he?"
"It's in Junshan Prefecture, very close to Huashan Hospital, at most half an hour's drive away."
Yu Zhiming felt that this distance was quite suitable.
"Dean Gu, how much is the total price?"
"The market price is around 28 million, and we can probably get it for 22 million."
Yu Zhiming grinned, and then he heard Gu Qingran continue, "Don't worry about the down payment. If you don't want to use Qingning's money, I can lend you a few million in the name of the hospital."
Gu Qingran advised again: "Zhiming, you need to change your mindset. With your current abilities, it's easy for you to make five or six million a year."
"A house worth 30 million yuan is equivalent to five or six years' salary. This house is not a big deal for you. It is completely within your affordability."
Yu Xiangwan came over and said, "Lao Wu, Qing Ning and I will go check out the house tomorrow."
"If you feel good, can we discuss the next step?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "Dean Gu, let's take a look at the house first before we talk about anything else."
“That’s what should be done.”
Gu Qingran agreed, then said, "Zhiming, let me tell you something serious."
"Ever since you diagnosed the old man with heart problems, someone in the family has been suggesting organizing a physical examination."
After hearing this, Yu Zhiming understood.
"Dean Gu, no problem. Let's schedule it for Saturday. It should be no problem to spare two or three hours for the physical examination."
"Zhiming, thank you!"
Gu Qingran introduced: "I roughly counted that the entire Gu family, including immediate family members, has about three to four hundred people over the age of forty."
"This medical examination fee..."
Yu Zhiming interrupted, "Given my relationship with Qing Ning, and the fact that Dean Gu has helped me so much..."
“Free physical examination.”
Gu Qingran laughed and said, "Zhiming, thank you! If it's just my great-grandfather's branch, it's free."
"But since it involves the entire Gu family and relatives, we can't just let it go like this."
"Besides, the cost of this inspection will be covered by the family fund, so this little money is not a big deal."
"Zhi Ming, how about one thousand per person?"
