Chapter 883: Don’t be clever
After introducing himself, Yu Zhiming also received a welcome gift from the property management committee on behalf of the community.
Yu Zhiming took a large sealed cardboard box of about 1.2 meters x 1.0 meters x 1.0 meters in both hands. It was quite heavy.
Zhou Mo told Yu Zhiming that the box was filled with gifts such as cakes and snacks, souvenirs, coupons, trial packs, decorative ornaments, etc. sent by enthusiastic residents.
Some gifts are quite practical.
After the new owners had come on stage one by one to introduce themselves and came down with gift boxes, Yao Hui, the chairman of the property management committee, gave an annual work report for more than half an hour.
Next, it’s time to line up and receive dividends from the community’s profits.
The dividend follows the house, so Yu Zhiming, who has only lived in the community for a few months, also received a share.
Although this was only a little over 1,400 yuan, which was nothing to Yu Zhiming today, money was money, so he still stood in line to receive it.
While waiting in line, he saw many enthusiastic residents clearing up the seats and using the space as a venue for cultural performances.
He also saw more than a dozen people dressed as chefs carrying in stainless steel barrels of food.
This should be the buffet prepared by the property management committee for the residents?
There were more than ten lines waiting to receive dividends.
It was quite quick to verify identity, sign, and receive the cash red envelope that had been prepared long ago.
Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo waited in line for fifteen or sixteen minutes before receiving their dividends and reuniting with Qing Ning who was waiting on the side.
"Doctor Yu, would you like to watch the community cultural performance later?"
Zhou Mo asked, and then introduced: "There are some artists among the residents of our community, and some of them have outstanding performance talents. Their performance level is quite good and worth watching."
She added: "The buffet prepared by the property management committee is all produced by star-rated hotels, so it is also acceptable."
At this time, Yu Zhiming saw someone setting up speakers and shook his head, saying, "It's too noisy, not suitable for me."
He looked at Qing Ning again and asked, "Why don't you and Zhou Mo stay and join in the fun and get to know more neighbors?"
Qing Ning also shook her head and said, "Forget it. I don't like occasions with too many strangers."
"Hubby, let's go back together."
Zhou Mo took the initiative to pick up the gift box and said, "I'll go back with you, and by the way, familiarize myself with Qing Ning about the acupuncture points we learned yesterday."
The three of them reached a consensus, but after taking a few steps, they were stopped by someone.
"Doctor Yu, please wait a moment." A petite woman in her thirties walked quickly towards the group.
Yu Zhiming knew her.
The young woman who forced her obese son to run to lose weight had the opposite effect, causing wear and tear on her son's knee joints and a broken forearm.
The young woman met Yu Zhiming's gaze and said, "Doctor Yu, I've heard of your reputation as a medical genius for a long time."
"I'm Lv Hui from Unit 2, Building 7."
The next moment, she said pitifully, "To be honest with you, Doctor Yu, our family has had bad luck this year. My husband had a stroke last year and he hasn't recovered yet. My son also has worn out his knee joints and a broken forearm."
"They say a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Could you, Dr. Yu, please examine my husband and son?"
Yu Zhiming didn't answer but asked, "Ms. Lu, did you forget something before asking for help?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhou Mo beside him.
Previously, Zhou Mo went to remind her about her son's knee wear, but was treated unreasonably by her.
Lu Hui blinked and asked, "Doctor Yu, are you referring to the examination fee?"
"My husband has been recuperating at home for the past few months and doesn't have much income. My salary alone can barely cover our family's daily needs."
"The mortgage is now being supported by our savings. If my husband doesn't recover quickly, we might not be able to keep the house."
Lu Hui glanced at the gift box Zhou Mo was holding and said, "To welcome Dr. Yu, I also gave him a small gift. It's not worth much, but it's just a token of my appreciation."
Yu Zhiming said politely, "Thank you for the welcome gift."
He made another vague excuse, saying, "Ms. Lu, my work schedule is completely full at this time."
"Zhou Mo is my work assistant. She is responsible for arranging my work schedule. You can just contact her from now on."
After saying this, Yu Zhiming didn't wait for the other party to respond, but took Qingning's hand and strode away.
Qing Ning also quickly followed...
More than ten minutes later, the three returned to Yu's house.
Zhou Mo put the gift box on the coffee table and said impatiently, "Qing Ning, let's open it quickly and see what welcome gifts they have prepared."
Qing Ning didn't wait for her to finish, and violently tore off the tape sealing the box, opening the box in two or three moves.
The box was filled with small boxes of various sizes.
Qing Ning took out a rather exquisite small box, opened it, and took out a very exquisite thermos cup from it.
"Hey, a sterling silver thermos?"
Along with this thermos, there is also a certificate showing that it is a sterling silver thermos handmade by a master craftsman.
Yu Zhiming took the thermos and weighed it. It was quite heavy. He also noticed that there were exquisite patterns carved on the surface of the thermos.
"If this certificate is true, this thermos is worth at least several thousand yuan."
"Zhou Mo, are the welcome gifts the community gives to new owners all this substantial?"
Zhou Mo shook his head and said, "As far as I know, they are just some small gifts to show my appreciation, and they are not of high value."
At this time, Qingning made a discovery and took out another small card from the small box.
"Honey, there's a business card in here."
Yu Zhiming looked at the business card. On the front was written Xingji Craft Boutique, Yang Xingji, as well as the address and contact number.
On the back, there is a handwritten phone number and the home address of the community.
Zhou Mo's eyes lit up, and he roared, "Doctor Yu, I understand. They know your abilities, Doctor Yu, so they're giving you gifts in advance to build a good relationship with you."
"This thermos cup is definitely authentic."
She looked at the large box filled with small boxes and said excitedly, "I'm getting more and more excited to see what gifts are inside..."
Yu Zhiming, Qing Ning and Zhou Mo opened the gifts with anticipation and excitement.
It can be said that every gift is of great value.
Branded gold pens, luxury belts, platinum tie clips, luxury crossbody shoulder bags, latest mobile phones, high-end stethoscopes, purple clay teapots, high-end tea, foreign coffee beans, etc.
There are also many cards and vouchers.
Such as free vehicle maintenance cards, shopping cards for well-known fresh supermarkets, club VIP cards, ten VIP experience coupons for beauty services, ten buffet coupons for five-star hotels, ten VIP experience coupons for massage parlors, etc.
Not surprisingly, along with these gifts came the gift-giver's business card.
Zhou Mo looked at the pile of valuable gifts and said, "I finally understand why these people can succeed. They always look for opportunities and are willing to invest in building relationships in preparation for future needs."
"If you and I didn't know each other, Doctor Yu, even if I knew your medical skills were amazing, I probably wouldn't think of taking this opportunity to invest in you and make your name familiar."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "It's normal for you not to think of it. Given your age and experience, your mother should be able to think of it."
Qing Ning asked, "Zhi Ming, the total value of these gifts is not small."
"Should we take it?"
"Or should we return them one by one?"
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment and said, "Forget it, it's not a big deal. Just accept it. After all, we are neighbors."
"If they really have health problems, even if they don't bring gifts, if they come to your door, you can't turn them away."
He then instructed Zhou Mo, saying, "Send a thank you message to the homeowners group for me, thanking everyone for their gifts."
“If there is a medical need, have them contact you and you will make arrangements on a case-by-case basis.”
Zhou Mo nodded and said "hmm".
Yu Zhiming thought of something else and said with a smile, "Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, Sui Chi, and Duan Yi are doing a great job in the outpatient clinic. Few patients can stump the four of them together."
"Zhou Mo, some of the patients who come to me can be handed over to them for diagnosis and treatment first. If they can't solve the problem, then hand it over to me."
Zhou Mo chuckled softly and said, "That's how it should be arranged."
"If they filter out most of the patients, you will have more time to deal with difficult problems that others cannot solve."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Zhou Mo, you and Qing Ning should first compile a list of these gifts and the givers."
"If they find you in the future, you have to treat them differently. You can't let them give you gifts for free."
Zhou Mo hummed, then said in surprise, "Hey, hey, Doctor Yu, there's no gift from Lu Hui."
"Did the property management committee think her gift wasn't up to standard and didn't put it in there?"
Qing Ning pondered and said, "The property management committee probably won't do that. After all, it's a gesture of kindness from the owners."
"That means she lied and didn't give it to me!" Zhou Mo made his judgment and laughed, "I know it very well. The welcome gifts we gave before were a mess, not worth much, and no owner would specifically leave a business card."
"She could definitely get away with it by saying that. But she didn't expect this to be the case this time."
Zhou Mo's face was full of sarcasm again, and he said, "This is why being clever is bad. You will always make mistakes."
At this time, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang.
It’s Duan Yi calling.
"What's up?"
Duan Yi replied on the phone, "Doctor Yu, we have a patient in the outpatient clinic with paroxysmal migraines. He said he had a splitting headache."
"The patient underwent a brain CT scan and physical examination, but we were unable to find the problem."
"Doctor Yu, what do you think?"
Yu Zhiming replied: "Ask the patient to come back tomorrow."
He thought about the phone call last night and asked, "Duan Yi, what happened with that call last night?"
"Truth or Dare, you lost?"
Duan Yi's voice rang out immediately, "Yes, yes, it was just a game of truth or dare. I was afraid of angering you, so I just said something at random. Hehe..."
Yu Zhiming said softly, "You can relax and have fun after work..."
He ended the call with Duan Yi and looked at Zhou Mo.
"Are Zhou Luo, Duan Yi and the others afraid of me?"
Zhou Mo thought for a moment and said, "It's probably not fear. Awe is a more appropriate word to describe it."
"You are nearly omniscient and omnipotent. After following you for a while, they feel the gap between them and you is becoming increasingly huge, and they are turning respect into fear."
Zhou Mo emphasized again, "Doctor Yu, I'm not just saying this; this is the unanimous feeling of all of them..."
