I Can Hear the Heart's Voice of Traditional Chinese Medicine-Chapter 197 - 90: Hu Meiqiao’s Ambition, Keeping Dr. Lu (2/3)

Just imagine, while everyone else is still in the pharmacy grabbing herbs or assisting some attending physician without even touching a patient's pulse, you've already become a miraculous doctor in patients' mouths. And now, even the big hospitals are inviting you as a Flying Knife.

If you say it out loud, probably no one would believe it.

"You better not tell anyone."

Ji Xiuwen looked frustrated, "Alright."

Honestly, if Lu Xuan hadn't mentioned it, he definitely would have shared it with his classmates. After all, with an old classmate being so impressive, how could he not brag a little?

But since Lu Xuan forbade it, Ji Xiuwen had no choice but to suppress this thought with resignation.

Yet at the next moment, he leaned over and asked, "How much does the Ninth Hospital pay you for the Flying Knife fee?"

"About 2000."

"Wow, that's awesome."

Ji Xiuwen was so excited as if the two thousand yuan wasn't for Lu Xuan but for him.

A Flying Knife fee of two thousand isn't high, but for the Ninth Hospital to offer that, it's indeed quite generous.

After all, Lu Xuan is still just a practicing physician and not even an attending one. To get two thousand from the Ninth Hospital shows they still have some conscience, at least they're not stingy.

In the next moment, Ji Xiuwen sighed, "When will a hospital ever invite me to be a Flying Knife too!"

Lu Xuan shook his head and patted his shoulder, "You shouldn't be thinking about that right now. You should decide on a direction as soon as possible, so the next time we encounter such patients, I can arrange something for you."

"Got it, my old classmate."

Ji Xiuwen was resigned, "I've been thinking about it and have come up with a preliminary plan. The digestive diseases you mentioned earlier sound good. It's a big category, and if I learn it well, there will be no lack of patients in the future, and the prospects are good too."

"Have you decided?"

"Yes, I've decided." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Alright, then I'll let you try more cases related to digestive diseases in the future."

"Old classmate, I won't say thank you too much. From today on, I'll go wherever you tell me, and you, Lu Xuan, will be my guiding star," Ji Xiuwen said earnestly.

Lu Xuan didn't mind and said with a smile, "Let's go back and rest. I still have to go to the Ninth Hospital tonight. Acupuncture isn't that quick, and it takes a few more sessions."

"You still have to go?"

"Otherwise, the two thousand yuan for the Flying Knife fee will be too little, and more money has to be added."

Ji Xiuwen quickly said, "You should mention it to Director Wu yourself, don't let yourself get shortchanged."

"We'll see."

Then the two of them went to the Traditional Chinese Medicine department's consultation room. Su Kenan had finished eating and went to the third floor pediatric care department to rest.

Lu Xuan and Ji Xiuwen pulled out the sofa bed inside, preparing to take a nap.

...

On the other side.

Fourth floor.

Director's office.

Hu Meiqiao didn't rest at noon. After seeing last week's registration information and income and expenditure situation of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, she seemed to have made an important decision. She took out her phone, looked for a number for a while, and finally her gaze fell on a name called Shen Congli, and she dialed it directly.

The phone rang for a while before it was picked up.

"Old classmate, am I bothering your rest?"

Hu Meiqiao greeted Shen Congli with a smile.

"I was just about to take a nap, and you called," Shen Congli said with a smile.

"By the way, Meiqiao, what do you want to talk about at this time of day?"

"I'm not visiting randomly, I do have something I need your help with," Hu Meiqiao admitted candidly.

Shen Congli responded, "Figured as much, what's up? Just say it, as long as I can help, I won't refuse."

Hu Meiqiao didn't hold back much with Shen Congli. Ever since they graduated from university, they've never lost contact, especially since they both work in Yong City. They often meet up for gatherings and such. However, this is the first time Hu Meiqiao has asked Shen Congli for help.

Although she felt a bit embarrassed to ask, thinking of her own intentions, she gritted her teeth and said, "The United South Chinese Medicine Association over there should be under your management, right?"

"The United South Chinese Medicine Association?"

Shen Congli nodded and said, "Yes, why?"

Hu Meiqiao took a deep breath and said, "I'd like to recommend someone to practice over there. Can you help with this?"

Shen Congli hesitated for a moment and said, "Old classmate, I won't ask you who you want to recommend to the United South Chinese Medicine Association, but there's something I need to clarify. As someone within the Yong City medical system, as the director of the Health Center, you should know the situation over there. Being invited to practice at the United South are usually some highly respected and renowned senior traditional Chinese medicine doctors.

Even if they are not senior doctors, they must have extremely high achievements in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.

It's not that I don't want to help, but I dare not. You have to understand, not just any traditional Chinese medicine doctor can go to United South to practice. You know that, among so many doctors in Yong City Hospital and the District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, how many actually have the honor of receiving an invitation from the United South Chinese Medicine Association?"

Hu Meiqiao also knew that there wasn't a bit of exaggeration in Shen Congli's words.

Precisely because she knew the strict criteria of the United South Chinese Medicine Association and that the doctors there were prestigious and exceptionally skilled, she thought of asking for Shen Congli's help.

With this thought, Hu Meiqiao took a breath and said seriously, "Old classmate, don't worry, the person I recommend definitely has the ability. I've not only learned about the United South Chinese Medicine Association but also made sure of this before bringing it up. To exaggerate a bit, even if I didn't come to you today, there's a very great chance that within half a year, the United South Chinese Medicine Association would invite the person I recommend to practice.

But there's a difference between you inviting and me recommending."
