Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic-Chapter 115 - 105: Competing for Talent, Just Wanting to Guard Their Own Turf

Chapter 115: Chapter 105: Competing for Talent, Just Wanting to Guard Their Own Turf

Now hearing that Li Jingsheng was caught by the medical department while learning Bone-setting Skill with Doctor Xu in the clinic, he immediately realized that the opportunity to recruit talent had arrived.

So he hurried over to plead on his behalf.

Director Mu is a renowned doctor in pulmonary medicine, and having him personally mentor Li Jingsheng promised an incredibly bright future.

Yet, this opportunity, which countless medical students would die to have, was actually turned down by Li Jingsheng.

Director Mu felt a bit surprised but did not give up.

Instead, he sincerely tried to persuade him.

"Director Mu, thank you for your nurturing intentions, but you don’t need to persuade me any further. I will not agree."

He refused once again.

Director Mu, unable to recruit this extraordinarily capable young doctor into pulmonary medicine, couldn’t help but feel a wave of disappointment.

Why doesn’t this kid get it?

What’s so good about opening a clinic?

"Director Hua is here!"

Seeing Li Jingsheng refuse to join pulmonary medicine, Doctor Xu actually seemed quite happy.

People are selfish.

Director Mu thought Li Jingsheng’s diagnostic skills in pulmonary medicine were excellent, whereas Doctor Xu believed that Li Jingsheng’s talent in Bone Setting was monstrous.

Not only did he show extraordinary talent in learning ordinary osteopathic skills, but he also quickly mastered and became proficient in the advanced Bone Touching Skill, completely reshaping Doctor Xu’s perception of genius.

Compared to Li Jingsheng’s monstrous talent, any other genius pales in comparison.

Doctor Xu dreamed of recruiting such a talent into orthopedic surgery.

"Oh, Director Mu is here too! It’s usually hard to see you!"

Director Hua is a slightly plump man in his early fifties, of medium height, with a dignified face, kind brows, and kind eyes, and his eyes are bright and clear.

His voice is deep and gentle, and his smile is infectious, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Along with him was a middle-aged man with a very fierce-looking face, probably around forty-seven or eight, looking younger than Director Hua. This man mainly had eyebrows like flying horse manes, soaring to the sky, paired with slightly yellowish eyes, giving a particularly fierce impression.

One warm, one fierce.

Walking together, the two were like black and white.

Both carried a powerful aura. Though they strolled leisurely, they exuded an overwhelming momentum. Their gaze sweeping around carried a sense of authority, looking down upon the world.

The fierce-looking man’s background was unclear, but Director Hua was the head of orthopedic surgery, definitely not of low status.

Many departmental matters required the head’s signature to be implemented, and the power was significant.

Those who serve as department heads are often chief physicians themselves, with high levels of medical skill, academic prowess, and research achievements.

Such figures are equivalent to small bosses in a large hospital.

Director Mu is a renowned doctor, making a living with his skills, serving as a leading figure of the hospital but with limited power.

Director Hua, being a department head, can decide on major and minor matters within a department, commanding significant authority and influence.

There is indeed some distinction between him and Director Mu. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Recently, the teaching and research tasks have been heavy, along with a lot of clinical work, so I’ve indeed been less visible. When I’m not so busy, I’ll treat Director Hua to a meal."

Director Mu replied with a smile.

At their level, mutual respect and civility were the norms.

"That’s great. We’ll have to clink a few glasses then. I heard your pulmonary department is conducting research on the terminal stages of lung cancer, which is indeed a great thing for the nation and the public! Lung cancer is so unpredictable; as an old smoker, I fear nothing else but lung cancer finding me."

Director Hua, appearing gentle and elegant, was surprisingly also a smoker.

For men, there are times when stress is high, and dependence forms after smoking, making it hard to quit.

Knowing the harm of smoking, countless people still throw themselves into it, like moths to a flame.

Sometimes people feel they have no choice but don’t want to overly wrong themselves.

"Will Director Zhang join us?"

Director Mu smiled, looking at the fierce-looking man.

"Sure, no problem. Once you two are downed with drinks, at least someone can send you home."

Director Zhang’s voice was slightly hoarse, seeming to be a straightforward and hearty person.

The three laughed, clearly bringing them closer.

Director Hua then turned to official matters, first casting a few glances at Li Jingsheng, then asking Doctor Xu, "Old Xu, is this young man with the monstrous talent in Bone Setting the one you mentioned?"

"That’s right. He came to learn the Bone-setting Skill from me last Friday, learned it on the spot, and directly helped me put an arm back. If that were nothing, his performance today was truly astounding. Whether in bone injury diagnosis or higher-difficulty bone-setting maneuvers, he shines brightly. I dare say, as long as Xiaoli studies with me for six months, his bone-setting skills could likely surpass mine."

In front of Li Jingsheng, Doctor Xu was praising him formally for the first time.

And it was a grand commendation at that.

Director Hua and Director Zhang both stared at Li Jingsheng with bright eyes, and Director Mu was also looking at him with some surprise.

Director Mu had not expected that Li Jingsheng would have such outstanding talent in Bone Setting.

He knew Doctor Xu’s character very well, and earning the praise of Xu Feng was not something ordinary geniuses could achieve.

"Great, our orthopedic surgery needs such a super talent. Li Jingsheng, right? Our department wants you."
