Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic

Although the other party approached him as a patient, the purpose remains unclear.

The online pharmacy business has grown to its current scale, which was hard-won.

His clinic happened to be of high quality, and he seized the key moment to trend online, opening up the market in one stroke. Then, through gradual accumulation, he gained the current popularity and sales.

Jealous patients are never solely an offline issue; online there are even more.

He must be cautious.

"Can I apply for the operations position at your clinic? The salary can be performance-based, and I’m okay with a basic salary."

The man was direct.

"Sorry, our clinic currently has no plans to hire operations staff. If you’re interested, you can leave your phone number, and we’ll contact you if needed."

Li Jingsheng was using a formulaic response.

It’s a common tactic to avoid offending others.

Some officials and leaders excel at this tactic.

"Here is my phone number and name. I’m not looking to work at your clinic solely for money. My current savings and shares allow me to live a more dignified life than the average worker."

The man wrote down his phone number and name and handed it to Li Jingsheng with both hands.

Despite dressing casually, he carried a notepad and pen.

His writing was elegant, akin to his innate pride and tenacity, similar to that of warriors.

Observing a person’s writing can reveal their character and attitude towards life.

"Go ahead and attend to other patients. I shouldn’t waste their time; I’ll wait over there until you’re free to talk."

After giving his contact details, the man voluntarily moved to the lounge area to wait.

This gesture earned him some favor with Li Jingsheng.

Someone considerate of others cannot be that bad at heart.

This person’s condition was difficult to diagnose, so Li Jingsheng planned to give it more attention when he had time, perhaps with some new findings.

After a busy day, Li Jingsheng rose and walked towards the man.

"Mr. Wen, sorry to keep you waiting. Let’s discuss this in the office."

Li Jingsheng led him to the office and personally poured him a glass of water.

"I’m interested in working at your clinic. Although it’s a spur-of-the-moment decision today, it stems from several considerations. Firstly, your clinic has a great reputation. I’ve seen online comments praising your medical skills and ethics. What’s heard can be false, but seeing is believing. Through my observations and talks with you, I sense the responsibility of a healer.

Secondly, the medicine sold at your clinic is authentic from my experience, reasonably priced, and quality-assured, showing genuine customer care.

This is admirable.

As someone who often needs medication, I understand the disparity in quality. It’s not easy for ordinary people to buy quality medication at a fair price.

If I can help your clinic expand its online business, it would be beneficial to many patients.

My idea is to build Sunshine Clinic’s online store into a renowned brand, making it a go-to option for patients. At least they will have more purchasing choices.

Furthermore, I’m currently unemployed. Although I’m actively learning, focusing on enhancing operations skills to stay relevant, the idle life makes me increasingly lazy.

I constantly battle with laziness through strong willpower.

This was unimaginable before. Working in a company meant daily tasks and fierce competition, naturally pushing me to work and learn hard, becoming self-disciplined.

I deeply desire to regain that fulfilling and disciplined life.

Lastly, I know your massage therapy is good. Working here would make it more convenient to consult you for my head ailments. Massaging the head sometimes eases my pain and symptoms, though my amateur attempts are limited."

Wen Tianqi spoke in an organized manner.

He expressed all his reasons for applying for the operations role.

After listening, Li Jingsheng had some inclinations.

"Siying, please bring in Dr. Gao."

Soon, Xiaogao hurried into the office.

"Boss, I know why you called me in. This gentleman wants to apply for the online pharmacy operations role. If he is truly capable, I have no objections."

Though Xiaogao verbally expressed no objections, what he truly thought remained unknown.

"Dr. Gao, while officially we’re boss and employee, we’ve always been close allies. The success of Sunshine Clinic greatly hinges on your contribution. I would never be one to discard after use."

Li Jingsheng motioned Dr. Gao to sit, pouring him water personally.

Only then did Dr. Gao’s expression relax slightly.

Earlier, Xiaogao stood without sitting, indicating that he didn’t feel too content, maybe even instinctively resisted this operations hire.

The offline business already hired a female salesperson.

This in itself gave Xiaogao some sense of crisis.

Because the female salesperson’s retail skills were stronger. Women inherently possess certain advantages.

Now hiring an operations person for the online pharmacy, even though the candidate proactively reached out, still made Xiaogao feel a strong sense of crisis.

Currently, Xiaogao earns forty to fifty thousand a month.

He went from a thousand a month to forty to fifty thousand in less than half a year.

Whenever Xiaogao receives his salary each month, it feels somewhat unreal, and he’s afraid of losing his current high income.

With the current income, he can afford a down payment on a matrimonial home after working hard for another two or three months.

If he can maintain this pace, or even strive for two or three years, buying a house outright wouldn’t be an issue.

By then, Xiaogao will not only prove himself to his parents and impress his peers, but also deliver a full answer to his girlfriend who remained with him during his rough days.

However, as Sunshine Clinic rapidly expands, Xiaogao feels increasingly vulnerable to being replaced.

Sunshine Clinic now has a good reputation and gradually shapes into a brand.

As long as nothing goes awry, this brand will keep growing stronger.

At that point, without Xiaogao, Sunshine Clinic will still function just fine.

Even now, customers coming in for medication can purchase directly without needing him.

Li Jingsheng, in front of outsiders, laid things bare for Xiaogao, easing his uneasy mind significantly.

"This Mr. Wen Tianqi has experience in the operations of major internet companies. Through our conversation, I’ve come to appreciate his intentions. I’m asking for your opinion now, about possibly hiring him to manage the online store operations under you. What do you think? Feel free to refuse without any reservations; we can always cooperate with Mr. Wen in the future."

After hearing this, Xiaogao didn’t immediately respond.

Li Jingsheng didn’t press him.

Wen Tianqi remained calmly waiting.

This job would be ideal, but it’s okay if it’s not acquired.

"I want to ask, if he joins us, will it greatly affect my income?"

Xiaogao looked up at Li Jingsheng.

"Under normal circumstances, his addition will increase your income and reduce your workload, without significantly lowering your income. Your primary income currently comes from offline drug sales. If Mr. Wen truly has the capability to scale our online drug sales, your income will naturally rise. Conversely, if he lacks capability and leads to a downturn in our online sales, it means he’s not fit for the job, and I’ll dismiss him."

Li Jingsheng spoke without hesitation on these matters.

As an employer, with an increasing number of employees, he must be decisive when necessary.

If recruiting an operator, and they lack capability or are unsuitable for the job, then surely they must be dismissed promptly.

On the other hand, if Wen Tianqi truly has the capability.

Li Jingsheng’s Sunshine Clinic will take yet another significant step forward.

At that point, there’s a possibility of becoming an online pharmacy giant.

With funds available, they can also support Sunshine Clinic, helping enhance its hardware facilities and improve its medical standards.

"Then I have no objections. I’ve already promised to marry my girlfriend next year, so I really need this high-paying job."

Xiaogao rarely talks about these personal matters.

Saying this to Li Jingsheng naturally reflects some of his considerations.

"Rest assured, as long as the offline drug sales remain stable, your income won’t change drastically."

Li Jingsheng essentially offered Xiaogao a promise.

"Mr. Wen, bring your documents over tomorrow; if I see no issues, you can try out as our operational officer at the clinic."

In recruiting employees, he’s always operated with simplicity.

He’s careful about hiring, and recruits must genuinely possess skills that suit the position.

If they’re doctors or nurses in the diagnostics field, his hiring criteria would be even stricter.

"Thank you, thank you both for this opportunity. I’ll definitely cherish it."

Mr. Wen clasped his hands together in gratitude towards both of them.

"Dr. Gao, you can go ahead and get busy!"

After letting Dr. Gao leave, Li Jingsheng turned to Wen Tianqi.

"Mr. Wen, is your head hurting now?"

"A little bit, but it’s okay."

"Can you specify which part hurts? Let me check for you."

"Mainly this area, but sometimes it’s not too fixed. When severe, it feels like my whole head is about to split open. The most frequent pain area is this. Occasionally, it might be at the top or the back of the head."

Wen Tianqi described his symptoms.

Li Jingsheng first checked the painful spot on his head.

It was located on the right side of the head, the large area behind the temples.

The veins protruding on the temples were visible.

This indicates that the intracranial venous pressure might be quite high.

Through tactile examination, Li Jingsheng didn’t find any obvious anomaly.

However, pressing on the raised temples, he could feel the blood vessel walls seemed very thick.

At least thicker than most people’s blood vessel walls.

"Let me listen to your heart sound!"

He intended to listen to the heart to check for any cardiac issues.
