Li Jingsheng obviously had more thoughts, just didn’t express them.

Some things are still too early to be discussed.

"Haha, I like your character. You handle things with tact and know how to be grateful. If the matter of buying the small courtyard can be settled, it should be within the next few months. Make sure you’re prepared financially."

Dean Fu was very happy to have made progress.

Because Li Jingsheng was indeed very important to the Second Hospital.

"Um...how much funding is needed? Can you give me a rough idea? I really have no clue. It would be a shame if you and the leaders get me such a great opportunity, and I can’t seize it."

Li Jingsheng is very stable in handling matters now.

He must be thoroughly prepared.

But making money cannot be rushed.

Sunshine Clinic’s ability to generate revenue is quite strong now.

Operating legitimately and having this level of revenue is already very good.

"I’m not sure how much exactly it will cost. Before anything is confirmed, I’ll find out the exact amount for you. But since we’re helping you, the price will definitely be very low. Just estimate based on the prices of nearby second-hand houses. It’s impossible for you to buy it at a commercial property price."

That was giving him a baseline.

Nearby second-hand houses are not too expensive, nor too cheap.

If Li Jingsheng could really buy it at a housing price, he’d be gaining significantly.

The two ended their conversation, and Li Jingsheng said goodbye and left.

Dean Fu surprisingly got up to see him off.

This kind of treatment is quite high-level.

"Oh, Xiaou is here too!"

Dean Fu was slightly stunned to see Ou Qinglan waiting for Li Jingsheng outside.

Then he noticed the boxed meal Ou Qinglan was holding.

"Xiaoli, did you come to see me without even having dinner?"

"He heard you had something to discuss and insisted on seeing you first. I advised him to eat before seeing you, but he wouldn’t listen."

Ou Qinglan was being clever.

She seemed to be criticizing Li Jingsheng for being silly, but in reality, she was praising her boyfriend’s respect for the dean.

"Xiaoli, next time you come to see me, you must not do this. A man should listen to his wife at home. If Xiaou tells you to eat before coming over next time, and you don’t listen, I won’t let you into the office, got it?"

Dean Fu sternly criticized Li Jingsheng.

"Yes, I will pay attention next time." Li Jingsheng could feel that Dean Fu’s gaze towards him had indeed softened.

At least going hungry for so long was worth it.

"Next time don’t tell the dean about such things, or I’ll get scolded!"

Li Jingsheng softly reproached Ou Qinglan as they left hand in hand.

As they walked out of the hospital, Ou Qinglan smiled, "Still scolding me? If I hadn’t mentioned it, how would the dean know how much you respect him?"

"That’s why you’re still too young. You can’t tell which sentence is a scolding and which is a compliment."

Li Jingsheng laughed and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"Hmph, you really think I’m that dumb? It’s just that I can’t be bothered with social niceties. The food’s gotten cold. We’ll heat it up at the clinic before you eat."

Ou Qinglan has a good father and really doesn’t need to worry much.

Li Jingsheng couldn’t learn from her, he had to rely on his own efforts. He could only expand his network bit by bit, then save money and improve his skills, continuously making the clinic stronger.

Back at the clinic, he calculated that the building area of the clinic was nearly 900 square meters across two floors.

This doesn’t even count the yard area.

Currently, the prices of old houses in the surrounding area are generally over 8,000, and some landlords desperate to get rich even set prices over 10,000 per unit.

Buying this small courtyard is really not an easy task.

Even at residential prices, it would cost at least 8 to 9 million yuan.

Li Jingsheng currently has less than one million yuan in hand, and hasn’t even considered individual taxes yet.

He felt a headache coming on.

Where can he find that kind of money?

Even if he can save 400,000 yuan a month after deducting employee and other expenses, it would take more than two years.

With a personal tax rate of over 45% above 900,000 yuan, such a terrible tax rate only makes saving that money take longer.

However, if this courtyard is only 9 million, once the news is out, many people would be interested.

Because once bought, whether rented out or used for business, it would be very promising.

Or selling it would at least earn several million more.

"The clinic’s large-scale pharmaceutical sales have basically reached a bottleneck. To further increase sales, it’s necessary to sweep business teams or develop alternative sales models."

There are many limitations, and it may be risky.

Li Jingsheng dared not take this risk.

Currently, stability must be prioritized, before pursuing further development.

If pharmaceutical sales can’t grow larger, then breakthroughs can only be sought in diagnostic and treatment services.

Indeed, if some high-end services could be developed, their earning potential would easily outpace pharmaceutical sales.

This time, Li Jingsheng participated in a skills competition, which earned him significant recognition and fame.

These are very advantageous conditions.

"Still can’t take too big a step!"

He wants to perform level three or four surgeries in the clinic, but it’s simply not possible.

His current surgical experience and skill level are still insufficient.

While eating, he pondered with a frown.

Ou Qinglan practiced her suturing skill with a piece of pigskin.

Though she was a rich family’s daughter, she had a particularly good quality of not being afraid to endure hardship and willing to study.

For instance, she practiced suturing skill whenever she could at Li Jingsheng’s clinic.

Rumor had it that she also practiced knotting techniques at home.

...

Time passed day by day, and the diagnostic and treatment business of Sunshine Clinic improved more and more.

Shao Bing, this unfortunate soul, met his life-saving benefactor — Li Jingsheng, after which he not only remarried his ex-wife but also became increasingly confident.

He gradually gained a bit of reputation in the Sunshine Clinic.

Primarily because he had strong ability himself.

This year’s skills competition had much more influence after being broadcast online and in some news than previous years.

Medical safety and technology become public focuses.

"Boss, you’ve seemed to hit the top trending topics."

One day at work, Tang Ping said to Li Jingsheng with a smile.

"Trending topics? Nothing happened recently at our clinic!"

The mention of trending topics made Li Jingsheng anxious.

He was afraid that something had gone wrong.

"Look for yourself!"

Tang Ping opened the trending news list and was surprised, "Wow, it was ranked thirty-fourth at 5 a.m., how did it jump to twenty-seventh now!"
