Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic

Chapter 499 - 233: Shakedown, Give Me a Chance to Make Merit (Part 2)

On Saturday, Li Jingsheng was also working, which brought great convenience to those who work.

Working in a company or office, sometimes it’s really hard to take a leave.

Office workers often suffer from shoulder pain and cervical pain, which can be treated by manual repositioning.

Brilliant bone setting repositioning doctors are indeed very rare.

It’s even rarer to reach the level of Li Jingsheng. Seeking his massage and repositioning can greatly alleviate the pain.

Being promoted to attending physician also meant his status at the hospital increased significantly.

Doctors at least have to be promoted to attending physician to have a little bit of status.

That day, just after seven o’clock in the morning, Li Jingsheng heard the sound of a band playing outside.

He thought to himself, there’s been no talk of any elderly passing away nearby!

After getting up and washing up, he went out to check.

It was only then he discovered that the facade of his former clinic had been renovated, opening today.

A lion dance team and band had been invited to celebrate at the store’s entrance.

"Only took a week to open; this is clearly trying to ride the popularity of Sunshine Clinic!"

Li Jingsheng knew exactly what was going on.

You could see a lot of people gathered outside.

Li Jingsheng happened to be going out to buy breakfast, taking the opportunity to check out the situation of the clinic opposite.

This trick was learned from Boss Zhao.

How can one allow others to rest peacefully beside one’s own turf?

That person snatched Li Jingsheng’s peach and opened right at the diagonal; the two would definitely be competitors.

Li Jingsheng naturally had to see the opponent’s reality.

He glanced at his phone; it was only seven forty. Getting so rowdy without fear of disturbing others’ sleep?

He went to the bun shop to buy some buns.

The shopkeeper’s wife now greeted him very warmly, speaking with noticeably more respect than before.

"Dr. Li, the Sunshine 2 Clinic across the street is opening; could it be your branch?"

"No! I’m just running a small operation; how could I open a branch? Choosing that name took quite some thought!"

Li Jingsheng’s expression changed slightly. He bought buns and soy milk while eating and went over to watch.

It really was Sunshine 2 Clinic.

However, the rival’s signboard was done very high-end and eye-catching.

The entrance even had a banner stating that during Sunshine 2 Clinic’s opening, all customers receive a thirty percent discount on medicine purchases.

Quite a few people were indeed buying medicine inside the clinic.

It looked like a bustling business.

Li Jingsheng went in for a look; the medicine display inside was almost identical to what he used to have.

Entering the clinic, one side had a counter displaying various health medications, and the racks behind it were arranged just like before, with regular medicines displayed on top.

The other side was the consultation table, rest area, and infusion room...

Damn!

This rat is copying everything!

Copying is not illegal; it was exploiting a loophole.

The clinic’s name was a clever imitation, playing the game of imitation, with the clinic’s interior layout copied. Isn’t the intention to make every customer and patient mistakenly think this is a branch of Sunshine Clinic?

That rat was wearing a white coat, sitting behind the consultation table, diagnosing patients.

After looking through it, Li Jingsheng’s face turned very unpleasant, and he quickly left.

He was certainly angry inside but had no way to deal with this rat.

"Old Zhao!"

Li Jingsheng came out and saw Old Zhao standing outside, sizing up the newly opened Sunshine 2 Clinic.

"Brother Li is a big boss now, a successful man. How come you’re just having buns and soy milk for breakfast? Come, come, come, I’ll take you out for a meal."

Boss Zhao greeted him with great enthusiasm.

This attitude was like flattering and fawning over Station Chief Qiao.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I’ve gotten used to eating this stuff. There’s work at the clinic, so I won’t chat with you; see you."

Li Jingsheng left with lots on his mind.

He was thinking about whether to write a notice at his clinic, stating that no branches exist?

But doing so might make customers and patients feel he is narrow-minded.

After all, Sunshine 2 Clinic had never claimed to be a branch of Sunshine Clinic.

Li Jingsheng’s clinic opened its doors, and patients and customers came for consultations and medicine as usual.

However, it was noticeable that the traffic was slightly less than the previous days.

"Dr. Li, is the Sunshine 2 Clinic opposite your branch? If so, there’s too much of a queue here, so I’ll go over there."

A customer asked loudly.

"No, we don’t have any branches of Sunshine Clinic."

After hearing this, Li Jingsheng felt even worse inside.

Shit, Sunshine 2 Clinic—people would definitely think it’s Sunshine 2 Clinic.

He immediately instructed Han Siying to buy red paper and wrote two notices in ink: Sunshine Clinic has no branches, only this one.

One was posted outside the consultation hall, where customers and patients could see it immediately.

The other was posted on a standing billboard, moved to the entrance outside the clinic.

Since Dean Fu of the Second Hospital supported him once, the city administrators became quite friendly towards his clinic.

He no longer had to worry about the billboard at the entrance being confiscated.

After finishing all this, Li Jingsheng confidently treated the patients.

Xiaogao was doing fine with the medicine sales.

By noon, before twelve, all patients were treated.

Clearly felt the consultation traffic was less than usual.

Li Jingsheng stepped out of the clinic again to check the situation at the clinic opposite.

Only to see long queues on the street, an unprecedented spectacle.

A lot of people were saying Sunshine 2 Clinic was a branch of Sunshine Clinic, praising the new clinic’s advanced medical skills, saying top-notch doctors came from a certain major institution in Dongguang Province.

"Where did all these people come to see doctors and buy medicine?"
