Now reading: Chapter 246 149: These 300 Yuan Were Worth It—Lidocaine with from Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic, a Fantasy novel by Fisherman by the River.

"Alright then!" The man agreed and fumbled around for a while before handing over a hundred yuan for the fee. "You can't go to hospitals or clinics without spending money the mont you walk in, and it's not cheap. This hundred yuan could buy so many loaves of bread!"

In so places, people like to eat white bread.

It's cheap and filling.

The surrounding patients and custors couldn't help but laugh.

Looking at this couple.

"Oh dear, can you talk a little less?"

The woman's face turned red.

Won usually care about saving face, and revealing their financial situation in public, telling everyone that their family eats white bread every day, made her feel a bit embarrassed.

"What's the big deal? Nowadays, we have bread every al, that's a good life! Back ho, every al was eating bran with vegetables."

The man, however, didn't mind.

This remark naturally provoked another round of laughter.

The woman wished she could crawl into a hole in the ground, her face reddened to the roots of her neck.

"Nowadays, many hotels consider sweet potato and bran rice as gourt food! It's healthy and very beneficial for the intestines."

Li Jingsheng helped the woman out.

She married a straightforward husband, which has its advantages, but also awkward monts.

For instance, speaking without considering his image in front of others and disregarding her feelings.

This kind of straightforward man is generally quite genuine, living a grounded life.

He took her to the dical imaging room for an X-ray. Due to limited clarity, it took quite an effort to clearly see a slight fracture line.

This was still with Li Jingsheng knowing where the fracture was after feeling the bones.

His small clinic now offers manual bone setting services. Each patient can get an X-ray.

Charging a hundred yuan each ti, helping him earn back the investnt with a hundred or so patients.

Additionally, the clinic's pharmacy business has picked up again these past few days, so when he has so money in hand, he's planning to bite the bullet and buy a new X-ray machine.

The only problem is the venue falling short.

Renting in such a bustling area has the advantage of high foot traffic. The downside is the rent being exorbitantly expensive and the space being small.

If he could acquire the whole building, there would definitely be enough space.

The rent for the first floor alone is already hurting him, so renting the entire building is unimaginable.

However, the rent for the second and third floors should be much cheaper.

This building is the landlord's own construction.

Most of the houses on this street are self-built.

Such is the nature of urban villages, densely packed houses, a good place for migrant workers to gather. They're mostly old houses.

Besides slightly higher facade rental, the housing is generally quite cheap.

Moreover, the facade rental in this area compared to those on the main street is not even remotely comparable.

Li Jingsheng heard renting a two-ter counter in a comrcial plaza costs five thousand a month.

The four store facades rented by the Construction Bank require a rent of one million per year. Whether it's true or not, the outrageous rent on the main street is definitely true.

Although he has ambitions now, he's still focusing on stability.

At the current earning pace, if he keeps developing cautiously for about a year, as long as no accidents happen, he should be able to afford a storefront.

By then, it'd an he truly has taken root.

The future is very promising, but he can't rush it and needs to accumulate step by step slowly.

"All done, let's discuss this outside!"

Li Jingsheng led the patient out of the dical imaging room, her husband was waiting outside.

The wife entered the dical imaging room with a male doctor, it seems the husband was sowhat uneasy.

"How is it, can it be treated?"

Her husband eagerly asked.

"There's a wrist fracture accompanied by joint displacent; it can be manually realigned. After a successful realignnt, it needs to be splinted for about four to six weeks."

"How much will that cost?"

"This type of realignnt usually costs at least three hundred and fifty yuan. Considering your difficulties, three hundred will do."

Li Jingsheng was really making an exception for this family.

At the second hospital's manual outpatient departnt, don't even think about it without seven to eight hundred.

Outpatient treatnts, many of which cannot be reimbursed.

So the difference between clinic and hospital treatnts is not much.

Only three hundred yuan, deducting the splinting cost, just earns him over two hundred technical fees. If it were a patient with better financial conditions, he'd at least charge four hundred yuan.

"Can it be a little less?"

The man evidently treated this place like a vegetable market.

Understandably, those repeatedly asking about prices are either truly poor or habitually frugal.

This middle-aged couple doesn't look like wealthy people, dressed very plainly, and both their nutritional conditions seem not too good.

"This is already the lowest price, you can think it over. She definitely needs treatnt; otherwise, the fracture will worsen, and treatnt costs at that ti will multiply. There's also a risk of deformity and disability."

Persuasion is a doctor's essential skill.

Li Jingsheng knew when to persuade and did not act like a gentleman.

Rather than waiting for the patient to encounter problems and then telling them, it's better to emphasize the consequences now and scare them into accepting proper treatnt.

"Alright, do it! That's so many loaves gone! You troubleso woman, why did you insist on changing the light bulb yourself next ti, should've let do it."

The man showed a pained expression.

Paid three hundred yuan.

It turned out his wife was hurt while changing the bulb.

From what can be seen, although he cared about the money, his love for his wife did not lessen.

At least when it ca to treatnt expenses, he didn't hesitate much to pay.

Li Jingsheng perford the Twist and Stretch Skill and the Pull-Press Squeeze Technique, successfully achieving bone setting for the patient.

He encountered a minor issue during the operation but thankfully didn't have a mishap on his first official day. After two attempts, it was finally successful.
