Chapter 569: Cooperating with the Hospital

Lu Ye paused in his eating, looked at Bai Zhi with a surprised expression, and asked, "You've already discussed the cooperation with the hospital with Dean Liu?"

"Yes, he and two hospital leaders spoke with me today, hoping I would consider joining the hospital as a doctor. I then shared my thoughts with him."

Lu Ye originally planned to wait a few days and then go to the military leaders to ask them to talk to the hospital about this matter.

After all, his military superiors had discussed the issue of Angelica dahurica with him before the Lunar New Year.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhi had already spoken with Dean Liu in person today.

"Do you think they'll agree?" Lu Ye looked at her with expectant eyes.

Bai Zhi smiled and said, "I don't know, I certainly won't agree immediately."

If she's not mistaken, they'll probably try to persuade her later on.

After all, getting her hired as a member of the hospital is much simpler than establishing a partnership.

It also facilitates management.

But for her, this is definitely not the best option.

Establishing a cooperative relationship means she is free.

She will have the right to operate and treat patients independently in the TCM clinic she opens in the future.

They also have the right to cooperate with other organizations.

If she were to be hired, she would need to fully comply with the hospital's rules and regulations and would be bound by the hospital's various disciplines and systems.

She felt restricted and found it difficult to do what she wanted to do.

Bai Zhi felt no anxiety or pressure whatsoever regarding whether Dean Liu would agree to the cooperation.

If you agree, we'll cooperate; if you disagree, we'll pretend it never happened.

Regardless, she held the reins.

She ate her meal, her tone relaxed, "Let's focus on treating that patient for now and wait for Director Liu's news." "Whatever decision you make, I will support you unconditionally."

He looked at her with doting eyes and said softly, "Of course, I support you in opening a traditional Chinese medicine clinic and hope to establish a cooperative relationship with the hospital."

His wife's dream is definitely not just about becoming a doctor in a hospital.

She wants to make her mark, but only if she has freedom.

But at the same time, he also hopes that his comrades will be able to receive timely medical treatment if they ever face danger in the future.

"Thank you, my husband. With you as my strong support, I will definitely succeed."

The young wife's call stirred the man's heart; his eyes burned with desire as he looked at her, and he almost dropped his chopsticks and pounced on her.

Bai Zhi realized she had stirred up trouble. She swallowed hard, then quickly stood up, intending to run away. "I'll go get some rice. I want to eat two bowls tonight."

Lu Ye chuckled as he watched his wife flirt with him and then run away in a cowardly manner.

After finishing her meal, Bai Zhi put the stewed chicken and chicken soup into a pot, planning to reheat it the next morning and bring it to Ye Qingbai.

After washing the pot, Lu Ye was still thinking about Bai Zhi's talk about opening a clinic.

He pulled her to sit down and then began to talk about the matter seriously.

"Honey, if we were to open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, have you decided where to open it?"

“I recently took a trip around and I think I should head towards the county town.”

Bai Zhi analyzed for him, "I checked the map. Qingshan County has a very advantageous geographical location. It is adjacent to the city to the west, and Yuanshan County and Wushan County to the northwest. It can be said to be a transportation hub. If a clinic is opened there, it will be more convenient for people from the two districts and three counties to come for medical treatment in the future."

"The only downside is that it's a bit far from the family compound, but if I buy a motorcycle, it will only take half an hour to get home."

In those days, travel was slow, and it always felt like half an hour to get home was a long way off.

But she experienced a fast-paced life; in later generations, office workers often have to commute for more than an hour.

So the distance from the county town to the family compound was nothing to her.

Besides, when I have more money in the future, I can buy a car, which will make the journey home even more convenient.

The girl in front of him seemed to have stars shining in her eyes when she talked to him about work.

Lu Ye never expected that she had even studied the geographical location of Qingshan County so thoroughly.

She is genuinely planning her career carefully.

She was so independent and self-reliant, and never truly depended on anyone.

Although she prepared everything herself, Lu Ye felt a little disappointed.

She felt that she was a useless husband.

But he still felt proud inside.

His lover should have the ability to live independently.

What if he... in the future?

Thinking of a certain possibility, Lu Ye's eyes darkened slightly, and he stopped his thoughts in time.

He must take good care of himself from now on, for her sake and for their little family.

He agreed with Bai Zhi's suggestion, saying, "The county town is not far from home, so opening a traditional Chinese medicine clinic is entirely feasible."

The key is that the county town is close to the military hospital.

If a partnership can be established with the hospital to set up a medical clinic within the hospital, it will be much more convenient for Bai Zhi to work in the future.

"So you think it's feasible?" Bai Zhi asked with a smile after receiving his affirmative answer.

Lu Ye smiled and looked at her with affection, nodding, "It's perfectly feasible."

Lu Ye's affirmation gave her great encouragement, and she said happily, "I will start preparing after the Lantern Festival."

Lu Ye had already reviewed the procedures and qualifications beforehand, and as long as the documents were complete, the process would be quick.

Once Bai Zhi has finished selecting a site and is preparing for renovations and purchasing equipment, he can complete all the necessary paperwork.

That day, after Bai Zhi finished treating Officer Sun, she planned to go for a stroll in the county town with Shen Qian.

Look at the motorcycles.

Upon hearing this news, Ye Qingbai was eager to go and insisted on going with them.

"What are you doing there, a patient like you?"

Ye Qingbai expressed considerable dissatisfaction with Bai Zhi's way of addressing him, saying, "What kind of patient are you? Having your arm in a sling doesn't affect your walking or your ability to offer advice."

He leaned closer to Bai Zhi and whispered, "It won't affect me paying for you."

His last words successfully moved Bai Zhi.

Although today I was just going to take a look around and get a feel for the market.

However, Ye Qingbai will still need to provide assistance when purchasing the car later.

She needs to set up a clinic and buy a motorcycle, and even if she uses Lu Ye's salary, she will still be a little short of money.

Ye Qingbai said he would lend her money.

We really can't afford to offend this big shot for now.

"Then you'll have to ask Dr. Shen if he agrees to let you take leave to go out?"

Shen Qian accompanied Bai Zhi to treat Officer Sun in the morning, and she would be off work after this was over.

Bai Zhi gave the decision-making power to Shen Qian. Ye Qingbai rolled his eyes and could only go to Shen Qian's office to find her.

Shen Qian had just changed out of her white coat.

As the weather warmed up, she wore a black cropped jacket, jeans, and ankle boots, looking neat and capable.

Having grown accustomed to seeing her in a white coat with a serious expression, Ye Qingbai's gaze lingered on her for a moment longer when he suddenly saw her in casual clothes.

Noticing Ye Qingbai standing at the door watching her, Shen Qian coughed lightly, feeling rather uncomfortable. "Is there something you need?"

Ye Qingbai snapped out of his daze and smiled, "Dr. Shen, Xiaozhi said she went to look at motorcycles and wanted me to be her advisor, so she asked me to come and ask you for leave."

Bai Zhi, who had just arrived at the door, exclaimed, "!!!"
