The next day, Wanghai Hospital.
Hua Yougui arrived at the hospital as usual. He hadn't been at the hospital yesterday, so he had no idea what had happened there.
However, when he arrived at the hospital early this morning, he found it strange. The usually bustling hospital was unexpectedly quiet, with only a few doctors and nurses whispering and chatting.
Hua Yougui frowned, thinking the doctors and nurses were slacking off, and he scolded, "Why are you chatting here instead of attending to patients?"
Normally, if Hua Yougui scolded like this, the doctors and nurses would immediately leave.
But this time, the doctors and nurses stood there dumbfounded, not moving.
"Are you rebelling? Didn't you hear what I said?" Hua Yougui scolded again.
However, the doctors and nurses still did not move.
Just as Hua Yougui was puzzled, he saw Hua Wulian, with a bruised face and limping, come out and said to Hua Yougui, "Dad, because there are no more patients to see."
"What? No more patients? What do you mean?" Hua Yougui didn't understand what Hua Wulian was saying.
"I mean, there are no more patients in the hospital," Hua Wulian said, bracing himself.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Yesterday there were 609 patients in the hospital, and now there's none?" Hua Yougui shouted angrily.
"There really aren't any left," Hua Wulian said with a bitter face.
Hua Yougui snorted coldly and walked towards the nearest emergency room. Upon entering, he was stunned.
The enormous emergency room was indeed empty; all the beds were unoccupied, not a single person in sight.
This frightened Hua Yougui, and he turned back to look at Hua Wulian, asking, "What exactly is going on? Where are the patients?"
"All the patients have recovered and been discharged," Hua Wulian replied.
"So they have all recovered." Hua Yougui let out a sigh of relief, finally showing a hint of a smile on his tense face, then said to Hua Wulian, "It seems it's all thanks to you, curing so many patients. Quickly, tell me, how much money did we make yesterday?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Wulian's face turned green. He gritted his teeth and said, "This... in total... we made 609 yuan."
"What? 609 patients and we only made 609 yuan? That's just one yuan per patient? Even a single check-up costs more than that," Hua Yougui's face turned even greener, nearly outmatching Hua Wulian's.
Hua Wulian had anticipated Hua Yougui's reaction and nervously took out a bundle of cash from his pocket.
Sure enough, the bundle was only a few hundred yuan.
With Wanghai City Hospital's size, they usually made ten thousand yuan per minute, yet yesterday, they made just over 600 yuan. This drove money-loving Hua Yougui almost insane.
Hua Yougui widened his eyes and shouted, "Can anyone tell me what on earth is going on?"
Hua Wulian quickly lowered his head, not daring to look Hua Yougui in the eye. Hua Yougui turned to other doctors, seeking answers.
But whoever he looked at would immediately lower their head, not daring to meet Hua Yougui's gaze.
At that moment, sudden hurried footsteps were heard outside the door as thousands of patients rushed in.
Moreover, all these patients shouted, "This is Wanghai Hospital."
"Let's hurry, let's line up for treatment."
Seeing so many patients arriving, Hua Yougui was overjoyed.
Although 600 patients had recovered, a thousand more came in, which would surely make up for yesterday's losses.
Hua Yougui immediately told the doctors, "Get back to your posts. We must keep all these patients here."
Yet, the doctors in front of him didn't move, standing as they were.
The day's events were too bizarre, always catching Hua Yougui off guard.
Hua Yougui was almost going crazy, shouting, "Can anyone tell me why you're not moving?"
Hua Wulian raised his head and said with a bitter face, "Because these patients aren't here to see our doctors."
"Nonsense, they clearly said they came to line up for treatment," Hua Yougui snapped.
At that moment, the patients rushed past, completely ignoring the doctors at the entrance, heading straight to the first-floor herbal medicine clinic.
Some even approached Hua Yougui to ask for the location of the herbal medicine clinic.
The over a thousand patients all swarmed towards the herbal medicine clinic.
Hua Yougui was astonished and looked at Hua Wulian, asking, "What's going on? Since when did Feng Wei become so influential?"
Hua Wulian said with a bitter face, "It's not Feng Wei, it's Wang Yan, the one who just arrived yesterday!"
Hua Yougui rolled his eyes and said, "I didn't expect this young man to be so strong. Tell him to charge more, definitely charge more."
Hua Wulian shook his head, saying, "It's useless; he only charges one yuan per patient."
...
That afternoon.
Hua Yougui sat in his office, furious, staring at the dejected Hua Wulian and the bald doctor in front of him, almost driven mad with rage.
He pointed at their noses, scolding, "Fools, you're all fools for letting a wolf into the house. We only made 200 yuan today, and at this rate, we'll be left with nothing."
Hua Wulian lowered his head and said, "Dad, you saw it today, even if you got involved, Wang Yan still wouldn't respect you."
Hua Yougui scolded, "If it weren't for you insisting on keeping him, the hospital wouldn't be like this."
Hua Wulian helplessly said, "I didn't expect him to be this kind of person at the time. But Dad, saying all this now is useless. What should we do? Maybe we should just fire Wang Yan."
Hua Yougui angrily said, "Saying you're a fool truly makes you a fool. Firing a doctor for no reason subjects us to investigations."
Hua Wulian asked, "Then what? Are we just going to let Wang Yan steal all our hospital's business?"
Hua Yougui's eyes shifted, saying, "I have a plan that will surely undermine the foundation and force Wang Yan out of the hospital immediately."
"What plan?" Hua Wulian asked excitedly.
"Shut down the herbal medicine clinic."
"But shutting down a clinic requires a collective study by the board; will the board agree?" Hua Wulian asked worriedly.
Hua Yougui smiled slightly and said, "The board is just for show. As long as the major shareholder agrees, it's fine."
"Our major shareholder is the Ouyang Group. Will President Ouyang agree to this?" Hua Wulian asked.
Hua Yougui smiled slightly and said, "Now all instructions from the Ouyang Group come from the Peak Group. Heh, I'll go to the Peak Group and report to Sir. In the face of the massive Peak Group, a small herbal doctor like Wang Yan is nothing."
