"Uh..."
Lin Jie couldn't help but burp, apologetically saying, "The food at this restaurant is just too delicious. I couldn't resist and ended up eating too much."
Luo Shanshan put down her teacup and said proudly, "This private restaurant is quite famous in Binhai. The food they make is naturally exceptional. If it weren't for my connection with the owner, I wouldn't have gotten a reservation that day."
Lin Jie looked at the antique and elegantly decorated private room and smiled, asking, "I guess the price is exceptional too?"
"I ordered the 588 per person standard. It's worth the price!"
Hearing Luo Shanshan's casual tone, Lin Jie realized that she was someone who wasn't short on money either.
"Lin Jie, besides thanking you for your guidance, there's something I'd like to discuss with you at this lunch today!"
Seeing that she was getting serious about the conversation, Lin Jie also sat upright and said, "What is it? Go ahead!"
"Do you know Zhujia Port?"
Lin Jie nodded and said, "Of course I know! It's a fishing village about an hour's drive from the city. Many city residents go there early in the morning to buy seafood."
Luo Shanshan nodded and said, "I'm from Zhujia Port."
"Zhujia Port's dock is just a simple village-level fishing harbor. Over the past decade or so, the coastal fishing resources have become scarce, and larger fishing boats can't dock there, making Zhujia Port increasingly desolate."
"Now they rely on beach aquaculture and small boats for coastal fishing to barely get by!"
"The population loss in Zhujia Port is severe now. When I was young, it was still bustling, but now, if you add the entire Zhujia Port and nearby villages, it would be good to have one or two thousand people."
"Now, I got some concrete news..."
Luo Shanshan lowered her voice and mysteriously said, "A large real estate group plans to develop a high-end housing project in Zhujia Port, primarily featuring townhouses and detached villas!"
Lin Jie frowned and said, "You want me to invest? I'm currently broke, and even my monthly medicine is earned by my sister's hard work."
Luo Shanshan snorted and said, "If I wanted to raise investments, I wouldn't be asking you!"
She said seriously, "Right now, there's only a small clinic in Zhujia Port, only capable of treating minor illnesses like colds and fevers. For more severe conditions, people have to go to the city hospital, and if it's a sudden critical illness, they can only leave it to fate."
"I've always planned to open a clinic in Zhujia Port similar to a small hospital, but I'm weak on my own and can't support such a clinic. I want to ask for your help!"
Lin Jie felt intrigued but maintained an unemotional expression, saying, "How can I help you? I'm not a doctor!"
Luo Shanshan chuckled and said, "You're not a doctor, but you're more formidable than any doctor I know!"
"Those challenging cases that the head of the emergency department couldn't solve were easily resolved with your guidance. The credit for this has now been attributed to me, making me the center of attention while also causing me to become isolated!"
Luo Shanshan shrugged indifferently, dismissively saying, "Anyway, I'll be leaving in a little over two months, so I won't bother with those bastards."
"As for your surgical skills, your friend's forehead injury stands as proof! Another proof is your neighbor, Zhang Li's abdomen..."
Lin Jie's face turned stern as he said unhappily, "Are you investigating me?"
"It's not intentional, Lin Jie, please don't be angry!"
Luo Shanshan hurriedly explained, "It was one time when the general surgery director used Zhang Li's suture as a classic example in a lecture, and I recognized it."
"Every surgeon has a unique style of suturing, like another form of identification card for us."
"This nearly perfect suturing skill is unforgettable, and I naturally recognized it as your work."
Lin Jie's expression softened, and he said, "What standards do you have in mind for this clinic that's like a small hospital?"
With sparkling eyes, Luo Shanshan said, "In my plan, there should be an ambulance, about six hospital beds, and a standard operating room capable of performing surgeries like C-sections, appendectomies, and suturing deep wounds!"
At this point, she awkwardly said, "The only surgeries I can perform independently now are C-sections, appendectomies, and surgeries of that level. I've only assisted in more complex surgeries without operating independently."
Lin Jie expressed no opinion and asked again, "Even such surgeries aren't typically allowed in ordinary clinics. Can you get approval from the health department?"
Luo Shanshan nodded and said, "Once I pass the surgical qualification exam, I'll be licensed to perform these kinds of surgeries."
"And the Zhujia Port area does need a medical facility capable of emergency surgeries; the operating room will be constructed in compliance with regulations. I have some connections, so getting approval won't be a problem."
"How do you want me to help you?" Lin Jie asked softly.
Wearing a mysterious smile, Luo Shanshan said, "You don't have a medical license, so you can't treat patients."
"But I can hire you as the clinic's management service staff. You could use your spare time to provide some patient consultations, which isn't illegal!"
Lin Jie knowingly smiled.
This was basically openly practicing medicine without a license, but with the cover of a clinic, as long as no medical accidents happened, everything would be fine.
"What about surgeries?" Lin Jie asked gravely.
Luo Shanshan's eyes became sharp as she solemnly said, "Lin Jie, this is not an ordinary matter; slight negligence can lead to fatalities. Unless you can prove your capabilities in front of me, I won't let you perform surgeries."
Lin Jie wasn't dismayed by her caution. On the contrary, it was a good thing.
Working with someone so careful minimizes risks, especially since what he would be doing is illegal.
"Let's talk about compensation first!"
Luo Shanshan smiled and said, "Believe it or not, my initial intention in opening this clinic isn't to make a profit but to do something practical for the ordinary people in my hometown."
"When those high-end residential projects are completed and the wealthy move in, we can start a home doctor service to make money from them!"
"As for your compensation..."
She scratched her head, pondered for a moment, and said, "A basic salary of ten thousand, with bonuses depending on your performance and workload. How does that sound?"
This salary level was considered above average in Binhai.
For Lin Jie, who never had a stable source of income, Luo Shanshan's job offer was a timely relief.
Suppressing his excitement, Lin Jie feigned a calm demeanor and said, "When do I start working?"
Excitedly slapping the table, Luo Shanshan happily said, "I've already purchased a piece of land. The clinic is under construction, with someone specifically responsible for overseeing the construction and subsequent decoration."
"My plan is for the clinic to open in August after I pass the qualification exam!"
"However, your work has already begun, and your role is to be my medical advisor, helping to resolve my doubts."
"For the salary during this period... it's still ten thousand, with a five hundred bonus for each tricky problem solved!"
