Light came in from the window and there was silence. The hospital is very deserted at this time, and the busier period is the two hours from 10 to 12 o'clock in the morning. There were bursts of laughter from the internal medicine clinic nearest here, and the doctors and nurses were teasing each other.
It has become more and more deserted recently, Xiao Long sighed in his heart. This hospital was very busy three years ago, but since the resignation of the outstanding chief physician of internal medicine, my father's disciple, the situation has begun to deteriorate. Especially the resignation of the highly skilled chief physician of surgery a year ago has caused a great decrease in patients. . The current situation of the hospital is deteriorating, and the deficit is increasing every month.
Although the hospital's operating conditions are not good, Xiao Long, as the director, doesn't care at all. For the deficit, he has his own means to make up for it. It doesn't matter if the hospital's business is not good. He has no intention of competing with other hospitals.
This hospital was founded by his deceased father, and Xiao Long just inherited it as a matter of course. He had no interest in practicing medicine. After becoming the president, he rarely saw patients and had no intention of running the hospital.
Speaking of which, being the dean is actually pretty good. Although the hospital is operating at a loss and you have no way of knowing how others evaluate you in their hearts, at least you are still respectful on the surface. Thirty-two-year-old Xiao Long has already deeply tasted the sweetness of fame.
Xiao Long walked into the dean's office to read a catalog sent by an antique shop named Gu Longxuan. I recently bought some new antiques. Some are very precious. He was very interested in an early Qing Dynasty dish, and after asking Gu Longxuan, he learned that it would cost at least 500,000 yuan to buy it. Although I haven't seen the actual one yet, it is said to be quite collectible.
The boss of Gu Longxuan has been chattering before
He peddled to Xiao Long: "Others want to buy this
The battle for dish has already started, I still want to
Send the dishes to you, the dean, like this

crying. "
Although it was business flattery, Xiao Long still
It feels very useful. Since his student days, he has been

Xiao Long specially stayed in a large room on the second floor of the hospital
There are four rows of glass display racks, which are full of beautiful things.
The floor is filled with his collection. The collection here
Most of them are pots, and there are hundreds of them. In addition,
Several hundred more items are in storage.
There is a red blanket spread in the corner of the exhibition room, and there are

room, or a room in an art gallery.
Visitors who are lucky enough to come will have a personal performance by Xiao Long

It’s worth the money to go.
Although the hospital was already unable to make ends meet, Xiao Long still refused to give up his hobby of collecting. On the one hand, it is certainly out of interest, on the other hand, collecting is also regarded by him as an investment. It was said to be an investment, but Xiao Long never thought of cashing it in. He would rather boast to others that he owns a collection worth tens of millions of dollars than sell it to relieve the hospital's operating difficulties. In fact, he had his own intention in doing so, because women who were invited to view antiques could not help but be attracted by the elegant atmosphere created by this art work.
There was a gentle knock on the door, and a man came from
Xiao Long walked over quietly behind him.
There was a knock on the door and he knew it was the purser. This man
People have always been gentle.
"Shunfeng Trading Company has sent a payment notice." The secretary's bony fingers held four or five stacked papers, placed them in front of Xiao Long's eyes, and continued in a hoarse voice: "This month it is seventy-two thousand. Four hundred yuan, the Pharmacy Department has confirmed and stamped it. Including the 215,000 yuan owed before, the total is 287,400 yuan. Shunfeng Trading Company said that it would be okay to pay half of it in advance for the time being, and also asked When can they come to withdraw money?”
Xiao Long picked up the payment notice with his fingertips and threw it into the folder without looking at it.
"Tell them, I will call to inform them later."
"You have always delayed like this before. Please be sure to give me a clear date. Otherwise, I will be in trouble." The purser said with a grimace.
"I have already said that I will notify them of the payment date in the future!"
Xiao Long's voice was low. His eyes were fixed on Gu Longxuan's catalog, and he glanced at the purser's clothes from the corner of his eye.
The purser glanced at the antique catalog with a gloomy look, "Shunfeng Trading Company said that if the payment is further delayed, the supply of medicines may be stopped." After saying this in a dry tone, he turned and left, still silent. interest.
Xiao Long glared at the door with disgust and turned around.
Regardless of whether it was the drug dealer's bill or anything else, Xiao Long didn't want to worry about it. The most important thing right now was to get half a million yuan and get his favorite dish from the early Qing Dynasty.
Lai Qianxiu! The figure of this woman immediately appeared in Xiao Long's mind. She has always been the best person to provide money. However, he just borrowed one million yuan from her a week ago. It would be more difficult for her to lend another five million yuan now. He should borrow five million yuan from her in one month after Yuan, and the five million yuan that I will borrow in the future are wasted, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Xiao Long thought of Long Zhu again. This woman had a lot of money. She ran a first-class fashion store and sold imported clothes of popular styles. She should make a lot of money. According to the introducer Xia Zhifang, she has a net worth of at least 100 million yuan, but unfortunately, he and she are not in a relationship where you can get money with money.
Where should I go? Let's sit down at Lai Qianxiu's house. But it was still early and he didn't want to go there now. Xiao Long drove aimlessly for a while and suddenly thought of meeting Xia Zhifang, but he didn't know if he was at home now. Xiao Long parked the car on the street and dialed the phone. The person who answered the phone was an old servant of Xia Zhifang's family.
"Sir is not at home now."
Xia Zhifang has always been single, and there is only this old servant in the family.
"I'm Xiao Long, do you know where he went?" Xiao Long often visits Xia Zhifang's house, so he talks to his old employer more casually.
"I don't know. He didn't say where he went or when he would come back. If he comes back, I will tell him that you called."
"No, I'll call again."
"OK, bye."
The old servant's voice made people feel chilled. Xia Zhifang has been living in a dilapidated home with this old servant. Xia Zhifang, who is thirty-five years old, has no plans to get married yet. He wanders around all day long. It is common for him not to go home for two weeks in a row. And he will never tell you in advance that he place to go.
Despite this, Xia Zhifang has never done anything illegal, nor has he indulged in pleasure. It can be said that he is a man with no hobbies. If he insists on having any hobbies, he is interested in inquiring about various gossips in society.
Xiao Long had no destination again and had no choice but to roam on the road. While he was driving, he was thinking about Dragon Ball. Xiao Long has known Long Zhu for five months, and the introducer was Xia Zhifang.
After roaming for a while, Xiao Long looked at his watch and felt that it was almost time, so he drove the car to Lai Qianxiu's house.
Lai Qianxiu runs a large home furnishings store in the commercial street. This high-end store is very popular with customers. Xiao Long rarely drives to her store, but goes directly to her home, a quiet house. Lai Qianxiu's house was bought from a well-known industrialist before World War II. It is surrounded by a long wall and has a large main house nestled among lush trees. Xiao Long did not park the car at the front entrance of her home, nor at the side door. The entrance and exit where he parked his car was a brand new specially designed door - that was the entrance specially built for Xiao Long by the owner Lai Qianxiu. Lai Qianxiu felt that it was somewhat inappropriate to allow Xiao Long to frequently enter and exit from the main door, so he built a special door for him, which is enough to show Lai Qianxiu's attitude towards Xiao Long. When Xiao Long arrived at Lai Qianxiu's house, he felt as if he had entered his own front door. He walked along the courtyard and could vaguely see the lights at the entrance through the lush trees.
Xiao Long opened the door and walked in. When taking off her shoes, the maid An Ping came over. An Ping is Lai Qianxiu's personal servant. Among the three maids in Lai Qianxiu's family, An Ping is the oldest one, already forty-two-three. Years old.
