Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 566 Doctor Li and Madam Li
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Xuanfeng and others left separately from Zhou Facai.
After returning to the clinic, Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan began to arrange the clinic's furnishings.
All the desks purchased this time were placed in the hall, while the large mahogany bed was placed in the bedroom of Li Xuanfeng and his partner.
There were also three more ordinary beds, which Li Xuanfeng placed in several smaller rooms for the injured to rest.
Of course, Li Xuanfeng and the other man were only responsible for directing, and let the three big men complete the move.
After arranging the wooden tables and beds, Li Xuanfeng gave the honest man ten taels of silver and asked him to take two other men to buy a lot of bonsai trees and place them in the hall of the clinic.
In just a few hours, the clinic, which was originally empty after cleaning, has now been transformed into a presentable place. Green potted plants are placed around the hall, making the air in the hall much fresher.
The exquisite desk furnishings give this place an ancient atmosphere.
After placing all the potted plants, the honest man stepped forward and returned the remaining silver to Li Xuanfeng.
Of the ten taels of silver, only half was used to buy these potted plants, leaving five taels.
Li Xuanfeng did not take it, shook his head and smiled: "The rest of the silver is for you."
The other two big men were shocked after hearing this. They had vaguely understood what Li Xuanfeng meant. He wanted to give the silver to him, not to them. He wanted to give all the remaining silver to this honest man!
A strong sense of jealousy suddenly emerged in the hearts of the two, but they did not dare to show their dissatisfaction. This was Li Xuanfeng's money, not their wages, and it was his freedom to give it to whomever he wanted.
Moreover, just now only the honest and simple man dared to stand in front of that group of people, and the two of them felt inferior to him.
Hearing that Li Xuanfeng was going to give him the remaining silver, the honest man shook his head violently and said in a rough voice: "I have already taken one or two taels of silver from you as wages, and you must not take the rest."
As he said this, the honest man stuffed the remaining silver into Li Xuanfeng's hand and even took a few steps back, meaning that he would never take this silver.
Hearing the words of the honest man, Li Xuanfeng couldn't help but look at him more, then turned to look at the other two men and said with a smile: "Then I'll give it to you two."
The other two men were overjoyed when they heard this and shouted loudly, "Thank you, Boss Li."
As they were talking, the two of them stretched out their hands, ready to take the silver from Li Xuanfeng.
They could not contain their joy; if they could get this silver, they wouldn't have to worry about their livelihood for the whole year.
Although the honest man felt a little jealous when he saw the silver, his gaze remained firm and he did not step forward again just because Li Xuanfeng wanted to give the silver to the other two people.
To the surprise of the three of them, Li Xuanfeng put away the silver in his hand, and once again looked at the honest man who had taken two steps back, and asked with a smile: "What's your name?"
The honest man raised his hand to scratch the back of his head and answered, "My name is Gao Sheng."
Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly and asked with a smile: "Are you willing to be a clerk in my clinic in the future?"
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, the three big men's expressions suddenly became extremely surprised. The honest big man immediately smiled and said, "I do!"
He was worried about his family's livelihood and looked for work everywhere, but it was difficult to make ends meet.
There are old and young people in the family
Unexpectedly, he was called by Zhou Facai, a notorious miser, and thought he would be exploited by him again. Unexpectedly, he met such a nice young man. Not only did he earn a tael of silver, but he also got a stable job.
With this job, he no longer has to worry about his wife, children and the elderly at home going hungry.
However, the expressions of the other two big men changed drastically. Li Xuanfeng's words did not include them, and he only asked the honest big man's name. It was obvious that he did not intend to use them.
Judging from Li Xuanfeng's generosity today, the wages for working for him must be high, so the two of them shamelessly said, "We are also willing to work for you!"
If the salary was just a few taels of silver a month, not to mention having the nerve to say this, I would even let them work like slaves.
After hearing this, Li Xuanfeng smiled and said, "Our clinic is too small and we don't need so many staff. Please go back."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's direct refusal, the two immediately realized that their guess was correct and Li Xuanfeng had no intention of using them at all.
The two men suddenly looked as pale as death, as if they had lost something extremely important. They were extremely upset. When that group of people came to bully them just now, they should have stood in front of Li Xuanfeng like the honest big man.
At this time, the two of them also knew that Li Xuanfeng had deliberately given them the remaining silver from buying potted plants because of their personalities.
Obviously, their answers completely disappointed Li Xuanfeng.
But regret was of no use at this point. The two knew they had no chance at all, so they turned around and left the clinic with distressed looks.
Thinking that this honest man would become Li Xuanfeng's employee in the future and receive a considerable salary every month, they felt that the one or two taels of silver they earned today were suddenly not as good as before.
After the two men left, Li Xuanfeng smiled and said to Gao Sheng, "How about I offer you a salary of ten taels of silver a month?"
Gao Sheng's expression suddenly changed after hearing this, and he waved his hands quickly, saying, "Absolutely not, this is too much. I usually only get a hundred coins for a full month's work."
At this moment, a strange thought emerged in Gao Sheng's mind. The young man in front of him seemed to not care about money at all. He opened his mouth and asked for a scary amount of money.
Ten taels of silver was already the salary of a high-ranking official in the city. If others knew that a laborer like him could get ten taels of silver a month, they would probably be stunned.
In fact, Li Xuanfeng really didn't care about money at all. Not only was money of no use to him, but he also had tens of thousands of taels of silver in his hands.
From Gao Sheng's expression, Li Xuanfeng knew that he would definitely not agree to this salary, so he said, "Then five taels of silver."
Unexpectedly, Gao Sheng continued to shake his head and said, "It's still too much. I can't afford this salary."
Li Xuanfeng smiled and explained: "Li will not let you take this salary for nothing. I give you this salary because there are many things I need you to do."
Gao Sheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "I am a rough man and can only do some hard work. I am afraid that I will disappoint you. Why don't you find someone else?"
Li Xuanfeng's expression showed surprise. He didn't expect that Gao Sheng not only had an honest face, but also had such an honest personality. He would not lose himself because of the temptation of wages, and was even worried that he would not be able to do the job.
If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be instantly tempted by the salary of five taels of silver, and would think of ways to cheat even if he was unable to do the job.
However, it was precisely Gao Sheng's honesty that made Li Xuanfeng take a fancy to him and choose him to be an clerk in the clinic.
Thinking of this, Li Xuanfeng could only smile helplessly and said in a deep voice: "Okay, then it's two taels of salary per month, don't refuse it anymore. As for how to do the work, I will teach you."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's firm tone, Gao Sheng wanted to say something else: "But..."
Although Li Xuanfeng has reduced the wages to two taels, it is still dozens of times more than the wages of ordinary people.
Li Xuanfeng glared at him fiercely and said sternly, "No buts, it's settled!"
Seeing Li Xuanfeng's unquestionable tone, Gao Sheng had no choice but to bow deeply and respectfully, saying in a deep voice: "Thank you for thinking highly of me. I will do my best to serve you in the future!"
At this time, Gao Sheng had secretly made up his mind that he must be worthy of the wages given by Li Xuanfeng, even if it meant going through fire and water for him.
Although Gao Sheng was not a very smart person, he already knew at this time that Li Xuanfeng was taking care of him, and he was extremely grateful to Li Xuanfeng in his heart.
Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It's getting late, you should go back too, and come to the clinic tomorrow morning."
Gao Sheng clasped his fists and bowed deeply again, then turned around and left the clinic and walked towards his home.
At this time, Gao Sheng couldn't wait to share this happy event with his wife, and their family's difficulties would no longer exist.
Seeing Gao Sheng leaving, Li Xuanfeng couldn't help but shake his head and smile. In fact, after understanding Gao Sheng's character, he knew that Gao Sheng would not accept too high a salary, so he mentioned a salary of ten taels at the beginning.
As expected, Gao Sheng was unwilling to accept such wages, so Li Xuanfeng gradually reduced the wages until he could accept it.
If he had said less at the beginning, Gao Sheng would probably have felt that even one or two taels of silver as a wage was too much.
After Gao Sheng left, Shen Luoyan walked over to Li Xuanfeng, a half-smile on her pretty face, and asked, "What did you call me today?"
Li Xuanfeng smiled and said, "My lady, what's wrong?"
Shen Luoyan covered her mouth and chuckled, "Of course not, it's just that this is the first time I heard you call me that, and I'm still a little uncomfortable."
Li Xuanfeng smiled at her, then continued, "Senior Sister, now that we have become mortals, I can no longer call you Senior Sister."
"I'll just call you Xiaoyan or Madam."
Shen Luoyan blushed slightly after hearing this, and said with a sweet smile: "Okay, then I will call you my husband."
Although she felt a little shy because of this intimate name, Shen Luoyan had long been looking forward to addressing Li Xuanfeng as husband and wife.
Li Xuanfeng thought for a moment, then continued with a smile: "From now on, others will address us as Doctor Li and Madam Li."
Shen Luoyan looked at him with some doubt and said with a smile: "Although you have taken over this clinic, do you know any medical skills from the mortal world?"
Seeing the doubtful look on her pretty face, Li Xuanfeng smiled and said, "Of course, I won't do anything I'm not sure of."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's affirmative tone, Shen Luoyan did not ask any more questions. She had no doubt about his words at all.
Since Li Xuanfeng said yes, then it must be true.
