76 Witfield Street, this is the address of the clinic left by his uncle. Unlike what Li Han imagined, No. 76 looks like an ordinary residential building from the outside, with a small garden, but there is a big sign next to the wooden door, on which a red cross is drawn, and it reads "Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic - Li".
The fence made of solid wood is only half a person high, and the yard is neatly tied, with a flat grass, a few small flower beds, two small trees, a few bushes, and a small pool, and even a stone arch bridge on it.
The small building is about 3 stories high, with a gray roof, beige walls and white windows, it is Victorian style, and it looks a bit historical.
His uncle's lawyer, Joseph Rich, was waiting for him in the clinic, and Li Han stood at the door for a few seconds before walking in. To make it easier for patients to get in and out, the door was open, and a brown-headed, slender Caucasian girl was busy at the counter, and three guests sat on the sand waiting for treatment.
Li Han hesitated for a moment, and was about to ask the girl's lawyer's whereabouts, when the white man in his forties on the single sand stood up, he was wearing a dark blue dark pattern three-piece suit, with a professional smile on his face: "Mr. Li Han?" ”
Li Han stretched out his hand and shook him: "Yes, Mr. Richie, right?" Nice to meet you. ”
Rich is medium but athletic, which makes him look less like a lawyer and more like a cop or a fitness trainer or something.
"I did work as a policeman for a long time before," Richie said with a smile, and took Li Han out of the door, going up the stairs on the second floor outside, for the sake of the owner's **. The living room was clean and cozy, "but I quit my job a few years ago and I needed to pay for my three children, and the work at Scotland Yard was hectic and dangerous, but the pay was not so good, so I came back to work as a lawyer, and I studied law in college." ”
"It seems that the police in any country are not easy to do." Li Han smiled, "I'm glad you can be a lawyer again, otherwise we may not have a chance to get to know each other." ”
"Yes, I'm glad I changed careers too." Rich picked up a sealed file bag on the coffee table, "This is Dr. Lee's will, and the list of assets......
It took more than an hour to sign the formalities, and the rest of the work that needed to run various government departments was Richie's, and theoretically speaking, this clinic was already Li Han's.
"There's also a doctor and an assistant in the clinic, they're working downstairs, I'll take you to get to know them."
The assistant is a white girl named Jenny Lucius, a 24-year-old woman who has just graduated from college and has been working here for four months. The doctor's name is Chen Daofu, he is working inside, he is 51 years old, he has been working here for 12 years, his family is in the United Kingdom, and he has a daughter who goes to university in Oxford.
After sending the remaining two patients away, it was time to get off work, Chen Daofu took off his white robe and walked out: "I'm sorry, boss, I was too busy just now to come out to greet you." ”
Li Han smiled and shook his hand: "It's okay, work is more important, you are making money for me now." Although he has never been a boss, he also knows what they want, and gave them peace of mind in time, "The working hours of the clinic and your salary will not change for the time being, but this month's bonus will be increased by half as a welcome gift for me, the new boss." ”
Jenny cheered, and Chen Daofu also thanked him happily. Since the accident with the boss's family, what they are most worried about is that the future boss of the inheritance will directly close the clinic or hire their own people to work in the clinic. Now that both of them have stayed, and there is half a month's extra money, it seems that as long as they work hard in the future, at least they don't have to worry about losing their jobs.
However, Chen Daofu hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, in the past, Dr. Li and I used to see each other, and there were more than a dozen guests a day, and I couldn't see them alone." If you just postpone the appointment for a few days, it will take a long time, but I am afraid that it will affect the income of the clinic. ”
"No, I also studied Chinese medicine in China, and we are a family of Chinese medicine," Li Han said with a smile, "There is no problem with sitting in the clinic." Of course, I also have to take a closer look at the income of the clinic, and if necessary, I will invite another experienced old Chinese medicine doctor to come and see you. ”
Chen Daofu nodded and did not express his opinion. In the TCM industry, whether it is a doctor or a patient, generally speaking, the old TCM practitioner is better than the young person, whether it is knowledge or experience. Surgeons may also have individual problems, and their hands may tremble easily when they are older, but TCM does not have this problem. He didn't know how the young boss's medical skills were, the higher the doctor's skills in the clinic, the better the reputation of the clinic, and the higher the bonus he received. If he could, of course he would prefer that the boss invite an old Chinese medicine doctor with excellent medical skills to come over for a consultation.
"How about a dinner for the evening?" Li Han asked, "I just came to the UK, and there are still many places that need your help, such as customs, which I don't understand at all." ”
"Of course, thank you, boss."
When Li Han first came, he naturally didn't know what restaurants were nearby, so Chen Daofu recommended a Sichuan restaurant. "Just around the corner of this street, the owner is a second-generation immigrant, as long as he says it, he will cook authentic Sichuan food, the taste is not bad, and we usually go there for dinner."
"Okay, let's go, do they deliver takeaways?"
"He doesn't deliver it, but there is a Chinese restaurant on Warren Street to the north, and I sometimes call their takeaway, which is not bad, not very delicious, but it can still be eaten and the amount is sufficient."
"If you're looking for a market, there's a special store on Charlotte Street to the south, it's the largest warehouse in the UK, and the prices are good......"
Chen Daofu and Jenny are very attentive and considerate people, and in a few minutes from the clinic to the restaurant, they introduced almost all the surrounding facilities. Li Han is not a person who likes to go out, there is a Regent's Park a few hundred meters northwest where you can run, and there is a large market to the south where you can buy daily necessities and food, which is enough to meet his daily needs.
"You speak great English, and it's standard English." Jenny looked at the menu with her head in her hands, complimenting.
"Thank you, it was my aunt, your former boss's wife, who urged me to learn it, and she insisted that I should learn English pronunciation, not vulgar American pronunciation. If I hadn't studied Chinese medicine, my uncle would have asked me to come to the UK for university. Li Han said with a smile, thinking that it was the days of memorizing various prescriptions and memorizing English back then, I really don't know how I came over.
"The boss's wife is a very nice person." Jenny said nostalgically, "Kind and welcoming, it's a pity, I don't understand what's interesting about that country, fly over, and the result is ......"
Li Han sighed, remembering his aunt's kindness to him in previous years, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and curse a few words in his heart. Although we know that the chance of surviving the plane accident is very small, if the airline had reacted faster, maybe it would have been able to save a few, didn't it say that it fell into the sea?
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought this up to make you sad." Jenny said apologetically and changed the subject, "I still want to fry dumplings, I love this one the most." ”
They sat at a small table in the corner, with a glass window on one side against the wall, and the seats were U-shaped wrapped around the small solid wood dining table. Li Han sat against the wall, chatting and laughing with the two, and turning his head from time to time to look at the environment of the store.
Business looked good, and before six o'clock half of the tables had customers, and the other half had signs with reservations.
Chen Daofu saw that he was curious, so he explained: "In the UK, most restaurants need reservations, especially at dinner time, they are used to eating a sandwich or something at noon, and the main meal is in the evening. We came at five o'clock, so we had a seat, otherwise we might have to find another place. ”
Li Han nodded, and was about to say something, when he was suddenly startled by a scream, and then saw a woman not far in front of him holding her head on the table, and the people at the table patted him on the back at a loss, and the waiter had already gone over to inquire about the situation.
The patient is still "ah...... Ah......h The doctor said that it might be a nerve problem in the brain, but it was not enough to go under surgery, so he only prescribed me some analgesic ......" and he screamed in pain again before he finished speaking.
Li Han couldn't help but stand up and walked over: "I have a way to relieve your pain, do you want to try it?" Don't worry, I'm also a doctor, but I'm a Chinese medicine practitioner. ”
The patient was already in so much pain that he didn't have the strength to speak, so he only nodded slightly. Li Han put his hand into his pocket, took out his needle bag from the space, took out a silver shining needle, and pierced the patient's head before everyone could react.
As soon as the exclamation of the person next to him came out, the patient's head had been pierced with four long silver needles, but the patient didn't know what was going on: "What did you do?" She looked at Li Han curiously, and then at her friend who stared at her with wide eyes in horror, "My head doesn't hurt anymore." ”
"I gave you a few injections to relieve the pain, but this is only temporary, and it will be cured for a long time. Madam, have you ever seen a Chinese doctor? If you can, try acupuncture, it's good for you. ”
"Chinese medicine?" She looked at him curiously, "I haven't seen Chinese medicine, Western medicine can't help it, can those strange grasses of Chinese medicine cure me?" ”
"You can try acupuncture," Li Han emphasized, "that's what I'm doing for you now, it's a kind of physiotherapy, and that Dr. Chen and I are both Chinese medicine practitioners, and it's at 76 Witfield Street, if you want, you can try it tomorrow, I'm sure it will be good for you." ”
