Chapter 68 An Advance on the Salary!
“What?!”
In the Director’s office of the School of Chinese Medicine of the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine, Qi Kaiwen, who had just answered the phone, hung up the phone in shock.
“These eight universities have reacted so quickly and strongly!”
“How long has it been? All of them also unexpectedly started to carry out this apprentice plan!”
Feeling shocked, Qi Kaiwen also couldn’t help breaking into a cold sweat.
“Fortunately, I have agreed to carry out the apprentice plan immediately before the competition.”
“Otherwise, once the news is leaked in advance, with the response and the momentum of the eight universities, they will absolutely be preemptive.”
“By then, our University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine will really have made our own sacrifice to help others. And it will be hard to argue on that!”
“This Zhang Xinming really did me a big favor!”
Thinking of this, Qi Kaiwen couldn’t help laughing.
“In the last meeting, Zhang Xinming deceived me in order to advance the apprentice plan. But now, deceiving me is actually helping me instead!”
“In this case.”
“About the Apprentice Plan, the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine is the founder!”
“The first-class merit will definitely be mine!”
Such a good thing happened to him. Of course, he was happy.
But on the other side.
Zhang Xinming let out a long sigh, regretting very much.
What he regretted was that he actually helped Qi Kaiwen!
“Well, as the news spreads, every major university will know that the Apprentice Plan was put forward by a student and proposed by Qi Kaiwen on his own initiative.”
“As for me, Zhang Xinming, how many people can remember me?”
“What an unwise move!”
“What an unwise move!”
“Sh*t, I’m so unlucky!”
Zhang Xinming thought of it angrily.
Meanwhile that afternoon.
Universities of Chinese Medicine all over China had also received the news that the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine had started the apprentice plan.
Like the previous eight universities.
When the news spread, the Universities of Chinese Medicine all over the country were all shocked.
However.
Unlike the eight universities, they were not in a hurry to carry out the apprentice plan. Instead, they planned to observe first and wait for the nine universities, led by the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine, to succeed in the apprentice plan before officially launching it.
It was like others planted trees and they picked fruit!
If others planted well, everybody would plant.
If not, they would forget it.
...
“The youngest, this weekend is the National Day holiday. Do you have any plans?”
Asked Sun Hao after browsing all kinds of apprenticing information on the BBS.
There was no class in the afternoon, so the four of them all stayed in the dormitory.
“The National Day?”
Fang Qiu raised his head and found it really was after counting the time.
“This Sunday is October first, the National Day.”
“There will be a week-long holiday.”
“No plans for the time being.”
He thought for a moment and replied as he shook his head.
“If not, how about going on a trip with us?”
Sun Hao egged him on with a smirk.
But Fang Qiu suddenly thought of one thing and said inwardly, “Awful!”
“The weekend happens to be National Day. During the holidays of National Day, I can’t go to work.”
“If I can’t go to work, how will I have the nerve to get an advance on the salary?”
Thinking of this.
He hastily took out his mobile phone and called Shen Chun to ask if he could get an advance on the salary.
But he didn’t get through.
“Could he be seeing patients?”
A thought came to his mind.
Fang Qiu immediately ran out of the dormitory and headed for the hospital.
This made his three roommates very confused.
“What’s wrong with the youngest?”
“Never seen that!”
Fang Qiu came to the Department of Orthopedics in the First Affiliated Hospital.
He found that the Department of Orthopedic was full of patients. “Shen Chun is seeing patients as expected.”
When Shen Chun finished, he just went forward.
“Dr. Shen.”
Fang Qiu greeted him with a smile.
“What are you doing here?”
Shen Chun said with a smile as he saw Fang Qiu. “I just want to talk to you. Your idea is really wonderful! Unexpectedly, you could think of the Apprentice Plan! This is an idea that most people can’t think of!”
Fang Qiu just smiled modestly.
“What?!”
Cao Ze looked at Fang Qiu in shock from the side.
“The Apprentice Plan which has made a stir in the whole university was put forward by Fang Qiu???”
“It’s said in Campus BBS that there is a freshman making this suggestion, which turns out to be true!”
“And this student turns out to be Fang Qiu!”
He really couldn’t believe it.
“He not only has an awesome bonesetting ability.”
“He can also come up with such a brilliant idea.”
Cao Ze stared at Fang Qiu in a daze.
He let out a long sigh inwardly.
“I felt that I had been thinking highly of this boy, but now it seems that I had been looking down upon him!”
“But...”
Shen Chun sighed slightly and said with a bitter smile, “This idea is good, but once the apprentice plan is carried out, I will have more extra work. See how many patients do I have!”
“In the future, I will have to work while training apprentices, which means I won’t have free time.”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“This is an idea that benefits himself at the expense of others!”
Cao Ze had a lot of spoken criticism crazily at the side.
He was well aware that the Apprentice Plan was good, but not necessarily good for him.
“Because I have already been Mr. Shen Chun’s student.”
“Although I don’t need to fight with other students to be apprenticed, with the strength of Mr. Shen Chun, there will certainly be a lot of students coming to him. By then, won’t I be easily replaced since Mr. Shen Chun will train more apprentices?”
“See how malicious you are!”
“By the way, what brings you here?”
Asked Shen Chun curiously.
“Well...”
Fang Qiu said haltingly, “I just want to know if I can get an advance on my salary.”
“Why, are you short of money?”
Shen Chun was stunned as he heard that.
Fang Qiu nodded in response.
“Well, if you are short of money, take some of mine.”
Shen Chun said with a smile, “When you get your salary, just pay me back.”
“No.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “I can’t take your money. I don’t need to borrow it since I can get paid for my work. I just need to get an advance.”
“Are you sure?”
Shen Chun asked again.
Fang Qiu shook his head.
“Very principled!”
Shen Chun smiled and didn’t continue persuading him. Then he muttered to himself for a moment and said, “In this case, I’ll help you get an advance and I have a request. Can you come to work this Sunday, the National Day?”
After saying that, he explained.
“After all, it’s better to ask for an advance on salary after working for two weeks than for one week.”
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu thanked sincerely, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Shen Chun waved his hand with a smile and then issued Fang Qiu with an identifying paper. After that, he made a phone call to let the Director know and then told Fang Qiu that he could go to the Finance Department to get an advance.
Seeing the matter settled, Fang Qiu didn’t stay there anymore but stood up to leave.
“Remember to come to work on time!”
Shen Chun reminded him with a smile.
Fang Qiu nodded his head with a smile.
Fang Qiu left the Department of Orthopedics, went to the Finance Department with the identifying paper directly, and got the salary in advance.
With this 1,000 yuan, he could last two weeks.
But he also had to find a way to make money. After all, the next time he got a salary would be one month and a half later since this time’s advance.
“1,000 yuan for one month and a half?”
“It’s almost impossible unless I eat steamed buns every day.”
“But it also won’t work. I need to buy living things and school things!”
“Alas!”
Fang Qiu sighed deeply and left the hospital as he shook his head with emotions.
He walked back to school again.
When he just walked to an open space between the hospital and the university, suddenly seven or eight people ran over and surrounded him viciously.
Huh?
Fang Qiu coldly fixed his eyes on these seven or eight people who looked like students with good shapes.
“Are you Fang Qiu?”
Asked a young man, looking up and down at Fang Qiu.
“No.”
Said Fang Qiu decisively.
“No?”
The young man was dumbfounded. He hurriedly took out a mobile phone from the pocket and found a photograph from the album, comparing the person in the photo with Fang Qiu for a long time. Then he instantly flew into a rage. “Good boy, you are dishonest! I can tell immediately that you are not a good student!”
“Go with us!”
Hearing that.
Fang Qiu turned his head slightly, looking around the people that surrounding him. He asked smilingly, “Where to?”
“Don’t ask so much. You will know once you are there. Hurry up, otherwise, I will beat you.”
Snapped the leading young man.
The others gathered around him as they heard that.
“No, let’s go.”
Said Fang Qiu smilingly.
The group of people glanced at Fang Qiu with astonishment. “Why does this guy look calmer than us?”
“But you can only be calm now. I will pain you later!”
“This open space is not far away from the university and there are many people here, so we need to find another place to settle it.”
They were so familiar with such a thing.
Surrounded by a group of people, Fang Qiu walked lightly.
He lifted up his mouth.
It looked strange.
Just as the group of people came out of the open space and made a turn at the corner of an alley, something strange happened.
“Ouch!”
The young man who aggressively walked headmost suddenly lost his footing, falling on his face in front of all the people.
The group of people fell silent immediately.
Then they burst out laughing, which they wanted to suppress but failed to.
“This move is novel. Did you just learn it?”
“Having been exercising for so many years, you can still fall on the ground while walking?”
“Everyone makes mistakes. Don’t laugh at him... Hahahaha~”
The group of people started to joke about him with no good motive.
The young man got up with an embarrassed look. He brushed the dust off his clothes and cursed the other people, “Stop laughing. Aren’t I allowed to fall on the ground?”
“Allowed. Allowed. It’s just that I have never seen such a standard fall!”
“Yes! Yes!”
“No more nonsense. Be careful not to fall on the ground in front of me, otherwise, I will laugh at you to death!”
The young man said mercilessly and then waved his hands, “Go on!”
They moved on.
Barely had they set foot.
“Whir...”
Suddenly, a strong wind rose up.
It whipped a lot of sand.
“Sh*t!”
A scream rang out.
A young man suddenly squatted down, rubbing his eyes hard with both hands.
“What’s the matter? What’s the matter?”
The leading young man hastily stopped and asked.
The young man squatted down with his head down. He rubbed his eyes with one hand while waving another one and said, “It’s all right. Some sand was blew in my eyes by the wind.”
After that, he stood up.
As the others saw him, they wanted to laugh but dared not.
The young man’s eyes turned red as if he had got pinkeye.
The leading young man suppressed the laugh and said, “Since it’s all right, let’s go.”
He also watched around while saying that.
After making sure nobody around, he let out a sigh of relief.
They moved on.
Fang Qiu calmly sized up the alley.
It was very long and looked like 50 to 60 meters long.
There was a corner at the end of the alley.
It could be right out of sight of the people nearby.
It was a perfect place to beat people!
Fang Qiu smiled faintly.
Barely had they set foot.
Something strange happened again!
“Ouch!”
Another scream was heard.
It frightened the group of people.
The leading young man turned around at once to see what happened.
He saw the young man blocked behind Fang Qiu was holding his feet with a miserable look at the moment and his face twisted in pain.
“What’s the matter again?”
The young leader asked irritably.
“What’s wrong with this road?”
“I’ve got a cramp in my leg. You guys go first and don’t need to wait for me.”
The young man hurriedly pressed his feet against the wall and stretched his legs hard to restrain the cramp.
“I thought you wanted to escape!”
Said the young leader, “Hurry up!”
Just after that.
Another young man with short hair over there dropped his cigarette end away and then coughed, spitting.
But coincidentally.
The saliva, whipped by the strong wind, unexpectedly flew straight onto the young leader’s face.
“Pah!”
The saliva right fell on his cheek!
The people around were all dumbfounded.
The person who spat was also stunned.
Even the man who got cramp forgot the pain in his legs.
“Although they are more than a meter apart, the falling saliva could go up to his face.
“This coincidence. Tut tut!”
“Remarkable!”
