However, the dean still revealed the purpose of his trip.
"In order to boost economic recovery, promote a rebound in prices from their low levels, and keep prices at a reasonable level, daily consumer goods are about to experience another round of price increases. Things are going to be tough."
"Uh-huh."
Xiaoqin nodded expectantly. Rising prices? To stimulate consumption? Has the dean finally decided to give her a raise?!
"Therefore, in the next few years, ordinary people will definitely be reluctant to eat or dress well, let alone spend money on high-cost things like seeing a doctor at our hospital. Considering this, I plan to deduct five gold coins from your salary each month for hospital subsidies."
Wang Defa's oil?!
why?
()
Xiaoqin felt her mind was a bit of a mess and needed to sort it out.
Are price increases intended to revive the economy?
Shouldn't you raise my salary along with the prices you're raising?
That way everyone can make a profit!
To stimulate consumption?
You're just raising prices without raising wages, how are you supposed to stimulate consumption?
Xiaoqin wasn't an economics expert, and although she couldn't understand the above operation, she was still greatly shocked.
Seeing Xiaoqin's stunned expression, the dean couldn't help but frown.
"What's with that look? Did I say something wrong? Just tell me, won't fewer people come to see the doctor in the future? Won't that affect our revenue? If our income drops, how will we have the money to pay salaries?"
Xiaoqin nodded. There was no doubt about that. Without a raise, people would have a hard time even eating, let alone going to the doctor.
Minor illnesses you have to bear on your own, major illnesses you can die from.
"But, but you didn't give me a raise when the hospital was making money before? You just said yourself that I'm on a fixed salary, so why are you deducting it from my paycheck?"
The dean sighed helplessly, indicating that he didn't want to either.
"Sigh, what can I do? It's all because our neighboring city of Lent almost went bankrupt. Overnight, they lost hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. The Romia Cathedral, known as Lent's treasury, was burned to the ground. Even their spiritual pillar, the priest, mysteriously disappeared. They say he was taken away by some God, but that's pure nonsense!"
After a pause, the dean continued.
"However, this is also the governor's idea. The pressure on Lent City needs to be shared among the other cities around us. There's nothing we can do about it."
Xiaoqin was puffed up with anger.
She also knew about the city of Lunt, and had even heard that the corrupt priest had embezzled most of the city's wealth.
how?
He ate all the money when he was making it, but now that he's gone, everyone has to share the burden of paying it back?
Privatize profits, make debt repayment accessible to everyone?
I didn't see a single word of their profits when they were making money.
Now that we've lost money, why should I, a poor nurse who works overtime to the point of exhaustion, have to foot the bill?
It's true that everyone has a responsibility for the rise and fall of the nation, and everyone has to bear the burden of their own fate.
Seeing Xiaoqin's resigned expression, the hospital director left the nurses' duty room with satisfaction.
Things went as smoothly as he had expected. This little nurse was indeed an honest person who was easy to exploit!
Until the dean left.
Xiao Ya knocked on the door of the duty room.
the other side.
Xiaoqin, who was with Jiang Xiao, was also summoned by the dean for a private meeting.
However, she seemed completely unconcerned about the economic downturn or anything like that.
What are you afraid of?
I've long since looked down on the meager salary from that stingy dean.
Dr. Qin Shou is right, as long as we follow Brother Fu, everything will be fine.
A tiny bit of it leaking from under her fingernail would be enough for her to live on for a lifetime.
Once she's saved enough for retirement, she'll quit her job and enjoy her life!
As for this wronged nurse, whoever wants to do it can do it!
It would be best to let this stingy dean do it himself!
Regarding the world-building, please don't dwell too much on it. Just think of it as one main world, and the rest are all mirror worlds (parallel worlds). Simply put, different people have different fates, and the supernatural tales in multiplayer dungeons are the main world.
Chapter 248 The Bug in Talent
Xiaoqin is still sulking about the pay cut.
Indeed, not only was the already low salary reduced by five gold coins, but prices outside also went up.
With this rise and fall, her life will definitely become even more difficult and frugal.
"Little Sprout? What brings you here? Didn't I tell you last night that a girl like you with a brain problem needs to rest more and not run around?"
em
how to say.
Xiaoya felt as if she had been insulted.
"By the way, Sister Xiaoqin, do you know if that little boy named Jixiang has a grandfather?"
"Jixiang? His grandfather?"
Xiaoqin looked bewildered. After thinking for a moment, she nodded, then decisively shook her head.
"I know. Dr. Qin checked his family information when he was hospitalized. His grandfather was there, but he had been dead for many years."
What?
Xiaoya's body stiffened instantly.
died? !
Who is that old man, Mr. Sun, who shares a hospital room with me?
hiss?
Could he be a fake?
its not right!
I have read Old Sun's memories, and his grandson and Jixiang look exactly alike!
Xiaoya couldn't believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world!
After taking a moment to think of what to say, Xiaoya spoke to the nurse.
"Here's the thing, today I saw that little boy, Jixiang, in the hallway, and I told Old Sun what he looked like. He exclaimed that Jixiang looks exactly like his grandson. What's going on?"
Xiaoya thought the nurse would be surprised to hear this, but to her surprise, the nurse had an expression that said, "I knew it."
"Oh dear, you mean Old Sun, that stroke patient? Sigh, he sees everyone as his grandson. He happened to see Little Jixiang once before and insisted that he was his grandson. Stroke, well, there's nothing wrong with that, it's understandable."
what?
Little Sprout was completely stunned.
Xiaoqin continued speaking.
“Think about it carefully. Old Sun has been paralyzed in the hospital all by himself for more than ten years. If he had a grandson, he would have seen him before he was hospitalized, right? So his grandson must be at least a teenager now.”
I lost it!
They've found him dead!
I think I understand!
A thunderbolt seemed to flash through Xiaoya's mind.
Old Sun has been paralyzed in the hospital for over ten years?!
Little Sprout pounded her head.
Damn it, I'm such an idiot!
How could you not see such an obvious flaw?
wipe!
I'm such an idiot!
Let's not even mention that the old man was paralyzed in the hospital for more than ten years.
Even if it's based on the memories I read, it doesn't make sense.
Because in Old Sun's memory, "Jixiang" was two or three years old.
