Chapter 45 Employment

"Thank you very much. You know that I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Without you, I might be Jennifer today. She is also very strong, but she is not as lucky as me and does not have a good dance partner!"

"It's nothing, you're not bad either!" Zhen Fan asked Brenda to sit down and gave her a can of soda, "Prepare well for the final, I believe you will have good grades!"

Brenda took the soda, sat cross-legged on the sofa, took a sip, looked at Zhen Fan and smiled: "I have delayed you a lot these days, right? I heard that your clinic is about to open, what do I need to do for you?" ?”

"When you are sick, I think I need you!"

Zhen Fan made a joke.

"How is it? Victory, do you have a lot to say?"

"No, I just want to chat with you!" Brenda put down the soda, then moved towards the place where Zhen Fan was sitting, "What if...if I fall in love with you, what should I do?"

"This... I will wait for you to grow up!" Zhen Fan looked at her with a smile.

Brenda felt discouraged.

"I'm still counting on you to kiss me, you know? The judges went to find me, and I hurried back when it was over, but I didn't expect you to leave first!" Brenda said in a resentful tone.

"What a pity!" Zhen Fan shrugged, "It's better to save this kiss until you win the state championship, but the interest will be more expensive!"

"as you wish!"

Brenda laughed, then stood up.

"I have to go, remember—"

Brenda pointed at Zhen Fan and opened the door.

"Of course, I remember that kiss."

"No, when I'm sick, I'll go to you! Haha!" Brenda laughed loudly for her own little trick, and then gently closed the door.

Zhen Fan touched his forehead, took out his mobile phone and looked at it, he was still thinking about holding a small reception to celebrate the opening of his clinic, but he couldn't think of those people to invite, after all, he had nothing here acquaintance. After thinking about it, he picked up the phone and called Kelly.

"What's the matter?" Kelly could tell that she was very happy.

Zhen Fan thought about it for a while, and then said: "I don't know if the clinic needs to hold a reception, it's a small one, you know I'm not very familiar with these, maybe you have experienced it, I think..."

"Ha!" Kelly laughed on the phone, "If your clinic is big enough or you have enough friends, you can consider it, but... I suggest you hold a family-style celebration, maybe I can Find some friends for you, you know, the more people there are, the more customers you will have in the future!"

"That's a good suggestion, I'll think about it!"

Zhen Fan also felt that Kelly's idea was very good. He was not familiar with the place where he was born in the United States, so he could only rely on this small reception to attract customers.

The decoration of the clinic cost nearly 10,000 U.S. dollars, which can be said to be quite extravagant. Adding some equipment and medicines, especially Chinese herbal medicines, it cost Zhen Fan nearly 40,000 U.S. dollars.

Since Americans don't know how to fry Chinese medicine, Zhen Fan also plans to hire a Chinese assistant to take charge of this matter. So Zhen Fan called Lao Mo in Chinatown the next night. Hearing that Zhen Fan wanted to hire a Chinese medicine assistant, he enthusiastically introduced five people to Zhen Fan.

It is not easy for Chinese to find a good job in the United States.

The monthly salary of 3,800 US dollars promised by Zhen Fan is quite attractive. So the next morning, all five people came, three young people and two middle-aged people.

The interview was conducted in Zhen Fan's newly renovated consulting room. Two of the three young people came to the United States recently. They didn't want to wash dishes and wanted to find a decent job, but they were not very familiar with Chinese medicine, and they were quickly eliminated. Although another young man has a background in Chinese medicine, his visa is only valid for one year, so he can only let it go with regret. One of the two middle-aged men used to be a drug dealer, but he went bankrupt, did not do well, and was relatively smooth. The other is a doctor in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital in China, and he is more honest, which is what Zhen Fan values.

"Doctor Tang, hello, we will be colleagues from now on!" Zhen Fan sent the other four people away, and warmly entertained the domestic sitting doctor.

"I'm kidding, I don't dare to call him a doctor now." The doctor's surname is Tang, Tang Shaoyang, from Hunan. It is said that the name is based on the place name. Such naming is relatively common in China.

"You are an experienced person, I can rest assured that the work will be entrusted to you." Zhen Fan smiled and poured him a glass of water. He originally wanted to ask why he, a domestic doctor, didn't do a good job and came to the United States. It’s so bad, but after thinking about it, let’s forget it. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.

The two chatted one after another, talking about the current situation of Chinese medicine in China, and also about the situation of Chinese medicine in the United States. And Zhen Fan's theory of Chinese medicine is very profound, and the two of them admired each other very much when they chatted.

Although this is the reason why Tang Shaoyang wanted to deliberately show his skills in front of the new boss, but Zhen Fan did it at his fingertips, seemed more casual, and his thoughts were also unconstrained, which made Tang Shaoyang sometimes unable to keep up.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhen Fan invited Tang Shaoyang to his home for a Chinese-style lunch, but Tang Shaoyang was a little cautious and refused repeatedly.

When Zhen Fan thought about it, Tang Shaoyang's thinking was normal, so he stopped forcing it. The two agreed to start work tomorrow and sign an employment contract. Zhen Fan called lawyer Charles Carter and agreed that he would come over tomorrow morning and sort out two employment contracts by the way, one for Tang Shaoyang and one for Tang Shaoyang. Give yourself the receptionist.

Charles fully agreed, asked Zhen Fan to say his request, etc., and then guaranteed that he would take care of everything, as long as both parties signed. It is a fool who has money but does not make money. This is the maxim that lawyers believe in.

As for the front desk of the clinic, although Zooey wanted this position very much, she hadn't graduated yet, so she simply didn't have time to do it well.

The first thing Zhen Fan did after returning home was to post a recruitment advertisement on the Internet. Of course, the salary was the same as Tang Shaoyang. After finishing all this work, Zhen Fan saw that it was getting late, and was thinking about making dinner when there was a knock on the door.

"Zoe?"

Zhen Fan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Zoe to come up at this time.

"Zhen, there is good news!"

As soon as the door opened, Zooey rushed over and hugged Zhen Fan tightly.

"I have good news, do you want to hear it?"

Zhen Fan patted Zooey on the back.

"I'd love to hear it, but is this how we talk?"

Zhen Fan helplessly opened his hand and shrugged his shoulders.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I'm a little excited!" Zooey let go of Zhen Fan, who let her in, sat on the sofa, and brought her a cup of tea.

"Eaten dinner yet?"

"Is there any Chinese food you cook?" Zooey exclaimed in surprise, and then scanned the dining table with her eyes. It was obvious that she didn't find anything she wanted.

"I'm about to do it, and you're just in time!" Zhen Fan smiled and stood up, "Don't you have good news to tell? I'm listening!"

"Well, I've applied to the school for an internship, and now I've passed it, which means I can find a job I love for an internship, no, your clinic just opened, and I caught up, which is not good news Is it?" Zoe said with some complacency.

"It's really good news for you, but I just posted a job advertisement on the Internet!" Zhen Fan immediately became frowning when he heard this.

"Then take it down!" Zooey replied simply.

Zhen Fan thought about it, too, a familiar person is always more reassuring than a stranger. So he went online again and removed the recruitment notice. Although it also paid a compensation for the website.

"Sit down, I'm going to cook!" After Zhen Fan finished his work, he let Zooey go to the kitchen to get busy. But suddenly there was an extra mouth, and I didn't plan to start a new stove. A pot of potatoes and beef would do.

"May I help you?"

Zoe stuck her head into the kitchen.

"Just help me eat these beef and potatoes!"

"Ha, that's really--that's great!" Zooey exaggeratedly opened her mouth, laughed, and then watched Zhen Fan bring over a pot of stewed potatoes with beef.

"Very fragrant, the taste must be very good!"

Zoe came to a conclusion directly, and it turned out that this conclusion was incomparably correct. It was delicious as always, and it filled her stomach as always.

"I feel a bit like Bota (the fat woman in the American TV series "A Good Guy and Three Gangs"), of course if I can eat such delicious food every day!"

Zooey was half lying on the sofa, expressing her emotions.

Zhen Fan didn't know who Bota was, but he definitely didn't have a good image. He looked at Zooey's sad eyes with a smile, and nodded.

"I don't want that dignity from my receptionist, it will reduce my customers and you will be fired!"

"Well, I'm just talking!" Zooey quickly surrendered.

"You go to my clinic tomorrow to sign an employment contract, then you will be my official employee!"

"Yes, I will go early tomorrow." Zooey smiled, "But by the way, how much is my salary?"

"On a monthly basis, your salary is 3,800 US dollars. Of course, I will buy various insurances for you. This is extra!" Zhen Fan said to her seriously.

"Okay, it's not bad!" Zooey's family is not short of money, and her father owns a supermarket.

"Well, I may hold a small family-style reception the day after tomorrow. You are welcome to attend, as well as your parents. I hope your whole family will come!"

"No problem!" Zooey agreed.

It was dark outside, and Zooey had no intention of leaving. Zhen Fan asked, "Did you come by car? If not, would you like me to call you a taxi?"

Zooey glared at Zhen Fan.

"You are not a gentleman! But today is almost the same, see you later! Boss!"

Zhen Fan was taken aback for a moment, then realized that he couldn't help laughing.

"Goodbye, Zooey, drive carefully!"

Zooey turned around and smiled outside the house: "I thought I was going out from my own home now."

"What do you mean?" Zhen Fan didn't respond.

"Your tone is just like my dad!" Zooey smiled, turned around, got into her car, and waved to Zhen Fan. He disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.
