The content published in the "Nevis Herald" made the business of Oak Grove Medical Clinic, or to be precise, the Red House Branch of Oak Grove Medical Clinic, suddenly pick up.
What do people like most?
First, it is free or discounted, and secondly, it is free or discounted for a limited period, and the period may be very short!
Especially one like Oak Grove Medical Clinic!
Huge discount (basic fee of 3 gold coins, exemption of examination fee of 350 gold coins), huge discount (basic fee of 3 gold coins, exemption of examination fee + cesarean section fee, a total of 2,000 gold coins)!
There is a limited time limit (the caster cannot continue the discount indefinitely), and the time limit may be very short (you have to collect enough data to publish a paper within half a month, but after half a month, you may no longer have it)!
Anyone who has had the experience of grabbing eggs in a supermarket, or has seen relevant advertisements, will know how crowded the supermarket entrance can be in an instant on the morning when the discount day starts.
Rolling shutter doors can be squeezed through, customers can squeeze into fights at the door, elderly people can be squeezed down, and stampedes can occur!
If it weren't for the discount offered by Oak Grove Medical Clinic, which was only open to pregnant women, and those who were about to give birth, the door of the medical clinic would have been packed with people. Even so, after the newspaper published it, the number of inquiries and admissions also appeared.
A substantial increase.
After all, you can’t afford two thousand gold coins, or several hundred gold coins, but you can still afford three gold coins, or 20 gold coins, right?
Grete and the therapists at the medical clinic are at ease. Rich people are treated, and poor people are treated. Anyway, the requirement of 500 cases in half a month will not change. Moreover, the service level for patients will not change either.
of
As long as they are not large customers who pay in full, they can only receive treatment here by relying on Oak Forest's free bill offer. Paying users?
Tsk, those few coins are just enough for pocket change... If you don't want to learn a craft here, these three melons and two dates are really not that rare.
What Grete really values is the special customers who are attracted to Oak Grove Medical Clinic because of its increased reputation. For example, this one today...
"Mr. Carlos! Mr. Carlos! There is a woman at the door with a big belly. We can't understand her!"
The security guard on duty hurriedly came in to report. Gretel ignored the chores, and all these tasks were piled on Leon Carlos. A level 2 necromancer, a living director of the hospital...
Or the responsibilities of the assistant director of the hospital.
And there was no promotion, no salary increase. Except for the opportunity to undergo additional surgeries and a few casual suggestions from Grete, there was nothing.
Carlos is so happy. If you want to learn your skills, you should work more. The more comprehensive abilities you master, the more you can make yourself irreplaceable. Work harder and strive to become Mr. Master’s disciple!
Master Nordmark has only accepted apprentices so far, not formal disciples!
He quickened his pace and rushed to the door of the hospital, where he saw two strong and tall women standing in the middle of the hall. One was more nervous and closer to the door, while the other kept staring at the antlers on the wall, her body slightly arched, vaguely alert.
Just looking at their body shapes, postures, and bulging muscles, you can tell that these two people should be extraordinary warriors, and their levels are not low.
A man with dirty blond semi-long hair stuck to his cheeks. He had thick hands and big feet, his cheeks were flushed by the sea breeze, and he looked a little shrinking. Some palms on his abdomen were subconsciously protecting his belly;
She had long black hair, tied high into a ponytail, and looked neat and tidy. Her abdomen was swollen, and she looked like she was seven or eight months pregnant, but her sword-holding posture was still fierce.
Led by Bernard, several barbarian guards subconsciously surrounded her. Except for Bernard, the other barbarians were on guard with nervousness. They seemed unable to defeat her...
What level are these two people at? The one with blond hair seems to be at a low level, level five? Level six? The one with black hair seems to be higher, level seven? Or even level eight?
These two were giving birth here and struggled with pain. Can the midwives hold them down?
If it gets to the point where a cesarean section is needed, can the husband perform the surgery? Or will they have to undergo a dark-gold skull surgery? Are they willing to accept being operated on by a skull?
Carlos was thinking in confusion, threw himself a [Language Proficient], stepped forward and bowed slightly:
"Ladies, please sit down in the clinic. Let's register your name and basic information."
“@#￥%&*……”
With a click, a bunch of foreign languages were answered. Sure enough, it was not the lingua franca of the Kingdom of Kent, nor even the lingua franca of the mainland...
I really can't stand it without spells. I have to add the spell casting fee of [Language Proficiency] to the charged items, or the cost of temporarily hiring a translator, huh.
He secretly made a note in his mind and invited them into the consulting room. The two ladies looked at each other, and the black-haired lady calmly took a step back and raised her hand slightly:
"She came first. Let her go in first."
The blonde female warrior took a step back slightly, and at the urging of the other party, she cautiously entered. Carlos reminded her to close the door and whispered:
"Name?"
"Melissa. Melissa Hemprey."
She adjusted her black veil and pretended to be a widow in order to respond to the inquiry. Unexpectedly, Carlos didn't care about this and just asked the questions line by line according to the items on the form:
"Where are you from? Age? Occupation? Level?"
"New...New World. 28 years old, professional...just came here, haven't found a job yet..."
"Ma'am, we are asking about your extraordinary level so that we can provide you with appropriate medical care." Carlos raised his head and smiled comfortingly at her:
"Looking at your appearance, you should be a warrior?"
"Yes, warrior, level 5 warrior." Melissa nodded repeatedly and tightened her skirt uneasily.
In the purse under her skirt was the savings she had accumulated over the years, 350 gold coins. According to the newspaper, it should be enough to give birth at Oak Grove Hospital...
The premise is that there is a discount. If you cannot apply for free treatment, this amount of money is not enough to cover a fraction of the cost of cesarean section.
And can these magical fees and surgery fees be waived? The newspaper said that the mage's research experiment will only last for half a month. After half a month, no one knows...
"How long have you been pregnant?"
"Six months... Sir, if I really need an cesarean section when I give birth, can I get a credit first?" She asked eagerly:
"I can work in the oak forest to pay off my debts...I just saw that there are no female escorts here. I think you might need..."
According to Mr.'s character, he would probably be able to perform an autopsy on her for free... provided that he could do it. Carlos complained silently and comforted her with a pleasant expression:
"Madam, don't worry. You can register the relevant information first, do a check-up, and I will apply for you. Maybe there will be good news? Don't worry, stress will also hurt the child..."
After registering her name and address, and agreeing to come to the medical clinic tomorrow to wait for news, Melissa opened the door and went out. The black-haired woman held a long sword and sat outside the consulting room with her eyes closed for a long time. Then she strode inside and sat down opposite Carlos.
:
"Name?"
"Anna."
"Where does it come from? Occupation? Level?"
"Level 7 warrior."
"How many months are you pregnant?"
"Seven...seven and a half months."
Carlos lowered his head and brushed the records. Hearing this sentence, he raised his head slightly:
"Seven and a half months? Madam, you can check at the medical office. If you need to give birth as soon as possible, we will arrange for you to move in immediately. If the pregnancy is in good condition, it is recommended that you wait until natural delivery."
"What if I want to live here until I give birth?"
"This..." Carlos stopped writing and looked at the lady's appearance and clothing vaguely. Her appearance was not too beautiful, but she had an awe-inspiring heroic spirit;
Her skin is not considered delicate, and traces of Northland frost can be clearly seen. However, with such training intensity, such wind and snow, the delicateness of her skin is obviously beyond the normal range;
He is wrapped in a thick tweed jacket, and his long hair is tied up with a rope. He looks low-key and simple, but the scabbard of the long sword in his hand comes from a high-level Warcraft;
If you don’t know the language of the Kingdom of Kent, but you can talk to him without any problems, you can either at least understand him, or you have a magic weapon with a constant [Language Proficiency]. The former means a good education, and the latter means that you are beyond the professional level.
economic capacity.
In short, this dark-haired lady is richer than she looks, very rich.
"Ma'am, I personally don't recommend living here all the time..." Carlos replied thoughtfully:
"Our accommodation here is limited. There are three people per room in the ordinary ward, and there is only one room in the high-end ward. Once you move in, you are not allowed to leave the medical center unless necessary, and there is no place for daily martial arts practice. Moreover, you need to
100 gold coins a day..."
With a snap, a piece of standard magic crystal was slapped in front of the face. The White Tower's certificate of deposit is specially issued for those customers who are not magicians and cannot obtain the mage badge. In Nevis and other places where parliamentary magic towers are set up,
It can be common.
...That's fine, rich people can do whatever they want.
Anyway, the VIP ward in the red house is always full of people. It costs 100 gold coins a day, food is not included, and all examination fees are paid by yourself. If you are a high-quality customer like this, you can stay here if you like it.
"Madam, I must make a statement to you. Due to the composition of medical casters, some of your examinations and treatments will be performed by necromancers or other male casters."
Carlos added cautiously. Of course, there are discounts for big customers:
"...If you are concerned, you can also ask and we will try our best to arrange other magicians or priests to treat you..."
The black-haired female warrior frowned slightly. Soon, her brows relaxed again:
"It's okay. I was just going to see what Oak Grove Medical Clinic was like."
Carlos called a necromancer over and asked him to accompany Ms. Anna to go through the admission procedures, conduct various examinations, and go to the VIP ward to choose a room to stay in. After all the procedures were completed and the ward door was closed, Anna carefully checked the surrounding area.
