"What's the price?"
"Make your own price."
"What do you mean I set the price myself? When you negotiate with a customer, don't you always agree on the price first?"
"No. 399 Bin Road, I'll send you the specific address, that's it."
After saying that, Ethan hung up the phone.
Chen Zhao had no choice but to call Vincent and send him to No. 399 Bin Road.
Finally, when he arrived at the door of No. 399 Bin Road, Chen Zhao looked up and saw the orphanage!
Chen Zhao rubbed his forehead. It seemed that this business was no longer profitable.
How much can the hospital charge for a place like this
Even if they offered a high price, Chen Zhao would not dare to ask for it. The money is too hot to hold on to...
The iron gate of the orphanage was not closed. It seemed to be broken and had not been repaired for a long time.
Chen Zhao waited for a moment, and an old woman dressed in plain clothes came out. When she saw Chen Zhao, she came forward.
"Hello, are you a doctor?"
"Yes, I am a doctor, who needs treatment?"
"I am the director of the orphanage, come with me."
The orphanage is quite large and has some play facilities for children, but they all look old.
There was no one to clean up the peeling paint slides, rusty seesaws, and fallen leaves everywhere.
Looking up in the direction of the building, you can see young faces in the window.
The environment of the orphanage is slightly depressing. The main building is a four-story building that looks like it was built in the last century. The walls are dark gray and the stones in some corners are weathered.
Entering the main building, the corridor is also very dark. The light transmittance of this architectural pattern is poor, and there are no lights on. Although it is not difficult to see the road clearly, it still makes people feel uncomfortable.
Children who grow up in such an environment may not have much better mental health in the future.
Both sides of the corridor on the first floor look like workshops, with children inside making cards.
"Dean, what are these children doing?"
"Christmas cards, Christmas is coming, children will take these cards on the road and pray to sell them, each card is one dollar." The dean replied as he walked.
"Are the funds of the orphanage very tight?"
"The government gives the orphanage about US$50,000 every year, and with donations from all walks of life, it can reach US$200,000."
"Two hundred thousand dollars seems a lot?"
"There are four hundred children in the orphanage. On average, the cost of one child per year is no more than five hundred US dollars. Do you think it is still more?" The director's answer was indifferent, but there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Are there so many children here?"
"In fact, we even owe the electricity bill to the power company. They once sent people to warn me that if we don't pay the electricity bill, they will turn off our power supply. Two volunteers and I once went to the power company to threaten them if they dared to Pull the plug and I will ruin their reputation."
"Uh..." Chen Zhao didn't know what to say.
Although the dean's behavior was a bit blackmail, she was helpless.
"Are the children here sick?" Chen Zhao asked.
"No, they are volunteers." The dean replied.
The dean took Chen Zhao to a room at the back, where a young man was lying on the bed. There were a lot of bloody tissues in the trash can next to him.
There was a crying girl next to her, who looked about eleven or twelve years old.
Chen Zhao immediately stepped forward, and the young man was stabbed in the abdomen.
"How did it get hurt?" Chen Zhao asked.
"It was me... I hurt Teacher Kai Rui. Doctor, please save Teacher Kai Rui."
"Don't worry, he won't die." Chen Zhao checked the injuries and found that they were mainly skin injuries and blood loss, but no internal organs were injured.
The wound needed anti-inflammation, so Chen Zhao gave him anti-inflammatory medicine first.
"Dude, are you still conscious?"
"Yes." Kerry nodded. Although he was injured, he was not too weak and his consciousness was very clear: "I'm okay..."
Then he turned to look at the girl: "Cheryl, I don't blame you, don't cry."
This man looks very handsome. Even from a man's perspective, he is one of those overly handsome men.
So this girl probably fell in love with her overly handsome teacher. Chen Zhao wondered in his mind whether it was this girl who confessed to the teacher, but was rejected, and then stabbed the teacher because of love.
After completing the treatment and bandaging the wound, Chen Zhao said: "Don't touch water, do strenuous exercise, and eat irritating food for three days. Also, keep this bottle of anti-inflammatory medicine. Take two pills after each meal. After three days, You can remove the gauze."
"Okay, thank you, how much should I pay you?"
"Kerry, I'll pay. After all, you were injured here." The dean said.
"No need." Chen Zhao packed up his tools and said, "Just think of it as my free treatment."
"That's not good."
Chen Zhao picked up the toolbox and said, "This is my business card. If you need anything, you can call me."
At this time, the girl ran over to Chen Zhao: "Well... although you are not as handsome as Teacher Kai Rui, you are a good person."
Holy shit, what the hell is this
Is this praising me or hurting me
I don't want such praise. Chen Zhao's face looked a little ugly.
"Ma'am, it's time for me to go."
"Thank you, young man, and may the Lord bless you."
Chen Zhao doesn't like it here because the atmosphere here is too depressing.
Chen Zhao almost ran away from here.
…
When we got home, it was still dark, around four o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Zhao saw police cars passing by on the road in front, with five police cars in front and behind.
"What happened in the small town? Why are so many police coming?" Chen Zhao stood on the roadside and muttered to himself.
At this time, a police car stopped in front of Chen Zhao, and Leonardo's head stuck out of the car window.
"Hi Chen."
"Leon, what happened in the town?"
"Dead people."
"Oh, how did you die?"
"Hang yourself."
“Then we don’t need so many police officers, right?”
"He was a fugitive. He was hiding in a small town and rented a house. Today the landlord came to collect the rent and found that man dead in the house."
"Then I won't delay your work."
"I don't have anything to do anyway, how about we go have a drink on the roadside?" Leonardo asked.
"Are you sure it won't delay your work?"
"I'm only responsible for patrolling. It's not my turn to intervene in solving crimes. The crime team is in charge."
Chen Zhao got into Leonardo's car and sat down at an open-air restaurant not far from the crime scene.
"Chen, where is your big dog Wanda?"
"With its mother."
"Miss Greene?"
"No." Chen Zhao shook his head: "Ge Lin and I are not boyfriend and girlfriend... It's the woman you brought to make trouble last time, Fali, she is now my roommate."
"What? What happened in the meantime?"
