Chapter 807: Chapter 377: Battle of Wits with Ticket Scalpers, One Lamp Can Banish a Millennium of Darkness (Part 2)

"Give me the information for those two patients."

Li Li, upon hearing this, directly took out a note from the drawer.

On it were the names and ID numbers of the two patients.

It seemed she was well prepared.

"Not bad, you’re getting more thorough with your work."

Li Jingsheng praised her with a sentence.

Patient registration is all real-name based, how did these two patients’ ID information match the registered appointments?

There’s only one possibility, it indicates there’s an insider in the hospital.

Secretly reselling appointment slots.

Without internal manipulation, it’s impossible to complete the bait-and-switch to alter appointment information.

Li Jingsheng directly took a picture of the information on the note and sent it to Director Hua.

"Director, there are two more scalped appointments. These are the patients who bought those slots."

This kind of thing, I refuse to believe it doesn’t stop, how can it keep happening?

When Li Jingsheng gets stubborn, not even nine bulls can pull him back.

Seeing his patients already facing misfortune and then losing hundreds to scalpers infuriates him.

Other directors collude with scalpers, he can’t control that.

However, for his own patients, he absolutely won’t watch them get duped.

"Keep working, I’ll investigate this matter."

Director Hua replied with just a few short words.

Being the department director, there are many things he is actually powerless to address. He can manage his own department’s matters.

But the hospital registration issue involves Information Technology, outpatient department, billing department, and other departments—it’s beyond what he as an orthopedic department director can handle.

"Dr. Chen, among the five doctors under me, you’re the most experienced and the slickest. There are thirty appointment slots left, I trust you to ensure every single slot goes to a genuine patient."

"Understood!"

Dr. Chen seldom receives praise from Li Jingsheng. Now, praised twice, he feels as light as a feather.

He gladly accepted the task.

Li Jingsheng quickly dove into work, treating patients.

There’s no way he’d delay patient treatment just to fight scalpers.

The hustle continued straight until half past noon.

Efficiency was pretty good, and the students were quite helpful, performing their assistive tasks well.

In the morning, twenty-one patients were treated.

Including the six patients already treated by Ye Hui and others, a total of twenty-seven patients were treated in the morning.

Thirty-three slots remained for the afternoon.

As long as they work quickly, it’s estimated that they can handle everything by six o’clock.

Li Jingsheng headed to the cafeteria to eat.

Dr. Chen and others followed together.

"Dr. Li, with our registration process like this, won’t the IT department have opinions?"

Dr. Chen was somewhat concerned.

"Even if they have opinions, there’s no choice. I must find ways to protect my patients’ interests. It’s already hard enough for them to see me in the first place. And then to be scalped... how intolerable. As doctors, we must have a clear conscience, righteousness in our hearts."

Li Jingsheng was very resolute on this matter.

There’s no room for negotiation.

Rather offend people than allow this bad practice to continue.

With just thirty slots, there were already two scalped ones, and this was after he just consulted Director Hua a few days ago.

Normally, the scalpers would be even bolder.

No one knows exactly how many slots are resold each day.

Li Jingsheng knows very well that if this evil can’t be stopped, eventually his sixty slots might altogether fall to scalpers.

Patients finding him for treatment end up paying more than seeing a special appointment expert.

"I also despise those scalpers. Unfortunately, they’re too cunning. How about I pose as a patient and use bait tactics to expose the scalpers and then arrest them?"

Jin Yanyu, having the backing of Vice Dean Jin’s family, acts without much consideration.

"Catching the scalper who sells slots to patients is useless. Now scalpers have evolved. They control the reselling resources, hire others to sell slots to patients. Even if caught, the real mastermind behind wouldn’t be affected. They just hire someone else, continuing the reselling."

Li Jingsheng has been investigating and consulting others specifically to tackle scalpers.

It’s widely said that scalpers are hard to deal with now. Some have infiltrated into hospital high levels.

"My name is Zhong Hao, I’d like to discuss cooperation with you. If it’s convenient now, we can find a place to chat." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
