Chapter 30

After that, he dismissed the others and had Li Hua, the manager of the pet hospital, stay behind.

"Mr. Su, is there anything you need me to do?" Li Hua said respectfully, knowing that from now on, Su Zhe would be their direct superior.

"Earlier, I said not to call me Mr. Su anymore; it sounds strange. Just call me by my name. I didn't keep you here for anything special; I just wanted you to give me a tour of the hospital."

Li Hua is already in his thirties, so calling Su Zhe "brother" doesn't sound right, so he decided to call Su Zhe by his name directly.

He took Su Zhe on a tour of the pet hospital, giving him a detailed introduction. Finally, he explained the business situation of the pet hospital and showed Su Zhe the financial statements from the past.

Currently, the pet hospital not only treats pets but also offers pet grooming services. The monthly revenue is around 300,000 yuan. Since the pet hospital owns the storefront, there's no need to pay rent, which saves a significant amount of money. After deducting the hospital's expenses and salaries, the monthly net profit is about 100,000 yuan.

Although the pet hospital used to sell pets, since Li Xin decided to transfer the hospital, no new pets have been acquired. Some of the existing pets were sold, and others were resold to other pet stores. Therefore, the pet hospital no longer operates as a pet store.

Su Zhe was quite satisfied with the pet hospital's profitability.

He instructed Li Hua to announce the temporary closure of the pet hospital starting from the next day, mainly to change the hospital's name. If the name of Li Xin's pet hospital were something else, Su Zhe wouldn't have changed it, as the name had been used for three years and had some recognition in the area. Changing the name would inevitably affect the business.

However, since Li Xin named the hospital after himself, Su Zhe had to change it. Seeing "Li Xin's Pet Hospital" always made him feel like the hospital didn't belong to him, so he had to change the name. After some thought, he decided to name the hospital "Su Pet Home."

Additionally, Su Zhe asked Li Hua to notify the regular customers of the pet hospital about the changes, so they could update their membership cards if needed. Although the pet hospital had a new owner, the membership cards would still be valid, as agreed upon by Li Xin and Su Zhe. He also wanted to change the hospital's promotional materials and business cards.

Although the pet hospital was temporarily closed to the public, the staff still had to come to work, as there were still sick pets that needed care.

After giving these instructions, Su Zhe let Li Hua get back to his work and then toured the pet hospital alone before leaving.

Regarding Li Hua's previous mention that the pet hospital no longer sold pets, Su Zhe only said he would observe for a while before making a decision.

Su Zhe naturally intended to continue the pet sales business. However, he hadn't decided whether to acquire pets from outside or use his points to exchange for pets to sell. He hoped to exchange all the pets himself, but since his current points were zero, he had to put it on hold for now.

Over the next few days, Su Zhe would visit the pet hospital to observe, spending about two to three hours each day.

In the eyes of the staff, Su Zhe was a person who loved pets, as he spent most of his time with the animals and was very casual. No one had ever seen him lose his temper. When he was alone with someone, he even seemed a bit shy.

In a short time, Su Zhe became the ideal partner in the eyes of the female staff at the pet hospital.

Su Zhe didn't have the domineering presence of a successful person or the arrogance of a rich kid. He was easy-going and the owner of the pet hospital. Most importantly, he was handsome and tall at 183 cm.

These qualities undoubtedly met the criteria for a rich and handsome man, but the fact that Su Zhe was a self-made man rather than a second-generation rich kid made him even more appealing.

Additionally, the staff noticed that the pets were recovering much faster recently, although no one paid much attention to it.

The reason for the pets' rapid recovery was, of course, due to Su Zhe. His main purpose for visiting the pet hospital each day was to find opportunities to treat the animals. While pretending to play with the pets, he would secretly use his divine power to heal them when no one was looking.

He treated larger animals, such as cats and dogs. The larger the animal, the more divine power was needed. For example, a small illness in a pet the size of a Teddy bear would require several points of divine power. Unlike a Betta fish, which only needed one point of divine power to be saved from near death. The more divine power used, the more points he would earn.

However, Su Zhe didn't dare to heal the pets completely at once, as it would easily arouse suspicion. For each pet, he used only a little divine power each time.

This helped the pets, but the effects were not too noticeable, avoiding drawing attention.

Each day, Su Zhe could earn about 50 points from the pet hospital. After five days, most of the pets had recovered and were taken home by their owners.

At this point, the new sign for the pet hospital was not yet complete, and there was nothing much to do. Su Zhe decided to have Li Hua arrange for a few people to take turns on duty, while the others could take a break.

With no pets left to treat, Su Zhe didn't visit the pet hospital. Over the five days, he earned a total of 260 points from the pet hospital. Once the hospital reopened, new pets would be brought in, and he could earn more points.

The ability to earn points from the pet hospital was the main reason Su Zhe opened it. Making money was not as important to him; even if it didn't make money, he would continue to run it.

The ginseng seedlings that Su Zhe planted in the backyard were watered three times a day, with 10 points of divine power added to the water each time. Although the divine power was absorbed by over a hundred seedlings, the effect was not very noticeable, but each seedling had grown a three-leaf compound leaf.

Actually, the climate and environment of Yan Yun City were not suitable for ginseng growth, but Su Zhe, a novice, managed to successfully grow them using his divine power.
