"Your Highness, people's livelihood is important, but medical care is also very important to the people! Every year, many people die of illness, leaving endless pain to their families!"
"There are many young people among them. They died in their twenties and thirties due to lack of timely treatment. It is a pity!"
"If all the doctors in Da Qin can improve their medical skills, countless lives can be saved!"
"Isn't the imperial court always encouraging births and stimulating population growth? In my opinion, just increasing the newborn population is treating the symptoms but not the root cause...!"
Chunyu Yi had always been a man of few words. Since arriving at Bieyuan, apart from occasionally discussing medical skills with Ying Feiyu, he would treat the soldiers or hide in the house to study medical skills, and not interact with others at all.
Today I said a lot for the first time!
Even Ying Feiyu was surprised!
"Treating the symptoms but not the root cause? How can I say this?"
Ying Feiyu looked at him with interest, wanting to hear what he said next.
"Your Highness, think about it, if you encourage childbirth, the additional population will be newborns. It will take more than ten years for them to grow into young and strong laborers, and then they can go to work, produce, and contribute to the Qin Dynasty!"
"Instead of doing this, it is better to improve medical conditions and reduce the mortality rate of the people. In this way, the deaths of hundreds of thousands of young and strong people can be reduced every year. Isn't this more cost-effective than stimulating people to have children?"
"In order to encourage people to have children, the imperial court provides various welfare policies and certain subsidies. If part of the money is spent on medical care to improve the medical level, I believe the population will increase even faster than it is now!"
Chun Yuyi said a lot of words in one breath, saying everything he had been thinking during this period.
"Well! Reducing the case fatality rate is equivalent to increasing the population!"
Ying Feiyu nodded slightly, agreeing with his statement.
He had thought about this before, but there were no suitable talents in the medical field!
Xia Wuji's medical skills were pretty good in the palace, but he was too old, and he only focused on Ying Zheng and had no plans to reform medical care!
Since he doesn't have this intention, even if Ying Feiyu forces the task to him, he won't do well!
On the other hand, Chunyu Yi is different.
He is passionate about medical skills, is very serious and studious, and has a benevolent heart. He also puts forward ideas for improving medical standards!
Coupled with the observation of him during this period, Ying Feiyu also felt that he was indeed a medical talent!
"Yes, that's the truth! Reducing the decrease in population is equivalent to increasing the population from another perspective!"
After his idea was confirmed, Chunyu Yi nodded repeatedly, looking very excited.
"Your Highness, I once followed my master to practice medicine in the city. Many young people died because their minor illnesses could not be treated in time and developed into serious illnesses!"
“There are also some who died because their families were poor and could not afford medicine!”
"Many of them died because the doctors' poor medical skills delayed the best opportunity for treatment!"
"If we can find a way to increase the number of doctors, reduce the price of medicinal materials, and improve the medical skills of doctors, we can definitely reduce the number of deaths of hundreds of thousands of people every year!"
The more Chunyu Yi talked, the more excited she became, and she rattled off a bunch of ideas about medical treatment.
Ying Feiyu listened to his thoughts, drank tea, and nodded from time to time.
Originally, Chunyu Yi just thought that stethoscopes were very useful and hoped to produce more and sell them to doctors so that everyone could diagnose more clearly.
Unexpectedly, His Highness the Crown Prince was interested in discovering medical treatments, so he simply said more!
"You have a good idea, but do you have any specific plans?"
Ying Feiyu slowly put down the tea cup and raised his eyebrows in question.
"Specific plan? Um...this...?"
Chun Yuyi hesitated, losing the excitement just now, "To be honest with His Highness, the common people are not good at medical skills. They understand the principles of developing medical skills, but they don't admit to having any specific plans, and they don't dare to think about it!"
He has been studying medicine since he was sensible, and it has been more than ten years now, but he has always been a commoner, so what qualifications do he have to make plans?
If you want to popularize medical skills and medical conditions, you need a lot of funds.
He can't even take care of his own food and clothing, so what qualifications do he have to make plans?
"Have you never thought about it? Or do you dare not think about it?"
Ying Feiyu could tell from his words and expression that this kid had an idea, but he just didn't dare to say it for some reason.
If he really hadn't thought about anything, it would be impossible for him to say what he said before!
Chun Yuyi didn't expect that he would ask so directly. After thinking for a long time, he said awkwardly: "I don't dare to think about it!"
"If you have any ideas, just tell me, I will handle everything!"
If it were in the future, he would never dare to say this.
But now that God has given him the opportunity to travel through time and live a better life, he must do something for Da Qin!
In addition to keeping people fed and clothed, we also want to make them live more comfortably!
This requires medical treatment!
Even if you cannot reach the standards of future generations, you should still strive to improve!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a keen eye. When ordinary people have nothing to do, they do think about some things that are not there!"
Chunyu Yi scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Then tell me what you have and don't have!"
"Learning medicine is a very long road. I have been with the master since I was a child. I have struggled for several years just grinding and picking medicines. The master does not teach any medical skills at all. I have to go through many tests before I can start learning to diagnose the pulse! By the time he has mastered medical skills, he will probably be middle-aged!"
"In these years, there was no salary at all, and the most was enough to eat. So now many people are unwilling to study medicine. In the future, there will be fewer and fewer doctors, resulting in lower and lower medical standards!"
"Medical skills are indeed very complicated, and you need to be careful and patient to learn them well! But if someone is willing to teach you everything like the teachers in the school, you can learn a lot in six or seven years!"
Chunyu Yi laid a lot of groundwork.
"so what?"
"So... if it is possible, the common people hope to have a school that teaches medical skills! The kind that teaches everything without reservation! People can start simple diagnosis and treatment after learning!"
"Academies can also be set up like schools, with primary schools, middle schools and universities! After graduating from primary school, if you want to continue studying, you can learn more advanced medical skills. As for universities, they invite famous medical experts to teach and learn some difficult and complicated diseases. !”
These are all things Chun Yuyi came up with when he was free.
Or rather, it was what he expected!
As soon as he finished speaking, Chun Yuyi carefully cast his gaze over!
He also knew that what he said was all unreasonable and far-fetched, but he still had a glimmer of hope!
Especially when I see schools being established and so many children going to study!
If reading is replaced by medical skills, more doctors will be born in the future, and there will definitely be many outstanding ones among them.
No matter what difficult and complicated diseases the people have, they don’t have to worry about finding a good doctor!
