Naive people always have one thing in common. They think things are too simple, but things in the world are always a little complicated. Although the current prince Zhu Heyu has grown up, it is still difficult to completely get rid of the childish nature in his heart.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince uses himself to judge others, believing that all virtuous people in the world will hate Zhao Junchen and will never take the initiative to approach him.
Therefore, the prince believed that now that he gave Zhang Decheng a chance to stay away from Zhao Junchen, Zhang Decheng would definitely agree to him.
However, the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
But he said that after hearing the invitation from Prince Zhu Heyu, Zhang Decheng did not readily agree. Instead, he hesitated and looked at Zhao Junchen subconsciously, actually actively seeking Zhao Junchen's opinion.
Seeing this scene, Prince Zhu Heyu thought it was Zhang De who was worried that he would encounter Zhao Junchen's revenge after leaving the Zhao Mansion, so he comforted him: "Please rest assured, Doctor Zhang, you don't have to worry about anyone! You will never do that." Anyone is trying to make things difficult for Divine Doctor Zhang because of his decision! Even if someone really wants to make things difficult for Divine Doctor Zhang, as the crown prince, I am absolutely capable of protecting Divine Doctor Zhang and will never let Divine Doctor Zhang suffer any injustice!"
After saying this categorically, Prince Zhu Heyu turned to look at Zhao Junchen and asked in a solemn tone: "Master Zhao, what do you think?"
The threat was unconcealed.
Facing the faint threat from Prince Zhu Heyu, Zhao Junchen still looked calm and smiling, and also helped Prince Zhu Heyu to persuade Zhang Decheng, saying: "What His Highness the Prince said does make sense! Please rest assured, Doctor Zhang, if you I will only be happy for you when you leave the Zhao Mansion and go to live in the East Palace and become a confidant of His Highness the Crown Prince! So Doctor Zhang doesn’t need to take into account my thoughts... It’s a pity..."
At this point, Zhao Junchen shook his head and sighed, and said: "It's a pity that I originally planned to have a long-term cooperation with Doctor Zhang. If the miracle doctor goes to live in the East Palace, this plan will have to be shelved. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a distinguished status and a far higher position and power." For me, whatever I can do, His Highness the Prince can definitely do it too!"
It was fine if Zhao Junchen didn't say anything, but after Zhao Junchen mentioned "long-term cooperation," Zhang Decheng became even more hesitant.
In fact, Prince Zhu Heyu's idea was not wrong. Zhang Decheng and Zhao Junchen were not the same people, let alone like-minded. However, there was a reason why Zhang Decheng was willing to live in Zhao Mansion and let Zhao Junchen be driven.
As mentioned above, in order to win over Zhang Decheng, a national miracle doctor, and to further change his public image, Zhao Junchen once proposed to Zhang Decheng that they jointly open a medical school. Zhao Junchen would provide a large amount of human, financial and material resources. And ensure the normal operation of the medical school, but will not interfere with the specific operations of the medical school. As for Zhang Decheng, he will be the head of the medical school and will be specifically responsible for all affairs of the medical school.
Although Zhang Decheng's medical skills are extremely brilliant, his medical ethics are even more admirable. Using his medical skills to benefit the people all over the world is Zhang Decheng's highest ambition in life, so it is naturally difficult for him to resist Zhao Junchen's proposal. After all, this family Once the medical school is established, a large number of qualified doctors will be added to the private sector, and tens of thousands of people will benefit. This is much more effective than Zhang Decheng's alone.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Decheng has been willing to be driven by Zhao Junchen during this period. He does whatever Zhao Junchen asks him to do without any complaints, almost becoming Zhao Junchen's personal doctor.
For Zhao Junchen, everyone has a weakness. Some people's weakness is fame, some people's weakness is advantage, some people's weakness is women, and some people's weakness is power. And Zhang Decheng has the world's medical ethics in mind, and the same This is his weakness. As long as this is grasped, controlling Zhang Decheng is not much more complicated than controlling those corrupt officials!
Nowadays, although Zhang Decheng appreciates Prince Zhu Heyu even more, and he and Zhao Junchen are indeed not the same person, but after hearing the invitation from Prince Zhu Heyu, Zhang Decheng was very hesitant.
Although the reputation of Prince Zhu Heyu is very good, but because of this, Zhu Heyu is definitely not as rich as the corrupt official Zhao Junchen. Zhang Decheng's ideal medical school is simply a gold-swallowing beast. Zhao Junchen has the ability to support Zhang Decheng's idea, but Prince Zhu Heyu may not be capable.
On the other side, after hearing Zhao Junchen's words and seeing Zhang Decheng's increasingly hesitant look, Prince Zhu Heyu finally realized that something was wrong and asked: "Doctor Zhang, I don't know what the 'long-term cooperation' that Zhao Junchen talked about is." What do you mean?"
Zhang Decheng did not hide anything and replied: "I hope His Highness the Prince knows that Mr. Zhao proposed to Zhang a few days ago that he would provide human and financial resources to open a large-scale medical school, and Zhang would serve as the head of the hospital. If Zhang went to live in the East Palace. It may be difficult for this matter to come to an end..."
Hearing Zhang Decheng's explanation, Prince Zhu Heyu was a little dissatisfied and said: "So, what do I think it is? It's just a medical school. If you are willing, Dr. Zhang, I can arrange for Dr. Zhang to enter the Royal Hospital right away." With Dr. Zhang’s medical ethics and skills, it will be just around the corner to become the head of the Imperial Hospital. It’s just a medical school, so why should Dr. Zhang care?”
If other doctors heard Prince Zhu Heyu's promise, they would definitely be ecstatic, but Zhang Decheng shook his head solemnly and said: "Your Highness, the Imperial Hospital is certainly a holy place for people in the world, but the imperial doctors there only serve for Seeing medical treatment for the royal family and important ministers is not what Zhang aspires to do! According to Zhang, there are enough famous doctors and national experts to treat the royal family and important ministers. It is not Zhang who is missing, but tens of millions of ordinary people. There are not many famous doctors to find, and they need Zhang more, so Zhang refused His Majesty’s call back then and still stayed in the private sector as a medical practitioner..."
At this point, Zhang Decheng's expression flashed with longing, and he continued: "The medical school proposed by Mr. Zhao is a place for the common people and to train Xinglin talents for the common people. Once this medical school is opened, , in a few decades it will greatly alleviate the lack of medical doctors among the people. This is what Zhang really values, and I hope His Highness the Crown Prince can understand."
Although Zhang Decheng rejected Prince Zhu Heyu's proposal, after hearing Zhang Decheng's explanation, Prince Zhu Heyu was in awe and sighed: "It's me who underestimated Dr. Zhang's medical ethics aspirations. Just because of this With his thoughts in mind, Doctor Zhang is worthy of being praised by the people as the incense of thousands of families that gave birth to Buddha!"
Then, Prince Zhu Heyu also had a solemn expression and said: "Since it is so beneficial to the people, why does Dr. Zhang need to turn to someone like Zhao Junchen for help? Dr. Zhang, please rest assured that after Dr. Zhang moves into the East Palace, this Donggong will be responsible for all the expenses required for the establishment and maintenance of the medical school!"
The words of Prince Zhu Heyu can be said to be full of sincerity and vows, but he still kept things simple.
After all, Zhu Heyu cherishes the power of the people and values the people, but he grew up in the royal family, with clothes on his hands, food on his hands, food on his hands, and everything at his fingertips. It is inevitable that he is a little out of touch, and he does not understand how huge it is to open a medical school. s expenses.
However, although Zhu Heyu did not understand this, Zhang Decheng, who was rooted in the people, knew very well how staggering this expense would be.
Therefore, after hearing Zhu Heyu's promise, Zhang Decheng not only did not get excited, but said with a serious expression: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you don't understand that the cost of opening a medical school cannot be solved with tens of thousands of taels of silver. Thing! Scholars only need books and ink to learn literature, and one teacher can teach dozens of students. Warriors only need swords, guns and equipment, plus some meat to supplement their martial arts. However, the cost of studying medicine is much higher...
… Let’s not talk about the land, rooms and courtyards needed when this medical school was founded. Just hiring teachers is expensive. If you want to teach qualified students, the teacher’s level must be higher. With such a level of Doctors are often the leaders of apricot groves in various places. They are not short of money and require a high price to hire them. In order to ensure the success of students, a teacher can only be responsible for two or three subjects at most and teach six or seven students at the same time. According to Zhang's estimate, after the medical school is established, it will need to hire at least twenty Xinglin masters to teach. Just the salary of these Xinglin masters will cost ten thousand taels of silver every year...
...In addition, students need to learn medical skills, and identifying and brewing medicinal materials are the basics. The cost of this part of medicinal materials is a large amount of money...
…Also, after students have learned basic medical skills, they still have to travel with their teachers to gain experience among the people. I am afraid that this part of the travel expenses will also require subsidies from the medical school…
...At the same time, studying medicine is very expensive, and those who are willing to study medicine are unlikely to come from wealthy families, so students cannot pay too much tuition. The college even has to provide students with basic food and clothing. …”
In this way, Zhang Decheng began to calculate in detail every expense of the medical school to Prince Zhu Heyu with his fingers.
This medical school is related to Zhang Decheng's life ambition. It's no wonder that Zhang Decheng is so serious.
On the other side, every time Zhang Decheng mentioned an item of expenditure, the smile on Zhu Heyu's face became stiffer, and he looked slightly embarrassed.
Because, Prince Zhu Heyu discovered that even if he put in all the money from the East Palace every year, it would still not be enough to cover half of the daily expenses of this medical school!
At first he vowed that he would take on the matter, but in the end he found that he did not have the ability at all. Prince Zhu Heyu was naturally a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Zhang Decheng was still settling accounts one by one, and the amount of money required was getting higher and higher, Prince Zhu Heyu finally couldn't help but interrupt and asked: "Doctor Zhang, it's just a medical school, so much money is needed." ? Can you cut some?"
Zhang Decheng shook his head solemnly and said: "The things Zhang listed are already the minimum amount, and they really cannot be reduced... In fact, the conditions provided by Mr. Zhao are even more stringent than those listed by Zhang. Higher!"
At this point, Zhang Decheng's thoughts finally became firm and he said again: "Zhang is willing to live in Mr. Zhao's house just because of this matter! If it weren't for this matter, Zhang would have left the capital long ago and continued to travel. Healing the world! Therefore, if Your Highness the Crown Prince cannot help with this matter, I am afraid that Zhang will not be able to live with you in the East Palace."
In this way, Zhang Decheng finally completely rejected the invitation of Prince Zhu Heyu.
Prince Zhu Heyu also had nothing to say about Zhang Decheng's rejection.
Things in the world are often like this. Things such as ideals and ambitions are certainly noble, beautiful and desirable, but they often need to bow to reality, and the so-called reality is often determined by the smell of copper!
This time, Prince Zhu Heyu lost to the copper-smelling thing that he had always looked down upon.
