Yao Ji also had to explain to these "indigenous illiterate people" what he had learned and what he planned to do next: "Hospitals are divided into government-run hospitals and private hospitals. They have been established in the Tang and Song Dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, they were called 'suffering houses'. In the Song Dynasty, the government-run hospital was called 'Anjifang', and the private hospital was called 'Yangjiyuan' or 'Shou'anyuan'. There are similar places in this dynasty, but the management is not strict, the operation is not standardized, the division of labor is not clear, and the diagnosis and treatment are not clear. Reasonable. More importantly, the quantity is seriously insufficient and the quality is uneven, so I hope to use the government-run 'Beijing Hospital' to set the industry benchmark. Build a hospital in the capital with the largest area in China, with the most wards and beds, and raise funds Doctors with the most superb medical skills can maximize medical effectiveness and lay a solid foundation for future promotion and improvement."

The coverage density of medical personnel in later generations is that each medical personnel serves two hundred people. There are nearly one million people in the capital. Even if there is one doctor for every one thousand people, one thousand will be needed. The actual number is far lower than this. Once a major epidemic occurs, The imperial court was simply unable to do what it wanted and could only resign itself to fate.

And the most terrible thing is that even if there are a thousand doctors, they may all prescribe a thousand different prescriptions for the same disease!

Although most of them are not the kind of people who draw lots, tell fortunes, and use acupuncture, they can really trick people to death if they do this. Who knows whether you have treated similar diseases or whether the prescriptions you prescribed are effective?

After setting up a modern-style hospital, although the number of doctors will not increase rapidly, they can unify the diagnosis and treatment plan and prescribe the most effective prescription. And as long as they undergo batch training, nurses with auxiliary treatment capabilities will be born on a large scale. Under the current circumstances, this should be the fastest and most reliable epidemic prevention strategy.

"The preparations will naturally be led and managed by the Medical Department. The Imperial Hospital will allocate some imperial doctors, and then recruit the famous Dr. Minjian from the capital. The two groups will work together to diagnose and treat, taking turns to work day and night. I will write corresponding training courses, It is for everyone to study together. All the funds required are allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs and reimbursed in real terms. Any violations will be severely punished once verified. In view of the long construction period of the hospital's housing, it is enough to use Ding Guogong's mansion directly with a few modifications. , it can be put into use in less than a month.”

Yaoji knows that his starting point is beautiful, noble, and full of humane and caring feelings, but when it is implemented in detail, a lot of nonsense will definitely happen.

I’m not afraid that nothing good will happen, I’m just afraid that there won’t be good people. There must be countless projects to take and get cards, and then I will have to give them to this group of doctors and managers myself, and use a machete to "treat them hard"...

Using "Huangdou Gong's" luxurious house as a hospital is worthy of him. It can be regarded as indirectly doing some good deeds for this guy. If he really goes down there, Huangdou can take care of enough...

According to the carve-up agreement between the six ministries and the prince, the prince's residence and land are all under the control of the prince, so it is understandable for Yao Ji to do this. If there are really some among the officials who want to buy the bottom, it is impossible to realize it in this sensitive period.

No one in the entire Ming Dynasty would dare to buy a super luxurious compound like the residences of the three princes. The cost of purchasing a house can easily reach 100,000 taels. As long as you make a move, the prince will definitely know that you have a lot of money in your pocket, which will cause trouble. .

Therefore, using it as a hospital seems to be the most sensible solution at present. The ministers have to thank me, because the residences of the three princes are located in the wealthy area on the west side of the inner city. To build a modern hospital here, they There is no doubt that those who are near the water and the towers can get the moon first.

If someone has a headache or a fever, of course the officials and rich gentry can ask a doctor to come to their home for diagnosis, but the medicine box the doctor carries is obviously not comparable to the complete equipment of the hospital, not to mention that the hospital can summon multiple doctors for consultation.

For Yaoji, with the establishment of the hospital, nearby land prices will soar, which will be beneficial to his own real estate development. Although it is difficult for those confiscated mansions to be sold to individuals, they can be used as restaurants, inns, nightclubs and other consumption venues.

With the support of hospitals, not only will the prices of these houses not drop, but they will also increase significantly. In line with the principle of making the best use of everything, Yaoji plans to study the map carefully to see where to open a department store.

For all real estate projects, Yaoji has only two requirements, either to make money every day and relieve the pressure on his own small treasury. Either make money or make a good reputation, such as a hospital.

In short, if a thief does not go short, whether it is tangible or intangible, he must make money. He cannot spend a long time and end up with a loss-making business.

As soon as he heard that it involved appropriations from the Ministry of Revenue, Li Daiwen, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, immediately said: "I don't know how much money your Highness has to ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate?"

Don't spend millions and taels easily. No one who becomes the Minister of Household Affairs can withstand such a big stimulus.

Yao Ji did not intend to ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to allocate funds first, lest the money would be eaten up by moths before the plan was completed: "If you are not busy, let the Medical Department make the budget first, the same as the Ministry of Works' city construction plan. Regarding the land use , this palace has already solved the problem for the medical department, but Duke Ding’s residence still needs to be renovated to meet the requirements of the hospital, such as setting up a reception hall, outpatient room, operating room, hospitalization area, disinfection room, isolation area, pharmacy, and cashier. Cabinets, etc. According to the functions of diagnosis and treatment, it must be divided into gynecology, andrology, pediatrics, surgery, internal medicine, ENT, stomatology, dermatology, neurology, etc. The budget must cover buildings, personnel, medicines, equipment, vehicles, etc. Parts, each part must be refined, and it must be detailed and complete, and you cannot just swallow it all and get past it.”

When the prince said this, Lu Zhenfei suddenly felt like his head was getting bigger. This so-called hospital actually has so many departments. Not to mention putting it into practice, it would be a bit tricky to write it. If you don't have relevant experience, , you really have to walk on thin ice.

Prince Shicai spoke very quickly. The new Minister of Medicine did not remember it at all, and it was even more impossible to record it with a pen. After the court meeting was over, he would have to find the two ministers to study it and see how everyone collectively recalled it. How much content can be remembered.

Yaoji also saw the embarrassed expressions of these "senior men", and comforted them: "You three dears, don't worry, I have written down the required content in a booklet. After reading it, if you have any questions, Just ask again. I don’t need you to use your brains, but your hands-on ability must be strong, that is, your execution ability must be high, and what is stated in the booklet must be fulfilled without any discount!"

The brochure is written in vernacular, and anyone who is literate can understand the general meaning, let alone the court officials.

I am helping you with your work, but if you still dare to be lazy and sloppy later on, then you are thinking that I am a bullshit again.

Among the last batch of such guys was the now-famous "Huang Dou Gong", and now his home is about to be turned into a hospital!

The prince had already mentioned this, so Lu Zhenfei had no way out, so he could only face the difficulties and go forward to repay the sage's appreciation: "I will do my best, no one dares to disobey!"

Now that there are relevant brochures, the actual work of the medical department has become much easier. Even for a layman, if he makes a plan according to the above steps, he will not deviate too much, at least he will not deviate from the prince's original intention.

The capital has been harboring filth for a long time, and if it is just an official treatment, Yaoji thinks the intensity is not strong enough: “One more thing, since the capital is about to launch environmental rectification, every household should also carry out a personal hygiene campaign to eliminate five kinds of filth. Target pests, namely flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, lice, and rats. These pests are the root cause of spreading plagues and causing harm to various places in Jifu. If they are not eliminated in large numbers, they will inevitably threaten the daily lives of the people of Ming Dynasty! For example, a small Flies can spread more than ten kinds of viruses such as dysentery, cholera, typhoid, hepatitis, etc. If they cannot be eliminated, they will endanger life and health!"

The ministers all looked at each other in shock after hearing this. According to what the prince said, isn't this thing, which is not much bigger than a soybean, a big evil star?

Although everyone knows that flies usually eat smelly and rotten things, they have never heard that they can spread so many viruses.

Yao Minggong, the waiter at the left of the Ministry of Rites, was puzzled and felt that the prince's words were too alarmist: "I wonder how your highness learned about the dangers of this insect? Could it be that flies are a greater threat than tigers?"

For the ancients who had limited vision and knowledge, they absolutely did not believe it when they were told that flies are more harmful than tigers. At least flies do not eat living people, tigers take one bite at a time.

Yao Ji sighed and explained sincerely: "I have returned from the fairy world, so I naturally know the history of this insect. Flies have lived on our planet for more than 200 million years, that is, 20 million years. And we humans have been alive since our birth. Until now, it has only been 50,000 years, which is only one 2,000th of the history of flies."

As soon as these words came out, the fire in the hall immediately started. Not to mention Yao Minggong who asked questions, even the first assistant Xue Guoguan and the mature and prudent Sun Chuanting were shocked. Could it be that a dignified human being can't compare to a fly the size of a fingertip?

This result is really incredible. How can a small fly live for such a long time? Longer than human history, how is this possible?

Chen Yan, the elder of the imperial family, was originally in charge of the Hanlin Academy. He thought that although he was not a rich scholar, he could still be regarded as a well-educated scholar in the Ming Dynasty. Hearing the strange and surprising remarks of the prince, he decided not to believe it.

Prince Shicai said "on our planet", which may not be consistent with the ancient theory of a round sky and a square earth, so he immediately asked: "Your Highness just said 'our planet', could it be that the earth under our feet is similar to the stars in the sky? I am a great Ming Dynasty Inherited from Yanhuang, it is said that Pangu opened the sky and Nuwa created human beings. If flies have a history of 20 million years and humans only have a history of 50,000 years, where did Pangu and Nuwa come from?"

Chen Yan's views and questions were immediately approved by the ministers, and everyone nodded. Hanlin is Hanlin, and everything he thinks is profound. They don't think that flies can climb on people and become ancestors.

If you go by what the prince said, wouldn't it mean that a fly created Pangu, and then he could create the world? Pangu was a descendant of a fly, let alone a great scholar. Even the common people in the world would never accept this bastard inference.

This kind of question can also be asked to the local indigenous people. Is it impossible for a time traveler? Yaoji chuckled and said, "I will answer the first question raised by Aiqing first. First, give an example. Fran In September 1519 AD, which was the 14th year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, Magellan set out from the port of Franco and returned to Franco in September 1522. It took three years and proved that the earth under our feet is a sphere. Otherwise, We will go to the end of the world. Everyone in the West knows this. The world map brought by Tang Ruowang was born because of this voyage, and the Francois also relied on the world's leading navigation technology to cross thousands of miles of ocean and come to us. Ming dynasty."

Many ministers know that there is a guy like Tang Ruowang, but very few people know about Magellan. Warlock Tang has not mentioned this to others a few times. After all, Ming people believe in the theory of a round sky and a square place. If you tell them that there is a sphere under your feet, the result will be It's the same as saying Xiang is fragrant.

The earth is round or a sphere. This is a fact that is difficult for the officials to accept. If it is round, why does it not slip? Why can you stand firm? Why is the land we see always flat?

It didn't make sense either emotionally or rationally, so as long as the officials in the palace who could hear the prince's holy voice, many kept shaking their heads, expressing their confusion. Even the generals of the Han Dynasty didn't believe it, but they were not qualified to speak.

Anyway, it’s just to give you some insights. Yaoji doesn’t care about the reaction of these idiots and continues to pour strong medicine on everyone: “The shape of our planet is no different from the sun and the moon, but the sun is tens of thousands of times larger than the earth where we are, and the moon is It is smaller than the earth. There is no Guanghan Palace on the moon, let alone Chang'e. It is just a bare area, similar to that outside the Great Wall, but the temperature is extremely low. If you don't wear special clothes, you will freeze to death if you go up there. The temperature of the sun is just right. On the contrary, as long as you get within a few miles of it, it will turn into ashes!"

What the prince said shattered the ultimate dreams of hundreds of Han generals and pig guys. Without the graceful Chang'e, how could everyone live at night?

The ministers didn't believe that the moon was so unsightly that the prince said, but the situation of the sun was almost as expected, it was a big and very hot sphere.

What about the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun? So aren’t there ten suns in the sky? Hou Yi shot down nine of them, leaving only the current one. Wouldn’t the prince want to deny this story?

"Speaking of 'Hou Yi shoots the sun', I can responsibly tell you that the sun has a history of tens of billions of years, while human history is only 50,000 years old, so 'Hou Yi shoots the sun' is just a myth that was made up later. It’s just an allusion, don’t take it seriously! The history of our earth is four billion years old. Before the birth of human beings, the largest overlords on the earth were creatures called dinosaurs. Each weighed tens of thousands of kilograms, had sharp teeth that could penetrate stone, and had thick and hard skin. Like iron, they perished later and not a single one survived. Although the cockroaches, mosquitoes, and flies of the same era were small and pitiful, they have continued to multiply to this day with their amazing evolutionary abilities. So don’t underestimate these insects. , Since ancient times, the consequences of underestimating the enemy have been extremely painful."

If I can't fool even you natives, how can I fool the world, and then go on to fool the world?

When you go out to hang out, cheating is the most basic basic skill!

Even if you don't know how to do it at first, you will be able to master this skill after you fool around a lot.
