Swish, swish, swish.
Within a moment, a prescription was written.
The doctors outside the house crowded in like catfish and took the prescriptions respectfully, treating them as treasures.
"Master Sun, look at these imperial doctors, they are really useless!"
Li Shimin frowned and sighed, then said sincerely,
"Can I invite Zhenren Sun to join Taiyuan Hospital as the director?"
"If Master Sun is willing, I can give him first-class treatment and double his salary!"
This promise can be considered sincere.
The ministers in charge of affairs in the Tang Dynasty, such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, etc., only had third-grade titles.
Xu Fenglei was the crown prince and grand master, and he was an extremely good minister, but he was only of the first rank.
Only Li Shimin, who once served as General Tiance, has enjoyed the treatment of a genuine first-class officer.
However, facing the high-ranking official and his generous salary, Sun Simiao shook his head.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I have no intention of becoming an official."
He declined politely,
"Compared with serving the royal family, I would rather travel around the world and relieve the suffering of people all over the world."
The eldest grandson Wugou nodded slightly.
"Zhenren Sun has lofty ideals and is the great master of the world."
She looked at Li Shimin, waved her hands gently and said,
"Er Feng, please don't force me. Cheng Qian and I are very lucky to have Master Sun come to our rescue many times."
Li Shimin felt a little regretful when he heard this, but in the end he could only nod.
"Okay..."
He said,
"However, Sun Zhenren has saved the prince and the queen many times and has done a lot of credit. Although Sun Zhenren is indifferent to fame and fortune, I cannot but reward him."
"Otherwise, people in the world will say that I am mean and ungrateful."
When Sun Simiao heard this, he stood up and saluted.
"It is Lao Cai's job to treat diseases. I always do not charge for treatment in the countryside. Your Majesty must not break Lao Cao's rules."
He continued,
"If Your Majesty really wants a reward, please reward Xu Tingming and let him speed up the construction of the medical school."
"That is a good thing that can really make the medical profession prosper and benefit the country and the people!"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and laughed.
"Isn't this a coincidence? I was just talking about this to Ting Ming."
He said seriously,
"Don't worry, real person. I can guarantee that this medical school will be completed within three or two years!"
"At that time, all the doctors in the world will go to the medical school to further their studies and accept your teachings and assessments, including these useless doctors in the palace. If they don't graduate from the medical school, they won't have to come back!"
The doctor who was boiling medicine outside the house was very happy: "Is there such a good thing?!"
"If this can be done, it will be a blessing for all people in the world."
Sun Simiao's face was red and he responded with a smile.
He alone cannot save the sick in the world.
But if we set up a college and graduate batches of doctors on a large scale, it will definitely make the medical system cover all corners of the country!
By then, it will become a reality that everyone can get treatment without panic...
Even though I am very old, this beautiful thing... makes me excited just thinking about it!
While they were chatting, several children outside the house came in.
Li Chengqian held a bowl of warm medicinal soup, looked at his mother nervously, handed it to his mother and said:
"Mother, drink the medicine quickly..."
"You'll be fine after drinking it. The same thing happened to my child before. After drinking Grandpa Sun's medicine, you'll be fine..."
"Come... let the baby feed you..."
I saw him carefully scooping up the spoon and bringing it to his mother's mouth.
The other children all looked nervous.
But they are also very sensible and know that they can't cause trouble just now, and they can't make trouble now and ruin the queen mother's tranquility.
"Okay, be good, you are all good children..."
Changsun Wujia smiled happily, took the soup and drank it in one gulp.
A bitter smell filled the house.
"Well--"
She held her forehead and murmured,
"A little dizzy……"
Xu Fenglei couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
"If the medicine does not cure the dizziness, the disease will not be cured. If you feel dizzy, it means you have used the medicine correctly."
He said,
"My dear, please take a good rest. I believe your energy will be restored soon."
Changsun Wugao opened his eyes slightly and pointed at Li Chengqian.
"Master Sun, could you please help Cheng Qian and see if his condition is getting better?"
Although she herself felt uncomfortable, she still did not forget her son's condition.
This is almost becoming a heartache.
If the disease in the heart is not cured, how can the body be in peace?
"good."
Sun Simiao was also unequivocal and stepped forward to grab Li Chengqian's pulse.
Li Chengqian sat down obediently and cooperated extremely well.
In just a few seconds, the two fingers on the pulse were withdrawn.
"It's no longer a serious problem."
Sun Simiao smiled and said,
"Old medicine, combined with Ting Ming's daily routine and diet, can only quench thirst, so why should we be afraid?"
"Don't worry, the Queen, as long as I am here, I will definitely take good care of His Highness the Crown Prince and will never let him make any mistakes."
These words were like a reassurance, fed to Changsun Wujia.
"Thank you so much Master Sun..."
Changsun Wugou closed his eyes with a relieved expression, and his whole body relaxed.
"Let's all go out and let the Queen have a good rest."
Xu Fenglei stood up and said,
"Your Majesty, you can go out too, you don't have to accompany me all the time."
When Li Shimin saw his wife sleeping deeply, his body and mind finally relaxed.
"good."
He responded, stood up and told the maid a few words before turning and leaving.
After everyone left the house, the maids fetched hot water towels, cleaned the eldest grandson Wujia's body, and changed the bedding and mattress.
…
"Master..."
Li Lizhi pursed her lips, looked up at Xu Fenglei, and asked,
"What kind of disease does my mother have? Is it serious?"
Several children gathered next to Xu Fenglei with nervous expressions on their faces.
They saw with their own eyes the shocking pool of blood on the bed!
"It's not serious. If you want to blame it, blame your father!"
Xu Fenglei laughed.
When Li Shimin heard this, his face suddenly darkened!
What kind of dirty talk is this! How bad it is for children to hear this!
"ah?"
Li Tai said anxiously,
"Father, what happened to your mother? What happened to your mother?"
"Did you hit her? Wuwuwu... I won't let you bully the queen!"
Several children immediately attacked Li Er, making Xu Fenglei almost laugh out loud.
"Oh, what kind of beating, what kind of bullying, is your father like that kind of person? It's too late for my father to dote on you, how can I be willing to beat your mother!"
Li Shimin said helplessly,
"Don't listen to your master's nonsense!"
"Your mother is pregnant and weak. She is going to give birth to your younger brothers and sisters!"
Li Chengqian: "?!"
Li Tai: "?!"
Li Lizhi: "!!!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Xu Fenglei laughed and stepped forward, jokingly saying,
"Do you want a younger brother or a younger sister?"
Li Chengqian's eyes lit up; "I want a sister! Don't be a bad brother, otherwise you will snatch things from me like Qingque every day!"
Li Tai raised his hand: "I want a sister too! She's cuter than Lizi, Lizi is too uncute!"
Li Lizhi puffed up her mouth and said proudly: "Hehe...that child is not the youngest! Master can no longer call me the youngest!"
Li Shimin: "..."
Xu Fenglei: "..."
Don’t guess about the brain circuit of a child...
…
Tai Chi Palace, Ministry of Industry.
A magnificent drawing was displayed in front of Xu Fenglei.
"Minister, please look at——"
Yan Liben was full of energy and pointed at the design drawings.
"You said before that not only should schools be opened to allow the noble children and smart children of the right age in Chang'an to enroll, but also medical schools and colleges of science and engineering should be opened."
"So I thought it might be better to put these three courtyards together."
"In this case, we only need to demolish a few connected squares in the south of the city to free up the land."
Xu Fenglei's eyes widened.
He looked at the complicated design in front of him and said in surprise:
"How many cities?"
"Why did I see you hollowed out the middle piece? This adds up to... I'm afraid it's nine squares, right?!"
Faced with this inquiry, Yan Liben could only smile.
"Don't be alarmed, Minister. There is nothing we can do about it."
He said,
"The three buildings already occupy a large area. Considering the supporting facilities, future development and expansion..."
"These nine cities are really not too many."
"Besides, not all of the city will be demolished. Some of them can be used as student residences and can be retained."
Xu Fenglei: "..."
"So what's your budget?"
He held his forehead and couldn't help but said,
"Such a huge project is enough to build a small palace!"
Take a look.
If Jiufang City is separated and surrounded, isn't it just a small Tai Chi Palace?
"Return to my lord."
Yan Lide held an account book and said,
"According to Liben's design, the total cost should be over eight million taels of silver."
"This does not include labor costs, because His Majesty has decreed that we can use corvees for this project."
Xu Fenglei was completely embarrassed.
"No... do you think this money was brought by the strong wind?"
He glared at the two of them and scolded,
"Do you know what eight million taels of silver is?"
"How much of one year's tax revenue from the treasury can be converted into silver? Eight million... Just let the whole court drink from the northwest wind for three years!"
It is an astronomical figure when measured in silver.
Not to mention converted into copper coins, it would probably pile up into a mountain!
"hey-hey……"
Yan Liben said happily,
"Isn't there someone here to help me find a solution..."
When he was designing, he was very excited about the design. It took him a month to come up with the most comprehensive and detailed design drawing!
It can be said that as long as the funds are in place, construction can start tomorrow according to the drawings, without any ambiguity!
"No, the budget must be cut, and it must be cut drastically!"
Xu Fenglei said unceremoniously,
"Neither I nor the court can spend so much money in a short period of time."
"There are too many places where the imperial court needs money, and I don't just care about this. What I want is not three luxurious places or a noble school."
"What I want is practicality! Do you understand practicality?"
The two brothers looked at each other and listened obediently.
"The mountains are not high, if there are immortals, they will be famous; if the water is not deep, if there are dragons, there will be spirits. This is a humble house, but I am virtuous."
Xu Fenglei said again,
"A house is just a platform and a carrier. The key is the people who teach and do research!"
"As long as people are capable, even if they are in the open air, they can still get things done. Don't put the cart before the horse."
"Budget, cut it in half."
Click the knife.
Eight million taels was directly reduced to four million taels.
Yan Liben's face suddenly turned into a bitter melon.
"this……"
He hesitated and said,
"Half of the budget has been cut off abruptly. I am worried that the results will not satisfy the minister..."
Xu Fenglei waved his hand.
"As long as the foundation and framework are established, the rest can be developed slowly in the future..."
He suggested,
"I don't completely reject your plan, but I'm still hungry. You have to solve the problem of eating first, and then think about delicacies, right?"
"The top priority now is to open the three colleges in the shortest possible time and put them into normal use. This is enough."
"Following projects can be based on the development of the college, and the second and third phases of the project can be developed and constructed step by step."
"Don't think about eating and becoming fat in one go, do you understand?"
Yan Liben's eyes lit up.
He didn't hear much, only that his plan had not been rejected, just put on hold temporarily.
"I understand."
He cupped his hands and smiled,
"Please rest assured, Minister, I will work with my brother to keep the budget down."
Yan Lide, who was standing by, also offered his assurance.
"Um."
Xu Fenglei praised,
"You two brothers are still very efficient and capable in your work."
"I have spoken to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for you about this year's evaluation. It is certain that you will get an excellent result. As for you, you must keep up your efforts and don't slack off."
After some instruction, immediately put a sweet date.
I have long been familiar with the way of managing people.
"Thank you!"
The two brothers looked at each other and saw the excitement and joy in each other's eyes.
This word "excellent" is a confirmation of their achievements this year!
"No need to thank me, just catch up on the progress."
Xu Fenglei waved his hand and said,
"His Majesty is already pushing forward the progress."
"As soon as your design is approved, the Ministry of Accounts will allocate the first payment immediately, and my Fenglei Bank, including the funds given by the nobles and nobles of the country, will also be released immediately."
"At that time, you will be able to work all year round."
A large building complex, plus the daily official duties and projects of the Ministry of Industry, plus a minister of the Ministry of Industry who doesn't take care of much...
These two brothers will definitely be exhausted!
"yes!"
When the two heard this, they were not afraid at all, but were full of energy.
When working in the court, the fear is not that you have to work hard day and night, but that you have nothing to do and no work to do.
If such a big project is done well and done well, can the credit be any less?
As if he saw what the two of them were thinking, Xu Fenglei stepped forward and patted their shoulders and said with a smile:
"At that time, after the completion and acceptance, I will immediately give you two brothers a promotion report."
"One will take over my position as the Minister of Industry, and the other will be the General Craftsman! From now on, all the projects in Datang will be decided by your two brothers!"
Paint the cake, I paint the cake fiercely!
Once the cake is rounded and plumped, the people below will work hard!
Sure enough, when they heard the words "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry" and "will be a great craftsman", the two brothers' eyes widened!
Yan Lide: "!!!"
Yan Liben: "!!!"
My dear mother, the future is extremely bright!
"As you command!"
The two of them became more energetic and shouted,
"Please rest assured, Minister, we will fulfill our mission!"
Xu Fenglei grinned and nodded approvingly.
Then he waved and said:
"gone."
