Two days later, Xiang Nan’s Medical School, Yixiaotang and Shiwei Tianjun successfully found their stores.
Yixiaotang and Food is the Sky are still the same as before in Cangzhou, door to door. As for the medical school, it is next to Yixiao Hall, which facilitates timely rescue of patients.
After the store was found, preparations for decoration began immediately.
The medical school was named and inscribed by Prince Jing as [Pede Medical School], hoping that it would cultivate more good doctors with medical skills and ethics.
Peide Medical School immediately began enrolling students, with a limit of forty students and an annual tuition fee of one hundred taels per person. That was four thousand taels of silver a year, which was considered a huge sum of money at that time.
Xilaile and Hu Suhua worked hard for half a lifetime and only accumulated more than one hundred taels of silver.
Because of Xiang Nan's reputation, doctors from all over the capital have heard of him and know that his medical skills are superb and unfathomable. He also knew many long-lost medical books and had extensive knowledge, so they all came to sign up one after another.
Among them, there are nephews and nephews of the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, as well as descendants of the famous traditional Chinese medicine families in the capital. There are even deceitful and deceitful doctors who want to study medicine so that they can defraud money in the name of miracle doctors in the future.
All in all, from the day of enrollment, the number of applicants has exceeded 500.
…
Faced with so many applicants, Xiang Nan could not accept them all.
The first is to eliminate those scammers. This step is very easy. Many scammers can’t even recite the Tangtou song and can figure it out in just one try.
Then test the knowledge of hearing, asking, listening, acupuncture and massage, drug identification, pill processing and many other subjects. In this way, another group of people were eliminated.
Even so, there are still nearly a hundred people competing for the spots of the forty people.
It turns out that all the imperial doctors and major aristocratic families understand that this opportunity is rare.
Xiang Nan accepts disciples this year, but he may not accept them next year. After all, the court has been changing over the years, and nothing remains the same.
Therefore, they all want to learn the best and most medical skills in the shortest possible time, so as to help the family pass on their skills. Therefore, those sent are basically family elites with superb medical skills, smart and eager to learn.
This is similar to corporate competition. When sending commercial spies to steal secrets, it is natural to choose spies who are smart, capable and familiar with the business. Otherwise, if you send a bastard to study for ten years before becoming an apprentice, everything will be delayed.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to use his last resort - comparing family backgrounds to decide who would be selected.
Whoever has a deeper background, higher status, and greater power will be admitted first.
Although doing so would be somewhat unfair to other students. But there is nothing that can be done. Throughout the ages, powerful people have always enjoyed more preferential treatment.
This has not changed until modern times.
…
"It seems Xilaile is really going to do something big." Wang Tianhe paid close attention to the enrollment of Peide Medical School. Seeing that so many colleagues from Taipei Hospital and Chinese medicine families sent their children to apply, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Although Xiang Nan does not require them to become apprentices, as long as they pass on their skills, there will be a lasting relationship.
If something happens to him, his students may not care about him. And the power of these students together is extraordinary. Even he, Wang Tianhe, had to avoid his edge and did not dare to attack him directly.
"It seems so." Lu Zhong nodded and said, "Medical schools, pharmacies, and restaurants are all undergoing decoration and construction. It seems like they are really going to do something big."
"You are such a waste, can't you think of a way to blast him out of Yanjing City?!" Wang Tianhe glared at him.
"Master Wang, please don't get angry. I'm thinking about it day and night, wishing I could kick him out, but I can't find a chance." Lu Zhong said aggrievedly.
"Getting angry?!" Wang Tianhe was suddenly startled, then his eyes lit up and he glanced at Lu Zhong.
"Getting angry?!" Lu Zhong blinked, wondering what he meant.
Wang Tianhe immediately glared at him again and emphasized again, "Get angry!!"
Lu Zhong thought about it carefully and then suddenly realized, "Master Wang, I understand."
…
Large fence at the front door.
The plaques for Peide Medical School, Yixiaotang and Food is Heaven have been hung up, and they can open for business on an auspicious day.
"Oh, old man, I really didn't expect that our Yixiaotang could have such a big reputation. You are so impressive!" Hu Suhua said, looking at the huge medicine shop.
The appearance of Cangzhou was more than half smaller than the current one.
"It's all a reward from the prince, otherwise we wouldn't be able to open such a big store ourselves." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Come on, let's go see Shiweitian opposite."
Hu Suhua nodded and went to the opposite door with Xiang Nan and Sai Xishi.
"Lady boss, Mr. Xi, Mrs. Xi, hello!" the waiter greeted with a smile.
After the popularity of food in the capital began, the chefs and waiters from Cangzhou also came to Beijing.
"Mr. Xi and Mrs. Xi, we have to change it in the future. This is the eldest man, this is the eldest grandma, call me the second grandma." Sai Xishi said with a smile.
"Hey, that's right." The waiter agreed with a smile.
"Sister, you are so good at eating food." Hu Suhua looked at it and praised it with a smile.
After spending this time together, she discovered that Sai Xishi was actually a good person. He is smart, diligent, considerate, and generous, and he has no intention of competing with her for favor. He always stands on her side and talks.
Therefore, her relationship with Sai Xishi is getting better and better. Although they can't be said to be as close as sisters, they are already much stronger than before when they would pinch each other and fight like black-eyed chickens.
"Thank you sister for the compliment." Sai Xishi smiled.
…
At this moment, a man passed by carrying a sack.
"Hey, Boss Chen~" the waiter greeted him immediately upon seeing him.
The man looked up and saw the waiter. When he looked inside again, he saw Xiang Nan, Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi. He was so happy that he ran into the store.
"Xi Langzhong, Mrs. Xi, Boss Sai... oh, I really didn't expect to meet here." The man smiled. He was the drug dealer Chen Pi who was knocked out by Meng Qing's Heqi before and was later revived by Xiang Nan.
"Actually, I have always wanted to find Xi Langzhong and express my gratitude in person." Chen Pi smiled again, "You have dealt with Meng Qinghe and brought us nothing but harm to Cangzhou. On behalf of all the medicine merchants in Cangzhou, I would like to give you a big gift."
As he said this, he would kneel down and kowtow.
Meng Qinghe colluded with the government in Cangzhou, bullied the market, and monopolized the medicinal materials market.
All medicinal merchants in Cangzhou must sell to him first after receiving goods from elsewhere. Other herbal medicine shops did not dare to accept other people's medicines without his advice.
Otherwise, he would frame him up and ask the county boss to close the shop and arrest the person.
Because of this, the herbal medicine shops in Cangzhou City were bankrupted and closed down by him, causing countless losses.
After Meng Qinghe monopolized the market, he aggressively lowered the price of medicinal materials. He only offered twenty taels of medicinal materials worth sixty taels, causing everyone to lose profits.
After collecting the medicinal materials, he not only sold them out at a high price. Moreover, the medicines were adulterated and killed many people. It can be said that he has become a great harm to Cangzhou, and the people all wish that he would die early.
It's a pity that he has the support of the government, and the people can't do anything about him. Well now, Meng Qinghe was imprisoned for selling fake medicinal materials and died within a day.
There are no more drug tyrants in Cangzhou, and the people's lives will be better.
