Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 697 Breaking the ground, breaking new ground!

"The imperial court implements the New Deal, the world is peaceful, and all people serve the country, so they should be treated equally."

"Nowadays, there is no school dedicated to women in the world. Jinling is the capital of the south and Zhili in the south. We should try to open a medical school for training female doctors, which will be the first of its kind in the world."

Wang Wenyan, who received the reply, did not dare to be negligent, and immediately asked the magistrate of Wu County to handle the matter: "Magistrate Cui."

"My subordinate is here." Cui Wenli, the county magistrate of Wu County, hurried forward.

Wang Wenyan said with a smile: "The governor reported the results of the province's clean-up during this period to the imperial court. The imperial court is very satisfied with the province's actions."

"Especially in Wu County, there is Dong Lian'er who lives in Goulan but has the righteousness of the family and the country in his heart, and Li Qianqian who is a benevolent doctor. After Yuan Fu knew it, he felt that he could be a model."

Cui Wenli understood that the governor specially recruited him for this purpose. Yuan Fu attached great importance to Wu County, which is a good thing!

Immediately, Cui Wenli said: "I would like to ask the governor to show you how to act as an officer."

Wang Wenyan said: "Yuan Fu wants to open a medical clinic to train female doctors in Jiangnan. The governor plans to put this place in Wu County. Do you understand?"

Cui Wenli's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Governor, I will take care of this matter as soon as I get back!"

Wang Wenyan nodded: "You should report the required money to the account. This is the imperial court's intention, and Wu County will not be solely responsible for it."

Cui Wenli said: "My lord, Wu County seized the Goulan place, and the remaining property was used to develop the people's livelihood. Now that it is undertaking a medical center, why should the provincial government pay for it? Wu County can afford it."

Wang Wenyan didn't say any more, but nodded in satisfaction.

On the way back to Wu County, Cui Wenli knew the importance of this matter. It was Yuan Fu's request, and the governor came to him directly, obviously because Li Qianqian and Dong Lian'er were in Wu County, so who owns the hospital? It goes without saying.

After returning to Wu County, Cui Wenli approached Miss Li's family in person and asked her to open a medical clinic specializing in teaching female doctors.

Thinking about the thoughts of the big man above, Cui Wenli said: "Miss Li doesn't know something. The court knows that there is a female Bodhisattva like you in Wu County. Yuanfu appreciates you very much."

"Now the imperial court is even planning to open a medical center in Wu County to train female doctors. This is a great honor. After thinking about it in this county, Miss Li is the only one who is suitable for the head of this medical center."

"Miss Li, please rest assured that the money needed to open the clinic will be paid by the county."

Hearing what her county lord said, Li Qianqian still hesitated: "The imperial court loves her deeply, and the women of the people are sincere and fearful."

"If there is an order from the imperial court, the women of the people will never refuse to do what they can do; but they will open a medical clinic, teach female doctors, and forgive the women's frank words; the medical skills of the women of the people are family medicine, not passed down by famous doctors, and there is nothing worthy of praise; What's more, the Minnv has no experience in teaching students, if this messes up the important affairs of the court, the Minnv will die."

Cui Wenli quickly said: "Miss Li, don't refuse, just listen to me."

"Although the lady has no experience in teaching students, isn't Dong Lian'er good at learning here? Dong Lian'er can be taught by the lady to become a teacher even if she has just mastered medical science, which is enough to show that the lady has this ability."

Li Qianqian explained: "That's Lian'er's own intelligence, which has little to do with Minnv's teaching."

Cui Wenli said with a smile: "Let's tell the lady, the reason why the court intends to open this clinic is entirely because of the good example of you and Dong Lian'er here."

"What the governor means is that you are very optimistic about your benevolent deeds. The Li family's medical skills are always to be carried forward. Now the court has this intention, and the governor also supports it. Miss, you open a medical center to teach women medical principles. It is also a way out for women in the world, not a guarantee."

"With the support of the imperial court, the Li family's medical skills can be carried forward, and it is not a bad idea to enter the imperial hospital again. At that time, Miss Li, you will also honor the Li family's family?"

"Besides, this woman has learned medical principles, and she will take care of sick women and pregnant women in the future, and she will be relieved of many troubles. This is a great blessing."

"This is the kindness of the court."

After listening to Cui Wenli's persuasion, Li Qianqian was silent for a moment and said: "The county lord is right. If the daughter refuses again, she will be disrespectful of etiquette. But if family medicine is passed on to the outside world easily, then the daughter is not filial. The county magistrate may wish to let the daughter of the people discuss it with my father."

Cui Wenli smiled and said: "It's natural, Ms. Li thinks about it carefully, this county has to talk to Dong Lian'er about it."

After finding Dong Lian'er who was treating female workers in the textile factory, Cui Wenli said what he wanted, and Dong Lian'er agreed without hesitation: "Since it is the imperial court's intention, the women of the people will never refuse."

Cui Wenli applauded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, Miss Dong really has a heart for the imperial court. I will ask Miss Dong to be a lobbyist for the establishment of a medical clinic."

After returning to the county office, Cui Wenli was also thinking about why the imperial court wanted to open a medical clinic dedicated to training female doctors at this time, and what was the purpose of this?
Or is there a lack of good doctors in the palace?
In fact, the county magistrate of Wu County guessed well. There is a real shortage of female doctors with good medical skills in the palace. They are all male doctors who treat the people in the palace. The difference between men and women.

If there are more female doctors in the palace, it will be easy to handle.

And this matter is not only that, it is also Zhang Haogu laying the foundation for the men and women of Ming Dynasty to go to school together, work together, and even get equal pay for equal work in the future, so that everyone in the world can be prepared.

After Li Qianqian told her father about this matter, his father was also very supportive: "Qian'er, the imperial court thinks highly of our Li family. , that is to value the Li family, this is an opportunity for the Li family."

"What's more, if it is publicized in the future, my Li family's medical skills will be famous all over the world, and you and my father and daughter will be worthy of our ancestors. Although this medical skill is passed down from our ancestors, but medical skills are used to cure diseases and save people. If you plan to use my Li family's medical skills as the foundation, carry forward a new school, and save the world, that is boundless merit."

Dong Lian'er also came to persuade her at this time: "Sister, isn't it for the sake of women all over the world to set up a medical clinic dedicated to training female doctors? Since the imperial court wants to improve the status of us women, we naturally have to prove that we are not inferior to men. Now this is an opportunity to prove that it is not only a good thing for my sister, but also a good thing for all women in the world, my sister should help my sister to open this clinic."

Listening to what her father and Dong Lianer said, Li Qianqian made up her mind to open a medical clinic for women all over the world, and teach female doctors that no matter how difficult the road ahead is, she must go on!

With the support of the Wuxian County Government, the first medical clinic in the Ming Dynasty that specialized in training female doctors was born in this way.

After the establishment of this clinic, it quickly recruited a large number of students in the boundaries of Suzhou Prefecture.

And this is actually Zhang Haogu's original intention, mainly to give these civilians or girls from difficult families a good way out. The unified standard of the medical institution will be established in all provinces and counties, and many doctors and nurses will be needed at that time. At present, these girls who are still thinking about the future in Wu County are the cornerstone of the standardization of Daming Medical Institute.

And the name Dong Lian'er was also remembered by Zhang Haogu in his heart, and she was still thinking about the world in the land of Goulan. Such a strange woman is not a special case.

I still remember that at the end of the Ming Dynasty in the previous life, those so-called prostitutes in Ming Dynasty were thousands of times stronger than some people!
For 300 years, the Ming Dynasty has raised a group of white-eyed wolves, and there is no group of strong women who understand the honor and disgrace of the family and the country.

Therefore, Zhang Haogu has a good impression of such a woman. She is humble and does not forget to worry about the country, and she has taken real actions. Some guys who keep saying that the family and the country are righteous, but are all about embezzlement, extortion, and digging the foundation of the big tree of Ming Dynasty, Compared with one, simply hang it!
"Taichong, Ningren, take a look at this excerpt." Zhang Haogu handed Wang Wenyan's excerpt to Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu.

After seeing it, the two were also full of admiration: "Knowing righteousness, neither humble nor overbearing, she is really a strange woman."

"You two should remember this name, remember it carefully, such a woman will never stop at a medical institution." Zhang Haogu said.

Seeing that Zhang Haogu valued Dong Lianer so much, Huang Zongxi couldn't help asking, "Yuanfu, do you have greater expectations for this girl?"

Zhang Haogu felt a little emotional: "General Qin is already 56 years old, what will happen when General Qin gets old?"

"Da Ming needs a new female general."

"This pavilion is just optimistic about her. If she has this intention, this pavilion is willing to give her a chance to see if she can become Liang Hongyu of Daming."

"Okay, let's not mention this matter for now, how is the situation of Mu Niu Liuma?"

Gu Yanwu said: "The bachelors of the Academy of Engineering moved a machine from Xiyuan to experiment, and there are already some results. Yuanfu, do you want to go and have a look?"

As soon as he heard that there were results, Zhang Haogu also became interested: "Then go and have a look."

When Zhang Haogu came to the Academy of Engineering, the Academy of Engineering was already ready. Song Yingxing saw Zhang Haogu approaching, stepped forward and said, "Yuanfu, the Mu Niu Liuma has been erected, and it is at the testing ground."

Zhang Haogu nodded: "Go and have a look."

When I arrived at the huge test site of the Academy of Engineering, I saw that a straight track had been laid. This is an iron track, covered with sleepers, which can be said to be a fairly standard rail.

On the rails, four carriages with wooden frames covered with iron sheets have already parked on them. Some gravel and other things have been placed in the carriages in advance, and they are waiting for the front of the carriage to be towed.

Soon, a crude locomotive with four power wheels slowly drove over and hooked up with the carriage, and a person protruded from the locomotive: "Yuansuke, it's ready."

Zhang Haogu waved his hand: "Let's start."

As the water in the boiler was boiled, the steam drove the wheels to rotate. With the sound of the whistle, the locomotive drove the carriage to start slowly, and the speed increased visible to the naked eye. In the continuous sound of the whistle and the noise of the wheels, The train moved forward at an unhurried speed.

"Good!" Zhang Haogu applauded first.

Seeing that Zhang Haogu was satisfied, Song Yingxing and other scholars followed suit and applauded.

This is Daming's wooden cow and horse. Before changing it, who would have thought that this car could run without livestock?

This locomotive looks bulky, but it has gathered the hard work of many bachelors of the Academy of Engineering. Now this locomotive is not carrying any carriages, but the dreams of the bachelors, which is the future of Daming.

Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "This wooden cow and horse can run, all the scholars have put their heart into it, now it is not appropriate to call it a wooden cow and horse, since it uses firewood and coal as fuel, why not call it a train, it is concise and easy to understand. "

"How is the speed of this train?" Zhang Haogu asked casually.

Song Yingxing said: "Yuanfu, if this train travels with the front alone, it can run sixty miles in one hour; if it carries thousands of catties of goods, it can run thirty miles in one hour; if it carries tens of thousands of catties of goods, it can run twenty miles in one hour inside."

Zhang Haogu nodded slightly: "This is the first time I started on the road, I have such a speed, not slow, not slow."

"You bachelors have lived up to His Majesty's high expectations."

"However, this speed is not enough, not fast enough, and not stable enough. You bachelors still need to work hard."

Song Yingxing said: "Yuanfu, don't worry, now that we have this train, we can improve it, and in the future both the speed and the load will be greatly improved."

Zhang Haogu encouraged the bachelors of the Academy of Engineering a few more words, and then returned to the cabinet.

After returning to Wenyuan Pavilion, Zhang Haogu's mentality was still stable, but Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu were amazed. Although they already knew that the court was studying these things, you know that the feeling is different from seeing it with your own eyes.

The big iron lump stopped there motionless, and didn't feel anything yet, but once it started, the whistle was loud and the wheels turned, and the steam monster made of steel galloped on the rails amidst the sound of the whistle, moving like an earth dragon. People were shocked.

This is a steam monster cast by craftsmen and scholars of the Ming Dynasty. It is a steel monster that does not belong to this era. It means that Daming has entered the industrial age and the steam age.

Trains are just the beginning.

Thinking about the bright future, Huang Zongxi said with emotion: "Before, students never dared to imagine that such a cumbersome monster could run."

"Without the need for animal power or manpower, it is incredible that this heavy copper and iron can be driven forward by boiling water with fire."

Gu Yanwu also smiled and said: "Yes, if those barbarians see it, I'm afraid they will be shocked to heaven."

Zhang Haogu is well-informed, and he looks very peaceful: "It's not a big deal right now. It's not as good as a person walking faster for twenty or thirty miles in one hour. There are still many areas for improvement."

"Nowadays, animal power is still the main force. This train will not be used in a year or so."

"But it's good news after all, I have to tell His Majesty."

After meeting Zhu Youxiao in Xiyuan, Zhang Haogu told Zhu Youxiao the good news. After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing and said, "It's indeed good news."

"The wooden cow and horse made of copper and iron were realized in the Tianqi Dynasty, hahahahaha, a good thing."

Zhang Haogu also said with a smile: "Da Ming has now entered into industrialization and vaporization, and the grand plan that I have conceived for His Majesty finally has some shadow."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, then frowned and said, "This train is not powered enough right now."

"Wei Banban, you go and inform the Academy of Engineering, and I will go and have a look tomorrow."

Eunuch Wei hurriedly said: "Hey, servant girl, let's go get ready."

The next day, a group of bachelors from the Academy of Engineering, who had been prepared for a long time, waited for the holy driver.

Speaking of which, as the Son of Heaven, Zhu Youxiao is also well versed in the fact that fame and tools cannot be faked. Although he does not go to the cabinet every day, he has an inner court meeting with the cabinet almost every three days. The battalion will go on inspections every now and then.

Speaking of it, this habit was left by Emperor Yong Le.

Cheng Zu, an old man who has won the country, knows the importance of military power. He patrols the Beijing camp every day, rain or shine, and so does Renxuan.

But when he came to Mingbao Zong Zhu Qizhen, he was ambitious and talented. He completely forgot how his great-grandfather, his grandfather, and his father did it. He only knows how to poach the corners of Ming Dynasty, search for people's wealth, and treat people with cronyism instead of promoting talents.
There is no need to mention what happened to the Ming Dynasty after that. In the battle of Tumubao, the elite left by the Yongle and Renxuan dynasties were wiped out. The loyal and honorable ministers died one by one, and the Ming Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline.
Even this historical experience, coupled with the teaching of Zhang Haogu, Zhu Youxiao is well aware of the importance of military power. Although he did not inspect the Beijing camp every day, he did it every three days, and sent his personal eunuch Wang Tiqian there every day. Patrol.

Not only did Zhu Youxiao go to the Beijing camp for inspections, but Zhang Haogu also went to the Beijing camp for inspections and inspections every now and then. This is how the powerful Ming court came to be.

Why did Zhang Haogu say that those corrupt officials in the south are just worms? Why is it that the government has issued a decree and the local government is conscientious in handling it?

Military power, finances, appointment, dismissal and promotion of officials are all firmly controlled by the imperial court, and it is a problem if the place can be turned upside down.

After arriving at the Academy of Engineering, looking at the bachelors of the Academy of Engineering, Zhu Youxiao waved his hands: "You are all important ministers of the country, great talents of the Ming Dynasty, so there is no need to be polite."

After helping Song Yingxing up, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Did the train run successfully yesterday?"

Song Yingxing said: "Returning to Your Majesty, the trial run of the train yesterday was very successful."

Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly: "Go and see."

When we arrived at the test site, the current test site was no longer a straight rail, but an oval track that surrounded the entire test site. The track formed a closed loop. A locomotive was pulling four carriages and was parked on the track. There were several people around. craftsmen are inspecting.

When Zhu Youxiao saw it, he joined in. He was very interested in these industrial and mechanical aspects.

Song Yingxing watched Zhu Youxiao go to work as soon as he rolled up his sleeves, and quickly dissuaded him: "Your Majesty."

But Zhu Youxiao doesn't care about this right now, he has already leaned in front of those craftsmen: "How is the inspection going?"

These craftsmen saw that the emperor had come over, and they were about to kneel down, but Zhu Youxiao stopped him with a wave: "There is no need for these red tapes."

"What's the situation with this train?"

A craftsman said: "Return to Your Majesty, the biggest problem with this train now is the lack of power."
