No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 988 The Sheep Being Fleeced
After returning to the Sun Mansion at night, Sun Quan went to complain to Ou Mengmeng, feeling deeply that his mother's death was too worthless.
Afterwards, Ou Mengmeng was silent for a long time after hearing what Sun Quan said. The imperial physician had never said that she was wrong to take the pills before, and she didn't even give her the medicinal food. So it was a good thing to kill the imperial physician. In her opinion, the evil of the imperial physician was even worse than that alchemist.
She looked through her memories and knew that the alchemist was very confident in the pills he made, and he also took them himself. They firmly believed that they could achieve the unity of man and nature and immortality through these elixirs.
Sun Quan's handling method was also good, very quick, ruthless and accurate, and protected the reputation of the Sun family and Mrs. Wu. We arrested people because you were doing evil outside in the name of the Sun family. This was a personal behavior and had nothing to do with the alchemist group. We narrowed the scope as much as possible. However, Ou Mengmeng was not satisfied with this result.
"Mother, I know you are very sad for your country, but things have changed. It would be better not to harm your body." Sun Quan had no idea what Ou Mengmeng was thinking, and instead comforted Ou Mengmeng.
"Really? At that time, we didn't know that it was poison. So those doctors at that time really couldn't stay in the mansion anymore." Ou Mengmeng nodded.
"Yes, but we have to wait a little longer. My son is going to go back and open the National Medical Clinic. I will send these people over and look for another opportunity." Sun Quan nodded. Even if the old lady didn't say anything, he couldn't let those people go.
What could Ou Mengmeng say? She just patted Sun Quan's hand to express her "relief". Now that she thinks about it, the love between them is really fake.
For example, when he was diagnosed with poisoning, he was only angry at the time, but once he knew about the elixir, he left immediately without even asking how to cure the poison, and he never came back to ask again afterwards.
Coming in at this time, it was just to talk about the follow-up of the Taoist priest. Or, to seek comfort. And Ou Mengmeng really couldn't lose her temper for this, of course, there was no need. After all, they were not her biological children, so it was good enough to be like this.
"Well, these people probably think that since the Imperial Physician has not said anything, they will not cause trouble for themselves. So their medical ethics are not good enough, but their crime is not punishable by death. Lord Zhang and I have some ideas about the National Medical Hall. Can you help me take a look?"
Ou Mengmeng hurriedly handed the school regulations that he and Zhang Zhongjing had repeatedly improved to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan didn't look closely, but he knew the general idea. He saw that the old lady actually wanted to raise orphans first. Regardless of whether they were male or female, they would be taught to read, grow herbs, collect herbs, and make medicine. Isn't this too much? The main thing is, how big a place would this take, and how much money would it cost?
"You really are. I wanted to bring these orphans in. Actually, I was thinking that with years of wars, I heard that nine out of ten houses in some rural areas are empty. You fight without money, food, or people, right? These orphans have to survive, whether they want to learn a skill or do something else. It's better for us to have people than for them to have no people. People are always the first priority." Ou Mengmeng set the tone first, and seeing that Sun Quan was still hesitant, she quickly increased the stakes.
"Mencius said that the right time, the right place, and the right people are the most important. The right time is not as important as the right place, and the right place is not as important as the people. In the end, the affairs of the world are still about people. You said that you helped the war orphans. Would the officers and soldiers who helped you fight have any thoughts in their hearts? Would they think you are a wise leader who can be trusted? Although it is not possible to win the hearts of the whole country, your reputation will gradually surpass Liu Bei."
"Mother, that's right, but I'm afraid the money for running the school..." Sun Quan nodded hurriedly, but still hesitated. People are of course the first priority, but he didn't have so much money. Money to recruit soldiers! "Didn't you rob the Taoist temple? Go back and post a notice. This money will be used to run a school. Enroll orphans for free. Their land in the suburbs can be used as school property, and the income can be used to support the school." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly.
Sun Quan nodded. This would be very good for the Sun family's reputation, and would also let people know that we didn't copy the Taoist temple for money.
"If we only open a school in Nanxu, what about other places?" Sun Quan thought, if we only open a school in Nanxu, what about other places in Jiangdong? At this time, the governors of various places are not easy to deal with. If we don't open a school, they will not be able to answer to the people. If we open a school, they will ask where the money comes from. We can't let all the places raid the alchemists' den, right?
"The orphans in Nanxu are learning medicine, just as a model. Then, each place will be divided into different areas. There are so many counties in Dongwu. You should adapt to local conditions. Does your army need a large number of weapons, food, and uniforms? If there are many girls in a certain place, you can put the uniforms there, gather the girls together, teach them to read and write, and then learn needlework. In this way, widows and girls can survive, and your army's uniforms can also be guaranteed? You always have to spend money. Spending money on your own territory, raising children, and cultivating a group of loyal soldiers is a hundred benefits without any harm."
"Why do we need to read and learn to read?" In principle, Sun Quan agreed to let these orphans have a place to eat and learn some useful skills. But he thought it was unnecessary to require everyone to read and learn to read, including girls.
"Today, when I saw Mr. Zhang, I felt that no matter who you are, you must first read the books of sages. Mr. Zhang's lifelong wish is to write books and establish his own theories. He sits in the clinic to see patients in order to accumulate more cases to prove his own theories.
He didn't mind passing on his medical skills to future generations. This is the open-mindedness of scholars. You see, why didn't the former imperial physician do the same as Mr. Zhang? It was because he was a doctor, not a real scholar, and he didn't have a big picture view.
If you master one principle, you will master all principles. I believe that whether it is leading troops or fighting a war, people who know how to read are much better than those who don't. Reading and writing are actually the first step to all the paths in the world.
Son, if you give them ten years, they might give you a miracle.” Ou Mengmeng was very emotional.
This is her sincere words. What she has been doing all along is basic education. Basic education is the cornerstone of everything. How can we talk about development without getting rid of illiteracy first?
Including the years in the Siheyuan, she actually spent most of her time helping illiterate people get rid of illiteracy, pulling them out of their own little world little by little, and letting them open their eyes to see the world.
Sun Quan listened to her. That's right. He didn't dare to touch the alchemists because he was afraid of losing the support of the people. Now I have given him a great idea. If he raises these children and trains them well, they will be his own direct descendants. It doesn't cost much money. If they can really learn skills, it will be a great help to the local economy. Fighting is also about money. If the local economy is developed, it will be a great help to the army. He thanked her and went out with the charter.
Ou Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, things had come to this point and were mostly successful. In fact, she didn't care whether it could be implemented in the entire Jiangdong area.
She is already satisfied with being able to run a medical class. As for other places, she is just making suggestions. If it works, it will be better. If it doesn't, she will forget it. (End of this chapter)
