Daming iron-blooded Chief Assistant

Chapter 167

In March of the second year of Apocalypse, a hospital specially for women appeared in the inner city of the capital, and the doctors there were also women.

In the outer city of the capital, a hospital appeared, and the doctors in it were all women. However, this hospital did not charge money for seeing a doctor, and the poor people also gave medicines to see a doctor.

The two hospitals inside and outside are naturally Miss Su's Daming Shi Hospital.

Since the hospitals in the inner city only treat women and have the anti-inflammatory medicine such as allicin, they quickly gained a foothold, and some women have come to see the doctor because of their reputation.

As for the hospitals in the outer city, things didn't go well at first. First, the doctors and the others looked at the poor beggars with disabilities on the streets of the capital city, so they took them into the hospital.

However, these little beggars are the cash cows of the beggar gang, how can they tolerate the medical girls taking away their cash cows like this, and seeing that the hospital is full of women, they have the idea of ​​kidnapping these medical girls and selling them off first.

First, he kidnapped the man while two medical girls were out shopping, and demanded a ransom from Shi Hospital.

When Ms. Su from the inner city hospital learned that the medical girl from the outer city had been kidnapped, she asked Mr. Ma for help. Mr. Ma had already learned about Zhang Zongxian's plan, so he did not dare to neglect, and immediately asked the investigation department to find out who did it.

At this time, there were also people in the investigation department who were in the beggar gang, and quickly rescued the two medical girls, but the two medical girls had been tortured by the beggar gang.

After seeing the tragic appearance of the two medical girls, Ms. Su took the meeting place of the Beggar Gang from the investigation department, brought the medical girl to the door with a pistol, and wiped out all the high-ranking members of the Beggar Gang. As soon as it was pointed out, all the consumables for surgical experiments were pulled.

After that, Ms. Su strictly ordered the medical women to go out together, and to bring firecrackers, and to communicate with the use of firecrackers on weekdays.

As the hospital began to deliver babies for free and provided nutritious meals to the women who gave birth, the people in the capital quickly recognized the medical women in Shi Hospital and called them living bodhisattvas.

The medical girls in the inner city are so busy that they can't keep their feet on the ground. Every day, there are countless domestic servants of high-ranking officials and dignitaries waiting outside the hospital, waiting for these medical girls to go and treat their female relatives.

In the past, they were all male doctors. When treating women, they couldn't directly see the women's faces, and had to use things to "separate" them.

Generally, family members will set up gauze curtains in front of the hospital bed, and some hang curtains outside the boudoir. Doctors can check the complexion and tongue of female patients through the gauze curtains.

When taking the pulse, you should also use something to separate it. Female patients cannot have skin-to-skin contact with male doctors.

For example, the concubines in the palace are extremely guarded when they see a doctor. When Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang formulated the etiquette in June of the fifth year of Hongwu, he required: "If the concubines are sick, doctors are not allowed to enter the palace, and take medicine according to the symptoms."

The so-called "taking medicine by symptom" means that when a concubine is sick and seeks medical treatment, the doctor can only prescribe medicine according to the illness reported by the servant.If the reporter is inaccurate in description, unclear in details, or even deliberately concealed, it will easily lead to misjudgment by doctors.It's hell to see a doctor like this.

There is no problem with the generosity of men and women in medical women, and they can directly touch the patient's body.Give the patient pulse, you can also wipe the patient's private parts, and you can prescribe the right medicine.

In fact, when the hospital was first opened, there were moral gentlemen who came to the hospital door to abuse. Later, as more and more high-ranking dignitaries invited medical women to see the doctor, no one dared to abuse again.

Master Ma not only escorted the hospital, but also continued to spread the knowledge of the medical skills of the female doctors, especially focusing on Miss Su. At this time, Miss Su was already comparable to Bian Que in the capital.

Presumably it won't take long for the reputation to spread to the palace, and the next step is to slowly gain the trust of the queen.

Ever since Zhang Zongxian presented the model of the Crystal Palace, Tianqi seemed to be possessed. He couldn't put it down and studied it every day. He asked the eunuchs to carry the model and walk around the palace, trying to choose a site to build the Crystal Palace.

After weighing for a long time, the address for the construction of the Crystal Palace was placed in Xiyuan outside the Forbidden City.After the location was selected, the work started immediately. Tianqi came to supervise the work every day, and soon the 100 million taels given by Zhang Zongxian was spent.

According to the final calculation of the internal officials, it will cost at least 500 million taels of silver to complete the construction of the Crystal Palace.

Of course, we don’t need so much in reality, but who made the glass workshop belong to Wei Zhongxian, such a large piece of glass, lying to Tianqi that it is crystal, it is not easy to mine and transport.Naturally it costs a lot.

Seeing that so much silver is required, Tianqi is very embarrassed. Although there is no need to subsidize the military expenditures of the three sides of Shaanxi, more than 100 million taels of silver can be left every year, but the money is used by the cabinet to make up for holes in other places.

For example, the arrears of Beijing officials over the years, as well as the "rice offering" of one tael of silver per month for the grannies.The cabinet of the Ming Dynasty was most concerned about money, for fear that the emperor would do whatever he wanted when he had money.

It's very difficult to get the money out, and Tianqi doesn't want to follow Wanli and send people down to collect mining taxes. After all, his father was abolished as soon as he came to power, so it's not easy for him to slap his father in the face.

So Tianqi thought of the 100 million taels that Zhang Zongxian sent him. Since Zhang Zongxian can make the three sides of Shaanxi do not need the Ministry of Households to transfer silver taels, and can collect more money, then if the nine sides are like this, wouldn’t it be enough for a year? Save a Crystal Palace.

The more Tianqi thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, anyway, Zhang Zongxian was sent by Emperor Zhenwu to protect Daming.He is capable of handling affairs, and knows how to be sympathetic to him, and often gives him gifts.Unlike those civil servants who know against him as a whole.

After the decision was made, Apocalypse asked Wei Zhongxian to start building momentum, and arranged for someone to propose that Zhang Zongxian supervise the military affairs of the seven frontiers.

Wei Zhongxian must be very attentive when working for his nephew. After all, the glass workshop is making money every day. Now that every family in the capital is richer, it depends on whose home has more glass. If someone visits and sees the house, they still use it Paper windows will be laughed at.

Soon the civil servants who took refuge in Wei Zhongxian proposed that Zhang Zongxian should control the military affairs of the Seven Fronts on the grounds that Zhang Zongxian's reform of the Three Frontiers in Shaanxi had saved the Ming Dynasty millions of military expenses, and hand over everything except guarding against the establishment of slaves in Liaodong and Jizhou. Give Zhang Zongxian restraint.

How could the cabinet allow Zhang Zongxian to manage so many places? The three sides in Shaanxi are already Zhang Zongxian's henchmen. If he controls the seven sides, it means that half of Ming's soldiers and horses will be in his hands.

However, Apocalypse was determined to save money to build the Crystal Palace. He first dismissed several opposing officials, and then asked the cabinet to reconsider.

The cabinet saw that Tianqi was determined to let Zhang Zongxian control the nine sides, so he proposed to remove Zhang Zongxian from the position of governor of Shaanxi and three sides, but only the governor of Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, and Piantouguan Town.

Tianqi also wanted Zhang Zongxian to recover the snow demon from Ha Seal, and besides, if someone else was appointed as the governor of Shaanxi, how could he give money to the internal funds, it would only make these civil servants cheaper.
