Reincarnated Bamboo Rat Starts Extreme Survival

Chapter 280 Bell’s plan to build cheap medical care

"Principal Bell, there is a question I don't understand. Why should we consider treating an ordinary city guard? An ordinary mid-level soldier is not worth our energy."

This group of lecturers understood the importance of simplifying the basics of magic, but they didn't quite understand why they were asked to follow this magic framework to build a standard targeted treatment process.

Once the basic framework is in place, these things can be left to the front-line mages and front-line healers to do it themselves, allowing those front-line treatment professionals to tinker with healing magic according to the actual situation.

"Magic is not something to be shelved on the shelf, but something to be used to benefit people.

You are lecturers at Chiguang University, and it is normal for you to enjoy generous benefits at Chiguang University and to continuously improve your research and improve yourself.But while improving yourself, I hope you will look more at those forgotten corners. There are still many people who are illiterate and many people living in misery.

Don't forget, the construction of Chiguang University relies on city taxation, and the funds used to study magic theory also come from city taxation. The wealth of Chishui City can not only be fully supported by one or a few core commodities, but also Take the contributions of ordinary people as a matter of course. "

Regarding some of the lecturers' confusions, Bell said silently, and then simultaneously arranged three modification plans for [Simple Radar Installation], waiting for the lecturers to complete them.

Bell wants to use standard, cheaper systematic medical care to allow residents within Chishui City to enjoy cheap medical services.

In fact, the level of medical care in this world is not bad. Broken limbs can be repaired casually, and liver and lung cancers can be cured.

Before Bell's reincarnation, the incurable diseases were not a big problem in the face of magic. Malignant tumors could be re-treated into normal tissues through the power of healing magic.

The only problem is that the cost of treatment is very expensive, so expensive that ordinary families cannot accept it.

Take Chishui City as an example. There are currently 31 registered low-level professionals, 5 mid-level professionals, and about 6000 high-level professionals in the city.

The total value of a family composed entirely of low-level life professionals is only about fifteen gold coins in a year. At this time, excluding the family expenses during the year, the remaining money can be about ten gold coins.

It seems that there is quite a lot of money left over, but in fact the money is not enough at all. The tuition fee for the Music Academy in Cangxing City is ten gold coins for one semester.

It is difficult for families with low-level living professionals to provide a promising child with mediocre talent. After all, the savings they have saved for more than ten years will be completely used up when their children study, and it is ugly. produce results.

Don't regard Edu or Bell, or even the student teachers at Chiguang University as universal cases. They are all outstanding talents with good talents.

The life trajectory of ordinary people is to become an apprentice in a life-related profession as a teenager, then pass a low-level professional assessment as an adult, and finally find a job to make a living.

It's not easy to get as good as the weaver Rigo. If Rigo didn't have a wife who was very capable of fighting, it would be enough to give him a headache to deal with problems during the holidays.

The treatment profession has a high status in this world, because the treatment professions with some reputation all start out as mid-level professionals, and the treatment profession is more precious than the combat and life professions.

In some remote areas, intermediate combat professionals are called masters by people in the same village.

The training cycle for healing professionals is very long, and the cost of training is also very high. Naturally, their skills will not be sold cheaply.

An apprentice would have to pay five or six gold coins to learn a trade from his master for four months. In front of the doctor, he would ask you to vomit that many gold coins in one day.

For many people, the clinics of therapeutic professionals are dangerous places that should not be visited. It is simply a place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones.

Some therapists have just touched it a few times, but even before starting treatment, the examination fee has already reached more than ten gold coins.

The sky-high price of medical treatment has not caused any serious medical troubles in this world. The reason is that the doctors here are not so cowardly.

As healers, regardless of their individual strength, their power of connections is extremely amazing. A famous doctor is very popular among the adventurer group, and knowing a high-level adventurer can solve a lot of problems.

The long-term existence of this situation eventually formed an invisible barrier among human groups, and thus class was born.

Only people with a certain social status and personal strength dare to take their families to visit famous doctors.

The reason why Chiguang University founded by Bell caused such a big social sensation was not only because of the emergence of a single university for high-level professionals, but also because of the rise of a large number of supporting schools.

The chaotic professional guilds in Chishui City were unified and reorganized into six primary schools and two middle schools to teach teenagers.

At the same time, night schools with extremely low registration fees were also established in vacant warehouses in the city. Many citizens who had learned a trade but were actually still illiterate actively participated in it.

There is no way, the tuition fees required by the various schools opened in Chishui City are too low, only one-twentieth of the original vocational guild tuition.

Bell used Chishui City's city treasury and tax revenue as a backing to directly lower the price of basic education. For most people, Bell gave them the opportunity to change their family's destiny.

The interests involved behind the use of tax as a backstop are extremely complex, and this cannot be summarized by Chishui City being wealthy enough.

You must know that the main sources of tax revenue are those large chambers of commerce, those old-school shops, and those high-level adventurers. The number of these people is less than one-fiftieth of the total population of Chishui City, but the taxes paid account for 60.00% of the taxes in Chishui City. %.

Taxation is part of their voice. With their strong individual strength, unique positions in the city, and even the ability to create some scarce resources, these people have a loud voice in the city.

In terms of education, without the existence of Chiguang University, an institution that is extremely beneficial to them, and without the star-level lecturers invited by Bell as a reassurance, these people would not be generally resistant to educational reform.

Bell's ability to handle education reform is already an astonishing feat in the eyes of other city managers.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that allowing all young people of school age in the city to obtain a good education will significantly improve the overall strength of a city in the long run.

But what everyone knows, no one has ever been able to turn it into reality, which just shows how difficult it is to accomplish it.

Just like the city guard knight who gave up treating himself for the sake of his child, he could spend the rest of his life paralyzed in bed until he died for the sake of his child's future.

So how come professionals who have mastered advanced knowledge don't hide their secrets for the sake of their children? For some people, craftsmanship is passed down from male to female, and never to outsiders. "The problem of changing medical care is much more complicated than education."

Bell sighed. Education was still subtle in general. He used city taxes to cover the costs. Most people did not feel that it offended their own interests, and the plan could still be implemented as planned.

But medical care is different. The cost of reforming medical care is several times that of education. Moreover, once the first round of investment is started, subsequent investments must be continuously increased, and there is no way to stop, otherwise the plan will collapse completely.

Even if Bell used his memories before reincarnation, he still couldn't find a good enough solution.

"Cheap medical treatment will directly infringe on the interests of the original therapy professionals. Once their connections become entangled, there will be no end. Using the connections of those patients to fight the connections of the healers? That is a complete joke..."

Bell analyzed the possibility of pulling one faction to fight another, but ultimately concluded that it would not work.

The existence of magic will basically not appear. People in high positions are just like ordinary people, suffering from terminal diseases that cannot be treated.

There are real class barriers between those who cannot afford treatment and those who have good medical conditions. Bell wants to give ordinary people the right to be treated, which is a very abstract idea in itself.

The professional guild system has been developed for many years. The warrior professional guild has promoted to civilians that teenagers should eat more meat, eggs and milk, and adults can improve their physical fitness through proper training. The basic propaganda of other professional guilds is also quite good.

Bell has no room to promote basic medical knowledge. The health awareness here is very avant-garde.

Moreover, Bell himself did not have very professional knowledge in the field of healing. If he wanted to cure diseases and save people, he would still have to rely on magic.

A standardized magic treatment plan was an idea that Bell came up with to solve the problem.

He wants to train a large number of magic doctors who can cure most common diseases. These magic doctors are expected to fluctuate around the level of mid-level professionals.

For magic doctors who have reached the intermediate professional level, Bell will arrange them in the city and open a special hospital to receive a large number of patients.

Magic doctors who have not reached the intermediate professional assessment have two employment directions:

The first is to become a professional family doctor, whose main role is to solve some minor diseases, prevent serious diseases, and sign contracts with families in a region.

The second is to leave Chishui City to practice medicine while traveling, which is equivalent to a barefoot doctor, practicing medicine in some rural areas around Chishui City and even further away.

The fees charged by newly opened hospitals and doctors trained in the parade will be greatly reduced. Bell is prepared to control the cost of treatment to one-tenth of the market price, or even lower.

"But using city taxes to fill the sinkhole of universal medical care will soon cause Chishui City to go bankrupt. Therefore, a systematic treatment plan must be developed, and then cheap drugs must be researched..."

Reducing costs and increasing efficiency is an unbreakable truth. A systematic treatment plan allows treating doctors to quickly screen out the cause of the disease and directly treat it with a systematic treatment method. Only small modifications are needed according to the specific situation of the patient. Enough.

The cost of time spent by doctors is reduced, and the cost of treatment is also reduced.

At the same time, this standard set of treatment plans is easier to learn than traditional magic treatment methods, and it can quickly and batch train a large number of treatment professionals.

If the costs in these two fields drop, and Chishui City's taxes are used to cover part of the cost, the cost of a diagnosis and treatment will be much lower.

Then there are medicines. The application of magic in the field of treatment is extremely outrageous. Let alone curing cancer, as long as the right medicine is used, it can be done by cutting out the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys and growing them again.

But medicine is a very mysterious thing. Medicines that can be effective in the field of magical healing are usually rare treasures that grow in dangerous places.

It is difficult to obtain these rare treasures. Although they have powerful healing effects, they are also priceless things, which will increase the cost of treatment to an astonishing degree.

For a big shot to treat an illness, he needs a high-end doctor to make a diagnosis, and then he needs a powerful adventure group to go to a specific dangerous place to obtain special medicines to participate in the treatment. It is impossible for ordinary people to have this set of benefits.

"It is not easy to find substitutes in the field of medicines. Countless people have tried to cultivate special medicinal materials artificially before me, especially those in the agricultural profession, but they have not achieved much results so far. Magical synthesis of medicines also requires understanding of medicinal properties. and cost, I don’t understand this field, is there anyone else in Chishui City who can delve into this field..."

The difficulty of substitutability in the pharmaceutical field gave Bell a headache.

The best alternative method he currently has is to set up a parallel subject in addition to the magic potion course, allowing people to specialize in the preparation of occult potions, and ultimately provide cheap treatment through occultism.

But this method itself is also very abstract. It is impossible to find a substitute for medicine in the normal process, let alone using more abstract mysticism to find a substitute.

This damn thing, Bell, has a silver-white beard that is comparable to the [Philosopher's Stone], and he hasn't even started yet, so he doesn't know anyone else.

"Let's take our time, first build the basic framework of a low-cost medical system bit by bit, and then slowly allow everyone to enjoy medical benefits. Education and medical care must be focused on both."

Under Bell's will, development plans for medical projects slowly unfolded.

There is a brand new project research institute in Chiguang University. Some disabled veterans in Chishui City were invited to this research institute to start rehabilitation training for old diseases.

An elective course named [Introduction to Occultism] also quietly appeared in the elective courses of Chiguang University. This course, taught by Bell himself, caused quite a stir among the students of Chishui City, but in the end the students who came to class Not many.

Because before teaching, Bell will check the students' occult compatibility based on the knowledge given by the fellow students. Those with low compatibility are not allowed to take such abstract courses, so as not to affect the students' subsequent development.

While teaching and launching more research projects, Bell's high-speed rail plan also entered the preparation stage.

With the research on [World Stone], his mastery of the rules of blocks has improved to a higher level, and he is fully capable of developing a high-speed railway that can operate stably.
