After doing a few things at once, Zhu Youdong felt a little complacent. Seeing Tan Shuanghua coming in, seeing Zhu Youdong happy, he asked, "Why are you so happy today?" Is there any happy event? ”

Zhu Youdong said: "Just now I merged several large pharmacies in Chongqing into the Huimin Medical Bureau, so that it will be convenient for the people to see a doctor in the future, and they can also store medicines in various places." ”

Tan Shuanghua said: "Huimin Medical Bureau? Is there any difference with Huimin Pharmacy? Zhu Youdong was stunned for a moment and asked, "What Huimin Pharmacy?" Has anyone formed one? As he spoke, he looked at Du Dehong and the others, and when Du Dehong saw Zhu Youdong coming over, he immediately lowered his head and did not answer.

Tan Shuanghua's expression was also condensed, and he said, "You don't know? Since the time of the Song and Yuan dynasties, the government has set up Huimin pharmacies in various places to treat the poor people. I also followed this system in the Ming Dynasty, but no one paid attention to it later, and now the pharmacies in various places have long been abandoned. ”

Zhu Youdong thought that this was his own original, but who knew that someone had already used it. No wonder when he said it, Du Dehong and others had strange expressions, and they said that they would not make money when they heard it. At the time, I thought that these people didn't understand, but now I know that I am out of the West.

But now in front of everyone, it's hard to show cowardice. glared at Tan Shuanghua and forcibly excused: "The Huimin Medical Bureau I am talking about is different from the previous pharmacies. The pharmacy we have now set up is to produce finished medicines, as well as compilation, treatment of various diseases, prevention of plagues in various places, and collection of famous prescriptions. ”

Now Zhu Youdong is shaking out all the things he can think of. Du Dehong and the others were terrified when they heard it, and no one thought that Zhu Youdong would casually say a pharmacy, and then he would have to do so many things. And this is not a trivial matter, it may take years, or even decades.

Tan Shuanghua on the side listened to it, and his eyes were shining. Such a big thing, can it still be involved in the government, if you do it well, isn't it also a big deal? Zhu Youdong was still talking about what he wanted to do, and when he saw that everyone was shocked by him, he said more and more angrily: "Not only these, but also the prevention of some diseases for women, from pregnancy, fetal rearing, to final delivery, there must be detailed rules and requirements to ensure the safety of adults and children." ”

Tan Shuanghua followed this statement, and Li Xiao's persuasion that day dispelled Tan Shuanghua's idea of leading the army. But Queen Ma's deeds stimulated her heart to make a career. Li Xiao chose to help the soldiers eliminate their worries, and now after listening to Zhu Youdong say so much, he also realizes that this is a great achievement.

Zhu Youdong said to himself: "In short, I, the Huimin Medical Bureau, not only want to benefit the people of the world, but also to achieve a medical masterpiece and leave a name for eternity." It can not only include the names of the ancestors, but also develop new prescriptions. Tan Shuanghua immediately said: "Okay, I'll do this thing, and these doctors will be handed over to me to manage." ”

Zhu Youdong's cowhide was just blown, and now he was dumbfounded when he heard that Tan Shuanghua was going to manage it. Zhu Youdong looked at Lin Asan and then at Tan Shuanghua, speechless for a while. In the whole lobby, a few people, you look at me, I look at you.

Tan Shuanghua's sudden intervention caught Zhu Youdong a little off guard. But thinking about it, it has nothing to do with the imperial court, and if Tan Shuanghua can be distracted, there is nothing bad. thought for a while: "It's not impossible for you to manage, it's just that I've already asked Lin Asan to do it." ”

Lin Asan was unwilling to care about the woman's childbirth, and he always felt that this matter was a bit unlucky. At this time, I heard that I could avoid this errand, and immediately said: "Master Hou, no problem, as long as Miss Tan is willing, I can let this errand." ”

Tan Shuanghua said: "Yes, Lin Asan himself is willing to let it out, what can't he do." Lin Asan was willing, but Du Dehong and the others next to him were unwilling. Let a few old men who are dozens of years old listen to a woman's arrangement, and under the influence of the long-term idea of male superiority and inferiority, these people are suddenly unwilling.

Wan Zhengping said: "Master Hou, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, Miss Tan is a daughter, how can she show her face outside." What's more, Miss Tan's identity is not ordinary, and she must pay more attention to her etiquette. ”

Wan Zhengping didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning is also obvious, you Tan Shuanghua is not only a daughter, but also Zhu Youdong's woman, you are so Meng Lang, are you too unconcerned about your own behavior.

Tan Shuanghua saw that he was finally looking for something to do again, and he was about to be disrupted by these people again, so he suddenly became a little anxious. Zhu Youdong also felt that Tan Shuanghua had something to do well, so as not to think of leading the army again, but it would be troublesome. He said: "Otherwise, let the women's childbirth, gynecology, and pediatrics be released, and Lin Asan will still preside over the affairs of the Huimin Medical Bureau." ”

Hearing that he didn't have to be controlled by a woman, the other two agreed. Du Dehong and Wan Zhengping wanted to object, but just the two of them couldn't make any difference. At the moment, seeing that Zhu Youdong had already decided, he would no longer argue, so he had to admit that he was unlucky. Tan Shuanghua saw that he had something to do, and of course he had no other opinions, so the matter was settled.

When they saw that the matter was settled, they were about to leave. Lin Asan said: "Master Hou, how can I be regarded as a yamen, and I will be on an errand there in the future?" Zhu Youdong said: "Of course it's in the medical bureau, where else do you want to go?" If you don't go to the medical office, how can you know the prescription and the things about prevention? ”

Lin Asan said again: "What about the Patent Division?" Zhu Youdong said: "You first set up the medical bureau, and I will let people do it in two days about the patent." ”

After sending Lin Asan and the others away, Zhu Youdong complained to Wang Jincai: "I didn't feel troublesome before, but now I feel that there are too many things to do." And when the personnel are about to use it, they feel that there are few people around. Our people are only able to fight, and there is no one to help with political governance. ”

Wang Jincai did not have any good suggestions in the face of Zhu Youdong's complaints. I had to comfort: "Hou Ye rest assured, as long as Hou Ye is in charge of the country, he is the Son of Heaven." As long as you open Enke once, the scholars of the world will serve Hou Ye, and when the time comes, Hou Ye will not have to work so hard. ”

Zhu Youdong was stunned, he had never thought of Enke. Because in his heart, the people who came out of the imperial examination really have nothing powerful except for party struggle. Now that he was reminded by Wang Jincai, he found that now he has no other way than to use the imperial examination to select talents.

Zhu Youdong wrote down this matter first, and said to Wang Jincai: "Well, I'll write down this matter first, and I want to let Wang Lao do another thing by keeping Wang Lao here." ”

Wang Jincai suddenly got up and said, "Please ask Master Hou to command." Zhu Youdong said: "You sit down first." When you came, didn't you say that our soldiers, after receiving their salaries, went to buy food immediately? Since these soldiers did not deposit silver taels at all, why didn't we just give them bills that could be exchanged for food? ”

Wang Jincai didn't understand what Zhu Youdong meant, and said, "Bills, can this work?" Zhu Youdong said: "Anyway, after they received their military salaries, they went directly to exchange for food." Just make it clear to them that there's nothing wrong with that. ”

Wang Jincai still disagreed: "This bill is just a piece of paper, how can people believe in it, and don't make trouble when the time comes." ”

Just as Hong Yuao came in, he heard Wang Jincai say something about a piece of paper, and said, "Master Hou wants to issue treasure banknotes?" Zhu Youdong asked about the treasure money and said, "It's almost the same, but it's also a little different." ”

Hong Yuao saw that Zhu Youdong really wanted to issue treasure money, and immediately said: "Master Hou can't, I have also issued treasure money in the Ming Dynasty, but these are all things that compete with the people for profit, and every time they issue treasure money, it will make the people miserable." ”

Zhu Youdong was used to paper money, so he asked: "How can this be a competition for profit with the people?" Treasure banknotes are easy to carry and easy to hide, so they are not remembered. Why did it make the people miserable? ”

Hong Yuao said: "This treasure banknote is just a piece of paper, and the court continues to distribute it, who wants to keep this useless waste paper." Every time Daming issued treasure money, it didn't take long for no one to ask for it at all. The imperial court collects taxes and cannot recognize this treasure banknote, and a large amount of treasure money in the hands of the people is worthless. ”

Only then did Zhu Youdong understand that in the past, the imperial court only used this thing to exchange real money and silver for the people, but when the people took the treasure money to pay taxes to the imperial court, the imperial court did not recognize it. still keeps exchanging treasure money for people's money, isn't this the same as robbing it openly?

Zhu Youdong explained: "It's different, the bills we issue now are only issued between the army and officials, and if this bill is written for one or two silvers, we will recognize one or two silvers, and of course there will be no competition with the people." ”

Hong Yuao said: "If the people all take paper to pay taxes and exchange silver taels with us, then the government will also be full of these bills." ”

Zhu Youdong said: "What are you afraid of? Even if there are only these bills in the government, as long as the people agree, we can still issue these bills to the people, isn't it the same as real money? ”

Hong Yuao saw that Zhu Youdong was so sure, and it was not easy to hit directly now, so he said: "If it is really as the Hou Ye expected, of course it is the best." ”

Zhu Youdong said to Wang Jincai: "Elder Wang, you should now ask the people of the Dadu Governor's Mansion to prepare this silver bill, and take advantage of this time to supervise the country, and distribute these bills to the soldiers in the form of rewards." That way, they won't be too worried and refuse to use it. When he does get the grain, and then we change it to the bill, they won't be objecting. ”

Wang Jincai and Hong Yuao listened to Zhu Youdong's method, and both said: "Okay, first send it in the form of a reward, even if it can't be exchanged, they have no resistance, so that the soldiers can accept it even more." ”

Zhu Youdong said: "But there is another point, that is, this bill should also pay attention to anti-counterfeiting, to prevent someone from creating fake bills to get by." Wang Jincai said: "But we don't have these methods now." ”

Hong Yuao said: "Why don't you let the people of a few money houses in the city make this anti-counterfeiting thing." Zhu Youdong said: "We will do this ourselves in advance, if they want to make trouble, then we will take the opportunity to take the opportunity to serve them." If they follow the rules, it's not too late to come with them. ”

Hong Yuao said: "Master Hou wants to take over the affairs of Qianzhuang together?" Zhu Youdong said: "If we vigorously issue paper money, there must be exchange points for paper money and silver in the early stage, so that the people can freely exchange gold, silver and paper money." When the people see the treasure money in their hands, they can be exchanged for real money.

The people will be willing to accept the treasure money, so that we can promote the treasure money. But in the beginning, we needed a lot of gold and silver. If there were these banks, they would hide a lot of gold and silver, and if they did not recognize our money, it would be a big obstacle to our money. ”

Only then did Wang Jincai understand why Zhu Youdong let him stay alone to talk about this. Immediately said: "Master Hou, now that we have not been away from the prison country for a few days, we are afraid that we will not have time to make many bills." What's more, now that the army is distributed in three provinces, we can't send these bills over. ”
