Chapter 265: Statutory Holidays
These are all soldiers of the Aphar!
Because Li Chengji brought 20,000 recruits to train here, the small Amu City instantly became a large military camp. Although on weekdays, the soldiers of the camp are not allowed to leave the barracks at will. But every seven days, there is a chance to take turns out of the camp.
The brothels, taverns, and teahouses in Amu City have also grown like a blowout. In fact, in the apologetic army, there are military prostitutes. After all, people have seven emotions and six desires, and it is normal to have some needs. However, the number of military prostitutes was only about 100, which was a far cry from the number of soldiers.
In addition, for the sake of the health of the soldiers, there is a limit to the number of military and prostitutes who can receive them. And every once in a while, it is necessary to let the military doctor examine the body. As a result, the needs of the soldiers cannot be met from time to time.
Therefore, the brothel in the city has become the best supplement.
The Governor's Office allowed this. It's just that all brothels have to be reported to the corresponding yamen. Prostitutes and children should also be registered. And it was stipulated that every half a month, he had to go to the Tai Hospital directly under the Governor's Mansion for a physical examination.
Only those who are healthy will be allowed to continue to pick up customers.
In the area under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Palace, eight hospitals have been built. The first was Balasagon! This was followed by the city of Ke Umbrella and River Medium. The three cities of Puhua, Naheishabu, and Amu are also on the right track.
Because Puhua is the seat of the Governor's Palace in Khorasan, the development of Puhua Tai Hospital has surpassed that of the earliest established Balasagon Hospital. Both in size and in terms of healers, they are much larger than Balasagon .
With the inclusion of the four counties of Khorasan under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Palace, at least four hospitals will be added in the coming year.
It is also thanks to Li Chengji's support for Renxintang in the early years, many young boys and girls have been bought into Renxintang to study medicine.
After so many years of study and cultivation, they have been able to stand alone.
It's just interesting that Li Chengji originally thought that those female doctors practicing medicine might be boycotted by public opinion. As a result, the opposite is true, and female healers are unusually popular. Especially the female dependents of wealthy families tend to seek medical treatment from female doctors.
In the end, this era is still relatively traditional. If a woman encounters any gynecological disease, she is often hindered by unspeakable concealment and delays diagnosis and treatment. Now that there are female doctors, some private words in the boudoir that are not easy to say are much easier to say.
However, Renxintang did not decline with the construction of Tai Hospital. It's just that it has changed from the previous medical hall to a pharmacy, and has become one of the leading pharmacies in Daliao. There are many drugs with good efficacy, which are only available in Renxintang.
Of course, this is because the prescription is from Lee Seung-ji! Except for him, no one else can think of it if they want to break their heads.
In addition, Li Chengji also used his dividends in Renxintang to build a Tai Medical College. The students of the inner circle, regardless of race, regardless of grade. As long as you pass the entrance exam of Tai Medical College, you can enter the school.
In view of this era, most people are illiterate. The School of Medicine is more about testing students by asking questions face-to-face.
At present, the first Tai Medical College has been built in Puhua, and the first admission examination will be announced next year.
It's just because of the cold weather in winter. The Department of Rites and Religion, which is in charge of this matter, has not yet had time to Zhang Luo. Therefore, not many people know about it.
But that's all for later!
When the cathars on the street took a look and came across rare goods, they decided to buy them. It's also the end of the year! Although their families are all in Puhua and Naheisa counties, it is not in the way to buy some New Year's goods first.
However, this Spring Festival is a festival for the Han people!
Li Chengji's bloodline, although he is not a pure-blooded Han Chinese. But in the depths of his soul, he considers himself a Han man with good roots. Therefore, in the territory under their control, the Spring Festival will be fully promoted.
Although many people still do not understand the significance of the Spring Festival, the fact that the commercial houses sold commercial goods at a large price under the 'initiative' of the Governor's Palace still made them understand that it was a good day.
Not only that, but the Lantern Festival was also included in the scope of clear vacation by Li Chengji. There are also Islamic Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, and Holy Days. Finally, the Puritans defeated Khorezm and established the Apologetic Feast.
This is the most important festival after the Spring Festival.
It's just that the Ministry of Rites promulgated it late, and next year, the Governor's Palace will preside over a series of celebrations.
At this time, in front of a jewelry store on the street, Zhu Qing was looking at a gold ribbon. As if he liked it very much, he tied it to his forehead with a brisk movement.
"Young Master! What do you think of this headband? Zhu Qing bowed slightly, with a slight blush on his face. This is one of the favorite decorations of Muslim women and children, and eighty percent of women and children wear them in Puhua Land.
However, some people from prominent families wear Oleye-style headbands. It is inlaid with precious stones, which is completely different from ordinary gold wire headbands.
Li Chengji looked at it fixedly for a while and shook his head.
Zhu Qing's face darkened, and then he put the headband back. The shopkeeper observed the words and looked at the work well, and immediately said: "The small shop has a better headband, and I guarantee that you are satisfied." βγ
Li Dali, who followed Li Chengji, immediately said loudly: "Young master, we've been out for some hours!" βγ Today coincides with the Apologists' holiday! After nearly half a month of training, 80 percent of the officers and men were allowed to leave the camp today.
Therefore, the street market is unprecedentedly hot and noisy.
Li Chengji has also been staying in the barracks, eating and living with the soldiers and training. This is a big break, so I was pulled out by Zhuqing to take a walk.
I have to say that women's enthusiasm for shopping is really natural. Whether it is ancient or modern, they can't suppress their desire to buy.
Especially if it's not bad for money!
Zhuqing knew that Li Chengji was rich, so he naturally bought whatever he saw. Only then did I visit six stores, and the guards who accompanied him already had a package in their hands.
Hearing Li vigorously urging Li Chengji to go back, Zhu Qing's face instantly turned unsightly. It's also hard to come out and see, so I don't want to go back so hastily. Then he said in a bad tone: "Vigorously! Why are you so anxious? βγ
The relationship between Zhu Qing and Li Chengji is particularly close, and everyone knows about it in the Governor's Mansion. Li Dali, as the earliest group of people who followed Li Chengji, is also relatively familiar with Zhuqing. It is also natural to understand a thing or two about its temperament.
Hearing Zhu Qing's questioning, Li Dali didn't dare to choke. I have to be a little embarrassed: "There are many people here, and I am afraid that evil people will have bad intentions, which is not good for the young master." βγ They were in a jewelry store, and people came and went from time to time.
Although most of them were soldiers in armor, there were still quite a few people dressed in various costumes. There are a mixture of fish and dragons, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. If someone does evil, Li Dali and them will have a lot of trouble protecting them.
Although Zhu Qing is unhappy in his heart, he is not an unreasonable person. Hearing this, he immediately hesitated a little. In her heart, though, she still likes to go shopping a little longer. But Li Chengji's safety was even more critical, so he said impatiently: "Young master! Let's go back! In the future, when I am free, I will come out with the young master. βγ
"Hehe... It's all over, so naturally I want to go shopping more. Li Chengji said disapprovingly. In his opinion, in this winter, there are not many foreign business trips in Amu City. And in the market, you can see apologetics buying goods everywhere.
Even if someone wants to be unfavorable to themselves, they have to weigh one or two. Then he asked rhetorically: "Vigorously! But I believe you can keep me. Do you not believe that you have this power? βγ
"It's notβit's not! Young Master--Subordinate--", Li Dali said urgently.
"That's good! Let's keep shopping! Without waiting for him to finish, Li Chengji turned around and picked out a headband studded with gems.
"The guest officer is really eye-catching! This is a product from Kufa, and this store is the only one. When the shopkeeper heard Li Dali and others call Li Chengji, they knew that he was a rich son. Goodbye, his complexion is ruddy, his bearing is extraordinary, and he is even more affirmative. took out the best goods in the store and let Lee Seungji choose.
It is also the headband of Kufa, which has always been the most famous. During the time of the Harun Caliphate, the ladies of the dignitaries of the empire were proud to have the headband of Kufa. The famous Ole leaf headband is modified from the Kufa headband.
If it weren't for the fact that Princess Oleje was Harlan's sister, she might not have been so highly sought after.
Now, due to the war, the fame of Kufa's headband has gradually declined. But its exquisite craftsmanship has been passed down in Egypt, Fars, Damascus and other places.
Zhu Qing's eyes also lit up, obviously extremely excited. Li Qi weighed a little bit in his hand, and then tied it for her with his own hands.
"Wait!" , an unkind voice sounded, with a strong sense of command.
