Datang Imperial Physician

Chapter 283 Cruel Reality

Chapter 283 Cruel Reality (Ask for a Monthly Ticket!!)
The candidate for the post of medical officer was finally decided to be Xiao Yu, an old man of noble birth, hard work, high morals, and a long history of ups and downs in the officialdom, and also a stubborn old man.Although he didn't care, Wei Jia still had a headache when he heard about this candidate.What kind of thoughts does His Majesty Li Er have, to send such a person to beat him up, to torture Xiao Yu or to torture him? !Wei Chi watched the ministers discussing with cold eyes, and did not express his opinion.

After confirming the candidate, Wei Jia devoted himself to the vigorous preparations for the medical school.In the past, I saw that others were very leisurely as the principal, but it was my turn to play in person. I didn’t know the pain. Fortunately, there are also medical schools in later generations to learn from him. From the actual situation, it seems to be preparing for a medical school.

Wei Zhi guessed that the progress of the project was almost done, so he ran to the school slowly to have a look. As soon as he entered the door, he was pulled over by a familiar prison officer with a sneaky look.Wei Chi was taken aback for a moment, and followed him, shrinking his neck, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Master Wei, a fierce old man came here just now. He said his name is Xiao Yu, and he is your deputy. We, Lord Yan, were called in to give a lecture. He told his subordinates to wait and remind you."

Wei Chi grimaced, and said, "Thank you, I see."

After dismissing the small officials, Wei Jia slowly walked into the newly added office. Most of the people in the medical school today are generals who are familiar with Wei Jia. These people, no matter they met on the road, Or else, looking at Wei Chi's expression, there is only one thing - sympathy!Wei Chi felt chills while watching, is the future too dark? !

With complicated emotions, Wei Jia entered the office, and as soon as he entered, he saw an old man with a snow-white beard and a wrinkled face sitting high, and Yan Lide sat at the bottom with a serious face.

Wei Jia smiled and cupped his hands: "The two adults have worked hard, Mr. Xiao, right? This is the first time I have met Wei Jia, and I will work with Mr. Xiao in the future. I will ask Mr. Xiao for advice in the future."

The old man Xiao was reading the rules and regulations compiled by Wei Chi. Hearing the words, he raised his head and replied lightly, "Master Wei is serious. You are the sacrificial wine of the medical school. What orders do you have from now on? Just say yes, please sit down, Mr. Wei." .”

Wei Chi was not too polite, sat down in his seat, and chatted with Yan Lide to learn about the progress of the project. It was almost completed, and even the details of the window carvings had been done.Wei Chi said: "I've heard for a long time that Master Yan is good at painting, could you please help me to draw a few paintings?"

Yan Lide said: "It's Yan's honor that Mr. Wei can appreciate Yan's paintings. I don't know what is Mr. Wei's request?"

Wei Chi thought for a while, and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Yan to help draw a few figure paintings. Famous doctors of the past, such as Shennong, Hua Tuo, and Bian Que, presented them in the Hall of Famous Doctors for future generations to look up to and study. Those who study medicine must know These are the people who contributed to the development of medicine, right?"

When the medical school was being established, Wei Chi planned it.From the gate to the wall of the teaching area, the inmates are asked to draw portraits of famous doctors of all ages on the wall, and briefly indicate their contributions to the development of medicine.A hall of famous doctors was established to enshrine the portraits and memorial tablets of the names of the past dynasties, in accordance with the current customs of the Tang Dynasty, to express the respect of the latecomers to the sages.What Wei Chi asked Yan Lide to paint was the one used by the Hall of Famous Doctors.

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhi turned to Xiao Yu: "Master Xiao, do you agree with this arrangement? If you have other ideas, please speak up, and we will do the work of the medical school well together."

Xiao Yu said lightly: "Master Wei is good to make up his mind. The old man is a Confucian student, and he is not proficient in medicine. He is only in charge of internal affairs when he takes office as a medical officer. For affairs outside the scope of internal affairs, Lord Wei is the chief sacrificial wine. Lord Wei makes decisions. That is, don’t worry about the old man.”

Wei Chi smiled, raised his eyebrows, smiled and said nothing, turned to Yan Lide, and continued to discuss some details.

The departments of the School of Medicine are currently divided into three major departments, the Department of Medicine, the Department of Pharmacy, and the Department of Nursing.Surgery, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Gynecology, etc. are all included in the Department of Medicine, and medicine, dispensing, and pharmacy are all included in the Department of Pharmacy.

The teachers of the college are either famous doctors invited from all over the world, or the former professors of medicine merged directly from the Imperial College, so there is no need to worry about the lack of teachers.Wei Zhi even arranged a medicine garden for the students of the Department of Pharmacology, so that they can grow some herbs by themselves, which makes learning more intuitive.All the ideas are beautiful, but when recruiting students, they encountered an unexpected situation - insufficient students.

These days, illiteracy is everywhere. Those who can read are few, and those who can receive systematic education are even rarer. They are all rich or expensive. How can these people lack doctors, and how can they want to come to learn? medical.Most of the applicants are from poor families who don’t know big characters, so how can they study medicine? !
The entire recruitment process was over, and only a mere 200 students were recruited among the qualified students, among whom more than 100 were servants from various prefectures who came for supplementary subjects such as foot bath and massage; Wei Zhi counted those who really wanted to be doctors, and there were only 31 of them.There were more than a hundred foreigners who wanted to apply, but Wei Chi stopped him and declared that the medical school had just been established and would not admit foreign students.Wei Chi, Ding Shoucheng, Xiao Yu and other professors gathered together in the conference room to discuss the issue of student resources.

Wei Jia laughed at himself and said: "It seems that I expected the future too well, and it was my fault. I forgot that this is Datang, and doctors rank among the workers, after the peasants."

Ding Shoucheng said: "Over the years, most of the students in the medical department of the Imperial College are foreigners. I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, study medicine, and I hope there are not many scholars. This is a fact, and Master Wei does not need to blame himself."

Wei Chi smiled.Ever since the imperial court started to recruit scholars, people all over the world have gone to high officials and generous salary, thinking that it is better to glorify the lintel, glorify the ancestors, make meritorious deeds, join the army or go to school than to be a doctor.The status of a doctor is just like that of a craftsman, a scholar, a farmer, a businessman.

"Or, let's recruit some foreign students."

A professor suggested it.Wei Chi pondered for a while, and said: "This year is not enough, we will talk about it next year. The medical school has just been established, and all the systems are still being tested. We will talk about it after a year of trial implementation. We will teach as many as we recruit. Things always have a development process. Let’s teach the first batch of students well first.”

After finishing speaking, Wei Jia paused, and said: "The question of the source of students, let's decide first. Next, let's talk about the subsidy. Lord Xiao, please show your plan for everyone to see."

The students these days are happy. The imperial court will give a certain amount of subsidies to the students who go to the Imperial College, so that the students can basically maintain a decent life and let the students concentrate on their studies.This welfare measure is also available to foreign students.After the establishment of the medical school, Wei Jia specifically talked about this issue, and His Majesty Li Er was so entangled by him that he had no choice but to agree to him one by one, asking him to convene people to discuss a specific amount, and then the Ministry of Households would allocate the money.This question belongs to the category of internal affairs and is left to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu took out his plan and said, "The imperial court subsidy is 300 Wen per person per month for the students of the Imperial College. According to this example, the old man booked a monthly subsidy of 100 Wen for each student of the medical school. Professor..."

Wei Zhi listened to Xiao Yu's words, and the more he listened, the more wrong he became, and the more he frowned, he couldn't help interrupting him: "Please wait a moment, Mr. Xiao, why did I hear something wrong? The subsidy, whether for teachers or students, is two times less than that of Guozijian, and only one third of others?"

Xiao Yu said seriously: "Master Wei, you just said that scholars, farmers, and businessmen rank first among scholars, and third among workers. How can the medical school compare with the supervising students of the Imperial College? It is His Majesty's mercy that the imperial court can allocate subsidies. , We, as ministers, have to share the worries and labors for His Majesty, how can we add trouble to His Majesty, we should reduce it on the basis of the Guozijian's supervising students."

Wei Chi was dumbfounded, and said: "Then your subsidy is twice as much as that of your colleagues, and it is also for this?"

Xiao Yu said as a matter of course: "It's natural, the old man is a dignified Confucian student, and he has a reputation. Lord Wei, you have a lord awarded by His Majesty. Although you come from a humble background, you should be more than the old man now."

If possible, Wei Chi would like to take off his shoes and throw them on Xiao Yu's wrinkled face!What nonsense are you talking about!
Wei Zhi was patient and said: "Master Xiao, I remember that I reminded Master Xiao before I made this sketch. Our medical school requires a lot of equipment due to subject restrictions. When applying for subsidies, please apply for more. .Master Xiao still remember?"

Xiao Yu said: "Of course, the old man will not forget Master Wei's explanation, and has added 50 Wen as appropriate."

I really want to hit someone!

Wei Jia scanned all the people in the hall. Except for his objection, none of the others said a word. It really makes people want to be angry.

Wei Zhi said: "Master Xiao, one must have a lot of practical experience as a basis for medicine. It's not like Guozijian, which only needs to study. Medicine also needs practice. The level of medical skills has a lot to do with the amount of practical experience. For example, the Department of Pharmacy For students, identification of herbs is the basis. Where do herbs come from? Of course, they have to buy them; for students who study medicine, they also need a lot of herbs for them to practice and operate in order to make medicines. All of these require money. Medicine The cost of the court is only a lot more than that of the Guozijian. Please Master Xiao to make a new play, and the standard of subsidy is the same as that of the Guozijian plus 100 Wen."

Xiao Yu resolutely said: "I don't agree with this old man! How can a craftsman be as high as a scholar! Then where does this old man put his face?"

Wei Zhi stared at old man Xiao, his head was full of horrible bloody images, he kept calm on his face, and said: "Whether you agree or not is not decided by you and me, but by your Majesty, Zhongshu and others. The work you have to do It is to cooperate with my work and manage the medical school well."

Xiao Yu said with emotion: "This old man can't do anything that violates his principles and conscience. 100 Wen per person per month is the highest, and there is absolutely no possibility of negotiation."

Dead old man!

Wei Chi gritted his teeth with hatred, and tried to keep a smile on his face: "Since Mr. Xiao said so, it seems that the two of us cannot reach a consensus, and we can only leave the matter to the higher authorities to decide."

Xiao Yu said: "It should be like this."

The topic was put on hold, and Xiao Yu insisted on not changing it, so Wei Jia had to write another copy of the play, and handed in the two copies together, and handed it over to the household department for discussion.

After the Shuzuo was handed in, Wei Chi went home humming angrily.As the weather gets warmer, Xie Jiu's small tree house has been completed. She spread the bear skin made by Da Hu and Er Hu in the tree house, and drew two sketches and still life paintings by herself with great interest. Hang it up, and nail a few small wooden tables on the wall to place books and other sundries.In order to avoid mosquitoes and other small insects, food is strictly not allowed in the tree house.The whole decoration style... can only be described as very modern, warm and elegant.

There are specially made wooden ladders up and down the tree house, and Xie Jiu also took a rattan basket.Every day when she wanted to go up, she asked Zhaodi to go up first and hang the Qilin twins up, while she climbed up the wooden ladder slowly.Then the mother and son were three, and the two little ghosts were crawling around in the wooden house and having fun. Xie Jiu was watching, reading a book or doing something else. When tired, the mother and son took a nap together. It was a relaxed and freehand style, which made Wei Jia, a guy who was so busy working in the medical school, his eyes were red with envy, and he yelled that the same people are not the same, God is not fair.

When he got home and saw no one in the house, Wei Jia changed his clothes directly and climbed to the tree house.Going up to look, the mother and son are indeed there, and there are two more people today - Gao Yang and Niu Niu.

"Back?" Xie Jiu asked with a smile.Gao Yang and Niuniu hurriedly saluted: "Master."

Wei Zhi waved his hands casually, climbed up and then fell down without image, and said angrily: "That difficult old man, I'm about to die of anger!"

Xie Jiu also knew what had happened in the past few days. Wei Jia had told her, smiled slightly, put down the book in his hand, and said, "What did Master Xiao do to make you so angry?"

Wei Chi sighed, waved his hand, and said, "Don't mention it, I won't mention work when I get home, or I will age prematurely! Please help me, madam, I have lost a lot of hair recently. Is it going to be a mid-life crisis and become bald?" gone?"

Before Xie Jiu could speak, Niu Niu who was at the side had already burst out laughing, while Gao Yang was full of contempt.Wei Chi sighed again, looked at his hands, and murmured: "I really want to hit someone! Gao Yang, you are familiar with the law, come and tell Master, if I throw my shoe in the face of old man Xiao Yu, will it be against the law? "

Gao Yang was taken aback, and looked at Xie Jiu, who shook his head with a smile on his face.Gao Yang said: "It's not a serious crime, I think you will be scolded by the emperor, and you will be punished with a stick. However, Master, Min'er is afraid that old man Xiao will not be able to bear it, if...you will kill someone to pay for it."

Wei Chi said with a full face of thought: "This method is good. In ancient times, Zhuge Liang angered Zhou Yu to death, and now Wei Chi angers Xiao Yu to death. Maybe it will last forever and solve my current troubles. It is a good method, a good method! "
