Break out of the courtyard

Regarding Zhang Heping's doubts, female accountant Dao Meijuan hurriedly explained:

"Director Zhang, Grandma Li is a doctor sent to the countryside to train health workers, not decentralized."

"Don't be nervous!" Zhang Heping said with a smile: "I'm just curious why she doesn't have a salary."

"Grandma Li is a doctor at Modu Hospital, and her salary was sent to her after being paid by Modu."

"Where is the food supply?" Zhang Heping frowned and asked, "Is it because we are sending nationwide food stamps?"

"Ok!"

Hearing the affirmative answer, Zhang Heping smiled, "If Dr. Li wants to exchange for food in the future, I will use my supply to exchange it for her. The national food stamps will be kept in the hospital's account. Whoever wants to go on a business trip or study in the future will exchange the national food stamps for her." Go out, lest you seek help from strangers."

"Director, your food supply has been changed. What do you eat?"

What to eat?

For dinner that day, Zhang Heping let them know what to eat in the cafeteria.

"It smells so good! Master Zhu's skills have improved! What's delicious tonight?"

"How do you like boiled fish fillets, steamed fish fillets, blanched cabbage, and fish soup?" Zhu Fang, the canteen cook, said with a smile.

"It's so spicy! Grandma Li, don't eat this boiled fish fillet, it's too spicy!" After the day shift nurse Wang Min finished speaking, she hurriedly scooped up the fish soup to drink.

Chen Xue, a female doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department, said dissatisfied: "Master Zhu, you are a county magistrate and it is better to be in charge now. A logistics director will bring out your housekeeping skills!"

"Dr. Chen, the dish today was not cooked by me. It was cooked by our director himself. He also caught the fish in Cangjiang River himself."

Dean Zhong Tao looked around, adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, frowned and asked, "Where is Xiao Zhang?"

"I know! I know!" Wang Min, the day shift nurse, hurriedly put down the soup bowl. "I saw him pushing his bicycle and talking to Maya Daiyanba at the door of the hospital, and he rode the bicycle to Maya Daiyanba. Drive away."

"Dean, our director said that our food is too bad. He will go hunting tonight to improve the food. If he comes back late tomorrow morning, he asked me to ask for leave." Canteen cook Zhu Fang explained with a smile.

……

Zhang Heping is not just hunting or trying to please the hospital employees.

He was building up the prestige of his new unit so that he wouldn't have to be chased for explanations when he was out for a long time.

As for sending the old Dai doctor from Yanba home, I just wanted to meet him on the way and find out if there were any local products to sell in his village, so that they could sell them directly to the hospital canteen.

After all, he is nominally in charge of logistics.

Zhang Heping also bought some bamboo by the way and paid Mao Duoli from the village where the Yanba Dai doctor was located to take it to the hospital. This was his first business, and he was not afraid of not having his second or third business.

And those bamboos are what Zhang Heping plans to use to build the bamboo canopy corridor and the rain shelter that connects the back door of the hospital and the brick dormitory building, so as to avoid using umbrellas in and out during the rainy season.

The remaining bamboo will be used to weave bamboo chairs and stools when available.

Early the next morning, Zhang Heping stood guard outside the county party committee compound. When the day shift nurse Dao Yuzhu came out, Zhang Heping handed over a straw rope and said, "Sending Director Dao and Director Li, can Shaoduoli help me send them in?"

Two pheasants were tied under the straw rope. They were the live chickens that Zhang Heping caught last night, and they were still flapping their wings.

However, the second daughter of Deputy Director Daoshan's family was a bit crazy. She looked at Zhang Heping without blinking and did not see what was under the straw rope. I stupidly took it.

"I'm leaving first. The things in the back seat are too heavy to carry you." Before Zhang Heping could finish speaking, he had already run away on his bicycle.

This little girl, who is about to turn 17, has a chubby face and is quite well-behaved. Unfortunately, Zhang Heping got married too early.

This girl was met by the way when Director Daoshan brought Zhang Heping back to his house for dinner in order to persuade Zhang Heping to be transferred to the Educated Youth Office.

Zhang Heping suspected that the old boy Daoshan was using a honey trap on him!

But the reality is that the little girl Dao Yuzhu was fascinated by the tall and handsome Zhang Heping, which is hard to say.

Zhang Heping took the prey back to the canteen behind the hospital, and asked the cook Lao Zhu, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, to handle the prey. The fat meat was boiled in oil, the lean meat was rubbed with salt and air-dried to be smoked into bacon, and the fur was dried in the shade to be tanned.

Then, Director Zhang asked Dao Meijuan, the boring accountant in the charge room, to come over and record the accounts.

The meat money still has to be settled to Zhang Heping. Even if there is not much money in the hospital's account, the account must be settled clearly so that the money can be used well when the time comes to deal with the director who cannot afford to repay the money.

Afterwards, Zhang Heping went to deal with the bamboo and build an awning.

During lunch, Dean Zhong posed a problem to Zhang Heping. Grandma Li wanted to train the first batch of health workers for three years.

This old lady is carrying out the instruction of "graduate from high school and study medicine for three years."

A few years ago, the Ministry of Health was scolded by its leaders as the “Lao Ming Ministry”.

Immediately afterwards, there was a trend of students studying medicine going to the countryside.

But due to the lack of medical treatment, most people's enthusiasm did not last long.

In September this year, the price of medicines was reduced by about 9%, and the rural cooperative medical system, which includes one yuan for one-year medical insurance, was fully implemented, providing strong support for students studying medicine and going to the countryside.

This old lady probably wants to take advantage of this wave of policy support to train more health workers to solve some rural medical problems.

Unfortunately, now is not the time to teach students.

"Food and housing are a minor issue." Zhang Heping dismissed the logistical problem from Dean Zhong and solved it easily. "For food, the commune where the trainees are located can provide them with full-time rations. If they don't provide it, they will not be accepted for training."

"You can buy some bamboo for accommodation, and I will build a few bamboo buildings. It will last for three years."

"The problem is, the health schools have been closed, and it is very risky for us to train health workers." Zhang Heping held the rice bowl in his left hand and a piece of wild boar meat in the chopsticks of his right hand. He paused and said, "Maybe we will all lose it because of this." Work."

As soon as these words came out, Dean Zhong stopped talking, and so did everyone else. Only Grandma Li was still a little unwilling, "This is responding to the country's call!"

"The health schools are all closed!"

Zhang Heping retorted, and then thought that although the other party was stubborn, he came to the countryside out of good intentions. He couldn't help but change the subject, "Dean, instead of taking risks to help the village train semi-full-time health workers, we might as well recruit some medical students. Educated youths work as temporary workers in our hospital."

"The first is to increase production so that our hospital can treat more patients."

"The second is to examine whether these temporary workers have real skills. After Dr. Li's inspection for a few months, qualified temporary workers will be sent to the villages..." At this point, Zhang Heping stopped talking.

But when Dean Zhong looked over, Zhang Heping glanced at Dao Yuzhu who was smiling stupidly.

Educated youths have resettlement funds and half a year's resettlement food. If educated youths studying medicine can be trained within two or three months and then sent to various villages as semi-full-time health workers, most villages will be willing to accept such educated youths. .

As for those who don’t like it, just skip it…

Dean Zhong seemed to understand Zhang Heping's intention to change the concept of training, and nodded: "We are here to improve production. The leader said that no one can destroy production! I will ask about the temporary workers later, Xiao Zhang, as soon as possible Implement the Bamboo Tower.”

Zhang Heping said with a smile: "Dean, it's almost the end of the year, and the money in our accounts has bottomed out. You have to go to the leaders to cry for poverty and sell miserably to get more money, tickets, and materials for next year. Otherwise, there will be nothing to lose." The days of meat will not last long.”

"Got it!" After Dean Zhong said that, he immersed himself in eating.

Others were still reminiscing about Zhang Heping's conversation with the dean, but Zhang Heping had already finished eating and went out to continue building a rain shelter.

In the next few weeks, Zhang Heping would go out late and come back early, always bringing back prey, which made the cook Lao Zhu very happy.

In addition, the old Dai doctor in Yanba asked Mao Duoli in their village to bring a lot of bamboo and asked the accountant Dao Meijuan to settle the bill; it was Zhang Heping who lent the money to the hospital, causing the hospital to owe Zhang Heping more than 800 yuan. .

However, think about what Zhang Heping said, "If you don't return the signature signed by the dean, what are you afraid of?"

In this regard, Dao Meijuan has no pressure. She gossips with doctors and nurses all day long about how much Director Zhang has saved as a wife, and often teases Dao Yuzhu, the day shift nurse, about this.

October 10st, Friday, sunny

Dean Zhong found Zhang Heping who was busy handling bamboo at the back door of the hospital and said that he had contacted 108 educated youths studying medicine and asked Zhang Heping if he had any questions.
